Chapter 12 Bad Milk

Congratulations, you have learned 20% of the third level magic!

"Ha~" Werther fell on the bed exhausted. He practiced magic until seven in the morning and stayed up all night.

He has been practicing this level of magic for a week, and he can finally move ten meters in an instant. But he knows in his heart that he is still far behind. The true sign of learning the third level magic is that he can move five kilometers in an instant.

He felt dizzy at the moment, as if he was about to explode. He was so sleepy that he didn't even take off his shoes. He slowly rubbed his head on the pillow, grabbed the quilt to cover his upper body, and curled up.

Soon I fell asleep.

"Knock knock knock." There was a soft knock on the door.

Werther woke up with a start and forgot where he was for a moment. It took him a long time to remember that he lived in the castle.

"Who is knocking on the door so late?" Werther muttered, and after thinking for a while, he said, "No, knocking on the door so early."

"It's already two o'clock in the afternoon~ We called you for a long time in the morning and finally gave up." Lina's voice came from outside the door.

"I slept for so long, I thought I only slept for a few minutes."

Thinking of Lina's face, Werther suddenly became happy and opened the door with a smile.

"Witt, why did you wake up just now?"

Werther put his index finger on his lips and whispered: "Of course it was because of that incident that I practiced late yesterday."

"Actually, no one will dare to enter your room during the day. You can practice during the day without being discovered. In the worst case, I will help you guard the outside."

"Of course I know this, but I was so absorbed in practicing last night that I lost track of time."

"So that's it." Linna nodded and said.

"Lina, besides waking me up, do you have anything else to tell me?"

"Have you learned how to read minds? I do have something important to tell you. The granary has been built."

"So fast! Another problem has finally been solved." Werther smiled, "Lina, you did me a big favor this time."

"It would have been easy to build this granary. Ivan had already distributed the wages, and temporarily used the money in the castle's treasury to advance the payment, which is ten silver coins per person. But the money should have been taken from the treasury managed by the treasurer.

What's more, there isn't much money in the castle treasury, should we ask the treasurer to get the money back?"

"How much money is left in the castle?"

"There are now ten gold coins, twenty silver coins, ten copper coins and five iron coins left."

"Well, the castle really doesn't have much money left, so we must go to Colin for the wages."

"Shall Colin come to the castle?"

"He should be allowed to come, but I don't want to see him yet, so why not let this matter go for now," said Werther.

"Okay, let me help you tidy up your clothes. After you wash up, go and eat."

Lina stretched out her hand to straighten Werther's wrinkled clothes.

Werther looked at Lina who was working hard, and suddenly felt a little sorry: "Lina, you have helped me a lot during this time. I was thinking that Wile's health should have recovered. If he can get out of bed and do it,

If you live, you don't have to be a maid."

"You mean, you don't want me to continue to be your maid?" Lina put her hands on her chest, opened her mouth slightly, looking in disbelief, looking a little nervous.

This was the first time that Werther had seen her like this.

"I definitely want you to stay by my side, but not as a servant. It can be as a friend, or..." Werther explained

Shi Dao, but he did not say the word "lover" because he has no intention of falling in love yet.

"Witt, don't worry, these tasks are not difficult for me. Don't forget that I have my purpose, which is to help you. In this situation, it will be much more convenient for me to stay with you as a maid.

"

Werther sorted out Lina's daily schedule in his mind.

Under normal circumstances, she would not sleep at night. She would either go outside to do her own thing, or help Werther with some granary design work, and would have a meal in between. After dawn, she would wake up Werther and help Werther clean up the room.

, and then went back to his room to sleep until dinner time. After dinner, he began to spend the night again.

So, has Lina been waiting for me to wake up today? Isn’t she very sleepy now? I feel so sad!

"Lina." Werther turned around and said to Lina, "Go back to sleep."

"I've been suffering from insomnia recently, so I might as well concentrate on serving you today." Lina said lightly.

Insomnia? Why does Lina have insomnia? Is there something on her mind?

"Are you worried?" Werther asked with concern.

"What's on your mind?" Lina paused her movements for a moment, "Why do you ask that? But if you have to say there's something on your mind, it might be that one."

"Which one?" Werther felt his heart beat faster. He wondered if Lina would talk about feelings, and whether Lina and I's relationship would heat up again.

"Witt, why is your face so red!"

"Ah, it's nothing. What's on your mind?"

"I sent a letter to my family five days ago, but they haven't replied yet. I'm a little worried about their safety. According to common sense, their letter should have been sent."

Witte was surprised when he heard this: "Can I still send a letter from Daybreak Town to Brudin?"

"Of course. You can send it from Frank City, not to mention Dawn Town." Lina said calmly, "It's just that there are relatively few."

"I really gained a lot of knowledge!"

"Witt, you go have lunch quickly. I've also packed up and will go down with you." Lina gently pulled up Werther's sleeve, "If you don't eat, you might faint from hunger."

"How could I faint from hunger so easily? But, do you want to dine with me today?"

"A maid cannot dine with the lord, and I don't want to eat right now."

"It's okay to have a cup of tea together."

"Well, that should be fine, but I have to drink it standing up."

They went downstairs and found that Margery seemed to be much quieter today. She was sitting at the table drinking tea obediently. She had no intention of pestering Werther at all, which made Werther happy.

"Your Highness, I found a book about the history of the town. You can read it." Tom came over and handed over an old and yellowed book.

"Thank you, Uncle Tom. You are really thoughtful. I think I should know more about the town in order to run it well."

Then, Werther began to read the book so engrossed that he didn't even notice the lunch being brought to the table by the maids. Lina was holding a fork aside and bringing the lamb leg to his mouth.

Werther smelled the fragrance and couldn't help opening his mouth and biting the meat into his mouth.

"It turns out that Daybreak Town was just a pasture in the beginning! Then there were cultivated lands, and slowly villages and towns were formed, and the population increased to more than a thousand." Witte murmured to himself while reading a book.

Lina stuffed another piece of meat into his mouth.

"Thank you Lina."

Werther turned his head and saw Lina happily showing one of her big fangs.

"Wow! Lina, weren't your teeth the same as those of humans before? Why have they become longer?" Werther looked at it curiously.

"Huh? I accidentally elongated this tooth just now."

"Can it grow longer by accident?"

"Yes, after all, I am a vampire. I can still retract my teeth when you are not paying attention."

As she spoke, Lina's fangs instantly returned to the same size as human teeth.

"Huh? So amazing!"

"If you want to see it, I can conjure up two fangs for you at the same time and then retract them without you noticing."

"No, no need. I still want to read a book now. I remember that when Wil and I visited the farm last time, we saw the largest pasture in Daybreak Town, or in other words, the only pasture." Witte said to Lina, "Fortunately

It has not been destroyed by wild wolves, and there are many cows there."

"Oh, talk about the ranch, Werther, drink some milk."

Lina brought out a large bucket containing milk, opened the lid, and poured white milk into the cup in front of Werther.

"Wow, this is the first time I've drank milk since I came to Daybreak Town!" Witte was a little shocked, "But there is a ranch in this town, so why don't you buy milk on weekdays?"

"Tom just said this morning that he wanted us to buy you some milk to replenish your health, so I took over the job. Originally, Kath suggested that I buy it from a farmer who raises cows, but that farmer only raised one cow every day.

At most, they only sell a small bucket of milk, and the milk produced that day has already been sold. So I had no choice but to go to the ranch. There is a lot of milk in the ranch, so I bought two big buckets."

"That's strange, why doesn't Kath let you go to the ranch to buy it?" Werther asked in surprise.

"I want to know this too. I originally wanted to ask Kath today, but I didn't find a chance to ask her. She should be cleaning the kitchen now."

"However, after all, it is the milk produced by the only dairy farm in Dawn Town, so the quality is definitely not ordinary."

Werther stretched out his hand and took the cup from Lina's hand. The cup was small enough, and the milk in it went into Werther's mouth in one gulp.

"Pfft..." Werther spat out all the milk.

"The smell is really unusual, it's too smelly."

"Let me just say, you spent two iron coins, but for the price of one loaf of bread, you can buy two barrels of milk, which means the milk must not taste good."

"You know it's not good to drink, so give it to me?" Werther said aggrievedly.

"I wasn't sure before. And I haven't tasted it myself." Lina put her nose close and smelled it. "If I just smell it, there is no obvious abnormality. I will give it a try too."

Linna took out her cup, poured herself a cup and drank it in one gulp. Then she remained calm and just frowned.

"As you said, it tastes really bad. After all, this is the only pasture in Daybreak Town. Why does their milk taste so bad?"

"However, this is really unreasonable. This ranch can be said to be one of the most important places in Daybreak Town. How can it produce such unpalatable milk?"

At this time, Tom walked into the hall and heard their conversation.

Uncle Tom said: "Oh, the milk from the pasture is no longer suitable for drinking."

"Uncle Tom, why is this?" Werther and Lina asked in unison.

"I don't know the reason, I just know that in the past, there would be many customers queuing outside the ranch, but now, people would rather not drink milk than buy milk from the ranch."

At this time, the voice of the parchment sounded in Werther's ears: New mission, check the pasture.
