Chapter 15 Perfume and Fresheners

Do you know what love is

Speaking of which, you are not a novice

Humans always judge people by their appearance

Are you going to do anything to make her happy? Dance? Play the guitar? Say sweet words? Oh, it seems that you are not well-versed

Cecilia may like a strong man. Don’t you really think about changing yourself for her longing?

“…”

Uriel wiped the cabinets clean with a headache, and the sound of the rag rubbing against the glass made people frown.

"Can't you shut up?" he said angrily. Although the object was a mysterious creature, he could not see what this guy would hurt him except for writing and drawing on the glass and causing trouble.

Maybe Gerson attacks the human spirit?

Call me Mr. Gerson, you annoying ghost!

"Don't make a sound, Sauron, Cecilia is asleep."

The apprentice scoffed at its angry brushstrokes, dipped it in a little hot water and wiped off the handwriting.

"By the way, why didn't you leave with... Bai? He forgot about you? Or was it too annoyed by you?"

Mr. Finger Ring was so angry that he was about to freeze the cabinet door shaft to give the ungrateful waiter a little color when suddenly a ringing sounded at the bar door.

Dingding Ding Ding...

Ginivar pushed open the bar door and heard the wind chime ringing on his head, and immediately froze.

Then she calmed down and looked forward, and the old but neat environment came into view: the dining room tabletops were covered with tablecloths and even flowers were placed. The young waiter wiped the cabinets behind the bar, but both the seats in front of him and the dining table were empty at the moment.

Uriel didn't expect that guests would come so early. Cecilia was hiding behind him and dozing off. The apprentice had to stand up a little, smiled and greeted, "Welcome to Knox Bar."

The guest was a lady wearing a black skirt with her feet on her feet. She was covered with a layer of black veil from head to toe, but she was scratched. She was barefoot and carrying a gray pocket. When Uriel saw that thing, her mind couldn't help but find a story about a witch that she had heard at the bedside as a child.

Maybe it's still a little bit... Uh, a triangle hat and a long-handled broom? Hell, where is there any witch in the world... The apprentice was stunned, and he suddenly realized that this was Knox. Maybe there would be a witch in Knox!

Uriel tightened the rag in his hand. Could this guest be a mysterious creature?

The black lady was startled by the ringtone, she closed the door and accelerated her pace. Before Uriel could observe carefully, she had already walked to the bar.

He sniffed, and it seemed a little itchy inside, so he asked quickly:

"What do you want to drink?"

Ginniva did not answer. She raised her hand and tweaked her veil back. The apprentice smelled a terrible scent. He felt himself fall into the pond of perfume in an instant, and his nose was filled with sticky powder and ointment. The instinct of survival made him tilt backwards with all his might to breathe smoothly.

Uriel dares to swear that the alcohol smells much better in the wine cellar than this aroma.

He could not tell at all what kind of flowers or spices it smelled, maybe wild roses, or lavender or lilies, or resin. In short, these things are mixed together, and people's sense of smell is no longer fragrant, but pure destruction.

This lady had just robbed a perfume shop and sprinkled all the spices she couldn't take away on herself, right? Why haven't the patrol teams arrested such an obvious target yet... Wait, no wonder she could escape, this smell could completely confuse people's sense of direction.

Uriel bent down and sneezes one after another, not caring about maintaining any service attitude in front of the guests. He was dizzy and his feet could not restrain themselves until he hit Cecilia's sleepy chair.

Sister Carrot mumbled, turned her head and buried her face in her hat.

After sneezing like this a few times and coughing for a long time, Uriel got rid of the scent. The apprentice barely raised his face and saw a thin layer of frost on the cup in the bar:

It seems that the lady's approach will make you feel uncomfortable. How did Cecilia like you?

Sauron wrote mockingly.

"I don't think this is my reason." Uriel retorted in a low voice, rubbing his nose and wiping away tears with his cuffs. Of course, this mysterious creature without a nose would not smell the scent of death. It was just a baseless and vicious speculation here.

The apprentice said with a tough bullet:

"Ms., did you overturn the perfume? The bathroom is on the left."

"Oh, yes, thank you very much." The guest put down the veil, but did not retreat. The smell faded a lot, but Uriel noticed that she had opened her pocket at some point.

The apprentice thought that he would see the spices that had not yet been sold, but was surprised to find that there were strange, slender cylindrical containers inside, and the seal was the cap of the perfume bottle.

But Uriel is not sure if this is perfume: they look dirty and old, and if any cosmetics store dares to sell it in such packaging, it will probably close within three days - the reason is fraud, because those things are no different from being out of futures.

Moreover, these containers are opaque, neither glass nor wood and stone.

Suddenly, Uriel heard a series of tiny icy sounds coming from the counter.

Why did that ring go crazy?

Ms. Black veil had no intention of moving, and the apprentice could not lower her head to look at Soren's handwriting. He couldn't help but reflect on whether he had described it clearly enough, but at this time the guest picked out one from the container in his pocket and shook it at him:

“Air Freshing Agent.”

Uriel didn't expect that she would carry this with her, so why didn't she go out and take a shower, but he couldn't care about so many others: "Thank you."

"You're welcome. Do you want to buy one? Just two gold coins." Ms. Hei Shiu took advantage of his silence and added: "Abi gold coins."

Even Black City gold coins will not be given to you... Ulier already knows the currency system of Pinia Io - Black City gold coins are the lowest currency, issued during the period when the Eastman Kingdom was just established, and the exchange rate ratio with Abi Gold coins was 001.

After becoming a vassal state of the Glorious Parliament, Eastman changed the regulations to unify his own monetary system with the entire Pinia Io continent. He only made a slight modification on his avatar and replaced it with the portrait of the current queen of his country.

After all, Knox has more than just humans, nor is it just a piece of Pinia Io, there is no saying that currency is unified here.

A bie gold coin can buy a whole bottle of Max meadow, while a black city gold coin can buy two dry bread. Now that bottle of air freshener costs two bottles of high-quality meadow, Uriel doesn't intend to pay for it, and it's not like this that the amount of gold coins is too much.

Then he realized that the other party was here to sell fresheners. However, letting himself pollute the environment first and then selling it was an idea that someone came up with. This is even more hateful than forcing a forced purchase and selling.

If you can't sell it, you'll cut the price!

"No need, thank you." The apprentice refused with a black thread. Looking at the lady's appearance, she was probably disappointed in other places.

Through the gauze, the guest's expression became worse. Ulier guessed that she must be very disappointed. But there seemed to be other emotions mixed in disappointment, but he couldn't see clearly.

Ms. Heiwei whispered to herself, and the apprentice didn't hear it very clearly: "This is God's gift..."

I also heard that God would give air freshener for the first time. Uriel secretly complained that he thought the other party might have some mental problems: Will normal people turn themselves into a corrupt flower and go to the street to sell deodorant?

"Then try it, no money." She finally said. Ginva felt a heartfelt regret for the young man opposite, and he had no idea what he had missed.

The apprentice realized that she had just had a glimmer of hope because of her attitude, so she agreed to her.

Ginniva raised her hand, and then Uriel noticed that her fingers were covered with a layer of withered gray, and her bones and joints were visible.

He couldn't help but sympathize with the lady. The other party was not old, but he still had to struggle on the brink of poverty and wandering.

Just because of sympathy, Uriel has no right to control the bar income. Just as he thought of this, he suddenly heard the crackling sound of shattering sounds from the cabinet, and quickly lowered his head - it was Sure enough, Sauron broke the cup!

Gaia is on top, is this considered to be my property in the bar?

At the same time, the apprentice felt a chill falling on his head. When he raised his head again in fright, he saw the black veil trembling with his hands retracting the container.

A faint golden mist filled the bar, and the lingering fragrance disappeared immediately.

Uriel was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that the thing was really useful. But even so, he had no intention of buying it. The apprentice saw the lady in black and took a few deep breaths. She waited for a few seconds and saw that Uriel had no change of his mind, so she walked out of the bar without saying a word.

It seems she was too disappointed.

Uriel shook his head and picked up the rag to wipe the water stains on his head. However, his tentacles were cold and were covered with fine ice crystals. He couldn't help but exclaim.

"You did a good thing, Sauron?" The light golden particles fell on the bar. However, the prank on his head was still a matter of things. When Uriel thought of the wine glass that was frozen by the ring, he felt a big head.

The glass in the cabinet was frozen again:

Idiot! You almost died!

"I was almost fumed to death by her perfume, can you smell this?"

Frost suddenly stopped moving, and it seemed that Sauron Gerson was shocked by his answer. But the silence lasted only for a moment:

Do you think I'm joking with you? The things in that woman's hand are very dangerous!

Danger?

Rumors about the witches popped up in Uriel's mind again, Cecilia's worried warnings were still in her ears. This was a mysterious and weird world - the apprentice was shocked.

The inertia of seventeen years of peaceful life made him not associate Ginva with the mystery for a while. When recalling it, Uriel couldn't help but sweat: "She... she is indeed a witch?"

Witch? She is still far from being a homeless man at most. The real danger is what she is holding

"What did she hold?"

I don't know. The characters' changes stopped for two seconds and began to move again: but as I approached her, I felt the vortex of magic—

If that thing enters your body, Uriel, you will ignite the fire

The apprentice stayed there.

"Ignite the fire...burn the soul?"

Yes. Although I really want you to be a mysterious creature, I respect your opinion. A wise man never force others to do so.

So invisible, Sauron wrote: Moreover, the ignition of fire requires a special environment. The biggest possibility of hasty progress is to turn the soul into ashes

That liquid is the magic potion that evokes the spontaneous combustion of fire

Uriel felt chills all over his body. He looked nervously at the shiny golden ice crystals on the bar, his hands and feet stiff: "Then... should I throw away these things?"

You can stay, and potions that can cause changes in the fire are not common

"But it's dangerous! I'm not safe to hold it..."

Idiot! You can give it to the mysterious creature, Bai and that druid are fine, isn't it good to exchange for something useful?

At Sauron's reminder, Uriel found an empty wine bottle of number and collected the ice crystal powder carefully.

Just as he covered the plug and was about to put the bottle properly in a place that was not easy to touch, Uriel suddenly realized something. He glanced at Cecilia, who was sleeping soundly, and came outside the bar quickly and lightly.

The apprentice thought that she had survived because of Sauron's help, but what about the others? How many shops did the woman in black veil go to?

Are all those who inhaled air freshener dead?

Fear hit his heart—
Chapter completed!
