Rise of the Dark Witch

"Change?" Roja blinked and asked doubtfully, "Are you talking about me?"

"That's right." Weiss nodded, "Compared to the first time we met, you haven't changed at all."

"We have only known each other for a few months, and nothing major happened during this period that could change a person's personality. It is normal that there is no change." Roja replied.

"That's not necessarily the case."

Weiss turned her head and looked at the moonlight outside the window and said faintly.

Seeing that Roja was silent and didn't answer, Weiss started talking to herself.

"That uncle named Long En was very easy-going when he first came here. Now he has become eccentric and behaves strangely. No one knows what he is thinking or doing."

"Leif's words...hehe, I can see that he hasn't drank the green essence for almost half a year, but he asked for more than the usage amount from grandpa. What do you think he is going to do?"

"As for Brand, who came with you, his irritable personality has become more and more explosive and irritable. Seven maids have died in his house, and no maid dares to continue to serve him."

“Not just the three of them, but those from previous years as well.”

Weiss sighed, "You are the only person I know of among so many people who can maintain the same temperament after undergoing the Green Grass Trial."

Roja's expression remained as usual, not affected by Weiss' words at all, "That's it."

Weiss suddenly put her hands on the table, leaned her upper body towards Roja, and her warm breath, smelling of alcohol and the fragrance of a girl from Finland, hit Roja's face.

"Hey, can you tell me why?" Weiss asked with confused eyes.

"What do you want to know?" Roja moved his chair and slightly distanced himself from Weiss.

"Why didn't you change like them? Why do you still look like an ordinary person? Instead of becoming more like a wizard?" Weiss asked.

"Why do you think a person's personality changes drastically in a short period of time?" Roja asked.

"Well..." Weiss rubbed her temples with both hands, unable to answer for a while.

"Generally speaking, it is because they have endured pressure beyond their psychological endurance. The Green Grass Trial has brought them great pain and pressure, so they have changed."

"Oh, so you're not stressed?"

"Yes, but it's not beyond my psychological endurance, and the impact is not big."

"Hehe, is that so? Master Luo Ya, you have a really strong psychological quality." Weisi laughed without knowing why, looking very happy.

"If any of the four of you can pass the wizard trial and become a wizard apprentice, I think that person must be you, Mr. Roja. Unfortunately, grandpa doesn't seem to think so."

"Why?"

"Because grandpa thinks you don't look like a wizard at all."

"Like a wizard?" Roja asked doubtfully.

"Yes, as mysterious as a wizard, so crazy, and so unscrupulous for the goal." Weiss nodded.

Weiss's stereotype of wizards left Roja speechless.

Wizard is just a profession and a title. Wizards have all kinds of weird personalities, and there are all kinds of people.

Just like a knight must be upright?

Thinking that wizards are mysterious and crazy is basically a prejudice against wizards.

Although Roja has not seen many wizards.

But Witch Doctor Barney and Paladin Sejie are both normal people, at least not crazy.

However, Roja did not discuss the topic of "what a wizard should be like" with Weiss.

Roya yawned.

"I didn't expect Miss Weis to think so highly of me, so I will accept your good advice." Roja covered the book and put it aside, preparing to continue reading tomorrow.

"Are you ready to rest?" Looking at Roja's movements, Weiss asked.

"Miss Weis, you have been away from the dance for almost an hour, right? If you don't go back, it will be bad for people to worry." Roya persuaded her kindly.

"Haha, don't be in a hurry." Weiss seemed to suddenly remember something interesting, and smiled: "Did you know? Someone was dueling for me at the dance just now?"

Weiss smiled contemptuously, "He started quarreling because of me, and inexplicably started a duel under the instigation of everyone, making it look like he could get me as long as he won. It's really speechless."

"They're obviously just two losers who can't even beat me!"

Weiss knocked on the table, "If Master Roya were here, you could hang them up and hammer them with one finger, right?"

Roja said modestly: "Not necessarily."

Weiss asked again: "To be able to embark on the path of a wizard, Master Roya, you must be very strong, right?"

Roja was still modest, "I can't say he's very strong, he's just strong enough to protect himself."

After Weisi stared at Roja with squinted eyes for a while, her expression gradually became serious, "When I was walking with my friends who came to visit at noon, I met you, Lord Roja, practicing under the waterfall."

"I have a friend who knows something about you and wants to ask you a favor."

"The help is actually very simple. I hope you can help kill a top-level monster."

Until this moment, Weiss finally revealed the true purpose of her trip.

Otherwise, a beautiful girl in her prime of fifteen or sixteen would sit in the library chatting with a strange man in the middle of the night instead of having a good dance?

"Isn't it an ordinary top-level monster?" Roja asked in a deep voice.

"It's the Wei Shen Terminal, which is 70 kilometers upstream from our Hain Port. A few months ago, a top-level monster, the Carp Snake, suddenly appeared and destroyed ships everywhere. The entire Wei Shen Terminal was shut down for several months, causing losses. heavy."

Weiss sighed, "Viscount Pekin from Wei Shen Pier has called grandpa several times, and today he came to visit again. I hope grandpa can help deal with the carp snake beast."

"But on land, it is also said that a top-level monster in the water, especially a carp snake beast with strong defense and extremely cunning, is too difficult to hunt."

"It's not that grandpa doesn't want to help, but he has sent people there several times but failed to hunt him down."

Weiss gently rubbed the hair on her forehead with her slender fingers, "There is really no other way but to wait for the wizard to come to hunt, but the wizard is very busy, and I don't know when I will be free to help."

After saying that, Weiss looked at Roja with sparkling bilingualism, "If it's you, Lord Roja, there must be a way, right?"

Roja didn't answer immediately. He lowered his head and tapped the table in deep thought.

Carpmon is a powerful monster that looks like a carp but has a slender body like a snake.

It has extremely defensive carp scales and an extremely cunning personality, making it very difficult to hunt.

It's okay if it's on land, but in the water...

Roja shook his head and refused in a helpless tone: "I am not a wizard yet. The only thing that is more powerful than other great knights is that my mental power is stronger. Since the strong men in Governor Craig's Mansion all use carp snakes, There is nothing the beast can do, and I can't change anything."

Weiss squinted her eyes, obviously not believing Roja's words.

"Master Luo Ya, if you think about it carefully, we will never let you work in vain. If you have anything you want, you can just tell us and we will try our best to satisfy you."

"oh?"

Roja was a little moved.
