Demon Sage

Chapter 7

There are rows of shops around. Donald, walking on the right side of the street, is holding a cloth bag with books in one hand and weighing the remaining coins in his pocket in the other.

“It’s so expensive…”

It cost Donald 1 shilling to buy the book “Evil Banishment”, which is ridiculously expensive. When he learned the price, he even had a slight suspicion that the store manager was defrauding.

However, after seeing the exact price on the back of the book, he had to admit that what is rare is more expensive.

There are still about 15 shillings or so of the remaining money, which is given by Infinita this month, as well as previous savings.

For the ordinary person, as long as this money is saved, it can support two months of life, but in Donald’s eyes, this money is absolutely not enough, he has too many things to do .

Because he had other things to do, he didn’t stay in the bookstore for a long time, and he only drank half of the black tea that Kann Antoine brought.

In this limited time, he found out why the price of this book is so expensive.

The book “Evil Banishment” does mention the solution to dealing with demon possession or entanglement. This method is not as mysterious as imagined, and it can even be said that it can be done at any time, as long as there is money. …..

Church baptism!

It is mentioned in the book that any orthodox church will provide baptism for believers, borrowing the existence of Evil Banishment by the power of gods.

This kind of ceremony requires believers to pay a certain price. According to the ceremony purified by baptism, it has different price points and requirements. The book mentions Silvermoon Church, which has a parish in North Harkshire, and their internal ceremony. Baptism ceremony, the cheapest is 5 gold pounds… The most expensive can even reach nearly 100 gold pounds.

The effect is very good. It is said that as long as it is subjected to baptism, it is not only effective to exorcise evil, but even the lowest level of baptism, such as common colds, fever and other minor ailments will appear in a short time. For the better, as for the highest level of baptism, Donald didn’t dare to look down.

For Donald, who is currently an unemployed vagabond, the lowest baptism ceremony is a luxury, 3 gold pounds, he has to maintain a state of not eating or drinking under the premise of accepting Infinita for four months. accumulate.

And not necessarily useful!

Making money was suddenly the most important thing, not just for physical problems, but as a man of all limbs, Donald was grumpy about accepting help from his wife, especially her behavior under unknown premise.

So Donald went to the commercial street and paid attention to the job sign outside the shop. He needed a job to support his private activities while maintaining a normal life.

However, no matter where in the world, suitable jobs are not so easy to find.

Suitable for civilians, no professional skills are required, and wages are high. Does this kind of work really exist?

The content of his predecessor’s studies in the university was very professional, which means that after Donald graduated, the good jobs he could find were limited, and the professional counterparts included some primary level jobs in the church. Due to lack of memory, it is definitely not possible.

And those high-paying jobs that civilians can obtain, such as lawyers, government workers, etc., require a long period of professional knowledge study, and there is not so much spare time for Donald with zero foundation.

As for the last high-risk, high-reward certain jobs… all are recorded in the code, don’t say Donald has no way, even if there is, he would not dare.

The pub might be a good place to go.

Compared with other jobs, this job does not have high professional requirements. You can get in touch with people from all walks of life, and you can collect a lot of information. Besides, there should be tips in this era. Said, compared to the nearby clothing store or grocery store, an extra income.

With the mentality of trying, Donald came to the Oak Tavern on Letis Street, two blocks away from Iris Street. Unlike Gesang Street, this is a more entertaining neighborhood with several tavern and numerous Nightingale shops.

Happy Night, Beauty Hotel… The undisguised name of the shop, even though it is morning, there are still several shops with their doors half-open.

The Oak Tavern is the largest shop on the street. Above the door is a piece of wood hanging on an iron shelf, carved with a brown oak fruit.

Standing outside, you can see a few scattered customers sitting in the tavern. The waiter with his sleeves up is sweeping the masonry floor, sprinkling some water from time to time to press down the dust, and standing behind the bar is a thin man. A tall man, beardless white face, is wiping his glass intently.

He lowered his head and straightened his clothes, and took a photo in the window next to him, confirming that he had a good image. He was so handsome that he was more than enough to be a bartender, right?

“Sorry, Mr. Grant, we don’t have a shortage of people right now, in fact, if you came here three days early, I would sign you without the slightest hesitation, you know, we’re around here There are many Nightingale shops, and the ladies in them can’t resist a youngster like you, but I can’t dismiss the new waiter. We signed a contract for half a year. Whoever breaches the contract will have to pay a penalty of 1 pound. It’s not a small amount.”

Donald can only accept the reply given by the store manager, his image may be good, but it will not make the store manager spend an extra 1 gold pound in liquidated damages, a new waiter It’s only been three days since I started working, and I haven’t done any work yet.

Give someone 1 pound for no reason? The store manager said it would be heart-wrenching for several nights.

“Well, it seems that my luck is not very good…bye.”

Not here, you can only try one’s luck elsewhere.

“Hey, Mr. Grant, don’t you know? Our Oak Tavern is an intermediary. Can you see the square wooden token over there? The paper attached to it is a message from some people. , recruiting, entrusting… There are many good jobs, such as Mr. Laudiff in Meizi Lane, who found a clerical job here, with a monthly salary of 2 gold pounds!”

The pub manager He spared no effort to recommend his own notice board. It was the idea that his wife came up with. As long as you pay 5p, you can post your own requirements on the notice board. There is a lot of traffic in the tavern. Announcement on the street is obviously much better.

Donald’s footsteps turned back again, and now he has no goals anyway, and it doesn’t take much time to see.

The area of the notice board is about one square meter, it is close to the wall, the height is at the position of the ordinary person’s chest, and there is a cloth strip with black font on it: If you have no intention, please do not touch!

The house is leaking and needs the help of a worker with experience in repairing roofs. Pay: 6p.

Looking for the cat, the cat in the house was lost. The last time I saw it was on Gesang Street. The coat was pure white, with a handful of pale-gold miscellaneous hair on the forehead. Salary: 5 shillings.

Barn handling, the barn on the farm needs someone to help carry the grain bags, manual work, requires an adult man, salary: 1 shilling.

……

My eyes are wandering on these posted notices, he can’t repair the house, the barn is always no problem, and there are other physical strengths Working, you can also earn some money, but the pay is not high. In this era, physical labor is considered to be something that people at the bottom of the world can do. Even if the gentlemen die of starvation, they will not take off their vests and roll up their sleeves to carry grain bags.

Donald didn’t take this into consideration. After all, the education he received was different, and labor is the most honorable, even more how. Now is not the time to care about other people’s eyes.

“Mr. Grant, have you found a job you like?”

The store manager is holding glue and paper. This is a new commission. Donald takes a step aside and looks at Follow him to post and read the above.

“Assistant recruitment, the firm needs a certain level of education, active thinking, can classify and extract information from some criminal cases, weekly salary: 1 gold pound!”

Blink With two eyes, Donald repeatedly confirmed that the two words before the 1 gold pound in the remuneration was the weekly salary, not the monthly salary.

“It’s a good job, isn’t it? Just look at the content.”

Noticing Donald’s surprise, the store manager took the notice and confirmed it. Take out a palm-size piece of paper, which is a supplement to the recruitment of assistants: For those who are interested in recruiting assistants, there are preconditions, translate the following words…

“This is a The ancient text, the client said that only those who have studied in this area can understand the meaning of these sentences, and that is the assistant he is looking for.”

The place of the manager’s finger is A piece of black text or symbol, Donald’s eyes focused.

He knows the meaning of this sentence, the source is not the memory of the predecessor, but another existence!

“Given by the gods, born with it.”

The meaning of the text symbol was read softly. For the first time, Donald felt that the memories of the demon that tormented him were still somewhat beneficial. The advantage is that for some words that the ordinary person can’t understand at all, he can instantly know the meaning.

“What did you say?” X2

The manager looked towards Donald in surprise. He seemed to hear the strange words from the youngster’s mouth. At the same time, behind the two of them, There is also a crisp sound.

“The meaning of this sentence is: God-given, born with it. Can I take this job?”

Repeat this sentence again, Donald reaching for it I took off the newly glued commission, but was subconsciously stopped by the store manager.

“Mr. Grant, this is a job entrustment and requires integrity. If you are just trying casually, I suggest that it is better not to tear off this entrustment.”

The man in front of him is too young Now, he is a person who needs to find a low-level job like a waiter in a tavern. The store manager doesn’t think Donald can interpret this text correctly. stop.

“He’s right, that’s what he meant…exactly!”

Before Donald could explain, the voice behind them confirmed Donald’s translation, in a raised tone, with a little surprise.

The commission that was just released has found the translator so smoothly. Is today his lucky day?
