saw her close friend Teresa at another corner of the tower.

“They’ve left in the full stomach of a pet my friend raised.
I think they should be dead.
Not to mention corpses, their souls might also be completely devoured.”

Joshua touched the imprint on his palm.
The Duke of Bones has been very pleased with the ‘rations’ Joshua has been providing those undead.

The undead Duke possesses a deep hatred for the Heresy Tribunal.

“As for the mages that came to your rescue…”

Joshua swept his finger toward the air.
He didn’t need to explain anything.
All the people that use the magic network were able to understand that gesture.

Cheryl immediately signed into the Mage Forum.
After browsing the posts from several sub-forums, she found a post with a title mentioning her on ‘Daily Discussions.’

The people replying to that post were all asking about how ‘Skotan Nun’ was doing.

Reading the replies, Cheryl didn’t know how to reply to them.
In the end, she expressed her thanks to them and added ‘I will immediately write out the latest entry to the diary!’

After doing that, Cheryl began to examine her body.
Her wounds had completely healed.
Not even a scar was left behind.
Most terrifying of all, even her internal organs and shattered ribs were restored.
It was as if time had reversed on her.

“It’s Desireless who healed me…”

In the entire city of Norland, the only person Cheryl knew to possess such powerful healing magic was Desireless.

At this moment, Cheryl entered a moment of silence.
Sitting on the bed, she held onto her legs with her hands and stared at the Mage Forum before her eyes.

She and Teresa had managed to successfully escape from the Heresy Tribunal.
But… what now?

No matter where she hides, the Heresy Tribunal would not let go of her, a traitor… Furthermore, she had no experience with living a normal life.
She had no way to earn a living for herself.
Even finding a place to stay would be very difficult.

At the moment when Cheryl was being perplexed by those problems, Joshua placed a sack of gold coins before her.
It seemed like there were over a dozen gold coins in that sack.

“A demon’s… transaction?”

That was the first thought that came to Cheryl’s mind.

“A reader’s tip.”

As Joshua looked at this impoverished author lady, he decided to provide her with some funds.
Cheryl could very possibly become the person who will attract others to the magic network’s literature.
She was extremely talented.
That was why Joshua was willing to help rid those ‘small inconveniences’ for her.

“Tip?”

Cheryl was unable to understand what Joshua meant.
Even though she felt deep contempt for the Holy Church, her understanding of the demons was still limited to the Holy Church’s books and records.

Because of that, she asked, “What do you want to obtain from me? My soul? My body?”

Cheryl’s behavior was much more magnanimous compared to that frost elf.

She was not trying to beat around the bush and directly inquired what the conditions for signing a demon’s contract with Joshua was.

“My apologies, I’m not interested in a thirteen year old child.”

As Ciri was present, Joshua immediately expressed his standpoint.
Besides, Cheryl’s outward appearance was simply too young.
She was not Joshua’s type at all.

“You might not believe me but I’m almost ninety-one.
It’s just that my body has stopped growing.
But, I can transform to the appearance that you’re fond of,” said Cheryl.

“I only wanted one thing from you.
You only have to finish writing your diary.”

Joshua picked up the coin sack and tossed it to Cheryl.

“This here is the Gray Mage’s mage tower.
He doesn’t mind having two nuns in his mage tower to tidy up his books and take care of the owls.
A sage’s mage tower is not something that assassins could infiltrate that easily.
Gray Mage will likely present to you two a salary for your works.
Furthermore, if your diary continues to attract people’s interest like before, I will tip you even more.”

 

This has practically completely solved the issue with Cheryl and her friend living in Norland.

Cheryl picked up the sack of gold coins and was momentarily silent.

The dozen plus gold coins wouldn’t be enough to allow her to live an extremely prosperous life in Norland.
But…

“Then, what about the money for the card packs?!”

Cheryl suddenly recalled one of the most important reasons why she came to Norland.

“You’ll have to earn that yourself.”

After leaving those words, Joshua brought Ciri with him and left Gray Mage Lursk’s mage tower.
