"I am an official employee of the relevant department!"
"Not a wandering mercenary!"
The black cat leaned forward, its head almost touching the witch's nose, its dark red eyes staring intently at her. Jiang Yu stood motionless, staring back at the black cat, not retreating a step.
After a while, the black cat viciously said, "So... how much are you planning to pay?!"
"One thousand jade coins." The witch estimated her small treasury and answered decisively.
This was an offer filled with sincerity.
Ten jade coins equaled an annual scholarship for a bursary student, enough for all expenses at school for a year; fifty jade coins could rent a spacious shop in Beta Town or buy a secluded detached villa; three hundred jade coins could support an ordinary wizard in acquiring all the resources needed to advance to a registered wizard; one thousand jade coins was an amount many small wizard families couldn't gather in a short time.
But the black cat sneered at the witch's offer.
