Chapter 16 Family members also have to pay wages

…

Matthew opened the door and looked out.

Outside the fence gate.

A petite figure stood.

There is no moon tonight.

Matthew could only vaguely see that the other party was wearing a small dark red cloak, and he was looking around uneasily.

"Sif?"

The mage's fire lit up, Matthew walked over and saw a fair little face.

It was the girl he rescued from the magician camp a few days ago.

I don't know if it was because of running, but Sif's face was red and there was a faint mist in her eyes.

"Shh! Matthew, I ran out secretly!"

Sif's voice trembled slightly:

"Um, can you let me in for a moment?"

Matthew opened the door smoothly: "Of course, but if you do this, wouldn't it be bad?"

He was referring to the fact that Sif had just been kidnapped. Her safety had affected countless nerves in the Lord's Mansion. If she were to sneak out and be discovered, there would inevitably be a big fuss.

"Don't worry, I'm not an ignorant rebellious girl."

Sif took off the hood of her cloak as she walked inside: "I sneaked out while the maids were asleep. There is a mirror image of me in the bedroom covering, and I won't be gone for too long.

, I feel very sorry for making everyone so worried last time."

Matthew nodded.

He led the girl through the door and sat down in the living room.

"Would you like coffee? Or milk." Peggy was not here, so Matthew could only greet him by himself.

Sif smiled: "Milk, I won't be able to sleep if I drink coffee at night. I haven't been able to sleep well these days."

After a while.

The girl held her cup of steaming milk and blew gently.

Matthew sat in front of her silently.

The atmosphere was a little awkward.

"Ha, it's so hot..."

Sif took a sip of milk and stuck out her tongue.

"I came here specifically to thank you, Matthew."

Matthew observed the other party calmly.

Sif put down the milk and said with some humor: "Please, you don't think everyone will believe the ghost story that Brad made up, do you? At least I know that my savior is not some illusory big shot in White Rock City, but Yin

."

Matthew thought for a while: "Were you awake at that time?"

Sif blushed and nodded: "It's the same from the beginning to the end. It's just that the magician made me smell a kind of medicinal powder. My consciousness is always awake, but I can't control my body."

Speaking of which.

She took a long breath, with a look of deep fear on her face: "To be honest, Matthew, if it weren't for you, I really don't know what would have happened next. You saved my life, but I didn't

I know how to thank you."

"They locked me up at home these days, but I couldn't sleep all night long. Every time I closed my eyes, the face of the magician would appear in front of my eyes. Only when I think of you, my heart

It will be a little more peaceful.”

Matthew listened quietly to Sif's confession.

Being kidnapped can easily become a person's nightmare, and a mentally weak person would have collapsed long ago.

But Sif is obviously different.

She just whispered for a while and then put on her youthful smile:

"I really didn't expect you to be so powerful! If other girls in the school know about it, I'm afraid the love letters you will receive during the Spring Festival will double than in previous years!"

Matthew said calmly: "But I am a necromancer."

"What happened to the Necromancer?!" Sif said excitedly: "Biana is an idiot! She obviously likes you so much, but she was at a loss when she heard that you were once a Necromancer. Not every death

Spirit mages are all bad guys!"

Matthew looked at her in surprise: "Biana?"

Sif subconsciously covered her mouth with half of her palm, and then said coquettishly under Matthew's gaze:

…

"Okay, okay, I admit that I encouraged her to confess to you - but what's wrong with that? She already likes you very much!

She has a diary at home, and at least 90% of the contents in it are related to you. She even wrote down the color of the socks you wear in class every day!

In my opinion, this is what love looks like!

Of course I would encourage her to express her feelings when parting - I just didn't expect her to care about the world's opinions, which is really disappointing!"

…

Matthew rubbed his temples.

It's not easy for him to comment on adolescent girls' views on love.

So he could only change the topic and said:

"So, others also know that the Necromancer is me?"

Sif's head suddenly shook like a rattle:

"I didn't tell anyone! Everyone else believed Brad's nonsense, including my father. He is a big fool..."

However, the words did not fall.

In the corner of the living room, the copper bell strung on a hemp rope rang again.

"Who would come to see you in the middle of the night?"

Sif followed Matthew with a half-filled glass of milk and looked around.

The next second.

Her little face turned white:

"It's my father!"

"It's so bad Matthew, where can I hide?"

…

"Lord, you're here late at night. What's the point of your visit?"

From inside the fence, Matthew asked politely.

He didn't open the door, firstly because he wasn't familiar with the lord, and secondly, after all, his daughter was in his room, so he probably couldn't tell clearly in the middle of the night.

"Is this how you treat your guests?"

Rhaegar Blood Flag said angrily.

Matthew noticed that he was also wearing a dark red cloak. The material was similar to the one on Sif, but the size was obviously much larger.

The darkness behind him was empty, and there was no one following him.

"Don't look, I'm the only one."

Rhaegar urged impatiently:

"Come in and talk."

Matthew had no choice but to open the door and lead him into the living room.

"Coffee or milk?"

he asks.

"No need, I won't stay here too long."

Rhaegar's tone was very stiff.
