Princess, I am really a good person

Chapter 6 Awakening Mark
  The corridor was very narrow, allowing only one person to pass. The top floor was a corridor. Zhou Mingyi took her into the innermost room.

A completely enclosed room, small in size, dimly lit, no lights, only a few candles hanging on the walls.

Directly opposite the door were some tools that looked like paintbrushes, but some of them were moldy.

There was a recliner on the edge of the room, and an old woman with a haggard face and a short stature was lying on it.

She sat on the slightly swaying recliner, dozing off with squinted eyes.

If you don't tell anyone, no one will believe that this haggard old woman is the only person in Mortan who can carve seals. Even Karas has to respect her.

"Grandma Moya." Zhou Mingyi called her.

The old woman opened her eyes and looked at Zhou Mingyi.

"Didn't you do engraving before? Why are you here again?" Grandma Moya's voice was old and hoarse. If you didn't listen carefully, you wouldn't know what she was talking about.

"It's not me, it's her." Zhou Mingyi pointed at Shana.

Grandma Moya stood up slightly, looked at Zana, and nodded.

"Oh, he's still an elf."

As she spoke, she propped up her aging body, got up from the recliner, walked to the long table on one side, and began to pack away the items that looked like paintbrushes.

"She was born with seals and does not need seal cutting." Zhou Mingyi reminded.

"Huh?" Granny Moya slowly turned around and looked at Zana, this time with a lot of surprise in her eyes.

"It's really strange."

She put down the objects in her hands, turned around, picked up a wooden box, and opened it. Inside was a tiara similar to a crown.

"Sit down, sit down."

She waved to Sana.

Zana glanced at Zhou Mingyi uncertainly, and the latter nodded to her.

Then she obediently sat on the floor, took off her cloak, and let Grandma Moya put the headdress on her head.

As soon as it touched her head, Shana suddenly felt in a trance. She saw many scattered light spots around her body, surrounding her body, and starting to surge towards her body.

At this time, the originally stuffy room was filled with cold currents, and a layer of frost formed on the walls.

"They are abilities related to ice. Yes, they are very rare. Don't panic and accept them with peace of mind."

Grandma Moya's old voice came.

Zana kept taking a deep breath and watched these light spots integrating into her body one by one. She also felt that something was filling up in her body. At the same time, the mark on her back continued to heat up, and even caused some burning pain.

The whole process lasted for about half an hour, during which she remained in a trance, enduring the discomfort. Grandma Moya guided her to breathe and accept the scattered light spots.

After there were no more light spots around, Granny Moya took off her headdress. Zana's body softened and she almost fell down. Zhou Mingyi supported her behind her.

There was sweat on her forehead and her breathing was rapid. She felt as if she had just finished strenuous exercise. Her body was exhausted, but her consciousness was awake.

"He's a good seedling and he adapted quickly." Grandma Moya put the tiara back into the box and put it away.

Zana slowly recovered, but the burning sensation on her back never dissipated.

"It will be fine after a while." Zhou Mingyi patted her shoulder and said, "Get up first and try to see if you can control it."

Zana nodded and stood up with support. She now felt that there were something more in her body. They flowed along with her blood, and they seemed to be part of her nervous system. She could control them like she controlled her body. .

She raised her hand, and the ice elements around her began to surge, condensing in her palm, forming an irregular ice crystal, and the flowing air made her hair tips fly.

"Try to release it." Zhou Mingyi said.

Zana frowned. The shape of the ice crystals in her hand was a little unstable. She tried her best to control it, but then the group of ice crystals exploded uncontrollably, and ice shards splashed all over her face.

"It's so difficult." Zana said a little disappointed.

"That's not bad. If you succeed in one attempt, I won't be able to sit still." Zhou Mingyi said.

When he first gained the ability to engrave, it took him more than a month to master it. Zana's Engraving Awakening has also been completed, and with the additional combat power of an Engraver, the success rate of the plan will be much higher one month later.

"Sorry to trouble you, Granny Moya."

Grandma Moya just waved her hand, sat back on the recliner, and narrowed her eyes.

Zhou Mingyi knew that it would be tiring to give such guidance once, so he did not disturb her rest and took Shana downstairs.

The dwarf boss behind the counter downstairs seemed to want to say something when he saw them coming down, but Zhou Mingyi had already quickly left the store with Zana and returned to the crowded street.

"Let's go and pick out some more clothes for you, but I have to agree first. Most of the clothes here are taken from dead people." Zhou Mingyi said to Zana.

Mingyi didn't lie to her this week. In Mortan, which has an industrial base that is better than nothing, supplies are either imported from other countries or plundered. Those mercenary teams often burn, kill and loot in the surrounding small countries, like these clothes. They were ripped off from the dead and sold to these shop owners.

"Ugh." After hearing what he said, Zana couldn't hide the repulsion on her face.

They walked through the stalls, and suddenly Zhou Mingyi noticed something. He walked to a stall full of waste and squatted down, picking out a book from the pile of dusty items.

Zana leaned over and took a look. It seemed to be a comic book, called Adventure.

She watched Zhou Mingyi flip through a few pages, nodded, and then continued to rummage through the pile of scraps, as if she wanted to find a few more books.

Zana curled her lips and stood aside to wait.

At this time, a tall furry orc passing by bumped into her, causing her to stagger.

"I'm sorry," she said quickly, but found that the other party didn't pay attention to her at all and walked forward without looking back.

Suddenly her eyes froze, her blue eyes shrank, her lips slightly opened, and her whole body trembled.

"Boss, I want these books together." Zhou Mingyi stood up and said to the stall owner.

He turned around and noticed something strange about Sana.

"What's wrong?" he asked.

"elder sister."

Zana's voice was as thin as a gossamer, and she looked forward unblinkingly.

"What a coincidence?" Zhou Mingyi followed her gaze, but did not see the elf girl like her.

But he quickly noticed something. There was a sword on the back of an orc in front of him. The hilt of the sword was inlaid with a completely shriveled skull, and Zana's eyes were unblinking. Staring at the skull.

The scene in front of Zana's eyes gradually blurred. She took a deep breath, covered her mouth and turned away, but tears fell unbearably from the corners of her eyes.

"Black Phoenix" Zhou Mingyi's eyes were fixed on the cloak on the back of the orc in front. There was a black totem on it, which was a terrifying skeletal phoenix.

That is the totem of the Black Phoenix organization.

"It's my chance."

Zhou Mingyi narrowed his eyes. During this period, he had been trying to get some information about next month's plan from them, but unfortunately he couldn't find anyone.

Most of the members of the Black Phoenix are believers, dressed like priests. People like this orc are most likely specialized combatants and must have participated in this operation.

Turning to look at Shana who turned her back and covered her mouth while sobbing, Zhou Mingyi stepped forward to help her up.

"Walk."

He only said one sentence and pulled Zana towards the direction of the orc.

"Wait. What are you going to do?" Zana's eyes were red and she looked at Zhou Mingyi at a loss.

"You don't want to avenge your sister?" Zhou Mingyi looked back at her.

Shana was stunned for a moment and looked at him blankly.

"think"

"Then follow me."
