The Lord of Ashes

"You are so strong, I find that I can no longer live without you."

"Are you going to the north? Can you take me with you?"

"Although my strength is average, I can still be of some use and can help you, especially at night..."

After the fierce battle, Thain used the cleaning technique to clean his body that was covered in sweat and perfume, and leaned against the bed to enter an ethereal state.

This state made him very comfortable.

But the only fly in the ointment was that ever since the woman next to him regained consciousness, she had been nagging in Thain's ears.

This woman's name is Mary, a mid-level female apprentice.

After taking off the half-face mask, Mary looked quite upright.

And maybe because she pays attention to skin care and wears some cosmetics, Mary looks much younger than her real age.

But in terms of appearance, both Sean's girlfriend Lina and senior sister Fei'er are more than one step ahead of her.

This female apprentice named Mary is just a passer-by in Thain's life.

It was a substitute for him to vent his desires after suppressing them for many years.

To put it bluntly, if Thain hadn't endured it for so long and his body was a little unruly, he might have despised this woman.

Taking Mary to the north was absolutely impossible.

Thain has no interest in bringing a bottle of oil. This sexual intercourse between him and Mary can also be regarded as a transaction.

Seeing that Sean still didn't answer, Mary couldn't help but feel depressed on her face.

"This is your reward." Thain took out an intermediate energy crystal from the clothes beside the bed and handed it to Mary in front of him.

Intermediate energy crystals are also considered rare treasures for Mary.

Since the nearby area is relatively barren, Mary's total net worth is only the equivalent of two or three mid-level energy crystals.

Therefore, after getting this energy crystal from Thane, Mary's originally depressed and disappointed expression quickly turned to joy.

This was indeed a high-level apprentice with generous spending and mysterious origins. Mary couldn't help but kiss Thain again, leaving a red mark on Thain's cheek.

Although from a process perspective, the deal between Thain and Mary has been completed.

But in the end, Thain couldn't help but remind him: "Well... remember to clean up next time."

Of course, Thain was referring to the puddle of white.

As a black magic apprentice who has dissected countless specimens, Thain is naturally very familiar with the structure of the human body.

When they were at the Black Magic Academy, Lina and Mayfair paid attention to cleaning up and finishing things in this area.

After all, that kind of environment is really not suitable for the birth of a newborn.

Thain is also not interested in giving birth to any life crystals with the female apprentice who had a one-night stand in front of him, but he almost got it in just now, so he must remind the other party.

Faced with Thain's reminder, Mary smiled.

"Don't worry, pregnancy will speed up aging. I don't want to give birth to any illegitimate child."

"More importantly, you don't seem like a responsible person." Mary poked Thain's chest with her finger.

Mary, a mid-level female apprentice, although her appearance can only be considered ordinary, her mentality is very upright and she is relatively cheerful.

In addition to the fact that Thain felt that the other party was quite noisy at first, the subsequent conversations made Thain develop a good impression of this woman.

After raising his head and drinking a nutritional potion, Thain felt that his strength had recovered a little, and he couldn't help but touch Mary's buttocks again.

Thain's movement made Mary tremble.

After all, he is a young man, his body is good enough, and his capital is strong enough.

But Mary couldn't bear it any longer. Her face froze and she asked, "Are you coming again?!"

"Ahem, I leave this time. I don't know if we can see each other again in the future. I just want to keep one more memory." Thain said.

In fact, Thain's body is almost at its limit.

But sometimes desire comes so quickly. If it were Lina, she would definitely stop it and tell Sean to pay attention to his health.

But now that Thain is alone, after being suppressed for a long time, he is a little unscrupulous.

Just treat it as a small indulgence, Thain comforted himself in his heart.

A mere two hours was nothing. Thinking about the first time between senior sister Fei'er and him, it almost squeezed Thain dry.

Mary probably also knew that this was supposed to be Thain's last time. Although her body was extremely tired and sore, she still picked up her energy and asked the question she cared about most while enduring the whipping.

"You're from the South, right?" Mary asked.

The city of Mensobra in the underworld where Thane is located is indeed located south of Petert City based on its geographical location.

So Thain responded, "Yeah."

Sean's answer made Mary's eyes flash

A strange light flashed out.

As an intermediate apprentice, she has longed for the prosperity and beauty of the south.

…

On the last night after leaving Peter City, the Lord Baron held a luxurious farewell dinner for Thain.

Regarding the enthusiasm of the fat city lord, Thain pondered for a long time and gave him a bright ring in private.

As a reward for living here for so many days and enjoying everything in the city lord's palace.

This is a dark and somewhat ugly black iron ring, which is incompatible with the jewelry worn on the ten fingers of the city lord.

But this is an extremely precious low-level magic prop, which Thain made casually during his trip after leaving the underground.

Facing Thain's gift, the Fat Baron not only gave him a big hug, but also gave him a box of gold coins, with as many as two thousand gold coins in it.

Originally, the baron wanted to give Thain a carriage and two servants as gifts, but Thain declined.

He was more accustomed to traveling alone, and the road to the north was rugged.

Except for the main roads around the city, in places a little further away, horse-drawn carriages are not as convenient as manpower.

"Hey hey hey, young people are in good health. Mary hasn't woken up yet?" During the dinner, old man Frank held a glass of red wine and smiled in front of Thain.

Thain showed a hint of embarrassment and replied: "Well, she is still asleep there and said she would not participate in the dinner."

Frank smacked his lips and wanted to continue joking. Then he shook his head and started to get down to business. "The illustrated book of peripheral creatures you asked me to make. I spent a day and a night and finally finished it."

"Time is a bit tight, so the work is rough, don't mind."

"But the content shouldn't be much different." Old Frank asked the maid to hand over a thick book.

"It's okay." Regardless of the fact that the dinner was still going on, Thain put down the red wine in his hand and immediately took the thick leather book from the maid's hand and flipped through it.

This book may not have been entirely handmade by Frank. There are some illustrations in it that were obviously ripped from other books.

But Thane doesn't mind, as long as it works.

Included below each illustration are corresponding notes, some of which were written by Frank himself.

"This is your reward." Putting an intermediate energy crystal into Frank's hand, Thain continued to read the contents of the book.
