Chapter 57 Toby’s Routine

“In the world of wizards, even with the relationship between mentor and student, the principle of equivalent exchange still applies. Not to mention knowledge, which is the most valued by wizards, what do you have to exchange? ”

Back in the dark, a figure made a cruel bloody grin with its big mouth: “If talent is not enough, trade your life for it!”

The shadowy figure suddenly pounced on Angel, and between the light and shadow, Angel only felt the world in front of him suddenly collapse little by little. At the end of the scene, he fell to the ground, covered in blood, and next to his body, stood a man who looked up towards the sky and laughed menacingly.

Angel awoke and sat up suddenly from the bed, with a cold sweat on his back and panic and fear in his dilated pupils. As his rapid breathing slowly subsided, Angel wiped off the beads of sweat on his forehead.

“It was a dream.” Angel rubbed his temples, sighed gently, and murmured in a voice that only he could hear: “I hope that it was just a dream.”

The sun shone through the gap of the window, and the mottled light cast its shadow on Angel’s soft golden hair, awakening the little fellow sleeping in it.

“Coo , coo.” Toby, the size of a palm, stretched his wings, then cooed a few times and sat up from Angel’s golden hair.

Angel grabbed him. “You rascal, while I was sleeping, you ruined my hair again!”

“I don’t understand why you like nesting on my head so much. It seems that the matter of buying a top hat should be the first of my agenda.” Angel muttered in a low voice.

Toby was not annoyed though. After being shooed away by Angel, he flew to one side of the bed and took a small gel like capsule out of Angel’s bag.

Toby fluttered his wings and flew to Angel and put the capsule in front of him.

The capsule, a disposable space pouch left by Gloria, seemed to contain Toby’s daily supplies and also had Angel‘s reward.

It was the seventh day since he boarded the cloud whale, and Angel had not opened it. Because accounting for the extent to which Gloria dotes on Toby, God knows how many things there are in the capsule, which is still a disposable item, when it is crushed and gone. If there were as many things in it to fill several rooms, where would he put them, and when would he be able to take them out? So Angel never opened it, he thought that it was never too late open it after he had a stable location when he arrives at the Savage Grottoes.

At this point, however, Toby threw the space capsule in front of him, so he means to let him open it?

“You want me to crush it?”

“Coo coo” Toby’s little head pointed.

Angel frowned and asked in a tentative tone, “Is there a lot of stuff in it? If there are too many, shall we open it when we have settled in the Savage Grottoes? ”

Toby blinked his little eyes. He was acting like a baby that couldn’t understand what he was asking about again!

Looking at Toby pretending to be innocent, Angel twitched slightly. Didn’t Gloria say there was a lot of stuff? Toby is so intelligent even though he cannot speak, but doesn’t he properly understand what people are saying?

Or does this little rascal pretend he doesn’t understand the question when he doesn’t want to answer? Angel looked suspiciously at Toby. Toby still didn’t stop staring at his eyes, looking innocently at Angel.

When it comes to speaking to Toby, he can understand, but when the topic comes to keeping out of his hair, he starts pretending to be an innocent baby. So… this little commotion is really a pastime for him!

“It’s only because you’re a bird that I can’t see the expression on your face, or I’ll beat you up!” Angel thought to himself, if the rascal were a man, there would be a “I’m pretending, so bite me” look on his face!

Angel thought about it and picked up the space capsule.

“What on earth is in here that you are in such a hurry to get?”

Toby did not play innocent this time, waving his wings at an outfit on the nightstand, the blue-and-white outfit he wore these days, and a small satchel that looked like a carrier pigeon postman in a fairy tale.

“…” Angel looked at the outfit, and at Toby, now naked, with a hard expression: “Are you going to change outfits?”

Toby nodded without hesitation.

“Why are you so narcissistic, aren’t you a bird? Your postman outfit is obviously still very clean, can’t you wear it for a couple more days? ” Angel almost roared, so loud that even Nausica, who was in the tent opposite, opened her curtain to take a look.

Angel nodded apologetically to Nausica, who smiled flirtatiously and closed the curtain.

Angel pulled down the curtain and turned his head and glared at Toby.

Toby immediately returned to the “innocent bird” act, which paired with his other act of “I am a bird, what are you talking about? And I don’t understand what you humans say. ”

Angel looked on at the stupid bird with no salt or oil, sighed, and took the space capsule aside.

Well, I hope there’s not too much stuff in it.

Angel’s slender thumb and index finger slightly twisted, the space capsule broke, followed by a smoky and watery mist which broke the balance of three-dimensional space, after the spatial ripples disappeared, a lot of things appeared in front of Angel from thin air.

These things, like a “hill”, accounts for 9/10 of the usable space in the tent. Although these things do not look like much, but when so much appears in front of him, it is quite shocking. And what came from the broken capsule, Angel could tell that 99% of it was a change of clothes.

Lace skirts, color shirts, gentleman outfits, chef’s outfits, there is even armor, knights suits, scale mail, how can your little body support all these clothes! What made Angel most speechless was that he had a bunch of “animal costumes” included in it! Rabbit ear suit, mermaid suit, bear suit, and aren’t you an animal yourself, why are you wearing the clothes of other animals? And this guy whether he is a male or female in the end, why is there a cat suit included?!

In addition to clothing, there are some daily necessities, including dinner plates, cups and utensils, as well as small quilts and wooden beds.

Looking at the little wooden bed, Angel’s eyes brightened. “With this bed, you won’t nestle in my hair at night again, will you?”

Angel simply tidied up Toby’s things, then waved his hand and let him choose his own change of clothes.

He himself took out a bulging small cloth bag from the pile of clothes, which was written in flowery font: “To Angel.”

Come to think of it, that’s what Gloria paid him. With curiosity, Angel opened the cloth bag and placed about 30 coin-shaped transparent crystals in it.

Before lodging on the cloud whale, Angel may not know what these were. But these days, he read a lot of books from his cheap mentor’s library, so he is familiar with the common sense of the wizard world.

The transparent crystal coin in the cloth bag is the common currency of the wizard world called magic crystal. Angel remembers that Morrow said he earned no more than a hundred magic crystals a year, and that the healing ice coffin he used to heal his mentor was actually less than 30 magic crystals.

Even though fickle, Angel had thanked Morrow for the healing ice coffin. But now, before he has really stepped into the World of Wizards , he has 30 magic crystals. Maybe this is a chance of life.

Angel carefully put the cloth bag into his inner bag of the clothes.

When Angel’s side was done, Toby picked out a new outfit of his own.

It was a black gentleman’s suit with a burgundy tie and a black top hat of the same style. After Angel dressed him, Toby deliberately brought his hat up and raised his little head at him, his intention of which could not have been any more obvious.

Looking at Toby’s swaggering movements, Angel always felt something wrong.

This rascal, isn’t this because he said he wanted to buy a top hat, now he’s wearing a top hat in front of him to satirize him, right?!

Angel thinks he found the truth. With Toby’s stubborn character, he is sure to do such a thing!
