Chapter 98: The Witch Farm
Chapter 98 – Witch Farm
Not far from the town of Ferrier, this town was not an unusual town, but consisted of large and small farms, thus covering a vast area and relatively loosely inhabited, with only one street as the symbol of the town.
But do not therefore underestimate this town, because many farm owners here are from the border of the empire, and even some of the retired knights of the Imperial Border Army or the jazz of the family is not thick will choose to come here, after all, the price of land here is cheap, the cost of living is low, very suitable for old age, but also can leave an industry to the future generations, so a similar small town in the north is not less.
Although most of these people’s identity is not high, can be gathered together is not good to mess with, even if the status of the nobles look greedy, will not be easy to strike, because this is touching the interests of the bottom of the backbone, easy to provoke the anger of the people, but all a little brain will not do so.
Therefore, by Amelia fancy, not only hide identity here to buy a farm, but also in the town opened two stores, so she knows the whole town like the back of her hand.
This is also the real lair of the Northland Witch Alliance, although the Witch Alliance’s chief and the second chief don’t even know about it, which also shows that Amelia has long been centrifuged from the two chiefs, after all, one can’t find anyone, one doesn’t ask questions, what makes her loyal.
Quietly returned to her farm, Amelia did not let her guard down, but looked around to see if there is any abnormality.
Without this caution, Emile would not have been able to travel around the empire for so many years, she would have been captured long ago, many times height and size is not a problem.
Emmiel’s farm owner had to raise cows, milking them in the early hours of the morning and then delivering them to the town of Ferrier, a dozen miles away, to be sold before dawn.
The main source of income, though, is cheese, as it is more resistant to storage and more expensive when processed.
Later on, as the resettled population increased, Emilee purchased a batch of land to farm and provide feed for the cows on the way, so her farm could be ranked in the top five in the town even though it wasn’t the biggest.
At this time, some young girls who were not too old were feeding and milking the cows, it was the children with magical bloodline that Emilee had collected from the empire, but she didn’t show her face, instead she checked the situation of the cows.
When Emilee came out of the barn, it was already certain that nothing unusual had happened during the time she was gone, as the cows were in good condition.
Animals were more sensitive than humans, especially milk-producing cows, the slightest abnormality would affect the amount of milk produced and act uneasy, so just by looking at the state of the cows, Aymiee could tell if there had been any changes on the farm.
After checking, Emile returned to the main house.
The main house consisted of a two-story house with a loft as the main body, with a long house built on both sides behind the house, presenting a concave shape, the area wasn’t too small, especially the door, which was purposely built to be taller, making it convenient for Emile to enter and exit on weekdays.
This is the place where the cheese is manufactured and stored, but if the guests who buy cheese see the looks of these workers, they are afraid that they will spit it out directly, because the female workers here all have strange features and twisted bodies, high and low shoulders, long and short legs, six-fingered hunchbacks and slanted eyes, just like a monster factory.
In fact, they are not really human beings, because they have a magical bloodline, they are witches.
Unfortunately, they were wild witches, and at the time of their awakening, because there was no one to guide them, it resulted in the out-of-control magical power being contaminated and distorting itself.
There was no way, compared to the passionate warlocks who could not move without setting off fireballs, the magic of witches was like asphalt in a swamp, difficult to release, and when they were just awakened, because they could not control themselves, the magic that penetrated occasionally would cause bizarre effects, and even produce curses that caused harm to the people around them, so they were not tolerated by the people, and were criticized by everyone, including their own parents and relatives and friends.
With their own abnormality, their family’s disgust, and the violence of the outside world, the already sensitive witches will often generate a lot of negative emotions, and the negative emotions will pollute the newborn magic, resulting in curses and distortions to themselves, so the vast majority of the wild witches will become very ugly in appearance. The young ones are fine, they can barely contain their body’s mutation under Emile’s teaching, but the older ones can’t be reversed, and Emile can only let them hide and work on farms, so that they can at least earn their own living.
Although they can’t go out, but compared to the end of being treated violently, driven away, or even killed, in the farm with food and shelter life has made them very satisfied, more critical is that here they are all the same kind of people, so they work very hard, and the quality of the cheese produced is very good, in the surrounding has a good reputation and a large number of loyal customers.
Of course, the premise is that no one found out that these cheeses are made by witches, otherwise everything they have now will be turned into ashes by the angry people with flames, which is also the reason why Amelia is so cautious, because she can’t afford to lose.
Walking into the main house, two triangular-eyed, hawk-nosed, ugly-looking old women were sewing muppets in front of the fireplace with a saucepan set up, but in a manner that looked as if they were ripping children’s clothes off and preparing to throw them into a pot to be cooked.
It can’t be helped, the face is so low that everything looks like a bad thing, and they may not have done it before, they are witches after all.
The witches out there, despite their ugly appearance, still consider themselves human in their hearts, only with the bloodline of witches.
But witches are different, from their bodies to their souls have been distorted by strange magic penetration, and fundamentally no longer consider themselves human, so what they do will not surprise people, half of the bad reputation of witches are brought by witches.
Therefore, after encountering these two witches, Amelia used ruthless means to subdue them and used them as the guards of the farm on weekdays, but she never let her guard down against them in her heart, because these two witches were afraid that they would dream of pulling out her internal organs.
“Your Excellency the Great Witch, welcome home.” The two witches who were sewing the cursed dolls saw their master return and hurriedly stood up to salute, after all, they had felt Emilee’s methods more than once, and they would still shiver when they thought about it, so how could they dare to let the other party find an excuse.
“Well, has anything happened recently?” Emilee carefully placed the Super Flying Broom next to the fireplace, drying the frost on it with the help of heat, then stared at the two witches and said.
“Nothing much has happened in the meantime, and business has gone on as usual, except for that demonic warlock coming around again.” The two witches looked at each other and spoke at the same time.
Upon hearing this, Amelia let out a cold snort, her heart was upset, and she lost her mind of knocking the two witches.
Although it wasn’t stated, every spell caster had their own territory, and the stronger the strength the bigger the territory, it was almost a consensus.
Unless it is a special area, otherwise venture into another caster’s territory, it is inevitable to divide a high and break a life and death, after all, casters want to assassinate a person, it is really difficult to guard against, so if you do not want to die an unknown death, it is best to keep a distance.
That’s why Amelia reacted so violently after realizing that a female warlock had come to the town.
What’s more, it was a demonic warlock, and fearing that the other party would do something out of the ordinary, she had no choice but to step in and warn the other party.
