[Volume 4]: Chapter 109 - A Sweet Girl Won’t Be Fooled By The Villainess

When Ifia found the Tendrils of Misfortune in the Kamys Territory, she immediately thought of the legend of summoning demons using demonic plants, and she wanted to give it a try! However, her idea was promptly quashed by Amelia. Summoning demons is not a trivial matter. Just as the demons have to fulfill the summoner's wishes, the summoner too has to pay a price. Whether the use of demonic plants to summon demons is true or false, Ifia couldn't casually dabble in it out of curiosity. Amelia didn't want Ifia to be marked by demons, which would cause considerable damage to her soul and body. So, if Ifia were to summon demons out of curiosity, those reckless actions might harm her. Even though Ifia always stayed by her side and summoning wouldn't harm her, Amelia still couldn't rest assured. What if something happened when she wasn't there! The thought of the lovely Ifia being bullied by other demons made Amelia seethe with anger, wishing to eliminate anything that could threaten Ifia. But considering the plan to destroy the world still required these demons. For the sake of her and Ifia's future, she couldn't disrupt the plan... However, it was also Amelia's concern that, even when Ifia wasn't by her side, due to the prolonged exposure to the aura of the Great Demon, other demons wouldn't dare to approach her casually. After being lectured by Amelia, Ifia could only helplessly give up. Therefore, she still doesn't know if the demonic plants can really summon demons! Now, ten demonic plants were distributed to various noble families for experimentation! They could quietly await the results. As for whether summoning demons by the nobles would be dangerous? Ifia was not a savior who would help everyone in need, and even she had to obediently follow Amelia's advice and not touch the demonic plants. If others used the demonic plants to summon demons and ended up perishing, it would be their own folly. Unlike Ifia's curiosity, those who used the demonic plants to summon demons were driven by endless greed. "The legend may not be trustworthy, but the demonic plants of Kamys are quite special. Even if they can't summon demons, they will still cause certain changes in one's spirit." Facing Ifia's eager and sparkling black eyes seeking answers, Amelia carefully organized her words before speaking. Amelia knew Ifia's courage was just a small spark. She didn't tell the truth but instead spoke ambiguously, deliberately leading Ifia astray, confusing her about the possibility of summoning demons with the demonic plants. Her reasoning was persuasive, causing Ifia to immediately appear enlightened. So that's how it is!!! Compared to summoning demons, the confusion caused by the demonic plants on the mind was more convincing. Here, sympathize with the families who spent millions to bid on the demonic plants for a second... The mention of summoning demons using the demonic plants was just a passing remark in their conversation, and soon Ifia moved past the topic. Afterwards, she casually took Amelia to the storage room, inspecting the treasures sent by various families when they had nothing else to do. They were all extremely rare items! Even though Ifia was born into wealth in her previous life, she was simply rich, having neither power nor influence, and couldn't lay eyes on these kinds of items. However, thanks to Amelia, she was now broadening her horizons! Hehehe, how wonderful to know Amelia. I want to be her lifelong best friend in the future!!! After resting in the villa for a night, Ifia was fully revived. The fatigue brought by the journey vanished completely. However, she had to go and meet the Saint, Tiffany, the next day and might not be able to return immediately due to attending a special ceremony. After considering this, Ifia decided to call her companions to meet up. When she returned from meeting the Saint, she would then go for her classes at the Priss Academy. Speaking of which, since Ifia followed Amelia to intern at the royal palace's working department, she now cherished the joyous times at school even more and longed to become a lovely little mite. Office work and such were completely unsuitable for her! Ifia felt she had no ambition at all, but she was used to being lazy. Embracing the philosophy of crossing the bridge when she comes to it. In any case, she was just a first-year student at the Priss Academy now, and graduation was still a long way off! She had many days to leisurely laze about. No one could make her graduate early!!! When Ifia mentioned that she wanted to meet Jesina and Lucy, Amelia considerately left them space and went to the study to deal with the mountainous official duties. When the three friends who had been separated for months met again, Jesina was excited beyond words and immediately took Ifia's hand, spinning around non-stop. Finally, Lucy couldn't bear it and quickly reached out to stop the dizzying Jesina. She rescued the spinning Ifia from her. "Ifia, how could you bear to leave us? I missed you so much in the days when you weren't here!!!" Since Jesina had known Ifia, they hadn't been separated for such a long time. Even when they traveled to the Tarek Kingdom last time, they had gone and returned together on the same merchant ship. Contrary to Jesina's outgoing nature, Lucy's disposition was very steady. However, even Lucy wore a mournful expression at this moment, which made Ifia quickly speak up in apology, "I'm sorry, this trip to Kamys came up so suddenly that I didn't bid you both a proper farewell. I promise it won't happen next time!" Having said that, Ifia hastily had the maids bring delicious sweets, attempting to placate them with food. Since Kamys Territory didn't have any special produce, Ifia could only pick something that seemed out of the ordinary to give as souvenirs. Now that she had seen her two dear friends, Ifia brought out the gifts which left Jesina and Lucy in a daze. "Ah, this? Ifia, is this really for me?" Jesina ran her hand over the snow wolf hide, her face lit up with excitement. Being knowledgeable about leather, she naturally knew this piece of snow wolf hide was very fine! It would make the most handsome cloak when made in winter! As for the gift Ifia gave to Lucy, it was a book about the top ten marvels of Kamys, containing various records of special legends. This greatly impressed Lucy! Seeing her two friends so pleased with the gifts, Ifia secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Of course, Jesina and Lucy weren't truly angry with Ifia. It was merely due to not meeting for a long time, resulting in some grievances. Therefore, not long after, the three of them were gathered together, laughing and chatting joyfully. After hearing Ifia's travel exploits, Jesina, in a mysterious tone, brought up the gossip about the city of Dalva, involving news about the Rossald royal family! "Since Miss Barren became a candidate vying for the next heir to the throne, the royal family has remained silent about it. But during your trip with Miss Barren, Prince Carloy announced his engagement to Miss Barren... and thus ended it!"
