Chapter 140: Chapter 107 Ina’s Fantasy Journey (7000, asking for recommendation tickets)_4
“Yatun is not the outside; the People of Yatun never discriminate against the weak.”
So, under Bailuo’s encouragement, and not daring to disobey her master’s order, Ina still chose to remove her mask.
“I, I’m sorry, please, please don’t abandon me…”
Without the protection of the mask, exposing her ugly face in front of her master, Ina was terrified to the extreme.
The girl frantically covered her face with her hands while bowing her head and trembling violently.
“Ah!”
However, the next moment, Bailuo’s hand rested on the girl’s head.
“Don’t be afraid, I won’t abandon you either.”
Having seen the example of Bai Yino, Bailuo understood the psychological state of these pitiful people.
They had faced too much scolding and ridicule and were desperately longing for a place of shelter.
Ina’s appearance was certainly not pretty, but Bailuo didn’t find it too ugly either.
Bailuo felt that it must have been the teasing from childhood, being called an ‘Ugly Freak’ and ‘monster’ for a lifetime, that had made Ina so self-conscious.
“Your Majesty, I, I am very ugly.”
Ina loudly stated her worth, “But I will work hard, no matter what it is, I am willing to do it.”
“Indeed, there is something I need you to do.”
Bailuo didn’t speak any nonsense about ‘not for profit’; what he valued were Ina’s loyalty and talent.
Of course, once Bailuo recognized Ina as one of his own, his attitude would change.
He would ignore strangers.
But in the eyes of his own people, Bailuo was definitely a good leader, a good boss.
“Perhaps, you still need to wear the mask for a while longer.”
Looking at the mask in Ina’s hands, Bailuo said, “But rest assured, this is only temporary.”
Perhaps it was Bailuo’s kindness that gave Ina the courage to start stealthily observing her master.
Bailuo’s looks, naturally, couldn’t compare to the genetically blessed Tree Elf.
But he possessed a unique charm, the allure of the Master of Miracles, which was far more lethal than mere appearance.
Especially since Ina had already begun to absorb the Fairy Power, this made her instinctively want to draw close and admire Bailuo, seeing him as someone she needed to serve.
‘Is this the Duke of Yatun, my master?’
Ina was sensitive in spirit; she saw not a hint of disgust in Bailuo’s eyes, but rather a kind of protection akin to that of a father or brother.
However, Ina didn’t understand what Bailuo meant by still needing to wear the mask temporarily.
“I have a gift for you.”
“Hmm?”
Ina looked confusedly at Bailuo.
As a slave, how could she accept a gift from her master?
“Lilith.”
But before Ina could express that she couldn’t accept the gift, Bailuo turned to Lilith.
“No problem, master.”
Under Ina’s puzzled gaze, Lilith conjured a Fairy Wand and then waved it gently.
“Ah!!”
A white light enveloped Ina, and she felt a tingling sensation on her face, hands, arms, and body.
But before she could scratch, the warmth of power began to emerge in those areas, and Ina felt as if she were soaking in hot water, so comfortable that she almost moaned out loud.
“This, what is this…”
Ina didn’t know what had happened, she only knew that Lilith had used a power she couldn’t begin to understand.
“Come.”
Lilith summoned a full-length mirror and floated it in front of Ina.
“A mirror!!”
The sudden appearance of the mirror turned Ina pale with fright, her psychological shadow stemming from her ugly appearance.
She feared others seeing it, just as she didn’t want to see it herself.
“Hmm?”
However, the ugly appearance she expected did not appear in the mirror, replaced instead by a pretty girl around thirteen or fourteen years old.
The girl’s skin was delicate, her long hair black as the starry night, beautiful as if she stepped out of a fairy tale.
However, Ina didn’t know fairy tales, what she had at that moment was an ineffable shock: “Who is this? She…”
Her attire, as well as her mannerisms…
“I, this is, is this me…”
Ina couldn’t believe it, she had never imagined such a thing could happen in the world.
Faced with misfortune, Ina had resigned herself long ago.
But now…
“Drip, drip.”
Tears kept falling from Ina’s face, the girl sobbed inaudibly: “It’s me, this is me.”
Bailuo did not disturb her, he waited quietly, giving time to the poor girl.
“Thank you, Your Majesty.”
Finally, Ina regained her composure and bowed to Bailuo: “No, master, my master, master…”
Ina didn’t know what to do, the only thing she could do was to keep calling out to Bailuo to express her inner excitement and joy.
“This is a miracle, your miracle.”
With a delicate hand laid down, Ina lifted her head and saw Lilith, a Fairy Queen who could overthrow a girl’s concept of beauty, purity, dreams, and nobility.
“Also, what you did just now was wrong, the Miracle Ceremony isn’t like that.”
Lilith took her hand and Ina stood in front of Bailuo, she knelt down: “Come, make your final vow in front of the Supreme Lord.”
“Uh…”
Bailuo was about to say something when Lilith gave him a look.
Helpless, Bailuo let Ina proceed with the Miracle Ceremony.
But this time, it seemed to take a bit longer…
“Does it take this long, Lilith?”
In his heart, Bailuo quietly asked Lilith, only to hear her reply, “You now have six kinds of miracles, each taking 3 minutes, totaling 18 minutes, quite normal.”
“…”
Lilith made a good point, leaving Bailuo speechless.
As for Ina, let alone kneel for a mere 18 minutes, even if it meant kneeling for a day, or even dying there, she had no regrets.
And so, Ina officially received the blessing of the Fairy Power, gained the qualification to become a Little Witch, and truly became a member of the People of Yatun.
