Miss Witch, please don't leave your fragrance everywhere

Chapter 40 The Witch Lady's Harvest

　　For a period of time afterwards, Angelica still stayed in Devin Town. She finally found the Adventurer's Guild and had to earn enough funds.
　　About a week later, Angelica felt that she had saved enough money and planned to leave Devin. Before leaving, Angelica decided to say goodbye to Stuart and his family. Angelica did not see Stuart again for seven days. She thought that Stuart should be allowed to calm down.
　　When visiting Stewart's house again, Angelica saw Stewart talking to a well-dressed man at the door. There was a carriage parked in front of the door, and several strong workers were moving items under Chloe's command.

　　When Chloe saw Abigail, she excitedly started chatting with her. After Stewart survived, Chloe became much more positive.
　　The conversation between Stewart and the man seemed to be coming to an end. After the man left, Stewart came up to him, leaning on a cane and in high spirits.
　　"Hello again, Miss Angelica."

　　"You seem to be in good spirits."
　　"I have done some rehabilitation these days and can now walk with crutches, but my condition is much worse than before. Maybe this decision is a bit hasty, but I think it's time for me to leave my hometown."
　　There was still a look of reluctance in Stewart's eyes.

　　"Derwin is my hometown, but I think my soul doesn't belong here after all. Decades ago, I packed my bags and set off. I was fascinated by the new world outside the town and was full of expectations for a new life every day. I returned to Devin to settle down and retire, but I curled up in an iron cage like a bird that is used to flying."
　　"Are you determined to leave, Mr. Stewart?"
　　"Yes, maybe after helping my hometown repair the roads, I should leave. If I continue to stay here, I will only be seen as an evil dragon guarding treasure. I sold the house and some unused furniture inside to a wealthy businessman in the neighboring town, and I will leave with Chloe... As for where to go, I haven't decided yet."

　　Stewart laughed again. Angelica had never seen Stewart when he was young decades ago, but now Angelica seemed to be able to see the young adventurer in Stewart's narration, who was completely at ease no matter whether he went to the North or the Kingdom of Yamaurote.
　　"Miss Angelica is right. I wasted some time, but a passage in "The Witch's Quotes" always inspires me: As long as we set foot on the starting point now, it is not too late..."
　　“…I never said that.”

　　Angelica said in a low voice, but since it inspired Stewart to leave his hometown and set off again, Angelica felt that there was no need to dwell on it too much.
　　Stewart then placed a magic item that looked like a ring in Angelica's hand.
　　"This is part of my family property. Consider it my reward and a thank-you gift."

　　"Can it fetch a lot of money?"
　　"Haha... No, please inject magic into it."
　　Angelica did as she was told, and she immediately discovered the secret of the ring.
　　"Taurus Sequence 6: Overload... They actually put the magic formula into the tool?"

　　Taurus Sequence 6 Overload is a very convenient magic for long-distance travel. The principle is equivalent to creating an independent storage space, where the user can put some heavy items. The size of the space is proportional to the amount of magic the user has learned. The storage space does not have oxygen, so it is not suitable for storing animals or plants.
　　"Its name is the Ring of Containment. It is a magic item promoted by Merlin, the great wizard of the distant Kingdom of Pilsen. Thanks to it, I was able to bring the gold back home."
　　"It also has a binding effect. That stupid disciple is quite capable."

　　The containment ring is like an overload of magic itself, and can recognize its owner by absorbing magic power. According to Stewart's explanation, after several improvements by Merlin, the containment ring now even has the ability to emit magic signals to avoid theft.
　　The ring that Stuart gave to Angelica contained a large amount of gold, and the witch's prophecy when she accepted the commission came true. Although the witch was very good at squandering money, there was no guarantee how long the gold would last, but it should be enough to support Angelica to reach her destination, the Kingdom of Radeboyle.
　　As they chatted, the carriage was configured, and Chloe acted as the coachman. Only then did she realize that the magic of the Riding King that the witch lady had taught her was indeed very useful.

　　"Can we still keep in touch in the future?"
　　"I don't know... where are you going?"
　　"My sister Angelica and I plan to go to the Kingdom of Radeboyle."

　　Abigail and Chloe already have a deep friendship, and now the two are reluctant to part because they have no fixed residence, and it is difficult to communicate through letters.
　　"What about you? Where are you going?"
　　"I...I hope to go to a place where there are outstanding doctors and cure the master's illness."

　　"Don't worry about where it ends, Chloe."
　　Stewart came to the carriage. He bought the carriage with his own money, so he didn't have to worry about returning it. In his early adventures, Stewart had traveled on foot. Now that he was older, he had to rely on a carriage, but he felt that such a trip was not bad.
　　“Traveling without a destination is also fun. I don’t plan to go back on the beaten path. I want to visit places I’ve never been to before.”

　　"I won't let the master do what he wants in a place that's too dangerous."
　　Chloe, who was helping Stewart into the carriage, declared this in an unquestionable tone. Although she was very young, Angelica and Abigail both believed that Chloe was capable of taking good care of Stewart.
　　The group chatted as they came to the outside of the city. The direction of the Kingdom of Radboyle was opposite to the route of Stewart and Chloe, so they had to part ways outside the city.

　　"We will definitely meet again in the future!"
　　"Yes! Definitely!"
　　Abigail and Chloe agreed to this, and Angelica and Stewart, who had rich travel experience, did not break the beautiful fantasies of the two girls.

　　The world is big, and no one knows what the people on the other side of the world are doing. If the goddess of fate is willing to take care of them, the separated people will meet again. However, more often, the separation is the last one, and it will only be remembered many years later. At that time, the ➤ NоvеⅠight ➤ (Read more on our source) separation was not sad at all because we firmly believed that we could meet again.
　　Angelica couldn't predict what the fate of Stewart and Chloe would be. She and Abigail waved goodbye and watched the carriage go away. Their future life should be much more comfortable than staying in Devin Town.
　　On the well-repaired stone road, horse-drawn carriages loaded with goods kept passing by the witch.
