“Wow, this system is really thoughtful. I can’t believe that Grievance Points can be exchanged for daily necessities.”
“Let me take a look again. Hmm, Grievance Points will be used for the lucky draw. The items obtained from the lucky draw will be permanently unlocked in the item shop.”
Pan Liang was quite satisfied with the system’s introduction.
The system had a lucky draw system as well as an item shop. The items obtained from the lucky draw would be unlocked in the item shop and could be exchanged with Grievance Points in the future.
Besides certain daily necessities, various kinds of food were available in the item shop.
Shirley looked helplessly at Pan Liang, who was lying in the carriage.. The only way for her to turn things around in this world was to rely on the familiar.
Under such circumstances, she could not abandon the familiar.
Shirley glanced around before she left, yet there was still no one coming to recruit her.
At this time, she could not figure out why she was not recruited despite being equipped with the highest level of talent. The gazes around her made her feel so uncomfortable that she drove the carriage away.
“All of you look down on me. All of you are giving me that look.
“Now that I’ve obtained the strongest talent, I’ll definitely be stronger than everyone else.”
Then, Shirley turned to look at Pan Liang, who was still sleeping. She reached out to pat him and said, “Get up. You’re an SSS-rank familiar. You can’t be so lazy.
“If you don’t become stronger, both of us will be bullied.”
At this moment, Pan Liang was checking the contents of the system. When he heard Shirley’s words, he could not be bothered about it.
All he did was whisper in his heart, ‘I’m currently improving my strength. I’ll be in serious trouble if I become diligent.’
Everyone in the square watched the carriage leave. No one did anything to stop the carriage.
It was not until the carriage disappeared in the square that everyone started discussing.
“Is that familiar real or fake? Why was he lying down all the time? The other two familiars tried their best to curry favor with their contract owners the moment they were summoned. How could that familiar be like that?”
“That’s probably what an SSS-rank familiar should look like. However, I’m a little curious as to how strong that familiar is.”
“Isn’t it easy to know how strong that familiar is? Why don’t you just follow him out of the city and attack them? You’ll then find out about it.”
“Don’t joke with me. I only have a B-rank familiar. To go against an SSS-rank familiar is to sign my own death warrant, isn’t it?”
“What’s wrong with B-rank? Do you look down on B-rank familiars? B-rank familiars can also be trained to be very strong.”
“Alright. I’m not going to argue with you. Look at those noblemen who are still here. What are they trying to do?”
At this moment, many noblemen were standing still with a trace of uncertainty on their faces. No one knew what they were thinking.
Some of them had already cooperated with other princesses or princes, whereas some were still considering whether they should secretly interact with Princess Shirley.
However, if they were found to interact with Princess Shirley, they would suffer serious consequences.
Casting other things aside, they would definitely be suppressed by the other princesses and princes.
Some were timid, whereas some were bold. Several noblemen had secretly come up with schemes.
Some wanted to assassinate Shirley, and some even wanted to place multiple bets. A few of them could not help but secretly fund Shirley despite already having a princess or a prince to cooperate with.
This was because Shirley’s chances of winning were too great. With her current talent, she would definitely be able to claim the throne if she survived.
“Lord, should we go and interact with Princess Shirley?”
The lord glanced at his butler. After that, his eyes swept over the people nearby before he asked, “Do I need you to tell me about this?”
With that, he turned around and left. However, he quickly explained something to his butler after leaving the crowd.
Assassinations and counter-assassinations were taking place swiftly on the road where Shirley was traveling.
During her journey, Shirley sensed the movement behind her. She turned around and saw a few men in black chasing after her carriage.
She was rather confused. “What are these people trying to do? I didn’t seem to have offended anyone.”
Unable to stand the situation anymore, Pan Liang reminded her, “What are you thinking about? They’re coming after you with knives. Why aren’t you running away?”
Only then did Shirley react. She quickly cast two spells to strengthen the carriage.
One was the Acceleration Spell, while the other was the Light-Body Spell. The entire carriage suddenly sped up, instantly leaving the people behind.
“We’re in a carriage, and that’s why I wasn’t in a hurry to escape just now. How could they have possibly caught up with us when they were just running on their toes?”
While explaining to Pan Liang, Shirley turned her head, only to find him asleep.
At this moment, Pan Liang began to check the system again because he suddenly realized that he had gained Grievance Points. In that case, he had to get rid of Shirley for sure.
Shirley had been giving him Grievance Points from time to time. However, when she sped up the carriage, a few unfamiliar names appeared.
He secretly memorized those few unfamiliar names. At this point, the ones who were resentful toward him must be the people chasing after him right now.
If he came across those people next time, he would be more vigilant.
“Um, this little girl has deep resentment. In this short period of time, she has already given me several hundred Grievance Points. Let me see how many Grievance Points are enough for a lucky draw.”
“10,000 for a lucky draw, and 95,000 for ten lucky draws. There’s a discount for ten lucky draws. It’s pretty good.”
“As long as I keep lying flat, this little girl will give me an endless stream of Grievance Points. This is practically a win-win situation.”
Pan Liang laughed internally and continued to lie flat.
[Ding! The daily mission for the first day is released. Please complete it as soon as possible.]
Pan Liang glanced at the information of the daily mission. He was asked to deal with ten monsters regardless of their levels.
“Tsk, it’s impossible for me to complete the mission unless I’m assigned missions that allow me to continue lying flat.”
Pan Liang’s stomach was empty at this moment. As he had been working overtime earlier, he had not had dinner. He was very hungry right now.
When he was summoned here, it was just past lunchtime. Shirley had been dragging him away for such a long time.
His stomach was already growling, but fortunately, the carriage was noisy enough to prevent Shirley from hearing it. Otherwise, he would be embarrassed.
Shirley turned around and saw that there was no one following her. She then drove the carriage around a corner, which made it easier for her to get rid of the people behind her.
“Where did these people come from? I’ve never offended anyone.” The little witch still had no idea why she was being hunted down.
