Demi-human Girls Completion Manual

So what’s going on here? Is magic a prohibited item here?

Fisher exchanged glances with Emhardt, who was hiding in his arms, both with a look of confusion. Just then, a small pale hand suddenly lifted behind him, seemingly reaching for Fisher’s shoulder.

But at the instant that small hand was raised, Fisher’s high rank immediately sensed something approaching,

his eyes turned cold, and the moment he looked back, behind him stood a figure much shorter than himself, frozen in place as if stared down by something terrifying.

"Who are you?"

At this moment, standing before Fisher, reaching to pat his shoulder, was a young human girl wearing a beret slightly larger than her head. The girl’s skin was not very fair but had a good texture, and her shoulder-length dark red hair formed a not-too-thick fringe at her forehead, with sunglasses covering most of her facial features.

But since Fisher’s rank was high, her disguise was nearly transparent to him. Therefore, Fisher still discerned the girl’s rather handsome features.

Her attire was quite neutral, with a white shirt paired with linen suspenders made of brown leather strips, tightly buttoned at the top, and a Picture Keeper hanging around her neck. She was clutching a thicker dark brown coat in her right hand, which she had perhaps taken off because of the day’s warm weather.

She was also scared by Fisher’s beast-like glance, her face paling, breathing heavily, not daring to make a move. But upon hearing Fisher’s question, she still forced a smile, extended her hand towards the pig-man owner behind her, and said in Dragon Court Language,

"Boss, I’ll pay for his meal."

The pig-man owner in the distance wiped the sweat and stood up, initially wanting to refuse, but seeing the Narliou cash waved by the girl, he reluctantly said,

"Alright, come in quickly. Also, earlier, I didn’t hear anything."

Fisher raised an eyebrow, making no response, and the girl frightened by his aura took the chance to slip into the simple restaurant.

Various demi-human species on the street outside were gazing this way; Fisher glanced at them, and they all scurried away like rats in fright.

After hesitating for a moment, he decided not to reject the sudden appearance of the human girl and also entered the somewhat narrow restaurant.

The reason was simple: he sensed around ten kinds of faint magical fluctuations emanating from the girl before him. And seemingly to conceal this magic, she herself or other knowledgeable people might have used a very clever "nesting structure," much like how he had hidden Elizabeth’s letters in Narimasha’s rented house earlier. However, the girl’s nesting technique was not top-notch, so it was exposed to a mage like him.

This indeed corroborated the pig-man’s earlier words: magic had truly become a prohibited item here.

Moreover, Fisher found this place strange, feeling unfamiliar with it ever since his return; he urgently needed a window to quickly gather information, and perhaps the girl who suddenly wanted to pay for him and had a certain purpose was a good opportunity. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

Fisher’s gaze swept over the girl’s red hair and the tattoos slightly exposed on her back, which were inscribed with Schwali text, indicating that chances were high this girl was a Schwali from the Western Continent...

Just then, Emhardt in his arms tapped him with his head, and as Fisher looked down, he saw Emhardt gazing at him seriously,

"Fisher, you need to restrain yourself, don’t go further, going further would be impolite. Do you want a shorter life?"

Fisher was utterly confused, asked,

"Further? Further what?"

Without expecting it, Emhardt gritted his teeth and added in a whisper,

"You still ask further what! We’ve just returned not long ago, you meet a lady, and your eyes are almost piercing through!"

"..."

Facing Emhardt’s misunderstanding, Fisher was completely speechless. He was too lazy to explain, just silently stuffed Emhardt back so that he wouldn’t show himself again,

"I’ve already turned over a new leaf."

Then, he pulled up a chair, approaching a girl waiting at the counter for the pig-man chef to turn around and prepare food.

She hadn’t removed her sunglasses, was even a bit nervous, and her body unintentionally shuddered when Fisher approached, but her facial expression remained calm.

Fisher glanced at her, then placed the stool a bit farther from her, sat down, and then asked in Schwali language,

"How may I address you?"

The girl was somewhat surprised but quickly calmed down. She then lifted her sunglasses slightly, turned and introduced herself to Fisher,

"Call me ’Ingrid,’ how about you?"

"Fisher."

She nodded, seemingly felt she had heard the name somewhere but couldn’t recall at the moment.

She turned to look at the pig-man chef, continued conversing with Fisher in Schwali language, which the pig-man couldn’t understand,

"You don’t seem to be from Dragon Court either; you’re from the Western Continent... hmm, Kado?"

She glanced at Fisher’s black hair and confidently guessed, but only received Fisher’s denial,

"No, I’m from another place... You paying for my meal, is there any special purpose?"

"Ah, there indeed is. But no rush, let’s eat first. The South Continent’s food likely won’t suit our Western Continent tastes, but the portions are absolutely filling, just like in Schwali. You deal with it first; afterward, I have some things to ask you."

Ingrid smiled faintly, then placed several not-too-new nor too-old Narliou bills on the table.

Fisher looked down, and those gleaming, brand new Narliou notes directly came into his view.

The hundred-value Narliou note, besides old-style blessings, the Golden Palace’s oaths, and various symbols, prominently featured a sketch of a dignified yet gentle smiling lady with golden hair.

Below, in cursive Nali text, it was written,

"Great and glorious, the only Empress, Elizabeth I"
