Successfully Luring an SSR Little Witch

Fina was shocked. The little guy looked at his owner in disbelief.

It only ate two and a half last night; the other half was given to it by its owner.

Besides, didn't we agree that we wouldn't tell anyone about this?

Bell rolled her eyes at Little Fina.

Damn it, you've already eaten half of it. Are you going to save the other half for the next meal?

Even if Fina didn't mind, Bell didn't want to put away that half of the Pet Spirit Pill that was covered in Fina's saliva.

What should I do if it ferments?

Moreover, he didn't tell anyone that Luna found out on her own merits.

A small, fair hand grasped the back of Fina's neck, ending the eye contact between Fina and Bell.

Held in mid-air, looking at her former owner, cold sweat instantly soaked through Little Fina's fur.

"Oh no, I'm going to have to go catch fish at Black Lake again tonight."

That's right! It's impossible for me to eat grass, I'll never eat grass in my life!

If it is not fed, it will patrol its 'territory' and collect offerings from its 'servants'.

If we go further and prevent it from entering the castle, then it will have no choice but to fend for itself and hunt in the Forbidden Forest or the Black Lake.

Relatively speaking, Fina still prefers Black Lake.

Not only because there is more food in Black Lake, and it is easier to obtain, but also because the fish tastes better.

Especially the fish-man flavor.

"Wait, Shanna, don't throw it yet."

Seeing the little guy's pitiful appearance, Bell's heart softened. He stopped Shanna from throwing him away, saying:

"We'll need Fina's help with the security personnel interview later, so let's leave it for now."

"...All right."

Hearing that Fina was still useful, Shanna reluctantly put it down.

"Listen, Fina, you'd better do your best later. If you lose to any of the other applicants, you'll be eating grass every day for the next month!"

Shanna poked Fina's head twice and scolded her.

Hearing that there was still a chance for things to turn around, Fina nodded her little head frantically. She decided that from now on, she would stop anything that stood in her way!

Although fish-men are delicious, those bad guys refuse to feed them honestly.

Furthermore, the sheer number of the opposing forces, coupled with the increased vigilance of the fishmen after their previous successful ambushes, significantly increased the difficulty of its hunt.

Having resolved the issues with the two little ones at home, Bell looked at Luna again.

With his senses fully activated, he did indeed feel a very subtle force invading his mind and reading his memories.

Bell has now confirmed that Luna is a natural Legilimency, and her level is so high that it is unheard of!

Although he wanted to bring Luna under his wing immediately, as a person of high moral character, Bell would never do anything like cheating or deceiving.

"Getting back to the point, Luna, if you want to apply for Magical Animal Keeper, that's no problem at all. However, we don't have any Crumple-Horned Snorkack here."

With Luna's outrageous innate talent, if she were to seriously practice Legilimency, very few people might be able to stop Luna from reading minds in the future.

Therefore, if conditions permit, Bell would very much like to groom him into a trusted confidant.

As for his own people, Bell always adhered to the principles of sincerity and voluntariness. He would never deceive or coerce someone to gain their loyalty.

"How is that possible!? Doesn't the Menethil Family have any Crumple-Horned Snorkack?"

Luna looked utterly devastated; her already bulging eyes widened as if they were about to pop out.

Seeing Luna like this, Bell became curious again.

"Luna, why do you think there's Crumple-Horned Snorkack in my house? Did you hear that from someone?"

"Because my dad said that the Menethil Family is secretly collecting all sorts of dangerous Magical Animals and brainwashing them."

When the time is right, they will unleash all the Magical Animals and completely upend the Magical World.

Luna said in a flat tone.

However, the content of his words completely unsettled Bell.

"What?! My plan has been exposed!?"

Ahem! Just kidding.

Bell meant that you have to have evidence before you speak; you can't just say things without evidence, or it could have serious consequences!

Didn't you see Shanna staring at him with shining eyes? This little girl is really taking it seriously!

"Luna, your father may have some very serious misunderstandings about our family."

We, the Menethil Family, are a very peace-loving family. Our purpose in collecting Magical Animals is to protect them; we have absolutely no intention of doing anything harmful.

Out of respect for Luna's extraordinary talent, Bell forced a smile and patiently explained.

Luna's father should be grateful he has a good daughter, otherwise Bell would definitely have killed him!

Also... Shanna, don't look so disappointed!

"Oh."

Luna nodded indifferently. Clearly, she didn't care about the Bell Family's motives.

"Also, although we don't have any of those Crumple-Horned Snorkack here right now, we have many other Magical Animals! For example, Unicorn and the like."

Would you like to consider it?

Although Bell didn't know if the Crumple-Horned Snorkack really existed, that didn't stop him from trying to win it over.

What if it works?

"I don't really like Unicorn. I prefer Thestral."

Luna said calmly.

In such a short time, Luna had already composed herself, which is no easy feat for a 12-year-old Little Witch.

"Thestral are there too!"

Bell was speechless.

He sensed something was wrong with his college.

That Ravenclaw senior insisted on keeping Unicorn. Now, Luna, this Little Witch, prefers Thestral to Unicorn?

They've gone too far!

"But I still prefer to raise Crumple-Horned Snorkack."

Clearly, Luna's love for the Crumple-Horned Snorkack is unwavering.

"I'm speechless!"

Bell, who almost strained his back, stared blankly at the sky for two seconds.

"Luna, I don't know if we'll be able to find the Crumple-Horned Snorkack in the future, but I can assure you that as long as you join our Menethil Family, I will take you to see a wider and more magnificent world!"

Bell looked at Luna intently. He didn't like to pester her, so this was his last effort, and also a promise he made to Luna.

Luna stood there silently. After a long while, just when Bell thought she had fallen asleep, Luna finally spoke.

"Okay, I'll join. What do I need to do?"

Luna asked.

With a smile playing on his lips, Bell looked at Luna with obvious delight.

"Study Curses diligently, especially Legilimency. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me anytime."

Bell is very much looking forward to seeing how high Luna will go in the future.
