Manda remembered one thing. In order to cure Pluto\'s eyes, Manda promised to find a witch\'s dress for the old witch. Lulian gave Manda a dress, and the owner of the dress will become the slave of the old witch.

In front of her, salya is the unfortunate witch. There is a deep hatred between her and Manda.

Manda wanted to persuade the old witch to leave the valley with him, but looking at the murderous sarya, Manda didn\'t dare to stay long and left the cave quickly.

Back at the castle, Manda wants to confirm something with leond.

First of all, we should determine leond\'s attitude. If he feels that he is strong enough, that Manda has lost value, and even that Manda doesn\'t mind killing him when he kills people.

Although Manda was very tired and hurt, she was clutching the spell of Pluto in her hand, and there was siegese outside to help. Manda was sure to kill leond.

Fortunately, leond\'s attitude has not changed. He still maintains his respect for Manda and tells Manda an important message:

"I know where the count\'s vault is. Everything in it belongs to you."

Leond is not greedy for money, but at this time, he feels it unwise to hide anything from Manda.

Manda followed leond to the basement of the castle. The first floor is the study and the second floor is the count\'s vault.

Cut off the chain, open the door, the torch passed, the dazzling golden light made Manda tremble.

He stood silently at the door of the Treasury for half a candle, and tears slowly flowed down the corners of his eyes.

There are more than 20000 gold coins alone. With all kinds of jewelry and gold ware, the value of everything in the vault exceeds 40000 gold coins.

"These belong to you. You killed the count, you gave me the name of God, and you gave me this valley. These should belong to you," leond said sincerely. "Of course, I hope you can leave me a little, and the expenses in the valley are not small."

"Two thirds belong to me and one third to you. Count carefully. You know, I\'m very sensitive to the taste of gold."

Amanda\'s generosity surprised leond, but after the surprise, his face was a little gloomy.

Returning to the count\'s room, leond poured a glass of wine for Manda and said his worries: "the people in the valley don\'t agree with me. If I want to really become the master of the valley, I must be recognized by tifeng, but I don\'t know what to do. The count is the dependant of the gods. This can come from his blood, and how can I change my blood..."

Manda said with a smile, "I believe the count is the dependant of tifeng, but I believe it will never come from his blood. The count\'s talent is so poor. He has been entrenched in the valley for decades and is only third-order. How can tifeng see his blood? How can the vision of the gods be so bad?"

Leond was a little embarrassed and said, "I can never reach the third level..."

Manda shook her head and said, "you don\'t understand what I mean. The count must have used some way to win tifun\'s favor. You can certainly find the count\'s way. Start with his closest people, the sooner the better."

"The closest person..." leond thought for a moment. "In addition to the personal maid, there are only Sphinx. This is another thing I\'m worried about. Sphinx may bring some trouble."

Manda smacked her lips and said, "I have the same worry."

"I don\'t want to leave her with me."

Manda was stunned, shrugged and said, "I happen to have the same idea, but we don\'t want her to stay with us. Where should we let her go?"

Leond said helplessly: "her status is higher than me, her seniority is older than me, and her mastery of artifact is more proficient than me. Compared with me, she is more qualified to inherit the position of count. If you leave her in the valley, you should know my situation..."

"It\'s a little awkward," said Manda, holding her chin in silence for a long time. "I\'ll give you three days to solve it."

Leond shook his head and said, "I really can\'t think of a solution. I really don\'t want to kill her."

Manda said, "I don\'t want to. If you can\'t solve it in three days, you have to solve it in my way."

Manda wants the lion girl to suffer. Only after the pain can she realize her love for her.

Looking through the count\'s account book, Manda found an amazing account.

"Viscount Sorens sends 200 gold coins to the count every year? What\'s the reason?"

Leond wondered, "you don\'t know about it? It seems that your time in the valley is still too short.

Viscount sorense and the three barons under him must regularly pay sacrifices to the count in exchange for the protection of the count. "

"The protection of the count?" said Manda puzzlingly. "What protection can the count provide them?"

Leond said, "the so-called protection is not to trouble them. Your father Baron Claude Sai is also among them. The year before last, your family paid less than 20 gold coins. By the end of the year, they were in trouble. You should know this."

Manda carefully searched the memory of the original owner. The year before last, one of Baron Claude\'s nephews seemed to have disappeared.

"That\'s not a nephew," leond explained. "Like you, he is an illegitimate son. In the count\'s opinion, the price of an illegitimate son is almost twenty gold coins. I mean... Well, I don\'t mean to offend."

Looking at Manda\'s ugly face, leond quickly shut up.

"But there has been a war between him and the count. Will he still pay the sacrifice?" asked Manda.

"It was because of the war that he needed protection more. The count was not a generous man. At the end of last year, Sorens sent a sacrifice in advance, otherwise he might not have lost one or two relatives."

It turned out that this was one of the count\'s means of livelihood, which was a little similar to the protection fee of later generations.

Of course, we can\'t rely on this protection fee to save so much wealth. Other methods can be discussed with leond in the future.

Manda stared at the account book for a long time, and finally focused on the name of viscount Sorens.

"Send him two hundred gold coins tomorrow, which will be charged to my account."

Leond frowned and said, "why do you do this? You\'re afraid I can\'t control the situation? There\'s no need to please Sorens."

Manda shook her head and said, "I didn\'t want to please him. I firmly believe that you can control the situation and the bigger situation. Giving him 200 gold coins is to let him buy me a manor in Tieshan Town, a luxury manor."

"Do you want to settle down in Tieshan town?" leond wondered. "Don\'t you want the tavern in Niujiao town?"

Manda smiled and remained silent. Leond realized he shouldn\'t ask more.

"You don\'t have to use your money. I\'ll just avoid his sacrifice this year."

"That\'s not good. The offering must be paid," Manda sneered. "It\'s not only necessary to pay, but also increase the price if it\'s a good year. Tell Viscount Sorens that the haze Valley has changed its owner. If he refuses, let him know the consequences of losing protection."

Leond was silent for a moment and suddenly asked, "why don\'t you stay in the valley? You can be the master of the valley."

Manda smiled: "the valley is too small, and I don\'t want to live under the gaze of tifong."

It\'s true that leond\'s attitude is no problem. Manda goes to Eudora\'s room again. Eudora is talking about Manda with her sister sangira. She has persuaded sangira and Manda to leave the valley together.

Samjira, like Eudora, is a first-class believer of the eagle Banshee. Looking at sangjira\'s humble attitude, Manda smiled and said, "she is one of her own now?"

Eudora nodded and said, "yes, it\'s her own."

After Manda killed the count, yodora showed him a lot of respect.

"I want her to do something for me. I want her to fly me."

"Well, I\'ll take her to your room."

Sangira blushed, and Manda frowned at Eudora.

Realizing that she had made a mistake, yodora quickly changed her mind and said, "I\'ll go with her, right away, the two of us..."

"I\'ll talk about that later," Manda looked serious. "I want him to take me to worm. I have to pick them up."
