Chapter 114 The Messenger (Part 2)

Jiang You couldn't help but laugh at the cute little eagle's actions. With the little eagle's obedient cooperation, she easily buckled the anklet onto the little eagle's white bony claws. With a "click", the anklet closed.

A rose-gold light flashed on the anklet, and then the light turned into a light band, connecting Jiangyou's bone claw and Xiaoying's bone claw. After a moment, the light dissipated, and a small, rose-gold bird-shaped pattern inexplicably appeared on the index finger bone of Jiangyou's right hand, as if someone had tattooed a tattoo on the bones.

"This is quite nice." Jiangyou raised her bone claw to look at it carefully, and then rubbed the tattoo curiously. The moment she touched the tattoo, a small magic projection appeared on the tattoo, and a line of earthworm text slowly emerged in the projection: [Your current emails to be delivered: 0].

She raised her head and looked at Lolisa: "What is this magic projection...?"

"Oh, that's the magic mailbox phantom," Lolita understood. "Uncle and I can't see it, but I roughly know what you are talking about. Only the user holding the contract can see the content when touching the contract tattoo. You can use this tattoo to check how many mails you currently have on the way, whether they are sent by you or sent to you.

“I know a lot of shop owners use it to prepare for upcoming takeout orders. It’s very convenient!”

"How interesting!" Jiangyou touched the tattoo again, and the projection turned off.

"Here," Father Papason handed Jiangyou a price list. "This is the price list for the subsequent mail-in fee service. The Bone Falcon needs to feed on soul energy or magical energy. I think as a lich, you are not unfamiliar with this.

"Raising a Bone Falcon is simple: she'll eat whatever you eat, and you can just share a bite with her when you eat. If she's not on a delivery mission, she won't need much energy. If you need her to deliver mail or other items, please prepare food for her on the way. Simply tell her the address, and she'll tell you the time, cost, and food required. This will also be displayed in the Magic Mailbox illusion."

He pulled out another suitcase and opened it, revealing a large pile of items inside. "This is the included mail delivery equipment. First, let's take a look at this..."

He pulled out a small leather tube. It was about the thickness of a finger, cylindrical, with a lockable leather cover on one end. It looked like something strapped to a carrier pigeon's leg during ancient times. "A small letter tube with space, weight reduction, and shrinking magic—don't be fooled by its small size, it can hold letters up to ten kilograms. Any handwritten, painted, or printed material on paper or leather will be recognized by the magic circle engraved on it, and the shrinking magic will automatically be applied to it."

"However, please do not put anything other than letters or books in the mailbox. Please use this when you need to send a package."

Father Papason picked up a rectangular leather box the size of two fingers. It was also very finely crafted, and looked like a suitcase that dolls would use when playing house. "This is a parcel box. It is also engraved with space, weight reduction and shrinking magic circles. It can transport various packages. Please don't put any living things in it, unless you want to receive a deformed corpse.

"If the distance and time involved are short, you can use this suitcase to deliver meals, but please make sure it's properly packaged. It wouldn't be pleasant if food spilled inside." Father Papason grimaced, as if recalling a terrifying image. He shook his head and continued, "...it would be difficult to clean, attract bugs, and affect your next delivery. By the way, we don't repair or clean it, nor do we replace dirty or damaged parts caused by improper use."

"In addition to these, the box also contains windproof goggles, a bag of dry food, a bird nest, a birdcage brush, a special food and water trough - of course, the little eagle probably won't need this, but it is still included in our gift package - and a common bird stand that can be used inside or outside the cage.

"If you think it's too monotonous, we have many other styles to choose from."

Jiang You suddenly felt like she had walked into a pet store instead of a post office. She had no intention of buying anything, but when she turned around and saw the dazzling array of choices, she suddenly felt a little hesitant to move on.

Wow, how many cute stand sets are there? Some are made to resemble trees, some have coconut shells hanging down, some are shaped like wind chimes, some have ladders and swings... every one of them is so adorable!

Of course, the cuter the better the price.

Father Papason had already shown each piece of equipment to Jiangyou. After confirming that there was no damage or missing parts, he closed the box and handed it to Jiangyou along with the instruction manual. "Please take it. By the way, you haven't seen the little bone eagle fly yet, have you? Are you interested?"

——Interested? Of course I do!

Jiang You nodded, and saw Father Papason open the bone cage: "Do you have any extra soul fire? I can teach you how to feed it."

Jiangyou pulled a Soul Fire from his head, and following Father Papason's instructions, he held it in his bone claws and handed it to Little Eagle. Little Nian Gao shook her head, stretched her neck, stared at the Soul Fire for three seconds, then opened her bony beak, tore off a piece of Soul Fire, and slurped it down.

The soul fire entered its belly, and the bone eagle's body lit up with a silver-blue light. Little Rice Cake jumped out of the cage and spread its bone wings on the counter. In an instant, the silver-blue light turned into wings, shining and colorful, beautiful beyond words.

The lich and the little witch, who had never seen such a world, exclaimed in amazement: "Wow——"

The little rice cake, shining with silver-blue light, flew around the post office, then leisurely landed on Takumi's white skeletal shoulders and rubbed her skeletal head against Takumi's skull affectionately. Takumi laughed, "She's really so cute!"

"She's so beautiful!" Lolisa said enviously, "especially when she spreads her wings and flies."

"Those are soul wings," said Father Papason. "Bone Eagles take on this form when they fly. In this form, they can also travel through the Nether Plane. However, this form consumes a lot of energy, so she won't fly unless she's full."

"It's worth it." Jiang You happily touched Xiao Nian Gao's head, "It's totally worth it!"

"Of course, a courier isn't just a partner delivering letters and parcels; it's also a pet and a family member who accompanies us." Father Papason smiled. "Are you really not considering buying a spare stand? Living in a cage isn't that comfortable."
