System: Build My Own Territory Chapter 1278 - 339: Harvesting [Emperor Potato] (10,000)

Wait a minute.

While Lynn was gazing off into the distance.

A somewhat faint sound of footsteps echoed from afar.

Approaching Lynn step by step.

Lynn turned his head and looked over.

He saw Sienna standing four or five meters away, wearing a gray-white robe.

Seeing Sienna with her head lowered, her face full of hesitation.

Her slender arms crossed, her hands gently clasped together, fingers fidgeting nervously.

Perhaps because over the past half year, she’s had enough food and nutritional intake.

Compared to the Sienna he first met.

The current Sienna was noticeably taller.

Lynn raised an eyebrow and asked in confusion.

"Sienna? Is there something you want to talk to me about?"

Sienna still seemed hesitant to speak.

Lynn spoke again, "If there’s something on your mind, just say it to me directly."

Sienna finally raised her head.

"Master Lynn, Sienna doesn’t want to go to school anymore..."

Lynn immediately frowned and asked.

"Explain in detail, why?"

Sienna mustered up the courage and continued speaking.

"Master Lynn, the characters and symbols taught by Scholar Kent, Sienna learned them in just three days."

"But... but Sienna still has to pretend not to understand like the other students..."

"Sienna believes that staying in school holds no meaning."

"Instead of wasting time in school, Sienna might as well go to the weaving workshop, like her aunt, to work in spinning..."

Seeing Sienna’s determined expression, Lynn’s heart grew slightly heavy.

Lynn’s mind instantly recalled, every time he passed by the school.

Sienna would always gaze at him wide-eyed.

Lynn continued to ask, "Is that all?"

Listening to Lynn’s question, feeling Lynn’s direct gaze, Sienna’s expression became somewhat evasive.

"Master Lynn... that’s all..."

Lynn shook his head and said, "It’s not just that, is it?"

"Scholar Kent told me you’ve never spoken a word to anyone at school!"

"Not even to girls your age."

"Can you tell me why this is?"

Sienna’s expression was shy, but soon, she calmed down.

Sienna slightly raised her head, her black eyes meeting Lynn’s, she spoke.

"Master Lynn, Sienna can understand the meanings in the calls of birds and beasts, and can even talk with them."

"In the eyes of my classmates, Sienna is a monster."

"Moreover, they know that Sienna is a witch."

"They cast strange looks at Sienna, speaking hurtful words behind her back."

"It’s not that Sienna doesn’t want to talk to them, but that they intentionally distance themselves from Sienna."

"If not for living in Master Lynn’s territory."

"They would undoubtedly hang Sienna on the fire torture rack like the armored soldiers did in her village, burning her alive!"

Hearing the string of words Sienna spoke, Lynn couldn’t help but frown.

From Sienna’s tone, Lynn could feel the intense dissatisfaction and anger after being ostracized.

However.

Sienna, who received such treatment, never retaliated.

With Sienna’s ability, if she wanted to, she could easily deal with those who ostracized her!

But Sienna never did that.

She silently endured for so long.

Until now.

Sienna could no longer endure and came to him.

Lynn looked directly at Sienna and asked.

"So, what do you want me to do now?"

"Considering your previous contribution in foreseeing the Iron Blood Brotherhood Bandit Corps invasion for me."

"I can grant you a request, any request within my ability."

"Including punishing those classmates who ostracize and ridicule you at school."

"Even outright killing them!"

Sienna’s eyebrows instantly raised, repeating Lynn’s words.

"Outright killing?"

"Master Lynn, Sienna never thought of it that way!"

"Even though they have no consideration for Sienna, they are still someone’s children."

"If Master Lynn, on Sienna’s behalf, were to kill them, what would their parents... what would their parents do to live..."

In Sienna’s words, an imploring tone emerged.

"Master Lynn, if possible... if possible, please send Sienna to someplace with no others."

"Even if it’s deep in the forest, even if Sienna is alone..."

"Sienna can still live well..."

Lynn still looked directly at Sienna without any words.

Perhaps due to the witch’s blood.

Sienna was evidently far more mature than the other children in the territory.

Especially mentally.

Not to mention, Sienna possessed strong learning abilities.

At just nine years old, Sienna knew to seek the Lord’s help for problems she couldn’t resolve.

Also knew that if she couldn’t change others, she would change herself.

For Lynn, this was naturally a good thing.

Because Sienna could control her emotions and mind!

The witches in Lynn’s memory, often faced endless oppression and ostracism due to their unique status.

Hysteria, loneliness, psychological trauma from social pressure, and so on.

Given their powerful abilities, they often ended up harming others.

Of course.

More often than not, because of differing beliefs, they were accused of being witches by the church!

Lynn spoke to Sienna.
