Hiding behind the glass window in the corridor on the second floor of the tavern, watching Kig gracefully board the ornate golden carriage, I felt an indescribable feeling in my heart.The Prince of Wales, dressed in the gown of the noble court, with a proud smile on his lips, a long sword encrusted with jewels hanging from his waist, knight's leather breeches, and dark brown riding boots, stood politely in front of the carriage and gently took Kig's hand and helped her into the carriage.Takama, who followed behind, facelessly helped Kig lift the loose hem of her skirt, doing her best to keep her dress from dusting on the ground.The moment Kig boarded the carriage, he couldn't help but turn his face to look back at the glass window on the second floor of the tavern.The Prince of Wales' eyes chased Kig's eyes, and his gaze fell on the glass window, and it was too late for me to dodge, and Lucia on the side took a small step forward at this opportunity, standing in front of the glass window, blocking me behind her body, stretching out her fingers as white as jade, and waving them softly outside the window.At this moment, Lucia's bodies and I overlapped, and I could even clearly smell the faint vanilla smell on her body, with a sweet and silky feeling.Wales's eyes could only see Lucia in front of the window and the vague figure behind her, and he smiled politely at Lucia, but the smile in his eyes was a hint of teasing, and he just nodded to Lucia from a distance, and then stepped into the magic caravan with agility.He must have thought I was the male companion Lucia had brought in.The expression on his face was as clear as if he was saying: Lucia, who is your male partner, what is there to hide!
Perhaps the Prince of Wales sitting in the carriage was still thinking about the two overlapping figures in front of the glass window, probably only a couple can be so intimate The well-dressed royal drove away slowly in a gorgeous magic caravan, and there were two knights in armor behind the magic caravan.In the caravan, Qige lifted the light veil and revealed a beautiful face with a smile.I retracted my gaze in amazement.When I left the Red Maple Leaf Tavern, I waved goodbye to Lucia, who looked slim standing under the maple tree, and I always felt that there was an indescribable emotion hidden in her smile, maybe the half-elves were very sentimental, so they could have such a rich expression.Noah was very gracious and ran to the corner of the street, summoned a magic caravan, and then said to Lucia very politely, "Senior sister, where do you want to go next?"
If it's a ride, it's better to go by carriage together, if it's a different road, then the senior sister will go first, and I'll go to the corner to call a carriage. ”Lucia's azure eyes were smiling, her eyes were fascinated by two crooked crescents, and she pointed to the beautiful baroque building across the long street, and whispered, "Don't send me, I'll live over there."
This area is the living quarters of the elves. ”"In that case, Jijia and I will take their leave!"
Noah said with a gentlemanly look.With that, he boarded the carriage with me, and our next destination was the Emerald Bay Trading Company, which Noah's brother currently manages in the imperial capital.According to Noah, the Emerald Bay Trading House was his family's business, and nearly half of the goods in Palestina Province were traded from this trading house.Originally, I just wanted to find a random trading house, buy some fine flour, salt, hess, cotton, lacquer, felt and other daily necessities, and then find a chance to pass through the portal.Delivered to the warehouse in the underground tunnel.Although the Xinliu grain is abundant and there is no shortage of food, there is no large mill in the orc village after all, and there is no ability to process wheat into fine flour, and the flour they usually eat is only ground out with a stone mill, which is not only rough, but the bran is also stuck to it, and the wheat cake made has an original wheat aroma, but the taste is much worse, so occasionally, I will also buy a batch of exquisite wheat flour to improve the life of the orcs.As for the salt, although there are also salt mines in the Xinliu Valley, but those salt mines are buried underground, and those places are where the goblins live, in order to let the goblins help us collect magic red copper in a down-to-earth manner, I especially told Karantso not to force the salt mines of the goblins, and all along, the edible salt of the orcs in the Xinliu Valley was purchased by me from the trading firm.Of course, there are also daily necessities such as coarse linen and cotton cloth, which also need to be purchased, and those beast women are more willing to graze, threa, and gather herbs than spinning and weaving.The carriage rolled slowly on the clean and tidy bluestone pavement, the sunlight shone through the gap of the red maple trees, through the glass windows, shining into the carriage of the carriage, the shadow of the maple trees made the carriage of the caravan flicker and dark, and when he got into the carriage, Noah lay down on the soft chair of the caravan, as if his whole body could not lift his energy.I didn't forget to poke my head out and wave goodbye to Lucia under the maple tree, and she couldn't help but laugh when she saw me sticking my head out of the window a little funny, and the sun shone through the cracks in the forest on her white and immaculate face, and her smile was so bright.A gentle breeze blows, a rustle of maple leaves, and the magic caravan moves away along the bluestone pavement.On this street called the Red Maple Tree, you can see some elven bards everywhere, leaning against the marble railing, wearing clean leather armor, holding an organ, singing softly to the melodious sound of the organ, and the melodious song through the woods, burrowing into the ears of every passerby.Around the corner of the street, there is a very inconspicuous food stall, a slightly older elven woman is putting the pickled whitebait into the oil pot, the rich fragrance wafts far away on the street, it seems that this food is very popular with the elves, in front of her food stall queue.The magic caravan turned an alley, and Noah jumped up from the soft chair, and when I was unprepared, he pounced on me like a tanuki, put his elbow on my chest, and asked me urgently, "You haven't explained to me yet, how did you meet Teacher Qige?"
”Every winter in the city of El I had to go out to hunt barbarians, and I was much more physically fit than him.Noah had only learned a very superficial grappling technique in the Sword and Rose Society, and he was worried that he would sprain my joints, so he was extremely measured."
In the caravan at the foot of Mount Neosiachis!"
I replied quickly.It's just that the term Neosiachis Mountain speaks orc language, where can Noah understand orc language, while he was stunned, he suddenly broke free of a hand and stabbed him in the soft underbelly, even if a strong man was hit there, his whole body would become numb, I took the opportunity to break free from his restraints and crush him under me.Smiling proudly, he said to him: "When facing the enemy, you must not be soft, especially when you are on the battlefield, when facing an orc, don't think that a simple grappling can subdue him, the best way is to cut his tendons."
If you meet a barbarian on the ice and tundra, the best way is to kill him directly and cut off his left ear, otherwise, you will be in danger of your life at any time. ”Noah was a little pressed by me, and he gathered enough strength to push me away again.He wiped the corners of his mouth provocatively and said to me proudly: "Don't always underestimate your opponent, let the horse come!"
”"Two young and distinguished gentlemen magicians, please note that this is the carriage of a magic caravan, not the arena of the magic academy, and there is no duel service here."
The coachman, who was sitting outside, was very funny in reaching through the doorway to stop the two of us from continuing to mess around.Although Noah was polite to other nobles, this did not mean that he also looked up to commoners, although the coachman spoke funny, but was reprimanded by a commoner to his face, which made Noah's face a little gloomy.He was about to reprimand the impudent coachman, but I stopped him, and the carriage fell silent.As the magic caravan continued to drive along the flat bluestone pavement, the coachman realized that the casual words he had just spoken to the two young nobles had almost brought him no harm.Between commoners and nobles, the seemingly thin barrier is not easily touched in the eyes of many people."
What?
He was just kidding!
”I said to Noah.Noah took a deep breath, making his face not look so ugly, he probably thought that I was also from a civilian family, and after being silent for a while, his face softened, and complained to me: "Isn't there no such thing as the martial arts training field today, I'm afraid that I'm still in the dark?"
”I'm a little distracted.In fact, I was secretly thinking: If I were an ordinary commoner, and the person who just said those words was me, would I also anger Noah?
The answer is undoubtedly that a young man from a traditional aristocratic family like Noah is unlikely to be able to afford a commoner, and the environment in which he lives restricts him.But this is the rule of this world, the social system of the Green Empire is composed of the people in power, nobles, commoners, and slaves, the imperial people are hierarchical, and they are also divided into high and low, and the lowest slaves do not even have the freedom of the most advanced, and those noble people in power can be said to have almost everything."
What?"
I didn't hear what Noah just said."
I'll ask you about your relationship with Teacher Qige again, but I have always regarded her as a goddess in my mind, but you are so familiar with her, and you don't tell me clearly, do you particularly want to see me embarrassed?"
Noah rebuked me.His heart almost collapsed, he covered his face with his hand, and said with great remorse: "Oh my God, I usually tell you so many things about Teacher Qige, you shouldn't have told Teacher Qige too, right?"
”"Of course not!"
I hehehe, my reason is very simple, just to say to him: "You see how much time I have!"
”Noah still believed my words, and when I said this, his expression eased a lot, and he was not as impetuous as he was just now.Then the two of us chatted in the car, Noah is a very optimistic, cheerful and sunny aristocratic young man, I admire his optimistic attitude towards life."
I think our president is very approachable, maybe I should invite her to dinner if I have the chance, Ji Jia, you make an appointment!"
Noah leaned back in the soft chair and said to me leisurely.I was speechless.After a few moments, I grinned and said, "Why don't we invite Shirley to have a light meal, maybe she's waiting for your invitation."
If you don't have the courage to tell her, I can help you do it.Maybe she'll also participate in this cross-plane field experience, you have to find a way to mix with her in the same group, don't give others a chance, she seems to be very popular in the fire class, you see she always has so many friends around her, and there are probably many of them who seek the most. ”Noah twisted his neck and said to me, "Hey, Jiga, whether I'm pursuing her or you're pursuing her, just mind your own business." ”In terms of physiognomy, the contours of his face are tougher than mine, the lines are like knives cut into stone, the edges are sharp, his chin is covered with thick fluff, his nose is straight and his mouth is wide, he has a very manly taste, the only drawback is that his body is not strong enough, if he is willing to exercise, his skeleton is still very athletic.I've always trusted my sixth sense intuition.It's like being in the dark, with God's guidance.Sitting in the magic caravan, I felt a cold, hot gaze passing through my body through the light refracted backwards by the window glass.It was a very uncomfortable feeling for me, as if in the wilderness of El City, under the icy snow, there was an Assassin who had been waiting for a long time, just lying quietly under the snow, very patiently waiting for me to set foot on this ice field.And the assassin lurking in the shadows would never have imagined that I could feel him hiding in the shadows just by the reflection of the glass on the car window, and a trace of murderous intent shot out of his eyes, both cold and hot.Unfortunately, the assassin would never have imagined that my eyesight was even better than that of the rangers who had learned the art of reconing.If he knew, I don't think he would have looked at me so recklessly from afar, with hatred."
Do you feel that something is wrong?"
I asked Noah.By the reflection of the glass window, I noticed that my face was very pale, and my brows were tightly locked."
What's wrong with you, what's wrong with you?"
Noah sensed my strangeness and asked me a little strangely."
Do you ever smell a particular smell or an unfamiliar smell?"
Actually, I want to say that it smells of danger, but I saw that Noah looked as usual, and I was sure that he didn't feel danger, and I wanted to make him more vigilant, but I didn't want him to fall into this deep suspicion and panic with me, so I said to him in a different way.He sniffed around carefully with his nose, found no special part of his body, and looked around vigilantly.At this moment, the carriage suddenly stopped, and a row of tall buildings stood on the side of the street, and the stone plaques seemed to be carved with a tranquil bay and a lighthouse, and in the corner carved a row of imperial characters in the Emerald Bay Trading House.At this time, we arrived at the destination of the trip, the Emerald Bay Trading Company, Noah seemed a little excited to jump out of the carriage, he pinched his waist with one hand, stood on the stone steps in front of this majestic four-story building, pointed to the plaque with the other hand, and said to me proudly: "This is my family's trading house, go, I will take you to buy some goods you need, I will give you the lowest discount."
The next time, you arrange a designated person, these chores, in fact, do not need to be there in person at all. ”I touched my nose and said to him with a wry smile: "It's all said, the amount of daily necessities I buy is only a little bit, and I don't need to buy them in a commercial house of this scale!"
”Noah smiled very happily before saying: "You only need to write down the details and quantity of the items you purchased, there will be a special person here to help you do it, it is very convenient, we are magicians, how can we waste such precious time on these things!"
”As he spoke, he led me into the comptoir.
