Chapter 887 Princess Sanwu’s Hell Cuisine

"Oh my god~~ I'm so depressed. To be honest, I was shocked when I heard the news."

Not long after the little ghost and I left, three figures suddenly walked out of thin air in the quiet open space.

Akara, Kane, and Faraqiqi walked out of the void.

"Indeed, only Vilas and the others can make this brat depressed to this extent."

Farah touched his remaining beard and said with narrowed eyes.

"Oh hahahahahahaha, you are indeed half my student. That's right. Just let this brat's soul sink completely to the bottom of the sea in one breath."

Farah had forgotten that he was the one who taught Vilas when she first decided to become a mercenary. However, this old man was too irresponsible. Every time, he would just throw a note of experience to the other person and teach him a few words. Then he turned around and devoted himself to his own experiments.

"However, it's really worrying. Just a few words like these made Wu so frustrated." Kane looked at the direction in which the two people were leaving, feeling worried.

"What are you talking about? Kane, this is love. If there is no love, can we expect Wu to shoulder the burden of embarking on this path? That is worrying, isn't it?"

Akara turned around with a smile and left slowly.

"A person without love, I can't trust to place such a bargaining chip on him. As for...if this love is his biggest weakness, then let us old bones help protect him. Having made such a great contribution to the league, it’s time for us to do something.”

"Well, that's the case. I have to go back and plan carefully how to add some protection to these girls without leaving any trace."

Kane followed Akara's pace and pondered behind.

"Hey, hey, I have made a lot of contributions to the alliance, no less than that brat. Hey, hey, don't ignore what I say. You should also think about it. I can contribute so much. , do something.”

Behind them, Farah's chattering voice came.

"Sir~~"

Returning to the small tent, Veras greeted him with a gentle and beautiful smile. It felt like returning home after walking in the dark and cold night for most of the night, opening the door, and suddenly being hit by a wave of warmth. The warm smell of home makes people feel moved involuntarily, an ordinary and long-lasting move.

Vilas is such a girl, yearning for ordinary days, and can bring you warmth and touch everywhere in this ordinary life.

Ah, I was so disappointed by those few empty words. It seems so ridiculous now that I abandoned the smiles of Vilas and the others all day long, ignored their affection, and was alone in depression, like the road. There are obviously many ripe and delicious fruits waving to you, but you are holding a sesame seed, stroking your hungry belly, immersed in your own world, indifferent and sad, feeling so hungry.

"Thank you, Alice, for cheering me up."

Probably seeing that I had returned to normal, Vilas smiled gratefully at the little ghost who followed behind.

"Humph, of course, who am I, Alice?"

Obviously, Vilas's words had directly hit the little ghost's proud itch, and she immediately raised her head and became arrogant.

"Xiao Fan is a fool who can't live without me without my care."

"..."

Hum, I won’t complain about you today.

I turned my head and showed a "che" expression behind the little ghost.

"Haha, is that so? That's great."

Willas was still as gentle as ever, neither complaining about the little ghost nor feeling jealous because of her words. However, such gentleness still left a drop of sweat on her forehead.

That...who was the person who tormented her, Linya, and Sarah for more than two hours this afternoon like a volcano about to erupt?

Of course, gentle Willas would not complain about others like this, so she just shed a drop of sweat.

"Come on, sir, please sit down. Dinner will be ready soon."

Holding my hand, Vilas pulled me to sit down.

"Well?"

With a bit of weird enthusiasm, I turned around and saw Princess Sanwu sitting opposite me, drinking tea as always.

This abominable culprit is still so leisurely.

wrong.

I looked left and right, and somehow I felt that this little princess was not sitting here and drinking tea according to her own will, because every move she made was stiff.

Um? Keen gaze.

I raised my head suddenly and found that Vilas, Sarah and Linya were not far away. I suddenly turned my head and started chatting and laughing as if we were chatting for the sake of chatting.

Turning back to look at Princess Sanwu, the conversation of the three girls immediately stopped, and the feeling of those sharp glances came to mind again, because it didn't seem to be directed at me, I was just affected, so I don't know where it came from. .

It's just that there are only a few people in the hall.

I suddenly turned my head and looked at Willas and the others.

The three girls continued to chat happily, seemingly unaware of anything at all.

Turning around to face Princess Sanwu again, the hall immediately became quiet again.

What's going on with this weird atmosphere?

I began to carefully observe Princess Sanwu's every move, and I always felt that one of the sources of this strange atmosphere was this little princess.

As for Willas and the others, they are also one of the sources, but it is easier to observe one than three. This is a very wise choice.

Sure enough, under my careful observation, I found that Princess Sanwu's delicate little finger holding the tea cup was trembling slightly, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on her forehead. Her petite body turned awkwardly from time to time, as if she was bearing some huge pressure. General oppression.

Based on her current behavior, I estimate, with many years of observation experience, that if it weren't for that three-faced face that couldn't show any emotion at all, if possible, her current face would probably have a look of panic and tears in her eyes.

"Owner……"

Just when I was thinking this, something suddenly came out of her petite lips.

"Uh...well, what's the matter?"

Perhaps Princess Sanwu's behavior was so pitiful that I temporarily forgot about my original anger and asked a question cautiously.

"Tea."

I don’t know when, the little princess already held a cup of freshly poured tea in her hand and stretched it out to me.

"Okay...ok." I quickly took it.

How difficult it is for Princess Sanwu to pour tea.

Huh?

Sipping my hard-earned hot tea, I fell into contemplative mode.

By the way, has Princess Sanwu ever poured tea for me before?

It seems that this word is not found in the patched memories.

However, I have clear memories of helping her pour tea a few times.

"..."

Although I have said it countless times, please allow me to be wordy here again. Am I... really her master? Did she really fulfill her duties as a maid in action? Except for the bed warmer, hmm.

"Owner……"

While I was still deep in thought, Princess Sanwu spoke again.

"h book."

I don't know when, she already held a hard-cover book in her hand and stretched it out to me.

"..."

I reached out and took it with a dull look on my face. I looked at the long series of titles on the cover that were full of alluring hints, and couldn't help but burst into tears.

In a sense, Princess Sanwu who could give me the H-book in front of everyone as if nothing had happened is definitely on the same level as Aleus.

By the way, I'll take it over and make fun of it! !

I roared in my heart, and I wished I could throw the hard-cover book in my hand out of the window and let it turn into a meteor and disappear from this world.

The pile of stuff that Alius gave me is now piled in the corner of the inventory. I don’t know what to do with it yet. Don’t cause any more trouble for me at this time, you bastard! !

I turned my angrily eyes to Vilas, Linya and Sara, who were suspected of being suspicious. They also looked helpless. When they saw my eyes falling on them, they were startled like a frightened little rabbit and laughed quickly. He avoided my sight.

Weird, weird everywhere.

"Owner……"

Princess Sanwu spoke again, and I turned around to look at her in fear.

"Want a slap on the back?"

"..."

Huh--? Hey hey hey——? ! !

Are my ears hallucinating? Can anyone help me confirm whether what this willful little princess just said was asking me if I wanted to rub her back, or asking me to rub her back for her? The latter one is probably more likely.

While I was confused, Princess Sanwu had already slid off the chair, came to my back, and started beating me hard.

"..."

Unexpected, it’s really unexpected, and it’s very comfortable. Even if it’s not comfortable at all, I will feel very comfortable. Besides, it’s really comfortable. I’m definitely not a novice.

"I used to help my father beat me."

Behind her, Princess Sanwu said in a low voice, her bright yellow eyes flickering for a few times, as if she was immersed in memories.

Uh, Princess Sanwu's father... I'm sorry, she didn't say it, but I really forgot that that guy was the former King of Lugaoin, Hejiein, who was imprisoned in the palace in disguise.

It seems that I have to take some time to take this little princess for a visit.

I thought so in my mind and waved to Princess Sanwu behind me.

"Come, come here, little Jasmine."

Obediently, at my call, she lay her entire upper body on my lap like a coquettish kitten, squinting her eyes and enjoying my caress on her head.

"..."

When I'm with this little princess, I always feel like a father. What kind of existence do I have in her mind?

I raised my head silently, feeling peaceful in my heart.

No matter what kind of existence it is, it would be great if it could always be like this.

"It's time for you guys to tell me the reasons."

I turned around and glared at the three Vilas who were tiptoeing about to leave. I felt like I was exuding a domineering aura as the head of the family.

"Eh...Eh? Eh? This..."

The three of them were startled, and like primary school students who had done something wrong and were called over by their teacher, they cautiously walked over and lined up in front of me.

"Actually, it's like this, because little Jasmine said something bad to you yesterday, which made you depressed for a whole day, so we discussed how to get little Jasmine to apologize to you."

"Then this cup of tea..."

After a pause, I raised the h book in my hand helplessly.

"And this thing, is it all your idea?"

"No, no, no... no, I, I, I... we won't let little Jasmine do such a thing, we just let her give her what she thinks is appropriate."

The three girls quickly denied it.

"Actually... we should have thought that if we talked to little Jasmine like this, she would probably give something like this."

After being stunned for a while, Linya lowered her head and spoke softly. After speaking, the three girls lowered their heads in shame.

Yes, because little Jasmine... is the little princess.

This idea arose in the minds of the four of us at the same time.

"Is that so? Little Jasmine."

I continued to caress Princess Sanwu's head and asked.

He felt her head tap first, then shake slightly.

"What's the meaning?"

I looked at Willas and the others.

"Although the first two things were agreed upon by us, beating the adults' backs is something that little Jasmine decided on her own."

The three girls replied with smiles on their faces.

Oh oh oh oh, that’s it, I’m so touched little Jasmine! !

Full of tears, I picked up Princess Sanwu, rubbed her delicate face with my slightly prickly beard, and kissed her again and again.

"Ha...ah haha, actually according to the original plan, there is one last one..."

After saying this, for some unknown reason, the voices of Vilas and the others suddenly dropped. You look at me, I look at you, their faces full of hesitation.

"Oh, what else? I'm really looking forward to it now, hahaha~~, tell me quickly."

I didn't notice the expressions of Vilas and the others, and I didn't know that I had erected a death fiag.

"this……"

"You guys are telling me, no matter what it is, even if it is little Jasmine's princess kick, I will accept it gratefully."

While rubbing Princess Sanwu affectionately, I took the last step towards the abyss.

"My lord actually said this..."

Vilas and the others covered their pretty faces sadly, turned around, walked back to the kitchen, and took out a big pot.

"Please...please, can you tell me what this is?"

My smile suddenly froze when I saw a pot full of sticky substances that looked like the evil witch in a fairy tale stirring them.

"Also...what is floating above this...?"

The black viscous liquid suddenly bubbled a few times, and some unknown objects floated up, and then sank. It was so fast and so weird that I couldn't confirm what those things that just popped up were.

"This...this is the feast that little Jasmine carefully prepared in order to apologize to the adults."

Vilas, you look at me, I look at you, and you take a cautious step back.

Don't back away, you bastards, are you going to leave me alone? ! !

Looking at this pot of hell food, I felt like crying.

"This is...a work of confidence."

But at this moment, little Jasmine broke away from my arms and jumped out, giving me a thumbs up. Her shining eyes pushed me to the edge of the cliff.

“Ji~~~~~~~~”

No... don't stare at me like this, you bastard, I'll eat, isn't it okay if I eat?

After swallowing a sip of saliva, I turned my attention to the pot of hellish food.

Hello.

You saw it, you all saw it, just now, a black gas in the shape of a human bone came out of the pot thing! !

No...it doesn't matter. With an adventurer's physique, he should be able to get through it. That's right, and it might be surprisingly delicious. You can't just look at the appearance, right? Answer me, bastard, even if it's a lie. You bastard, don't back off, you bastard! !

Hypnotizing myself like this, I tremblingly picked up the spoon and plunged it into the pot of viscous liquid.

Suddenly, the spoon inserted inside made a scream, followed by a burst of green smoke.

"..."

My life is over.

Determined to die, I took a spoon full of black liquid and put it into my mouth with my eyes closed.

Well?

"It tastes...not bad."

I originally thought that I would definitely die, but after subconsciously turning my tongue a few times, I found that the taste in my mouth seemed... subtle and okay. It was not as delicious as the one made by Veras, but if compared with my original expectations, It is simply too much to describe it as delicacies from mountains and seas.

"Sir...sir, you don't have to force yourself."

Tears already shone in Vilas and the others' eyes.

"I...I'm going to find the priest now."

Linya turned around and ran outside.

"I'm going to equip the hot towels."

Sarah turned and walked toward the bathroom.

The whole house suddenly became a mess.

"They say I'm fine."

Pulling each girl over, I said dumbfounded.

"I'm not lying to you. Although I have many criminal records and the appearance is indeed scary, the taste is not that bad."

"Really...really?"

The three girls held a dubious attitude, lightly dipped a little of it with their fingers, and held it in their mouths.

"It's true. Little Jasmine is really awesome. She looks so... ha... haha, but she tastes good. It turns out that there is such a dish in this world. I've really learned a lesson, huh."

While tasting it, Vilas nodded her head hummingly, her housewife mode turned on at full strength, and her eyes were filled with stars.

"..."

I said... Little Vilas, it’s not that I don’t believe in your craftsmanship, but there is no need to go out of your way to try this kind of thing, and there is no need to go out of your way to make delicious food look ugly! !

"Also, thank you all for today. You worked so hard to think about me, but I was frustrated alone and didn't notice everyone's kindness. You are the best wives in the world."

I opened my big hands and hugged Sarah, Linya and Vilas, three gentle and lovely girls, and kissed them on the face, and I said emotionally.

Suddenly, the three girls in the arms squinted their eyes and laughed shyly and happily.

"Woo~~ What are you doing? I want it too, I want it too~~~"

Because the grass clippings were stuck to her body, the little ghost flew directly to the bathroom to take a bath after she came back. When she came out, she happened to see this scene, and she immediately started yelling because she loved to join in the fun.

"Ahem, little ghost, that's all for dinner today."

I winked at Willas and the others and pointed at the pot of black sticky food that looked scary but actually tasted pretty good.

“Ehhhhhh————?!!”

Sure enough, high above the grassland, I remembered the screams and screams of the little ghost.

…

"I called everyone here today because I want to talk about some small things."

The next morning, a group of people gathered inside Akara's little black shop again. Compared with the last meeting, there was one less Farah and one more old drunkard.

Tsk, a nasty one left, and an even more annoying one came.

Regarding this situation, I secretly took a sip and thought to myself.

"Kasha, someone has already informed you of the content of the last meeting."

Akara first cast his half-smiling gaze on Kasha, who was lying on the table with his entire upper body bored, and asked.

"Ahem, of course, it's my honor to play for the league."

Under Akara's chilling gaze, Kasha quickly sat upright and said with assurance, clenching his fists.

"..."

Come on, even Carlos won't believe your bullshit now.

Everyone looked at the old drunkard with disdain and turned back to wait for Akara's next speech.

"Very good. After the last meeting, everyone has also seen that there has been no abnormality in the recent period. The fragments seem to be very peaceful, but this is only a temporary phenomenon."

"Lord Akara."

At this time, Carlos stood up.

"Oh, Carlos, what's the problem?"

Because it was Carlos who was serious and not the old drunkard who made trouble out of nine out of ten sentences, everyone listened attentively.

"I want to ask a question, since the rest of the fragments are so stable, what happened to the commotion after the last meeting and the appearance of the ugly monster Han Bora?"

"Well, that's a good question." Akara nodded and motioned for Carlos to sit down.

"I just want to talk to you about this issue."

Saying this, Akara stretched out her other hand from the nun's robe, opened it slightly, and as far as her eyes could see, there was a crystal fragment lying on her palm.

I immediately stood up with a groan.

Carlos and the others may not know it, but the fragment in Akara's hand is exactly the one left by the little ghost, and it is also the culprit that summoned the ugly monster Hanbola.

"Grandma Akara, why do you have this thing in your hand?"

"Well, I sent a lot of people to search for it in the dark forest, but I found it, but it was not easy. I almost gave up."

"Oh, it turns out it didn't disappear."

I sat back with relief. After killing Hanbola that day, I also paid attention to it, but looking for a crystal fragment in such a huge battlefield was not much different from finding a needle in a haystack. I activated five crows to circle the battlefield. After several laps without finding it, I gave up. Unexpectedly, Akara sent people to find it. As expected, there is strength in numbers.

"Is this the little thing that caused the incident?"

Seattlek and Carlos both looked at the fragment in Akara's hand curiously. Although they had told it before, this was the first time they had seen it.

"That's right, it's this crystal, and there are countless more crystals like this hidden in the second world, which is worrying."

Akara sighed deeply. These past few years have been the fastest growing years for the alliance, and they have also been the busiest years. There were emergencies or important events almost every year, but she was extremely busy.

"Then let me first explain the cause of the last riot. It's actually very simple. It was due to improper research on Farah, which caused the crystal to fluctuate in advance, which triggered the hidden dangers inside."

At this point, Akara's face brightened slightly: "Although that old guy was too messy, it was precisely because of this that we discovered Belial's conspiracy in advance. Otherwise, we would not have been fully prepared. Under such circumstances, if these crystal fragments explode one by one, it will definitely be a huge disaster."

Thinking of the power of Han Bora, everyone nodded in agreement. If it is not dealt with in time, and monsters like Han Bora are allowed to cause chaos everywhere, the power of the adventurers in the second world will definitely not be able to stop it. What awaits will be It was a massacre.

"Now, we are fully prepared. As soon as those monsters appear, the Alliance will be able to detect them immediately and kill these demons in the cradle!"

After giving the crutch a hard blow, Akara showed his iron-blooded side and was decisive.

"And you will be the alliance's greatest support."

His pale eyes passed over us one by one, and Akara's face gradually softened. Only when he looked at the careless old drunkard, did he sigh slightly.

This person is completely hopeless.

"According to Farah's further research, we also got a clue from this crystal fragment."

After a pause, Akara continued.

"First of all, what is certain is that it will probably take some time for the remaining crystal fragments to explode. However, we do not rule out the possibility that someone like this crystal fragment might pick it up and cause it to explode in advance."

"..."

Whoever picks up such crystal fragments and thinks he will get rich will be really tragic, listening to Akara's words, we thought silently.

But there is no way to do this. We can only try our best to issue messages among various cities and villages. No matter what method is used, these discovered fragments must be collected.

The remaining fragments are all about the fate of each other. Each fragment breaks out, more or less innocent people may be sacrificed, but in this cruel dark world, there are many lives struggling between life and death every day. , crying and cursing, the alliance is beyond its reach.

"In addition to telling everyone this, I have one more request."

After a moment of silence, Akara held the crystal shard in his hand and gestured to everyone.

"Every time an incident is solved, please collect as many crystal fragments as possible."

Having said this, Akara glanced at me subconsciously, and then added.

"If you really can't find it or there are other urgent matters, please inform the alliance of the location of the battle, and the alliance will naturally send manpower to look for it."

"..."

What happened to that glance just now? Akala, what you actually want to say is that a roadie and idiot like me will definitely not be able to find it, and then there is the next supplement. Isn’t that right? That’s right, you bastard! !

I felt that I had been underestimated. At this moment, I was extremely angry.

Although my IQ is only at the mortal level, it is not as good as anyone here, but it is my seventh sense for men. If you underestimate it, you will definitely regret it! !
