Chapter 93 Sacilian Army
Arthur came back to his senses, and then nodded to Shaar.
He may not be able to understand the meaning of it yet, but these words of Shaar today will be deeply engraved in his mind, and in the future, he will eventually understand through practice.
"Okay, change your clothes, and after lunch, we will go out to practice swords in the afternoon." Xia Ya said.
Arthur's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly.
"Yes!"
With that said, he ran upstairs to change out of his pajamas.
Xia silently raised the teapot in front of him and poured himself a cup of tea, and then poured another cup of tea for Alicia and Isabel.
Isabel came back to look at Shaar, and said with a smile, "You are unexpectedly suitable for teaching children. Have you had any experience before?"
"That's right." Shaar said.
"But weren't you teaching that child magic before, why did you start teaching swordsmanship now?" Isabel asked suspiciously.
"My swordsmanship is better than my magic." Shaar raised his eyebrows.
Isabel couldn't help laughing, obviously she didn't quite believe Shaar's statement.
Xiaya is a wizard, swordsmanship is better than magic?
There is nothing funnier than this.
Alicia remained silent. After knowing Arthur's identity, she knew why Xia wanted to teach him swordsmanship, so that he could use the miraculous sword in the stone.
She got up from the sofa, thinking about making lunch first, but she got a little nervous, frowned slightly, and took a breath.
"what happened?"
Isabel, who was sitting beside her, obviously noticed Alicia's strangeness, and asked with concern.
"It's okay, maybe I'm not acclimatized." Alicia slowly sat back on the sofa, "Just take a rest."
"Let me cook." Xia got up and picked up the apron hanging on the stairs. "Anyway, I'm idle."
Isabel's eyes lit up, and she continued.
"I want to eat the goulash you made yesterday!"
"no problem."
In the next few days, Xiaya has been teaching Arthur sword skills.
After being given the fate of King Arthur, his talent for swordsmanship was much stronger than his talent for magic, and he learned how to use magic to use swordsmanship within a few days.
The castle didn't go anywhere these days, but docked in the depths of the Isle of Skye, where there was a natural waterfall.
The meltwater from the snow-capped mountains converges into a stream and falls in a place with a large difference in height, scouring out a circular pool.
The water in the pool is crystal clear, the waterfall is wide and has a very high impact, and the clouds and mist formed by the splashing water also have a special artistic conception.
Surrounded by low mountains, there can be vague clouds and mists. Practicing swords in such an environment will make people more concentrated.
They have a long time, and they don't have to travel around for a living for the time being, so they don't have to travel around the world as anxiously as clocking in. It is also a pleasure to lazily enjoy the passage of time.
But also because of practicing swords, Arthur's appetite became bigger and bigger, and he used up his family's meat reserves in a few days.
So Xia had to go out with Alicia to buy beef in Saxili.
Not long ago, in order to make ice cubes for cocktails, Char dug an ice cellar under the villa, and used magic to keep the temperature, and Calcifer provided the magic power.
Of course, the ice cellar does not need to be maintained all the time, because the underground itself has a certain degree of heat preservation, so Alicia made the best use of everything and used that place as a refrigerator.
In this case, buying a large amount of meat and vegetables at one time is better than going out to buy vegetables every day.
To be honest, Xia originally thought that the meat in the ice cellar would be eaten by the lion, but he didn't expect it to be eaten by Arthur.
Alicia had already spent all the money she had spent selling the brooch. After all, she had bought a whole storefront in the imperial capital and bought a bunch of expensive furniture, so the money was spent quickly.
But even though the tavern has only been open for less than a month, it actually makes a lot of money. After all, the wine brewed by Dionysus is basically a monopoly industry.
Some nobles sometimes order some non-mixed wine such as wine to the tavern in large quantities.
Xia Ya sold a lot of batches with the intention of not making any money, and the investment in this tavern was actually recovered.
In addition, when Xia was bartending, there were many noble widows whose husbands died would give him a lot of jewelry and some valuable works of art.
Occasionally, Xia Ya would charge some if he couldn't shirk it. The price of that ruby alone was enough to feed a family of three for several years.
It was also at that time that Xia had a clearer understanding of the gap between the rich and the poor in this country.
It is enough gemstones for a family of three to eat for several years, and they are given away as tips.
Alicia went out this time and planned to buy two slaughtered whole cows at once. She couldn't bring them back by herself, so she brought Shaar with her.
Open the door leading to Saxili, the rich fragrance of flowers will come to your nostrils, and the red, white, blue and green, colorful flowers will also come into your eyes. Every time you open the door of Saxili and see this scene, no matter you Open it with whatever mood you have, it will turn into happiness.
It's only halfway through spring now, and the flowers here will be in bloom for a long time.
Alicia has been tending the garden in her free time these days, so the flowers are blooming beautifully.
There are so many flowers here, even if Alicia comes here every day to cut some flowers for flower arrangement, there is still no change.
Xiaya thinks that the owner of this yard should have been a flower shop in the past, otherwise he would not have raised so many rare and beautiful ornamental flowers.
Walking out of the garden and stepping on the path paved with bluestones, compared with the increasingly heavy smell of soot in the imperial capital, the air in the countryside is fresher, and there is a faint and bitter smell of grass and trees in the air.
Alicia put her hands behind her back and stepped forward one stone step at a time. She was in a very happy mood. In other words, this was the first time she went shopping with Shaar. There are so many people in the castle. Man, this is a very rare time alone.
The house is not far from the town, and it takes about ten minutes to walk to the block, which is different from when Shaar came here.
The street is very deserted, only some local people are walking around vaguely.
After the war started, the trade to and from here basically stopped, and there were fewer outsiders, so naturally it became deserted.
However, Xia and Alicia were surprised.
They even saw the soldiers of West France on the street. They were armed with live ammunition and carried heavy marching backpacks on their backs, patrolling the streets in a line.
Seeing these people, Alicia's original happy mood disappeared without a trace.
She approached Shaar, hugged his arm, pulled up her hat, trying not to look at those soldiers.
They just brushed shoulders with these soldiers.
They didn't pay attention to the news of Britannia these days, and they haven't been to Sasili for a while, but although it is surprising that this place is occupied by the West French Empire, it is also reasonable.
It is close to the Mediterranean Sea, which means it is close to West France.
Britannia is actually not good at naval warfare, they are not a country with sea power.
The Celts are nomads, and they are better at horse warfare, which is why they can lay down such a huge land.
The plains of North America are large enough for them to play to their heart's content.
But Saxili is different. It is surrounded by mountains and the cavalry cannot enter. The only entrance is the fjord. Once it is captured by the enemy, it will be difficult to fight back.
Britannia's territory is too large, and it is much more difficult to defend.
The town was occupied by the army of the enemy country, and the shops on the street obviously had no intention of opening a shop, and all the doors of the shops were locked tightly.
The few sporadic shops are also some taverns, all of which are soldiers from West France. Shaar thinks that they should be forced to open.
"I can feel the cruelty of war now." Shaar teased.
Alicia didn't speak, just followed Shaar and continued to move forward, and they came to the side of the fjord.
The most eye-catching thing is that there are several warships docked at the port with the flag of the West French Empire. They are much smaller than the ones docked in Yingjiao Town, but it is still very convenient for several warships to be docked in a row. oppressive.
They stopped in front of a commercial and residential wooden house by the fjord.
It was a two-storey cottage, with nice red paint on the outside. It seemed to be a breakfast shop. There were many white tables and chairs in the yard near the fjord, so you could enjoy the beauty of the fjord. View while enjoying breakfast.
Xiaya stood at the entrance door, raised his hand and knocked on the door, but there was no response.
He looked up to the window on the second floor and shouted at the window.
"It's me, Hart!"
After about a few minutes, the door in front of him slowly opened, and Hart was standing behind it, but at this moment compared to the last parting, he was more haggard, and he didn't seem to be resting very well.
But seeing Xia, he was still very happy.
"Mr. Xia."
He took a step back and said enthusiastically.
"Come in and sit down."
Xiaya took Alicia into the house.
The decoration is very simple, similar to the layout of Shaar's earliest house. There is a fireplace and a table for eating, but it is much cleaner.
But this is because a large part of the first floor is occupied by the breakfast shop, and the living area on the second floor should be larger.
At the top of the stairs stood a red-haired woman who looked about 30 years old with freckles on her face, and beside her stood a boy who looked about Arthur's age.
They were all looking at Shaar and Alicia curiously.
"They are my wife and son."
As he spoke, Hart raised his head and said to the red-haired woman on the stairs.
"Dasha, this is the Mr. Xia I told you about. Go and make two cups of coffee."
Hart seemed to have mentioned Xia to her wife. Hearing this, Dasha hurried down the stairs to light a fire and prepare hot water.
"Don't be so troublesome." Shaar waved his hand, "I'm just here to ask some questions."
"I want it." Hart smiled, "What do you want to ask?"
"Sacily, why is it occupied by Xiphalan?" Alicia asked with concern from one side.
There is only one fjord at the entrance to Sassili. The fjord is not big enough to allow a large number of ships to enter at the same time. Surrounded by mountains, it is easy to defend but difficult to attack.
Even if the Britanians are not good at naval battles, as long as they want to defend, they should not fall so soon.
