Chapter 89 Hiss~ Not spicy
Loren smiled and brushed it off.

Amitir raised the corners of her mouth. "I'm not lying to you. Why don't you bring your beautiful wife to my Snow Kingdom? I'll give you the entire empire."

"Your Majesty is too kind. I am utterly loyal to Her Majesty and it is impossible for me to leave the Elf Kingdom."

Loren was worried that Amitil would turn against him, so he didn't dare to refuse directly.

Now that the Elf Queen is backing them up, they naturally don't need to worry too much.

Amytel sighed regretfully.

"Alright, I don't have anything else to give you, so I'll just give you an Ice and Snow Token."

"Ice and Snow Token?"

“Indeed, in the Ice and Snow Empire, seeing this token is as if the Empress herself is present, and no one dares to disobey your orders. However, this token needs to be bound to a master, and only you can use it.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Loren noticed that blood was flowing from his fingertips.

The blood droplet and the token became one.

He had no idea when the other party made their move!
The token can only be used by Loren and is only effective in the Ice and Snow Empire.

Amytil is trying to win him over in another way.

Loren was genuinely curious. "Your Excellency, the Ice Queen, why do you value me so much? We don't seem to have met before."

Amytir, disguised as Mil, spent some time with Loren.

However, in Amitir's eyes, Loren was unaware of her true identity.

Amytir looked at Loren with interest. "Couldn't it be that I fell in love with you at first sight?"

Loren's lips twitched.

To say such things to him in front of Xuefu at his wedding, is that like bragging to his face?
This woman isn't a normal person either.

Emily looked at Snowflake, "Miss Snowflake, do you mind?"

Through their conversation, Xuefu learned of Amitil's true identity.

Although startled, he remained remarkably calm. "Of course I don't mind, provided you're willing to marry Loren instead of sending him to the Ice and Snow Empire."

Amy suddenly felt incredibly bored.

Shouldn't a normal woman be furious at this point?

Hela, Serusia, Cold Frost, Amitil.

The gifts they sent were a pleasant surprise to Loren.

Compared to these gifts, the congratulatory gifts from other nobles were truly insignificant.

However, I still need to express my sincere gratitude.

Regardless of the value of the gift, it is the thought that counts.

Amidst soothing music, the nobles chatted and laughed for a long time.

The purpose of the conversation was to make connections with people of high status and prestige.

Generally, it is the baron who takes the initiative to talk to the viscount.

Baron Jas was the only exception.

Many people sought him out for conversation, simply because his daughter Windsor was a maid at Sandstone Castle.

After meeting Fran, everyone realized the potential of Loren and Sandstone Town.

With the help of the great elf and the outstanding knightly talent of the Silvermoon family, Loren's future achievements will likely surpass those of Loton!

They had previously been secretly mocking Baron Jass for letting his daughter work as someone else's maid.

In retrospect, this was clearly prescient!

Maids also have the opportunity to rise in rank.

Even if I can't get promoted, having this connection means I might be able to ask for their help in the future.

It might be shameful for a noblewoman to serve as a baron's maid.

But it's a different story if you're a maid to an earl or a duke!

Someone asked Baron Jass how to enter the castle.

Some people even asked him to introduce their daughters to Loren, saying they also wanted to gain experience as maids.

Baron Jass wore a forced smile, but inwardly he felt helpless.

Windsor seems to have made the right decision.

However, in his view, he was unwilling to trade his daughter for this relationship.

Fortunately, Windsor really was just a maid.

Loren did not do anything excessive to her.

After some conversation.

The time soon came to night.

Generally speaking, many nobles would leave before the formal banquet.

Today is different.

Almost all the nobles chose to stay in Sandstone Town.

They were looking forward to the dinner that Loren had prepared.

Loren did not disappoint.

The hot pot equipment immediately attracted everyone's attention as soon as it was unveiled.

The servants introduced the hot pot to the nobles and served them food.

The hot pot dishes at the dinner were equally plentiful.

Especially various kinds of meat.

Sandstone Town is nestled against the Monster Mountain Range, home to all kinds of monsters.

Moreover, different parts of each monster have different textures.

Paired with an iced drink, it's another unique taste experience.

Loren exclaimed again, "I must say, the things Loren makes are not only novel, but they also taste quite good."

Lord rarely expressed his agreement.

He originally thought that the kitchen was a place for servants, and nobles should stay away from it as much as possible.

But now it seems that many things cannot be researched by servants alone.

How could a chef dare to cook these novel foods without the permission of a nobleman?

Unexpectedly, Loren was able to use food to lead Sandstone Town down a different path.

From the bustling streets he had seen on his way here, Lord could already foresee the future of Sandstone.

With these unique delicacies, the number of tourists visiting Shashi Town is sure to increase.

Even if other territories follow suit in the future, they will never be able to compare to Sandstone Town.

Lorina is completely different now than she was at noon.

She has completely adapted to the spiciness of the Demon Flame Plant.

She ate the meat in big bites while hissing and sucking in air.

"Sister, is it really that spicy?"

"Hiss~! Not spicy!"

Perhaps it's because the Silvermoon family has a gene for being good at eating spicy food, but Lorton and the others have already come to like spicy food.

Only Thea silently added the ingredients to the tomato broth.

Like Xuefu, she couldn't handle this kind of stimulation.

However, the tomato stew was also delicious. She couldn't help but admire Loren.

How did they come up with so many novel dishes?

“Thea, if you want the recipe, you’ll have to trade items of equal value,” Lord reminded her.

Since Sandstone Town intends to develop through its cuisine, others should not easily ask for the recipe.

Because this is the foundation for the development of Shashi Town.

Thea nodded gently.

At the banquet, the Elf Queen's table once again attracted everyone's attention.

Because the two little elves, Red Elm and Spark, as well as the big elf, Fran, were all dining at this table.

"Why are they allowed to sit at the same table as the great elves?"

"Don't you understand? Their identities are definitely extraordinary!"

"Yeah, didn't you see that table was full of girls? Those who know, know."

"Huh? Is that the reason? I thought they were noble ladies from other territories."

During the meal, Lilia looked timidly at Celucia.

She really wanted to stick her hand into the hot pot to scoop out the food, but she was worried about getting beaten up.

It's too slow to pick it up with chopsticks!
I'm not satisfied no matter how I eat!

Especially since we take turns eating, she doesn't get to eat much at all!
Lilia could only turn her attention to the elf beside her.

Serusia served Fran, Red Elm, and Spark a lot of food.

They have small appetites and eat very slowly.

Lilia seized the opportunity and acted decisively!

Unfortunately, Celucia had already seen through her scheme.

Another chopstick hit her, and Lilia cried out in pain.

"Bad woman!"

Celucia smiled, suddenly finding it amusing to tease the silly deer.

"Call me 'sister,' and I'll help you pick out some food."

"Never!"

Celucia raised an eyebrow and said nothing more.

Then, Lilia was surprised to find that there was no food for her in the pot at all!
Seruccia, Cold Frost, Amytil.

These three women didn't even leave her a single vegetable leaf!

Hela, sharing a similar plight, mourned for Lilia.

She can understand the situation.

While Celucia and her two companions appeared to be picking up food, they were actually secretly vying for dominance.

When they're fighting, how can anyone else get involved?
Iceflame and the three elves ate happily because someone was serving them food.

Millie didn't mind; she only ate honey and nectar.

Hela dared not join the fight and silently pretended to be dead.

Lilia was getting impatient because she couldn't pick up any food.

An invisible force suddenly emanated from her.

Everyone in the hall felt a chill run down their spines.

A strange feeling arose in everyone's heart.

For a brief moment, they felt as if they had been pulled into a dreamlike world.

Even Celucia and the other two were no exception.

Taking advantage of this brief pause, Lilia decisively reached out and picked up a piece of beast meat.

Cold Frost looked at Lilia in surprise, puzzled.

Was that power used by that stupid deer?

What is that power?
It seemed to have transported her to another world.

Although it was only for a brief moment...

Serusia was also surprised.

She knew Lilia's identity.

Besides her, Cold Frost and Amytil must have noticed it as well.

She is a dream spirit born in a forest in the orc tribe, a unique magical creature similar to an elf or fairy.

Her magical talent is quite outstanding.

But that doesn't mean she can unleash such immense power.

For a brief moment, she felt that she was no match for Lilia.

How can this be?

Lilia's strength is at most comparable to that of the Earth Knight.

Above the Earth Knights are the Sky Knights and the Dragon Knights.

Even dragon knights cannot compare to king-level combat power.

Not to mention Lilia.

Serusia was completely baffled.

Only Amytir could guess some of the reasons.

That power originated from Loren's divine blessing.

Both the Fairy Blessing and the Ice and Snow Blessing affect the entire land.

However, Loren's blessing only applied to Lilia.

As Loren's strength increases, the blessing power that Lilia received will gradually manifest itself.

Fortunately, Loren only obtained a wisp of divine essence...

Apart from Celucia and the other two, the others were only in a daze for a moment.

They didn't care about it.

The steaming banquet soon came to an end, and Loren invited the nobles to stay at the inn in Sandstone Town.

"If you enjoy the food in Shashi Town, you are welcome to stay for a few more days."

Happy time is always short.

Some nobles brought their children to the banquet.

When a little girl heard that she was leaving, she immediately burst into tears.

"I don't want to leave! I want to stay and eat delicious food!"

A child's crying is also the voice of others.
In just one day, the food in Shashi Town completely won over everyone.

After some persuasion, the little girl finally stopped crying.

When her parents brought her to say goodbye to Loren, she suddenly asked, "Big brother, when are you going to have your next wedding?"

The little girl's parents' expressions changed. "Don't talk nonsense!"

Loren didn't take it to heart. "It's alright, children say the darndest things."
