Lord Chronicle

Chapter 154 Mary's Conspiracy

Before the small town, the team returning to the capital was ready to set off.

The full cavalry team now has only a few dozens of people left, and some of the knights' horses were provided by Sol.Due to the long distance, the bodies of the dead Tavia and others had been cremated a few days ago, and only the ashes were brought back to the capital.

After repelling the undead, Volsa should have left.But this war started because of him, so it would be unreasonable to just leave like this, so he also stayed to help restore the territory, and only now set off to return to the guild.

At this time, he was saying goodbye to the people who saw him off one by one. After two days of fighting for life and death, he became familiar with most of the people in the town, and there was no gap between conversations.

"Be careful all the way, come to play again when you have time, but don't bring a bunch of undead with you." Kress's words elicited a burst of good-natured laughter.

"Come on, the journey is lonely, I specially made this for your entertainment on the road." Mary handed Walsa a beautifully packaged box.

"What is it?" Walsa took it curiously.

"The simplified version of Little White Rabbit No. 99 only sells for 99 gold coins and 100 silver coins, which is a super value price of less than 100 gold coins, and comes with a super value set that can be used [-] times in a row. It is absolutely super value..." Mary looked mysterious. .

Unexpectedly, before she finished speaking, Walsa immediately smashed the box in her face with a blank expression.

"Well, you dare to beat my old lady!" Mary was furious.

She was about to get mad, but she was kicked away from the side, followed by an unscrupulous father who even beat his daughter and took Walsa to the side.

"Boy, remember it for me. When you go back, you must never say that you saw me here, otherwise I will never let you go." Hitches said with a grim face.

Is it so serious... Walsa couldn't laugh or cry: "I know."

"Again, don't even mention sleep talk..."

Before Hitches finished his instructions, he suddenly saw a flying leg imprinted on his cheek, followed by the unscrupulous middle-aged man flying out while Walsa was stunned.

"Damn old man, even hitting women, you are still not a man!"

"Bastard, bastard, what is the daughter who beats the father?"

Amidst the sound of cursing, a father and a daughter punched and kicked and fought into a ball.

Looking at this strange pair of father and daughter, Walsa could only shake his head.Alas, compared with them, our Almuk four masters are not enough.

At this time, Sol and Jessica also came.Handing Marlene's snack box to Walsa, he said, "Marlene can't come in person, she asked me to give you this box of snacks."

After receiving the gift, Walsa said casually, "What's wrong with Marlene? Why haven't I seen anyone these days?"

"It's just a little sick, nothing." Saul lied.

"But it's much better just now, and it's all thanks to the lord." Jessica said, giving him a sideways glance.

Knowing what she was referring to just now, Sol couldn't help but blush no matter how thick-skinned he was.He coughed dryly: "Be careful on the road, don't be caught up by the Necromancer again."

Walsa nodded: "Don't worry, I have my own way. But you, although you defeated them this time, there is no guarantee that those guys will not come again in the future."

Sol smiled wryly: "Anyway, the beams are getting bigger, it doesn't matter if it's two or three times."

Walsa couldn't help lowering his head: "If it wasn't because of me this time..."

"Okay, don't be a mother-in-law." Sol stretched out his hand to stop him: "You really feel guilty, and find a way to get me some real magicians when you go back."

"Isn't Mr. Hitches' magic power very strong?" Walsa was puzzled.

"Him?" Sol patted him on the shoulder dumbfoundingly: "In short, it's hard to say."

"Okay, I will find a way." Looking back at the knights waiting on the horse, Walsa said, "It's time to go. I hope the war will be over by the time we meet next time."

Accompanying him to the side of the team, Sol said to the knights: "Lowell was able to defeat the undead this time, thanks to everyone who sacrificed their lives. Please let me express my deepest thanks again."

Jessica on the side also bent down to salute after him.

"Master Marquis, please don't say that, this is our duty as soldiers."

"It's an honor for us to fight alongside you."

"Following you out of the royal capital this time will be an experience I will never forget in my life."

……

The knights said one after another that fighting side by side can really bring the distance between the two sides a lot closer.

Walsa got on his horse, bid farewell to everyone in Lovell, and the team slowly headed out of the town.

At this time, Mary suddenly caught up with Walsa and gave him the simplified version of the white rabbit: "Here you are."

"I said I wouldn't buy it..." Walsa was about to refuse.

"Stop talking nonsense, it's for you." Mary waved her hand impatiently.

Then, she said casually: "That dead old man seems very happy to stay here. Anyway, he has betrayed alchemy and has no effect on the guild anymore, so you don't need to tell others that you have seen him."

Startled slightly, Walsa couldn't help but smile: "Don't worry, I've never met Mr. Hitches, I only know that Lovell has a crappy magician."

Mary snorted and patted his horse's ass: "Then get lost."

Seeing this daughter, who was still fighting with her father just now, came here to warn her, Walsa shook her head with some emotion.Then, his eyes fell on the box in his hand.

Uh... this thing, let's throw it away on the way.

****************************************************************
"Hey, I'm going back to Diviji Castle soon, but the relationship with Sol has not progressed at all, which is really distressing."

In Mary's alchemy workshop, Kafir sighed faintly, playing with a crystal ball on the table.

Since forming the "Alliance against Jessica Sisters" with Mary, she often came to Mary's alchemy workshop, and the two girls hit it off unexpectedly.

Hearing this, Mary, who was holding a flask and kept shaking it, turned her head: "How far have you guys progressed?"

Kafir held his head in distress: "It's just not at all, which is annoying."

"Have you been in bed yet?"

"You...of course not."

"Then have you ever given this to him?" Mary rolled it into a cylinder with one hand, and moved it back and forth a few times by placing it near her "O"-shaped mouth.

"what is this?"

"Looks like it's gone, what about this one?" Mary moved her rolled hands up and down this time.

"What... what is this?"

"No? Then... have you touched each other's bodies?"

"Hate it, no more." Kafir's face was already flushed.

"No? Damn, then, there should be kisses, right?"

"No." Kafir shook his head embarrassingly.

"Wow, are you a three-year-old?" Mary stared at her like an alien.

As she spoke, she chuckled: "However, there is one thing I can be sure of."

"what?"

"That brat Sol must have had a hard time holding back."

Kafir retorted: "Then I can confirm one thing, Mary, you are really horny."

"Okay, don't talk about that." Putting down the flask, Mary sat next to Kafir: "Kafir, do you know that you are really dangerous."

"What, what's wrong?" Seeing her serious expression, Kafir asked in surprise.

Mary sighed: "You have been in Diviji Castle for a long time, but Jessica always stays by Sol's side, and she has a lot of advantages over you in this alone. You want to compete with her for Sol, it's difficult .”

"No, Saul has already followed me..." Kafir hastily argued.

Mary immediately came over with a gossip face: "What are you doing?"

"It's nothing." Kafir lowered his head, but what he was thinking about was Saul's marriage contract with himself.It's just that even she herself is not sure whether this agreement is still useful.

Mary said with emotion: "But it's a miracle that kid hasn't touched you until now."

"Don't talk nonsense, Saul is not that kind of person." Kafir blushed.

Mary twitched her finger: "Of course that kid pretended to be innocent in front of you, but based on what I know about him, I'm sure he'll become a beast one day."

"How is it possible?" Kafir couldn't help but widen his eyes.

Mary showed a "what do you know" expression: "Don't you understand? When he really shows his beast side, you will not be by your side. Once he cooks raw rice with Jessica , if you want to take him back, it will be much harder."

This is the first time someone has mentioned such a practical issue to Kafir, and she said shyly and anxiously: "No, Sol hasn't touched me before, so how could he talk to her..."

Mary couldn't help knocking on the table: "Aren't you enlightened? He didn't touch you, probably because he didn't have a chance. But he and Jessica are together almost every day, but there are plenty of opportunities."

"You must know that Jessica is a beautiful woman who is not inferior to you. It is not an exaggeration to say that she is a natural stunner. Let alone Saul, she would have been tempted by another man. So I am even more curious, how did that kid endure until now."

The current Mary is like a mother-san who has attracted thousands of people.

Finally, she came to a conclusion: "So no matter how you look at it, you are a loser."

Completely frightened by her, Kafir said anxiously: "Then what should I do?"

Mary's eyes flashed brightly: "At this point, there is only one way."

"What is it?"

"Before he and Jessica cook the raw rice, you cook the rice first." Mary said firmly.

Because she spoke too awkwardly, Kafir didn't understand for a while: "What do you mean?"

"Go to bed with him!" Mary said word by word as she approached her.

With a buzzing in his heart, Kafir's entire face burned.Circles were drawn in her eyes, and she stammered: "You... you said... go... go..."

"Remember, little brother is the channel to a man's heart." Mary grabbed her hand: "For that whore, the best way is to create an established fact and then conclude a marriage contract in a flash. Only in this way can you Completely trample on Jessica!"

Now she doesn't seem to be helping Kafir, but it seems that she is purely trying to fight against Jessica.

Kafir hasn't recovered from the shock: "Although...although you said so, you are not married yet, how can we do such a thing..."

"If you want to marry Saul, you have to do this kind of thing." Mary said without doubt, under the shadow, her face glowed with a gloomy light.

It's a pity that Kafir couldn't accept Mary's unrestrained actionist thinking.The circles in her eyes circled and circled, and then stopped suddenly.

"I, I'd better go back and think about it..." Standing up hastily, Kafir ran out as if fleeing.

"Really, there are still such pure people now, isn't that comparable to a fat Arab guy I met?" Mary couldn't stop her, thinking sullenly.

But soon, a sinister smile bloomed on her face: "But Kafir, since you are my good sister, how can I bear to see you fall in love? Hehe, Saul, you boy wait to thank me Bar…"

************************************************** ***************
Lord's Mansion, Sol's study.

"Have a banquet, why?" Saul asked in surprise.

"We managed to repel those undead, shouldn't we celebrate?" Mary said as a matter of course.

"I know this, I'm just wondering, why did you propose?" Sol looked at her strangely.

"Ahaha, because no one has mentioned it for so many days, I thought everyone had forgotten, so I reminded you." Mary smiled guiltyly.

Jessica said at this time: "This is a good idea. Now the restoration work of the territory is coming to an end, after the battle, and after so many days of exhaustion, it is really time to reward everyone."

"It's going to cost public money anyway, right?" Saul muttered.

"What?" Jessica glared at him.

"It's nothing, it should be done, it should be done." Sol hurriedly said, anyway, he has a lot of money now, and he really doesn't care about the little money.

"Then it's settled. I'll tell everyone right away." Mary was unexpectedly enthusiastic, and hurriedly left after speaking.

Looking at her back, Sol wondered, "What trick is she trying to do?"

"Who knows." Jessica pouted.

After thinking for a while, Sol also put aside his doubts, anyway, Mary will not harm everyone.

A few days later a great feast was held on the banks of the Ire.

In order to celebrate the victory of the war against the undead, Sol readily threw a large sum of gold coins, so the banquet was of a high standard, and the residents of the entire town, as well as foreign merchants, were invited.

Of course, the Adventurer's Guild was excluded because of anger.

That night, the lights along the Yire River were brightly lit, people were full of voices, songs and laughter were everywhere, and the heat of the food floated in the air, mixing with the fragrant dew at night to form a tempting aroma.

Five huge long tables with a length of more than ten meters were lined up, and they were filled with meat, bread, fruits, whole chickens and roast sheep, and all kinds of fine wines.

For these foods, Lovell used a large amount of reserves and made a dozen cooks work for a whole day to ensure the food for thousands of people.

After the baptism of war, whether it is the original residents, refugees, dwarves or businessmen who came to do business, the relationship has become closer.

People of various identities are smiling, walking around to get food at will, or gathering together to talk and laugh. The crowd bursts into bursts of laughter from time to time, and then gathers together with the gurgling water in the river, forming a joy covering the entire river bank. breath.

Just like accepting the Lulin refugees back then, Lovell is accepting a new batch of residents with his broad mind.

"Haha, it's easy to talk about it." Sol perfunctorily fled to a quiet place with a few businessmen who tried to get in touch with him.

"Phew, I finally know why those celebrities wear sunglasses when they go out. It's really tiring." With a sigh, Sol leaned casually under a tree and looked at the happy crowd.

This is my territory, this is my people, and I make them so happy.Thinking of these, Saul was filled with a sense of accomplishment.

Suddenly, Mary pulled Kafir and also got out from the crowd. While running, the two women looked back, as if they were hiding from someone.

Running to Saul, the two women panted together, and Mary said, "Oh my god, I finally got rid of it."

"What's wrong?" Saul asked strangely.

Mary pouted at Kafir: "She is so popular, there are a large group of boys around wherever she goes, and we managed to get away."

Sol snorted, there was something he didn't dare to say.Although Mary is also glamorous, no one in the territory dares to think of her. Apart from her personality, she and Hitches have long been known as "destroyers", so the young people in Lovell Although there were many of them, they all kept this fierce woman at arm's length.

Since talking with Mary last time, Kafir couldn't help but think about those things when he saw Sol, and he no longer had the previous carelessness.At this moment, beside Saul, his face was also blushing and his heart was pounding, and he was very shy.

Although he was surprised by her behavior, Sol didn't care.He said casually: "The food at the banquet is very good. Many of them are cooked by Marlene. The little girl's cooking is getting better and better."

Who would have thought that it would be fine if she didn't mention it, but Kafir remembered Mary's sharp phrase "cook raw rice into cooked rice", and his face became even more embarrassed.

Seeing Kafir's poor performance, Mary secretly reached out and gave her a hand: "Such a good opportunity, don't waste it." She followed her and said, "Talk slowly, I'll be right back." Then she got into the crowd.

Not long after, Mary came back with a large jug of wine, but at some point Jessica also came, and the two women and one man had a pleasant conversation.

Seeing Jessica, Mary frowned slightly, and then walked over as usual: "What's the point of just standing and chatting, come, drink."

After taking the wine glass from her, Sol just put it to his mouth. Thinking of Mary's overzealous performance for the banquet these days, he couldn't help but be careful.

"Chip." Thor whispered back.

"My lord." Like a ghost, Chip stepped out from behind Thor.

Both Mary and Kafir were taken aback, but only Jessica looked normal.Having been in contact with Chip for a long time, she knows that no matter when and where, this man is always silently guarding Sol behind his back.

"Is there something wrong with this wine?" Saul handed the glass to Chip.

"Hey, what do you mean?" Mary was furious.

Sol would not be polite to her, he said directly: "For you, I'd better be careful."

Putting the wine glass under his nose and sniffing it, he dipped his finger into a drop and put it in his mouth. Chip said without hesitation, "No problem, fine wine."

"Hmph!" Mary snorted with an ugly face, and poured for Jessica and Kafir again.

"You can have a drink too." Saul said to Chip.

Chip shook his head. "Sorry, I never drink."

This man... Sol couldn't help shaking his head, Chip was good at everything, but he was too rigid.But it is precisely because of this character that he makes people absolutely at ease, right?
"To the victory of the territory, and to our coming together, let's drink." Mary raised her glass.

"Cheers." Several people toasted at the same time.

After that, it was chatting, laughing, drinking, and the time passed quickly without knowing it.Under Mary's deliberate persuasion, several people kept drinking, and the empty wine bottles were thrown under their feet one by one.

Finally, they were all drunk.

"Ah ha ha, I...have enough...money. From now on... I will hold a banquet every day." Sol gesticulated with his tongue, full of arrogance.

"Chip, you... do you think it's okay?" He squinted his eyes and looked around, only to realize that Chip had quietly left at some point, as suddenly as he appeared.

Jessica gave him a blank look: "As a lord... how can this... be such a waste, it can't be done every day."

"Then...then what should we do?" Kafir was also dizzy.

"When...of course it's next...the next day." Jessica raised her head and drank the last drop of wine in the glass.

Seeing that the time was right, Mary decided to implement her plan.

She wrapped her left hand around Kafir's shoulders, and she went to pull Thor with her right hand, but she didn't know that her eyes were blurred, and she caught nothing. "What, what's going on?" The movement was too loud, and Mary felt that the trees around her were spinning.

Only then did she realize that although she was mainly trying to persuade the three of them, she did not drink less.No, I have to get it over with before I pass out.

Mary shook her head, pulled Sol with one hand, and Kafir with the other, and the three of them staggered and walked out.

"Where are you going?" Jessica asked from behind.

"Let's go for a walk, you can find someone to play with yourself." Mary said without looking back.

At this time, many people were already drunk, and the banks of the river were full of crooked men and women. The three swaggered through the middle, but no one noticed.

After a while, realizing that the three of them had never returned, Jessica dropped the wine glass in her hand, and walked out unsteadily.

She was very drunk, and the usually calm female steward unexpectedly couldn't walk steadily at this time, and she staggered and fell to the ground after walking a few steps.

The moment she fell, a hand stretched out from the side and held her up in time.

"Kip...Kip, where's Sol?" Jessica saw who was coming.

Chip said: "The lord just went home."

"Damn it, you didn't wait for me." Jessica muttered, "Then I have to go back."

Nodding without saying a word, Chip supported Jessica and walked towards the Lord's Mansion.
