"Miss, I've heard that a group of saboteurs has appeared in the caravan Sir Walade sent to Storm Territory."
"They wanted to sabotage the mines of Storm Territory and kill the Sprite, but they were eventually captured by Sir Nalant!"
Ever since Nalant gave her young lady two gifts, Lina stopped referring to Nalant as that good-for-nothing second son.
After all, she occasionally gets to use that perfume herself; Lina wouldn't do something like this—getting the benefit and then speaking ill of the person behind their back.
"A destroyer? Then Baron Andrew is the one to deal with!" The importance of Sprite to a territory goes without saying, Stella naturally understands this, especially in Storm Territory of Nalant.
"Yes, miss, and several of the saboteurs were captured alive. They confessed that Baron Quinte of the Blackiron Earldom sent them!!"
"However, Sir Walade claims he knew nothing about it, and the Earl has already taken the matter to the Noble Council!"
"Oh!" Stella nodded after listening, without saying anything more. At most, she just listened to these political matters with curiosity.
I never expected that Nalant would be so embroiled in so much trouble. First, he was assigned to the Land of Misfortune, and now people from the neighboring Blackiron Territory are trying to sabotage him.
"Miss, come and have some white bread! This is white bread with added White Sugar!" Lina only then remembered her business; she had just gone to the main castle to get white bread and that's when she heard those news.
"Hmm!" Stella became interested when she heard about White Sugar and white bread. She'd been really enjoying things made with White Sugar lately, like White Sugar sugar bread, White Sugar steamed eggs, and White Sugar milk...
Just as Stella picked up a soft white bread with White Sugar and was about to eat it, Stella saw Lina staring at her with wide eyes and a look of longing on her face. Stella smiled and handed her one, saying, " Lina, let's eat together!"
"Thank you, Miss!" Lina, no longer caring about being reserved, accepted the sugar with great anticipation, saying as she ate, "Miss, you said this delicious White Sugar was also obtained from the Sprite's mine! That Baron Boris is so lucky!"
"Moreover, the cook said that the castle is running low on White Sugar, and it seems that it can no longer be bought outside. The nobles are willing to pay two gold coins for a jar!"
"Two gold coins a jar? If White Sugar is scarce, this price isn't too expensive! However, Baron Boris is indeed lucky. If it really comes from Sprite, then he could earn at least ten years' worth of profits and accumulate untold wealth."
The master and servant then enjoyed their white bread while chatting.
After breakfast, Nalant took little Sherry to the stables.
I don't know if it's also because of Sherry, but yesterday Nalant discovered that Little Fireball Two through five were all able to spew out black smoke.
This indicates that the little guys will soon be able to unleash fireballs as well.
"Roar!"
When Nalant and the others arrived outside the stable, the female Fire-Spitting Lizard immediately stood up and growled.
The mother Fire-Spitting Lizard has now mostly recovered from her injuries, but to Nalant's relief, she did not escape with her baby Fire-Spitting Lizard.
Roar!
Several Little Fireball excitedly surrounded Nalant, even more so than the mother Fire-Spitting Lizard.
" Sherry, it's your turn to feed the mother Fire-Spitting Lizard today!"
"Yes, sir!"
Although Sherry would accompany them in the past, it was always Nalant who fed them personally.
After all, the female Fire-Spitting Lizard somewhat unpredictable, Nalant was worried that something unexpected might happen.
Sherry occasionally helps feed the few baby Fire-Spitting Lizard.
But things are different now, Nalant wants to see what happens when Sherry feeds the female Fire-Spitting Lizard.
Sherry then offered the chunk of Whale meat to the female Fire-Spitting Lizard, Fire-Spitting Lizard, without any hesitation, opened her mouth slightly, waiting for Sherry to put the meat in.
Soon, Sherry placed the two-pound chunk of meat into the mother Fire-Spitting Lizard's mouth, which was full of sharp teeth.
Nalant was about to take out other fish meat to share with the Little Fireball when he suddenly saw the mother Fire-Spitting Lizard's massive body tremble.
roar!
After the female Fire-Spitting Lizard ate the piece of meat that Sherry fed her, it let out a low growl, and then its head began to sway as if it were in a very comfortable state.
"Wow, that's incredible!"
The next moment, the female Fire-Spitting Lizard closed her mouth and nuzzled Sherry with her head, her eyes full of kindness and her desire to please her was obvious.
Of course, the reason the mother Fire-Spitting Lizard reacted so strongly was because she was smarter and more sensitive than the Little Gray and Little Fireball, and could immediately sense the benefits that Sherry brought.
"If I had known the little girl had this skill, I wouldn't have been worried at all!" Nalant was naturally delighted to see this. He had been worried all the time that the female Fire-Spitting Lizard would change her mind and run away after recovering from her injuries, but now that Sherry was here, there was no need to worry at all.
Given the intelligence of a female Fire-Spitting Lizard, knowing that Sherry could enhance its strength, it would certainly be reluctant to leave.
" Sherry, you stay here and feed it! I'm taking the Little Fireball outside to practice my spells!"
Nalant left Sherry alone in the stables while he took five Little Fireball and went to the pasture.
" Little Fireball One, breathe fire at that pile of hay!" Nalant commanded Fireball One, a grilled oyster in hand.
Upon hearing this, Fireball One, already accustomed to orders, immediately fixed its gaze on the haystack more than ten meters away.
roar!
The next moment, with a roar from the Little Fireball, a fiery red light instantly illuminated the arena.
Whoosh!
With a whooshing sound, a fireball struck a haystack not far away.
boom!
The dry haystack was instantly exploded by the fireball machine, and the field was immediately filled with burning straw.
"Hiss! Fireball Number One, you can actually spit out fireballs now!" Nalant was surprised by the series of delightful surprises today.
Yesterday, Little Fireball One could only spew out a puff of black smoke, but today it has actually become a complete fireball.
Although the fireball was only the size of an ordinary person's fist, as long as it was a spell, its attack power was not weak. Even Title Knight wouldn't dare to take a direct hit from it.
"Roar!" Perhaps it was the surprise of seeing Nalant, or perhaps it was because it could now use magic, Little Fireball One was also excited, wagging its long tail and roaring at Nalant. Of course, its eyes were always on the grilled oysters.
"Very good. Since you successfully cast the spell, these grilled oysters are yours!"
In the past few days, the fish-men and sea monsters have completely taken over the beach, and oyster production has completely stopped.
These days, the little guys' grilled oysters are being limited; unless they put in a lot of effort, Nalant won't easily give them any.
Nalant put down the grilled oysters, and Fireball One immediately started munching on them, while the other little Little Fireball watched Nalant with longing eyes.
Nalant didn't hold back and proceeded to train them one by one.
The other Little Fireball were naturally not as fast as Little Fireball One, and could only spew out some black smoke.
After feeding the Fire-Spitting Lizard, Nalant headed straight for the new mill.
He then instructed Sherry to return to the castle and fetch Vivian and Catherine.
Later, Nalant will take the three women to John the blacksmith to have three rapiers custom-made. He had seen one of them at John's blacksmith shop that day.
This proves that John the blacksmith could also forge such unconventional rapiers.
