Lenburg? Baron Brignais's illegitimate son or Godson lives in Lenburg? Lumian. In addition to doubts, many ridiculous guesses flashed through his mind:

Gang leader Baron Brignais attaches great importance to education and sent his most cherished child to the country of "God of Knowledge and Wisdom" early...

Lumian looked at the little boy and asked casually, "At your age, shouldn't you continue to study at Lenburg? Overall, the education there is much better than that at Trier."

The little boy's expression suddenly became extremely vivid:

"I don't want to, I don't want to go to school every day, do homework until late every day, and take exams every month!"

It sounds a bit scary...Lumian Imagine that kind of life.

At least he couldn't accept it.

After nodding in agreement, Lumian pretended to be casual and asked, "Is the live Rat delicious?"

The little boy returned to his more calm state:

"It's not delicious, but you don't have the right to be picky about food when you're hungry. I don't want to wait until noon to go to the kitchen to eat. The real enjoyment is always the food cooked by excellent Cook. It's best not to have a serious hunger..."

After explaining a few sentences, he seemed to feel that he was acting a bit too mature and quickly changed his words:

"Who told your kitchen to wait until almost noon to prepare food!"

The point is not whether this is good or not... When I was a wanderer, I never thought about eating Rat alive. Of course, the main reason was that I couldn't catch it. If I really caught it, I would at least find a way to make a fire, peel and roast it... This guy can catch Rat with his bare hands. His strength or luck is not bad... Now it's only an hour before noon, so I can't help it? Lumian The more I look at it, the more suspicious this little boy becomes.

He asked funnyly, "Brignais didn't give you enough to eat? Do you need me to help you go to Police Headquarters to accuse him of child abuse?"

"Except for urging me to do my homework, he is very good at everything else. He will let me have a meal every two hours, and he will also prepare extra cakes, cookies, Grilled Meat and pies so that I can eat when I am hungry in the middle of the night." After saying this, the little boy subconsciously licked his lower lips.

Are you a pig? Lumian I never ate so hard when I was growing up or when I was Library.

Moreover, this guy doesn't look fat, he can only be said to be strong.

The next second, the little boy's eyes changed slightly and he spoke very quickly, "Maybe it's because studying consumes too much of my energy. I have to eat so many meals to keep my brain active."

Is there no such thing as "explanation is concealment" in Lenburg's education? You explain it so deliberately, and I think there is something wrong with your appetite... Eating so much has not improved your brain... Where did the nutrition go? Lumian said with a smile, "Since Brignais didn't intentionally starve you, then why did you still eat Rat and Steak raw?"

The little boy replied with some annoyance, "I ran away without breakfast today, and I didn't have morning tea either!"

Are you so hungry that you want to eat Rat raw? If you starve for half a day or a day, will even the people on the road want to eat it? Lumian took out a Iron Gray and Military Flask from the inside of the clothes with his right hand.

His left palm also stretched out from his trouser pocket, helped unscrew the lid of the wine bottle, and then inserted it back in.

Lumian lifted the Iron Gray metal wine bottle, took a deep sniff of the fragrance, and asked with a smile, "Would you like a sip?"

Gulu! The little boy's throat squirmed and he swallowed his saliva.

He replied with great difficulty, "I'm not yet a minor, I'm just a kid!"

I have already drank wine and liked it very much...Lumian made a judgment and Gulu took a sip of strong wine.

He didn't let Military Flask leave his mouth and asked slightly vaguely, "Which Deity do you believe in?"

"Why do you ask this?" the little boy asked warily.

Seeing that he didn't behave excessively, Lumian secretly breathed a sigh of relief, took another sip of strong wine, and made a gurgling sound.

He let Military Flask leave his mouth and said with a clear smile, "As a 'God of Steam and Machinery' believer of Devout, I must verify the beliefs of people of unknown origin.

"Steam is on top!"

This time, Lumian no longer has the ambiguity of speaking with wine in his mouth.

The little boy shook his head subconsciously:

"It's useless. If I say I believe in Deity, do I really believe in Deity?"

"Orthodox God Church Believers who are not quite Devout can indeed claim which Deity they believe in at will, but these people are not harmful. What I am guarding against are the believers of Evil God. They are fanatical and not harmful. A Rationality will not pretend to have his own beliefs in order to deceive others, thinking that is not enough of a Devout performance, and is a Blasphemy behavior." Lumian observed the little boy's reaction.

The little boy instinctively retorted:

"That's not the case. In order to complete their sacred tasks, some believers of Evil God will actively disguise themselves as believers of Orthodox God. They can pray, listen to scriptures, participate in Mass, and recite other Deity's Honorific Name without any psychological barriers. As long as they repent to their Lord afterwards, there will be no problem..."

At this point, the little boy suddenly paused, and Lumian looked at me and I looked at you, their eyes met, and they were silent for a long time.

After a while, he took a bite of Steak and took the initiative to introduce himself:

"I am a believer of 'God of Knowledge and Wisdom'. We Church and Devout believers all have a habit of pointing out the Error in the other person's words, just like we did just now, yes, just like we just did!"

Lumian looked at this guy deeply for a few seconds and said, "'God of Knowledge and Wisdom'Church What are the commonly used prayers?"

The little boy said reflexively, "I have just said that Evil God believers can recite Orthodox God and Honorific Name with repentance. If you use those prayers, you will not be able to distinguish other people's true beliefs. Unless you are a 'Eternal Blazing Sun' Church person, you have notarized it in advance and cannot lie..."

With that said, the little boy fell silent again, staring blankly at Lumian.

After a few seconds, he stretched out his right hand that was not holding Steak, held his head and said, "May wisdom be with you!"

Such a stupid guy should not be a spy sent by some Evil God... Judging from his IQ, he is really a child and a picture book... Lumian almost couldn't control his expression just now. He took a deep breath and let the little air flow in his mouth to soothe his facial muscles.

"Indeed." He agreed with the little boy's words in a smiling voice, then imitated the other person, touched his head with the bottom of Iron Gray's Military Flask, and said meaningfully, "May wisdom be with you!"

Without waiting for the little boy to respond, Lumian said in a Temptation tone, "Would you like to go to the second floor Café and I'll treat you to a dinner? The Cook here is not bad."

The little boy swallowed again:

"You won't betray me, will you?"

"You can always follow me, so I won't have the chance to betray you." Lumian began to test whether the other party's IQ level and appearance age are consistent under the temptation of delicious food, and whether they will be lower, "And we just ban 'God of Knowledge and Wisdom'Church preaches in Intis and establishes Church. Believers of 'God of Knowledge and Wisdom' are not prohibited from entering the country. Trier has a Lenburg Chamber of Commerce."

The little boy thought for a second and said, "Okay."

Lumian glanced at him, took out his left palm, closed the lid of the wine bottle, and stuffed the Iron Gray container into the inside of Brown Jacket again.

Then, he pressed his head again:

"May wisdom be with you!"

After saying that, Lumian turned around and walked into the stairs.

The little boy followed him and politely closed the cellar door Deep Brown.

Seeing Lumian turn around and look at him, he explained seriously, "If you don't close it, the food inside will easily spoil."

"Yes." Lumian looked away and continued to go up the stairs.

The little boy followed him closely, watching his every move, always on guard against him coming into contact with the people around him and betraying his intelligence.

Lumian took him through the kitchen to Café on the second floor and ordered a set meal.

Not long after, Pan-Fried Veal Steak, Roasted Eel, Roasted Leg of Lamb, Chicken Pie, Red Wine Cream and other foods were served one after another.

Lumian sat there, watching the little boy quickly devouring the food as if his stomach capacity had no upper limit.

He even commented a few words from time to time:

"Little Steak is fried well, but the meat quality itself is not very good...

"The sweet sauce eliminates the fishy smell of the eel itself, but the problem is that it is greasy...

"The lamb leg was roasted to a perfect heat, browned on the outside and tender on the inside. The choice of spices was not perfect, with too much cumin...

"..."

Just eat, why are you talking so much...Lumian quietly watched the little boy eating a full table of meals with a satisfied expression.

After another quarter of an hour, Baron Brignais wearing Medium-Height Silk Top Hat and diamond Ring appeared at the entrance to the second floor.

The little boy turned around in shock, took a look, and then looked back at Lumian.

Lumian smiled slightly and said, "You don't think I'm the only one who knows you here, do you?"

The little boy was stunned for a moment and fell into silence.

Baron Brignais walked up to Lumian and said with undisguised relaxation, "Thank you, Charles."

"I just happened to find him eating secretly in the cellar." Lumian responded with a warm attitude.

Baron Brignais glanced at him, turned to the little boy and said, "Ludwig, let's go back."

The little boy Ludwig said nothing, quickly finished the remaining food and stood up.

"Charles, I'll come back to you later." Baron Brignais nodded to Lumian.

Lumian was sitting on the chair opposite, watching Baron Brignais holding Ludwig and planning to leave Café, so he smiled and said:

"Remember to pay for the meal."

Baron Brignais was startled for a moment, and Eyes moved slightly, seeming to be shaken by his original judgment.

He didn't say much, took out his wallet containing a lot of Banknotes and paid for Ludwig's meal.

Watching silently as the big one and the little one disappeared at the top of the stairs, Lumian leaned back on the chair, lowered his voice, and said to himself, "Termiboros, where exactly is the encounter you mentioned?"
