"Interesting, interesting." Val, who was also drunk, laughed at the side.
During the drinking session, the estrangement between the dwarf blacksmith and the dwarf jeweler was eliminated, and they felt like they had met at a late date.
Moreover, Zeus also mentioned with regret that if Val hadn't been too thin, he would have wanted to marry his distant cousin with a big beard.
Dick Hearing the corner of the mouth twitching, the bearded... cousin?
As expected, it was rejected by Val, who said that the aesthetics of dwarfs are closer to humans than to dwarves.
"I would also like to add," said Kebi on the side, "our continent also has the largest academic college - Oxenfurt University, which was established in Sarleon's Long River Town.
"And there is a treasure in the entire continent - Magic Academy, built in the center of Great Inland Lake, don't you think so? Miss Xiya."
"That's right." Xiya replied with a smile.
The master blacksmith also drank too much and no longer addressed Kebi as young master, "You still lack one more power."
"What force?"
"Of course it's Misty Mountains."
"Hey, Misty Mountains hasn't attacked our Northern Kingdoms for nearly 50 years. I really forgot about it."
"You humans have short lifespans, unlike us dwarves. When I was a child, I saw those Misty Mountains barbarians. They came to us one by one, roaring on wild boars, and grabbing things."
"What is Misty Mountains?" Dick asked.
"Dick, people usually say that our Northern Kingdoms is the coldest place. But actually it is not, Misty Mountains is." Fisher on the side explained slowly.
"Those barbarians in the depths of the Misty Mountains live in a harsh environment. When they really can't afford food, they will climb over the mountains and come to us to rob us.
"But since we Northern Kingdoms killed their leader 50 years ago, there has been no news about them for a long time."
"Maybe they will attack at some time." The dwarf said with a red face.
Then he seemed to realize that he had said the wrong thing, and said quickly, "Bah, bah, I'm such a crow, I'm just talking nonsense, hahahaha."
The men around him didn't care, they just muttered a few words and started drinking again.
Kebi left his seat at some point, and came to the dwarf and dwarf with Fisher. The four of them started drinking together, bursting into laughter from time to time, and threw Dick aside.
Barbara on the opposite side raised his glass and stretched it towards Dick.
Dick raised his glass naturally when he saw this, and touched it lightly, moving the glass down a little to show respect.
Barbara took a sip of the wine in the glass and said, "Dick, you are very good. No wonder my apprentice likes you very much."
Xiya on the side blushed slightly when he heard this.
Then Barbara said, "You can pass my test.
"As long as you have your share of rewards, don't covet fame, love money but don't be greedy for money.
"In order to save my apprentice, you actually gave up your own life, and you also looked for opportunities to fight back. You were smart and decisive. You did a good job."
Dick has now completely concluded that it turned out that it was not Dreamscape before, but really the illusion cast by the illusion master in front of him.
However, Barbara had left with Xiya outside the city before. He might not have known that the queen had granted him the title, so he asked Kebi to grant it to him again in the illusion.
"Just to test me? I suffered a lot in the illusion." Dick was a little angry.
"Young man, don't be angry. Although I made you fall into an illusion, it didn't cause any harm to your body, and didn't you also get some benefits?
"If I guess correctly, your most serious injuries are almost healed, right?"
Dick thought of the wound on his shoulder that was about to heal, and realized, "That was done by you too?"
"Of course, I wanted to give you just a test, but Xiya she refused. Although I am a master of illusion, I still have some experience in certain spells that speed up the healing of wounds."
Xiya on the side lowered her head and said nothing, but her ears were obviously red.
"What are you talking about?" Kebi looked over in confusion.
"Nothing." Dick replied.
"By the way, Master Kebi, it's getting late, so Xiya and I will go back first." Barbara and Xiya stood up.
"Are you leaving so early? Let's... drink for a while longer." Zeus, the blacksmith on the side, said drunkenly.
"No, you men can drink as much as you want. By the way, Dick, don't you want to give it to us?"
Dick stood up, ignored the four drunkards next to him, and walked outside the castle courtyard with the two warlocks.
But Barbara didn't look at Dick. He just chanted a mantra in a low voice and drew an oval circle in the air with his left arm.
Then, a door-sized aperture flashing blue-purple appeared in front of him.
Barbara turned around and said, "I don't like walking, so I teleported directly back to Xiya's residence. Goodbye Witcher."
After that, she stepped into the circle.
"Goodbye, Master Barbara."
Dick The tone is respectful:
Barbara Since she is not hostile to herself and treats her injuries, then she is a good person!
And her strength is unfathomable. Maybe when the two of them can cooperate, Barbara can also become a more powerful worker..., partner!
As the circle slowly becomes smaller, Barbara also disappears.
"Is that a portal?" Dick asked.
"Yes, my master doesn't even want to walk a few hundred meters. It's true."
Dick lowered his eyes, "She actually wants us to talk, right? Xiya."
Xiya nodded slowly, "Dick, you also heard what my master said. She didn't mean to target you, but she was a little worried about me."
"I understand.
"I just have some questions."
"Say, Dick."
"Since your master can teleport spells, why not teleport them directly when you are defending the city?"
"Dick, the teleportation spell is not as powerful as you think. It can only teleport a few kilometers at a time, and the more people who want to teleport, the more mana the caster needs." Xiya explained.
"That's it. Thank you for clarifying my doubts."
"Then Dick you..." Xiya raised his head expectantly, "What exactly do you think of me?"
"I..." Dick hesitated for a moment, then said, "I hope we can all live well."
Xiya stared at Dick for a long time, but the latter did not speak again, and the girl was a little disappointed.
"... Well, I also hope that we can live well, don't you have anything else to say?"
Dick is speechless.
It's not that he doesn't want to say it, but he didn't have any relationship between a man and a woman before he died suddenly from overwork in his previous life. Faced with Xiya's confession, he really didn't know how to speak appropriately.
After all, it was the girl who took the initiative. If she said something wrong, it would hurt the other person's heart.
"Then I'm leaving."
Xiya waited for a while, then slowly walked out of the courtyard. After a few steps, a slightly anxious voice came from behind:
"Xiya! I hope we live well - together."
Xiya turned his head and smiled brightly. Although he said no more words, his bright eyes were shining.
Then he turned around and walked away.
The pace is much brisker.
After a long time, Dick finally looked away and returned to the castle hall, only to see that all those people were drunk on the ground.
The maid who had previously received Dick and her sisters were supporting a few people and handling the leftovers from the dinner party.
Seeing Dick arriving, the maid said, "Master Dick, please go back and rest."
Dick nodded, walked directly upstairs, opened the door, and found that the house was tidy, the buckets had been removed, and the previously stained floor had been wiped spotless.
It must have been that the maid came to clean it during the banquet.
Take off your clothes and lie down on the soft bed again.
After a while, the drunken demon hunter fell asleep again.
