103. Eat something good when you are in a bad mood(1/2)
At dawn, Lu Yu and Aesop took Moru to the Elf King.
The Elf King dismissed his attendants and asked Moru alone.
Although Lu Yu and Aesop were waiting in the courtyard, they could roughly guess what happened inside.
Moru, who already knew that he was bound to die, after hearing what Lu Yu said before, he no longer concealed anything, but told everything he knew, and bet the fate of his family on the mercy of the Elf King.
Time passed by, and everyone who had been busy all night received a hot breakfast from Grand's waiter, eating while waiting for the results.
After hearing that the murderer had been caught, the guards around the Elf King were all discussing in a whisper.
"Someone is coming!"
As soon as the Elf King's shout rang out, several elf mages with extraordinary skills broke through the door, fearing that they would be half a second late.
However, the elf mage who entered the room found that the elf king was fine, but Moru had lost his breath.
"Moru suddenly got angry, snatched my sword, and committed suicide."
Lu Yu was not surprised at all by this result. Although the flaws in the Elf King's words were obvious, who dared to talk too much?
The Elf King expressed his gratitude to Lu Yu for his help and then closed the door to thank the guests. According to the public, it was because he was frightened and felt a little unwell.
Although the Elf King was unwell, it did not affect the Elf's return journey.
Because he was going to Thoresen with the Elf King's team, Lu Yu went to the Knights of the Stars the night before leaving.
While waiting for Heather, Lu Yu met the boy who was hired by the cat-faced murderer to deliver a message with a bag of cooked food.
The boy first worked beside Xingchen's chef, and then rushed to help clean up.
After Heather came out, she found Lu Yu looking at the boy and said with a smile: "We plan to train him to be a reserve for the stars."
"oh?"
"His family used to be noble, but he offended some people, so he was reduced to begging."
Lu Yu remembered Xingchen's rules for recruiting people: only ordinary people.
"Sir Lu Yu didn't come here today just to talk about magic and have a heart-to-heart talk with me. Let's first say that our food in Xingchen is not as delicious as Feng Yu's, you will be disappointed."
Lu Yu covered his forehead: "In your heart, am I really that greedy?"
Not only did Heather nod, but in the chat room, Lulutis also said loudly, "That's right."
"In my opinion, even if the world is about to be destroyed one day, Sir Lu Yu will leisurely set up a pot and cook leisurely." Heather said.
Lulutis complained: "You are so picky about what you eat that it would put the princes and nobles to shame."
It was too exaggerated. Lu Yu felt that his eating was not as outrageous as what these two people said.
"To get down to business, I came here just to say goodbye to you and Hester, and to ask how you plan to deal with the cat-faced murderer."
Heather sighed: "I am also troubled by this matter."
Hand it over, it's not appropriate.
kill him…
Heather also didn't understand why the awkwardness and conflict that emerged deep inside her heart came from every time she had the thought of executing him.
Seeing Heather being so entangled, Lu Yu felt that there was a high probability that the cat-faced murderer would not be thrown out and used as a garbage basket for those doing black trade.
"Although I don't know if Thoresen can find the information to return to your hometown, I still wish you well in advance."
Heather shook hands with Lu Yu in a friendly manner and gave Lu Yu some scrolls.
"Although I know that seventh-level magicians may look down on me, you are a summoner after all, and you are not as good as me, a person who specializes in wind magic. Two acceleration scrolls, one quick-fire wind blade magic, and one
Windshield Barrier.”
Heather is also thoughtful, and the scrolls provided are all to make up for the summoner's weaknesses.
"This is my return gift to you. You really helped us Xingchen a lot during your time in Grand."
"It's better to pay more attention to Ramona when we go to Thoreson. I don't think the Elf King has any thoughts of dealing with her yet, and I don't know what the Elf King is thinking."
What do you think?
It's always hard to guess the king's thoughts, just like Grand V.
Everyone knew that his filial sons were fighting openly and secretly to become the heir apparent, and the entire capital of the Grand Empire began to take sides because of them.
Everyone knows that Cornwall is a guy who can't support the wall with mud. Although he has won over many people, it is only quantity but not quality.
Cornwall even got involved in the Imperial Knights, an institution managed by the emperor himself. Lu Yu didn't believe that a person who was firmly on the throne could not notice these little actions of his son.
Lu Yu couldn't tell whether it was because he was old and dim, or because he still had expectations for his son.
Lu Yu also sent his blessings to Heather.
"I hope your Majesty is not old and feeble-minded, and I hope Cornwall is not the one who comes to power in the end, otherwise I think your stars are quite miserable."
A person who feels from the bottom of his heart that the people at the bottom of the class are not worthy of breathing the same blue sky as the nobles. If he becomes the emperor, it will definitely be a disaster for the people of this land.
The elves of Thoresan set off from their base and were about to return to their own country.
This meeting, which lasted nearly half a month, re-established the basis for cooperation between the two countries and also allowed the two sides to understand each other again.
On the occasion of parting, many people of the Grand Empire spontaneously picked twigs from trees and threw them to the elves on the path that the Thoresan elves must pass on their return journey.
If the members of the escorting knights were not afraid that the murder of the elves would happen again, the two sides might be able to face each other and further complete this gift exchange ceremony that symbolizes peace.
Lu Yu, who was sitting in the carriage, looked at this scene and remembered the scene he saw at the palace dinner that day.
Looking at the smiles on the faces of the elves after picking up the twigs, and looking at the excited people of Glang not far away, Lu Yu felt that this scene was enough to comfort the souls who could no longer see the arrival of peace.
"Elven King, can you see that as a king, don't you have any responsibility?"
Because the Elf King is unwell, he refuses anyone to ride with him, even Ramona.
Ramona was sitting in the luxurious carriage, looking at the curtain in front of her, the emotions in her eyes constantly changing.
"He knows?"
"No, he probably doesn't know yet. Moru has received a lot of favors from me. For the sake of his family, he will not betray me..."
"Snatch his sword and commit suicide... Wasn't Moru restrained with magic power at that time? Or did he break free?"
"That means he really didn't notice it, right?"
Ramona's hand holding the wine glass was already sweating, and the self-pulling back and forth in her mind made her very irritable.
Since Moru's death, the Elf King has been ill, and is said to be frightened to the outside world. Even Ramona can't visit him.
Without contact with the king, she could not confirm his thoughts, which made her uneasy unable to subside.
All the problems stem from that inexplicable seventh-level magician. If he hadn't appeared, Moru would have killed everyone and escaped unscathed even if he was discovered by Aesop.
But Ramona could do nothing but hate Lu Yu.
Lu Yu is too powerful, and now he has to lead a team to the Silent Mountains to solve a problem that has troubled Thoresen for many years. Even if she wants to deal with Lu Yu, she is powerless.
It feels bad to have things out of control. Ramona, who has no sense of security, can only drink to suppress her inner uneasiness.
With the escort of the Knights, the route was smooth, and the monster pulling the cart was of good physical strength. In only four days, the special envoy team reached the border area between the Grand Empire and Thoresen.
Lu Yu carefully observed the outer walls of this border city.
There are no traces of bows and arrows, no cracks caused by magic bombing, and the winding lines on it are densely intertwined, as if thousands of arthropods have crawled on it.
The living forest of elves once climbed up this high wall, and Lu Yu could even imagine those thick vines growing rapidly, corroding the surroundings like a carpet of bacteria.
Lu Yu's admiration was greeted by Lulutis's show off.
"The fact that it has been eroded by vegetation like this only shows that the defenders of the Grand Empire will not set fire to it. If I were here, no matter how many vines I put on it, it would just be fuel."
Arson Master Lulutis regrets the quality of the Grand Empire's defenders.
Traveling all the way, the entire convoy didn't get much rest, so the special envoy chose to rest here for a while and work harder tomorrow to enter Thoresen in one go.
Lu Yu, who was really greedy, asked Sigrid to go to the city to buy a sheep and gave her special instructions.
"All the internal organs must be brought back and are not allowed to be thrown away."
"One more thing, I asked the stall owner to wash the intestines a few more times. I'm afraid that the stuffing will come out of the intestines...what, if you don't want to wash them, then go to another store. Whoever is enthusiastic will buy it."
After Lulutis became a magician, she was out of touch with ordinary people's lives. She always said that she was the daughter of an ordinary person, but some of her words, deeds and behavior were not ordinary at all. If she hadn't encountered Lu Yu teasing her all day long, she would not have been there at all.
Not aware of it.
When she first met Lu Yu, Lulutis was determined not to accept ingredients such as cow heads and sheep heads. When she was asked to carry the cow heads, she pretended to have forgotten to move them, hoping to dispel Lu Yu's idea of eating the cow heads.
After Lu Yu's tireless correction, Lulutis successfully aligned with ordinary people in terms of eating.
If you don't eat offal, that's the stinky habit of magicians, nobles and other upper-class people. If you are a commoner who doesn't even stutter, what kind of offal can you use? Even if it's moldy food, they can pounce on it and tear it apart with a pair of green eyes.
bite.
No, when Lulutis heard that Lu Yu wanted to buy a sheep, her first reaction was: "You want to eat roast lamb?"
Hearing that Lu Yu asked for offal, Lulutis asked again: "Are the sheep intestines delicious?"
This tastes just right.
