While walking, Angelet was also slowly digesting some of the information Agua just gave.
He spoke out and gave Angele a small book, which recorded the introductory knowledge of the metal system. It was also the memory notes and spell book that Aguya carried with him.
After all, other people cannot memorize any knowledge permanently like Angele. Others need to constantly review and memorize previous knowledge. So it is common for this kind of little book to stay with you.
Like ordinary people, Angelet quickly entered Emma City amid the noisy motorcade and crowds of people.
The Nunnally family members guarding the city gate quickly recognized him. After some briefings, Angelet didn't wander around the city for long before following the guards back to the Nunnally family mansion.
"What??!!" Kelly had a bandage on her shoulder and stood up from the chair with a face full of shock and anger. The sharp voice was almost heard by the maid passing by outside the door, and she looked over here curiously.
.
"Lord Angele, are you sure you are not kidding me?" Kelly suppressed her emotions and asked again.
There were only two of them in the entire hall. Angele sat alone on a chair and drank Sidian milk tea slowly.
"I'm not kidding." He put down the translucent glass cup. "My goal has been achieved. The Stephen family gave me what I wanted, and also gave me an additional price in exchange for my withdrawal from this dispute. How?
?Are you dissatisfied?"
"Of course... no." Kelly's face turned pale and her voice trembled a little. She was trying to suppress her anger. "Since you have decided, I will send someone to take you back to the academy."
"No, I want to stay here for two more days, and I have some other things to deal with. In addition, I also want to take a leisurely stroll around this small town. There should be a good celebration here in a few days, and I want to take a good look at it.
Look what the celebration here is like." Angelet smiled calmly.
"Then I hope you have a good time." Kelly replied in a low voice.
"Then I'll take my leave first." Angelet stood up and strode out of the living room.
After a while, there was a faint sound of the tea cup being smashed from behind.
Early morning three days later
On the blue-gray street. At the corner of the street, there is a small house made of gray stone bricks. The chimney on the top is emitting thick white smoke. The front door of the house is a small black round arched wooden door. Some small white flowers are planted beside the door.
.
A slender man in black clothes was standing in front of the house. He was all in black and wearing a black round hat.
A gust of cold wind blew by, and on the deserted street behind the man, a small black carriage slowly passed by, the bell on the horse's neck ringing all the way.
The man gently took off his black hat, revealing a young face. His short brown hair was soft and slightly scattered in the wind. It was Angelet.
The ringing of the carriage bells became more and more distant.
Angelet patted the dust on his body with his hat. He walked up and stood in front of the door and knocked lightly.
Boom, boom, boom.
After waiting for a while, there was no movement inside.
"Is there anyone there?" Angelet asked in a deep voice. He knocked again.
"Coming, coming." A faint response came from inside the door.
With a click, the wooden door opened to the outside. A middle-aged man with black hair stood at the door with a smile.
"Who are you?" The smile on the man's face slowly faded.
"I am a friend of Gondor, can I come in for a visit?" Angelet said with a smile.
"Of course, of course." The man nodded and smiled again. He turned his head and shouted behind him, "Gondor, come here quickly. Your friend is here to see you!"
"Coming! Coming right away!" Gondor's voice came immediately.
Angelet was invited into the house. He began to slowly look at this small and medium-sized house.
There is a brown-red wooden floor, and a red fire is still burning in the fireplace made of black stone. Several wide wooden benches form a square, and a small wooden coffee table is placed in the middle. They are all made of mahogany. There is also a small pot on the coffee table.
White flowers.
There are no special decorations in the living room, only an oil painting hanging above the fireplace. It depicts a knight riding a horse galloping on the grassland. It is still a black and white painting style, and the color palette seems a bit rough.
The middle-aged man wore a white apron, and his appearance was somewhat similar to Gondor. He wiped his hands on the apron.
"Sit down first. Gondor will be here soon. I still have to go to the kitchen."
"Okay, go and do your work." Angelet nodded politely and sat down on the wooden sofa.
The man had just entered the kitchen room. A small figure came out of a bedroom on the right. He was wearing gray cloth pajamas and seemed to be still sleeping.
"Who is here, daddy?" The figure turned out to be a petite girl. She looked about four or five years old, with waist-length black hair. One of her white hands was rubbing her eyes and the other was holding a corner of her pajamas.
The little girl didn't seem to be awake yet, her hair was messy and fluffy.
"I'm your brother's friend." The man's voice came from the kitchen.
The little girl put down her little hand curiously, glanced at Angele a few times, and asked in a sweet voice, "What about brother?"
"In the bedroom, go and ask him to come out. It's time to eat."
"Oh~~~"
The little girl walked towards a bedroom on the side in a daze. Suddenly one foot stepped on the other.
puff!
She fell directly to the ground and fell hard.
Mom~~~ It hurts so much!!" The harsh crying suddenly made the whole small house noisy.
Angelet looked at the little girl speechlessly. Being able to trip himself up was actually a talent.
At this time, Gondor opened the door from another bedroom and came out. As soon as he raised his head, he saw Angele sitting on the bench and was stunned.
Why are you here?" He ignored his sister's cry. "Oh!! By the way! You're here to get that, right? The teacher has already prepared it for you." He patted his head and immediately remembered what he had done in the woods earlier.
Agreement. The knowledge and information on the metal spell model can be explained in a short amount of time.
"You'd better help your sister up first." Angelet pointed at the little girl who was throwing herself on the ground and crying.
Only then did Duo realize what he was doing. He quickly ran over and helped his sister up on the ground. He coaxed her softly and rubbed her sore hands and knees.
It took a long time to calm down his sister's harsh cries. Then Gondor stood up and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Please wait a moment, I will get it right away." Gondor then spoke to Angele. Then he turned and ran back to his room. He quickly ran out again, holding a thin brown leather book in his hand.
.
He came over and handed Angelet his hands.
Angelet took it and glanced at it. The book was relatively rough. There was no decoration on the cover, only a line of title: Principles of Metal.
It is written in the ancient Byronic language. Legend has it that Byronic language has some kind of mysterious power, and was also called Devil's language in ancient times. It has strange shapes. In many cases, some special patterns and symbols will automatically form after writing.
The cover of the book is like this. The Principles of Metal is written in Byronic language. It is a black millipede crawling twistedly on the cover. In the middle of the millipede's body, a red eye is open, quietly watching anyone who looks at the cover.
People look extremely mysterious and strange.
Angelet gently squeezed the texture of the book. It was very soft and thin. I don't know what kind of leather it was. The book was not big. In the hand, it was almost like a folded cloth. It was very light and thin.
"Now that I got the book, I'll take my leave." Angelet stood up.
"Don't be impatient. Stay and eat before leaving." Gondor said hurriedly. "My father made a lot of delicious food. I believe you will definitely like it! When I came to the town before, the most picky dwarfs all treated me.
Dad’s craftsmanship is full of praise!”
"Dwarf? You mean halfling, right?" Angelet smiled.
"That's right! He's a halfling." Gondor scratched his head and giggled. He was exactly like a little boy who didn't grow up, even though he looked similar to Angelet.
Angelet was originally planning to leave. Obtaining the principle of metal was his purpose.
But after the enthusiasm of the Gondor family to persuade him to stay, he couldn't believe it. He actually stayed.
A group of people were sitting around the coffee table in the living room.
There are four large dishes on the coffee table.
A plate of cabbage meat rolls with some black dots like sesame sprinkled on top. I don’t know what they are, but they smell delicious.
A plate of golden pancakes, cut into triangles and stacked high. The fillings inside are green vegetables and carrot-colored diced meat.
The other two plates, one is red foie gras drizzled with black sauce. The other is a colorful vegetable and fruit salad, without any oil, which looks very refreshing.
Four dishes were placed on the coffee table. A small plate and a bowl were placed in front of each of the four people. Iron forks and knives were placed crosswise on the side.
Waves of aroma wafted from the coffee table.
"Come on, come on, try my craftsmanship." Gondor's father smiled and kept picking up dishes for Angelet. "Since we are little Gondor's friends, we will come to play at home more often when we have the opportunity. Gondor, this kid,
Ever since his mother left, he has been in a depressed mood and doesn't have many good friends. Except for that little guy Winnie, I haven't seen him invite anyone to his home."
Angelet was speechless as he watched more and more vegetable pancakes in his bowl and plate, until it was almost full.
"Enough, enough, there are too many, and I can't eat so much." He kept giving in to Gondor's father's enthusiasm.
The little girl of several years old on one side was eating pancakes and staring at him curiously.
Gondor, on the other hand, was burying his head in his mouth and eating vigorously, as if he didn't care about anything but eating. After a while, the large stack of pancakes placed in front of him had lost more than half. It looked like it weighed almost half a catty.
All the pancakes went into his stomach.
For some reason, Angelet suddenly felt warm while sitting at the coffee table.
In such a warm and harmonious atmosphere, you can sit quietly at the table and eat hot meals. There is no intense study and research, no elegant etiquette requirements, and no lonely loneliness.
This was the first time he felt such an environment. The Gondor family's unadulterated and welcoming environment made his body and mind relax as never before.
"Although I don't think I'm a good person, it feels good to enjoy this kind of warmth occasionally." Angelet's mind flashed through all the scenes in his life since his rebirth.
Castle, grassland, ship, college.
Fight, fight, fight!!
Study, study, study, study.
Day after day, it seems like there is no end.
Looking at the warm smiling faces of the Gondor family, Angelet suddenly missed his father.
He forked a piece of cabbage roll and put it gently into his mouth. The slightly sweet vegetables were crunchy, and the minced meat sandwiched in the middle was fried to a crispy taste, giving it a rich aroma when chewed. It was soft on the outside and crispy and hard on the inside.
Angelet glanced at Gondor, forked another piece of pancake and put it into his mouth.
Salty, crispy and hard on the outside, soft and tender on the inside. A strong fragrance almost poured into his heart. To be continued
