The banquet of the dwarves is not as magnificent as that of the human race. There are no crystal lamps hanging high above the head, nor are there musicians and bards playing and singing. There is neither the extremely complicated etiquette of the elves, nor the exquisite dresses and small dresses. Wild, rough, and noisy, this is Boom's direct feeling at this moment, and it is also the most realistic portrayal of this banquet. Although Christine is still smiling, the eyebrows that tremble from time to time also indicate that she is not quite right.
However, Boom feels that this kind of banquet is more suitable for him. At least he can ensure that he will return full and avoid eating late night snacks at night.
"It's a pity. If the shield man had been smarter, he wouldn't have been stuffed into the dimensional space by his brother." Rikka said with a smile while looking around with interest.
Perseus was supposed to follow Rikka all the time because he could fulfill his guardian duties. But Boom believed that Perseus was not yet at the level to participate in such a banquet. At least he still needed some time to communicate and distinguish right from wrong.
He had time to practice. So Boom directly asked Rikka to push him into the dimensional space, so as not to make mistakes at any time and even implicate Rikka.
"Perseus, as long as he works hard, there will be many opportunities in the future, but this time it will definitely not work." Boom squatted in the corner, silently observing every dwarf present.
"Just bring me a glass of ale, Rikka. Sister, you're not hungry now. You can go and have fun by yourself." Christine stood in the shadows, seemingly not interested in enjoying the dinner.
When Rikka saw this, she no longer hesitated. The little girl ran to the more than ten meters long dining table and filled two large plates of food in a few minutes, and most of them were meat. The dwarves who participated in the banquet said:
There is no objection to this. In their eyes, food should be stuffed into the mouth, not for looking at.
The dwarfs’ banquets will only invite powerful tribesmen, blacksmiths with superb forging skills, or those who have made great contributions. Therefore, compared with the scene of all the nobles of the human race, the banquets of the dwarfs are naturally chaotic and noisy, because what is happening here
Everyone has it.
"Brother, are two plates enough? If it's not enough, I'll get it for you. It tastes very good!" After Rikka put the two large plates of food in front of Boom, he immediately ran to the dining table again.
As soon as these words came out, Christine used the shadowing technique and disappeared in an instant. She was not interested in embarrassing Boom with her. Boom nodded indifferently after hearing this, and even asked Rikka to pack some and take them back to the stone tower for a midnight snack. All the dwarves present were stunned for a moment, because no matter how rude they were, they knew that this was the palace, and the dwarf king Balder was standing beside him at the moment, drinking with someone. But a few seconds later, they burst into even louder applause.
Sound, the dwarves like generous girls like Rikka, and even more like frank "thugs" like Boom.
With cups of ale down his throat, Boom couldn't refuse the overtures of these strong dwarves, not to mention that he owed Balder a huge favor. Rikka would have already drank until her face turned red. If Christine hadn't pulled her,
I guess I'll have to go and have a drink with Balder.
"Hehehe, you two brothers and sisters, let's forget it and have a drink with us dwarves? Isn't that like competing with the orcs to see who has more hair?"
After Balder said this, he slowly put down his wine glass. This was also the first time he put down his wine glass today. There is an unwritten rule in the dwarf dinner party, that is, if the dwarf king holds the wine glass, it will not end. Otherwise, he should leave.
Leave.
"Bah! Fighting with wine means fighting with wine. What a shame, you old pervert!" Rikka held a roasted chicken leg in his hand and shouted with his head held high.
That night, Christine helped Boom return to the stone tower to rest, while Rikka stayed in the palace. But the little girl did not really have a drink with the dwarf king Bald, but took a bath with the dwarf mistress Aura.
.
In the mist, Rikka quickly regained consciousness, and then silently felt the warmth passing over the surface of her skin. She didn't expect that there was a bathing place in the palace, otherwise she wouldn't have been fooling around with Mito all day.
After Christine soaked in a hot spring once, Rikka fell in love with this kind of thing and ranked it behind Boom and food.
"Rikka, do you think I'm beautiful?" the dwarf mistress Aura asked for no reason, which made Rikka almost choke to death on the bath water.
In Rikka's eyes, Aura has a noble status, a powerful husband, and a pair of extremely cute children. But when it comes to appearance, naturally she has to be like Christine to be called beautiful.
"Uh... she's quite beautiful. Why did Sister Aura suddenly ask about this?" Even if Rikka was usually short-sighted, she would not directly say that the other party was average-looking and had a somewhat fat figure at this moment.
Rikka is very glad that there is white mist around her, otherwise her current expression would make her feel extremely embarrassed, let alone the other person.
"Haha, you have such a sweet mouth. You are the fourth person to say that I am beautiful. The first three are my husband, son, and daughter."
"Although I'm not pretty, my husband has always loved me deeply. Rikka, do you have someone you like? Would you like Sister Aura to introduce you to a dwarf warrior?"
Aura shook her head, and then there was a hint of cunning in her eyes, and she spoke again. Upon hearing this, Rikka put her head directly into the bath water, and the sound of gurgling bubbles was considered her answer.
"If a woman wants to capture a man's heart, the wisest thing to do is to completely dispel all his fantasies."
"If you don't obey, you will scold me. If you are dishonest, you will beat me. If the other party dares to talk back, you will cry. If the other party dares to quibble, you will make trouble!"
"A woman must be strong, otherwise she will end up becoming a yellow-faced woman!"
"But fortunately, you are also very powerful. Do you know how the orcs tame the fierce horses? Just slap them and give them a sweet date!"
Aura was not surprised when she saw this, because even a fool can see the little girl's attachment to Boom. Therefore, Aura chose another way to win over the other party, that is, to start from the emotional aspect, and it is best to promote the other party's second love.
At that time, as a matchmaker, she, and even the entire dwarves, will naturally be closely connected with each other.
Rikka didn't know when she gave up. She even took out a notepad and recorded all the "tigress" experience taught by the other party. The little girl nodded her head through the white mist, and then the fun of Boom asking for mercy seemed to appear in front of her eyes.
Scenery.
Soft wool carpet, faint floral fragrance, and large wooden bed. Aura and Rikka returned to their residence, but they did not expect that the dwarf king Balder was drinking.
"You went to sleep somewhere else tonight without my permission. If you come here again soon, I'll beat you!" Aura pointed to the palace corridor outside the door and signaled Balder to get out immediately. The dwarf king grinned in embarrassment, but
But he didn't dare to provoke his wife, so he walked out in despair.
Rikka looked on with admiration. She didn't expect that the dwarf king was actually a "hep-controller" in private. At the same time, she admired Aura's ability even more.
The candlelight flickered, and Rikka lay on the bed listening to Aura telling stories about the old gods, and finally fell asleep. Aura gently pulled up the quilt, and it was only at this moment that she rubbed her stiff cheeks.
The next morning, Rikka returned to the stone tower, and amid the wry smiles of Boom and Christine, she poured over thirty high-grade magic crystals onto the wooden table with a splash.
The little girl claimed that the dwarves were friends, and then ran out of the stone tower to wait for Mito to arrive. But Boom picked up a magic crystal, and this magic crystal reflected a cold face.
