Nora has already moved the furniture and ingredients from the Fire Island Manor and placed them in the lobby on the first floor to serve as a restaurant decoration.
Queen Theodora will also take time to come over tonight and have dinner with everyone in Achilles' mansion. As the empire's political affairs gradually get on the right track, such opportunities become less and less.
There are so many imperial political affairs that she needs to deal with that she has been completely overwhelmed recently. Even the two hours scheduled for tonight's dinner party were barely obtained by passing the political affairs to the imperial ink officer, Ms. Varomina.
Therefore, Nora paid extra attention to the quality of tonight's meal. Fortunately, the Golden Palace provided a large number of precious ingredients that were not taken away by Suleiman, allowing her to display 120% of her cooking skills.
"Nora?" Medea walked into the kitchen and smiled, "Do you need help?"
"Wash those beets for me," Nora said.
So Medea went to wash the beets and watched the water wash away the dirt and sand in the leaves. She whispered:
"This morning, Sidrifa also broke through Level 20."
"Isn't that a matter of time? I remember she was already at Level 18 a month ago, and she just needs to learn the last skill." Nora cut the chicken skillfully.
"Yeah." Medea said quietly.
Comprehending skills may take a long time for others, but it couldn't be easier for Cangqing Sword.
The reason is that the so-called acceleration plan allows girls to see in advance the skills they will learn in the future. It is like leaking questions before an exam. Targeted inquiries are naturally much faster and more convenient.
"So, you are the only one missing from the team." Medea washed all the beets and put them into a basin.
"Yeah." Nora gave her two eggs, "beat them for me."
So Medea broke the eggs into a bowl and stirred them with a small spoon.
"Actually, you've already reached Level 19, right?" She suddenly said to herself.
"Of course I also want Ask to stay here longer." Nora smiled softly.
"Then why not let him stay here forever?" Medea smiled slightly.
"Because it can't be done." Nora put the chicken into the pot and put it on the stove.
"It can be done." Medea put down the bowl of eggs.
"That's just what you think you can do." Nora bent down and lit the flame of the gas stove. "Actually, all you left behind was only his body... or part of his body. But what about his heart?"
She turned around slightly, her brown eyes seemed to have a deep pool of water, reflecting Medea's slightly frightened, pale and pretty face:
"Can you keep his heart?"
Medea:………………
"So in your opinion, thoughts are more important than people." She gritted her teeth and said.
"No, Medea." Nora leaned her back against the wall and sighed, "We are all selfish and want everything from him."
"But it can't be done, is that what you mean?" Medea said.
"It can't be done." Nora nodded, "So I can only trust him and bet."
"What if we lose?" Medea looked down at the mixed egg liquid in the bowl.
"You're scared," Nora said.
"Aren't you scared?"
"Alas." Nora smiled and shook her head, "If you were afraid, you wouldn't fall in love with him."
"Is he worthy?" Medea suddenly said with anger.
"How can we say this?" Nora looked at her with a smile.
"Yes, we are not qualified to say." Medea was also a little frustrated.
We are all on the same boat, so what else is there to argue about?
"Then I won't disturb you anymore." Miss Succubus said after being silent for a few minutes.
"Hmm." Nora opened the lid of the stew pot and tasted the soup inside.
Medea walked out of the kitchen and closed the door behind her.
Suddenly, green vines grew out of the crack in the door, swaying slowly in the breeze. Nora in the kitchen had turned into countless gorgeous flowers, and gradually disappeared into the air.
In the study room on the third floor, Asik suddenly noticed something and looked towards the kitchen downstairs.
Has Nora been promoted as well?
"Is it Nora who was promoted just now?" Mi'er and Mia had already returned from the sunken palace and were walking up the stairs on the second floor. Suddenly, they also noticed the vibration of the spectrum of the laws of the universe.
"Yes." Aske said.
"So..." Mi'er looked at Asike, with a questioning look in her eyes.
Ask nodded.
"What are you talking about?" Little Mia looked at the two of them curiously, having no idea what they were communicating.
"Mia." Asik smiled, "After the meal is over, let's go fight a BOSS, okay?"
"Okay." Little Mia said innocently, "Are you going to fight that bad emperor named Suleiman?"
"No." Asik reported a line of coordinate names, "I'll tell you later, you will take us to this coordinate address."
"This coordinate..." Little Mia pondered. In the process of understanding the skills, she and Sheila learned the longitude and latitude positioning method, "It seems to be in the south of the Principality of Bavaria? Are we going to Eleanor's family?
"
"Yes." Ask said with a smile, "But before that, let's go eat first. I heard that Nora made steak with special sauce today?"
"Ah?" Little Mia's eyes lit up, and she immediately turned around and ran downstairs, already shouting, "That, that, dear sister Nora..."
"So has it been decided?" Mi'er asked in a low voice after pushing Mia away who didn't know anything.
"Yes." Ask said, "There is no need to delay it any longer. Let's do it as soon as possible."
"Medea and the others may not cooperate." Mi'er reminded him.
"I know it well." Ask nodded.
——————
Achilles's mansion, dining room on the first floor.
Theodora pushed the door open from the outside and came in, followed immediately by several royal officers. The leader was Michael, the captain of the guard, who looked like he was facing an enemy, scanning the surroundings with alert and alert eyes.
"Your Majesty." Looking at the sumptuous dishes on the table, Mihail's face turned green, "How are you going to test the poison..."
"Exit." Theodora shouted in a low voice, "There are demigods here, who can poison us?"
"But what if it's a demigod-level toxin..." Mihail still insisted.
Among other things, the pure-blood monastery has demigods who specialize in the law of poison. Their poisons can directly paralyze extraordinary people who are also demigods, and they don't even have time to conceptualize their bodies (classic cases such as Asker).
If poison is added to this dish, nine demigods will be killed in one night, and the Seljuks will be able to fight back tomorrow.
"I have a toxin rule that can identify similar toxins." Peggy said next to her.
"Did you hear that? Get out!" Theodora ordered again.
So Michael left with the other officers and guards, and reluctantly guarded the main entrance of the mansion. His mind could not help but drift back to four years ago.
I remember that in a certain tavern, His Majesty Theodora, who was only 17 years old at the time, also brought them to find Aske alone, and then asked them to guard outside.
As a result, His Majesty himself suddenly disappeared from the tavern, causing the royal guards to search for a long time before finally showing up. Later, when they returned, they were scolded by His Majesty Zoe.
A similar situation probably won’t happen this time, right? Hahaha.
In the restaurant, everyone was already seated around the dining table. Little Mia couldn't wait to pick out the fattest steak and cut it.
Nora poured champagne for everyone diligently, Eleanor was tying her napkin seriously, Melia was cutting sausages and corn kernels with a knife, Peggy was digging into the pudding with a spoon casually, and Hidliefa was drinking silently by herself.
, Ask looked at everyone with a smile. Medea was the only one staring at the food on the table, with a melancholy look on her face, without touching her knife and fork.
Theodora pulled up a chair between Eleanor and Medea and sat down. She took the champagne from Nora and said:
"Nora, have you also been promoted to demigod?"
"Yes, today is the same day as Sidrifa." Nora replied with a smile.
Sidrifa felt a little bitter when she heard this. She didn't want to be the last one in the team to be promoted, but she was still promoted "together" with Nora.
Theodora turned her eyes and saw Sidrifa's expression in her eyes.
Now that she has become the queen again, she has to consider the issue from the perspective of the ruler of the empire. If Ask is about to leave, then it will naturally become a matter of making friends with the demigod girls in the team and even drawing them over.
The next extremely important thing for Theodora.
The relationship with Cang Qing Sword must never be broken, which is why she will find time to attend tonight's cocktail party.
"Then our team is full of demigods!" Theodora raised her glass with a smile on her face, "Cheers."
