——Basically, he is the only normal person in that team.
Annan felt relieved when she took action.
Demetri was still busy with work and did not come back for dinner; Maria had not yet come down from the Tower of Storms. In such a large ducal palace, the home of the ruler of the Principality of Winter, there were only two people at the same table for dinner.
The food at the Duke's Palace is indeed delicious, but it is definitely not luxurious - a pan-fried lamb chop, a plate of sliced sausages, a small plate of pickles, then a bowl of salad, a bowl of stewed pears, and a plate of fish and egg fillings
, food similar to steamed buns.
Most of them are for Annan to eat.
After all, Annan is growing up now. He has a silver-level battle job. Although he does not exercise or fight much, daily exercise alone, coupled with the coldness of the winter, allows Annan to eat two meals close to a normal adult.
food.
Regarding Ivan's current physical condition, the doctor has warned him that he can only eat steamed or stewed meat - fried, roasted or raw food is not allowed, nor can he eat full meals, nor can he eat cold things.
.
This bun-like food was originally a special food for Ivan. Later it spread to the people in winter.
Because it is made from fermented dough, it puts less burden on Ivan's body. In addition, Ivan hates waste - even if his physical condition is not very good, if there is any leftover
I will also work hard to finish the meal.
Therefore, the hands of winter, who are responsible for taking care of his body, usually control his appetite accurately. He would rather eat less than eat too much.
And this kind of "steamed buns" filled with meat and eggs can ensure nutrition and try not to make too much for Ivan. A plate of steamed buns and a few slices of pickles are his meal for every meal, and
Try to keep as little oil and salt as possible.
——Don’t say he’s a duke.
If it were in Noah, even an ordinary businessman who didn't even have a manor or even a noble would not have such a simple meal.
But Ivan didn't dislike this simple food at all.
Not only did he eat very carefully and conscientiously... his eating speed was even slow.
Mainly when chewing, it takes a long time to swallow.
It's not that he has missing teeth like an old man.
But Ivan's body was abnormally weak and his muscles were extremely weak.
Not only does he need a cane to walk...even eating for too long will make Ivan feel tired.
He is obviously just a middle-aged man, but he eats, moves and sleeps like an old man. That is to say, Ivan's neat and white teeth can prove that he is not an old man yet.
Annan heard from "ring finger" Aunt Zhuoya that Ivan would only eat a bun the size of his fist and drink a bowl of stewed pears without adding any sugar. Today Ivan can eat two buns, which is enough.
This is the time when Ivan's appetite is relatively strong.
This should be because Annan is rarely at home.
Although Ivan had no expression on his face and no joy in his heart, his appetite had increased significantly.
——As a member of the Lingdong clan, he cannot eat cold food.
This is simply a shame.
But Ivan still followed the doctor's orders just to live a little longer.
Because the Principality of Winter cannot leave him yet.
Grand Duke Ivan's body was already overwhelmed.
In the past two weeks, he had been dreaming and waking up many times, dreaming that he had turned into a dragon and traveled across the sky with his kindred spirits... But every time he woke up at the last moment and chose to return to his body.
Inside.
Ivan knew that this was the old grandmother calling him.
[Winter Blood] flows in his body.
That is genuine dragon blood.
The human heart and muscles simply cannot carry the great power of dragon blood. This is the truth about Ivan's incurable disease.
If he dies, his spirit body should turn into a dragon. He will return to his grandmother's domain and become her messenger.
When Ivan becomes the messenger of the Righteous God, Ivan will definitely gain a healthy and strong body again... and he won't have to live in such struggle and pain.
Just like his father and grandfather.
Different gods choose their messengers in different ways. But in general, the messengers of gods are those they love most.
For example, the messengers of the Red Knight choose those "heroic knights" who have performed meritorious service and died on the battlefield without feeling any fear or regret for their deaths. Even if they were only mortals during their lifetime, they will become silver-level knights after becoming messengers.
Yes, the immortal heroic soul knight.
Sir Silver will choose those very smart big bankers or legendary businessmen - usually, these are his popes and cardinals, or big businessmen from other countries.
They may have made some important discoveries during their lifetime, or they may have had "selling" experiences that have been cited as legends. But there is no doubt that they are among the smartest and most perceptive people in the world.
If they have not offended Sir Silver, they will be promoted to "managers" after death, and in another sense will gain eternal life. And their job is to help Sir Silver's church continue to expand territory or run various local businesses.
.
Another name for them is "Silver Guides". In fact, there is also a summoning ritual called "Call: Silver Guides".
But the ceremony masters definitely did not summon the Silver Guides to help them fight, but to help them start a business...
In the same way, there are the "classical scholars" of the mysterious lady and the "attractors" of the cup-bearing girl. When the ritualist calls them, it is obvious that they are not used as thugs.
Theoretically, any god can have his own messenger. The ritual of creating a messenger is itself part of the god's power. They can respond to the rituals in the corresponding field on behalf of the god, and their main responsibility is actually manual customer service...
Of course, there are also some gods who are more withdrawn and do not like to have their messengers around them all the time.
For example, Bell Ringer has no messenger, and Paper Princess likes to travel alone and does not like to create messengers.
If the gods do not intercept the souls alone to create messengers, then these souls will be "buried" by the power of the Bone Burial Granny. They will gradually sink and return to the origin of the world within twelve years. This can be regarded as a kind of "reincarnation", just the previous life.
There is no direct relationship with future generations.
If the souls of the dead fail to return, then the original power of the world can be regarded as weakened - after all, there is no return. From this point of view, the existence of "undead" itself is a kind of
Smuggling.
Messengers are actually a kind of undead, but their gods have given them this power and made them regular.
"Annan."
After hesitating for a long time, Ivan looked at Annan who was eating, and finally made up his mind: "I feel my grandmother's call. It's almost time for you to take over the three-color scepter.
"Because I may be...about to [Dragon Transformation]."
