Night fell.
Weller sat by the campfire, staring at the sky in a daze.
Broad leaves of plants resembling banana leaves were spread at his feet, on which were the signature snacks of honey jerky in restaurants in the small town of Bielboom, and several bamboo tubes filled with rye wine were placed beside him.
This is undoubtedly a big meal for a boy living in poverty. If he can have a meal like this before, the boy is even willing to pay any price.
But now he has no appetite at all, and all his attention is unconsciously drifting to the girl ten meters away, who is talking to that half-bald young man named Sylvie Olavia. body.
Although the current girl is not as dazzling as when she reached out to him during the day (because Charlotte turned on the shielding mode after the performance), but after the goddess's brilliance faded, she became more approachable.
"Yo, boy, don't you eat?"
At this time, Lauren Cloutien sat next to Weller, and picked up a piece of honey jerky: "If you don't mind, I will eat it?"
Although he was headshot by Jasmine with a watermelon before, this guy's vitality was unexpectedly tenacious, and he woke up quickly without saying anything, and there was basically nothing unusual except for a slight concussion.
"It's so elegant..."
Weller put his cheeks on his hands and stared at Charlotte in the distance.
"Ouch!"
So the knight who was eating jerky was choked.
He tried hard to swallow the jerky in his mouth, looked at Weller, and then at Charlotte—probably because there was a problem in the negotiation, the girl of the gods suddenly sent Xu Shenxing flying with a rising dragon fist, and then a series of continuous The technique keeps our protagonist in a floating state and never falls to the ground, making the little head of Jasmine, who eats melon, float up and down little by little with Xu Shenxing—then Lauren looked at Weiler again, with an exaggerated expression on her face. The surprised expression is quite funny.
"...how elegant is this?"
"Don't you think her movements are beautiful?" Weller didn't notice the sarcasm in the knight's tone. Maybe he noticed it but didn't want to pay attention to it. He still had the yearning expression of a girl in love, staring intently at Charlotte. pedicle.
"I don't think it's pretty, but judging from the sound of blows reaching here, that woman might be able to knock down a bear with her bare hands..."
Because of the angle problem, Lauren Claudine, who hadn't been able to see Charlotte's beauty when she lifted the mask, is trying to reverse the somewhat distorted aesthetics of Valerina in his opinion.
"Let me tell you, the real elegance is the noble ladies at the ball, that's really, tsk tsk." The knight gnawed on the jerky and smashed his mouth: "Perfume smell! Petit skirt! Small waist! Big white legs ! And the white flowers... "
"It's as if you've seen it with your own eyes."
It may be that the topic of color was mentioned, and Weller finally came back to his senses a little bit. He glanced at Lauren with disdain and muttered.
Because of the close distance between the two, Lauren could hear Weller even if his voice was not loud.
"Of course I've seen it! Don't forget, I'm a famous adventurer! Every day, there are countless noble ladies who want to kiss Fangze!"
Sir Knight immediately brandished the jerky, as if to reprimand Fang Qiu.
"Is the usage of Yiqin Fangze wrong?"
"Don't worry about the details, let's just throw yourself into your arms and see you off?" At this point, Lauren found that the boy was looking at him with a suspicious expression of "Your reputation is all bragging, right?" I couldn't help but straighten my waist: "Hey, don't you believe it? Then tell you the story that I went to the underground dark sea to find the legendary underground sea monster..."
"However, how could a great adventurer be so timid."
Although the boy was very interested in the Nashilaozi underground sea monster, Weiler couldn't help but doubt the other's identity after seeing the other's cowardly experience before.
Unexpectedly, when he asked such a question, the great adventurer (who claimed to be) was really silent.
After a while, after the boy had heard enough of the sound of insects chirping and the bonfire rising (as well as the sound of beatings from a distance), Lauren Cloutien said in a tone of nostalgia or emotion: " I just wanted to regain my courage, so I started exploring around the world."
"?" There was a puzzled expression on the boy's face.
"My father is also an explorer. He has explored quite a few places. Don't look at me now. In fact, I was very bold when I was young. At that time, I wanted to go out with my father to see the outside world. So my father said Make a promise with me that if I still think so when I become an adult, we will go out on an adventure together."
"But before I became an adult, my father passed away in a mountain accident. After witnessing his mutilated body, I lost all my courage, and I didn't even dare to go out. Until five years ago, I still Staying at home as a rice bug with nothing to do. Later, my mother collapsed because of overwork in the textile factory where she worked. Her last words to me are to let me regain my courage... "
"After that, I found the notes left by my father, packed my bags again, and followed his footsteps across the continent, found the legacy he left in his explorations, and met his former friends... in those With the help of others, I was introduced to Ms. Strelitzia, and she gave me a chance: as long as I can climb Mount Elmos, I can be made a knight."
"In the end you succeeded?" Hearing this, Weiler couldn't help asking.
"Well, that was really the hardest experience I've had in the past five years... I wanted to give up several times, but every time I thought of my mother's last words, I gritted my teeth and survived, and finally climbed to the highest peak in the mainland "Lauren put down the jerky, picked up a bamboo tube, drank a big gulp of rye wine, felt the bitterness spreading in his mouth, and the expression on his face was quite lonely: "On the day of receiving the knighthood, I thought I had found my lost courage, but now it seems that I am not far away... ”
Weller was silent for a long time before speaking again, wanting to ask about the top of Mount Amos and the golden apple, but just as he opened his mouth, he was interrupted by the voices of several people in the distance.
Charlotte: "Oh, 999Hit, broke a new record."
Xu Shenxing: "I don't think it's worth being happy at all!"
Jasmine: "unbelievable~excellent~"
Xu Shenxing: "Wait, the dubbing is wrong, this is Xiaoxiaole!"
