After successfully exiting the Consulate, the carriage headed straight for the Goblin Tavern.

Curious people always find something to talk about, and some even have a road map in their minds, boldly guessing where the next stop of the Blackthorn Carriage will be.

But this has nothing to do with Roque, his purpose is very clear, and he is carrying out his plan step by step.

Jingle bells!

Hera at the counter followed the prestige, smiled on her face, and came out to greet her unhurriedly.

"Long time no see, Mr. Roque, Mr. Murdan. ”

"Hera, call me Roque, we're friends, we don't think we've seen each other for two days. Roque smiled and sat down.

"That's probably because I miss you guys so much, and Roark wants to have something to drink today. Hera asked politely, smiling like a flower.

"I don't need to drink anything, I want to ask you for help. "Roque gets straight to the point.

Hearing this, Hera looked at Murdan, slightly puzzled.

"Haha, Hera, you might be busy here tomorrow. Murdan said mysteriously with a gentle face.

"Looks like I can't say no, Roque, don't I?" Hera's gaze fell on the other.

"Yes, after all, we are friends, and tomorrow I plan to invite the little girls from all over town to coffee at your place, and I believe that it will not be long before everyone on the Consulate side will let everyone know. Roque nodded and explained.

"Roque, are you here today with all the fanfare for this?" Hera wondered.

"Yes, it's important to me, otherwise I wouldn't have the time to toss so much, and there are still a lot of headaches in the manor. Roque said seriously.

"Giggles, I haven't congratulated you yet, congratulations on becoming the heir to the Black Thorn Manor, and hopefully everything will be better. Hera sent her best wishes sincerely.

"Thanks, then I'll leave it to you tomorrow. ”

On the way to the Goblin Tavern, Roque already knew that Hera would not reject him, not because of blind confidence, but because of the trust between friends.

There is never a shortage of hurried passers-by in life, some people come, you dig your heart and soul to keep them, but in the end you can only work in vain, and some people are gone, they will slowly fade away in the memory, and you can no longer find a trace.

And some people, even if they have not passed the test of time and have only met a handful of times, they will never leave you.

The word friendship is easy to write, but it is not easy to really do it, there are too many external factors that influence us, we are not gods, and we cannot be pure indifference.

Temperaments, preferences, thoughts, encounters, and so on all force us to make our own judgments and decisions, and this is understandable, because only in this way can the world be complete and colorful.

Everyone's life is a biography, which records bits and pieces, there are sad, happy, lively, lonely, and different stories continue according to a certain trajectory.

Roque's biography seems to be well written so far, at least until now, he has been lucky enough to meet people and things that can teach him something.

This is the most precious treasure in life, it cannot be seen or touched, but it is always there.

"Roque, can you tell me about your true purpose, I just want to know, curiosity is human nature. Hera asked in a joking tone.

"In order to find someone, she was helpful for me in what I was going to do next. Roque's answer was to the point.

"Thank you, and I hope everything goes your way, Roque. Hera wished.

"Hera, see you tomorrow. ”

Roque was going to Martha's house, and since he was going to have dinner there, it was better to arrive early as a guest and buy some gifts to bring with him.

For today's dinner, Martha attaches great importance to it, and after learning from Fili that the Duke is a terrifying big stomach, she directly prepared double the ingredients.

Soon after Roque left, she changed her clothes and put on her apron and went about her work in the kitchen, with Grad, the butler, and Fili and Dani all helping.

As for the Duke, he stayed in the drawing-room, lying leisurely on the sofa, sometimes sticking out his tongue and rolling away the desserts on the table.

In the evening, Roque caused an uproar over the town's invitation to coffee, and almost everyone talked about it.

For everyone, the proclamation issued by the Consulate Hall represents not only public credibility, but also authoritative trust, which means that it is unequivocal and impossible to deceive.

Many civilians took the lead in saying that they would take their daughters to the Goblin Tavern tomorrow, not only for coffee, but also for a deeper meaning.

Being able to get the kindness of the Black Thorn Manor, in their opinion, is also to get the blessing of Lord Roque in disguise, and everyone is looking forward to the wonderful arrival of tomorrow.

At the center of the story, Roque is enjoying an intimate dinner party at Martha's house, where delicious food always makes people feel good.

Click, click, click, click.

Delicious food is worth savoring slowly, and the process is the greatest enjoyment, but the Duke doesn't think so, he works very hard, just wants to fill his unfathomable stomach.

Grad, who was standing next to Martha, had a numb scalp, and she really wanted to ask Roque why he had such a pet, it was terrible.

"Mr. Roque, please. As the master, Martha, she could only try to ignore the frenzied duke, and raised a glass to Roque.

"Thank you for your hospitality, ma'am. Roque smiled and picked up his glass.

After dark, Roque returned to the manor, and after making sure that Mireel and they were ready, he returned to his bedroom.

"Roque, I'm going to town tomorrow, that Martha's cooking is so delicious. Jumping onto the shoe cabinet, the Duke demanded unsatisfactorily.

"You're in the limelight today. ”

I don't know if this counts as Roque's compliment, he lies quietly on the bed, staring at the ceiling, hoping that he can find the Prayer Maiden tomorrow.

By dawn, the Black Thorn Manor was already busy, a carriage full of miscellaneous items was ready to go, and Barbara had chosen three shrewd and capable maids plus Piev.

Dancy was following behind Mireel with two hard-working servants, and not far away, Yag looked ugly and led the swordsman with Vader ready to see him off.

Not many people knew about the exchange with Vader, and the two of them did it quietly, but the result was beyond Yag's expectations, and he lost, and lost completely.

The Great Swordsman lost to the Swordsman, which Ag couldn't accept, but fortunately, Vader comforted him, admitting that he had cheated and that if it was a head-on battle, it would be the other party who won.

But Yag is a brainless man, and if he loses, he loses, and he can't go to town with Roque, and he's in a pretty bad mood.

Knock knock.

Upon his way down the stairs, Roque saw Murdan and Fili waiting in the hall, along with wormwood.

"Good morning, my lord. ”

"Good morning, Master Roque. ”

"Good morning, Lord Roque. ”

"Let's have breakfast together, we have to leave as soon as possible. After leaving a word, Roque walked straight to the table.

"Lord Roque, Mom and Dad, they found something terrible on the other side of the village. ”

Hearing the other party's words, Roque instantly thought of what Fili said to him yesterday, he turned to look at the wormwood who was a little overwhelmed, and said seriously: "I'm very busy today, what is it that makes you so anxious, let's talk." ”

"Master Roque, there is a man-eating monster in the village, and many people have been eaten. There was a look of horror in Wormwood's eyes.

"Are you sure?" Roque quickly got up, his expression immediately becoming solemn.
