Act XIX

The nights in Andorhar are colder than those of the main plane. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Perhaps because of the lack of human breath, whether it is the silent ruins or the grassy fields, it is more peaceful and bleak.

By the river, the water is murmuring, a few fireflies are floating on the bank, and the moonlight is scattered, forming a dreamlike scene.

Inside a dilapidated building, Langton meditated with his eyes closed.

Meditation is more about exercising one's spirit, making it more intimate with the elements, and being able to communicate with the sea of magic far beyond the crystal wall, just like the martial artist exercising his body, meditation is also one of the important means for spellcasters to exercise themselves.

However, Langton's meditation process obviously did not go well.

Sweat oozed from his forehead, he bit his lip tightly, his brow furrowed slightly, as if he had seen something terrible, and then, with a slight exclamation, Langton opened his eyes.

It took a moment for his eyes to focus, and he couldn't help but sigh as he remembered his current situation.

"Is it already night?"

Looking up at the starry sky, Langton said to himself.

"Yes, it seems that everyone doesn't like to rush to challenge other people at this time. ”

A muffled voice came from behind his side, causing Langton to turn around and find that it was the familiar Skeleton Swordsman, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

Rosen leaned against the wall and watched Langton quietly.

His senses were able to capture the elementals around him, so while Langton was meditating, he was actually observing the flow of magic in the teenager's body.

It turns out that Langton Ludwig didn't have a scarcity of magic for any special reason, but was born this way, a true magic waste.

To be honest, Rosen's first reaction when he learned about Langton's situation was that this guy could not have a protagonist template or something.

Born a waste material, there is a genius brother and a smart sister in the family, who has been looked down upon by everyone since he was a child, neglected by the family, and even has the most powerful divorce setting in the novel.

However, according to Rosen's observations, Langton, as a teenager born in a necromancer family, is indeed difficult to master these spells, and it seems quite difficult to enhance his magic through other means.

Mages can be said to be one of the most gifted people in this world.

If you are a genius, then even if you have not received any relevant education, you can understand it thoroughly, just like Kalian, who became famous at a young age and was condescending.

At the same time, if you don't have the slightest talent, then you can't even get started, and decades of hard training are just in vain, and hard work and diligence can't improve your spell casting level by half a point.

And Langton, although extremely hard-working, has such a talent, and spends his whole life as a half-hung necromancer.

"At this time, most of the people will rest in their own strongholds, and at the same time, they will send envoys to investigate the situation and determine the strongholds of others. ”

Langton said helplessly, as a necromancer, it is difficult for him to control even the most basic demons, and it has to be said that it is quite a shameful thing.

"Uh, what about Karen...... them"

He looked around, but he didn't see the black-haired girl, but just as Langton was about to get up, his stomach barked out of place.

Goo――

"Hmm...... It seems that I haven't eaten yet. ”

Langton scratched the back of his head in embarrassment, then prepared to pull the prepared ingredients from the storage ring to cook.

Soon, however, a burst of aroma came and Langton swallowed.

"This taste...... Chicken and mushroom soup?"

He quickly recognized the nature of the aroma, and then followed the smell, through the two buildings, before he saw the figure in the flickering firelight.

A dazzling flame dances on the matches, a white mist rises from the delicate boiler, and a long soup spoon stirs the soup in the pot rhythmically, and the flavors of spices and meat are mouth-watering.

The man holding the spoon was a man with dark blond hair.

It's the heroic spirit of Karen.

"Huh?"

Langton looked at the man with some strange doubts.

"I didn't order him to do these strange things, after all, I was against it in the first place, and even though the magic of eliminating the smell has been applied in the stronghold, there are still hidden dangers left by doing so. ”

Karen, who was sitting on the side, turned her head sideways and said, looking reluctant.

But the bowl and spoon in front of her didn't seem so reluctant.

"Dry food and bread are too perfunctory for young people who are growing up, and the next battle will definitely be very difficult, and eating good food can make better use. ”

The man shrugged, then tasted the soup in the pot with a small bowl, then reached out and sprinkled a handful of salt, stirred it a few times, and lifted the pot away from the stove.

"Uh......"

Langton couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when he saw the two people arguing.

Is this really on the battlefield of the War for the Crown and not at some picnic event?

"Don't stand there and watch, come and help. ”

Karene glanced at Langton and said with some urging.

"Hmm...... Good. ”

Nodding with some mixed feelings, Langton obediently stepped forward to help Karen set the table.

Rosen stood by and watched them, and the man who was frying trout glanced at Rosen and smiled kindly, but Rosen's skeletal head did not show any reaction.

About a quarter of an hour later, what was probably the first dinner in the War for the Crown was served.

The main course is a rich chicken and mushroom soup, where the magically fresh, tender chicken and rich mushrooms form a perfect match, and the seasoning acts as the finishing touch, bringing the flavors of the two together for a more layered look.

In addition to the chicken and mushroom soup, there is also the pan-fried trout, which is firmer and chewier due to its constant swimming in the water, and is coated with sea salt and black pepper to bring out the deep aroma of the meat, and the aroma is attractive with fresh lemon.

As for the bread and gravy sauce, it is like the aristocratic flavor of the Kalian family, restrained and deep, but it makes people can't help but appetize.

To be honest, Langton hadn't eaten food at home, but sitting at the table at this time made him feel special.

He didn't understand what it was, but when a bowl of hot soup was brought to him, Langton felt his eyes heat up.

"Don't worry, there is no poison, and I can't afford to spoil the delicacy with that kind of indiscriminate means. ”

The man said, and sat down next to Karen as well.

"Well, I didn't expect you to have two hits. ”

Karen said in a small voice, picking up the spoon to herself, taking a gentle sip of the chicken and mushroom soup, and then immediately widening her eyes.

"Uh-huh, this one tastes great. ”

Seeing Karen's expression so indulged in food for the first time, Langton was also a little curious, he picked up the bowl, took a sip of the soup, and was immediately captured by the strong mountain smell in it.

"How do you deal with it......"

Langton got a taste of something familiar, a cooking method that his late mother had preferred, and though it was a little different, he still tasted the memories of it.

"I added three special spices to enhance the tenderness of the chicken while maximizing the flavor of the mushrooms. ”

The man seemed to watch with considerable satisfaction as the two young men enjoyed their meal, while he himself casually bit into a piece of trout.

Lawson watched all this quietly, he didn't have to eat anymore, and he couldn't help but sigh a little when he looked at their happy expressions at this time.

But the intimate dinner didn't last long, as Karin took a few sips of the soup and reveled in the charred texture of the fried trout, when a subtle wave of magic came over her, causing her to immediately put down the spoon in her hand and the soothing and relaxed expression on her face vanished.

"Somebody broke in...... No, it's the Heroic Spirit!!"
