Chapter 19: The Hunt (1)

Four days later......

Early in the morning, the restaurant of Mimosa Manor.

At a rectangular wooden dining table, Hathaway sat quietly eating breakfast. There was no sound on the table other than the clashing of cutlery and plates.

The three uncles and their wives had gone out early in the morning to visit a certain dignitary, and they didn't seem to care if their niece had any separate inheritance to receive, so she was the only one to eat breakfast this morning.

Thanks to the basics of eating Western food while on Earth, Hathaway skillfully cut off a small piece of fried steak and chewed it slowly with a fork. Behind her stood Bruno. Will. Although the old man is not young, he is a genuine silver three-ring swordsman, and his strength has not regressed because of his age.

Swallowing the beef in her mouth, Hathaway took a small sip of the soup, savored it, and said, "What kind of soup is today?" How is it different from the previous day? ”

Bruno. Will stood respectfully behind him and replied, "It's made from mushrooms just picked from the forest and a few black-bellied king snakes." ”

"Black-bellied King Snake?"

Hathaway expressed a little surprise, "It's not easy to catch, is it?" Also in the woods around us? ”

"Yes, a lot. However, this snake is very venomous, and it is difficult to treat when bitten, and only old hunters dare to catch it. "Bruno. Will said.

"Hmm."

Hathaway took a sip of the soup with a spoon again, and on the milky white surface of the soup, there were small mushrooms floating, which was delicious and mellow, and it was easy to arouse appetite.

"Grandpa Will, are the cars ready?" Hathaway asked.

"It's ready. If there are no problems, you can go the day after tomorrow. "Bruno. Will said.

"After eating, I'm going to take a trip to Mount Falar." Hathaway said lightly.

Bruno. Will frowned slightly: "Miss, it's not too safe in the mountains recently, it's better for you to stay in the manor." ”

"It's okay, I'll just take a walk at the bottom of the mountain, and it'll be fine."

Hathaway interrupted him, "Didn't you say you had prepared a guard for me?" Let them go with me, I think I should find out if they can really protect me. Her tone was unmistakable.

Bruno. Will had no choice but to agree: "Okay, don't go deep into the mountains, and besides, please don't stay outside for too long." ”

Hathaway nodded, knowing that "you asked them to wait for me outside the manor, and I had to do something else." ”

The whole table returned to its previous calm.

After eating, Hathaway came to the dwarven hut at the agreed time: "Gullit, is what I want finished?" ”

"Of course it's done."

Gullit. Vergu replied proudly, waving his hand, and his two sons approached with the weapons Hathaway had asked for: a compound bow, two swords, two sliverblades, and two spears.

"The bow is played according to your requirements, you are a magician, if you want to use magic arrows, you can buy ready-made magic arrows in big cities, I have thirty-six arrows here, if the tip of the arrow is not badly damaged, you can pick it up and use it. These knives, swords, and spear tips are made of fine iron and heather metal, and if you find a good inscription artist in the future, you can enchant them, and the barrels are made of light feather wood, and you can barely feel its weight if not the tip of the spear. ”

"Yes, very good!"

Hathaway checked it carefully and was very satisfied, the level of construction of the dwarven craftsmen was indeed good, the edges of these swords were no less than cold weapons made of modern technology and alloys, especially the scopes, which were no less than modern machined products, and the light feather wood was not only light in weight, but also extremely elastic, although it was not suitable for making knight guns in this world, but it was suitable for making spears.

"Master Forgu, how much should I pay you?" Hathaway put these weapons into the storage space, and her tone was much more respectful than the last time, and it was never an exaggeration to call them 'master' to be able to process these weapons to such an extent.

"You'd better call me by my name,"

Gullit. Forgu glanced at her, and with some reluctance, returned the telescope to Hathaway: "Give me twenty gold carats." ”

"Thank you."

Hathaway put away the binoculars and gave him ten double-sided gold carats, then said goodbye and left, just two steps away, she suddenly stopped and asked: "Gullit, I am going to return to Cassef Province in two days to inherit the title, and I will get a piece of territory, would you like to open a shop in my territory?" ”

"Why should I open a shop in your territory?" Gullit. Forgu asked rhetorically.

"Uh,"

Hathaway was stunned for a moment, and then said, "I still have some products like that telescope, if we can have a dwarven master to help, we can definitely make them famous in the world......"

Although she was not an orator, she attended many similar meetings when she was in the archery team and the police force, and as the saying goes, 'If you are familiar with 300 Tang poems, you can not compose poems but can also chant', which is enough to charm the dwarves, who have always been known for their honesty.

"Let's talk about it when you have territory." Gullit. Forgu turned away noncommittally.

"I'll be waiting for you in the territory."

Hathaway shouted behind him, thought for a moment, took out a butterfly hairpin and handed it to the dwarf girl next to him, "Aria. Forgu, this is for you. ”

"It's beautiful!"

Alia. There was a look of joy in Fogu's charming big brown eyes, "Really give it to me?" ”

"Of course it's true, you wear it beautifully." Hathaway helped her put the hairpin on, and the girl excitedly ran up to her brothers to show off her new tiara.

Hathaway smiled and turned to leave...... As her figure disappeared at the end of the trail, Gullit. Forgu walked out again, and came to the river, holding a telescope in his hand, but when he looked closely, he found that it was different from Hathaway's, and he held a pure wooden telescope.

"It's still worse."

Gullit. Faugu came to the river and looked at the scenery on the other side for a while with the binoculars in his hand, frowning a little dissatisfied......

Outside the manor, six guards with seven horses stood beside four hounds looking around vigilantly. Will looked worriedly in the direction behind the manor, but the look in his eyes showed that he seemed to be thinking about something else.

"Miss is here." One of the guards whispered.

The crowd followed his gaze and saw Hathaway walking briskly down a path leading to the back of the manor.
