Chapter 142: I'm Tired
Artoria sat next to the little girl and asked softly, "What's your name?"
The little girl was about to move a little out, but was immediately choked by Artoria.
She replied in a voice as thin as a gnat: "My original name was sweet potato, and the man wearing the mask just now said that I would be called 'Tired' in the future, which means that I don't have to live so tired in the future." ”
Artoria was speechless at Charles's naming style, and then she touched the little girl's hair.
Then the little girl turned sideways and hugged Artoria violently, buried her face in her ribs, and asked in a weak voice, "Are you my mother?"
Artoria was stunned, she didn't expect it to be such a development, her initial plan was to take in an apprentice or something.
The little girl continued: "That elf sister said that if you are willing to touch my head, it means that you agree to be my mother. ”
The elf's hearing is very good, and the little girl's voice can be heard not far away when watching the lively elf princess. She saw that the silly hair on Artoria's head turned into a lightning rod in an instant, and hurriedly turned around and ran, and Charles, who was on the side, saw this situation and hurriedly brushed himself with an agility buff, and then ran with her.
The master and apprentice arrived at the tent where they were selling, and watched as Aubrey's craftsman Wayne and veterinarian Phil and a few others were dismantling the Rexlidon, which had been ordered by Marquis Schmidt and several other families. The wurm's head and neck will be made into a specimen to hang on the wall, the skin is a good material for making armor, the internal organs, bones, etc. are also good wood, and the magic core in the middle of its skull has already found a home.
Elizabeth looked bored for a while, and as she pulled Charles away, she suddenly noticed two people outside the crowd working on a sword.
"Can you show me this sword?"
Once again, Geraint was shocked, he didn't expect that the elf who was too beautiful to speak would also be interested in his sword.
Elizabeth took the sword from Geraint, looked at it twice, and then returned it.
"It's up to you whether you can get the approval of this sword or not. ”
After Elizabeth said this, she pulled Charles away.
Charles, who was being dragged by Elizabeth to the street outside the castle, was a little curious about the sword, so he asked, "Sister, did you say anything about that sword just now?"
Elizabeth looked around at no one, and said lightly, "It's nothing, it's just one of the last weapons my father made, and it's nothing special except for a hint of his own will." ”
Charles was taken aback when he heard this, "Isn't that an artifact?"
"How can I be? Elizabeth said, "It's just a self-consciousness similar to the core of the golem, and it can only react mechanically according to a preset program." ”
Charles continued to be stunned after hearing this, he felt that this technique was a bit wasteful to be used only for weapons. It wasn't until Elizabeth's "Boss, give me two little dresses" that pulled him back to reality.
Coming to his senses, Charles found himself being taken by Elizabeth to a clothing store on the street, where Elizabeth was pointing to the new winter dress hanging on the wall and asking the shopkeeper to take it down.
The boss looked at Charles with some embarrassment and said, "This lady, that skirt is a little small for your son, or ...... Try another one?"
Charles noticed that Elizabeth's eyes lit up, so he said "I'll go to the weapons shop" and immediately slipped away.
The weapons shop on the street is not bad, and weapons and armor of different specifications are neatly arranged in the store.
In a wooden barrel against the wall, an ordinary long sword is placed in it casually like chopsticks stuck in a chopstick holder.
On a shelf in the corner of the other wall was a shield covered in animal or iron on a wooden surface, and a number of helmets made of leather or metal hung on the wall.
On the shelf in the middle of the shop, there are several sets of ordinary leather armor, and under the shelf are a few pieces of leather for repairing leather armor.
In the deepest part of the store is the counter, and behind the counter is a workshop where the sound of striking iron can be heard. Now the proprietress is behind the counter chatting with an adventurer who has come to maintain the weapon, and it seems that the boss is working in the workshop in the back.
Charles picked out the barrels with short swords for gifts for his aunt.
When she was on the road just now, Elizabeth lined up there. Artoria is her aunt, so "so tired" is her sister. In this way, Charles, who is half of her son, has an extra aunt.
After going around and discovering that Charles was the youngest in his generation, he was devastated, and he wanted to quietly teach the other party to call himself "Ernie sauce" at first.
The adventurer who was chatting there said to the proprietress, "Have you heard, a fairy has appeared in the forest to the east. ”
The proprietress smiled, "When I was a child, I always heard stories from adults that there were goblins over there. ”
"It's not storytelling. The adventurer shook his head and said, "Recently, someone really saw that the elf still has wings on its back. ”
"Oh?" the proprietress was also interested, "Could it be that this time it's real, and not from those who sell so-called fairy maps?"
Charles, who was picking out the daggers, was also listening to the conversation at the counter, and he was still interested in the topic of goblins.
Fairies are seen as creatures incarnated by nature, their whereabouts are erratic, and they prefer to stay away from the crowds. Their strength can be strong and weak, the weak can compete with an ordinary child, and the strong can take down an elite team of adventurers.
However, most of them are kind-hearted beings, and will not take the initiative to attack humans, and often help some lost people find their way home, and at most will do some innocuous pranks to trick those they find.
And seeing goblins is more like a symbol of good luck for humans.
Charles, who had chosen the dagger, went to check out the adventurer, and he learned that the elves appeared in a wide range of areas, from pools on the side of the road to caves deep in the woods, and sighting reports were all over the forest.
Charles extinguished the idea of seeing the goblins, he didn't have the time to wander around.
Soon after, Elizabeth, who had finished shopping for clothes and other items, came to the weapons store to find Charles. At this time, the sun is about to leave work, and it is time for Charles to go back and prepare dinner for the caravan. After a night's rest tonight, the caravan will set out on the road to the east.
