Chapter 088: There is Lori at home
On the way back to Turin, Don Quixote stroked the nightmarish filigree fur and suddenly said, "Gaudus, I have something to tell you. ”
"What's the matter?"
Don Quixote glanced behind him and said, "Recently, both Viscount Matthew and Viscount Caesar have noticed you. ”
"Really?" Gaudus said with a smile.
Don Quixote looked at Gadoth's smiling face, surprised by his indifference, and couldn't help asking, "You already know?" ”
Gao Duos nodded and said, "Not only will I be cared for by Matthew and Caesar, but even in the future, I may also enter the old earl's field of vision." After all, I have a very close relationship with Princess Belia, and I often meet with you, as the inheritor of [Earl's Armament] and [Nightmare], how can you not have the eyeliner of these two viscounts by your side? ”
Gaudus didn't just talk, it was only a matter of time before he entered the vision of these two viscounts. These two viscounts, fighting each other for the position of earl, in order to be able to become an earl, are bound to win over themselves, in order to tilt the balance of victory in their favor, add some heavy chips.
Second Viscount McQueen is a bargaining chip, the little princess Belia is a bargaining chip, the knight Don Quixote is a bargaining chip, and himself, will also be a bargaining chip.
As the old earl's deadline approaches, it's time for everyone to take sides.
But Gaudus is not in a hurry to take sides, and now he is a force to be reckoned with. Behind him is the [Spider Princess] Spider Queen, the Eternal Dark Moon, the Peacock, and the Thunder. Field, not to mention that he himself is a necromancer with unlimited potential.
"And what are you going to do?" Don Quixote asked.
"Watch in the dark, watch what happens."
The two walked to an intersection where two streets were interspersed. Don Quixote rode the nightmare, then threw a bunch of keys to Gauldos, and said, "Now I have a separate house, at 13 Avenue Titus. This is the key to the residence, given to you. ”
Gao Duos took the key and wondered, "The key is given to me, so what do you do?" ”
"I have recently taken up the post of chief of guard of the little princess, and I must be on standby at all times except when the little princess is with her relatives, and I am inconvenient to follow. So the house was left unused. ”
"Rather than leaving it dusty, I'd better leave it to you, and maybe you can take care of it for me." Don Quixote laughed.
"I see." Gaudus then put the key away.
"Be careful, if you allow it, you can also come to me, after all, the little princess, she misses you too."
Little Princess...
Gaudus thought of the girl in a gothic princess dress, as pure and delicate as a newborn stormy flower.
He waved his hand at Don Quixote and said, "Goodbye." ”
"Goodbye."
Gaudus returned to the inn, packed up his salutes, and arrived at 13 Titus Avenue.
Sure enough, in this place, there was a separate courtyard, but the gate of the courtyard was covered with dust except for two handprints, and it seemed that Don Quixote had never entered it except for a routine visit.
When he opened the courtyard door, he saw the courtyard full of fallen leaves and petals, untidy flower patches, dry flowers, and dusty stone paths and steps.
The two-story building in the middle also looks a little ruined, although the overall structure has not been damaged at all, but the exterior paint has appeared a lot of mottling, and the patches stuck to the wall have also fallen several pieces, it seems that this place has not been repaired for a long time.
Gao Duos couldn't help but shake his head, thinking to himself that the reason why Don Quixote lost his fief and family was probably because of this? If you don't even bother to take care of a house, how can you deal with the affairs of returning the fief?
Sure enough, the most suitable thing for him is to be a pure knight.
Gaudus then used his soul connection to summon the Clay Stone Demon. This lonely stone demon has been underground for too long, and it's time to come out and move.
The Clay Stonegoy then emerged from the ground and stood in front of Gauldos.
"Quick, clean up the dust." Gaudus ordered.
The Clay Stone Demon knelt on one knee and said very jerkyly, "Obey... Life. ”
After receiving the order, the Clay Stone Demon immediately entered a granular state. A large number of particles begin to move themselves like individuals full of vitality. They climb onto stone paths and steps, devour the dust, and then gather on the fallen leaves and petals, breaking them down into the most primitive substrate and finally spreading to the flower floor, repairing and rejuvenating the soil that has been lacking care.
Looking at the renovated courtyard, Gaudus nodded in satisfaction. If it were those earth elementals who could only rely on instinct to act, they would definitely not be able to complete these delicate chores, and only the half-elemental, half-necromantic summoned creatures such as the Clay Stone Demon could do this kind of tedious work.
At this time, the courtyard gate was pushed open by a pair of small hands, and then a crisp voice like a wind chime came from outside the door:
"Little boy, it seems that you are a good mixer, and you can enjoy such a large courtyard alone. Sister Peacock said that those who could live in such a place in the center of Turin's city were either rich or noble, in short, rich or noble. ”
Gaudus couldn't help but smile wryly.
Sure enough, only Spider Ji would act so recklessly and express her opinions.
Followed by the peacock, she looked at this spider princess who was more than a head shorter than herself, and was a little helpless... Peacock... Younger sister? Little Spider Ji, I'm a lot taller than you, okay?
Looking at the newly worn wind and rain flower headband on Spider's head, Gao Duos suddenly felt his eyes light up. What is certain is that the material of this headband is full of color gold, in addition to 5 gemstones of different colors, it looks very luxurious and beautiful, and with the dress made of cicada wings, it is simply a beautiful princess.
Of course, looking at the money bag with a lot of shriveled around the peacock's waist, Gao Duo guessed that the tsundere spider princess must have spent a lot of money to buy this tiara.
"Yes, this headband is beautiful. By the way, these three days and three nights, have you had fun? ”
Spider Ji turned her head away, and said disdainfully: "Turin is not fun at all, it's not as fun as the underground world of the Eternal Dark Moon, I just played for three days and three nights, and I will never go shopping again, it's not interesting at all, hum!" ”
Isn't it fun, you still played for three days and three nights?
Gaudos couldn't help but roll her eyes.
Compared with Spider Queen's spending, the peacock made Gao Duos worry a lot. She was a thrifty housekeeper who only carried two large bags of vegetables, flour, seasonings and other cooking ingredients, which did not cost a single gold coin in total. It seemed that she was ready to improve her cooking skills, and of course, Gaudus would be able to feast on her food by the way.
At this time, Spider suddenly approached Gao Duos and said mysteriously, "There is something I must discuss with you. ”
Looking at Spider Ji's nervous expression, Gao Duosi suddenly had a bad premonition, and wanted to refuse, but when he thought that Spider Ji might cry, he immediately changed his tone and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
"Your patio is really spacious, and I think it's time for my kids to come out and get some fresh air."
Gao Duos shook his head decisively and said categorically: "No. ”
"Can't?"
"No, you can't!"
Spider Ji instantly opened her already very large eyes, and at the same time opened eight pairs of narrow compound eyes on her forehead, her pink face was full of sadness and helplessness, and her dark purple eyes were suddenly filled with tears, flashing with a touching light, as if the next moment, tears would come out majestically.
"Damn!" Gaudus couldn't help but close his eyes, he didn't want to see those basin-sized secondary demons climbing and jumping in this courtyard, but he didn't want to see Spider crying... She cried, she could really kill someone!
"Okay okay, you win!"
Spider Ji instantly burst into tears and laughed, where is there still a little tear in a pair of beautiful purple eyes? The natural transformation of her expression is completely comparable to that of a first-class actor in the United States, reaching the level of an Oscar actress. She triumphantly stretched out her index and middle fingers, made a standard V gesture, and said in a very cute, playful and unflattened tone:
"Long live the spider princess!"
