Chapter 130: Diligent People
When the first rays of the morning light of Krunga entered Lilith's room through the openwork lace curtains, the aristocratic lady from Endymion lazily stretched and opened her eyes from her four-poster bed.
Her first instinct was to call for her personal maid, and then she remembered that the woman she considered her sister had betrayed her and died under the hammer of the mercenary captain Maguire. Every time I think about it, it makes Lilith feel very frustrated.
Is your life a failure?
The personal maid who has been growing up with her since she was a child, and she has clearly agreed that she will not leave even after getting married, is she so untrustworthy? She betrayed herself, betrayed her family, became a spy of the enemy, and finally did not hesitate to attack herself, if it wasn't for the help of the lord, I'm afraid I would have died in the foothills......
Thinking so, Lilith rolled over and got out of bed slightly.
But then she smiled helplessly, and stepped out of bed to look at herself in the floor-to-ceiling mirror, even through the light pajamas, you could see the looming curves.
Lilith wiped a blush across her face.
It's really impossible to compare, but I can't keep a maid after more than ten years of friendship, and it's only been a few months, and I've been tied up firmly by the lord.
Thinking like this, Lilith felt even more embarrassed, and buried herself in the soft bed quilt and did not dare to show her head.
What a shameless thought, Lilith......
Reaching for a bear doll at the head of the bed, Lilith slowly raised her head and held the tan puppet in front of her. I don't know when, Green commissioned Albert to buy some supplies from Cishand, including the puppet for Lilith, although it was not her favorite style. But she was like a treasure, and she held it in her arms every night.
Now Jinlunjia is in ruins, both the buildings in the territory and the lord's mansion are in urgent need of renovation, including Green's residence, all the rooms are just hastily cleaned and cleaned out some broken furniture. And so he will stay. Lilith's room was pretty good, and Green had asked the Jackals to choose the cleanest room for her, and even brought in a relatively complete floor-to-ceiling mirror. This qiΔ is completely unsatisfactory to her treatment in the family, but Lilith is surprisingly satisfied, there is a life she wants: academic research, combat adventures, various companions, and a satisfied lord that makes up the motivation for her hard work every day. Here, no one will look at her from afar and whisper that she is pampered and does not understand anything, no one will discuss who to marry her, and no one will show a lewd gaze that she hates all the time sweeping over her buttocks.
In Kinlunga. There is no aristocratic daughter Lilith, only the magician Lilith.
Everyone respects her because of her hard work, even if she is as smart as Albert and silent and cold as Assesses, she will give recognition to her hard work, and Green is even more praised, expressing her recognition many times, such a sense of honor and achievement. It was something she had never seen before in her past life.
If there's anything missing now, it's probably the lack of a Prince Charming.
"What a fool......"
Lilith muttered to herself. He rubbed the bear's face angrily, as if he had seen another person's face.
So Miss Qianjin's face turned red again.
Lilith, who forcibly stopped her cranky thoughts, put down the bear that she had ravaged by herself, and prepared to change into a work-appropriate outfit. She had just taken off her pajamas, and the calmness of her mind allowed her to hear the sound outside the window. She leaned curiously to the window, only to look out with only one pair of eyes. When she saw the situation outside, she couldn't help but sigh softly.
She saw a well-dressed boy swinging his sword in the courtyard, and it seemed that he had maintained this appearance for a long time.
"Your Excellency has risen!"
The thought made her a little panicked, and she had been the most industrious person in the entire realm since the establishment of Jinlunga. Rising early and going to bed late every day, Albert often advised her to rest early so as not to burn herself out, and she always agreed to it "resignedly", but in fact she still put in the best effort.
Speaking from the heart, every time she hears someone nagging her because of this, she feels a sense of satisfaction.
But when the lord Grimm returned to Jinlunga before Lilith on the first day after his disappearance, Lilith realized that there were others who were more diligent than she wasβand that seemed to explain the problem she had just thought of.
So the aristocratic daughter quickly put on her not very beautiful work clothes, and then walked briskly downstairs as much as she could, as much as she could, keep her ladylike demeanor.
She stopped in front of the door almost in one step, took a deep breath, and then gently pushed the door open and walked towards the courtyard.
"Good day, lord."
The noble lady came over, and since she did not dare to get too close, she bowed from a distance.
Hmmmββ
Green swung his sword down, and Lilith's voice came into his ears, and the sword blade flicked straight to the ground, and sweat suddenly flowed down the blade, and a drop fell to the ground.
"Ah...... Phew, it's Lilith, how's that? Did you sleep well yesterday? β
The boy turned around, a sunny smile on his sweaty face.
This smile was so attractive that Lilith couldn't help but be stunned when she saw it, and after reacting, her face turned red again, and she felt a sense of shame that she wanted to find a crack in the ground to get into.
Thankfully, Green didn't see it, and he was busy wiping the sweat from his face from a nearby shelf.
ββ¦β¦ You woke up so early, no wonder Albert kept complaining that he couldn't get a good rest, saying 'If the ladies all start working, why are the men embarrassed to stay in bed', and sure enough, it's you. Green let out a sigh of relief, then smiled and quipped at Lilith. His fine black hair was a little wet, but it shimmered in the sunlight.
"Why, no, it's all Mr. Albert's own laziness......" Lilith blushed, but her mouth was not showing weakness in saying bad things about a certain subordinate mage.
"Oh? It seems that your relationship is already very good, hahaha, hard-working people are really popular. Green picked up the scabbard from the shelf and said as he sheathed it.
"If you want to say diligence. Obviously, the lord is more diligent. It's the same compliment, but when the subject becomes Grimm, Lilith gets a little shy every time. The girl pinched the corner of her clothes that was about to be crumpled and whispered.
Green shrugged and didn't explain much.
Ever since receiving the Judge's reward in the second phase of the trial, Green had to put his first awakening on the agenda. A level 10 reward plus 2 levels of experience for defeating the Lich. Green has now reached level 36, which may be just a weak chicken level among native creatures, but for players, they are born with the ability to kill monsters beyond the level, and Green's current level already means that he has the ability to initially determine the future.
He didn't dare to guarantee that he would be able to shake the whole world with the power of one person in the future, but at least he could do it with one ride.
Then the first awakening of the fiftieth level, the door of choice, is particularly important.
The first awakening almost determined the path that the boy would take in the future, and Green undoubtedly chose the path of speed that he had only groped through years of playtime in his previous life. For this. He has increased his daily training, although the system plug-in provides the fastest way to become stronger, but he firmly believes that only by supplementing daily uninterrupted hard training can the growth of strength be maximized. Now he has to do physical training every morning, noon and evening so that his body can withstand [Shadow Sword] and other advanced swordsmanship, and at the same time, he has to do hundreds or even thousands of simple sword drawing, swinging, and stabbing movements, and use this simple and basic move to exercise the extreme sword speed. As a result, you will be able to gain Super Awakening in terms of speed when you open the Door of Choice.
To put it bluntly, this kind of honing of the foundation is constantly consolidated. In fact, it is the traditional sense of "card level". The more prepared you are in the early stages, the more ferocious your growth will be in the later stages, and Green is convinced of this.
"Your Highness Green? Ms. Vivien said it was about to wake up, would you like to come over now? β
At this moment, Albert's voice sounded in the young lord's heart, and his expression suddenly froze.
"Lilith. Miss Vivien made some discoveries at the bottom of Lake Avalon last night, and it seems to have something to do with the technical level, could you please come and have a look? Green looked at Lilith, who was slightly startled, and suddenly understood that it was something important. Immediately nodded in agreement.
After a little tidying up, the two of them set off and hurried to the room where "it" was. A long old corridor leads to the rooms on the north-east side of the castle, and the outer corridor crosses the walls to see the vista of the province of Aruma, a verdant expanse of greenery, and the shadow of the mountains that hang down like clouds always has a calming elevation.
"Al, Miss Vivien."
The lord of Jinlunga pushed open the door, and the air in the room circulated rapidly.
Albert turned around and saw Lilith behind Green, and was about to wink at the two of them, but he quickly noticed the glance of his Highness, and immediately withdrew his gaze with a dry cough.
"I heard that you are practicing swords, you are very diligent, little one." Vivien, in the form of the Holy Spirit, stood in a somewhat dimly lit room, but it seemed more real.
Green shrugged, "It's worth the bloodline." He didn't want to waste too much on the subject, so he looked up and tapped the big bed in the center of the room with his chin, "What's the situation?" β
Last night, Vivian's love affair was terrible, and in order not to touch the mold, Grimm wisely chose Sun Tzu's Art of War.
"To put it simply, this is a creature that has been sleeping at the bottom of Lake Avalon for a long, long time," Vivien didn't talk nonsense, directly explaining its origin, "First of all, you have to understand that the existence of Lake Avalon may date back to the time of the creation of the ancient gods, and I am not the first generation of residents, but after His Royal Highness the Seven Princes chose this land, I was recognized by Lake Avalon by chance. β
"I don't know if Lake Avalon has a life personality, but at least I've found out that it's not me who gets the recognition, it's the Lake Elves who are recognized," Vivi paused, "that is, it's some common trait of the Lake Elves that has won the approval of Lake Avalon." β
"Stupid, for example?" Green answered without thinking.
As soon as he said this, the boy knew that he was in trouble again, and as soon as he looked up, he saw the Holy Spirit Lady staring at him with an unkind expression.
"Uh...... When I didn't say. β
ββ¦β¦ In short, I want to tell you that there are still many secrets in Lake Avalon, and even the lake goblins who have lived here for hundreds of years can't fully find out," Green's occasional tricks are not once or twice, Vivien simply ignored it and said to herself, "The undead attack a few days ago exposed the lack of Jinlunga's defensive strength, so I thought about whether I could help you find some strength to strengthen your defense, and finally found this guy." β
"I don't know where it came from, but it doesn't seem too weak, and as the Holy Spirit, I can probably feel some of its similar properties to me, huh...... All in all, with your 'ability', you should be able to consider subduing it, and you may be able to make up for the lack of strength in Jinlunga's current strength. β
Vivien meant it so well that Green listened to it and immediately cast a grateful look at her.
But before he could speak, Lilith whispered from behind himβ
"It's awake!" (To be continued......)
