Green walked in front first, followed by the female knight Xiona with her hands folded in front of her waist, if she hadn't seen her dancing swordsmanship, Green would have misunderstood her image at the moment, probably she should be a more shy girl.

"Your Highness."

Rushing to Albert, Hu followed the mage with a quick greeting, and then walked side by side with Green, glancing at Xiona, who was staring at her toes for some reason, and reported to Green in a low voice: "She was already here at dusk, and I almost didn't recognize her." I heard that you would be back soon, and she insisted on waiting for you at the door, but I couldn't persuade you at all. ”

"It's okay, I also have something to talk to her." Green replied calmly.

"There's one more thing." The Servant Mage continued to speak.

Green raised his eyebrows, having a premonition about what was going to happen, "Sue me, is that good news?" ”

"That's right," Albert said with a smile on his face, "Everyone in the trial space has already signed a contract with the Examiner, you should really look at that scene, some of them were so suppressed that they had no temper to sign, and some of them were eager to sign immediately, and it is said that the Examiner was in a good mood because of this." ”

Uncle Lan is very happy?

Green was surprised in his heart, this was a rare scene than Albert's seriousness, but it was a pity.

"For your safety, the Inquisitor did not release all the personnel, but according to our plan, we chose the necromancer named Nimbas, who has already set off for the stronghold of the Supreme Funeral Society, if he can survive and successfully integrate the resources in it, then we can start to attack the entire Funeral Society." Albert said, looking confident.

"Isn't there still a blockade over there in the warehouse area?"

Green asked, and a post house servant pushed open the door. The three of them walked in one after another.

"Don't worry, because of your dukedom, I've taken care of everything, and I'll leave the rest to Nimbas, and if he fails, it's just that we've lost an investment project." Albert replied with a smile.

"Hmph. Bully people by flaunting one's powerful connections. Green scolded with a laugh.

"You've taught you well." Albert laughed like a fox.

Entering the room with a warm fire, Green took off his somewhat cumbersome jazz suit and handed it to Albert. The latter took the clothes and was about to get up and leave, making room for this complicated relationship between men and women, but she didn't expect Xiona to see him leaving, but she spoke a little nervously.

"That's, that'......"

Albert was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized: "Oh! I'm so sorry, I almost forgot about it! ”

Green stared back at him quizzically.

"Yes, Miss Siona brought a homemade dinner. It's heating in the kitchen of the inn, what do you think ......? Master Hu asked solemnly.

Green glanced at the knight in amazement, perhaps in the light of the fireplace, her face was flushed, and she was pinching the corners of her clothes uneasily.

"Then bring it up, let's talk while we eat."

The young duke nodded indispensably, and Albert immediately showed a 'understood' expression, turned and closed the door and left.

The female knight quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

Spent a day sitting on a wooden stool. Without hesitation, Green chose to sink himself into the couch and relax his hips. Suddenly, he noticed that the female knight on the side was a little overwhelmed. Green beckoned to her with a smile, "Why are you sitting, standing?" ”

Siona, who finally saw a vivid expression on Green's face, hurriedly walked over and sat opposite Green.

Perhaps feeling a little nervous, the female knight sat in a proper manner, but looked even more shy. Green glanced at her, and was immediately amazed by the flush that appeared on the face of the ice beauty, and then thought of the feelings of the little woman who cooked with her own hands, and suddenly felt that the female knight was also quite cute.

"So ......" "...... today"

The two men spoke at the same time, stunned at the same time.

"Then you speak first." "Let's talk first."

It is also to speak at the same time and be humble at the same time. The two looked at each other, but Green shook his head with a smile to break the deadlock.

"How's the Knights' rebuilding going?" The young duke gave up the straight to the point he had prepared and asked casually. He was too lazy to move, so he stretched out his arm to pull the fire stick, and threw it directly at the fireplace, shaking out a sword wind, knocking over the burning wood with a snap, and immediately stirring up sparks to splash around.

Xiona was startled when she saw this, and hurriedly jumped out to extinguish the spark that collapsed, then took the fire stick from Green's hand, squatted in front of the fireplace and carefully collected firewood, and then replied with her back to Green: "The main building fortress has not been damaged much, the repair has basically been completed, and the most difficult part has been overcome with your help, only waiting for the Knights headquarters to send a new commander, so most of the Anglican knights are resting at home." ”

She turned around and said earnestly, "Thank you, Griffy, if it weren't for your advice to Her Highness the Princess, the Knights of the Anglican Church would probably have been reorganized." ”

Green, who was staring at the round and full beauty, quietly looked away, lest the female knight see where his gaze landed.

"So you came to me today to thank me on behalf of the Anglican Knight?"

Sticking the stick on the iron frame beside her, the female knight sat back on the sofa - Grimm regretted this - she looked at Grimm with some inexplicable charm in her eyes, "Now that the knights of the royal capital are in charge of the Ziegler brothers, they will naturally come to visit you and thank you in person, Griffi, I ...... today." It's a person who wants to have an open and honest conversation with you. ”

As he spoke, the servant brought the meal prepared by the female knight, brought it into the room of the two at Albert's behest and placed it on the round coffee table on the sofa at the direction of Green. He had always disliked the way of eating one dish for another, so he asked for it all to be served except on formal occasions.

"It's rare that you bothered to make dinner, and we can talk while we eat." Green waved his hand as he spoke, signaling that the servants did not need to serve, and soon the room was clean again.

The dishes chosen by the female knights were so delicate that they could even be described as high-class, and in general, only professional chefs who served the aristocracy could master them with ease. At a cursory glance, he could roughly recognize the pork and red wine soup before the meal. Arugula salad and meat cake with onion and lemon sauce. Before drinking the soup, Green first picked a bite of the meat cake, which was soft and fragrant in the mouth, and had a faint smell of sea.

"Swordfish cakes?" Most of the meat cakes are mainly minced fish and minced pork, and Green only ate one bite. I guessed the raw materials.

Sure enough, Siona nodded hurriedly.

"It tastes good." Green swallowed the soup, feeling no less than the chef's work in the inn.

Appreciated by the teenager, the female knight was pleasantly surprised.

The hard work of the past few days has finally not been in vain.

At the end of the day, Green, who had only eaten some desserts, was obviously very hungry with an empty stomach, and it was also very palatable to catch up with the delicacies that the female knight had painstakingly eaten, so he naturally feasted on it. It eats like a tiger. Siona accompanied him to the meal, but she moved slowly, serving a little salad and two meatloaf on a plate, and then swallowing it in small bites, looking much more elegant than Gobbling Green.

But it's not that she's reserved—

She ate slowly, as all her eyes fell on Green's.

Looking at Grimm, who was as stormy as a child, the corners of Xiona's mouth were full of happy smiles. It's just that behind this smile, there is the bitterness that makes her cry from her dreams. When I met Grimm. She was both happy and sad for the sake of easing the relationship between the two. She decided to learn from her mother, who was good at cooking, and cook a meal for Green. But when she was really ready to learn from a friend's cook, she couldn't remember what Grimm liked to eat, so she could only desperately recall her mother's usual dishes, and then make zuò dishes based on the ingredients - and even later adjusted to more high-end dishes because Grimm was made a duke.

Is it hard?

Hard of course. As the chief knight of the Anglican Order, she has her own learning indicators and work tasks, and after the earthquake in the royal capital, she has countless tasks to do every day, and she can only spare time to learn cooking skills during dinner time in the evening. Those days. She spent almost every night with bread in her mouth, over the fire and in the smoke of the cooking.

Is it worth it?

In her worried heart, there was no answer.

But when she saw the sweetness of Green's meal, she only felt that there was nothing happier and more cost-effective in the world.

I was such a fool in the past......

She couldn't help but think.

"Huh?"

At this moment, Green let out a confused nasal voice, and the female knight came back to her senses, saw him staring at the pie in his hand, and thought that there was something wrong with her own craftsmanship, and hurriedly reached out to grab the pie, "Does it taste bad?" Still not to your taste? I、It's the first time I've made this kind of pie, and when I taste it, I think it's delicious, and I want to make it so that you can often make it, and sure enough, the main food should be bread......"

The somewhat nervous Xiona probably didn't know what she was saying, because at that moment, the young duke suddenly made a move and grabbed her soft.

Sheona felt her heart beat faster and her brain go blank.

Her hands are silky, cold and cold, and very comfortable to touch, although she is a little calloused because of sword practice, it will not make people feel any disgust. Green felt her temperature, but not simply to take advantage, his gaze fell on her fingers.

“…… Does it hurt? ”

He asked, somehow feeling strange in his heart.

The female knight had a thin bandage wrapped around her fingers, and he hadn't noticed it before, and at first he thought it was a scar left by the battle, but he quickly changed his judgment, probably because he accidentally cut his hand while chopping vegetables while cooking.

He looked up at Siona.

When she shook her head happily and said, "It doesn't hurt", the strange feeling in Green's heart finally hit his senses.

The heart hurts.

Me, for her heartache?

Green was stunned for a moment, his palm subconsciously rubbing her fingers.

"Why bother......"

Xiona watched Grimm bow her head slightly, burying her expression in the shadows, so she leaned down and squatted in front of Grimm, letting him grasp her hand, and replied softly: "I always want to wait until I take up my official position, go home to see you, and then cook you a meal, and then use your unbounded kindness to ease our relationship lightly." ”

"But I was wrong."

"You have grown up, you are no longer the ignorant child, you have grown into a handsome young man. You have your own view of right and wrong, your own judgment, and most importantly. What I have done has been deeply imprinted in your heart, like skin scratched with a fingernail, even if it heals, it will leave a scar, and I knew it from the moment I realized it. I can't run away anymore, pretend that our relationship can still be the same as before, and pretend that I can escape forgiveness by virtue of your indifference. ”

The young man's hand was slightly withdrawn, and Xiona, who was startled, was about to let go in a hurry, but she quickly realized that Green's reaction was not strong, so she gritted her teeth and put her other hand on the back of Green's hand, trembling slightly but unwilling to let go.

"I have repented day and night. Confess my sins to Luna. ”

"I never ask God to forgive me, I just beg you to give me a chance to atone for my sins."

"I'm ready to pay a qiē for this! If you can beat me up and scold me for it, or even turn around on me like I did to you, I'll feel a little at ease. ”

"But why? Why don't you do that! ”

"What I've done should make you hate me to the core!"

The female knight's voice suddenly rose, but another tear slipped silently.

"Why should I be left to chance......

"Why should I think I'll be able to get your forgiveness......"

Why have you never changed, even if you are cruel and indifferent to me? But after only a few days, I couldn't help but soften my attitude.

That desperate day. You came to my rescue.

You helped the Knights of the Anglican Church, and only because of my request.

"I beg you, please don't break off our relationship, is that okay?"

"I ...... That's all it to ask ......"

"Let me ...... There can be a chance to compensate you......"

"Please......"

She burst into tears, unable to speak.

Yiqiē shouldn't have developed like this, and she was ready to think of the wording. After dinner, confess her past mistakes to Grimm, so that whether he forgives or not, at least the first boulder in her heart can be put down.

But now, the whole mountain has collapsed.

But there was no response from the boy.

Siona looked up crying. I still couldn't see the young man's expression, my heart was sinking a little bit, my body was cold, and I was so desperate that I felt like I was going to die.

She smiled wryly.

Failed again......

I...... Sure enough, I still can't ......

"The pie is delicious."

…… Huh?

"It's drunken pulp, right? It's hard to get in Mierte, but this season the drunken berry will be a little astringent, which slightly affects the taste. ”

You......

Why......?

"But that's okay, it's my favorite food since I was a kid."

The boy looked up, and what was left for the female knight was a big smiling face.

"So thank you."

"Sister."

Just for a moment, Xiona seemed to feel like she was being struck by lightning, and her whole person was in a trance.

He just ...... Call me......

…… Sister?

She looked at Green in a daze, and on her rainy face, she could no longer maintain the little strength she had left, and her tears burst into her eyes, and she burst into the arms of the young duke.

"I'm sorry, Griffi, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry......"

"I'm sorry ......"

At this moment, the identities of the two were reversed, Green was like an older brother, a female knight with a little sister in her arms, gently patting her back, leaning her cheek on her head, and gently brushing her smooth hair.

"It's okay anymore."

"Anyway, I've forgiven you a long time ago."

Is there a blood relationship, and what does it matter?

Who their parents are and what they have done is only a matter of their generation after all.

It doesn't matter anymore.

She's just an older sister, and I'm just a younger brother.

That's all.

"I'm Gleffie, Siona's brother, please advise."

The female knight didn't speak, just hugged Green tighter.

It's as if I won't let go of it again in this life.

The fire crackled.

"Mr. Assesses, I'm so impressed......"

Outside the room, Albert, who had been eavesdropping from beginning to end, bit his handkerchief and looked like he was about to cry, if it weren't for the fear that Green's discovery would affect the confiding between the two, I am afraid that he would have shed tears of emotion and joy like watching his master grow up as an old minister. Commander Kunali, who had been dragged by him but always had his back to the room, remained as silent as a stone statue, as if he had no idea what was going on inside.

But if he didn't care, how could Al, as a mage, pull him.

On the face of the knife and axe, there was a hint of a smile that no one could check.

You deserve it, Your Highness. (To be continued......)
