Chapter 34: Shock
Lilina was holding a slender wooden stick in one hand, she looked at the two wooden sticks, and didn't know why: "Senior, what are you giving me two wooden sticks for?" ”
Harold explained: "It's not two sticks! Rather, it is a type of tableware called 'chopsticks'. ”
"Cutlery?? Chopsticks?! Lilina held a chopstick in one hand, used both hands together, picked up a piece of eggplant, and pouted: "Senior, is this how this stick is used?" What a troublesome cutlery. ”
"You've come up with the right principle, but you're doing it wrong." Harold said. But the girl behaved much better than the first time he ate with chopsticks, at least she knew that it was used to pick up the dishes.
The first time Harold ate with chopsticks, he thought it was used to test the food for poison, so he took two chopsticks and ordered all the food on the table, and then carefully observed the color of the tips of the chopsticks.
At that time, this ridiculous behavior shocked several people at the same table.
"That's how it works." Harold showed her how to hold the chopsticks, and then picked up a piece of tofu with the chopsticks.
“!!!!! Good..... It's amazing! Lilina immediately exclaimed, and Harold felt that this was the most heartfelt compliment she had ever given herself. This kind of thing called 'tofu' is so soft that the predecessors can actually pick it up with two wooden sticks, has it been practiced for many years? ”
"Actually...... It's actually very simple, and you'll be able to use it quickly and proficiently. Harold suddenly felt a little ashamed, remembering that he saw a table full of people using two wooden sticks to pick up soft tofu or sugar-filled poached eggs, and he really thought that the table was full of kung fu masters.
"I'll come, I'll try!" Lilina, the little girl, was eager to try, and she immediately took action.
Three minutes later, Lilina excitedly shouted, "Senpai, I succeeded!" Lo and behold, I'm clipped! ”
Harold glanced at the plate of tofu that had been completely crushed, and said calmly, "Oh! ”
Lilina ate the piece of tofu in one gulp, drank half a glass of wine, and then she muttered, "It's a pity that Sister Edith refused to come, otherwise the senior could have let her learn how to use this new tableware." ”
"It's great not to come, with the amount of alcohol she drinks, she won't tear down my house if she gets drunk!" Harold pursed his lips, and then he asked, "I'm curious how you got your drinking." ”
"When I was a kid, no one cared about me at home. I snuck into my cellar and drank the mead. Lilina said, and then she chuckled, "Why did the senior ask this?" Are you trying to get me drunk or something? But little Vivien was watching. ”
Lilina gestured to the little white dragon on her shoulder.
Harold also smiled and said, "Although I am not a serious gentleman, I still won't do this kind of thing." However, you'd better not get drunk, this time won't let you sleep in bed, and if you get drunk, you'll be thrown outside. ”
Lilina immediately defined Harold: "Eh, senior, what a heartless man." ”
Harold glanced at Lilina: "That's natural, people are not ruthless, and they can't stand steadily." ”
"I get along with my seniors a lot, and it's not too easy to learn badly." Lilina's golden eyes blinked, as if she was thinking of some bad idea. "Seniors, should you consider submitting a manuscript to the school magazine? That's my responsibility now. ”
"School magazine? Anyone is watching that thing? What do you want me to write? ”
"I can provide you with information about the situation in the Western Empire. It is said that the Central Army of the Salga Empire has begun to move today. The big news about the empire is coming lately. Think about it, there are many students from the upper echelons of the empire in our academy, and the school magazine will be popular when it comes to this east wind. ”
Harold smiled, and he shook his head slightly: "Fighting is not a good thing. ”
Lilina propped her hand on the table and propped her chin up. This time she suddenly became serious: "What the senior said is right, fighting is not a good thing. The good, the bad, the able-bodied, the thin, the rich, the poor...... Countless people could die as a result. But whether we wipe a tear of sympathy from them now, or do something else, nothing can change. ”
In the end, she concluded: "The Sarga Empire has dominated the continent for more than four hundred years, but there is no eternal overlord in this world, and it is time for it to decay, this is natural, and no one can stop it." However, I am now the head of our academy magazine, so in my opinion, the matter of the Imperial Civil War is just a news that can be stirred up. ”
Harold looked at the girl's lovely face under the light, and his heart suddenly tightened, and he was about to say something, but was interrupted by Lilina's next behavior.
Lilina suddenly shook her head vigorously, and she said, "Don't say so much, senior, I'll ask you, do you do this or not?" It's a great opportunity to get paid! ”
"Why, why don't you do such a thing?" Harold said, "It's just that you shouldn't say it." ”
Lilina smiled: "When it comes to getting paid, it will become so refreshing, this is the style of the predecessors!" ”
As she spoke, Lilina stood up: "Now, I have a reward for my seniors!" ”
"Reward?" Before Harold could react, the girl's lips were already pressed against his.
The girl's lips are a little cold.
************************************************
At half past eight in the evening, Harold sent Lilina back to the academy and then back home.
Walking into the door, he looked at the mess of cups and plates on the dining table, sighed, he glanced at the plates and dishes, chopsticks, knives and forks on the table to be cleaned up, and decided to clean them when he got up tomorrow morning.
Harold walked into the bedroom, first put the young white dragon he was holding back into the cage, and then rested the cage on the windowsill of the next room.
After doing these things, Harold lay down on the bed, he touched his lips, and said to himself, "Reward? It's more about a punishment. ”
He thought, "Lilina, girl. Seriously, if you want to have no breasts, you have no legs, even if you strip naked and get into my arms, I don't necessarily have to look at two more ..... I'll still look at it twice. ”
"And the kiss is terrible, it's like a puppy licking its lips. It's just an itch, not a lot of charm. ”
Thinking of this, Harold began to laugh: "This girl is bold and thick-skinned. Or is it because my current appearance is too unmanly. ”
At that time, Lilina kissed Harold and faced Harold's surprised and puzzled eyes. Lilina's face was not red, her heart was not beating, and she explained with a nonchalant expression: "Actually, I just want to try it with my seniors, don't care." Then he added: "This is my first kiss, my first kiss!" ”
"Hahahaha!! Lilina, you're such a funny little girl. Harold laughed, pounding the bed with his hands.
After a while, Harold lay down in bed and fell asleep.
I don't know how long he slept, and Harold, who had always slept lightly, was awakened by the sound of Soso, and when he opened his eyes, he realized that something was wrong.
If a burglar had entered, Harold would have been awakened by the sound of the doors and windows being pried open, and he couldn't tell what was making a noise now.
So he fumbled for a steel one-handed axe by the pillow, and picked up his dagger from the bedside table.
Harold holds an axe in one hand and a dagger in the other. He walked out of the bedroom door quickly and softly, and felt his way to the next room in the darkness.
"Knock~~", a long bell rang.
This is the sound of the College City bell beginning to tell the time.
Harold silently wrote down the number of the bells.
“1.....2......3......4......”
His hand had reached the doorknob of the next door.
“6.....7......8.....”
Harold turned the brass handle on the door, then gently pushed the door open.
Outside the window, in the moonlight, a dark shadow. The dark shadow did not rely on it, but hovered in the air in front of the window.
With the moonlight on his back, he couldn't see his eyes clearly, but Harold could clearly sense that the man was staring at him.
Harold quickly glanced around the room, and he saw that the cage containing the little white dragon had been torn open and the inside was already empty.
The "Blood Covenant" technique of the necklace on Harold's chest was activated in an instant, and he immediately attacked the mysterious black-robed man.
"Who are you?!" Harold let out a loud shout, and the axe in his hand was thrown with this explosion, and the black shadow was slightly on one side, ready to dodge the throwing axe.
At this moment, two more bells rang.
Harold was as swift as a ghost, and in just two seconds, he had rushed to the window, grasping the handle of the throwing axe, which was still spinning in mid-air, and pulled his arm back, trying to hook the dark shadow with the inside blade of the axe.
However, he was half a second late, and the sharpness of the axe blade was only a few centimeters away from touching the black-robed man.
"Knock~~" The last bell rang, and it was already 11 o'clock in the night.
Harold lost a trick, and the black-robed man floated like a ghost to the roof of the residential building next door.
Without a trace of hesitation, Harold jumped out of the room, jumped to the roof where the black-robed man was, and confronted the black-robed man four or five meters away.
Harold bent his knees slightly, lowered his body, and held the steel axe in one hand and the dagger in the other, and asked in a very threatening tone:
"You, an accomplice of the viper?"
