Chapter 162: The Mind of Gradually Letting Go
It is more uncomfortable to explain at any time than to cover up, let alone to face these folks who have cared for Drew since he was a child. In the face of this battle, White and Jamelia slipped away very unjustly, leaving Drew alone to face the crowd of interrogators.
In the face of them, Druben wanted to explain something, but after thinking about his identity, he realized that there really wasn't much to say. So in the face of all kinds of questions, Drew only smiled wryly and remained silent all the time. To be honest, although I just said on the road that it is terrible to have no knowledge, in the face of these dear relatives Drew feels that sometimes ignorance is the greatest protection for them. He didn't feel that he had 10 Saint-rank sub-professions, but he didn't have the corresponding strength to protect them, and after handing over this kind of secret to the villagers, their safety would be more guaranteed, but it would be extremely dangerous because of some unscrupulous people.
In the end, he hid to the side to watch the show, but White and Jamilia, who watched Drew remain silent and guessed what Drew was thinking, came forward to ease the emotions of the villagers and let Drew escape from this piece of condemnation. But looking at the expressions of the villagers, Drew understood that they were still acting to deceive them, and he felt a grudge in his heart.
Shaking his head with a wry smile, Drew first hesitated and called out the system panel, but after seeing the 3 "currently sealed", he still erased the little idea of what he wanted to explain in his heart.
"I'm very sorry that I have been deceiving you and causing you a lot of trouble. But if I could decide again, I would choose to continue to deceive everyone. That's all I can say, boy, and you'll see why I did it. β
The incompetent vest is gone, so it has to be dressed up again with a veil of mystery. After being rescued by White and Jamilia, Drew saluted the villagers present and said such a sentence. Because of the memory of his previous life, Drew, who has a mature mind, knows too well how much benefit his 10 holy rank sub-professions can bring to a force. So far, he has not been completely targeted by the major forces because almost all the people he often deals with are Saint-level powerhouses, and partly because the protection of the Father's contract is too strong, which has blocked him from a lot of trouble. At this moment, in the face of the villagers, Drew really hates his own ineffective system, and if it can give Drew the strength to at least protect himself, it will not let Drew face this embarrassment. Although most of it was self-inflicted on himself in order to pretend to be incompetent......
Sending off the folks doesn't mean Drew can take it easy. After being busy facing the questions of the villagers, Drew still had to pass the hurdle of his parents. For the sake of Drew's future, Kova and his wives had to worry about a lot of gray hair, but in the end, they found out that Drew was actually a real genius, but a helpless anger rose in their hearts.
"Drew, don't say it!"
"I know that mom and dad don't understand and are angry at this kid's behavior of hiding from his family. But I think it's something he's doing to better protect us. Although he is now gradually recognized by the world, to be honest, it is only some inconsequential parts! So dad and mom ask me why I can know these secrets and you can't, right? Because of your son, I have the strength and status to maintain myself even if I know these secrets! So please don't embarrass this kid Drew. β
When Drew faced his family and began to struggle again, White did not choose to wait and see this time, but stood up in time. He first stopped Drew's ramblings, and then spoke them to his parents with questions on their faces.
The Holy Order is a mysterious realm, and White found that when he officially stepped into this realm, he could discover the ins and outs of some things at a deeper level. So although he was a little angry when he learned about Drew's identity from his master, he didn't take it to heart again after he figured out the key to it. This time too, in the face of the tangled Drew, White, as the eldest brother, chose to stand up on his own.
Because White himself has reached the Holy Rank and understands the unique world of the Holy Order, he knows too well that his brother Drew, who once made the rule-bestowed treasure of the Tears of Light, brewed the Luna Wine, and has just made the Holy Order Elixir, has too many unspeakable secrets. Truth be told, if Drew chooses to publish all his deeds so far, then his legend will definitely be no less than that of his long-established monster. The best proof of this is that they have been called monster brothers on Dragon Island.
After seeing Drew's helpless expression, Drew's three younger sisters, Lina, Rees, and Miria, who were taken aback by their parents' attitude, chose to "betray" their brother. They regretfully confessed to their parents that they had kept the jewel fabricator secret for Drew, and each took out a few magic ornaments that they had "swiped" from Drew. Watching a group of daughters crying and repenting there, the last little anger in the hearts of Kova and his wives disappeared.
"Well, since you kid White said so, then we won't pursue it too much. But when the time comes, I hope Drew will tell us everything yourself, instead of choosing to hide behind your big brother. β
Finally Kova sighed and began to tell his wives to coax their weeping daughters. The awkward atmosphere of the Maple family has also become warm again with the scene of the mother coaxing her daughter.
I don't know why, when Drew saw this situation, he found that his state of mind was suddenly extremely relaxed, and it seemed that Drew, who had been lying to his family, also had a certain discomfort in his heart. Seeing this Drew, Gemilia silently stood beside him and secretly pulled him. Looking back at his little fiancΓ©e looking worriedly, Drew lip-to-mouth said that it was okay, and then took out the cake that had been prepared from the space ring and joined the team of coaxing his sisters. Of course, when they saw Drew's action, they immediately reacted to what this meant and Kova and his wives suddenly shrank their pupils.
"That's all I can say, Dad. His Majesty the Elven King Kasha came to our house only half for me and the other half for you, the second son. I think it won't be long before this kid can't hide his identity. Until then, please can you wait for him? β
White, who walked over to Cova, looked at Drew and said to his father. Looking at this warm scene, Kova also nodded, and agreed to his eldest son's proposal.
This year's New Year was especially meaningful for the Maple family.
Drew, who had put all the baggage in his heart, first invited the Moonblade Leopard family on New Year's Day. They were taken aback by the group of Luna darlings who suddenly appeared at home, but quickly came back to their senses after remembering the words of their eldest son and began to chat with them. Thunderblade and Nightblade cautiously began to chat with Drew's parents, looking at the busy Drew from time to time. Both of them were a little puzzled as to why Drew had suddenly invited the family.
"I didn't say much, but it was also a reminder and a little bit of preparation. As long as you don't say the identity of the kid Drew, the rest is casual. β
Looking at the two Moonblade Leopards of the Adamantine Rank, who were extremely restrained in the face of their parents of the Black Iron, Bronze and Silver Rank, White once again acted as an interpreter. Of course, he knew why these two were so reserved, just because he was afraid that revealing Drew's secret would cause unnecessary trouble to the Maple family.
Thunderblade and Nightblade, who were relieved after hearing White's explanation, finally breathed a sigh of relief, let go of all their doubts, and began to talk to Kova and them about the Parenting Secrets. Mouse, Car, the three siblings, and a certain bearcub who is drowsy due to the weather are sent by them to the forest to prepare ingredients for dinner for Drew. They have a lot of food, and they can't waste their winter reserves.
As for Drew, first of all, he kicked all the moms out of the kitchen and declared ownership of the kitchen for the day. Then he started to get busy before and after, preparing to make a table of delicacies from his past life for a festive dinner. Of course, seeing the three brothers and sisters of the Moonblade Leopard and Storm Shadow who still got a lot of ingredients from the winter forest, Drew also prepared some more dishes. He plans to send these delicious dishes to every household in the village, so that they can taste these delicious dishes as a little salvation that he has hidden from his fellow villagers. Drew believed that when the villagers saw the beautiful food made with the strength of his Holy Rank chef and tasted the deliciousness, they would definitely reduce their resentment towards him a lot.
To Drew's surprise, Jamilia and her sisters offered to ask Drew to learn how to cook, and a certain lady with an unhappy face would talk about it later. It seems that after seeing Drew's superb knife skills, flowing posture and confident expression in the kitchen, her self-esteem as a woman has taken a lot of blows. Although it would be a waste of time to explain to them while cooking, and these future ladies are still a group of rookie cooks, in order not to leave them with regrets in their hearts, Drew still tried his best to explain to them and let them make their first dishes. Although the dishes were more than a little different from what Drew made, Drew's parents were still very happy to eat their daughters' first dishes first.
As for the unhappy one, of course, it was Drew's second sister Zyra. As a woman, she was laughed at by her mothers and rushed into the kitchen, and she has no interest in the profession of chef herself. So looking at the eyes of my younger brother who caused this situation is also very unkind. Of course, because she made food with this mentality, she ended up making dark dishes.
After bringing food to all the villagers, Drew, who returned home, took out a barrel of green quality 100 fruit wine and blue quality 100 fruit wine respectively because of White's desperate entanglement, so that the Maple family could spend a New Year's feast of wine and meat. It's a pity that most of the 2 barrels of wine went into the stomachs of White and Jean, making Drew snoring and wasting it.
