Chapter 574 Rumors of the Demon War
As a human being, it is not normal to risk your life to protect yourself for the sake of two weapons. What's more, those two stone blades don't have any special commemorative significance for Cream. If it weren't for the bewitchment of the tree's so-called dark power, I really couldn't think of a reason why Cream would take action to protect it.
Well, the problem is solved. The answer is that the definition of "dark power" is true, and this hidden power in oneself and in the body of Cream does have a certain degree of damage to the human mind and body.
In other words, is Napa's cat too weak to detect? Or is it deliberately hiding this? If it's hidden, what is the cat's reason?
Actually, if you think about it from another angle, the following things should be confirmed through the events of today's day and the conversation between me and Napa.
First of all, it was the Tree of Talk that called Napa an "old friend." But what exactly this "old friend" title means is not certain, it is an old friend of a hostile nature? Or an old friend in the nature of a real friend? It is impossible to judge.
Secondly, he originally thought that the cat was just a pet monster left by a magician in this town. But now it seems that the cat's history is at least as long as the tree of life in the human sense. In other words...... Either I have picked up a treasure, or I have picked up a big dark thunder! It's the kind that doesn't know when it's going to explode all of a sudden.
Finally, it's about the demons.
In fact, there are some records of the war between the old Teng Shu and the demons.
But those accounts are too exaggerated, and it is more appropriate to say that they are legends than historical records.
Under the leadership of the Demon King, the demon clan slaughtered tens of thousands of humans in an instant, and swept half of the entire continent with monsters, causing a large number of deaths and making life difficult for the people.
All in all, the description of that demon king is how terrible it is, how powerful it is. Compared to the description, the war with the Bloodline is simply more exaggerated to the point of no return!
If at least some traces of the real war can be seen in the war with the blood clan, then the war of the century with the demon clan is really a braggart war! It depends on which story is exaggerated and interesting, and can catch people's attention.
Therefore, except for knowing that the demons once launched a war of aggression against all the races in this world, there is almost no other information. No one even knows how many years ago this war took place, and it is simply a memory.
Now, at least two beings can be sure that they have a little understanding of that demon war.
Napa, and the old dead tree in the Misty Forest that loves damp mud.
As soon as she thought of this, the girl's heart couldn't help but get excited!
The war between the demons~~~!
This is a war story that has so far only been read as a legend!
If you can write a detailed historical record of the demon war based on the confessions of these two war witnesses, and then take it to Lao Tengshu's paper presentation to publish it, how famous does that represent? What a great fortune it represents?!
Just thinking about it, it's already a little unbearable, and I really want to start writing now, and record in detail those magnificent stories about the demon king and the brave! Take it out and publish it, and you can make a lot of money just by collecting royalties!
Thinking like this, the smile on the corner of the girl's mouth couldn't help but curl higher.
With this thought in mind, she slowly closed her eyes and slowly fell asleep with the dream of making a fortune.
- February 8, 1303, food expenses: -3 silver, 3 copper and 6 iron, flower fairy goods sold: 50 gold, flower goblin sales share: -25 gold, sundries commission: 6 copper, travel expenses: 30 gold, flower fairy travel expenses: -5 gold, salary: -5 gold and 6 iron, balance: 84 gold, 1 silver, 8 bronze and 3 iron (outstanding taxes: 119 gold, 2 silver, 8 copper and 1 iron) -
March, the spring season.
The winter snowflakes have long since melted, and the whole world seems to have faded from the white veil at this moment and changed into an emerald green dress.
In particular, the sparkling forest in the distance is now shining in this spring sun, revealing endless vitality!
The townspeople of Pelican Town also began to slowly take off their thick costumes and put on the colorful costumes of spring again. With the flower fairies who are constantly shuttling back and forth between the town's residents, this town can be said to be exuding the most powerful vitality.
Pushing open the door of the guild hall, Arrow took a deep breath and soaked in the fragrance of spring.
"Good morning, Lord Arrow."
Rose flew in with some of her sisters and greeted Arrow.
Arrow also waved at these flower fairies, smiling at the corners of his mouth.
Walking back to the counter, he took out his account books and calculated the income from the sale of goods in the previous days. Then give them the share that belongs to these flower fairies.
Rose picked up a gold coin and stuffed it into a small crossbody bag she was carrying. This delicate crossbody bag is just the right size for her to carry two gold coins without looking bloated, and everything looks so coordinated.
After the flower elves had all taken the gold coins, Arrow waved at Rose and smiled, "(Elf) Is your tourist area planned?" I can't wait to start business soon~~~! ”
Rose turned her head, and the cold smile on the corner of her mouth was not so pleasing: "(Fairy language) Lord Arrow, we won't delay when it's time for you to make money." It's still a little bit closer, and I still have to practice singing, so I'll let you know when I'm done. ”
Arrow sighed and said with a smile, "(Fairy Language) Can you try to go as fast as possible?" Money is such a thing...... If you delay for too long, humanity will lose interest in you and your income will be reduced. ”
Rose thought for a moment, then nodded, "(Elf) In that case, I'll tell my sisters to work harder." However, compared to our sisters, ......"
The flower fairy raised his head, looked at a door on the second floor of the Mermaid Song Guild, and said slowly, "(Fairy words) How is the situation of Lord Cream?" The smell of his body really made us feel uncomfortable. It was a smell that made our sisters more uncomfortable than the smell of the rotting tree. ”
Ero was a little embarrassed, he looked around, and after seeing that the other members didn't understand these words and continued to be busy, he smiled and said, "(Fairy language) really...... Is it so serious? Isn't it just a frustrated human being...... No matter how it is, it won't ......."
"Ahhh I can't stand it! Brad, take care of it! The smell is so bad! I really can't stand it anymore! ”
As he was talking, Pafay's babbling shouts suddenly came from the second floor.
As soon as Arrow looked up, he saw that the flower fairy was now rushing out of Cream's room, covering his nose and looking like he was about to run out of breath.
When Brad heard this, he hurriedly ran upstairs to comfort his partner. But it was when the big man came to the door of the cream room and sniffed it, that he asked with a strange face, "The taste?" What's the smell where? I've been helping to clean the cream room, and it doesn't smell. ”
"Oops! So your big stupid nose is so rubbed that you can't smell such a heavy smell? Forget it! I really can't stand it anymore! I'm going out to breathe, breathe! ”
As he spoke, the flower fairy flew out directly from the window on the second floor, not giving face to the arrow below.
And this president......
He looked around at Coco and Margaux, and couldn't help but smile, watching the flower fairy fly out of the window. Faintly, smiling......
Never mind! It's not once or twice that this flower fairy lacks heart eyes. Now Iro wasn't in the mood to bother with her about such a thing.
The flower elves saw that Arrow's expression was a little unfriendly now, and after saying a few words, they left. Brad entered Cream's room, and after a while he came out with a basin of cold water and a plate of dinner from yesterday's meal. After seeing Arrow's gaze, the big man could only shake his head slightly, showing a helpless look.
Arrow exhaled and told the members to go about their work first, then got up and went to the second floor, leaning in front of the door of Cream's room and looking inside.
The Assassin was now sitting in a chair, wrapped in a thick futon, staring blankly at the street outside the window. It looks like a complete loss of soul, weak and humble.
After thinking about it, Arrow turned his head and saw the two natural blades on the cabinet next to him, stepped forward to pick them up, and walked towards Cream.
"You...... How do you feel today? ”
Arrow made his voice as gentle as possible.
He was cautious, afraid that if he said something wrong, he would let Cream notice something.
Cream over there slowly turned her head when she heard the president's voice.
The face looked very thin, and the originally energetic assassin was now even shrunk into his cheeks. The whole face is full of haggard and decadent feeling.
After seeing that it was Airo, Cream's body couldn't help but tremble. His eyes seemed to be dodging, and he lowered his head slightly, carefully pulling the futon on his body a little tighter. It seems that at this moment, this futon is his protective shell, and only by staying in it can he feel a little bit safe.
