Chapter 11 Travel
Lulunaka follows Barr away. Naturally, Barr didn't come on foot, he had a carriage and a coachman. Lulunaka followed him into the carriage and sat down face to face. In such a winter, even the inside of the carriage felt cold, so at the feet of the two of them, there was a small stove with a well-sealed fire, and the light of the fire was swaying in it.
The carriage was moving slowly, causing the bodies of the people in the carriage to shake slightly. Lulunaka rubbed her hands together and reached for a breath to warm her mouth. It's so warm, I've never been in a carriage like this.
"If it's warmer, your mobile workshop should be warmer. Baal had made a few trips and learned a little about the shop with the name Luna's Cauldron on it, and also learned that Lunaka's place of work was in the courtyard behind the store. "That's a really peculiar design. ”
"It's easier to get around. Lulunaka laughs, "And when you're on the road, you can do less delicate work." ”
"Won't the liquid in that pot spill out?"
Lulunaka shook her head, "Of course you wouldn't do such a stupid thing on a bumpy road, but it's okay to deal with something viscous." Speaking of which, Lulunaka looked around the carriage like a little peasant girl who had stepped into such a good carriage for the first time, "Speaking of which, although I know Lord Barr, I don't know anything else besides Lord Barr...... What kind of person is that young lady who wants to see me?"
Barr didn't answer Lulunaka's question, "Wouldn't it be better if you could confirm it yourself?"
"And what is the name of that young lady......"
Barr didn't respond to this question either, "You'll know when the time comes." ”
Barr didn't embarrass Lunaka, as his young lady had ordered her to meet Lulunaka face-to-face, which was more interesting to her...... More sincerely.
No matter what kind of idea his own young lady has, as a subordinate, as long as it is not too much, he will do it. However, most of the young lady's actions are done for fun, and Barr is very aware of this.
"I shouldn't have any problems with the way I look, right?" Lulunaka still looked uneasy, tugging at the hem of her clothes, "Isn't it too sloppy?"
Barr looked at Lulunaka, "As long as it's clean, don't worry too much about anything else." ”
Barr didn't say this kind words to put Lulunaka at ease, he knew very well what kind of person his young lady was. She's not the kind of person who judges people by their clothes, and she doesn't care about that as long as it's not because it's dirty. Of course, there are some people who deliberately dress up and show themselves, she doesn't mind sending a few words of "praise", and that kind of existence is mostly among young aristocrats.
Lulunaka listened to Baal's words, touched her hair again, and used her hand as a comb to arrange it. "That should be fine, right?" her cloak had been lowered, and the way she straightened her hair caught Barr's attention. For a little girl who does alchemy, her hair is quite well maintained, much better than that of a girl from a civilian family.
Lulunaka was a little overly reserved and nervous, but Barr didn't hate it, or rather, it made him feel at ease. He could see that Lulunaka wasn't pretending to be like this, she was indeed a girl who didn't seem to have much scheming. While there was something unsettling about the things she made, Barr thought it was probably the work of a child who wanted to show off his skills—a creature that was sometimes naïve and cruel enough.
Barr isn't a talker, and Lulunaka is a little uncomfortable due to her nervousness. There was no word along the way, until the carriage stopped. "We're here, let's go down. Barr said to Lulunaka.
After the two men got down, the carriage stopped outside a manor. Lulunaka did come to the residence of a nobleman, and it seemed that she was quite a wealthy nobleman. In a place like King's Castle, there are not many people who hold the title of nobility, and there are even more down-and-out, after all, in such a place with a long history, there are countless people who have been crowned nobles and then become bankrupt.
And the person Lulunaka was going to meet next didn't seem to have such worries. The manor is dominated by dark cyan hues, the outer walls are sturdy, and the fences on the walls are shining with a metallic sheen, no matter how you look at it, the people who live here don't look like people who are worried about money.
Luluna was behind Barr, looking at the guards standing at the gate, a little trembling, "Lord Barr, is this it?"
"This is not a man-eating cave, don't worry. Baal said to Lulunaka, "I believe you, Lord Baal, don't hurt me." ”
Seeing that Lulunaka was a little scared, Barr didn't seem to be afraid to run away, and patted her on the shoulder, "You are Miss's guest, no one will embarrass you." ”
"Won't anyone be blocked out because of what I'm wearing?"
Barr couldn't help but smile at Lulunaka's naïve words, "You also like to read those knight novels?"
"Those novels are interesting. Lulunaka replied.
Barr had also read those novels cursorely, but it was because his own young lady had dragged him to read them. In those romantic novels, when a girl from a poor family enters the world of high society, someone will indeed play the role of a harlequin, come out to embarrass her, and then the prince and knight...... A male protagonist like this will appear as a hero to save the beauty.
Barr understands why these novels are popular, and what girl doesn't dream of something unrealistic, even aristocratic women, read this kind of romantic novel.
But the one who pulled him to watch it didn't watch it because he liked it. Halfway through the pages, the young lady burned the book and laughed at the women who read the novels for "numbing themselves with poison." But even if she said that, in the end, she left some romance novels behind, and it wasn't all rubbish.
Baal brings a slightly nervous Lulunaka into the manor. The estate was not large, and it seemed that it was not for the use of a large family, but for the private use of only one or two people. Such estates were generally used by the nobility to keep mistresses—although this is a prejudice, but it is true.
