Chapter 53: A Wise Decision
"You said your father listened to a sheep and drove you out of the house?" Freya looked incredulous and asked Gelwitt.
Jerwig nodded.
"You said your master carpenter gave you a table that automatically conjures up food?" Freya asked again.
Gelwitt nodded vigorously.
"You said your food table was secretly changed by the innkeeper?"
Gelwett nodded heavily.
Freya sneered, swept her disdainful eyes over Gelwitt, and said angrily, "Mr. Gelwitt, are you joking with us?" ”
"No, I'm telling the truth! Flower of justice, Miss Freya! Lord Zorro, Light of Justice, please believe me! "Gelwett was in a hurry.
Freya smiled, "Mr. Gerwitt, your jokes are really funny!" But do you think we look like fools? ”
"How can a man understand the words of a sheep? I won't talk about that. Let's just say that a table that can automatically conjure up delicious food, such a precious thing, would an ordinary carpenter master give it out at will? ”
"Mr. Gerwaitt, thank you so much for bringing us this unfunny story, but this is the end of the story, let's go our separate ways."
Freya felt cheated.
In the days of following William's wanderings, she actually encountered this kind of thing a lot.
There are always these self-righteous liars!
Yes, Freya thinks Gervit is a liar.
William remained silent, thinking about things in his heart.
In this matter, he was already quite sure that Gelwitt was the eldest son of the tailor in the story of "The Table, the Golden Donkey and the Stick" in Grimm's fairy tales.
But fairy tales are fairy tales, but for William now, it's reality!
The illogical part of the fairy tale, the problem that Freya has just pointed out, is exactly what William wants to know.
So when Freya confronted Gerwitt, he remained silent.
Because he also wants to know the answer.
Gervit was in a hurry, and he hurriedly explained, "That's not the case, Miss Freya, Lord Zorro! ”
Gelwitt lowered his head and hesitated for a long time.
Freya couldn't help but want to pull William away, but William stopped her.
Because William knew that what Gerlivet said was true.
William just wanted to know what was hidden behind the surface of the fairy tale.
So he waited!
Finally he waited.
After hesitating for a long time, Gerwitt finally said, "Miss Freya, Lord Zorro, that's because our family has a special ability. ”
"Special abilities?" Freya looked playful.
"What special abilities?" William looked serious.
"Mr. Zorro, do you believe me?" Gerwett looked at William.
William also looked at Gelwett and nodded.
This seemed to give Gelvet great courage, and he took a deep breath and said in a low tone, "Yes, a special ability, our family calls this ability Animal Companion!" ”
"Animal companions?" Seeing William so serious, Freya also became skeptical.
"Yes! This skill allows us to listen to the animals and communicate better with them! There was a faint pride in Jeerwitt's tone, "It is this ability that allows us to listen to the words of the sheep, and it is also this ability that allows me to use the power of animals to avoid here, and I was not captured by the Buji City Guards on the way!" ”
"I used this ability as tuition and let my teacher take me. My teacher wasn't really a simple carpenter, he was an alchemist who was good at enchanting things, especially wooden ones! The table that can automatically conjure up delicious food is my master's work! ”
"It's made of the wood of the precious gold and bronze power linden tree, and there is a constant food creation on it! The wood of the Golden Bronze Lime Tree slowly absorbs the energy in the air and turns into the magic activated by the Food-making Technique, and as long as you chant a spell and imagine the food in your heart, it will extract the ingredients in the nearby area and make exquisite food. ”
"The gourmet table can be served five times a day!"
"After my study time expired, my teacher gave me this desk!"
"Lord Zorro, this table is very important to me, please help me take it back! I'd like to dedicate this ability to animal companions to you! Gerwett pleaded.
William was silent, Freya looked at this scene, frowned slightly, and asked William, "Lord Zorro, do you believe this man's words?" ”
"Miss Flower of Justice, what I said is true! If there is a lie in my words, then let the devil in hell take my soul! Gelwett said indignantly.
"I believe it!" William finally spoke up.
Freya didn't speak, William was her lord, everything about her, what William believed in, she wouldn't ask why!
Gervit was overjoyed, he looked at William, his eyes were red with emotion, "Lord Zorro, are you going to help me punish that treacherous villain?" ”
"It's not a tricky problem for me! But the problem is, the reward you give doesn't appeal to me! William said to Gelwitt in a calm tone, "You know, Gerwitt, this table has caused enough trouble!" ”
Gervit was stunned, he couldn't turn around for a while, and hesitated for a moment before he showed bitterness and asked William, "Then Lord Zorro, do I have to pay any price?" As long as I have it! ”
In this era, there is no free lunch, even if he learns art under his teacher, he has to pay for the skills of the family.
William asks for payment, which in his opinion is a normal thing!
"What I want, you have!" The corners of William's mouth curled, and he said, "Actually, I'm very interested in this table that can automatically conjure up food!" You know, I'm a guy who is out and about a lot, and having this table is so much more convenient for me! “
"This ......," Gerwitt looked embarrassed.
If he had known that he would end up like this, then he would definitely not do anything to show off in the hotel.
Gervit is now so sorry that his intestines are green, but he can't find regret medicine to take!
William looked at Gelwitt's face cloudy, and he said, "Gelwitt, you also said that your teacher is an enchanter, since your teacher has the ability to make a gourmet table, then he naturally has the ability to make a second gourmet table!" Wouldn't it be nice for you to beg him again, and beg him to give you another table that can automatically conjure up delicious food? ”
Gelwitt suddenly smiled bitterly, the food table is not the fruit of the tree, there is still a stubble after the end!
In fact, the success rate of enchanted items has always been low, and once the enchantment fails, most of the items will be destroyed.
The cost has always been high!
And most items are disposable products that can only be used once or several times.
Enchanted products like gourmet tables that can be used continuously, his teacher has only succeeded in such a case for so many years!
Its birth is not only due to luck, but also to the fact that raw materials account for a large amount.
It's just that luck can be exchanged for a success rate through the number of enchantments, but the magic wood as a raw material is hard to find!
It was only when he was young that he and his two companions got a gold-bronze power linden tree during an adventure.
His teacher and a companion divided the wood of the gold, bronze and lime trees.
Because his teacher made a food table, and another companion made a stick that could automatically hit people.
The leaves of the golden-bronze power linden tree were given to the last companion.
Gelwitt had heard from his teacher that his last companion was good at cultivating magical creatures, and he didn't know what he could do with the leaves of these magical gold-bronze power linden trees.
Gerwait, however, knew that his brother Glivet had come under the door of his teacher's companion.
Jelvit was still hesitating, and William added his chips and said, "Jelvit, I won't take your things for nothing!" ”
"In addition to helping you punish the thief who stole your things and taking a bad breath for you, I will also give you a large sum of money!"
"Five thousand gold coins! What do you think? ”
All this money is left over from William's killing and helping the poor (black eats black) for most of the past six months.
The quick-coming money is dung to William, and there is nothing to be nostalgic about!
Freya's eyes moved, but she didn't say anything.
She respects any decision made by William.
Gerwitt's breathing immediately became heavy.
That's 5,000 gold coins!
You can buy a manor for the money of two!
William said in a tone full of demagogy, "Gervet, think about it, this gourmet table is just a solution for you!" But there are many things in life that cannot be solved by food! However, money is different! ”
"Money buys what you want, all kinds of food, respect from others, approval from your father, and women!"
"You are not young anymore, you should think about the continuation of your family, and these five thousand gold coins can help you do that!"
"I'm a wanderer, and this table is still very useful to me, so I'm willing to pay this money!"
"How do you think about it? Five thousand gold coins, a sulk, or nothing to get, can only flee in disgrace? William asked again.
"I ...... I do! The two outcomes were clear, and Gelwett quickly made a decision, "Lord Zorro, I'm willing to sell you that gourmet table!" I beg you to do justice for me! ”
"A wise decision!" William smiled with satisfaction.
