Shower Chapter 32: Returning Home (1)
The Avenger's Secret Letter:
Dear Vajalon, that fool of Gegit has become clever this time, he only stationed troops in the pass of the Terror Mountains, but did not carry out a surprise attack on the Zamir territory. Slava, the Duke of Running Wolf, was well-organized, sending additional troops to the border when the Ice Circle was in effect - Slava had two tricky advisors around him, one was the butler Jorgen, and the other was a wizard named Michael. Our ice circle has been destroyed, and the plan has failed.
Recently, the Orzhov Chamber of Commerce has suddenly intensified its activities in the Tangenness Territory, and I suspect that they may want to take revenge on Gegit for the extermination of the Dundees. The agitation we hatched in the Targnis was also unsuccessful, and the villain of the villains Prapi Bolton took the lead in suppressing the riots, and more than 400 people were slaughtered. All is not going well, my dear. I've been a little irritable lately, and I'm worried about whether our revenge is going the right way.
What am I going to do? Vaillon.

The Avenger's Secret Letter:
Mary, my eternal love. Revenge corrupts me like a sweet poison of love. You have done a good job, do not waver in our cause, my love. I will always be your solid backing and support. You don't need to question or hesitate. The freedom that the dark elves crave will surely be realized in your hands and mine, and we have the future of our race on our shoulders.
Things are not going well with you, and I understand your anxiety and confusion. But let me have good news. One of the mages of the Council of the Seven Rings has been killed by me and blamed the Azorius Empire, Queen Ahmad has also been poisoned by me and successfully blamed the Holy Falcon Empire royalty, I used 'Seeing Blood to Seal My Throat', you know, only the Holy Falcon Empire Royal Assassin has this poison - I stole it, of course, the hapless assassin will never have a chance to find his stolen poison now, because I sent an Ahmad wizard to kill him and throw him at the gates of Falkenridge.
Elsa's pattern has been disrupted by me, and our chance has come. The failures of two hundred years ago must not be repeated, and now I will give you two tasks again:
First, find the singing gem of the incarnation of the traitor mage Fahda and her lover of the lamp god Hashefa, we can use it in the future, this is a very important prop, Fahda has seen the 'Elsa Truth', she can have a long life, find her! Bring me the Singing Gems!
Second, our Blade of Erepos has managed to break into the Council of Shadows, and we have obtained some angels to send to Gagette, in the name of the Blade of Erepos. With these evil creatures, Gage will know how to use them. I've already written the script, and I'll send him three more pit worms. I want both the executioner and the wolf to lose.

"Michael! I'd love to have two more drinks with you! Slava laughed uncontrollably.
Michael wouldn't have done that, and with his shrewdness, he had already spotted Yogan's serious expression and Lena's displeasure. So he put down his glass and coughed twice to remind Slava.
Fortunately, Slava is not a stupid person, so he quickly finished the wine in the glass, pretended to be serious, and said: "Well, but I still have a lot of aftermath to deal with, and now that the temperature has risen, you and Lena and the children haven't seen each other for a long time, it's time to go back!" β
Lena was a little tired of living in Fort Longtalon, although the castle was very comfortable and Slava was very entertaining, but this was not her own house after all, and there was always a sense of rustiness after living in it for a long time. So she saluted Slava and took Michael's arm around him, apparently 'We're not going to bother, or rather, the dead!' Hurry home with me. βγ Michael understood, but he had to say two more words: "Slava, Jinx... β
Slava was sometimes annoyed with the wizarding brother's chatter, so he immediately interrupted him: "That lad Jinx is doing well, I'll arrange for Jon to cut off his swallowtail." And the eyes motioned for Lena to hurry up and take him away.
Lena said goodbye to Slava and dragged Michael towards the door of the lord's office. Michael had no choice but to smile and set out on the journey home with his wife and children.
"Honey." Michael called Lena's name.
"Huh?"
"We've got to go to Flower Town first, I promised to bring some wolf blood wine to that old fellow at Trist, don't worry, I'll be back with a few pieces of flower honey cake, and we need to buy some beans and onions, won't we?" Michael suggested.
Lena is suspicious of her husband's motives, thinking that he might just want to go to old Trist for a drink. But she didn't want to be too embarrassed for her husband, 'maybe she should save Mike some face,' she thought. Therefore, she didn't say anything, so she had to agree.
"Well, I'm going to buy some fabric and leathers, and Aiji and Lena are growing so fast that it's time to make new dresses." Lena followed Michael's words and saved her husband's face, but in fact, the husband and wife tacitly agreed.
Michael's heart was overjoyed, but he was afraid that his wife would be dissatisfied, so he approached his wife and scratched her earlobe. Whispered, "My young ladyβmy dear." Remember that tailor shop in Flower Town? Actually, I went to see it secretly last time I went. The shop spun several new reels of gold and green thread, as well as purple fabric. The fabric is so soft, I'll buy it back, and you can make a new dress. What do you think? β
"Oh my God! Forget it, Mike! Gold thread is very expensive, and a shaft costs half a silver wolf! Lena was a little tempted, but she was too expensive, and she wanted to save up some extra money to buy a carriage and some books for the children to read.
"Honestly, Slava secretly stuffed me with a bag of silver wolves before you and Jorgen came in, and I counted more than 70 of them." Michael patted the inside of his robe, and the silver coins collided with a crisp sound.
Lena was so intoxicated by the sound that she said cheerfully, "This is the most reliable thing Slava has ever done!" Mike! β
"Hey, hey! I'll tell you, that's not even counting this quarter's salary! So, we bought the purple fabric back as well. I swear to God! The fabric is like satin, it's only for you. With that, Michael kissed his wife lightly on the cheek.
"Go! Sweet talk. I'm going to ask for your shame - bring the money bag! I'm going to get these things! β
"As you wish, my lady."
