Lena Donawan's Diary:

It's been more than ten days since Dad went to war, and to be honest, I miss him a little.

For the first few days, Aiji and Josh were happy - because they didn't have to hear their dad's noise and nagging anymore.

Gradually, however, the smile on Josh's face faded. Mom hasn't been paying much attention to us lately, so we're playing with Elena and Sunderland.

Josh was a big fool, and he didn't feel anything strange about his mother at all. Recently, he has been following Anthony's brother as a 'little sideman', and although Anthony has made it clear that he doesn't need to, he still pesters him - of course, in fact, Anthony's big brother also acquiesced.

I used to discuss my mom with Aiji, and I was a little worried about my mother, but Aiji said that my mother was just worried about my father. Just wait for Dad to come back. Aiji asked me not to bother my mother, and not to mention my father's affairs in front of her. I thought what Aiji said made sense, so I just did it.

Mom seems to miss her dad too much for the past two days, she doesn't sleep late at night to rest - sitting alone in a chair and not knowing what she is doing, I look like I'm in a daze.

Josh told me that Mom was also a spellcaster, so he thought Mom was 'meditating'. I didn't know what 'meditation' was anyway, and Josh obviously wanted to show me how to show it, but he ended up dozing off himself—it reminded me of Dad, Josh was a lot like Dad.

So, I didn't want to explore what 'meditation' was, and although I wanted to be a spell caster, my mother said I was too young to practice writing and arithmetic. In order not to worry my mother, I had to practice reading and numeracy every day.

But I'm not convinced, Josh is just a little older than me — less than two years older than me, to be exact. But Dad obviously liked Josh more, so he taught him how to cast spells.

Mom seemed to want me to be a hugger instead of a witch, and she probably thought I wasn't very talented in witches, but what Mom and Dad didn't know was that I had been able to control mana for a long time, but I never showed it.

Josh, the big fool, used to show off his mana practice like me, in fact, I listened carefully to every time Mom and Dad gave us lessons, and when Josh showed me a trick, I learned it a few days ago when he was still practicing.

Alas, what Aiji said is really right, men, they are all inexplicably good-looking and like to show strength. I decided that the next time Josh would use magic to blow my hair and skirt, I would fight back with magic - just freeze his shoes on the ground.

"Oh! What a funny little man! Bolt said, pointing to a dwarf actor in the burlesque that had just ended. The performances of the actors are really wonderful, and I think today's burlesque 'Short Knight vs. Fire Dragon' should be the most outstanding burlesque performance in the Eagle's Nest! ”

As Bolt spoke, the burlesque performers bowed to the audience, and Old Lady Greon took the lead in sprinkling a handful of silver wolves, and then the people in the inner circle followed suit, except for General Babud's disgruntled 'hum', indifferent, and his voice was so small that only he could hear it.

The dwarf actor who plays the role of the main knight takes off his hat and helmet props, runs back and forth in a comical posture, picks up the reward that has fallen on the ground, and makes a funny 'tsk' sound in his mouth, which causes many of the audience to laugh again. Even Pete couldn't help but 'poof' a little fun, however, after Caudore coughed dissatisfiedly, Pete immediately put away his smile and pretended to be serious, nothing had happened, which made Camille and Anna laugh.

Anna sprinkled a handful of copper and quipped to Kodore, "Mr. McLagan, don't be so serious! Let's just relax tonight, and voila, the actors' performances are really interesting. I know you're a non-smiling person, but you can't sew your mouth with a needle and thread and zip someone else's mouth during this kind of celebration, right? ”

Camille laughed even more when she heard Anna's teasing of Caudore. Caudore wasn't embarrassed, just pouted, rolled his eyes, and sat down, acquiescing to what Anna said. Gonzalez laughed silently when he saw Codore's move—his muscles twitched all over his body, but he didn't make a sound, which saved Codore's last face.

With the actors leaving, Bolt ordered the scene to be cleaned up. Cooks and servants then carry a variety of dishes, ingredients and cooking utensils into the center of the arena and gather around the Victory Bonfire, ready to start cooking the delicious meals.

At the same time, in the outer ring, several smaller campfires were cooking. However, unlike the inner circle, there are only a few cauldrons next to the campfire, where beans are boiled, and food is distributed by a dedicated person, and each participant is given a bowl of boiled beans and a piece of coarse bread.

The Middle Circle, on the other hand, brings their own food and spices, cooks their own food, and occasionally exchanges cooked food – a social activity and way to strengthen friendships and make new friends.

But when it comes to a truly sumptuous dinner, it still belongs to the inner circle of small people. Seats have been arranged in the inner circle, and people salute and take their seats in order of seating. The group of Zamir Ling were placed in the front of the middle seat, not in the most distinguished seat, but still received a higher standard of treatment.

The nobles in the circle did not need to cook the food themselves, after the chef had cooked the food, it would be taken by the servants or attendants of these nobles according to the needs of the master, and served on the seats. Therefore, these idle people began to talk in twos and threes, and a small number of people left the table to toast everyone.

The Zamir Leader and the others were led by Bolt, and they met and made a formal presentation to the nobles and ministers of the Griffon Lord, which took about three quarters of an hour.

"Mrs. Wolfe, Mr. McLagan, Miss Sindra, please try this potato and corn soup." Usain Bolt personally handed food to several people. Kodore nodded solemnly, picked up the spoon and tasted it, then put it down, expressionless and flat: "Very good food, Mr. Burns." ”

"Is that what you mean by deliciousness? Mr. Pence? I felt as if I could smell a mellow aroma in the rising heat, and I must taste it. Anna eagerly picked up the spoon, scooped up a spoonful of soup, and put it whole in her mouth.

"What do you think? Madam? Bolt asked, his tone not at all urgent, but one could hear a strong sense of pride.

"It's delicious, Mr. Pence, and I have to say, it's really delicious!" Anna exclaimed. Caudore was still on his staple, and he had finished his soup and was ready to enjoy his next meal. Camille is not a fan of potatoes, but the rich corn juice in this soup blends well with the flavor of the potatoes, so she treats the soup as if it were normal.

"Lady Wolf, then, I would like to ask you, have you ever eaten so delicious in Zandmir?" Bolt's words are very insidious.

How could Anna not hear Bolt's words, she said with grace: "Sir, this is really the most delicious soup I have ever tasted, and to tell you the truth, the soup of Zhammir is far less than this one." ”

Bolt was about to say something triumphantly, but his next words were pressed into Anna's stomach. "However, the soup is a good soup, and I think the main food and dessert are a little bit worse. If you have the opportunity to visit Zammirling, Mr. Pence, you should definitely try Zammirling's special lemon pork kidneys pie, which is the most delicious food. After all, as a soup, isn't it a bit of a noise compared to the staple food? ”

Bolt barely managed to squeeze a smile out of his lips, which he did whenever he was refuted by someone else - an old habit of his. He decided to avoid the topic and said, "Well, please try our staple food and compare it later... ”

"So, I'll see?" Anna smiled awkwardly but politely. It's just that the smile is so glaring in Bolt's eyes.
