Chapter 45: A Strange Feast
A huge dragon head crouched on the ground, an unknown sword stuck on top of it, and a seat made of gold at the dragon's mouth, with the huge petrified dragon body in the background. This is the heart of the Black Dragon Empire, and now a huge banquet table is set up in the middle of this hall with a makeshift square table.
Although the whole hall was not dark under the light of several mine mules, for a bit of ritual, a candlestick was lit in every other area of the table. On the right side of the table stood a row of heavily armored knights dressed in a shiny metallic sheen, and on the left side of the table were four intact mine mules, which were additionally equipped with protective equipment, and their huge forefeet stood side by side and shrank their bodies to look like huge steel walls. The overhead lights shine a non-dazzling and even reassuring orange-yellow,
A robot that was already taller than the group of heavy equipment was actually a head taller, with a towel in his left hand and a dinner plate in his right hand, constantly replacing used bone plates around the table. A group of maids tried to get as far away from the robot as they quickly set the table.
Moments later.......
The narrator sat on the chair and looked at the second prince in the second seat opposite, Natiri and a group of maids sat on the left, and a group of staff officers of the second prince on the right. This is the main hall of the palace originally used to govern national affairs, and now it is the only place that can shelter the heavy rain outdoors under the catapult baptism of the second prince. The table was piled with the best food both sides could come up with.
Narrator Jun only symbolically drank the jade foot brew brought by the second prince. The second prince is silently cutting the best steak produced in the Dana breeding area. The maids on the left have been washed and dressed, and they are feasting without scruples. And a kind of staff officer on the right is swallowing saliva and not daring to move.
A day ago, just when Natiri ran out of ammunition and was preparing for hand-to-hand combat, Narrator's landing craft arrived, with the great heat of friction with the atmosphere, with the assistance of Dana, the landing craft fell sharply in front of the second prince's military formation, both the soldiers and the second prince were stunned by the steel that fell from the sky.
The miraculous landing craft was suspended in mid-air not far away. In the eyes of this group of savages, it was like incomprehensible magic, and the huge air jets from the two quadruple engines mounted on the flanks caused the heavy shield warriors in the front row to crouch on the ground holding on to their wooden stakes. The roar of the engine is as terrifying as the siren snake demon that plagues the villagers every year during the typhoon season on the coast of the Empire.
In order to take a stand, the landing craft easily destroyed the catapult that the second prince had spent a long time buying and building before logging in. Each of these catapults is the brainchild of the second prince. Then the huge iron pipe hanging in front of the landing craft was aimed at the second prince, and no matter how the second prince hid, this iron pipe would move to his position.
For the first time, he felt that death was so close to him, and the second prince knew the power of this thing, and the second prince did not have the confidence to say that his body was harder than the catapult made of hundred-year-old pine wood. The second prince knew that he had failed, and Natiri's backer had arrived. And he was even more surprised when he saw Natiri and the maids come out.
The people who slaughtered his entire three phalanx soldiers turned out to be the number that could be counted on two hands, and they were all weak and wounded. The second prince had his envoys raise the mongoose flag that the representative asked for negotiations.
And then there was this one. Looking at this extremely extravagant steak, all the second prince could identify was black pepper, and compared to what he took out, the second prince suddenly found that the muscles he originally planned to show were nothing in the eyes of the other side. What a thousand feet of wine, is nothing more than a process of using virgins to crush grapes for fermentation.
And I still use this thing as a treasure. Look at the ceramic bottle that you handed over to you what you thought was gorgeous, and then look at the glass cups used to hold water on the other side that were more transparent than ice cubes. The only thing he could outperform the other side might be these silver cutlery bought from the Evelyn clan.
"Sally, please help me get the chocolate over there~!"
"Is this chocolate? Is it really delicious to be pitch black? ”
It was the head maid who spoke. Her name is Billy von Stein. The family used to be a loyal knight of the Black Dragon Empire, but due to a business mistake in the grandfather's generation, the family declined, and as the eldest daughter in the family, she voluntarily joined the palace. A personal maid known as Natiri.
It's the exact opposite of the chattering and interest of the maids here. The group of big men across the table were beautifully dressed, but they never imagined that they, as nobles, would dine at the same table as a group of untouchables. But looking at the four mine mules that had been repainted in the makeup of the Dana ship next to them and the steel puppets cruising around next to them, this group of nobles really didn't dare to breathe.
"What's wrong? Is the food I prepared not to your liking? ”
The narrator gently shook the purple-red liquid in the goblet. Although his body can easily filter this level of alcohol, he still allows himself to form a slightly drunk state, alcohol can effectively stimulate blood circulation, and accelerated blood circulation can make the brain get more adequate oxygen. Narrator Jun didn't want to quarrel with the next successor of the Black Dragon Empire.
It was easy to make these tables of nobles corpses, and the fact that they were sheep and the narrator was a wolf had already been decided when they raised the negotiating flag. However, considering the wishes of his first collaborator and for the future development of the Dana, Narrator-kun still let them go, so there is the current scene.
"Second prince, is this appropriate?"
"Yes, eating and drinking enough to talk about business at the dinner table, isn't it what you businessmen are best at?"
"This...."
"Humph!"
Listening to the words of the second prince, a very sturdy nobleman slapped the table heavily, and the nobles sitting next to him were startled. Then I saw him grab a leg of mutton in front of him and bite it hard, unexpectedly this leg of mutton was much more delicious than he thought. The leg of lamb is boiled in water, then sprinkled with various spices and grilled over charcoal until golden brown.
The businessman, who started as a spice merchant, immediately recognized the spices used. There are many kinds of spices that even the second prince can't obtain. Cloves, cinnamon. After taking a bite, the sturdy merchant immediately looked at the narrator, who was eating a snack with great interest. If, according to his words, it is better to do business with him than to kill them all. The opportunity for spices in this leg of lamb alone is enough to drive these people crazy.
"Hmm~ It's delicious. It's a pity I didn't bring my daughter. This kind of food is no longer affordable in a small country like ours. ”
The strong merchant ate the leg of mutton in shock, and said lightly at the same time.
"Oh, what if you cooperate with me, everyone in this country can afford to consume this kind of food in the future?"
"It can't be!"
Narrator's words caused the surprise of the second prince and the surrounding nobles. The second prince, who found that he was rude, sat back on his own actions, coughed awkwardly, and then said in formal words again:
"Your Excellency not only spared us, but also entertained us with great luxury, if it is according to your words, then we will definitely follow this business."
Narrator looked at the second prince lightly, raised his head slightly, and motioned for the second prince to continue.
"But at what cost to our country?"
"Well, I've always been fair..."
