Chapter 147: An Invitation to the Celebration Banquet

The arrival of the two groups of people gave Zhou Yao a double surprise.

For Illya, it was a surprise that they came over so quickly.

Obviously, the guild's civil strife has just ended, and it is the busiest time.

As for Mei Lian, I didn't expect him to come.

No, more precisely, don't want him to come over.

"I'm sorry to come here without saying hello."

"Hello!"

The previous sentence was Illya, she formally bowed to Zhou Yao and said very politely.

The latter sentence is Mrs. Ellie, with a cheerful smile on her somewhat pale face, and there is no indication that she was almost a living sacrifice yesterday.

Isn't that the attitude the other way around?

If it weren't for the fact that the difference in size was too obvious, Zhou Yao would have thought that Illya was the older one.

"Oh, it's fine. Since you're here, let's sit down. ”

Zhou Yao waved his hand absently, then looked at the other visitor, and put on a stinky face.

"What are you doing here?"

"Why can't I come?"

"What are you doing here?"

"Can't you come if you're fine?"

The Q&A like kicking a ball couldn't help but make Zhou Yao a little crazy.

That's why he didn't want to see Mei Lian, and his originally good mood was immediately disturbed by him.

"If you want to find Erquit, go out and turn left until you turn right. The second stay took him down the road. ”

Not wanting to talk nonsense with Mei Lian here, he motioned to the second stay, who was already in the living room, to take Mei Lian to find Elquit.

"If I didn't say it earlier, I wouldn't have to talk nonsense with you."

Mei Lian snorted lightly and turned around and walked out of the living room, so angry that Zhou Yao's brows twitched.

After he left, Zhou Yao led Lei Ruxue to sit opposite Illya.

Sakiya stood behind Zhou Yao with Serra and Lijielit looking at each other.

"Done with the guild?"

After sitting down, Zhou Yao took the lead in initiating the topic.

"No, it's going to take a few more days. I'm going to come here today, mainly because of my mother's meaning. ”

Shaking her head to answer Zhou Yao's question, Illya glanced at someone beside her a little helplessly.

"A life-saving grace. You have to come to your door in person to thank you. ”

Still smiling, Mrs. Ellie took her daughter's words.

"But there's no need to be in such a hurry, obviously I still have a lot of things to do today."

Mrs. Ellie's words made Illya grumble in a whisper.

Mrs. Ellie, who was then heard, clung to her and rubbed her head vigorously.

"Don't say that, little Elija~"

While kissing the skin, Mrs. Ellie said coquettishly.

Suddenly, Illya's little face was dyed red with a "bang". Shyly struggled for a moment and soon gave up.

Wow, this scene always feels like a sense of immediacy.

I'm sure Elquit would have had a lot in common with Mrs. Ellie.

"Is your body okay?"

With a fake cough, Zhou Yao asked as he shifted the subject.

"It's fine."

"It's fine!"

"Mother, please be serious!"

"Hey~ Why, little Illya is so ruthless."

The above conversation rang in his ears, and what appeared in front of Zhou Yao's eyes was a picture of a mother and daughter "exchanging feelings".

Compare the tsundere daughter, and the mother who is not serious.

"It's nice to be so intimate."

Lei Ruxue, who was sitting next to Zhou Yao, felt it and muttered to herself with envy.

She has lived with Uncle Lei since she was a child. The only memory of my mother's existence is that exists in my mind today.

Now seeing the close interaction between Mrs. Ellie and Illya, she can't help but feel envy and longing.

understood her inner thoughts, but Zhou Yao didn't know what to say, so he had to touch her head again.

"Ah, this one next to you is Xiao Ruxue, right?"

Away from Illya, Mrs. Ellie turned her attention to Lei Ruxue again.

"Huh! Ah, I'm Lei Ruxue. ”

didn't expect that she would be named, Lei Ruxue was taken aback and quickly nodded in response.

"Don't be so nervous. I'm not a vicious old witch~ You were also my benefactor, when I was captured by Miranda. Only you stand up and stop it. Thank you very much, I hug~"

Mrs. Ellie threw herself to Lei Ruxue's side, hugged her, and once again performed the Dafa of rubbing her cheeks.

"No, I, I didn't help you, and in the end I let that bad woman get away with it."

Being also blushed by Mrs. Ellie, Lei Ruxue shook her head and said.

"Mother. Please be serious, I'm going to get down to business. ”

Illya, who couldn't watch from the sidelines, reminded Lei Ruxue, who was a little overwhelmed, from Mrs. Ellie's clutches.

"Cut~ I know."

Puffing out her cheeks in disgruntled displeasure, Mrs. Ellie obediently returned to her seat.

"Please use tea."

Sakuya didn't know when she had already made tea, and brought a tea set to pour steaming black tea for everyone in the room.

"Thank you~"

Mrs. Ellie took her tea and tasted it. Leave time to Illya and Zhou Yao.

"I'm here for three things."

Back to the point, Illya also adjusted back to her state and said.

"Three things?"

Zhou Yao was very surprised. What else is there to say thank you for?

"Well, the first thing is to thank you for this incident, and I will keep this immeasurable favor in my heart."

Illya said solemnly.

Zhou Yao opened his mouth to say something, but suddenly remembered what Titia had said before, and then closed his mouth and nodded.

Titia said, "Since someone has come to thank you, then you should accept it readily, which is a sign of respect for both parties." ”

"The second thing is about the Heroic Spirit......

Illya hesitated a little at the mention of this, and looked at Zhou Yao's reaction as she spoke.

"Ah, that's what you mean."

Zhou Yao suddenly realized, and Gu Xian Yeli reached out and touched the storage space, and then took out a few crystal balls.

There are five in total, one is Warner's, and the other four are Ruger's.

Originally, Zhou Yao forgot about the Heroic Spirit Armament, but when he left Ain City to meet with Elquit, he remembered when he saw the crystal ball handed over by Elquit, so he threw it into the Yakasa space.

Now that Illya had brought it up, he didn't hesitate to take out all of the Heroic Spirits.

"All five in your hands?! Thank you so much! ”

Seeing the five crystal balls, Illya was overjoyed and hurriedly thanked Zhou Yao again.

"It's just that things are returned to their original owners." Zhou Yao smiled and said.

"And what about one more thing?" Then he asked.

"Ah, it's a celebration feast."

Quickly putting away her emotions, Illya took a red invitation from Serra and handed it to Zhou Yao.

"Celebration Banquet, ......"

casually flipped through the invitation card, and Zhou Yao read it.

The venue is a high school venue in Chuo Province.

The time is seven days later.

Hosted by the Einzberen family and the Tosaka family.

A celebration feast was held to celebrate the successful end of the guild's civil strife.

That's basically all there is to it.

"Well, I'll go. By the way, who are the invitees? ”

Zhou Yao closed the invitation and handed it to Sakuya, turned to Illya and asked.

"The officials of the guild, as well as the connections of the other two families, as well as some relatives and friends invited by our family and the Tosaka family. Celebration is secondary, mainly to show the outside world that 'the guild has not declined'. ”

Listening to Illya's words, Zhou Yao nodded.

The two talked for a while, and then Elijah took Mrs. Ellie away. (To be continued.) )
