Chapter 36: Unspeakable Thanks
Well, that's a serious question.
According to common sense, unless it is a one-sided self-inflicted affair, the declaration of friendship should be mutual, and the gods of both sides should send an oracle to their own priests, and then the priests will inform the lower believers, which is already a fixed process.
But now, Shul and Lisa didn't receive the oracle from Lord Luna, and they were fortunate to have met these Lint people, otherwise they still don't know about it. Why didn't Lord Darkmoon send down an oracle? Could it be......
Could it be that she didn't respond to the voices of other gods at all like she had done for thousands of years, and hid in the dark moon to observe the mortal world? Hey, are you really good like this? There must be a limit if you don't go out, there has been no movement for more than a thousand years, and even many gods are about to forget your existence, let alone mortals. Even if you don't want to reach out to those gods, you have to respond to them.
But thinking about it on the other hand, there are a total of four priests, and it seems that there is no need to send down the oracle in advance, tsk, four, it's really pitiful.
At this moment, Shuer frantically made blasphemous remarks in his heart, if it was a haughty and strict god, he would have been punished by the gods countless times.
Fortunately, from nowhere, a few pieces of gravel were dropped, which was considered to interrupt his belly, and Shuer coughed dryly and secretly stabbed Lisa.
"Ah, by the way, my lord has made the same promise. "Honesty? it doesn't exist, there is no such word in Lisa's dictionary, my brother said, to hell with honesty or something," all the servants of the lakes and rivers are the brothers and sisters of the Darkmoon cultists. ”
"So, Your Excellency the Archbishop, it's my responsibility to do my best to entertain the Apostle of the Darkmoon I meet, after all, it's the only thing I can do. ”
Shul nodded secretly, no wonder Count Merck was so attentive. Although the people of the Kingdom of Lint are known for their hospitality, after all, this is a dangerous wilderness, and they have just experienced a strange ghost space incident, no matter how hospitable they are, it is difficult to entertain a group of strangers with such warmth as him. Shul had been a little skeptical from the beginning, and it was only now that he had found the answer.
"Your Excellency, and Captain Leinster. Knowing that Lisa was not too good at dealing with such social situations, Shul raised his glass and raised his glass to Merck, "The Holy See is too young to drink, so I will give you a glass on behalf of the Holy See, and thank you for keeping us safe." ”
"Huh?" Count Merck was stunned. Xiuer changed the topic, he was mentally prepared, this kind of thing is enough to communicate with each other, a few simple polite words are enough, there is no need to chase after it, now everyone is really interested in what happened not long ago, that is the key topic of the banquet. The problem is that Lord Earl never thought that he was just an ordinary person, and the other party was a powerful warrior, but he actually said that he had protected them.
"Hehe, I don't think you two understand it yet, but as a recipient, I must admit that this time you can return safely from the ghost space, and it is inseparable from your decision. ”
Knowing that everyone's panic and fear were gradually subsiding, and that their hearts were already occupied by curiosity, Shul simply put down his glass and stood in front of more than a hundred people and talked eloquently.
"As I said just now, the strange phenomenon we encountered is the legendary ghost space, as for what the ghost space is, if you don't know, you will go back and investigate it carefully. ”
"The ghost space is very dangerous, most of the victims who fall into it are lost in it, I don't know what will happen to them in the end, but I know that they will never come back, and we can return safely, which is extremely lucky. ”
"I'm certainly not a scholar of ghost space, but I have some guesses based on personal experience. I certainly don't know the cause of it, but it should be a mirror space based on the real world, perfectly replicating the real world at a certain moment, and between the two worlds, with a certain object as the medium to connect to each other, uh, the ghost space that erupts every time, the medium is probably not the same, and there is no reference value between each other. ”
"If you want to escape from the ghost space, you must change the state of the medium, and at the moment when the medium is about to change, the life forms within the area of influence break the boundary between the two worlds and can return smoothly. ”
"What the medium is, no one knew before, but now, it should be one of those toys, it is the behavior of three young people looking for toys, breaking the barrier between the two worlds, it can be said that if it is not for their unintentional behavior, everyone may not be able to find this medium in a lifetime. ”
"So, I hope that the parents will not criticize them, they saved everyone and should be rewarded. ”
This is not true, and even if the children don't find the toys and finally tidy up the camp and get there, they are likely to touch the medium. However, putting the credit on the children made the children's parents, especially Count Merck, have a little more joy on their faces.
"However, who stuck the spinning top into the soil in the first place so that it wouldn't fall down, stand up for me, I promise not to kill you, you need to learn how to play with the spinning top. ”
"Hahahaha. The crowd erupted in laughter, and it was clear that Shuer's previous small mistake had spread among the three forces.
"Hmph. Shule pretended to be angry, just to liven up the renewed tension, and of course he wouldn't really get to know a few children. And those who witnessed it all knew in their hearts that although the target was wrong, his idea of repeating the behavior of the four of them was correct, even if the medium was not a spinning top, as long as he took a few more minutes to try everything in the tent, he would be able to find the medium sooner or later, not to mention, it was not certain whether the medium was a spinning top or not.
"Of course, the real thanks to you, no, everyone in the caravan, is that you have maintained the environment around the medium from beginning to end, and have not changed anything, at least not removed the medium, intentionally or unintentionally, it was your decision that saved us. ”
"You are all believers in water, friends of the Darkmoon Temple, therefore, what should be said must be made clear, on behalf of all of the Darkmoon Temple, I would like to express my gratitude to all of you, the Darkmoon Temple will not forget your help, and when you are in need, the Darkmoon Temple will definitely do its best to help. ”
In fact, it is equivalent to not saying that the mutual aid relationship that has just been established originally included Xiuer's promise, and it is only to make the face more beautiful, and it does not need to be actually paid. However, no one who can hear it will recklessly say it, and maintain the harmonious atmosphere of the banquet, which is the best result.
"In addition, it is Lady Marlene and the three knights of Core, Thorn, and Wind Wolf......"
Brother has a lot to say today, Lisa is secretly worried. Although it is the least polite to express gratitude to the people who have helped you, my brother usually doesn't say so much, and there must be a deep-seated reason for his abnormal behavior, and my brother is ...... Restless?
The girl's gaze secretly patrolled over Shuer, well, it's really uneasy, my brother's uneasiness has always been because of me, why is it this time?
"Because this guy is used to being in control, this ghost space incident, everything is out of his control, he has been passive, and it was all luck to leave alive in the end. As soon as the girl turned around, she found that Duck was already sitting beside her at some point, fiddling with the roses with his fingers, looking elsewhere, as if he was not talking to her, "He is not upset, but blaming himself, I have known him for more than two years, and it is the first time I have seen him so embarrassed, tsk, deserved, who let him stand in my way in my pursuit of love." ”
"Embarrassed?" Lisa didn't ask how Duck saw her thoughts, none of her brother's friends were stupid, and several of them were used to seeing the sinister perverts of people's hearts, and with their experience, it was normal for them to be able to see through their own thoughts. So, the girl completely ignored Duck's nonsense, "I don't think when my brother was embarrassed, he was as reliable as before, and all the problems were solved?"
"That's because he hid it so well, especially in front of you, that you didn't see it. But this idiot knows in his heart that every decision he makes is right, but the right is based on irreproducible coincidences, not experience and analysis, hehe, you can't guess how many times in the past two days we have faced the end of being lost in the ghost space forever. ”
Duck pursed his lips and hesitated for a moment before continuing, "However, this guy is so stupid that he completely forgot that it was he who finally judged the truth in time and found the best way to deal with it, so that we can come back alive." ”
"Ha, I see. Lisa clapped her hands, "You are telling me this, not so much to solve my doubts, but to let me pass on the word to my brother on your behalf, you are embarrassed to talk to your brother in person, and even more embarrassed to thank you directly, so you want to relay it through my mouth." ”
"Hey, I didn't, I was just laughing at him. Duck sneered disdainfully, "It's your bastard brother who is really embarrassed to thank you directly, you see that he pulled Marlene and the four of them to talk for a long time, in fact, he just wanted to express his gratitude." The guy felt that it was all due to the four of them who had escaped by mistake, plus in order to take care of my emotions, so he wanted to say thank you but was embarrassed. ”
"You really don't?" Lisa said with an innocent look on her face, "Then you don't have to talk to me about that." ”
"Of course, it's to hit his position in your heart, so that I can take advantage of it. Beautiful little lady, please accept my loving roses. ”
"Brother, there's a pervert here who is teasing me. ”
"Hah, in the name of the Lord, judgment without light. Regardless of the reason, there was an offensive magic spell head-on, and the mace followed, "Give me a million deaths, beast." ”
"Hey, two guys who are not frank, let's fight slowly. The Great Demon King Lisa snickered, "However, is my brother's mood really okay?"
