Section C Chapter 10: The Frozen Bachelor (Lucina)

"It's slow, you two...... It took so much time to tell Mace about the situation in Jiuquan Town. Finally seeing the two of them appear in front of the door, Lucina excitedly knocked on the plate in front of her, which only had a little sauce left: "Look! We're both done." ”

"Cut, I thought you two could wait for us to eat together. Selesa lazily closed the door behind her and sat down next to Lucina and Anusen: "That'...... Where's our food? Isn't it going to be eaten by you even on a plate?"

"W-what about that. Lucina smugly pointed to the two plates that were kept warm on the stove: "Hehe...... Thank me, so you don't have to eat it cold. ”

"That's thoughtful, Lucina. Arousn got up in amazement and went over the plate. However, the mad dog just pretended not to hear, and tilted his neck to drink the liquid from the flask.

This bastard...... Lucina glared at the mad dog dissatisfied: "Someone doesn't want to say something?"

"Someone really wasn't going to say anything. Mad Dog squinted at the plate the knight had placed in front of him, and suddenly asked, "Are all four of us the same food, Lusa? ”

"Huh, you-" Lucina had just started to pick up the conversation, but was immediately interrupted by Seresa, "I didn't ask you. ”

"Breakfast was the same, all cakes. Drinks for self-consumption. Lusha looked a little uncomfortably at the patrol guards passing by the door through the phantom of the glass, and lowered her hood: "The food delivery person specifically said that lunch and dinner are separated...... My sister and I are vegetarian. ”

"That's pretty much it. Mad Dog grinned, looked down and sniffed the cake on the plate, "Yo, it smells sweet, do you?" ”

"You like sweets?" Lucina suddenly came to her senses and raised herself excitedly: "I like it so much!"

"Yes, I was surprised to have a common language with you on this matter. Mad Dog snorted, then tore off a piece of cake, stuffed it into his mouth and chewed: "Hmm...... Not bad. Knight, why don't you eat it?"

Anusen hesitated for a moment before he forked the cake and cut off a small piece of it with a knife and put it in his mouth. After swallowing the cake, the knight's expression is so comical that it even makes Lucina and Mad Dog laugh at the same time.

Putting down the knife, he hurriedly picked up a glass of cold milk beside him and poured it down his neck. Lusa looked at him worriedly, "Are you alright, Anusen?"

"It's okay, it's okay. The knight shook his head helplessly: "I just can't get used to it...... Something sweet. ”

"Huh, as a Templar Knight, you can't eat sweet?" Seresa triumphantly ate a piece of cake again, "You really impress me, knight." ”

"How can you eat something so sweet?" said Anusen, who struggled to cut another piece of cake and put it in his mouth, his expression twisting in pain, but he swallowed it anyway.

"It's not a bitter medicine, why do you feel so sad about it. Lucina looked at the sad knight in bewilderment: "No, uncle, is it that sweet?" Considering that you two have to eat it too, I deliberately put more than half of the sugar in the morning when I baked the cake. ”

"One, more than half ......" the knight opened his mouth and did not speak for a long time.

"You baked this cake?" Selesa tore off another piece of cake and threw it into her mouth in surprise, "I have to say, you are good at it." ”

"Of course!" Lucina patted her chest triumphantly, "It's just a no-brainer, isn't it? If I hadn't found cocoa powder in the kitchen, I'd have baked Lusa's favorite chocolate cake." ”

"Remember to put more sugar next time. This little sweetness is not enough to see. Seresa tapped the plate with satisfaction: "Come on, since we are all like-minded people with sweet tooths, let's shake hands." ”

"yes, yes, the four of us should just call it the Sweets Legion!" Lucina got up excitedly and shook hands with Mad Dog. My sister's hand followed closely behind and reached out.

"You see, knight - that's it. Ceresya's mouth snorted: "There are four people in our Sweet Tooth Army, and you can't eat sweets." How bad is that?"

"What's the name? The knight vetoed.

"I didn't say it was really called that, but you have to try to get used to sweets. The mad dog tapped the porcelain plate with a fork and said pleasantly, "Otherwise, we won't be able to eat together?" ”

"Well, everyone's taste is different, so you don't have to force it. Lucina disagreed with Cereya.

The knight looked at the cake on the plate with a sad face, and the expression on his face was like a great enemy.

"Don't force yourself to eat, do you?" Lucina looked at Anusen with some sympathy, "If you can't eat, just give it to meβ€”and then I'll go to the kitchen and bring you something else to eat." ”

"Then you can help me solve the trouble. The knight sighed and pushed the cake in front of Lucina: "But I'll go to the kitchen myself." ”

"But you don't know the way, do you? I must have been to the kitchen of the four. Lucina stood up and looked at Lusa, who was teasing the group: "Lusa, sister is leaving for a while." You're going to have to keep an eye on the cake for me. ”

After she nodded in reply, Lucina walked briskly out the door.

Walking from the fourth floor to the first floor in one breath, Aiya slowly walked straight to the direction where the kitchen was. As she passed around the corner, she was pleasantly surprised to see that Bachelor Nadia was hurrying out of the kitchen and briskly towards the end of the hallway.

Looks like the bachelor is finally willing to leave the room...... Lucina was relieved to think that she hadn't eaten all day yesterday, and she was definitely hungry enough to run out to get something to eat.

"Maester Nadia!" Lucina beckoned to him happily. The latter, however, walked away as if he hadn't heard, with his back to her.

Why don't you ignore me?" Aiya looked at the bachelor who disappeared around the corner depressedly: Sure enough, that incident hit him too hard, and he couldn't accept it for a while, so he didn't want to pay attention to people?

Walking into the empty kitchen, Lucina picked up a plate from the cupboard and held it in her hand. Then, he picked a large piece of bread and two pieces of cheese, put them on a plate, and carried them out of the room and returned the way he came.

As she returned to the western hallway on the fourth floor, Lucina was surprised to find a large group of guards gathered in front of a room. Eders kept yelling, "Don't go near the room! How many more times do you want me to say it!?"

Approaching Captain Edus, Lucina asked curiously, "What's going on?"

"Oh, it's Miss Lucina. Edus's tone was unusually sad: "Bachelor he...... He's dead. ”

"What?" Lucina was stunned and almost dropped her plate on the ground, "Impossible!"

"Look. Eders sighed heavily and pointed to the wide open door, "Everyone, give way to our Miss Aya." ”

The crowd made a cut, and Lucina rushed to the front. The scene in front of her only made her mind feel blank.

The Bachelor was frozen in smoking black ice. His expression was terrified, like a corpse in the passage.
