Chapter Twenty-Four: Jewels

Leaving the large villa, Tarrant walked alone through the empty dark streets towards the White Mist, when a carriage came from behind, and the coachman stood on his seat and shouted, "My lord, I will send you." ”

"No," Tarrant continued.

"It's a long walk out here," the driver stopped, "I was told to come here by Chief Gary." ”

Probably the officer who was escorting Sandra, the time was not early, he really needed a carriage to arrive in time, Tarrant got into the car, "White Mist Zone, be quick." ”

The carriage moved quickly through the building, and the driver knew the terrain well, and he walked the side road.

The candle flame in the business district reflected Tarrant in a wolf's civilian clothes through the window, he stepped on the grass when he followed Benson, grass juice, flower juice, and wet mud were stained on his pants, he hadn't had time to take a shower, dinner was destined to be very depressing, Tarrant sighed, fortunately, his time was not wasted on meaningless things, the love of the poor made him more sure of the nature of the power of the nobles, Tarrant should feel lucky, because of Katrina, she never minded these nothing.

What happened to Benson is a tragedy, just because of the difference in status his love and dignity are despised, this society has become pathological, it has built a wall between people, the rich are on the other side of the wall, the poor are on the other side of the wall, they can't tolerate each other, the feelings of intelligent beings are getting colder, maybe one day the race will be completely divided into two hostile societies.

Tarrant turned to the Light of Shelter, whether this righteous organization was going to protect the people on this side of the wall or on the other side of the wall, and the contradictions were accumulating and would one day erupt.

The mansions in the White Fog District swept past the car window, and Tarrant pulled the bell, "Turn left at the street corner in front of the third building." ”

The door to Katrina's house was open, and a waitress was waiting at the door, and Tarrant walked briskly, "Is Catrina there?"

"It's all there, dinner is ready. ”

Tarrant subconsciously straightened his collar and cuffs, "They didn't wait for me, did they?"

"Hehe, your lord has just returned, and you came at the right time. ”

Tarrant stepped into the hall, the ceiling hanging tray and the candles on the wall had been lit, the house had not been so bright in a long time, the owner Sorrentino was talking to a stranger, Katrina was sitting on the side of the sofa with red hair, she heard footsteps at the door and looked at Tarrant coldly, "You're finally here." ”

"Sorry...... Something happened on the way", Tarrant explained to the others, seven fourteen minutes, not too strict.

"Hahaha", Sorrentino stood up, dressed in a crisp court robe, "Tarrant, we've been gone for a while. ”

"Well, it's been almost a year", Tarrant remembers well.

"Come, let's start dinner", Sorrentino said to the stranger on the couch.

"Of course, it's really exciting," the stranger hurriedly stood up.

"Come," Sorrentino beckoned to the two men standing on the sidelines, "the first day back to Siant, rest well, don't keep your face strained." ”

The two men saluted Tarrant and walked to the dining room together, Sorrentino's friend and bodyguard, a defender and a sculptor who had removed his armor and his sturdy shoulders and arms propping up his civilian clothes to make him look like an exaggerated statue, compared to a mage resembling a short tree trunk, but Tarrant knew that this mage was not much different from Calpeber's abilities. They were responsible for the safety of the Sorrentino in the field, a combination that seems to have been maintained for a long time, and they have been on either side of the Sorrentino since Tarrant began to notice.

"Hello Tarrant, baby, aren't you strangers?" Sorrentino beckoned to the two of them at the door of the restaurant.

Katrina slowly stood up, "Please, paladin. ”

"Uh......", Tarrant walked into the dining room stiffly almost under her gaze.

Sorrentino didn't sit on the main seat, he sat casually at one side of the table, the stranger sat across from him, and the two guards were on the other side of the table, Tarrant picked the seat opposite Catrina and sat down, the familiar depression slowly came in, he had to be as formal as possible, it was too difficult

The waitress poured wine for the guests, and Tarrant politely whispered thanks to the waitress, he couldn't remember her name, though Katrina had introduced him three times.

"Come," Sorrentino said, raising his glass, "for the first night in Siant." ”

The people at the table raised their glasses together, it was Dumu wine, the common wine of noble banquets, and when Tarrant put down the glass, he was embarrassed to find that everyone else's cup had only taken a small sip, damn it.

"Don't be too inhibited, it's just a family dinner, oh I forgot I haven't introduced you two yet", Sorrentino looked at Tarrant, "This is Shefiger, the jewelry designer", and he introduced Shefig, "This is Tarrant, the paladin of the Shelter Light." ”

The two nodded to each other.

The waitress served the dish with a strange fish with a dark yellow body and prominent eyes.

"Try it, Shefige, this is the bone fish you've always wanted to try," Sorrentino said.

"Ah, what an honor", Shefig took a small bite, "it's a wonderful taste, I'm starting to love it, thank you for remembering the request", he tasted it again, "You're back from Komoch this time?"

"Coming back from a small town in Comohe. ”

Katrina glared at Tarrant, her eyes were clearly venting her dissatisfaction, Tarrant lowered her head and pretended to taste it seriously, the taste of the fish is indeed good, the bone fish is a rare fish species only in Komohe, the bones are hard and the meat is tender, it is said that the cooked bone fish meat is easy to fade, Tarrant tried it, and the fish meat on both sides was neatly cut under the light touch, wonderful.

"The gem you brought back this time must be very special, right?" asked Xie Feige curiously.

"Hehe, I personally loved the discovery", Sorrentino pushed the sauce towards Shefig, "try this, it will taste even better." I fell in love with this gem the first time I saw it, and I wanted you to design a unique style. ”

"Of course, I'll do my best, can I take a look?" said Shefiger, who was also unusually enthusiastic about gemstones.

Sorrentino took out a red stone encased in impurities from his intimate inner pocket, close to the size of a badge.

"Very good luster, rare garnet color, very pure, elegant", Schefig looked at it carefully, "It must have taken you a lot of effort to find such a gem, right?

"No, it's too ordinary, I want something special. ”

"Let me think," said Shefiger, forgetting the meal in front of him for a moment, as he looked at the jewels by the candlelight on the table.

"It reminds me of my most precious things", Sorrentino smiled at Katrina, "my daughter." ”

"Me?" said Katrina.

"Yes, it's your gift. Shefiger, this gem has to be unique. ”

"Of course it's already unique, Miss, you're going to be the most beautiful girl in the world," Scheffig greeted Katrina with his glass raised.

Katrina's resentment was completely dispelled by the sudden good news, "For me?"

Tarrant suddenly had an idea, "For the most beautiful girl in the world," he raised his glass.

The people at the table congratulated each other, and Katrina showed a rare shyness, and she smiled lightly and raised her glass together.

Amid the laughter, the two jewelers began to talk about the specifics of the design, which Tarrant could not say, and he bowed his head and enjoyed his dinner, which he would have enjoyed if he were at home, but here, etiquette made the food taste much less palatable.

"Tarrant," the Shaper mage greeted first, "what have you been up to lately?"

"Uh......" Tarrant wondered if talking about the Psics here would affect the atmosphere, "or those things." ”

"Haha, boy, I heard something strange", the strong defender wiped his beard, "about the flying spirit suckers." ”
