Chapter 451: Christopher's Ale
After returning to Maple Leaf Manor, Lilian locked herself in the room in silence, and her emotions were extremely confused. Under her own questioning, Anita told her what she knew about the tragedy that had taken place in the Imperial City of Dourojar. She couldn't believe that because of herself, thousands of innocent people died in the fire, both the old and the children, all of them died in the Randy family residence, and even dozens of women and children were suffocated alive in the cellar.
Lillian couldn't imagine the despair of those innocent people in the face of the countless fires of the Last Judgment. When Anita said this, Lilian couldn't control her emotions at all, and could only keep crying.
During dinner, Li Xuan saw Lilian's strange appearance and found her after dinner.
"I'm worried about you, Lillian. Can you tell me what's going on?" Li Xuan gently held her hand.
Lillian looked away, tears falling again.
Li Xuan felt distressed for a while, gently hugged her in his arms, and hugged her gently, he thought that Lilian remembered what happened before.
Facing Lilian, who had been silent, Li Xuan finally had no choice but to let her rest by herself, and then went to find Fiona and asked Fiona to try to enlighten Lilian.
Until the next day, Li Xuan didn't see a smile on Lilian's face, which made him feel a little irritable. He didn't know what was going on with Lillian, or what he could do to help her.
After another day, Li Xuan finally couldn't help but find Lilian.
"I want to talk to you. Li Xuan looked at Lilian with some distress.
Lilian took a slow breath, suppressed her emotions, and followed Li Xuan to the wine cellar.
"Your state worries me, I want to know the reason why you are depressed, and I hope you can share your heartfelt words with me. Li Xuan said to Lilian sincerely.
Lilian's face was a little gloomy, and she was silent for a long time, and finally under Li Xuan's gentle gaze, she said with some trembling: "I can't do it...... I don't know what to do about it, you've done so much for me, the innocent people at Randy's station...... I can't do ......."
Li Xuan's heart ached, and when he looked at Lilian, who was already in tears, he could only step forward and hug her.
"It's all my fault...... Because...... I'm the only one who let you ...... like this That's why those innocent people are ...... It's all because of ...... I. Lillian cried differently, on the verge of a breakdown.
In the wine cellar, Li Xuan could only hold her silently, he didn't know how to comfort Lilian, he had also fallen into a painful mood after the doomsday trial in Durogal, and he had been unable to extricate himself. Not long ago, after killing these magicians and soldiers of the Arissanrite Empire in the Maple Leaf Manor, he himself also fell into a guilty mood for a while.
"It's not you, Lillian. Li Xuan said a sentence in a dull voice, and many emotions that had been suppressed in his heart resurfaced again, the murder he had caused in the Randy family station, his eyes that were blinded by anger and hatred, and the hundreds of families that had been shattered because of himself after that, but things had happened, and he had also been paid for what he had done to garrison Carouston City for the Arissanrite Empire for 10 years.
"Is there anything I can do for you?" Li Xuan said slowly to Lilian in his arms.
After trying to calm down, Lilian replied, "I want to go back, back to Dourogal, I want to go home." ”
Li Xuan hugged her tightly for a long time before answering her: "You will take care of yourself, right?"
"I love you...... But I can't face you either. Liliane said with red eyes.
Li Xuan didn't know how to answer her, so he could only hold her in his arms and feel the warmth of her body.
"Thank you. Lilian kept murmuring in Li Xuan's arms.
Without packing up much, Lilian and Li Xuan said goodbye in tears, left the Maple Leaf Manor in the night, and slowly left in the direction of the northeast alone.
"Have a drink with you?" Emma and Jaeg appeared next to Li Xuan.
"Will she come back?" Li Xuan looked at Jaege.
Jaeg grinned and replied, "I don't know, fate is always elusive. ”
"I didn't expect her to leave sooner. There was some tiredness in Li Xuan's words.
"But you've at least thought about it. Emma hit the nail on the head.
Li Xuan fell into a long silence.
"Find a place to drink, I want to drink human ale. Jagg the caveman grinned.
"There's no good ale in Carouston City, and I happen to know of a place that has a good ale, but it's a bit far away. Fiona suddenly walked over and interjected.
"Sir, remember Christopher of Finney, whose ale is the best in the whole Duchy of Dunslemont!" said Fiona with a smile.
"Then go give it a try. Jaeg grinned and looked at Li Xuan.
Without speaking, Li Xuan raised his hand, and a "Gate of Another Dimension" suddenly appeared in front of him, and then several people walked in, and then cast three more spells of the "Gate of Another Dimension" and appeared directly in Fini City.
Under Fiona's guidance, several people find Christopher's tavern.
Before entering, a lot of noise could be heard through the door, and after pushing the door in, the warm atmosphere of the tavern quickly enveloped the four people.
Fiona was quickly recognized, and Christopher received the four of them in person, informed by the tavern helper.
On the long bar, Christopher poured a large glass of ale for each of the four of them, and Jeg the cave man immediately began to drink it.
Li Xuan, who was in a bad mood, also grabbed the wine glass and drank it, a large mouthful of cold ale wine poured from his mouth down his throat into his stomach, which was different from the taste and taste of wine, very similar to dark beer in another world, with a strong wheat aroma and wine aroma mixed with some very different aromas.
"Fiona, you're right, it's the best ale I've ever had, and it tastes really good!" the caveman Jaeg complimented without hesitation.
His words obviously made Christopher very useful, and he directly refilled him with a large glass.
After a few glasses of wine, the atmosphere was much better, and Christopher recognized Li Xuan, who was very polite and behaved neither humble nor arrogant.
"There's nothing like a few glasses of ale to forget the unpleasant for a while. Christopher smiled and raised his glass to Li Xuan.
"Thank you. Li Xuan also raised his glass and raised his glass to him, this tavern boss who had a relationship with each other had given them some help, and Kashan had talked to him a few times later.
The tavern helper brought in a lot of food, mostly sliced and fried and sprinkled with fine salt.
The group drank in Christopher's tavern until the tavern closed, and the drunk Li Xuan slept in Christopher's tavern room on the spot, and Fiona took care of him until late at night.
