Chapter 68: Preparation (1)
Alan felt that the scene in front of him was constantly changing, sometimes flashing images of himself and Ani shopping, eating, and watching movies in the world of his previous life, and sometimes flashing pictures of himself and Cialis working hard to practice magic, learning together, and growing together in the castle, however, in the end, these images would be burned by a knight on a black horse, with a foul black flame, and countless times, he was pierced by a rusty sword, or trampled to death by a black horse with flames burning on his body. Every time the pain makes me struggle to get up, but in the end, it is as if I have forgotten everything, I wake up from a new dream, and occasionally I can defeat the dark horse, kill the knight, and then save Ani and Cialis, and then the scene is shattered, and everything starts all over again, which almost drives Eren crazy.
Then, gradually, the rate of nightmares decreased, the happy endings gradually increased, and the sharp pain in the brain was gradually relieved, as if a warm body was holding him, slowly massaging his head.
It's warm, it's a soft feeling.
Then Alan opened his eyes.
In front of me is a ceiling made of logs, a delicate chandelier hangs from above, and the window also spills into the dazzling sunlight, the sun shines softly on my body, and I feel that the discomfort on my body has been dispelled.
"Well, why is it so heavy. Alan muttered to himself and looked at his chest, a delicate little face was pillowed on his chest, long silver hair scattered on Alan's body, and a wisp of saliva flowed onto Alan's clothes without an image to form a small water stain.
"Why is the little princess here?" Alan muttered to himself in confusion, and then lightly opened the little princess's first shift, crying and laughing, at her thigh, another pretty face was pillowed on it, and her short black hair fell with her breathing.
Alan had no choice, and delicately moved Cialis's head away, and after getting out of bed, he simply moved both of them to the bed, covering them with white sheets, both of them seemed very tired, so that their movements did not wake them up, but frowned, and after covering the sheets, the two of them actually agreed, and sighed comfortably.
Alan gently brushed off the bangs of the two people, only to see that the beautiful faces of the two were a little tired, and even a little sign of dark circles appeared, obviously they hadn't slept for many days.
"Thank you. Alan said movingly, obviously the two of them are so tired to take care of themselves, and it is natural for Ciris to take care of herself, as for the little princess, she also guessed a little, but I am afraid that the details will not be known until after talking to the little princess. Now he can be sure that the little princess should be Aini, but he is not sure if the little princess remembers what happened in the dream completely, or is just affected by the intimacy between the two in the dream, so she will be close to him.
No matter what, a person can have two people who care about him so much in his life, which still makes Alan feel extremely happy, and after gently touching the heads of the two, Alan walked out of the room gently.
"Mr. Allen, you're finally awake. A woman's voice suddenly sounded from the side, causing Alan to almost jump.
"Don't be scary, ...... are you?" Alan looked to the side, and an elf wearing black-rimmed glasses and a clean maid's outfit was standing nearby. There is already a relatively mature glass craft in this world, but because the production process requires magic, the scope of use is relatively narrow, most of them are used as containers, and the basic lens principle has been understood by craftsmen, and myopia glasses are also derived from it.
"Hello, Mr. Allen, I am the chief lady-in-waiting of this princess's house, and I can tell me anything. The chief maid said after a meticulous salute.
"I do have some questions I want to ask......" Eren was about to speak when he was interrupted by the head maid.
"I think you've been hungry after three days of sleep, so I'll take you to the restaurant first, and then ask any questions you've had your fill." The maid pushed her glasses and said.
"Three days...... It's good. Alan said in surprise, I didn't expect that I had slept for three days, no wonder Cialis and the little princess who were taking care of it on the side looked tired, it seems that the continuous battle with the nightmare and the death knight still caused a lot of damage to their bodies, although the treatment technique made his wound heal quickly, but after all, he overdrew his energy, fortunately, he was still young, and after sufficient rest, he should not leave sequelae. It is said that the highest level of healing can really achieve the living dead, flesh and bones, but that kind of healing technique will overdraw the user's vitality, the specific Alan is not very clear, but the legendary priest or saint seems to have a lifespan far less than the magicians and warriors who are also human legends, as for the wood elves, druids or goblins benefit from the long lifespan, the impact is not so obvious.
Upon being brought to the restaurant, Alan enjoyed a rare hot meal, cereal, white bread, fruit, and even some bacon, apparently a hearty breakfast specially prepared to cater to human tastes. Of course, elves also eat grains and meat, in fact, most elves are basically not picky eaters when they go out to practice, after all, it is impossible to have their favorite food to choose at any time when they go out, and even in the twilight forest, they can't actually ban meat, after all, the cycle of food is originally part of nature, even the druids who worship nature will not force this too much, of course, but most elves are vegetarians, eat some fruits or vegetables and the like, and occasionally take out fruit wine made from fruits during celebrations.
Originally, it didn't feel obvious, but after seeing the food, Allen's stomach suddenly began to make a loud sound, and at this time, Allen didn't care about face, so he sat down and chewed it directly.
"That...... Is there anything wrong with you?" Halfway through eating, Alan finally couldn't help but say, the lady kept staring at him with sharp eyes during the meal, and this pressure made Alan feel uncomfortable even eating.
"That's right. The chief maid pushed her glasses again, not knowing if it was because the frame was not the right size, or if it was just posturing, but Alan thought the latter was much more likely.
"You've been in your room with Princess Anivia for so many days, so you probably haven't done anything rude. The maid said sharply, and even Alan could clearly see that her glasses were actually sharply reflected.
「...... No. Alan said.
"You're hesitating. The maid asked.
"If you say no, you don't. Alan continued to say stiffly.
"And after all, I'm just sober, and I haven't even eaten enough, so what can I do? Alan desperately screamed, but his eyes avoided the chief maid a little, and he looked extremely weak.
"Does that mean you'd do anything if you'd had your fill?" said the maid in a majestic manner, barely slapping her hands on the table and yelling.
"You......" Alan looked at the chief maid with a smile in his eyes.
"Princess Anivia is now twelve or thirteen years old in human appearance, and you have a bad idea of a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl, does your teacher know that you are a lover of young girls? The chief maid pushed the glasses again, and at this moment Alan wanted to smash them.
"I'm ......" Alan was about to argue, but was interrupted by the head maid.
"You know that Princess Anivia is gifted and cute, and can be said to be the idol of the whole forest, if everyone knows that you have a lot of thoughts about our princess, believe it or not, the birds that want to peck you to death can be lined up at the entrance of the forest. The chief maid continued to speak at length, and at this moment Allen was living as if he was being tried in court, but he didn't have a word of leniency, and he sat through the prison.
"You're kidding...... Alan said weakly, the bread in his mouth feeling like sawdust.
"I have only one thing to say for such a person, Mr. Allen, is that okay. The chief maid said, and then stared at Eren with stern eyes.
"You've said so much, is there still a sentence left, let's say, let's talk. Alan said, his eyes fixed on the meal in front of him, waiting for the mental blow to come.
「...... Thank you for saving Princess Ainevia, thank you very much. The maid bowed deeply.
"......," I looked at the chief maid in amazement.
"I'm going to see Princess Ainevia, and I'll be out of company for a while. The chief maid stood up with a calm expression and walked in the direction of the room, but Alan clearly saw the maid's ?? There seems to be some redness on the face.
"The elves in the forest just know how to play, and even thanking them is so ingenious. Alan said with a smile, looking at the ingredients in front of him, he suddenly felt much better, picked up the wheat porridge and snorted and ate it.
"It's delicious. 」
