Chapter 32: Behind Us Is Erathia!(10)
The council hall was brightly lit. Commander Leo led the generals from table to table to toast the guests from afar, and it seemed that many people would have to drink again tonight.
Hart was naturally the main object of the toast. Who called him the commander of the Hart Legion, and he fought an exciting victory before entering the city!
His tongue was already a little bigger, and he was pulling Gabriel and Lucifer to nag incessantly. Ressa stood across from Gabriel and shook his head slightly.
Gabriel understood, and immediately stood up from the room.
"Come with me for a walk outside, it's too noisy in here!" Renesa whispered.
"It's a bit of a big deal, is it...... The banquet wasn't over yet, and it was rude for us to leave halfway. Brother Hart is talking about his legendary experience, why don't you listen to it too?"
"Where's his story, is his childhood over?" said Ressa, mocking.
"Well, I've entered my teenage years, and I'm about to turn a wonderful chapter!" the silly Gabriel didn't hear the teasing in Ressa's tone.
"Oh my God, this is just the end of his childhood, if you keep talking about his current age, I'm afraid it's going to be dawn!" Ressa glared, "Are you going with me?"
"Or ...... Why don't you go for a walk by yourself first, and I'll come back to you later?" Gabriel didn't drink much, and he felt a little unsatisfied.
Renesa paused angrily, then turned and walked away!
"Women can't get used to it too much, otherwise their temper will get bigger and bigger!" Hart is like a big brother who knows nothing and knows nothing at the moment, teaching the two younger brothers without reservation.
"Yes, you can't spoil women too much, otherwise men will have no personal freedom at all!" Gabriel actually sat down as well: "If you want to say that it is good to drink wine, you can be brave enough to say no to women!"
"Kudos to these lovely women, they are the most beautiful scenery in the world!" Hart raised his glass, and the three of them drank it down.
Hart wiped his mouth, then said, "Where did I just go?"
"You just said you peeked at the aunt next door taking a shower...... Gabriel and Lucifer laughed heartily. It seems like this kind of bad thing, every curious teenager has done it?
"Yes, the aunt suddenly appeared at me, grabbed a scarf and draped it over her body, then grabbed a broom and chased it out! Oh my God, you don't see her big swaying from side to side, they are bigger than a cow's!" Hart was already out of breath laughing.
Ressa heard the laughter behind her. She was very angry, okay you Gabriel, after drinking a little wine, you will be bold, right?
However, she almost hit her head in someone's arms with her head buried in anger. His chest was broad and thick, like a thick wall.
"This is Miss Ressa, the precious daughter of the elven white-robed high priest Somla! Don't look at her beautiful and handsome, she is not ambiguous at all when she fights!"
Renesa was startled, it turned out that this person was actually Commander Leo who was taking turns to toast!
This time there was no escape!Ressa had no choice but to take the glass from the waiter.
Leo jumped on the long table, raised his glass and said, "To your Majesty the Queen!
People also raised their wine glasses and slapped their hands on the table.
As soon as Ressa had finished drinking the fierce cup of tequila, he immediately slapped the cool breeze into his flaming throat with his hand, and fled out of the door in embarrassment.
Leo also stood on the long table and said: "Legend has it that when Dionysus, the god of wine, first tried to make liquor, the liquor was always as light as boiled water. An omniscient prophet told him, "Dionysus, the wine must be dripping with human blood for it to have the seven passions and desires of man." So Dionysus sat outside the door, waiting for passers-by to pass by.
The first person who passed by his door was the bard, and Dionysus asked him for a drop of blood to drip in the wine, so that we could always find the poet's sigh and sigh when we drank the first glass of wine!
The second person who passed by his door was a fierce warrior, so when we drank the second glass of wine, we felt the strength and fearlessness contained in the wine!
The third person who passed by his door was a madman, so we didn't go crazy until we had a third drink!"
People laughed knowingly.
"But it's not a big deal to get drunk, it's a big deal to be incoherent, to have no decency, or to get into a fight, and then lie down in the pigsty unconscious...... This is what a man should do, isn't it? Come, let's pay homage to the great Dionysus! He made us taste so delicious in the world! Even if you are drunk tonight, you will not have to look everywhere for the pigsty, so please sleep in the hall! The hall is as warm as any woman's bed!"
People began to pound the table again.
"The only regret is that you can't do it tonight! If you want me to say it's nothing, can you still do it when you're really drunk?"
Many people began to stand and raise their glasses in invitation, "To the great Commander Leo!"
"To the great Commander Leo!"
"They're noisy!" Jasmine stood on the steps outside the council hall, looking at Ressa as she fled.
"yes, men are stupid, that stuff doesn't taste good at all!" Resas was still sticking out her tongue.
"I don't think they're mature men at all, but children who never grow up!
"You don't know how these Yankees drink, they all drink in big cups, like water! Those two fools will get drunk tonight!"
"If Lucifer gets drunk, I'll never drag him into his kennel again!" Jasmine said resolutely, "Just let him sleep on the floor for one night!"
"Me too!" Renesa smiled, "Maybe it will teach them a lesson!"
The brief silence made one feel a little oppressive. Looking at the torches on the castle tower, Jasmine suddenly sighed.
"Jasmine, are you a good friend of yours?" asked Ressa.
"Of course, you're my best friend!" said Jasmine, surely.
"But you don't seem to have told me something...... I can tell you don't want to come here at all. ”
Jasmine was silent for a while, and then whispered, "Yes, I have a deep fear of the undead...... I just want to get as far away from them as possible!"
"Can you tell me why? Maybe you'll feel better about it. ”
"I'm sorry, Renesas......" Jasmine sighed faintly, "I don't think I'm ready...... But you may find out later!"
Seeing that she was a little embarrassed, Ressa diverted the topic and said, "This place is very cold, I really don't know why Commander Leo is still guarding this place!"
Jasmine didn't speak, but a veteran standing guard next to her took over: "Girl, although this land is barren and desolate, it is left to us by our ancestors after all, and of course we have to keep it!"
"But there is a lot of land in Erathia that is more suitable for people to live in......"
A person cannot choose his own birth, whether he is born rich or poor, home is always a warm harbor, and we have been fighting for this family all our lives. Other lands may be more fertile and warm than here, but they are not our own, and we are only travelers at best. Only here can we find a sense of belonging!"
Renesa and Jasmine's eyes widened, and they couldn't fathom the words.
"It's like a leaf, and when it withers, it always drifts back to the land that nourished it, and then decays and becomes part of it. The old soldier held a spear in his arms and yawned and said: "Alas, you are still young, and you will gradually understand it in the future! We will not listen to the officials to fool us, no matter where we are behind us, as long as anyone tries to take away the land that belongs to us, we will find him desperately!"
