Chapter Ninety-Three: Exterminate the Ghouls
"Amelia, if you eat snow berries again, you won't be able to eat the Black Forest cake that you are waiting for!"
"Let her continue to eat, she always likes to run to the kitchen to get food, and when she eats, she can't eat anymore!"
When little Lori heard that there was still a Black Forest cake to eat, she reluctantly put the snow berries back, and then looked at Elan with a hopeful gaze, "Elan, where is the Black Forest cake!"
"It's going to be good right away, only the baking step remains," Ellan put the cake on the table into the kitchen oven, "I didn't expect there to be an oven in the fortress, I was going to make one temporarily!"
"Before the Cradle Rock was abandoned, merchants and travelers often settled here, and the commander of the fortress thought of making it more comfortable so that he could charge an expensive service fee. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
As for the role of the fortress itself, he completely left it behind.
If it weren't for the difficulty of the road leading here, and the opening up of a trade route nearby, large and small towns began to appear on both sides of the trade route, so that fewer and fewer people settled in the fortress, maybe this place would have developed into a big town!"
Christina's words made Elan a little more informed, he didn't expect the fortress to have such a past.
Also, this fortress is for the nearby Fadigo mine, the mine resources are exhausted, and the fortress is useless, and the cost of raising prisoners who are miners here is really distressing.
Little Lori never left the kitchen, she wanted to watch the cake come out of the oven, and Christina went to deliver food to the wounded, and Elan tried to help Christina, but the barbarian easily lifted the barrel of food and pushed Elan aside.
Looking at Christina who "giggled" out loud, Elan gave her a suggestive gesture, and Christina immediately lost, she was still a little shy and reserved.
At lunch, "Cake!cake!cake!" Lori sat at the table, tapping the table with a fork in her hand, and watched with excitement as Elan put the Black Forest cake on the table.
At the table sat Sinia, Hety, Christina and Fred, and this was the leading table.
The sweet but not greasy Black Forest cake, mixed with sweet and cold snow berries, makes everyone happy to eat.
In the current situation and weather, being able to enjoy a sweet tooth made everyone's mood relax a lot.
Of course, half of the Black Forest cake went into Little Lori's stomach, and she was not satisfied with it, at this moment, she held her bulging little belly and looked at the remaining cakes on the plate with a tangled face.
Sinia said to help her put it away, and the little Lori immediately protected the cake in front of her: "Don't! You can eat better than Amelia, you will definitely eat Amelia's Black Forest cake secretly, and then tell Amelia that it was the rat who ate it." ā
"Poof"
Elan, who was drinking cherry wine, couldn't help it, and squirted out the wine that had been drunk into his mouth, he felt that Sinia might have done it more than once, and the little Lori's subconscious reaction was too fast.
Elan also sat down to eat with Sinia and the others, and the dining etiquette he inadvertently revealed made the others present look sideways.
Although the dining etiquette is different from that of the Empire, it is still clear that Elam is definitely a well-educated person.
Strangely enough, Elam seemed to be a nobleman except for the meal, and the rest of the time he was no different from a commoner.
Elam's explanation is: "Eating is the process of receiving good food, and you must know how to cherish every piece of food, according to the person who taught him cooking skills." ā
"You're in luck! Are you the bastard of Lady Luck? Not only have you been taught fighting skills, but you have also been taught cooking skills!"
Hetty picked up a piece of Thortham Sauce Elk Steak and put it in her mouth, chewing it with an intoxicated face.
"Is there really a god in this world?" asked Elan, taking a sip of cherry wine.
"Some gods are not sure, but the god of the dawn seems to have several other gods, all of whom have seen them with their own eyes, and these are all sung by the bards. ā
It was Fred who answered Elan, who gently turned the wine glass in his hand and said with a playful expression, "Bards, whoever gives them benefits, they make up stories of epic heroes, so their stories are not accurate."
However, some powerful creatures, in front of ordinary people, are gods!"
"Alright, I'm done," Fred took a sip of the wine from his glass, pushed away his chair and stood up, "You're a good cook, you might as well consider a chef position at Black Swan Castle, it's definitely more comfortable than working in the cemetery." ā
Elan smiled at Fred, he knew that Fred was kind, and everyone knew that people who worked in the cemetery would be alienated by others.
"I won't be in the cemetery for long, and when the time comes, I'll come to Christina and hope she won't starve me to death!"
Immediately, the other guards and female barbarians who were guarding the house all looked at Elam with great contempt, and they had only seen one of them who could eat soft rice so justifiably and without blushing.
Christina covered her mouth and laughed, and little Lori secretly took the plate of cakes, jumped out of the chair, and ran towards Christina's room, while not forgetting to sweep Sinia with a wary look.
Everyone in the room laughed, and Sinia had a hateful expression.
When Elan saw the cold Sinia for the first time, she showed a completely different expression from usual, and she couldn't help but feel a difference in her heart.
It seems that it is not that Sinia's expression is cold, but that she is not used to being emotionally rich in front of outsiders, or that Sinia is too lazy to get along with metrics.
Elan, who had practiced Winter's swordsmanship, now has a sincere admiration for Sinia's talent and wisdom in training.
No one knows where Lori hid her cake, except for Sinia.
When the little Lori triumphantly showed off that she had hidden the cake, Elan saw the corners of Sinia's mouth and curved an imperceptible arc, and he could only mourn for the little Lori in his heart!
After a break after lunch, Elan hugged little Lori, walked beside Christina, and sent Sinia and them to encircle and suppress the ghouls, because of the weather, no matter what the outcome of this siege of the ghouls is, they will embark on the way back tomorrow.
On the side of the Black Swan Castle, except for the guards and the wounded, the other combatants were all involved in the operation to encircle and suppress the ghouls.
Even Voruske, who had not long recovered from his wounds, followed behind Sinia with a large bundle of short spears.
Everyone's body has several bottles of potions, and Vorusk's waist is hung with two circles of potions, and it seems that Sinia is using Vorusk as a logistics soldier.
