Camp talk
Kaye and Sarah walked into Sarah's tent, which was set up with a bed with a quilt and a log table and chairs in the middle. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The wooden box that serves as a temporary wardrobe is placed in the corner, and this is Sarah's tent, which is very simple.
Sarah walked over to the edge of the bed and sat down, picked up the bed, and put one of the books on the head of the bed, the name of which was "The Complete Collection of Continental History", which was a book that recorded the history of the past. Normally, whether it is a commoner girl or a delicate aristocratic lady, the books that women like to read are basically "Heroic Stories" and "Knight Novels", which are very popular among women, because such books full of romantic love stories are very suitable for young women's preferences.
The "Continental History Collection" in her hand was bought by Sarah when she was in Jacksa, spending a few silver coins and a certain bard who was staying in Jacksa for a short time.
Sarah doesn't like fictional love story books, and prefers books that teach you about the history of the past rather than books that don't have any real meaning.
Kaye sat down on a chair in front of a log table with a teapot and a wooden cup, and Kaye poured a glass of water, picked it up and drank it down.
Beautiful Sarah was reading a book, and the tent suddenly became quiet, and even the sound of footsteps outside the tent could be heard.
Sarah, who was quietly reading the book, seemed to blend into the surrounding environment, Kaye had no intention of disturbing Sarah, and Sarah's cold expression, who was quietly reading the book, also softened.
I poured a glass of water again and drank it, and time passed little by little.
"Patriarch, can I come in?"
A voice came from outside the tent, and Sarah put down the "Continental History Collection" in her hand.
"Come in. ”
The curtain of the tent was lifted, and into the tent was a relatively small demon wearing a white chef's hat and an apron commensurate with his size, the demon cook who was in charge of the food of his people.
There aren't many chefs in the Demon Clan, and Lauverche is the best chef among the Clan.
"Patriarch, sorry to bother you, it's time for dinner. ”
"Dinner brought in. ”
"Please wait. ”
Lauverche withdrew from the tent, and heard Kay's hand subconsciously trembling when he heard the dinner, to be honest, the food of the demon clan was really not to his taste.
The silver-haired Demon Patriarch walked over to the log table, his golden eyes looking at Kaye.
"I'm sorry, but the content of the book is very interesting, and before I know it, time has passed, and we will have dinner together. ”
The girl's eyes were full of anticipation, and Kaye, who originally had a different mind, smiled awkwardly, knowing that there are not only demons in the camp, and if you want to have dinner, it is better to go and eat with the nobles in the camp, so that the food of humans can meet your taste.
I don't plan to go back today, and it won't take much time to have a dinner, so I can come back and chat with Sarah slowly after eating, and the anticipation in my friend's eyes makes Kaye unable to say no.
Not long after, Lauferche, who was confident in his cooking skills, served dinner with a large pot of broth, fiery red fruit called "dragon fruit" the size of several large apples, and some dried jerky.
The jerky is hard and the taste is not good, so if you put more seasoning in the broth, it would be good.
Kaye was less appetizing than Kaye was whetting for dinner at the Demon Clan's dinner, and after dinner, Kaye and Sarah chatted about how Kaye had been doing in Jacksa since the last time Kaye had left him.
Sarah has very few words, basically Kaye takes the initiative to speak, but Kaye has long been used to getting along with Sarah like this, because Sarah's personality is like this, there are not many words, and because Sarah is very quiet, whether it is talking or getting along, she will feel very calm inside.
Looking beyond the tent, Kaye's mind was reminded of Jacksa's attack on Alcreo eleven years ago.
The plains were littered with the corpses of human soldiers who had fallen to the ground, the corpses of nobles who had died in battle, the corpses of demons, broken swords stuck in the ground, and broken arrows......
The guards guarding the royal capital, the soldiers of the noble lords, the next moment maybe they will become corpses on the plain, maybe they will never see their families again, lovers.
There was no fear on the faces of the guards and soldiers, more determination, because defending the king behind them was the "faith" that supported them.
Even if they were scratched, slashed, or shot by arrows, the demons still pushed forward more heroically as if nothing happened, but the guards and soldiers who firmly defended the royal capital used their lives to block the demons from moving forward.
The demon patriarch with the life-harvesting scythe in her hand harvests the lives of soldiers on the plains, and wherever she walks, a life-harvesting tornado appears, taking life away with every swing of the scythe.
More guards and soldiers were falling, and many more were rushing forward, inspired by the horn of the charge.
Magic and arrows flew up in the sky, brilliant magic and terrifying arrows took more lives, and lives were lost every second.
Kaye came back to her senses, and woke up early to see many times the young girls who had lost their families after the war, and the women were crying loudly and sadly, and they were crying about the suffering caused by the war, because the post-war pension did not soothe the pain of losing their husbands and lovers.
War brings great benefits to the victors, and the losers suffer the bitter consequences of defeat.
Kaye was once employed by a noble lord to defend the royal capital of the noble lord's kingdom, and at that time Kaye was still a mercenary, and together with Jelina, he earned money by completing mercenary tasks.
At that time, the noble lord who hired Kaye gave a very good reward, although Kaye hated war, but he still accepted the hire, because the pay was quite generous, and he didn't care, but he was paid so that Jielina, who was with him, could buy a lot of needed items.
The employer is a nobleman loyal to the royal family, but the royal capital defended by the employer was finally breached by the enemy because of the internal problems of the nobles.
The royal capital was breached, the soldiers of the enemy country robbed, burned, insulted and humiliated the women in the royal capital without any scruples, the royal palace was taken care of by the soldiers, the royal family of the royal capital was also brutally killed, and the fate of the noble royal women was very miserable.
Employed by the employer, what Kaye can do is to protect the safety of the employer, but because the king of defense has been breached, the royal family to be protected has a miserable end, and the employer who can't stand the blow commits suicide, and before the suicide, the employer shouted "There is no kingdom, and the nobles who have not been able to protect the royal family have no face to live." Even though many years have passed, I still can't forget the words that the aristocratic employer shouted before committing suicide.
The nobleman who once hired him was a noble nobleman, and even if the country perished, he could choose to go to another country, but he chose to be loyal to the kingdom with his life.
He was a true nobleman to be admired.
The utensils on the log table had already been cleaned up by the demon cook Lauverche, and candles were lit in the tent, and the selfless candles lit the tent with their own light.
Her friend's silver-haired girl was quietly watching her, and Kaye was watching the candle light, sorting out her complicated feelings as she recalled the past. Obviously, he was going to have a good chat with Sarah, but he didn't talk much.
The silver-haired girl sitting quietly in the chair looked more beautiful than usual in the light of the candlelight, and because she was very close, she could smell the good body fragrance of the girl.
After a little more conversation, Kaye got up from his chair, although he didn't plan to go home, but it was not early, dinner had already been eaten, and he had to leave Sarah's tent, otherwise it would affect Sarah, who was unmarried.
Kaye turned and flicked his cloak, but it was grabbed by his small white hands.
"Not staying?"
The silver-haired girl's eyes revealed longing, Kaye knew that she hoped that she could stay with her, if it was still early, it would be fine, but it was not early, and Sarah was an unmarried girl, so she couldn't be so irrational and cause unnecessary influence on her friends.
"I'm sorry, I'm just outside the tent, you can call me if you have something. ”
If you want to rest at night, you can go to the nobleman's tent to rest, and even if you stay with Sarah, you don't have a bed to rest on.
Sarah let go of the hand that grabbed Kaye's cape, and although she was reluctant, she let go, Kaye was worried about something, and of course Sarah knew that she couldn't bother Kaye.
In the quiet tent, the silver-haired girl, who silently read the name of the departing young man, blew out the candles in the tent.
PS: I don't feel it anymore no matter how I modify it, it's a real headache.
