A new beginning

Kaye sat at the checkout counter of his grocery store, yawning boredly. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Sophia, a beautiful blonde girl with an apron around her waist, is holding a feather broom to clean the dust from the goods on the shelves.

Sophia has been at Kaye's house for two days as a boarder. The original impression of Kaye was stuck in eleven years ago, but now it has changed somewhat.

He likes to drink, and he doesn't care much about the grocery store when it's unattended, and until he meets Sophia again, his partner who lives with him takes care of Kaye's life. Occasionally, his partner would leave for a few days to go to the Magic Tower, and Kaye would lose his life.

Grocery stores are closed, and overnight stays at taverns are a regular occurrence.

This unhealthy lifestyle for most single men is not necessarily bad, but it is not very reassuring.

Yes, Sophia feels that she should stay and take care of Kaye's life, at least until Jelina returns, not only for reciprocating Kaye's kindness for saving her, but also for Kaye's reassuring reasons.

Over the course of two days, Sophia became familiar with the prices of Kaye's grocery store merchandise, and at least she could help take care of Kaye when she left her grocery store alone and went to the tavern to drink alone.

At this time, a young man walked in, a magician in a magic robe.

The young magician glanced at Sophia in surprise, then walked to the shelves to pick up the goods.

Because he runs a grocery store, Kaye never has a lot of rare magic books, monster eggs, magic potions, and exquisite accessories.

The young magician took the egg of a monster with a deep pattern, looked at it, and put it down. After the eggs hatch, the monsters can be raised as a support for their combat power.

"It's just a pet-type monster, it's useless. ”

Whispering a complaint, the young magician was obviously a knowledgeable person.

Monsters are originally fierce beasts that grow in the depths of the forest, and it is very difficult to catch them, let alone get their eggs, there are very few eggs of powerful monsters in the market, and Kaye's store does not sell them, and the shops are full of noble ladies and aristocratic ladies, who like to buy pets to hatch and play.

This type of monster is relatively docile and easy to raise.

"The guests know that you are a powerful magician, and I highly recommend you to buy this magic potion. ”

In the corner of the shelf, Kaye pulled out a blue bottle of magical potion. The color is charming, at least by looking at the appearance, you can know that it is a high-end product.

"This is not a high-end goods that can be bought at will, the effect is very good, of course, if you buy it, I will give you a jewelry. ”

Kaye casually took out a star-shaped necklace and continued, "You see this chain is good, take it to the person you like, it's a good choice." ”

The young magician was stunned for a moment, and unconsciously took out the silver coin.

"Thank you for your patronage, looking for you three copper coins. ”

"Ahh ”

The young magician walked out of the grocery store, and Kaye greeted another customer who came to the door.

Kaye, who has no spirit, is in the presence of a customer, and the customer is endless with all kinds of words.

"That's it for today, Sophia, you take off your apron and let's go out. ”

"Huh, why?"

"You've been here for two days, you can't stay at home all the time, I'll take you to get acquainted with the city. ”

"Okay, okay. ”

Sophia took off her apron and put it at the cash register, and arranged her hair with her hands.

"Is the store closing? It's still early. ”

"That's it, the customer who came abnormally paid with a conscience. ”

"But, but..."

"It's okay, the security in the city is good, and there are no good things of value anyway. ”

Kaye's indifferent attitude made Sophia very uneasy, and at the same time, it also strengthened Sophia's idea that she should stay until Jelina returned.

In fact, it is not unreasonable that this is indifferent, this is the royal capital, and the security in the city is relatively good, and the patrolling guards will patrol here from time to time. In addition, regular customers do not steal even if they don't buy goods, so there is nothing valuable in the store in the first place, so there is no need to risk being caught in jail and stealing.

Walking down the shop-lined streets, Kaye responds to those who greet him while introducing Sophia to everything in the city.

Before you know it, you've arrived at a lively market. The bazaar has a variety of stalls, including fruit sellers, snacks, and ingredients.....

Of course, there are sometimes some businessmen here who get some good things and will come here to rent a stall temporarily.

For example, not far away, there was a middle-aged fat businessman, holding a thick magic book, negotiating with a magician in a magic robe.

"I miss it!"

Sophia looked at everything in front of her and sighed quietly.

Once upon a time, the royal capital of his own kingdom was also so lively.

The war has made it disappear, and it can only be remembered as the past.

Take a deep breath, now is not the time to lament the past.

Kaye walked over to one of the stalls, which were filled with fresh fruit.

"Isn't this Lord Kaye, who is this young lady?"

It was the plainly dressed aunt who spoke, and Sophia, who looked unusually beautiful, asked in surprise.

"It's not such a troublesome relationship. ”

"You say that you are worried that the beautiful witch lady next to you will be angry. ”

"Why?"

Kaye was puzzled, and then the middle-aged ingredient boss of the stall next door accosted: "After all, Lord Kaye is a young man, and it is normal for him to like beautiful girls. ”

"It's constantly being dumped, men really. ”

The aunt's words made the owners of the surrounding stalls laugh, and the middle-aged ingredient boss who was laughed smiled embarrassedly and was not angry.

Kaye took two large red apples, handed one to Sophia, who was slightly flushed next to her, took out a copper coin and handed it to her aunt before leaving the stall.

"Don't care, they're just joking, they're all kind people in nature. ”

"I just feel like this country is really peaceful, and that's all thanks to Mr. Kaye. ”

"Me?"

Sophia stopped, looked at Kaye's sapphire-like charming eyes, and said sincerely: "When I was wandering as a mercenary on the mainland, I heard a lot of rumors about Mr. Kaye, Mr. Kaye not only saved this country, but you let this country make an alliance with the originally hostile demon patriarch, and the alliance with the great power Xiuner, which brought too many benefits to this country. ”

After a moment of silence, Sophia continued, "I've always wondered why you would want to be in this country? ”

"I don't really have a desire for power, and I'm in a good situation right now. The king canonized me with the status of a knight nobleman, but I was given the title of "Moon Knight". I can only salute the king, enter and leave the palace freely, and see His Majesty at any time, but I am completely free. ”

Kaye took a bite of the apple and smiled heartily.

"Apples are sweet. ”

"Well, really sweet apples. ”

"There was a restaurant near here, we went to eat first, and we were a little hungry. ”

"But, is it better to spend money like this? It's better to eat at home than to eat out. ”

Kaye was stunned for a moment, then laughed.

"It's really frugal, and you'll be a good wife in the future. ”

Sophia's face turned red instantly, and her heartbeat accelerated.

It would have been a little displeasing if someone else had said such frivolous words, but Kaye didn't feel disgusted when he said it.

The boy and girl walked like this, and after a few minutes Kaye stopped. Not far away is a two-story building, which is a restaurant with a wooden sign with knives and forks hanging in front of the building.

"This is it, the chef at this restaurant is good. ”

Kaye walked towards the restaurant, followed by Sophia.

The restaurant has a lot of customers, but there are still a few empty tables. Walking to the corner and sitting down, Kaye casually flipped through the menu.

The waiter at the restaurant, a young man, walked to the table and politely asked as Kaye put down the menu, "What do you need to eat?"

"Broth, a loaf of bread and a bottle of red wine. ”

"Okay, what about you, this beautiful young lady?"

"Give me a glass of juice and everything else. ”

"Okay, wait a minute. ”

The waiter left and walked in the direction of the kitchen.

While waiting for the waiter to bring her food, Kaye listened to the mercenary-dressed swordsman and magician at the next table boast of his glorious deeds.

Mercenaries are a very dangerous profession, and with the danger of dying at any time during the mission, many mercenaries like to brag about their obviously exaggerated deeds in their spare time.

This is the helplessness of the mercenary industry, when they brag about their deeds, they can relieve the pressure in their hearts.

The waiter came over with a tray, put down the food ordered by Sophia and Kaye respectively, and said, "Please use it slowly." Then he left.

The steaming broth from the wooden bowl whetted Kaye's appetite, and Kaye ate it with a spoonful and then a spoonful.

"Sophia, you eat too, it's delicious. ”

Kaye quickly settled the broth, swallowed the bread again, and uncorked the wine. Fill a wooden cup with a glass of red wine and take a sip.

Unlike Kaye who eats so quickly, Sophia eats very elegantly, even if she is no longer a princess, but the etiquette engraved in her bones has not been forgotten.

Sophia is very beautiful, and she looks at least seven points like her mother, which is why Kaye would recognize the wrong person in Brell Forest.

The little girls who used to be so big have grown up, and the little girl who reads quietly in the Wang family library will ask Kaye some little girls about Kaye's mercenary career experience.....

Human life is too short, and the little girl who used to be has grown up, but what has not changed is that Kaye is still the same as she was back then.

"Andrew?"

Kaye chuckled at the name.

Sophia put down the empty wooden cup of juice and smiled contentedly. Her smile was so charming that the cups in the hands of the few young people who peeked here from time to time did not notice that they had fallen.

"The waiter checks out. ”

The waiter who came over diligently quoted the price, a total of one silver coin and three copper coins. Kaye happily paid and walked out of the restaurant with Sophia.

"I almost forgot, I'm going to the tavern, how about you go with me?"

"Tavern?, Mr. Kaye, didn't you just finish drinking?"

"No matter how much I like drinking, I won't go to the tavern just after drinking. ”

"I, I didn't mean that...."

Kaye smiled, and Sophia's nervous reaction made Kaye find it a little amused.

The "Enchanting Elf" tavern wasn't far away, and Kaye and Sophia were a short walk away.

The tavern housed in the "Mercenary Guild" is still thriving today.

The tavern was noisy, with the sound of fighting wine, the sound of bragging..... For Sophia, even in the days when she was wandering as a mercenary, the tavern would only come when she was inquiring about news.

Sophia doesn't like the environment, she prefers to be quiet rather than too noisy. The big men who had drunk themselves at the table in broad daylight, and the orcs who spoke a little vulgarly, made her think that they were too rude.

After Kaye and Sophia walked into the tavern, there were dozens of eyes focused on Sophia. There are curious, some amazing, and some flirtatious whistling.

Sophia frowned, slightly displeased. I used to feel this kind of gaze when I inquired about news in the tavern, and it is a bad habit that men have for beautiful women.

The owner of the tavern, Beckham, who claimed to be a gentleman, saw Kaye approaching and quickly put down the wine glass he was wiping.

"My dear Lord Kaye, have you brought anything with me?"

"Of course. ”

Kaye took out a beautiful book from his bosom and handed it to a smiling Beckham, who got what he wanted, and Beckham smiled even more. Beckham laughed, but quickly put the book in his arms.

"If your daughter confiscates me again, I'm gone. ”

"Don't worry, I'll take it. ”

"I hope so!"

Kaye sighed, the unscrupulous middle-aged tavern owner didn't look like he had learned his lesson.

Beckham's daughter, a girl of about nineteen years old, wears a simple long skirt and a cloth headscarf, and her appearance is also very cute. Her name is Diya, and unlike her unscrupulous father, she is quite a diligent girl.

Deya is very serious and diligent, and will not complain about how hard it is, and her hard-working energy to greet guests seriously forms a strong contrast with her unserious father.

The white-haired middle-aged Albert just took a few curious glances at Sophia after she walked into the tavern, and then kept drinking. It wasn't until Kaye came over and sat down in the empty seat that he put down his glass.

"I've already drunk today, so I'll drink with you next time. ”

"She's the girl you said she was?"

"Well, it's beautiful. ”

"It's really a big beauty. ”

After a short word, he picked up the wine glass again.

"That's it? I thought you'd say more. ”

"Beauty is beauty, there's not much to say. ”

Kaye smiled wryly.

"Then you drink slowly and go Sophia. ”

"Okay Mr. Kaye. ”

Sophia replied, and followed Kaye out of the tavern. After leaving the tavern, Kaye took Sophia around again, and before she knew it, it was already night.

Time will pass before you know it, and it's not too early.

"It's this time, it's time to go back. ”

"It's not early, sorry, I forgot to go past dinner time. ”

"Don't panic, don't forget that I brought you here today to familiarize yourself with the city. ”

Kaye put his hand on the shoulder of the panicked Sophia, who was still flustered just now, instantly calmed down, and her fair face was heating up.

"Kay, Mr. Kaye, please don't do that. ”

"Sorry, rude. ”

Sensing the faux pas of his actions, Kaye apologized and withdrew his hand.

"It's not annoying, it's just a little embarrassing. ”

If someone touches their body like this, they will naturally feel annoyed, but if the subject is changed to Kaye, they will not feel annoyed.

Kaye had known him eleven years ago, and was a brother-like being, and unlike that frivolous man, he was a reliable man. Not only that, but he is also a benefactor who saved himself, and it would be rude to think that he had any bad intentions for such a person. Sophia herself doesn't think she has such charisma, so that Kaye has any bad intentions for herself.

As I walked, I was almost in the residential area, and it was completely dark.

On a slightly chilly night, the blue moon hung high in the night sky as if to show off its charming posture.

Kaye leaned against the roof, his eyes a little misty looking at the beautiful moon in the night sky. If more than 2,000 years ago, just looking at the sky would have been oppressive. The all-knowing and all-powerful Father God created the "Father God Continent" more than 2,000 years ago, and also created various races, as the residence of him and his six favorite children, the six elven kings, the "Sky Temple" Felica Temple floats high in the air that is absolutely out of reach.

The Father and the six elven kings reside in the temple of Filika, and as the highest beings, they look down on the creatures of the earth.

It was a time when God the Father ruled, the glorious "Age of God."

Kaye's eyes were foggy, and in this day and age, he could no longer witness the Great Father and his six favorite children.

The Father God, the six elven kings, and the Filica Temple, who had ruled the continent for a thousand years, had left the continent, and the age of the gods had long since ended.

Kaye often felt sorry for not being able to witness the miraculous temple of Filica that was recited in the bard's mouth.

In the distant past, although God the Father looked down on all the races of the continent, there would be no races without Him, and God the Father is the common "father" of all races on the continent.

In the moonlit backyard, Sophia's pretty figure is as seductive as the enchantress in the night. Originally, because I didn't feel sleepy, I came to the backyard to see the moon.

"The roof is better if you look at the moon. ”

Kaye's voice was a little languid, and he sat up with a smile on his lips.

Sophia was stunned for a moment, then walked under the eaves and jumped onto the roof with a slight leap.

Quietly coming to Kaye and sitting down, Sophia asked, "Mr. Kaye, don't you sleep? I wanted to see the moon, but coincidentally, you are there." ”

"The moon at night is beautiful, right? ”

Reaching out to touch the moon, which was absolutely untouchable, Kaye's tone was a little lonely.

"Sorry for the trouble. ”

"Why do you think that?"

Kaye was puzzled, looking at the moon and not noticing that Sophia's slender shoulders were shaking.

"Sophia, you are a great beauty, and I am very happy to have a great beauty like you to accompany me to see the moon. ”

With some flirtatious compliments, Sophia's face flushed.

I could feel that Kaye didn't mean anything else, but I felt incredibly relieved.

Subconsciously looked at Kaye, there was still no change as eleven years, but Sophia has changed from a little girl to a big beauty now.

The night is like a quiet girl, but the girl's heart is complicated.
