Chapter 32: Time of Peace

Faced with the abundance of fresh ingredients in the square, Alan was troubled - he was not good at cooking. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info when he was single, there were meals provided by the college, and the days of living with Christine have always been Christine taking care of his three meals, one day he wanted to try to make a roast turkey, but in the end he brought out a plate of black charcoal-like things... Thinking of this, Alan couldn't help but miss Christine again.

Crete cautiously counted the amount of food for the three people, although it was a holiday, he still did not intend to be overly extravagant, after all, the three of them were now considered to have zero income, and the remaining gold coins had to be spent sparingly before finding the next job.

"Alan, what a coincidence!" Dolan was the first to spot Eren in the crowd. First, it was due to his keen intuition, and secondly, there were very few people wearing knight's armor on the streets. The sound of knight boots stepping through the long street is unique.

Standing in front of the vegetable stall, Alan was frowning when he heard someone calling, so he followed the voice and said, "Ah, Dolan, long time no see, are you alone?"

"How is that possible, and me, Lord Lilia!" Lilia said mischievously as she sat on top of Dolan's head.

"Oh, it looks like everybody's out, hey, Crete, Minos!" Alan raised his hand to greet the two men not far away, but the sharp pain in his joints made him grin for a while.

"Alan, do you have any injuries on your body?" Minos noticed Alan's painful look, and with a wave of his hand, three pale green translucent balls of light instantly floated out of the staff and covered Alan's body, and after a flicker, Eren obviously felt that the omnipresent pain on his body was instantly alleviated a lot.

"Yo Minos, your healing skills have become much stronger, and your progress is so fast!" Alan said with a look of surprise as he turned his arm.

"No, it's the effect of this medium-grade staff, let me tell you, how else to say that equipment is very important, with the bonus of this medium-grade staff Angel's Staff, my healing effect is straight after that of a middle-grade priest!

Minos, who was chattering, stopped abruptly, and it turned out that Dolan couldn't help it, and dragged a bundle of carrots from the stall on the side and stuffed it into Minos's mouth.

Crete sighed and said: "Although Minos's words can't be wrong, but we can't just rely on equipment to improve our abilities, we still have to work hard, Dolan, how long has it been since you practiced assassination? Minos, I don't say that you know it yourself, as for myself, I haven't been able to care about improving my magic power, the three of us have been stagnant for a long time, how much effort did we waste last time we fought a mid-level knight? Now that Eren has advanced to a mid-level knight, what about us? Are you two willing to accept the status quo?"

"Well, well, the master is right, you all listen well. Lilia appeared on Crete's shoulder again at some point, and nodded with her arm in her arms.

"And you, Lilia, haven't practiced your own spiritual power for so long, although you don't understand the power system of your goblin clan, but I think any strength needs to be constantly honed to improve yourself. Perseverance, perseverance!" Crete from his pocket

"Yes, master, I know it's wrong..." Lilia appeared on Dolan's head again in despair, kneeling on top of Dolan's head like a student being trained. But he immediately reacted, "Eh, master, you're too much!!, you're actually teaching me a lesson!"

"Ahh

"Ah, no, yes, guys, it's been a long time, let's meet at the Red Oak Tavern tonight, I'll have a drink tonight" Alan thought that he would be alone when he went back at night, so he simply found a place to chat with everyone, and he had agreed with Laxa to repay the losses caused by the last fight, so he agreed with everyone there.

"Okay, yes, I heard that the Red Oak Tavern is open for business during the New Year's holiday, and this is the first of its kind in Delta Town. Dolan immediately came to his senses again, and before the others could answer, he answered.

"By the way, isn't Alan going home for the New Year?" asked Crete, concerned.

"Well, I applied to stay in school, so this year's Chinese New Year will be spent alone. Alan said with an embarrassed smile.

"That's right, we're also homeless, why don't we spend the New Year together at the Red Oak Tavern this year," Crete smiled and patted Allen's shoulder armor.

"Long live Lord Crete!" Dolan almost jumped to his feet in excitement, drawing sideways glances from the passers-by.

After breaking up with the three Crete, Alan immediately returned to the school building of the Knight Branch, took off his armor, and changed into a simple casual clothes, but in order to show his identity, Alan still hung the knight's sword on his waist, after all, the Red Oak Tavern is also a place where dragons and snakes are mixed, and there is this training weapon issued by the Guardian Academy to show his identity, which can still make some adventurers with bad intentions retreat. But thinking of this, Alan also smiled bitterly, he is not a rich master, and most of the adventurers who hit him with the idea are blind.

Before leaving, Alan carefully took off the six-pointed star badge on the rescue armor and put it on himself.

Chrissy, I don't know if you're on the front line, but you're okay...

Alan sighed, turned and walked out of the dormitory・・・・・・

Red Oak's decision to open for business during the New Year was undoubtedly wise, and adventurers who had nowhere to stay chose to come here to spend these comfortable and indulgent days, and the brawl between Allen and Borat saved many adventurers from prison due to Laksha's deliberate protection, so Red Oak's popularity skyrocketed in just a few months, becoming more lively. Laxia's shrewd mind is on full display here, in the original area, Laxia annexed several neighboring stores, expanded the Red Oak Tavern, and renovated it, the grade is much higher than the original, but the consumption in the store is still maintained at the original price, not only that, but there is also a special area in the store, there is a special person responsible for the high-priced purchase of materials and treasures in the hands of adventurers, which makes adventurers even more happy.

Half a year later, when Alan stepped into the Red Oak again, he was amazed by what was in the tavern.

The original dilapidated tables and chairs in the store have been replaced with brand new wooden tables and chairs, and the whole place has been wiped spotlessly, the hall is no longer cramped and crowded, it has become spacious and bright, and there is even a special dance floor in the center of the hall, where several bewitching dancers are scratching their heads, and there are drunk adventurers who willingly throw a lot of gold coins at the dancers' feet, in exchange for the dancers' smiles.

As soon as Alan found a quiet and spacious seat, the three Cretan trio dressed in new costumes also stepped into the tavern, and like Alan, the three of them were shocked by the new Red Oak Tavern, and looked around, and soon saw Alan waving to them.

The bartender in front of the bar was still Orlando that Alan was familiar with, but since he had broken up with Sura, Alan didn't know how to face Sura's brother, so he threw the money to Dolan and asked him to order, and soon, the round table was full of all kinds of snacks, and there was a whole barrel of cool and sweet wine on the table, just knocking on the lid and there was a refreshing aroma wafting out, this wine must be worth a lot of money. Crete repeatedly blamed Dolan for not knowing restraint and being too wasteful, but Dolan bluntly said that this was a gift from the tavern, and all customers who chose to spend the New Year here would receive a free barrel of wine from the Lamondo estate worth 100 gold coins at each table, and the wines produced by the Lamondo winery were fruity and wonderful, with the longest aftertaste.

From tonight to the day after tomorrow, the time of one day and two nights is the most anticipated time of the year, people who have been busy for a year can finally breathe a sigh of relief and enjoy this comfortable time, in fact, not only humans, many sub-races and monsters will treat themselves during this time, and the dragon clan has chosen these days as the day to worship the dragon god. During this time, the guardians of the front line can also breathe a sigh of relief, because during this time, the dragon clan will definitely not choose to attack.

The continent of Athla is once again in a brief but peaceful peace.

Lilia threw herself on the table and was taken aback, and before the rest of the people could move their knives and forks, a whole roast turkey had been wiped out, Dolan and Minos were really surprised, how could such a little goblin hold such a big turkey in his belly, Crete sipped his wine while seriously looking at the colorless magic book left to him by the old mage, and Alan gently stroked the six-pointed star badge in his hand, silently reciting Christine's name in his heart, and prayed silently for her・・・・・・

・・・・・・

At the same time.

Meteors burning with milky white flame tails suddenly appeared in the sky above the Oracle City, lighting up the night sky, and then, bursts of loud and soothing chant sounds sounded, and a huge golden gate suddenly appeared in the deep night sky, and the legendary Heavenly Gate appeared in the human world again, and the Heavenly Gate was opened, and a milky white holy light fell from the sky like water, pouring into the Oracle City.

On the hundredth day after the collapse of the Wall of Miracles, at the beginning of the New Year, the God of Creation, who had been silent for too long, woke up again.

Miracles have struck again!
