Chapter Seventy-Two: After the Fact
Stepping into the early morning sun, Yard walked into the City Lord's Mansion.
He was holding a large bag of breakfast in his hand, which contained all of Levi's favorite food.
As for the chefs who make these breakfasts, they are all cooks under Loto before.
After coming to Baiyinling, Levi went to Luo Tuo every morning to eat, these cooks were already familiar with his tastes, and after changing the city lord, they didn't need to be familiar with the run-in, and they could directly cook according to Levi's preferences.
Yard brought a new wooden sword with him today, using heavier wood than before, and wrapping it in an iron sheet.
Only by training with this weapon can you enter the three stars faster and more steadily.
After entering the three-star team, the training of knights will not be able to play as well as before.
Three-star knights, who are already serious and can fight with polluted monsters, ordinary wooden swords are like tickling on the body, and more powerful weapons must be used to have the meaning of training.
At the rate at which Levi was progressing, Yard felt that he might be able to see his own adult enter the fourth star within a year or two.
The thought of this made him a little happy.
With a happy mood, Yard went straight to Levi's study.
At this time of the day, Levi had already washed up and was in the study to take care of his business.
As a result, when he opened the door today, he found that there was no one in the house.
There was a hint of surprise in Yard's eyes, and then he frowned.
Is something wrong?
It's impossible, there is Lilith in the City Lord's Mansion, how can there be a problem?
Yard was a little nervous and hurried to Levi's bedroom.
As soon as he walked to the door, before he could knock, the door of the room suddenly opened.
Under Yard's surprised gaze, Levi walked out with a low air pressure.
Unlike the clean and tidy appearance on weekdays, today's Levi has a little messy hair, simple pajamas on his body, and a little dark circles under his eyes.
"Your Excellency?"
Yard tentatively spoke.
Hearing the voice, Levi paused and looked at him.
Seeing Yard, the corners of his mouth twitched reluctantly.
"Yard......"
"My lord, what's wrong with you, are you alright?"
Yard panicked.
This is the first time he has seen Levi like this.
When he was expelled from the royal capital and issued a silver collar, he had never seen Li Wei so lost.
Under his worried gaze, Levi silently raised his head.
"Yard, I'm useless."
"Not only was he crushed by his strength, but he also lost his innocence ......"
"The saddest thing is that I still had the will to resist at the beginning, but when I got to the back, I sank into it."
"I don't deserve to stand here anymore."
"After a while, you go and pack up your things, let's leave the silver collar, find a small place to retire, fencing every day, fishing, and the rest of our lives."
As he spoke, he swayed and was about to leave.
Yade hurriedly grabbed him: "No, my lord, what the hell is going on?" β
"It's unbearable, it's unbearable."
Levi waved his hand again and again, turning his head away.
Yard was a little numb.
Just then, a door opened not far away.
Thea, dressed in the black uniform of the Witch Executive Directorate, walked out of the room.
Like the staff, witches also have uniforms, a black military-like style, with a black skirt and boots on the lower body.
On weekdays, Xiya has always worn pants, but today she changed into a skirt, so that Yard almost didn't recognize who it was for a while.
Seeing Xiya, Levi shuddered.
Thea came over with a smile.
"Good morning, sir, did you sleep well last night?"
Levi looked at him with grief and indignation.
Looking at Levi's appearance, Thea couldn't help but laugh.
Then, as if she was walking too fast, something hurt, and she frowned slightly.
Under Levi's somewhat nervous gaze, she leaned over and put it to Levi's earβ
"Your Excellency, you don't want Lilith to know what happened last night, do you?"
Levi: "? β
He couldn't help but have a kind of sun...... The day is in the mood of the fox.
Isn't this kind of line used by male characters, when will female characters be able to use it?
As if hearing movement outside, Lilith opened the door and poked her little head out.
Levi ...... What's wrong, did something happen? β
Seeing Levi's not-so-good face, Lilith asked.
Levi hurriedly shook his head: "No, no, nothing happened!" β
Lilith blinked, looked at Thea next to Levi, showed a relieved expression, and closed the door again.
Levi: "......"
Looking at Xiya, who was standing beside him and looking at him with a smile, he was in a bit complicated.
Without colored glasses, I can say in my conscience that Xiya is good-looking and strong, and she can get up with her, which is a blessing for several lifetimes.
It's just that he felt a strong sense of guilt at the thought of sitting on the roof with Lilith before, talking to each other, and then committing this betrayal.
When Lilith came out just now, he didn't dare to look directly.
After a few seconds of silence, he sighed.
"I'm going to wash my face...... If you are rubbing rice, you are also ready to prepare, let's eat together later. β
Although it was forced, it was a bit shameless to take advantage of the party no matter what I said, and at this time, it would be a bit shameless to put on a victim's face and pretend to keep a distance.
Hearing Levi's words, Xiya was slightly stunned, revealing a somewhat surprised gaze.
Then, she raised the corners of her mouth.
"Good~"
β¦β¦β¦β¦
β¦β¦
After breakfast, Levi and his party came to the backyard of the City Lord's Mansion.
Compared to his original residence, the backyard of the City Lord's Mansion was much larger, and it was more open to practice.
On the field, Levi held the wooden sword that was much heavier than before in both hands, and looked at Yard from a distance.
A few seconds later, the two of them moved at the same time, rushing towards each other, crackling in the middle of the courtyard.
Lilith sat on the sidelines, and the book she had been reading was resting quietly on her lap.
Today's Levi is very strange.
It's like...... It's like hiding from yourself.
Did you do anything to make him unhappy?
Lilith thought about it for a moment, but didn't notice anything strange about her behavior.
Shaking her head slightly, she opened the book in her hand.
Thea sat on the side, looking at Lilith quietly and smiling.
After about an hour of combat training, Yard raised his hand and signaled it was over.
Walking up to Levi's side, he had a strange look in his eyes.
Li Wei's physical fitness suddenly skyrocketed compared to a few days ago.
Could it be that the witch Daia is so powerful, adults suck her once, and suck others several times?
Yard scratched his head, a little incomprehensible.
Lilith used to bring Levi a wet towel to wipe his sweat, and Levi was about to get it, but his movements paused.
The next second, Levi hurriedly pretended to be casual and took the towel.
ββ¦β¦ Thank you. β
He nodded at Lilith.
Lilith tilted her head, giving her a somewhat strange look.
Then he smiled slightly: "Hmm." β
Levi's face flushed slightly.
Lilith's flawless face, showing such a smile, is really a bit lethal.
Wiping his sweat, Levi took out his pocket watch and looked at the time.
It's almost time for the man he has asked to come.
Sure enough, a short time later, a maid came to the courtyard and said something to Yard.
Yard walked over.
"My lord, the Witch of Thunder is here."
