Chapter 166: Killed Again?
Because of Thomas's confidence in speaking, coupled with the note stamped with Gervais's mark, Thomas and the others did not wait too long at the gate of the castle, and the guard in charge of reporting quickly returned to the gate, and then entered the castle with Thomas and his party.
"You're Thomas? Now a butler to Baron Gervais? ”
Thomas and the others, led by the guards, had already settled the carriage. At the moment, only Yura and Johnny were following behind Thomas with their things, and the three were taken by the servants to the gate of the inner fort, where Lina was waiting for them.
"Yes, Miss Lina, I am Thomas, and I have become the steward of the Golden Citadel because of the love of Lord Gervais."
Lina didn't know Thomas, but Thomas knew the beautiful and capable Miss Lina, who was the personal maid of Lord Earl, and there was a world of difference in status from Thomas's servants.
"Yes, I didn't disgrace Rose Castle, you can call me Lina Butler now, Lord Count has appointed me as the Butler of Rose Castle!"
As she spoke, Lina glanced at the two people behind Thomas, although they were wearing linen shirts, they were very clean, and they were not sloppy, so she turned around and said to the three of Thomas.
"Come on, Lord Earl is free now!"
……
The three of them turned left and right in the castle and followed Lina for a long time, and finally they were taken to the open-air balcony on the third floor of the castle, where Gervais had the audacity to tease Alice.
"I've seen the Earl!"
"The villain has seen Lord Earl!"
After being taken to the balcony, the three of them saw that Alice was standing on the edge of the fence, looking down on the whole of Winterfell, and her hair was constantly fluttering under the evening breeze.
Thomas is now Gervais's butler, so there is no need to kneel, but Yura and Johnny are the valets, and Alice is also counted as their mistress and needs to kneel and salute.
"Get up."
"Is there anything Gervais has sent you to me?"
Hearing the voices of the three of them, Alice withdrew her gaze, turned around and sat down on the soft chair next to her, and then asked Thomas without hurrying.
Although Alice's tone was not serious, she could not hear joy or anger, which was the words and deeds of the superiors.
A few people didn't dare to raise their heads to look at Alice, so they could only lower their heads, but fortunately, with Gervais, the count's husband, supporting them, several people were quite calm in their hearts.
"My lord, it was Lord Gervais who asked the little people to send you something to taste!"
Thomas, as a butler who had also worked as a valet at Rose Castle, was accustomed to the tone of the superiors, and immediately answered Alice's questions smoothly.
"Is it the ice cream you sold in the East End Plaza that afternoon?"
Alice's tone remained steady, and although it was a rhetorical question, it seemed to be narrating, not asking.
"Yes, my lord, in addition to ice cream, there are also 20 catties of monster meat!"
Thomas was not surprised that Alice knew about the afternoon square, but when he heard Alice take the initiative to mention it, he was a little worried, and quickly replied.
"Oh? And Warcraft meat? Storm wolf meat? ”
Alice was stunned for a moment, and actually sent Warcraft meat again, although I don't know why Gervais sent Warcraft meat one after another, but Alice still has a trace of joy.
Of course, Alice was not glad that Gervais had given her a gift, but that she had been free from the snow hare's torment for several days.
"My lord, it's not the meat of the storm wolf, listening to Lord Gervais, this seems to be a kind of monster meat called a three-color deer!"
Thomas relaxed a little, because Alice's joy Thomas could hear it, although it was only slightly mixed, but it didn't matter.
Whether Alice is happy with Gervais giving her a gift, or happy with Warcraft meat, it means that she will not be punished by the Earl for this afternoon's period, after all, although the Earl will not blame Gervais for this afternoon's incident, but if the anger is transferred to them, it will be wronged.
Hearing the three words of the three-colored deer, Alice was surprised and immediately asked, "The three-colored deer?" You...... Gervais killed another monster? ”
Actually, what Alice wants to ask is: Don't you tell me that Gervais killed another monster? However, if you ask like this, you will look down on Gervais, so Alice immediately changed the way of asking.
Although the way of questioning has changed, the doubts in Alice's mind have not changed, could it be that Gervais's Storm Collar is a nest of monsters? Why is there a monster at two ends in three days for Gervais to encounter.
And after encountering it, he was killed by Gervais, how difficult it is to kill a demonic beast, Alice knows, especially a magical beast with a large range of spells like the three-colored deer, Gervais is only a low-level bronze knight, I'm afraid that even the spell released by the three-colored deer can't be dodged, right?
"Yes, my lord! Just the day before we set off, Lord Gervais hunted this three-colored deer monster, and ordered the villain to bring 40 catties of monster meat, 20 catties to Baron Gandalf, and another 20 catties to you! ”
"How many people did you lose in hunting these three-colored deer? Are there any other title knights to help? ”
Alice was sure that Thomas would not dare to lie in front of her, so she did not question the authenticity of Gervais who had hunted a three-colored deer again, but was only a little curious about how Gervais killed the three-colored deer.
"Lord Hui, there were no casualties, Lord Gervais brought 14 guards that day, and when he came back, all of them were unharmed! As for the Title Knight, there is no Title Knight under your hands! However, the adults invented a very powerful weapon, and this three-colored deer seems to have been seriously injured by that weapon. ”
Thomas, of course, didn't know how Gervais hunted the three-colored deer, so he could only answer Alice what he knew.
And Thomas didn't tell Alice about the unicorn, after all, the Earl didn't ask, and Thomas wouldn't talk much.
"No casualties? A powerful weapon? ”
Alice was thoughtful, but since there was a reasonable explanation, Alice didn't ask more about this matter, after all, Gervais was kind enough to send things, and it would be too much if he was like interrogating a prisoner.
As for the powerful weapons mentioned by Thomas, Alice was going to wait for Gervais to come to Rose Castle in person to ask about it, after all, she was also quite curious about weapons that could hurt Warcraft.
"Is there ice cream in that clay pot?"
"Yes, my lord, this is an ice cream made by Lord Gervais himself."
Thomas quickly replied, and took the small clay pot from Yura's hand, and respectfully handed it to Alice.
"Oh, then I'll try it!"
Alice didn't look forward to the ice cream, and when Lina reported to her in the afternoon, she knew it was ice.
Ice cubes are rare for the little nobles, but there are many of them in her Rose Castle Ice Cellar, which you can taste every day if you want to eat them, cold beer, cold juice, crushed ice mixed fruit, and the chefs in the castle will make it.
Hearing Alice's words, Lina immediately took the small clay pot in Thomas's hand, then opened the sealed clay pot, took the delicate porcelain bowl and silver spoon and began to scoop it up.
