Such a kitten suddenly got into the bed, and with the lightning and thunder outside, it would shiver from time to time, which made Gervais no longer willing to sleep.

Of course, his mentality at this time was also very correct, and he only had pity in his heart, and there were no other evil thoughts.

With Gervais's nudge, Adele drew closer and closer to him, and finally curled up completely in his arms.

After about half an hour, the lightning and thunder outside the window finally stopped.

Only then did Gervais pull up the quilt slightly, trying to remind Adele that she could go back to sleep.

After all, Edward lives not far away, and if he is discovered, he may not be able to break his leg.

"Adella!"

When Gervais lifted the quilt, he found that Adela, breathing evenly, had curled up in his arms and fell asleep.

"Alas! I hope Duke Edward doesn't misunderstand! ”

Gervais sighed lightly, if he had changed places, he would have slept peacefully, but in Edward's lair.

……

After a night without a word, Gervais woke up early the next morning.

first stretched his waist, and then noticed the abnormality in his arms.

"Oops! This girl is still under the covers! ”

Looking at the sun already hanging high outside, Gervais was shocked.

"Adella, wake up!"

Gervais didn't care, and directly pushed Adella's shoulder to wake her up.

"Whew!"

Adella was pushed by Gervais and suddenly woke up, and before she could react for a while, she also stretched.

"Yikes!"

But the next moment, Adella also sensed that something was wrong, and immediately screamed.

"Shhhh Let's go back! It's dawn! It wouldn't be nice if your grandfather found out!"

Gervais hurried to remind Adella!

"Oh! Good! ”

Adella nodded hurriedly and wanted to get up, but she hesitated when she lifted the quilt, because she came in a nightgown last night and had no coat.

"Let's get dressed in my clothes first!"

Seeing Adella's predicament, Gervais sighed lightly and handed her coat to Adella.

"Hmm!"

In this way, Adella blushed and got up in Gervais's coat to escape from the room.

Adella first stretched out her little head and looked left and right at the door of the guest room, and found that there was no one, so she ran all the way to her room not far away.

"Whew, I'm scared to death! It's a shame too! ”

Back in her bedroom, Adella quickly patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief.

Unbeknownst to Adella, however, at the end of the corridor outside her room, Edward was standing around the corner with a somewhat unkind expression.

"This bastard boy, he really dares to ......"

……

After Adele left, and didn't hear anything outside the door, Gervais finally relieved.

Then he dressed and washed himself, and only walked out of the room after tidying up.

As he walked out of the room, a servant came from the end of the hallway.

"Lord Gervais, breakfast is ready! Your Excellency the Duke invites you to have breakfast. ”

"Oh! Good! ”

Gervais nodded, and then followed the servant towards the dining room.

Entering the dining room, Edward was the only one sitting at the table, and Adele had not yet arrived.

"Duke Edward, morning!"

Gervais smiled and greeted Edward.

"Well, sit down!"

Edward glanced up at Gervais, nodded at him, and greeted.

"It's a little weird!"

Gervais looked at Edward's appearance and sensed that something was wrong.

Edward's expression didn't change much, but the look at him had a complicated look.

However, Gervais didn't think much about the smell of breakfast, and when he sat down, he began to feast.

"Gervais, that hellfire wine of yours is very good!"

After Gervais had finished eating, Edward suddenly spoke to him.

"Hehe, thank you Duke Edward for the compliment, I still have a bucket there, if Duke Edward likes it, I will let people move in together when the time comes!"

Gervais didn't care, thinking that Edward really liked the Hellfire Drink.

After all, with a constitution like theirs, drinking wine is to enjoy the sweet taste, while strong wine can get a strong enough sense of stimulation.

"Hmmm! One barrel is a little less, but if you brew it again, send ten barrels every month! I'll give it to my subordinates to taste it, too! ”

“……”

"What's wrong? Is it too much? ”

Edward didn't pay any attention to Gervais's confused look, but seeing that Gervais didn't answer, he asked.

"Uh...... No, I'll have it brewed and someone will send it when the time comes! ”

Gervais replied.

In his heart, he complained about how Edward's temperament changed dramatically overnight.

It seemed natural for him to send ten barrels of wine a month, but Gervais remembered that Edward had not been like that in the past.

Ten barrels of wine cost only a hundred gold coins at most, which was not a problem at all for the multimillionaire Gervais, and the most important thing was that Edward's natural tone made him puzzled.

"Hmm!"

Edward nodded in satisfaction when he heard Gervais's answer.

After a pause, he swallowed the roast in his mouth and continued.

"How's your elven queen's wife doing?"

"Alice?"

Gervais glanced strangely at Edward across from him, but replied anyway.

"It's not bad, the elves have already occupied a city, and their location should be in the westernmost place, adjacent to the orcs! If you want to converge, you will have to wait for the next stage! ”

"Oh! Although the elves are small in number and inferior to humans in siege, they are extraordinary in combat when they are in the wild! ”

Edward nodded, and then the conversation changed again.

"Gervais heard that you have taken out thousands of magic potions in the City of Hope, so do you have any extra potions now?"

"And some more!"

Gervais couldn't keep up with Edward's pace, but he told the truth.

"Oh, very good, I'm old now, in case I'm not by Adella's side in the future, she has no one to protect her when she is bullied, you give me hundreds of spiritual power potions!"

"I'm going to give Adella a legion of magicians like you did last time!"

"As for the title knight, I'm not worried, I have quite a few under my hands! Coupled with the Wizard Legion, I won't have to worry about Adela in the future! ”

“……”

Gervais froze for a moment, before the piece of meat that had just been handed to his mouth could be stuffed in.

It was as if Gervais had discovered that Edward had really changed today.

First of all, he said that the hell fire wine was forgotten, and as soon as the conversation changed, he began to ask him for the potion.

From Edward's tone, Gervais naturally heard that this was to be given for free, not that Edward would pay him after sending it over.

"What's wrong? Aren't there so many potions now? If you don't have so much, you can delay it for a month or two! But hurry up, the growth period of the mage is much slower than that of our title knight. ”

Edward's expression became serious this time, although he did not face Gervais, but Gervais always felt a chill lingering in his back.

"Yes! I'll send it back later! ”

Edward's character is still trustworthy, and he will never take advantage of his granddaughter's name.

So, since it was for Adella, Gervais agreed.

Anyway, the cost of ten potions is only 10,000 gold coins, and it is just about 500,000 gold coins to protect Adella.

For Adella's safety, 500,000 gold coins are still worth it!
