Chapter 239: The Garden of Eden

Lothar's chef is a Saracen and he makes dishes that suit Lothar's taste. Diaphragm

At the very least, it's much more palatable than Western European chefs who are good at making "swan pies" and "bird pies" that seem interesting but are actually dark dishes.

In the former, the chef will insert the head, wings, and feathers of the swan back into the pie after making the swan meat into a pie, creating a lifelike feeling.

In the latter, live birds are sealed in pies and cut open with a knife when eaten.

The bird flapps its wings and flies out, leaving a pile of residue in the pie.

Of course, it is likely that this kind of pie will be distributed to the poor after the banquet to show the benevolence of the nobles - as well as the bread plates used by the nobles, which are soaked in soup and cannot be used, they will also be distributed to the poor.

The Franks of this era often used bread as a cutlery because it was too hard and would choke when eaten dry, and it could be used as a plate to soak in soup, and when the food was too late, the bread was soaked soft.

At the end of the meal, the chef brings a tray of three desserts: egg tarts, apple pie, and soft bread with butter and milk. Diaphragm

It's quite extravagant.

The reason why the nobles of the Holy Land were more extravagant in personal pleasure than their counterparts on the continent was that they were able to enjoy cheaper spices.

For example, the Gauls loved saffron for ten minutes, which is more expensive than gold, but its origin is in Sassanid Persia.

Distance factor.

The saffron that leads to the Holy Land is far cheaper than when it is transported across the Mediterranean to the European continent.

The spices consumed by Lothar for a barbecue meal were already consumed by a duke-level nobleman in the European continent, during a feast.

Moreover, even if it is a big noble, if it is just a family banquet, except for the factors of "showing off" and "showing strength", it is rare to eat so luxuriously. Diaphragm

For example, when Lothar was in AllgΓ€u, although there were two sets of silver cutlery at home, they were often only kept in the pantry unless they were inviting guests and holding banquets.

Probably because she is not familiar with everyone and can't let go, Cellynina's movements are very reserved when she eats.

But the speed of eating is still fast.

It can be seen that her meal is not small, and she is a person who can compete with Jeanne and Hans.

It's just that it looks a lot better when eating.

In the end, it is from an aristocratic family, the "Di" of the Apennines, the "von" of the Germanic nobility and the "De" of the Gauls, all of which are exclusive characteristics of the nobility and represent "from".

Cellinina's full name: Cellinina di Basilicata, proving that she was a member of the Basilicata family, which is the place name of the Two Sicilies. Diaphragm

After meals.

And they dispersed.

In the courtyard, deep in the depths of the corridor.

Cellina didn't know where to go for a while, and looked blankly at the moon in the sky, which seemed to be indistinguishable from the world of her hometown.

I can't tell if I'm in another world.

Her ears twitched suddenly.

Behind him, there was the sound of small footsteps. Diaphragm

Lothar spoke, "Miss Cellinina, are you still used to being here?" ”

Cellina turned her head and bowed slightly, "Good night, my lord." Everyone was very welcoming, nothing unaccustomed. ”

"I don't have to be so polite. Suddenly coming to a new world, surrounded by strangers, if you don't feel comfortable, it's normal, and I didn't adapt to it at first. ”

Chelinina said solemnly: "What I said is true, my relatives and friends almost all died in the recent turmoil, that world, for me, there is nothing to be nostalgic for, on the contrary, before you summoned me, I was facing the pursuit of the killers sent by the 'wolf lord'. ”

"I should thank you for saving me from danger."

Lothar felt that she should comfort her, but from her calm expression, Lothar did not see any emotions such as sadness.

The atmosphere was a little stiff. Diaphragm

Cellina took out the tin box, flicked her index finger lightly, and lifted the lid of the box: "Thank you for finding the cookie box for me, do you want one?" ”

Lothar excused herself, "It still doesn't have to..."

"Hmm-"

A strawberry-flavored chocolate bar is stuffed into your mouth.

The action is swift.

Even if it hasn't been upgraded, the agility of the base is close to fifty points, which is still not comparable to Lothar, and it may be able to barely keep up after the Blood Fall.

Celinina said in a calm tone: "My lord, I can tell if you are really refusing or being polite. "Ahh

Lothar chewed the biscuit quickly, swallowed it, and said, "Your judgment is sharp, and it tastes good. Now, let me take you to your roomβ€”you may choose a new one yourself, there are many unused rooms in this mansion, but they may not be fully furnished, and I will instruct the servants to replace them for you. ”

The reason for the incompleteness is to be blamed on Zahn.

When he evacuated, he took almost everything he could take with him.

Lothar was also too lazy to spend money on repurchases, and he was not willing to invest much in personal enjoyment other than "food".

Cellina shook her head and said, "No, my lord, I don't pay attention to thatβ€”I used to be trained so hard that I could fall asleep quickly, even in the stables." ”

Lothar bowed slightly: "Okay."

On the left-hand side, the third room is your room, and I am in the courtyard, and I go straight down the corridor, and the first room I see is mine. Diaphragm

Feel free to contact me or Jeanne if you have any questions - she is not very reliable in her words, but she is actually a very enthusiastic girl. ”

Cellynina fell silent.

The famous Shine Knight, who is regarded as the nemesis of evil, is actually a warm-hearted girl, and this sentence will definitely be regarded by her people as the biggest joke in the world.

She originally thought that this would be a female knight with an unsmiling and majestic face.

She bent her knees again to show her gratitude: "I will, thank you for your hospitality, and at the same time, please convey my thanks to you on my behalf." ”

"You're welcome."

Watching Cellinina leave, his eyes lingering on the girl's back, fluffy gray tail β€” swaying with his steps as he walked. Diaphragm

It makes people feel the urge to get their hands on it and touch it.

"Hey, is it pretty?"

At some point, the voice that appeared next to Lothar startled him.

Look back.

Jeanne was sitting on the railing in the courtyard corridor.

She carried a bottle of mulled wine mixed with spices in her hand and rested her elbows on her knees.

Seeing Lothar's view, she put down the wine bottle and made a very exaggerated semicircular gesture: "It's very big, no worse than Miss Praruo, and it's also a beast-eared girl." "Ahh

Lothar was annoyed: "I'm just looking at the tail!" ”

She had two blush on her cheeks, and she smiled and said, "That's really blind." ”

She tilted her head sideways and looked at Lothar: "No, it's not that I didn't have no vision, when I first came, I didn't enjoy such treatment, my lord, you had a premeditated plan?" ”

Lothar said expressionlessly: "You think too much, Cellinina, she is just a little girl, in terms of age, she is less than a fraction of yours, and she has just suffered a great misfortune. ”

"Indeed, the destruction of the family and the tragic hunting and killing really make people want to love it."

Jeanne thought deeply about this: "Don't worry, I will give her more care, so that she can feel that we... Speaking of which, what should our small group be called? ”

"Transjordan Mutual Aid Committee?" Diaphragm

"Hebron Transcendent Society?"

"Anomaly Creature Mutual Aid Group?"

"Yesterday's Megaship?"

She said several names in a row.

Lothar frowned, thought for a moment, and said, "If you have to choose a name, it might be better to call it Yin Dianyuan." ”

"Not bad!"

"He is worthy of being the Sun King, and his skill in choosing a name is far better than mine." Diaphragm

Jeanne gave a thumbs up, changed her words, and said, "Then the question is, my lord, who is your Eve?" ”

Legend has it that Yindian Garden was a paradise created by God and that Adam and Eve lived together.

Lothar suddenly lost interest in continuing the conversation.

"Or is it everybody?"

Lothar's pace quickened.

"What greed!"

Jeanne raised her voice, her voice full of laughter: "But it's nothing, it depends on when you can muster up the courage, I don't care." "Ahh

"But the other ladies may mind this kind of greedy behavior."

Seeing Lothar look like the back of a deserted escape.

Jeanne picked up the bottle with some pride and took a sip: "Alas, I'm old, I really should drink more supplements,"

This bottle of wine is a hot drink with spices.

In this era, spices were considered valuable in addition to improving the taste of food caused by poor cooking methods.

It is also because spices are considered a tonic.

… Diaphragm

When I got back to my room.

Pranya is wearing a white linen short-sleeved shirt, and her white arms are sticking out of the loose opening, holding a pen and writing.

Fringira sat a little bored, with her hands on her cheeks, and when she saw Lothar, she was still a little sullen.

"What's wrong?"

She puffed up and said, "I'm so bored. ”

Lothar was a little surprised: "Haven't you been busy researching potions lately?" ”

Lothar specially prepared an empty alchemy laboratory for her, far away from the mansion, and even if there was an explosion, it would not cause much damage. Diaphragm

"It's boring."

She folded her legs, and her long white hair hung down on the side of her cheeks: "You have been idle recently, and you don't want to accompany me." ”

"I have to practice martial arts during the day and meditate at night."

Although exercising now, if you can improve your attribute points, you may not be able to improve it once every half a month.

But Lothar didn't slack off.

Studying with Hans every day was very helpful for Lothar to improve her swordsmanship and reflexes.

He didn't want to be useless without the power of the system. Diaphragm

"Anyway, it's just boring, and if it goes on like this, I want to sleep until next year."

Lothar frowned, thought for a moment, and said, "Do you want to be friends with Cellynina?" ”

"Huh?"

Fringira was a little puzzled: "Why? ”

"You can get delicious cookies - you are also equal, you are both princesses of your own race, and racial prejudice aside, I think you may be able to get along."

Fringira was not interested: "Don't be kidding, it's already very boring to have a stupid big guy like this, and that little girl from the wolf clan looks similar to her." ”

Prajna put down the pen. Diaphragm

Fringilla was taken aback: "What are you going to do?" ”

If she didn't have a chance, she went to bring a basin of water to wash herself.

"You see, she's such a boring person."

"Go ahead and give it a try, Frynn."

Lothar said solemnly: "Actually, you and Jeanne are also very compatible, don't you, make more friends, life may become a lot more interesting." ”

Fringilla was silent for a moment.

Snorted lightly: "To put it bluntly, don't you still have time to accompany me, boring, boring, where do I need friends like that?" "Ahh

Bang.

Push the door and go out.

A grumpy and sensitive little girl who felt neglected was walking in the hallway.

The door was suddenly opened.

It's not a coincidence.

She came to Cellynina's door.

"What's the matter?" Diaphragm

"No, just hanging out."

The two looked at each other and fell silent.

The atmosphere was a little awkward.

After a long time, Cellinina was the first to break the deadlock: "That..."

"Would you like to come and sit with me?"

Fringira raised her eyebrows and snorted softly, remembering what Lothar had said before, and wanted to refuse.

But then, Cellinina's fingers were heard flicking open the tin box. Diaphragm

"Please eat."

Frigila looked at Cellynina's serious expression and snorted softly, feeling a little unimposing, so she snorted again.

"Since you have been graciously invited, if I don't go, it seems that it will be too shameful for you."

"After all, I'm the princess of the Tepes... Not! ”

The sweetness spreads on the tip of the tongue.

She munched on a chocolate bar.

Cellina said expressionlessly, "Come in, there's more." "Ahh

...

Lothar's room.

When Prajna comes back from washing, set aside the towel and basin of water.

"If Flynn isn't here, would you like to come and get close to me?"

Rare unsolicited invitations.

To Lothar's surprise, it was the first time since that night's trip to the bottom of the sea that Pranya had taken such initiative.

His heartbeat was a little strong, and he forced himself to calm down: "You say, how to get close?" "Ahh

"How do you want to get close?"

The corners of her mouth curled: "Flynn doesn't know when she will be back, what do you think is appropriate?" ”

She stretched out her palm as white as jade: "I'm good for you." ”

…

Three days later, in the early morning.

Lothar prepared his carriage and horses, and was ready to return to Hebron with a detachment of hussars.

It was closer to Jerusalem, and Lothar planned to take the time to meet Baldwin IV, and let Hans return to continue to take his place in charge of the Royal Knights. Diaphragm

The Queen Mother's hand was stretched too long, and he planned to go back to shock Xiaoxiao.

In addition, Hebron was the core of his domain, and he intended to be resident there, not the port of Ella.

Before leaving, Lothar summoned a few of the knights of the edict he had left behind.

"Fabio, the situation in Port Ella is very stable, as a guard officer, you just need to develop step by step."

"If you can't make up your mind, you can send more people to communicate with Coors."

Fabio used to be the steward of Asuka Manor, and he is also a rare domestic talent under Lothar's hands, which can be evaluated as: talented, but not much.

But Coors is in Philorn, not far from Port Ella. Diaphragm

Fabio said respectfully, "My lord, I understand, please rest assured. ”

"Ulm, the duties of the Border Inspector are very important, and the port of Ella is in the border zone, so you must not slack off."

Ulm also nodded respectfully and said, "My lord, I will keep my duty in mind. ”

"Muller, the trade of Port Ayla depends on you, and you have to worry about expanding the number of falconers."

Mueller hurriedly said, "My lord, I will definitely do it." ”

"Then I'll go."

Smack

The whip was raised, and the convoy drove away.
