Bart and Norman didn't expect that Claire would use the two of them as an excuse to look at each other, and they both saw helplessness in each other's eyes.

As a very responsible mercenary, it is not easy for the two of them to reveal the details of the employment contract with Claire, long before the outbreak of this war, they have signed a long-term contract with Claire, in other words, Claire wants them to participate in the war without additional charge.

Otherwise, both of them wouldn't have followed Claire to Ferrol Valley.

It's just that there is no need to tell these insiders to the others present, which not only hurts Claire's face, but also damages the credibility of the two of them as mercenaries.

Immediately, the two of them quickly responded perfunctorily and casually, as if they really needed to sign a new employment agreement with Claire.

Norman's high-level professional strength, in fact, many barons of the Overwatch League know that as early as the previous banquet, everyone had seen Norman, and now when they heard that Norman was going to make a move, everyone was happy, but they didn't want to pay.

No matter who takes the money from their trouser pocket, they will not be happy, and this has been the case throughout the ages.

To Claire's surprise, the first person who promised to sponsor him some military expenses was none other than the knight of Feiren, the lord of Montelon City.

Faeron didn't have so many concerns, the money Claire asked for was actually not much, and this money, if it was replaced by Mohr, he would also give it. After all, in exchange for a high-level professional to shoot on the battlefield, Claire really doesn't ask for much money.

Money and victory on the battlefield, Fallon undoubtedly values victory.

This kind of thing, if one person relaxes, the rest of the things become simpler. After Fallon took the lead, Fred thought for a moment, and after glancing at Bert, he said that he would also sponsor one.

As for the last remaining Baron Les, he did not say a word, did not say the slightest.

Claire was very satisfied with this result, and to be honest, the idea of asking for money was just his temporary idea, not the goal, just in line with the principle of coming and going, just give it a try.

Outside the window, I don't know when it has snowed, and when everyone leaves the room, Claire sees snowflakes falling in the sky.

It's snow again, Claire's eyes narrowed slightly, good guy, it snows as soon as he comes, maybe he is a little similar to a certain singer in Lanxing, but that singer will rain wherever he goes, he is stronger than him, and it snows wherever he goes.

Since it was snowing, Claire was not in a hurry, but took time to rest for a few days.

Now, there are only a few days left before the New Year, whether it is the transfer of troops or the transportation of logistics materials, it will take a certain amount of time, and it just happened to spend the New Year in the city of Monselen.

Claire doesn't have any habits of celebrating the New Year, and in his previous life, there was no New Year's in the Empire, even if it was his birthday, it was often his mentor who remembered it better than him.

It's just that now that I'm in this world, there is a strong New Year's tradition here, which is very similar to a certain country of Blue Star, but it gives Claire a sense of familiarity.

In this case, Claire also followed the customs, in addition to sending a messenger to Tilling Town to tell Wade to gather an army, she was to accompany little Lorilyn every day and make her happy.

Claire's mentality has also changed a little when it comes to dealing with Lynn.

Anyway, Claire has been a human being for two lives, and the age of life in Blue Star is already equal to the life of an ordinary person, and she has experienced life and death, and her mind is extremely firm.

Lin is just a child, although she doesn't know what the other party likes about herself, but there is nothing wrong with a child, a girl's paper love.

Others have left their hometowns to follow themselves for their own sake, and now they are spending the New Year in a different place without their family company, Claire naturally can't ignore it.

To put it bluntly, Lin is just a child, even if she is not a child who loves herself and runs away with her, she should take care of it.

So, Claire gave Lynn a gift, a special magical artifact, a necklace.

The necklace itself is nothing special, it is made by Claire with jewelry and special magic crystals, and the function is that it can support a small magic shield, with Claire's magic level, the magic creations made today are more than enough to deal with the attacks of low-level professionals.

It's not that Claire is very strong, but the energy of that magic crystal is really extraordinary, and Claire also happened to buy it at the market in Montseron City, and spent a lot of money.

It's just that this money, in exchange for little Lori's happy smile and excited kiss, Claire thinks it's worth it.

In addition to little Lori, Claire also prepared gifts for others. Of course, other people's gifts are naturally not as valuable as Rin's, just to show a heart.

Rao was like this, and Wade, who was halfway through the journey and turned back to Tilling, complained much less after receiving Claire's gift, and was happy for several days.

What he received was a beautiful scabbard, specially made by Claire in Montelon City, and the shape was very good-looking.

Wade grew up with Claire since childhood, and the number of times he received New Year's gifts from each other is really a handful, even if he pulls his fingers, he can count the limited number of times, and the gifts are really nothing new, a dinar's gold coin, only Claire's shot.

However, Wade has never said anything since he was a child, after all, although Claire is not from a civilian background, her father died early, and her family background is not much different from that of a civilian born with him, and even Wade is better. After all, when he was a child, he still had his parents to help him, and Claire could only be alone even during the Chinese New Year.

Fortunately, Fred has been very conscientious since he was a child, and will often take Claire to play, and take care of him in life, so that Claire will not experience the warmth and coldness of life when she was a child and starve to death on the streets.

It's just that now, Claire, who looked the worst at the beginning, has become the best one among the three who seems to be the best at the moment, and her fate is indeed a little embarrassing.

Not only did Wade think so, but Fred, who spent the New Year with Claire, couldn't help but be stunned when he received Claire's gift, and he couldn't help but think of a warm current flowing through his heart when he was a child.

Claire herself doesn't feel anything, although there are also fragments of childhood in memory, but Claire doesn't have any sense of substitution at all, he has a complete life himself, and for other people's lives, it feels like watching a story.

Even now, when she is alone in the dead of night, Claire does not have a strong sense of substitution for this world. After all, this was not the familiar environment he remembered, and the familiar relatives and friends were nowhere to be seen.

This kind of emo-like thought is like a flash of inspiration for Claire, and he is often left behind. If you come to it, you will be safe, and it is useless to think so much.

Thanks to Fred, the New Year's Eve banquet in Montelon City was still very rich, and it was the best meal in Claire's identity memory.

In a mixture of laughter and bargaining, Claire's first New Year in this world has passed.
