Chapter 269: The Future

Arthur took Sonny from Char's hand, held it in his arms and stroked it gently, Sonny also enjoyed this feeling, and was very affectionate to Arthur.

"It took a lot of effort for me to get its soul from Tanatos." Char touched the kitten's head, "As the lion of Arthur the Great, it is not famous in Hades. ”

Arthur was silent for a moment and said, "Thank you, teacher. ”

"Don't be too happy, you still have one more level to pass." Char said.

Hearing this, Arthur turned his head to look at the villa, where Alicia was standing in the doorway, her hands crossed over her chest, frowning at Arthur, the corners of her mouth were downward, and she didn't look very good.

Arthur turned his head and looked at Char with a pleading gaze.

Char, on the other hand, shrugged helplessly, "You're going to explain it to her yourself." ”

Arthur took a deep breath, and the scent of flowers around him poured into his nose.

The floral fragrance is different from the aroma of those perfumes, the strong perfume smell will have a pungent feeling, but the floral fragrance will not, it is very natural and soft.

He eased his emotions a little, and walked to the villa with Sonny on the path between the flowers, and came to Alicia's side, and tried to pull out a smile.

"Alicia."

Alicia glanced at him reproachfully, and after a moment, she breathed a sigh of relief.

He didn't reprimand him, nor did he say anything else, just spoke as usual.

"Let's eat."

As he spoke, he turned and walked in.

Arthur's nose twitched slightly.

Alicia always was, and she knew that Arthur was no longer the teenager he had been, and he didn't even know what his future would look like.

He was already a middle-aged man in his fifties, and he knew exactly what he should and should not do, and he didn't need guidance.

Therefore, although she blames in her heart, she will also respect his choice.

Arthur didn't continue the conversation, but silently followed Alicia into the castle.

"Yo! Arthur, are you feeling better? ”

Cassifer in the hearth came out of the firewood and said hello.

"You were completely dead when Char brought you in, it really scared me to death."

Although assisted by the cabinet, Arthur has been personally handling government affairs for decades.

As the ruler of a huge country with a population of more than 100 million, he has to deal with an extremely large number of government affairs, except for the necessary five hours of sleep in his life, he is actually dealing with various affairs, and he has almost no time to come here.

It's been decades since Arthur last returned to the castle, but when he returned again, nothing had changed, the same familiar people and things, and the ornaments.

The only difference is that there are more traces of time.

Arthur's eyes sparkled, he took a deep breath, and then slowly exhaled, and the air was filled with a faint floral fragrance mixed with sandalwood, just like in the past.

He softened his emotions a bit, and Arthur laughed, "Long time no see, Cassifer." ”

Cassifer watched Arthur silently, the flames swaying slightly, and continued.

"Welcome home, Arthur."

"Hmm~"

Alicia stepped forward and turned the hearth where Cassifer was sitting, turning it towards the courtyard outside.

Arthur followed Alicia out of the courtyard.

There was still a stove on the table in the courtyard, on which was a black iron plate, and around it was a pile of food on plates, but all raw.

"Didn't you cook it?" Arthur asked.

"Freshly baked and eaten." Alicia said, "I've marinated everything, it's called a sizzling barbecue, and it's the best time to eat it this season." ”

Arthur bowed, and then he looked out at the scenery outside the courtyard, it had actually been some time since Arthur and Mordred's showdown.

The castle returned to Beichen and continued their journey, now at the top of a hill called Wugong Mountain.

They were eating lunch now, but there was a twelve-hour time difference between Beichen and Britannia, so it was morning.

In that morning light, the 100,000 acres of alpine green meadows were dressed in golden costumes, and the morning light shone and the clouds were misty.

On either side of the green meadow at the top of the hill is a lazy sea of clouds like cotton candy, shimmering in the sun, and the picturesque scenery is intoxicating.

The temperature here is a little cold, but it's perfect for grilling meat around the fire.

They each sat down, and she picked up the brush on one side and dipped some oil on the baking sheet, then pasted the oil paper on, looking very skilled.

The heat is so strong that the plate is bubbling all at once, and now it's ready to be baked.

The pork belly and beef were put on the same page, and with the sizzling sound of the thin meat on the baking sheet, the rich fat came out of the meat, and with it came the smell of the meat, and all the carnivores would go crazy when they smelled it.

Then set the marinated lamb chops and chicken wings aside and bake.

Pork belly has its own fat, so you don't even need to brush the oil, one layer of fat and one layer of lean meat and one layer of fat and one layer of lean, perfect intermittent.

The pork belly is derived from a special pig breed called Tibetan fragrant pig in this country, called "ginseng pig" and "bracken nettle pig".

This is a real spring water and mountain delicacies to grow up, with a very low saturated fat content and a high unsaturated fat content. The skin is thin, the meat is delicious and plump, and it is rich in nutrients.

The local Tibetan fragrant pigs are stocked in the mountains and forests, and often eat wild medicinal materials such as cordyceps matsutake and bracken nettle (also known as ginseng fruit), so not only the meat quality is high, but even pig manure is purchased and used as Tibetan medicine.

Watching the pork belly gradually shrink and change color, even Char couldn't help but swallow his saliva, and he couldn't help but pick up a piece of meat with chopsticks and put it in his mouth.

It has a thick texture with a hint of dryness, and unlike the pork that Char used to eat, this meat has a unique aroma.

The iron plate also gave some blessings, the juice of the fat meat was tender, the lean meat was chewy, and the fat and thin were just right.

Then I picked up a piece of lettuce from the plate on one side and put it in my mouth, the pork belly is very full, and I can always feel the meat and fat released in my mouth when I stuff it into my mouth, and the freshness of the lettuce wears away a little greasy feeling and adds a little sweetness.

It seems that because of the coma for many days, Arthur is also a little hungry, and his eating appearance can be described as gobbling up.

Of course, Sonny also had a share, and Alicia prepared a large plate of fish fillets for him, which was much easier to feed after being less than that big.

Arthur looked around and asked concerningly, "What about the kid?" ”

Char didn't reply, just picked up the wine that was placed on one side and poured himself a glass.

Alicia said, "For some reason, it was entrusted to a trustworthy person. ”

Arthur also understood something, and did not continue the topic, just drank the wine that Char had poured for himself.

"Do you have any plans for the future?"

Picking up a slice of pork belly with chopsticks, Alicia asked.

Arthur paused his movements for a moment, he thought for a moment, and there was a slight confusion in his eyes.

"I used to have made it my lifelong goal to change Britannia, but now, I've done everything I have to do."

"Then find a place to rest."

Alicia raised her hand, and a piece of hard paper appeared in her hand and was handed to Arthur.

Arthur took the thing and looked at what was written on it.

"Hogwarts Staff Acceptance Letter"

He looked at Alicia, "Is it the school of magic above the sky that you talked about before?" ”

Alicia bowed, "The new semester is about to begin, and the school plans to recruit another batch of people. ”

"Sounds pretty good, but what can I teach?"

"Do you want to be a teacher?"

Arthur smiled and shook his head, "I've been a teacher enough, and teaching students is really a lot of energy. ”

Alicia frowned and thought for a moment.

"You'll have to think about it."

Char picked up a piece of mutton from the baking sheet, the mutton was taken next door to the Tibetan fragrant pig, and the marinating method was also learned locally, without adding the rest, just soaking it in water with onions, which can remove the smell and bring out the aroma of mutton.

When you bite into it, the mutton does not have any smell, and there is even a faint milky aroma, which melts in your mouth.

"It's easy for you to be the emperor with your palm." Char teased as he nibbled on lamb chops.

"But Britannia is in complete chaos right now."

"I've paved all the roads for him." Arthur muttered softly.

"He'll take care of it. A great change, a little louder, not a bad thing......"

The next chapter will be sent in the morning.
