Looking at the silver glittering elven curtain, Li Ellie's mind was full of treasure chests full of jewels.

The bedroom door opened and closed, and the duke, who was wearing only a bath towel, dripped, with the ends of his wet hair.

He 'casually' glanced at his wife in a pink nightdress on the bed.

Li Ellie has a book in her hand, but the book is upside down.

The Duke was satisfied, and quickly dried his hair, "I thought, shouldn't we 'settle the score'?" ”

If it was usual, Li Aili would have been full of alert value a long time ago, and her hairs would stand on end.

And now......

Li Aili nodded absentmindedly, "...... Ah, well, that's what you said. ”

Duke: "......?" ”

Li Aili jerked down the book, got out of the bed, and grabbed the duke's hand, "Honey, how many treasures did you say?" ”

Duke: "......" The corner of his forehead slowly squeezed out a 'ten'.

"Shouldn't we talk about your 'debt' before that?" The Duke asked with a smile on his face.

If a lady's mind isn't filled with treasure chests, she should be aware that her husband is trying very hard to revive the ambiguity.

"Ah...... Yes, yes, debt...... But the thought of all that money that I turned away makes my heart hurt so much that I can't breathe! ”

That's right, although she loves money, Li Aili, who can carry it clearly, rejected the large amount of wealth.

Although, I don't know why the bigwigs of the 'Lawless Land' were fooled and lame by her family's honest melons, but the paper can't hold the fire.

In case one day, those outlaws discover the truth, Li Ali does not want to pay for the greed for money, and receives 'special care' from the Assassins' Guild every day.

Damn it!! But it's so distressing!!

The duke, whose hand was already stretched out to his wife's long golden hair, was suddenly 'convulsed' and rolled all over the bed.

“……”

The Duke observed for 10 minutes, and finally decided that he should not think of 'settling accounts' until his wife had completely forgotten about this 'pouring wealth'.

So, the duke lifted the quilt with a blank face and lay down with his back to his wife.

Go to bed!

……

Li Ellie felt that the Duke had become strange lately.

Before, Arthur would always wait for her to wake up before he got up.

Now, as soon as Li Aili opened her eyes, there was no one around.

Probably too busy?

Not...... I feel distressed, so much money, isn't it good to take this money to develop and expand the Emerald City?

No, ill-gotten gains, ill-gotten gains, ill-gotten gains cannot be wanted!

Li Aili thought silently three times in her heart, and in a blink of an eye, she forgot about her husband's recent 'early departure and late return'.

……

It was just dawn, but on the activated plant training ground, the self-disciplined knights were already sweating like rain.

One by one, the 'tin cans' constantly changed their offensive and defensive formations, and under the command of the commander, they launched a charge against the huge activated plants.

I saw that the huge watermelon vine waved like a giant python naga-like vine, and the bronze knight who formed a siege formation was directly whipped a few meters away by the 'whip'.

The way they flew out upside down, they couldn't tell that this was a group of heavily armored knights weighing hundreds of pounds.

The Silver Knights were still able to defend in place, and they supported the 'Silver Shield' one by one.

From a distance, it looks like a silver 'shell' that is only clasped to the ground.

Those who can successfully break through are all knights above the silver rank.

The Golden Knight stepped on the 'fluttering' vine and galloped along the vine, approaching the thatched watermelon.

Looking at the 'little bugs' on his vines, Watermelon felt that he had never been so aggrieved.

"Worthy of the Knight Captain Reims! This damn watermelon seems to be shaking! Behind him, a silver knight struggling to support his shield shouted.

Lance: "Something is wrong. ”

This watermelon is not only shaking, it seems to be still ...... Swell?

"Well, why do I think this watermelon is angry? Look, is there something like a green tendon jumping in it? Captain Locke, who was watching the battle from the outside, hesitated.

The elven alchemist who developed the 'Grumpy Watermelon' said, "Your Excellency, because the watermelon is a new variety, we don't know its attack methods yet. ”

"Is it my delusion? I think this watermelon is about to explode. ”

Gas, fried, ...... 'Fried' in the literal sense of the word.

As soon as the words fell, there was a loud "boom", and the watermelon was like a giant bomb, and it exploded into pieces.

Fortunately, more than a dozen golden knights used the space gate in time, so they were not affected by the explosion.

And the silver knight, who was supported by a shield in place, was directly buried by the red melon flesh.

By the time he crawled out of the thick layer of watermelon, the Dark Mithril armor had become 'red armor'.

"Hiss......"

"Reims, the challenge failed." Chief Knight Leo shouted gloatingly.

"Hey, call all the mounts, don't waste the watermelons on the ground."

Soon, many griffons who heard the whistle circled and descended, and they did not dislike the watermelon pulp all over the ground, and plunged headlong into the 'sea of watermelons', and devoured it in a big gulp.

Behind him, the knight in charge of recording silently wiped the watermelon juice that had been splashed on the small blackboard.

Then it reads: [Team Reims -1].

Just then, the Duke came to the training ground.

Originally, this scene was not surprising.

But since His Royal Highness the Duke remarried his wife, everyone has not seen him appear on the training ground before 9 o'clock.

Of course, this is not to say that His Highness has slackened.

As the only orthodox dragon knight today, even if His Excellency the Duke does not have a dragon, even if His Excellency the Duke does not practice in the morning, he can still beat all the knights here with one finger.

On the field, the married knight secretly exchanged a look.

As a person who has come over, they know too well what the reason is to interrupt the greasy crookedness of the little couple.

This must be a quarrel with Madame!

Similarly, as a mature man, everyone understands better that at this time, it is necessary to save face for His Royal Highness.

So, the knights who discovered this 'little secret' tacitly did not ask their Highness why he appeared at the training ground at this time.

"Your Highness, do you want to try it? This is a new variety, and we haven't figured out a way to pick the watermelon safely. ”

Hearing this, the Duke looked coldly at the 'giant watermelon' the size of a thatched hut in the 'Green Ocean'.

With a 'poof' sound, His Excellency the Duke drew his sword.

"I'll limit my rank to the silver tier."

The knights looked at each other, and the silver knights couldn't get close to the watermelon, was that possible?

Once again, it turns out that the reason why their duke is a duke is that he has done what they could not do.

The knights charged, being whipped alive by the watermelon vines.

The Duke charged, chopping the watermelon vines to pieces.

Of course, His Highness limited his strength, otherwise, he would go down with a sword, let alone watermelons, and the ground of the training ground would have to split 'cracks'.

His Royal Highness the Duke cut the watermelon vine into pieces, and the knights exclaimed.

His Royal Highness the Duke slashed Guati with a sword, and the knights applauded the seals.

His Royal Highness the Duke did not put away his sword, but swept away all the 'giant plants' in the training ground in one go.

Unmarried knight: "......" hiss, who provoked His Highness.

Married Knight: "......"

This went on for a month.

Every day, everyone welcomes His Royal Highness the Duke, who has a darker face.

Until...... Platinum Knight Edward Martin found the Duke and said with a hint of 'resentment' on his expression: "Your Highness, I know that 'popularization' is very important, but please forgive me, I haven't seen my wife for a month. ”

“…… The Duchess dragged her directly to live in the office of the town hall. ”

Duke: "......"

The duke immediately 'turned cloudy', and a sword cut off the last piece of oats, and as soon as the long sword was collected, "Let's go, go to the town hall." ”

Edward hurriedly followed into the space door.

When the door of the space closed, the knights, who had been guilty of a month's crimes, gathered together and muttered, "Great, I don't have to pretend to fight with my wife and hand the ladder to His Highness." ”

"Yes! This month...... Why are we unlucky? Hell, who can understand...... I'm a golden knight who is trained every day, and I can't wait to crawl back......"

"May the two Highnesses never quarrel again."

Everyone glanced at each other and said in unison: "May the two highnesses never quarrel again!" (End of chapter)
