Don't Call Me A Succubus, I'm Really Just A Warlock!
Chapter 84 Sophia
Entering Guantes, there is not much difference from what the tavern owner said.
The flaming trees on both sides of the ten-meter-wide road are in their most dazzling season. The flaming red leaves are not only stunning, but also make people carefully avoid them when they fall on the ground, for fear of stepping on them.
A bard was singing a poem in front of him. Because of the distance, Mu En could not hear the content of the poem clearly, but the unique charm made him feel good.
Although the buildings that come into view may not look very strange, each one has its own unique features.
Soon, the tavern owner took them to his tavern.
The location here is close to the center of Ganteth, and it is also very lively nearby.
Mu En stepped out of the carriage. The owner of the tavern had opened the door of the tavern. It had not been opened for many years, so a thick layer of dust had accumulated inside. When the door was opened, the inside of the tavern instantly turned gray. Finally, the little Druid girl looked at it. If it doesn't go down, a plant will grow to absorb the dust.
When he saw the interior decoration of the tavern, for a moment Mu En thought he was back in the tavern of the Winter Fortress.
But the Winter Fortress has now turned into a bead and is being carried by him, so this is impossible.
It seems that the tavern in Winter Fortress was copied by the tavern owner according to the decoration here.
I don’t know if it’s because I’m too lazy to think of new decorations, or because such decorations have special meaning to the tavern owner.
"Let's clean up first."
Mu En walked into the utility room where the sanitary tools were kept familiarly, took out the mop and bucket, and prepared to clean the tavern.
After all, he will be staying here for a long time, and the tavern owner also wants to reopen the tavern, so hygiene and cleaning work is essential.
"I'm here to help too!" The little druid girl enthusiastically took the bucket from Mu En. She also knew where the water source of the tavern was, and jumped up and down to fetch the water.
Mu En looked at the figure of the little druid girl. He was leaning against the wall and waiting for her to come back. The tavern owner was lost in memories. Mu En thought it should be a happy memory, otherwise why would the boss's mouth be raised.
This was Shyvana's first time coming to the tavern. She walked to the counter. There were various drinks on the shelves behind the counter. Obviously the tavern owner did not put away the drinks when he left.
One of the bottles of wine caught Shyvana's eye. She stretched out her hand, opened the glass covering the surface of the shelf, and took out the rose-red wine at the back.
She opened the cap of the wine bottle, then stretched out a finger and tapped it lightly on the cap.
A drop of rose-red wine came to her fingertips. Shyvana gently licked it with the tip of her pink tongue, and then her eyes lit up.
It's sweet!
Mu En watched Shyvana finish pouring the highest degree of Rose Lover, and then her expression did not change at all. She even turned her head, looked at herself, and blinked twice.
She seemed to be saying, is there any more?
At this time, Mu En deeply realized how good Red Dragon's drinking capacity was.
If it were him, let alone one bottle, he would be drunk with just one drop.
Not long after, the Druid girl came back with a full bucket of water. Mu En also picked up the mop and started cleaning.
The tavern owner seemed to have finished his memory. He seemed to be in a better mood and joined in the cleaning operation.
...
At the gate of Gantes City, after the city guard could not find the tavern owner, he quickly asked other city guards to support him first. He left the city gate and walked in one direction.
When Mu En and the others arrived at the tavern, the city guard also arrived at the city lord's mansion.
Entering the city lord's mansion, the journey was smooth. When the city lord saw the city guards, he had a surprised expression on his face.
The city guard didn't care about etiquette. He leaned into the city lord's ear and told the city lord the news that the tavern owner had returned to Gantes.
"You actually came back? Didn't you die in Winter Fortress?"
After the city lord listened to what the city guards said, a surprised expression appeared on his face.
In the Winter Fortress, even master-level experts occasionally suffer casualties, but the tavern owner is still alive and well after so many years, and his strength still seems to be at its peak.
"Don't worry about him." The city lord said, "Come back as soon as you come back. Anyway, all the people who have a mortal enemy with him have died of old age. If he really wants to cause trouble, then the current Geantes will not be like what he was decades ago. Just like that, a ninth-level warrior like him made a big fuss."
"clear!"
Since the city lord said so, the city guards could only act according to the city lord's orders.
After the city guard left the city lord's palace, the city lord glanced into the distance and ordered the steward: "Immediately invite those nobles to a meeting and tell them that Vatelya is back."
When the butler heard the name Vatelya, his body suddenly trembled. It was hard to imagine how much fear the owner of this name had brought to him, and it was still engraved in his heart decades later.
"Understood!" The housekeeper forced himself to calm down, and he slowly walked out of the city lord's mansion. As soon as he took a step out of the city lord's mansion, the housekeeper started running straight away.
It was as if something was chasing him behind him, fearing that there would be serious consequences if he ran too slowly.
"What! Vatelya is back!"
"Vatelya, I really hope to see this former guardian of Ganteth with my own eyes, but it's a pity that it was my father's time decades ago."
"Vatelya didn't die in Winter Fortress!"
"Sorry, our family doesn't plan to get involved in matters related to Vatelya."
"..."
It was getting dark, and the housekeeper had already called all the nobles who needed to be notified.
Now the nobles who had notified earlier have arrived at the city lord's mansion, and the remaining people are also arriving one after another.
In the meeting room of the City Lord's Mansion, the housekeeper closed the door of the meeting room and stood at the door, preventing anyone from approaching.
At this time, the full moon is high, and basically all the nobles who have been notified have arrived here.
The ones who didn't come just didn't want to continue to participate in these things.
A dozen nobles sat across from each other at the round table. No one spoke. Everyone was waiting for someone to speak.
The city lord glanced at the nobles and said slowly: "Vatlya is back."
Although the nobles already knew the news when the steward went to inform them.
But when the city lord said it again, everyone's heart couldn't help but twitch.
"How many years have passed, why is he still back? Even if he was the guardian of Ganteth back then, that is already the past! The past is the past, and the present is now. Can the past be compared with the present!"
A middle-aged nobleman tapped his fingers on the table and said in a low voice, suppressing inexplicable emotions.
"Eighty-two years ago, I remember very clearly. Eighty-two years ago, Vatelya cut off one of my arms and one of my ears." A nobleman spoke. From his current appearance, his limbs There was no mutilation, but he spent a lot of money to hire an alchemist to help him regenerate his severed limbs.
"I think what we need to determine now is the purpose of Vatelya's return to Ganteth." A young nobleman knocked on the table and said that he had not experienced what happened eighty-two years ago.
"Stupid!" Many nobles cursed at the young noble, "Are you the grandson of Old Gert? I don't know why he chose you as his heir. The grudge between Vatelya and us has long been irresolvable.
Even if he goes to hell and his soul is teased by the devil, he will not forget it in his heart!
So, you know what? ! "
The young noble's face turned red and he was speechless.
"I don't think so." At this time, someone knocked on the table again. It was a noble lady who looked like she was only in her twenties.
"Time can make people forget everything. I have also heard about what happened back then. Eighty-two years have passed, how many of the parties involved in what happened back then can be remembered by Vatelya?
I think he doesn't remember any of it, it's all blurred.
For a professional as powerful as Vatelya, it would be unwise to make an enemy of him.
In this world, everything can be exchanged with equal value, and the hatred between Vatelya and you, or in other words, our grudges is the same.
What we have to do now is to resolve the conflicts and grievances between us and Vatelya, and finally, draw Vatelya back into our camp.
This is the best choice. "
The noble lady talked eloquently, but none of the nobles paid attention to her.
The other nobles looked on with cold eyes, even the noble who was scolded just now did the same.
The young noble is just naive, but the noble lady is really whimsical.
"Let's not talk about these." The city lord said, "Next, let's discuss how to deal with Vatelya."
"His name is still on the wanted notice in the North. Let's spread the news that he has returned to Ganteth and have people deal with him!" said a noble.
"Silly x." the noble lady cursed.
"You scold me?!"
"Silly x." The noble lady said again, "Can you please use your pig-like brain? What is Vatelya's strength? A ninth-level warrior! Or the top existence in the ninth level! The only person who can deal with him is Master level strongman!
Now tell me, which master will come to accept this bounty? Is the bounty on the head attracting the master class? Or is there something about Navatelya that attracts masters?
There is nothing, which master will come to accept the reward? Who among the other people who can come to collect the bounty can be Vatelya's opponent?
Do you, a group of insects with dragon blood, really think you are dragons? Bugs are bugs, no matter how many there are, they are bugs! You hope to use insects to deal with dragons, you fool! "
After saying these words, the noble lady directly aroused public anger.
One by one, the nobles shouted towards her, and the noble lady shouted back not to be outdone.
In an instant, a meeting to discuss how to deal with Vatelya's return to Ganteth turned into a performance of a noble lady fighting against the crowd alone.
No nobleman was a match for the noble lady, and everyone fell into a disadvantage.
The noble lady was in high spirits, and at this moment she felt like she was a god.
"Okay!" The city lord slapped the table heavily, and the loud noise interrupted the farce.
"That's it. This is how it ends this time."
Taking a deep breath, the city leader stood up. He clutched his heart and left the meeting room, fearing that he would not be able to accept the bad behavior of his teammates.
"Ah."
The noble lady sneered, looked around at the nobles, picked up her bag, twisted her waist and left the conference room.
After walking out of the city lord's palace, the noble lady got into her carriage, and her housekeeper was waiting on the carriage.
"Let's go." The noble lady shouted to the coachman outside, and the carriage immediately started moving.
"Madam, your friend Mrs. Lois has a letter for you." The housekeeper took out a letter from her body and handed it over.
"Lois? She hasn't come to play with me for a long time. I don't know what got her feet entangled. I think it's most unlikely to be her ex-husband."
The noble lady said casually, taking the letter handed over by the housekeeper in her right hand, and pulling on both sides of her breasts.
"If I had known I wouldn't have worn this dress, it really strangled me."
The noble lady complained that something seemed to be untied under the operation of her left hand, and the already spectacular mountains expanded a lot again.
"Ma'am, you seem to have eaten a little too much recently..."
The housekeeper was about to analyze for the noble lady why she felt uncomfortable wearing this dress, but she was immediately interrupted.
"Okay! I get it!"
The noble lady's eyes were full of resentment. It was really the worst she could do. The worst she could do was find an alchemist to get an equivalent exchange circle and trade all the fat.
The noble lady opened the letter, took out the letter paper inside, and looked at it carefully.
After a moment, she put down the letter and handed it to the housekeeper.
"Ma'am, what did Lady Lois say?"
"You can see for yourself."
The noble lady did not answer. After the housekeeper finished reading, she said: "Someone will come to visit us in the next few days, and the house needs to be tidied up."
"As long as you don't continue to bring back a lot of food, madam, you don't have to clean it up." The housekeeper stabbed the noble lady deeply.
"You just have to fight with me, right?"
The noble lady stood up angrily, "It's okay if I don't eat!!!"
She felt a little aggrieved for no reason.
"You should be like this." The housekeeper smiled.
She had grown up watching the aristocratic lady, and she already knew exactly what kind of character she had.
...
Inside the tavern.
With the help of the druid girl and the tavern owner, Mu En cleaned the tavern and made it sparkling, as if it had been renovated.
Wiping the sweat from his forehead, Mu En took out the bucket and dumped it. Then he put the cleaning tools in the utility room and washed his hands at the same time.
Shyvana sat aside and watched their cleaning leisurely.
In fact, she also wanted to join, but just when she wanted to touch the dragon flames to kill the poison, she was stopped by Mu En.
In order for Sivana not to cause trouble, Mu En took out another cake and placed it in front of her.
When leaving the town, Mu En bought a lot of cakes and stored them for emergencies.
Look, it’s in use now.
"When will it open, boss?"
Mu En also found a table and sat down, and he asked the tavern owner.
"It's time to open. There's no rush for this. I need to find the liquor supply merchants. I haven't come back for so many years. Most of these merchants have probably changed." The tavern owner thought for a while and said.
"By the way, what are you still doing here?" Mu En turned to look at the little Druid girl.
"I remember the purpose of your coming to Gantes, wasn't it to see your uncle?"
"I didn't help you clean up. I've already gone to find my uncle!" The little druid girl was so angry that she wanted to turn into a monster on the spot and bite off a piece of flesh from Mu En's body.
"Do you need us to help you find it?" The tavern owner asked kindly after seeing that the little Druid girl didn't know where her uncle was.
"Is that okay?" The little Druid girl's eyes sparkled.
"Hehe." The tavern owner smiled sheepishly, "It's a small matter."
"correct!"
Mu En patted his head and suddenly remembered something.
When Mrs. Lois knew that he was leaving the town, she told him that she had a familiar noble friend. If Moon wanted to investigate how far the Northern Council's hands were, then she could write a letter. Give it to her friend so that Mu En can visit and then integrate into the circle of the Gaantes nobles.
Mu En looked outside from the window. It was already late at night, and there was no time for a normal visit.
"It seems I can only go tomorrow morning. Don't you know where they live?"
Mu En slapped her head, feeling a little annoyed.
The tavern owner asked curiously: "What's the matter with you?"
Mu En immediately told Mrs. Lois about it.
"What is the name of Madam Lois's noble friend? Maybe I know where she lives." The tavern owner said.
Mu En recalled, "It seems to be called Sophia Landis."
"Sophia?" The tavern owner shook his head, "I don't remember any nobleman with this name, but Landis... there is only one Ganteth family with this surname, and I know where it is."
"That's okay. I'll check tomorrow and find out if it's true. If not, I can ask them." Mu En said.
The tavern owner took out a map of Guantes from nowhere, spread it on the table, and pointed out the location of the tavern where they were now, as well as the location of the Landis family.
The next day, Mu En followed the map in her mind early in the morning and walked towards the Landis family.
There were several musicians on the road who invited him to perform together, but Mu En declined their requests with a smile.
When they arrived outside the Landis family, a three-story building covering an area of more than 5,000 square meters stood inside the iron gate.
The traces of time can be clearly seen on the walls of the building.
Mu En was about to knock on the door, but someone came out the next moment.
This is a housekeeper whose age cannot be discerned. She wears a housekeeper's clothes like a sharp sword. Mu En has no doubt that the housekeeper is definitely a strong professional.
"Are you the Prince Moon mentioned in Mrs. Lois's letter? Ms. Sophia is having breakfast inside. You can come in with me."
The housekeeper led the way, and Mu En followed behind.
Walking into the building, the aisles inspired Mu En to have some road-crazy attributes, and the housekeeper was extremely familiar with this place. It seemed that she had memorized in her mind where each aisle would lead.
Finally, the housekeeper brought Mu En to the restaurant, where Ms. Sophia she mentioned was sitting at the dining table having snacks after the meal.
"Want a piece?" Sofia saw Mu En and almost understood his identity.
Sofia motioned to the maid to bring a piece of snack and placed it on an empty seat on the dining table.
Mu En sat down calmly, and the maid handed over the tableware. He also accepted it gracefully, and did not forget to thank her.
Then, Mu En cut off some cake and put it in his mouth. After tasting it for a while, he raised his eyes and looked at Sophia.
“The cream tastes a bit bad, I think it should take a little longer to stir to achieve the best taste.
The bread under the butter takes too long to bake. If the time is right, it will definitely be soft and delicious. Now, I can barely get in.
Sour fruits should not be used in bread, or this kind of fruit should not be used.
The sweetness of the butter and the rosin of the bread are all overshadowed by the sour taste. If you know what it means to overwhelm the guest, you may be able to understand what I want to express. "
At this moment, Mu En commented on this snack as if he had the tongue of God.
A prince must have the character of a prince.
From now on, everything he did was to reach the outstretched hand of the Northern Council.
Therefore, it is impossible to behave as before in front of outsiders.
Fortunately, this snack gave him a chance to show off. After eating so many cakes with Shyvana, he could be considered an experienced eater.
Sophia did not speak immediately. She looked at Mu En, her chest rising and falling, which was very spectacular.
Mu En looked straight into her eyes.
"Thank you...for the advice!" Sophia said through gritted teeth.
She stood up and left the restaurant, "I'll go to the living room to wait for you first. If you finish eating, the butler will naturally take you here."
After the housekeeper watched Sophia leave, she stood next to Mu En and whispered: "The snacks this morning were prepared by the lady herself to welcome you, His Highness, last night."
Mu En was speechless for a moment.
Ah this.
Can I say I didn't do it on purpose?
Obviously, his comment made Sophia very angry.
