Mountain and Forest Kingdom

The eleventh year of the new calendar has arrived, and the New Year's Day that everyone at Saintess Academy has been looking forward to has finally arrived.

Lawrence stood alone on the roof looking at the dark and bright starry sky above his head.

The dark place is mainly the world below. When you are in mountains, forests and farmland areas, you can't see your fingers. Opening your eyes is like closing your eyes, and you can't see anything.

What is bright is the world in the sky, and above the dark clouds is a mysterious green light group swimming, like the Milky Way or a giant green snake.

Under the dim light, you can see the thick clouds slowly moving thousands of meters above the ground.

Lawrence suddenly had an idea.

It's not that the sun has disappeared, it's just that we can't see it for the time being.

Standing under the sky, Lawrence had the idea of ​​​​flying up to have a look, but his feet and body were too heavy to fly up to the cold sky.

After standing for a while, Lawrence turned back to the house to warm himself.

Today's workout is almost over.

When I walked downstairs, I heard the laughter and laughter below, and the lively voices came from the various maids' rooms.

Most maids have multiple people living in one house. Most of the people who come here live a not-so-rich life and have long been accustomed to sleeping together as a family.

Even for slightly more respectable families, they are at best slightly separated, with no one person occupying the same room.

Lawrence himself often slept with others. In this era, those who slept alone were either childless widows or men who could not marry a wife.

The head maid, who usually asks these maids to keep quiet, will turn a blind eye these days. As long as she doesn't go to the floor where the master lives to make noise, it doesn't matter if she makes a little noise in the room.

New Year's Day is a holiday for most maids. Except for a few maids who work shifts, the rest of the maids can take a long break, sleep in, or take the food and rewards they received to chat, play cards, and drink with other maids.

It doesn't matter if you drink a little bit, it's just like a cocktail party for a noble lady, it's mainly about chatting.

Listening to the lively and excited chirping of warblers in the distance, Lawrence was in a very good mood.

"I can enter these rooms at any time!" After thinking this, Lawrence felt even better.

But I didn't want to interrupt the happy tea party of these horny women, there was still a lot to do today.

When they returned to the bedroom, Salil happened to be back with a bunch of stuff.

"Lawrence, I've finished sending out all the things. Jade and Sophia helped me send them out together."

This year, Lawrence no longer distributed the gifts personally. The distribution of gifts was still left to Salil, while Jade and Sophia took the initiative to help.

Jade is the dean of the Saintess Academy, and Sophia particularly wants to declare her status, so she has some motives.

Lawrence looked at the large amount of snacks and candies he had brought back. He didn't care that these foods looked exquisite to outsiders, but walked towards the warehouse.

"I'm going to feed the crows, you guys go to sleep first."

Salil didn't want to go to bed yet, "I'm going to see Green. Little Andersen always bullies his younger brother. I'm going to see if Andersen went to Green's room to snatch his toys again!"

Brotherly love and sisterly love are extremely rare in the wizard community. Most extraordinary people have a selfish nature, and it is difficult to change.

Lawrence planned to separate the two brothers in the future and enjoy a peaceful life in different territories.

They don't need to deal with any government affairs, they just need to accept supplies from outside with peace of mind.

Fortunately, judging from the current situation, most wizards and witches have little interest in things like political power. They generally do not want to take responsibility and only want to enjoy privileges and benefits.

On the contrary, this kind of character can be stabilized. The only thing Lawrence has to do is to curb the destructive desire of these wizards, and use fists and lessons to make them understand the consequences of irritating him.

Countless facts have proven that this is the best warning, more useful than any verbal reasoning.

Not only does Lawrence do this, but Saryl and Cassandra are also used to using pain to make little Andersen understand reason.

In order to prevent things like Lolita from hurting her family when she awakens her abilities, everyone will be more restrained when educating children, and they are not particularly overbearing and unreasonable.

He is also very kind to Andersen at ordinary times. When dealing with this kind of three or four-year-old child, he is mainly reasonable. He will give him some food and play things, and encourage him to obtain them through formal means.

Lawrence still planned to let Andersen go out and live alone after a few years when he was able to stand on his own. Whether he was a wizard or an ordinary male noble, he should go out and learn some skills when he was ten years old.

After finding the iron box for breeding mealworms from the stuffy warehouse, Lawrence packed some active insects in a small box and then walked to the bird room near the roof of the ring building.

The crows here have been bred for seven or eight generations. Lawrence has also controlled the crow population over the years and moved some of the crows to several other churches.

Winter will still kill some crows, but nature will take care of things, albeit slowly.

Crows are now accustomed to the proximity of humans and to accepting food provided by humans in the winter.

Lawrence gave the first crow some fresh worms to eat, and then fed some worms and wheat to the large rooster tied nearby.

The role of this big rooster is to prevent the invasion of raptors. In order to prevent these crows from being eaten by wild cats that can climb the wall or birds of prey, the big rooster is very important.

At the same time, with this mighty big rooster here, the crows will be more honest.

The crows have accepted the presence of the big rooster, and the roosters, crows, and dogs get along very well on this land.

When she entered the stairs leading from upstairs to downstairs, Satice had been waiting for a while holding a candle.

In addition to Satice, Lawrence's maid Elsabelle was also standing on the stairs with a lantern to light up.

The roof of the building where the crow was located was the outer area of ​​the building. Lawrence was escorted by the maid along the corridor on the fourth floor towards the castle.

Looking from the window to the other side of the ring building, you can see the warm-colored castle that is obviously steaming.

The height of the castle is more than ten meters higher than the ring building. I used to think that this height was about the same, but now I feel that it needs to be expanded a little more, otherwise it will not be able to accommodate more and more people.

The sunroom, fitness room, and bathroom for maids were gradually built. The five- and six-story castle was gradually running out of space, and even the place to store supplies was far from enough.

Lawrence's home was too small to accommodate the astonishing wealth plundered from outside.

After taking a few minutes to walk home, Lawrence entered the fourth floor of the castle from the fourth floor passage of the Circle Building.

The maid behind her locked the iron door to prevent outsiders from entering this supreme palace.

"Today is New Year, you should go down and rest."

"Yes, Master." Satis faithfully accepted the Master's instructions.

Aisabel also bowed respectfully.

Lawrence quickly returned to the bedroom. At this time, the whole family had gathered in Lawrence's big bedroom.

There are five or six layers of soft quilts on the ground floor of the bedroom, forming a square bed more than six meters wide.

The indoor temperature was around 30 degrees. Both Kharan and Sophia were lying on the quilt wearing only sexy underwear, while Salil was sitting cross-legged and playing chess with Delen.

Lawrence quickly sat down and chatted with his family about next year's development plan in this place that looked like a sofa and an amusement ride.

The women in the family are not only beautiful, everyone has something that can help Lawrence.

Needless to say, the abilities of Kehalan and Catherine, Salil has been in charge of many things in the castle and building, and Delen has also helped a lot over the years, and is also the martial arts teacher of the Saintess Academy.

Cassandra has always provided great assistance in government affairs. Her ability is not obvious. Others cannot feel her role. Only Lawrence understands that a person can memorize large amounts of data and information, and can quickly retrieve it from memory. , and can also provide women with high-quality computing skills to assist in government affairs.

With Cassandra, Lawrence didn't have to run to the library most of the time, nor did he have to rummage through heavy books and parchments to find things from the previous year.

Jade is in charge of the academy, Lathander is in charge of agricultural production and command, and Sophia's intelligence is often put to use, but the most important role is to protect the safety of the family and prevent strangers from approaching.

Bull was Lawrence's friend and a respected woman. Although the two parties had contact from time to time, Lawrence did not regard her as his woman.

The situation of Saint Priestess Hela and Countess Olaua is also somewhat special. Lawrence maintains a lover relationship with them, and may take it further in the future, but he has no plans to do so now.

Dana is still a guest guest, so Lawrence is not in a hurry about these things.

The women in the family can all provide ideas and opinions on some things. After getting along with each other for these years, although there are still differences in thinking in many places, they eat the same meals and do similar things, and gradually they can understand each other's thoughts, so Lawrence can and They were lying shoulder to shoulder on the bed chatting about various things. They were both able to talk and consider various possibilities.

As we chatted, the temperature in the room became hotter and hotter, the atmosphere became more and more lively, and the firewood in the fireplace not far away also made a crackling sound.

In the eleventh year of the new calendar, Lawrence's eleventh eternal night in the land of ice has arrived.

Lawrence has become accustomed to the existence of eternal night, and enjoys this comfort happily. (End of chapter)
