The 300 Heroes of the Manga

"Master Eleonora?"

The figure that emerged from the low bushes was Lim in short clothes carrying a wooden barrel with thick cloth and soap.

From Lim's perspective, Alan's face was pink.

"What's wrong with you? Did you catch a cold and have a fever? Your face is so red."

"It's okay. Nothing happened." Allen replied pretentiously. But the quicker movement of her hand exposed her inner panic.

Chapter Eight Pre-War Daily (1)

After that, a few days of peaceful days passed.

One day, Cao Shurui was patrolling familiarity with the palace as usual. When looking down from the second floor, Allen's figure suddenly appeared in a corner of his vision. Allen quickly shuttled between the woods and approached the city wall as if he was guarding the sight of others.

"Huh? Lord Ellen, what are you doing?" Cao Shurui asked straightly after falling through the window and catching up with Ellen.

Alan's shoulders trembling slightly, who was taken aback, turned his head. At first glance, it was Cao Shurui, and Allen was even more panicked.

Her long silver hair was tied around her neck, and her clothes were clean but unadorned linen clothes.

Although Ellen's waist is still wearing a long sword, the scabbard and hilt are wrapped in white cloth, which makes it inconspicuous.

"Master Allen, dressed as a commoner, do you want to patrol the city alone?"

"How did you see it?"

"You dress like this and still dodgy, obviously you don't want the guard to follow."

"Then you want to stop me?" As he said, Allen's face turned red from anxiety and shock, with a strange beauty.

"No, I'm Ellen-sama's guard. If I follow along, it will end."

"But your outfit is too conspicuous!"

"It's okay. The armor is taken off and hidden. The clothes I wear are ordinary. It is a trouble that I can't carry a sword. However, Lord Zhan Ji has a dragon body protection. As long as I be a good physical shield, everything will be fine." He didn't stop, and Cao Shurui was ready soon.

After that, the two walked outside the city together. The city appeared in front of him before he went far.

What you see is residential houses made of stones, with roofs mostly black or brown. The street paved with neat stone steps is very wide.

At this time, Cao Shurui had never seen a scene.

Pedestrians of all kinds walk across the street, and there are several open-air stalls lined up by the road.

Such a lively scene is like a bazaar in a previous life.

As he walked, Cao Shurui looked at it with interest. But he still had to be careful so that others wouldn't think of him as a hillbilly.

When passing by a small stall selling steamed potatoes, the aroma of the steamed potatoes aroused Cao Shurui's gluttons. The potatoes placed in a plain beaker were covered with butter that began to melt due to the heat. The sweet smell of butter mixed with the steaming heat, Cao Shurui had an appetite.

Feeling a little hungry, he paid for two, and then handed one to Allen.

Afterwards, the two walked to the nearby square and sat beside the flower bed.

Allen, who bit the potato with a small bite of cherry, showed a very delicious expression.

"You can pick steamed potatoes well. It's worthy of praise."

Cao Shurui was a little surprised when she said with a pretentious tone when she was smiling.

But he immediately replied: "Really, you just have to eat happily."

After being silent for a while, Allen said: "Gistat’s winter is sometimes so cold that people are frozen to death. At night, the cold will pass through the heavy stone walls and enter the house mercilessly. Child. They gathered in front of the burning stove, huddled together and put on blankets. Then they tasted warm milk and steamed potatoes dipped in butter to spend the winter night like this."

Listening to Alan's words, Cao Shurui seemed to have such a sight before his eyes.

Probably this was the life Allen lived before becoming a mercenary. Cao Shurui thought so after taking a bite of steamed potatoes.

"Even if you are free to patrol the city, you must be careful to be worried about by assassins. The lord is really hard to do. With a team of guards, people are scared away and they still patrol.

"Yes, that's it! That's why I ran out secretly."

"Oh, that is to say, only this kind of time can you be alone for a while as you like."

"However, you found out."

"Don't worry Ellen, I won't tell Lim about what happened today. Just keep it as a secret between you and me. After all, as a guard, I can't come out by thinking of it. And, follow you like this. Your safety can be guaranteed by your side. So next time you come out, call me too."

"Okay. Thank you, Cao Shurui." Allen turned to look at Cao Shurui, showing a very sweet smile.

Cao Shurui could swear that it was the most beautiful smile he had ever seen.

"Then, stay with me until I'm satisfied. It's quite new to walk together with two people."

After that, Cao Shurui and Allen went to various places in the city.

As they walked, the two bought snacks and tasted them.

"Is it all right to eat so much?"

"A potato eating contest was held in the city before. I ate thirty potatoes as big as steamed potatoes coated with butter just now."

Cao Shurui was speechless in the face of Ellen, who didn't mean to boast, but only explained indifferently.

Judging from her small cherry mouth and no fat body shape, this kind of thing is simply unimaginable.

However, there are some foodies in the second dimension, which is not unacceptable.

"Tell you, I don't usually eat as much as I want."

Wielding the iron skewers of fried food, Allen emphasized.

"My appetite in the palace has always been relatively modest. After all, I can't come to the city frequently. I want to eat new dishes only on this day. Although it is a little troublesome, it is necessary to understand the lives of the citizens."

"Do you think the way you have jam on your face is convincing?"

Cao Shurui took out the handkerchief and wiped Alan's cheeks according to the etiquette taught to him by the old butler.

Alan, who was startled, opened his eyes and hurriedly removed his flushed face.

"what's happenin?"

"No, no, nothing...really, I took advantage of my vigilance..."

After muttering for a long time, Allen shook his head violently as if to calm down, and looked at Cao Shurui again.

"Ah, look, your mouth is also covered with jam."
