The Swordsman of Faerûn

Chapter 214 The Cook's Dream

"Look! Look! Look at my poor inn. It took two generations of my grandfather and father to build it up, and it's just ruined! Those damn bastards, they ruined it! My inn! They must pay the price"

Ainuwen looked at the ruins once known as the "Golden Horn" with a solemn face, and let out a deep sigh of sulk. The shopkeeper beside him, Dalton's endless cursing and complaining, made him even more bored.

The old Dick's house was only accidentally smashed by Yasuna, and the murderer couldn't see anything useful except for his large size.But the one at the inn is different. It is completely the product of two "behemoths" fighting in close combat. Looking at the broken planks, messy mud pits, and the smell of low-quality distiller's grains all over the floor, Ai Niuwen can imagine You can see how fierce those two "monsters" are.

Legendary powerhouses are actually just a form of power. Becoming a legendary powerhouse does not necessarily mean that they are powerful in combat. It just means that they are qualified to become saints, not to mention that saints are not invincible.Although there are many priests who are also powerful fighters or mages, Ainuwen is definitely not one of them. He is better at making plans or intrigues. He will be a good lord and official, but he will never be a fearless fighter.

"Shut up, Delton."

The other party was a group of very troublesome guys. This was the first conclusion Ainuwen got after inspecting the ruins. He turned his head and interrupted the spitting and complaining Delton: "Tell me about how those people fought."

What happened to the battle?There is nothing to say, but an angry old man beats a disobedient woman.Beating up a woman was a scene Delton himself played out every few days.But the woman who was beaten was really exciting, Nako was big enough, her ass was straight enough, especially her skin was whiter than freshly milked milk.Delton decided to wait for this matter to pass, and he had to beat up his mother-in-law Ruth as well, and went to relieve his anger by the way, saying that his mother-in-law was also in good shape.

But Delton will not be honest, saying that his inn was only affected by some people's family civil war. He tried his best to describe the cruelty of the "dog man and woman", including their "vicious" companions. Even the cat and insect that Misha'er always hugged was described as an evil and ferocious little black-backed warg—a small wolf species, although it was only the size of a dirt dog, it was stronger than other large wolves. Cruel, greedy, and even more terrifying.

"Delton, are you sure you're not talking about demons that came out of the abyss? Is there really such a group of scary adventurers with their families in the world?!" "The behavior scoffed.

Delton touched his big nose with a sullen expression, and said a little embarrassedly: "This? Of course they are terrible demons, but those guys who demolished my inn are more terrifying than demons in my heart." people hate."

Ainuwen pretended to snort coldly and said: "It's very inappropriate to use this kind of rhetoric in front of a clergyman, Delton. This time I pretend I didn't hear your insulting words. But I'm curious, those people are fighting among themselves What is the reason?" The pastor was very interested in the "infighting" of William's family.

Delton scratched his messy hair humbly, and a few large flakes of skin floated down: "I don't know about this, but Ruth was there at the time, so Ruth might know something." A lighted stone house in the distance shouted hoarsely, "Ruth! Ruth! Come here quickly, Mr. Ainuwen has something to ask you! Come on! Want to get punched?"

The cook Ruth was still wearing the shabby linen dress and the apron with the pouch. She gently kissed the forehead of her son who was sleeping soundly on the bed, took out the ancient coin she got from William, and looked at it. , hesitated for a while with a complicated expression, but stuffed it back into the pouch on the apron.To be honest, what happened that night shocked the poor cook too much. She had never seen such a "sturdy" woman. Broken, hundreds of pounds of distiller's barrels were tossed around like children's toys.
Everyone has a dream of a hero in their hearts, and the cook Ruth is no exception. Just like other children, she likes to sneak into pubs or streets since she was a child, to listen to adventurers and troubadours tell the wonderful heroic epics. , looking forward to one day, like those legendary heroes, using the long sword and shield in her hand to forge her own legend.Even now that she is married and has a husband who is not gentle, in addition to hard work every day, she also has to be punched by her husband every now and then, Ruth's dream still has not disappeared, but it is hidden in her heart, buried deep in her heart. Deeper.

When Delton's yelling sounded, Ruth's body couldn't help trembling, and even the son on the bed was awakened. The boy rubbed his sleepy eyes and muttered: "Mom, what happened? Is it those terrible things?" The person is back again?" Speaking of which, the scene in the first half of the night scared the poor child enough.

Ruth smiled reluctantly at her son, hugged her son and kissed his forehead again, and said softly: "It's okay! Those people haven't come back. Go to sleep and everything will be fine tomorrow." She took out the The ancient magic gold coin on his body was stuffed into his son's hand, "This is left for you by mother, please keep it safe." Then the cook Ruth took off the cook's outfit on the boy's surprised eyes, And under the bed somehow tossed out a locked wooden box.

Ruth opened the box with a key that was almost rusting, took out a set of dusty leather armor and tights, put it on skillfully, and tied a finger-wide belt around her waist , and then magically took out a whole set of daggers, rapiers, hand crossbows, and other small bits and pieces from the box, and finally a dark ragged cloak.Under the dull eyes of the boy, his mother has changed suddenly, from an honest cook to a legendary female warrior, which is really surprising.

Cook, oh no, it should be said that the female warrior Ruth turned her head and smiled at her stunned son: "Oh, I haven't worn it for a long time, and it feels a little tight. Son, sleep well, mom is going out I'll be back soon." Ruth added in her heart, "If I can come back".After speaking, Ruth strode out without looking back.

Seeing Ruth approaching from a distance, Delton, who had been waiting impatiently for a long time, rushed forward angrily, waving his fists and shouting: "You poor woman, you want to get punched, don't you? What are you doing so slow! I won't give you much in the future." Jimmy talks about all that crap, you...why are you dressed like this?"

Ruth dodged close to Delton's arms like a civet cat, and pushed her knees hard against her husband's crotch. Delton immediately snorted, his eyes rolled and twitched. Ruth hugged her husband's head and leaned over and said softly : "This is a little lesson for you! Humph, I'm going to leave for a while, my dear! Remember, you are not allowed to touch other bi-chis during the time when my mother is away."
