forest kingdom

Oak Castle, a room on the floor where the maids live.

Clara had a serious face, her brows were furrowed as if she was thinking about something, and she looked towards the opposite side seriously.

"Tim, your mother is the prophet's slave girl!" Clara told Tim scornfully and solemnly.

Tim's face was full of doubts. When he looked at Clara, the doubts in his eyes quickly turned into joy and excitement. "Your mother is also a slave girl! She is also the slave girl in the master's bedroom!" Tim told Clara this with a smile. matter.

Seven-year-old Clara and eleven-year-old Tim smiled at each other and soon burst out laughing with joy.

"Hahaha!"

"Whee!"

The two girls faced each other, holding hands with their palms touching each other, jumping happily on the ground, sharing each other's joy!

There were other people in the room, including Lolita, who was lying on her side on the bed, holding her chin in one hand and chewing a radish with the other.

Lolita, who is six or seven years old, now looks like a little adult. Although she is still greedy and greedy, her little mind is spinning every day, always thinking about things that are good for herself.

Lolita was eating unpalatable radishes as if she were eating chicken legs and beef jerky, still thinking about serious things.

[My mother is the master’s slave girl, and I will also have to work in the kitchen from now on! Clara has no witchcraft or talent, so let her watch the door. 】

Lolita secretly arranged the future of her family.

Not far away, Sophie, a female swordsman from a humble background, was doing push-ups on the ground. Sweat and heat dripped from her arms and face. Her obstructive long hair was tied behind her head and fixed with a wooden hairpin. She only wore Wearing a thin vest and loose trousers.

Now the outside is covered with snow, and the doors everywhere are closed to keep warm. Going out at this time requires permission from several maids, so it is better to exercise inside the house.

Also silent is Heidi, who is drawing a new type of sowing tool that can continuously spread the seeds in the box into the ground through the rotation of gears.

The advantage of doing this is that it is easy to get the attention of the prophet. Everyone knows that the Crowfeather Prophet attaches great importance to agricultural technology and will cultivate the land himself.

Heidi soon couldn't stand the excitement of the two mindless female companions. She stood up and said, "I'm going to the ladies learning exchange meeting. Do you want to go?"

"No!" Lolita refused directly. She wanted to wait for her mother Finn to come back from Lawrence, and then discuss with her about studying, such as letting her, a good child, study in the kitchen.

Tim was already a kitchen maid and had no interest in the things he couldn't learn at school.

Clara is not usually a good child who likes to learn, so she doesn’t go either.

Sophie was also not good at that kind of thing.

Heidi soon went out on her own. In the Saintess' College, there were not only a few students like them, but also outstanding women from all over the world, including some outstanding local smart women.

These people are gathered together to impart knowledge, and families are cared for because of their efforts.

At the same time, these people are asked to go back every autumn to have contact with their families, so as to understand their mission.

It is still some time before the eternal night, and some people have not returned yet. Heidi has established the Lady Study Association, a female aristocratic organization, to recruit outstanding women, especially smart women who look decent and beautiful.

When fighting Sophia, Heidi has learned cooperation and long-term life planning, and has formulated detailed and clear goals and directions!

Twelve-year-old Heidi is no longer young, and her thoughts are very mature. She only wants to sit at Lawrence's feet and be patted on the head by Lawrence.

……

In the living room, Salil, Emma and others were holding down Andersen, who couldn't sit still, and forcibly shaved his head.

Andersen, who is almost two years old, doesn't like being forced by a group of women to do or not do anything. He just wants to run out and be free every day.

However, Salil and other women happened to have nothing to do, so they could always catch this child who was looking for trouble, and then press his head to make him a good child.

After the haircut, Andersen quickly got free time and could go back to his room to talk with the bear doll under the supervision of the maid.

After the obstructive child was gone, Salil looked at Emma.

"Emma, ​​what have you been busy with lately? I feel like you've been going down the mountain a lot these days. Have you met a good man?"

Emma said quickly and seriously: "No, the best man is right next to me. How could I pay attention to other men? It's Umu. That child is not good at studying and often makes mistakes in arithmetic."

Emma was a little worried when talking about her son, "I'm not young anymore, and I won't be able to work here for long. A young and beautiful girl will soon replace me. That kid Umu can't be a soldier or a businessman." and scholar, Fleiss was unwilling to marry his daughter to him.”

Sariel knew something about this matter. Emma used to think about getting her son Umu to marry Fleiss's daughter Gurney, but now that Fleiss has become a noble, she looks down on Emma's caretaker son.

Lawrence does not require people other than saints to die alone. Whether they are nuns in the convent or students at the saint's college, they can return to their hometown to get married.

But the price is that some duties and jobs will be relieved.

Especially here at Saintess' College, girls with boyfriends are basically assigned to serve as teachers in peripheral monasteries instead of continuing to study here.

For the church in the feudal era, women who could not dedicate their body, mind, and everything to the church had no value in continuing to cultivate.

Sariel understood Fleiss's thoughts very well, "Fles has been fighting, and his son and family will continue to fight. His daughter will definitely marry a warrior he recognizes. Emma, ​​don't worry, wait for the game When Raven’s daughter grows up, just let Umu marry her.”

Seravan's daughter was four or five years younger than Um, but in this barbaric age, it was no problem for a man to be three or four years older than a woman.

"Of course I am willing to do this, but I don't know if Seravan will refuse." Emma was very troubled by Um's matter. The janitor was indeed a good job in the past, but now it is a bit out of date.

Salil said generously: "It doesn't matter. I will tell Lawrence and ask Lawrence to help. We grew up watching Um and worked in the monastery... for several years." Salil couldn't think of it. Umu has been working for several years.

Emma felt a little more reassured.

It's not that Umu can't find a partner. Brielle and many people in Pumixiu Town are willing to introduce girls to Umu. Even Beow is willing to take care of himself, a boy from the same village.

In the early years, Pumexiu Town was eliminated by the Dark Night, and most of the children died in the chaos. Um was one of the few friends Beow knew. Although they had only a few contacts, they did know them all. , can also speak well.

However, Emma's requirements are slightly higher, and she hopes to marry a few people she knows, but these people are all people who followed Lawrence in the early years, and their status has long been different.

She also looked down upon some people with low status, such as the daughter of the Mandekru family who had a broken arm.

Emma quickly said: "I thought about it, it will be difficult for Umu to be looked down upon by those men if this continues. It just so happens that Umu and Gale know each other. I want Umu to go to the manor to learn pig raising with Gale in the winter, so that in the future There’s something else to do besides being a janitor.”

Sariel frowned, "Does Hayate raise pigs? Why don't I know about this?"

Emma said seriously: "Yes, its nose can tell which pig is sick. Navia often told me this when she was in charge of the manor. Now that Navia has settled in Pumexiu Town after getting married, the affairs of the manor have been handed over. Leave it to Boolean." "Bull also told me that with Hayate around, it would be easy for her to handle many things in the manor."

Sariel showed a curious look. She only knew from a little chat that Hayate was a very powerful dog, and Lawrence also valued this dog very much.

But Salil never knew how powerful this dog was, and subconsciously thought that this dog was just a slightly stronger and more powerful sled dog.

After chatting casually for a while, Emma went to work.

Salil still remembered the topic just now, and quickly picked up her skirt and went to find Lawrence.

In the spare room at the attic, Lawrence was using a rope hanging from the beam to exercise his arm strength. He steadily took turns holding the rope with both hands and climbed up, climbing five or six meters in just two or three seconds. high.

Soon Lawrence was holding the rope with one hand and testing his endurance with his eyes closed.

Use one hand to hang your body.

One second...three seconds...ten seconds...

After more than twenty seconds, Lawrence opened his eyes and looked at the door of the room. He quickly let go of his hand and landed smoothly on the ground.

Lawrence stretched his arms and waist, lazily expanding his body.

"Lawrence!" Salil looked at Lawrence's back with a mysterious face, and quickly walked to the opposite side of Lawrence. "What are you doing here?" Salil asked about something else.

Lawrence grabbed the rope and said, "It's okay. Just test the relationship between the height of the house and the temperature. Have you noticed that the heat is on the roof, and the ground is generally much cooler than the air."

Salil thought about it curiously, but soon stopped thinking about it and continued to talk about more interesting topics with excitement.

"Lawrence, Emma told me just now that Hayate can raise pigs!"

Lawrence was speechless and said: "I already knew that Gale is not just a dog, he is very powerful."

Salil became even more happy and praised: "Lawrence, you are so awesome, even if you raise a dog, you are so awesome!"

Lawrence was not modest, but he was very honest on this issue: "No, it was Hall who discovered Hayate. It was Hall who discovered Hayate's difference, which gave Hayate the best space to grow."

"Without Hall and his dogs, Hayate might just be a beautiful guard dog now, far from what it is now."

The reason why the wild boar is piggy is more due to Doug. Although Gale is a descendant of Doug, from the current point of view, it is Hall's appearance that has brought huge changes to Gale's life. He is the person who has the greatest influence on Gale. .

Lawrence said honestly: "There are actually very few talents that I personally discover."

Beow counts as one, Seravan counts as half, Fleiss seems to be very strong, and the rest of the Foresters and Valkyrie are more like integration than cultivation and excavation.

Salil smiled and said: "Lawrence, you don't look like you at all now!"

Lawrence is very clear about himself in Sariel's eyes, "I think I provide more of a place, just like the person who rents the land. What really makes these people and animals stand out is the environment and people."

"Forget it, this kind of thing is so boring." Lawrence picked up his coat from the side and walked downstairs, "Let's go, there is still some time before the eternal night. Let's deal with some things in the past few days."

"What's going on?" Salil followed and asked curiously: "Is there anything else that must be done? I have already sent an invitation to Olaua, and she and some women will be arriving in a few days. This winter's wine The warehouse will also be filled with candies and candies in a few days.”

Lawrence smiled and said: "Call Delen, it's time to maintain my statue. This is an important matter."

Salil quickly realized the importance and quickly went to call for help.

The Crow Feather Colossus is indeed a very serious matter. In the past few years, due to wars and road construction and shipbuilding, I have gradually forgotten about the fifty-meter Colossus.

After being reminded by Lawrence, Sariel remembered that the statue needed regular maintenance, otherwise some stone chips would easily fall off after the witchcraft on it faded.

Lawrence quickly walked downstairs and followed Finn's lead along the dim stairs into the bright living room.

After Finn saw Lawrence walking to the sofa and sitting down, he quickly took the milk tea from the maid and gave it to Lawrence who had just sat down.

Lawrence drank tea slowly while thinking about the Prophet's Colossus.

The shelf life of witchcraft products is actually very long. For example, some stone pots and stone knives can be used for a long time and can remain unchanged for sixty or seventy years.

But the Prophet's Colossus was different. It was too big and surprisingly heavy!

Just standing there would be a huge burden to the earth below, and this giant statue was not a seamless structure like stone.

The rock structure temporarily changed by witchcraft, as well as many passages that witchcraft did not take into account, are creating pressure.

At that time, this marvelous building was built on a temporary basis, but now its deterrent effect is no longer so important.

It's time to tear it down and replace it.

However, it is also a troublesome thing to dismantle. It is very laborious to dismantle this thing, and the movement will definitely not be small.

If it is not dismantled, it can only be maintained.

Or let Delen change the inside and outside of the statue into a hard boulder. After the whole body is integrated, it will not be a problem to maintain it for hundreds of years.

Just like this, the amount of work is very large, and Delen's witchcraft is obviously not enough.

Lawrence quickly looked at the dark elf aside.

"Thaddeus, have you found any new wizards at the lighthouse?"

Satis replied respectfully: "The night watchman discovered a dozen wizards. These wizards are not very powerful and have no obvious destructive power. However, because they only got the information in the tavern, they are not very clear about other aspects."

Lawrence quickly gave guidance, "Let the male dark elves open a shop near the lighthouse. You set some filtering conditions and only entertain wizards, so that you can get more information."

Satis wondered: "Master, what kind of store should I open?"

"Just take a bath, or a teahouse." Lawrence explained: "After those wizards have achieved a peaceful life here, they will inevitably have the idea of ​​​​wanting to live the good life in the past. Having a dark elf male servant is a luxury for them. The enjoyment, although luxurious, is worthy of enjoyment.”

"I need more information, and I will also protect the dark elves coming from outside! Regardless of gender!"

Satis quickly lowered her head and said, "As you command, my master." (End of this chapter)
