Arad's Sword

Chapter 38
Fina escaped from the Witch's Mansion, not to mention Alice, both of them are very familiar with the route to the Witch's Mansion.Although the winner of this duel has not yet been determined, once the girls reached a consensus, they did not guard against each other, but just rushed at full speed silently.

Soon, the shadow of the Witch's Mansion appeared in front of my eyes.

The other party broke the white crow magic circle without a sound. Along the way, Alice had prepared for the worst. exists, and works fairly well.

Midi didn't destroy the magic circle, but just found a way to pass through the magic circle, so she went in smoothly.

What is that guy trying to do?
Alice couldn't help frowning, but then, a smell of beef and potatoes wafted over.

The Witch of the Mist was stunned, and her mind went blank for a moment.

Immediately afterwards, she immediately remembered one thing - she hadn't eaten anything since last night.

No supper, no dessert, not even a sip of water, I fought hungry all night, and I missed the breakfast time!

All her energy was concentrated on the battle before, and the black-haired girl hadn't noticed anything yet, but now, the smell of this food has completely mobilized her appetite.

Alice swallowed calmly, then quickly rushed forward, rushed into the hall, and then turned directly into the kitchen.

The black-haired boy was wearing an apron, looking after a pot of beef soup that had been simmering for a long time.

Sigmund was carefully baking bread in the oven, while Lilian was peeling fruit.

The steam rising from the pot made the kitchen look steamy, while weapons such as lightsabers, hand cannons, and knuckles had long been casually left in the corner of the hall in the distance.

It's an everyday scene devoid of any tension.

How did these guys pass through the White Crow Circle?
How did you find the fruit and bread you hid in the cellar?

Where did the fresh beef come from? I don’t remember that the elves contributed to it?

What kind of trick is this ridiculous play house-like thing?Could it be that the guy named Midi thought that this would impress him?

It's just ridiculous!

In just a few seconds, countless thoughts, hypotheses, and inferences had passed through Alice's mind, but even so, she still couldn't find the answer, so she could only stand there blankly, staring blankly. .

However, Fina was already rude. The red-haired girl bypassed the motionless Alice, walked to the center of the kitchen, and then clapped her hands vigorously: "Midi, let's eat, I'm starving to death!"

"It will be fine soon." Midi smiled slightly, and nodded to Alice again.

With this action, it seems that Midi is the owner of this witch's mansion, and she is making arrangements to entertain the guests who just entered the door at the moment.In the eyes of the Mist Witch, a trace of uncontrollable anger suddenly flashed, coupled with the teasing smell of food and the hungry stomach, this anger quickly rose.

"We brought the buffalo, the bread and fruit are yours, we did the tidying and cooking, and the kitchen is yours. It should be fair for everyone to share, right?" Alice had already expected the possible reaction. , Midi stepped forward, pulled out a chair, and made a gesture of please.

Alice's first reaction was of course to refuse, but before she could speak, her stomach growled.

The long sound of "goo" spread throughout the kitchen in an instant.

The black-haired girl's neck, which was like white jade, instantly turned red, and the redness continued to rise, covering her cheeks and ears, and rising to the top of her forehead, making Alice's pretty little face into a cute one. red apples.

Sigmund and Lilian lowered their heads knowingly.

Fina couldn't hold back a "poof" laugh, and then immediately turned her eyes to look at the wall with deep and melancholy eyes.

Midi just smiled and made a gesture of asking to sit down again.

This time, Alice sat down heavily directly.

If she refused again, wouldn't it appear that the Witch of the Mist was so scared that she didn't even dare to eat in front of these intruders and ran away?The girl's pride never allowed her to back down. Moreover, every floor, every window, and every corner of this witch's mansion was completely controlled by Alice, so there was no need to worry about any tricks.

Soon, the pot of steaming beef soup was served on the table, with side dishes and bread.

The well-stewed beef is rolling in the thick hot soup, the yellow-orange potatoes are already tasty, the bright red tomatoes are even more appetizing, and the deliciously toasted bread is added, not to mention four for the heads-up. Girls who have been promoted even in an hour, this is a fatal temptation even for Midi and others.

There was no conversation at all, and Fina was the first to bury her head and start eating. The red-haired girl still maintained the impeccable and elegant etiquette of the nobleman, but this etiquette contained a ferocity like a storm.

Alice, who kept looking at her opponent, got two pieces of information.First, the food was indeed not poisoned, and second, the beef was probably delicious.

Besides, when you're hungry, anything you can eat is delicious.

Alice finally let go of her reserve, picked up the spoon, and took a sip of the beef soup lightly.

And another sip, and another sip, and another sip...

The crispy bread is also good.

Stewed beef?necessary.

In the blink of an eye, Alice has transformed into a second Fina, elegant but more ferocious.

I hope that my sincerity can be conveyed to her heart through this food.Midi silently looked at the black-haired girl who was sipping soup, biting bread, and eating meat, and said so expectantly in her heart.

The real owner of the forest and the four intruders just gathered at the same table, devouring the meal without any dispute or hostility.

It didn't take long for the pot to bottom out, the bread basket quickly emptied, and the number of fruits used after meals was also decreasing.In the end, there were only satisfied eyes and sighs full of happiness.

"Then, let's continue with what we didn't finish just now." Alice wiped her lips gracefully with a napkin, and then glanced at Fina.

The meaning expressed in that look is naturally to continue the one-on-one fight that has not yet been decided.

"Wait!" Midi hurried forward to stop her.

The black-haired girl tried to resist, but unfortunately, she accidentally ate a little too much just now, so her actions and reactions became much slower, and she couldn't make an effective response at all, so she could only sit back on the chair again.However, the anger revealed in those black eyes continued unabated.

"Can't you listen to me a little bit?" Midi asked with a wry smile.

"Before I listen to you, I need to make sure of a few things." Alice glanced at the black-haired boy, showing a cold and charming smile, "In retrospect, you deliberately gave me and the red-haired boy Did you give me a hint? If you hadn’t exposed my physical strength problem and given the redhead a hint, the heads-up match would have ended long ago, wouldn’t it?”

"Exactly." Midi nodded readily.

As the Mist Witch said, in order to protect both of them at the same time, Midi revealed the advantages and disadvantages of the two of them. In this way, the two parties who have been reminded will naturally fight more cautiously, and attack The effect will also be greatly reduced.

Although it was just a simple sentence, it played a very good buffering role.

It is precisely because of this that Midi, who attaches great importance to both sides, can let go of a hanging heart, go hunting and stew with peace of mind, and then wait for them to come back with a smile.

As for being pointed out now, Midi doesn't mind at all.

"Hmph, pretending to be smart." Alice commented coldly, and then asked, "Then, how did you break the White Crow Magic Circle?"

"Robin just told me where the keyhole is." Midi replied, looking at the wooden box in the corner of the kitchen.

Due to being too noisy, the crow was eventually treated in captivity.

"Robin? It doesn't know the real keyhole location." The Witch of the Mist gave Midi a blank look, "Do you think I will let that stupid bird who can't teach me the defense of the Witch's Mansion know?" Is it?"

"But I can go through that trap and reverse it to find where the real keyhole is."

"Even so, the unlocking time is too short."

"That's because I have this." Midi finally replied, and then, in front of Alice, he lifted up the sleeve of his left arm.

As a result, the ghost hand covered by countless profound and obscure magic patterns was unreservedly displayed under the wise eyes of the Witch of the Mist.

The simple and beautiful pattern, full of magical pulsation, perfect fit with the body, and high bond with the soul, even for the well-informed and high-end Alice? Speaking of it, this ghost hand and the ghosts and gods that reside in it are also full of mystery and power.

With just one glance, the Witch of the Mist can be sure that this is something she has never seen before, and it may even be something completely new in this world.

Alice looked at the ghostly hand silently, forgot to breathe for a moment, and the next moment, her slender fingers couldn't help touching Midi's left arm.

Skin to skin, and before she could feel the ghost aura, Alice was the first to experience the youth's passion.

She quickly retracted her fingers, lowered her head slightly, and used her bangs to hide her panicked eyes.

Midi didn't notice the panic of the black-haired girl at this moment, but finally knew that the other party's attitude was no longer as tough as before.

It's just that, after all, this is just a relationship brought about by both parties having their own needs at the level of interests, and it is far from being a fetter.Therefore, Midi couldn't help but sighed secretly in her heart.

But right now, he has no other choice.

"As you can see, my ghost is very different from the usual ones. If you can understand its power, it will definitely improve your magic level." Midi said in a slightly bitter tone, "I can offer you Conduct research, but at the same time, I hope you can provide me with military help and help me defend my territory, how about this deal?"

deal...?

Alice chewed on the word silently, and couldn't help raising her head to look at the black-haired boy in front of her.

Maybe it's really just a deal where everyone gets what they need, but why does this young man named Midi show such a frank and sad look in his eyes?

He is obviously a smart person who is good at layout, and it is enough to assert that just by using one sentence to affect the result of the heads-up. What's more, what is needed to crack the White Crow's circle is not only powerful magic power.

But why would such a smart person show his hole cards so clumsily when negotiating, without haggling or backhanding, let alone induce or persuade himself, but just express everything frankly?

The Witch of the Mist didn't understand, but she couldn't help feeling that those eyes seemed trustworthy.

"Deal." Alice nodded.

Of course, there is also a factor of desire to study this powerful ghost.

But more, it was because of the delicious hot soup stewed by the young man.

And this look that is still very honest no matter how suspicious it is.
