I Like This Dream!

As the sky darkened, candles were lit, and nimble people walked around, quickly and roughly arranging the hall that they didn't know what to do with it before. This is not a hall suitable for banquets. Rather, the entire castle is a fortification. The space is not large enough, and the windows are small. Fortunately, there are very few people attending the banquet.

There was a round table in the middle of the hall, and Jane apologized again, saying that she couldn't find a decent dining table in the backcountry, so she had to use this substandard round table to make up the number. The position at the round table cannot be distinguished from top to bottom, left to right, and people sitting at the table cannot be distinguished according to tradition. Jane sat next to the God-Fated One, counting from the left was Lydia, Dennis, and then Jane on the left. While worrying about the situation of the monastery, Dennis pondered over Jane's intentions, and countless conjectures swirled in his mind.

Unfortunately, he took the job alone, and his first confidant is now in an unknown monastery, and his companions are completely useless. Lydia closed her eyes, clasped her hands, twirled a rosary in her left hand, and was doing the regular prayers of an ascetic. An Xu concentrated on looking at the small door through which the food deliverer came in, and he knew what he was thinking at a glance with that expectant expression.

Candles made of animal fat exude a sweet or stinky smell, a bit like the smell of fried food in a small fast food restaurant. It smells disgusting when you are full, and it smells very greedy when you are hungry. The big round table appeared on this occasion. Compared with the legend of the knights of the round table, the first thing An Xu thought of was the Eight Immortals table that is common for dinner parties. She took a sip of her saliva and waited for the waiter to serve.

The food was brought out shortly after. The thighs of an unknown animal occupy a huge plate, the big pot is filled with milky white soup, and the small plate is filled with black jelly... Although it is a medieval background, the food for the banquet looks pretty good? Great, I'm not a textualist who insists on eating rock black bread in my dreams, An Xu thought with emotion.

"You're welcome, please eat!" Jane greeted enthusiastically, "The meat on the silver plate is the leg meat of Xiaolin sheep, which is the most delicious meat in this season! The soup is stewed from the breast meat of Fenghu, with cream, meat Flavored with cardamom and cinnamon sticks. Ah, Your Excellency is so discerning! It is Tibes black pudding, which is mixed with the blood and fat of Tibes bison, wrapped in the intestines of forest sheep and boiled!"

When she heard her explanation, the spoonful of black pudding had already been scooped into An Xu's mouth. She paused there, fighting for a moment for a flavor that was completely different from the sweet pudding she had imagined, and finally decided to accept this setting, swallowing it with a thud.

In fact, the taste is not bad, not such a dark dish as it sounds, a bit like Maoxuewang, which is not spicy. Why should this kind of thing be made into the shape of dessert, and use such a deceptive name as black pudding? If I'm not a meat pie, but a sweet pie who knows nothing, I will definitely leave a psychological shadow, okay? An Xu complained in her heart, and suddenly found that everyone else at the table was looking at her. She blinked inexplicably, and said hesitantly, "Thank you? It tastes good?"

"Our honor!" Jane smiled, cut off a piece of leg meat with a dagger, put it on An Xu's plate, and promoted: "Come and taste this! The cook said that the little Lin sheep that is a few months old has been deodorized with spices. Taste, hey, I don’t understand this, but it’s delicious anyway!”

The general's smile seemed much more sincere than before, An Xu was infected by her expectant eyes, and felt that his mood and appetite had become better. It turns out that Jane is the type who likes to sell things she likes to others, and is very happy to meet like-minded people? An Xu suddenly felt that this tough Yujie became kinder. She smiled back and opened her mouth to eat meat.

"Please wait!" Dennis yelled with a stiff face, "Today is Saturday, General!"

"Saturday? What happened to Saturday?" Jane asked ignorantly.

Yeah, what happened to Saturday? There are no weekends here. An Xu, who was interrupted from eating meat, also looked ignorant, while looking at Dennis intently, he tore off a piece of meat and began to chew.

Jane turned her head and glanced at her, and turned back with a bright smile.

"Saturday is a fasting day!" Dennis said sadly, "Shepherds who serve God should fast on every fasting day! Not to mention God said 'blood is life, shepherds can't eat it'! Your Excellency, the Blessed One, must not know What kind of raw materials are used for the black pudding, and I don’t know today’s date because I have been in a coma for many days.”

Anxu remembered that Wednesday, Friday, Saturday and various anniversaries are fasting days, and priests are not allowed to eat meat. Before the dark age, everyone should fast with the priests, but under the beast tide, the displaced people must eat the meat of different animals to survive, and they will have the strength to fight when they are full, so after that, fasting is only within the strict rules of the Holy See conduct. There are also teachers in the seminary who use this change to lament the decline of the world and the decline of people's hearts. They feel that the deterioration of the world is because those people are unwilling to fast to purify their souls, and even wantonly eat blood.

An Xu didn't have much attachment to food at first, but was starved by the ascetic monk's courtyard, and met the archangel who gave her meat to eat when she was dying of starvation. The habit of eating meat. The college’s food was only manna, and Chris’s food was often meat. Rao An Xu had a vivid memory, and he didn’t think about fasting and taboos for a moment.

"So that's how it is!" Jane suddenly realized, "Our small place can't afford a big chef, and we have never entertained big people, so we should be punished for not knowing how to serve vegetarian dishes together. David! Where are our vegetables? Not coming up?"

She stood up and yelled loudly at the door, and there was a vague answer from the door. Jane sat down satisfied, cut another piece of meat with a dagger, put it in front of An Xu, and said relaxedly: "Eat more, eat meat to grow taller."

"My lord general!" the head of the monastery said dissatisfied.

"What?" Jane glanced at him, "My father is old with the last head of the Sullivan family. If Anna hadn't gone to the seminary for no reason, she would have been my brother-in-law. Let the heir of the Sullivan family fast Day? Hey, I don't remember her father giving her up to a convent."

As the Bible says, the disciples of the righteous Urban and the descendants of the righteous Tolan parted ways after the end of the dark age. One side stayed away from the secular world, was not allowed to marry, and served God all his life; the other side established a dynasty and reproduced today’s major nobles , Respect God and God’s shepherds—in other words, after so many years of alliances and games between the two parties holding divine power and royal power, they barely maintain a balance and do not interfere with each other, leaving behind many recognized rules.

For example, the heirs of the nobility should be baptized and believe in religion, but they must never become a member of the Holy See. Only the sons of the nobility other than heirs, who were sent to the seminary by their parents when they were young, or voluntarily converted when they grew up, could act like other shepherds.

When there are still two Sullivans in the world, the Holy See can still use the experience as an excuse to let Lance and Anna stay in the seminary while the Sullivan family is not taken seriously. But now that Anna has become the real "Last Sullivan", even if she is also a favored person, there is no reason for her to stay in the church.

Unless Anna. Sullivan wanted it himself.

Dennis was filled with a sense of powerlessness as he watched the favored man gobble up the food. Where does this look like "growing up at St. Andrew's Theological Seminary", "being favored by the gods", and "close to the ascetics"? It's not the same as saying it's too good! The ascetics on their side watched their noses and noses and their hearts, and they expected God to manifest rather than expecting her. The host general brandished a sharp dagger, and sliced ​​the meat as thin as cicada's wings. She noticed the abbot's gaze, grinned at him, and stabbed the dagger on the table casually.

Get in without a handle.

"From this point of view, it is indeed not appropriate for His Excellency to live in the monastery." Dennis wisely admitted, and then changed his tone, "But the heir of the dignified Sullivan family and the divinely attached person may also Shouldn't you live in the barracks?"

"Don't worry about that," Jane waved her hand. "The residents in the southeast corner have moved out before. You can live there, and all the facilities will be arranged."

"As complete as this hall?" Dennis asked.

The general raised his brows and was about to refute, Dennis immediately bowed his head and performed a priestly salute, and said gently: "The Stuart family is naturally trustworthy, but with all due respect, Your Excellency, the God-Fated One, has lived in St. Get used to living in the frontier."

"What is the plan of the dean?" Jane looked at him unkindly, "The training of Sullivan's heir must be carried out at the border."

"Of course I have no doubts about this!" Dennis said, "It's just that the general who is a family friend of the Sullivan family must know, Anna. Miss Sullivan has been weak and sick since she was a child. Your Excellency, the Blessed One, was carefully cared for by her brothers and sisters in the monastery, and The soldiers on the Tibes defense line shoulder the heavy responsibility of guarding the defense line, so they cannot keep an eye on His Excellency the Favored One all the time. We are very worried about the physical condition of His Excellency the Favored One, please let the healer Lydia live with her !"

One side supports the other side, and Dennis of Tevin City was promoted here not only because of the gold coins he paid tribute to his boss. The vice-principal of the Great Monastery of Twente does not have the aura of majesty of the Holy See headquarters like his colleagues in Alingu, nor does he have the political intuition of his compatriots in Urburg, but he is engraved with the principle of businessman and wealth, Good at bargaining, very flexible.

In the end the general reached a consensus with the newly appointed abbot.

Anna the Goddess. Sullivan will live in the dwelling between the monastery and the barracks, and the general's people will arrange a place for her and provide food for her; Lydia will live with Anna, and since there are pious ascetics living together, let the monastery put them in their residence. Idols are a reasonable thing to do. Abbey and Frontiers completed a round of scoring depending on future encounters, and the core of their fight hiccupped, thinking it was a happy dinner.
