Reincarnated as a boss tyrant in the game
#89 - Influence
Queen Maria Asa did not remain calm as the outside world had expected; her heart was filled with anxiety and unease. Therefore, she urgently summoned Soren.
Soren quickly arrived at the Queen's palace. Seeing Maria Asa's solemn expression, he already had some idea of what was happening. After respectfully greeting her, he stood aside and waited for the Queen's instructions.
Maria Asa took a deep breath and slowly said, "Soren, the situation is much more severe than we imagined. The family's fine salt business has been strongly suppressed by the Crodo family. I'm worried that if this continues, the family's business will suffer a heavy blow."
Upon hearing this, Soren frowned, but he quickly regained his composure and confidently said, "Mother, don't worry. I will find a way to solve this problem. You just need to remain as you are and don't act rashly. Leave the rest to me."
Looking at Soren's determined eyes, Maria Asa felt her anxiety slightly relieved. She nodded and said, "Soren, I believe in your ability. However, you must also be careful and not put yourself in danger."
Soren smiled and said, "Mother, I will be careful. Moreover, I will take good care of myself and won't let you worry."
However, Queen Maria Asa felt that mere concern and greetings were far from enough. Therefore, she warmly invited Soren to stay and have dinner with her.
As night fell, the dining table in the palace was filled with dishes that were pleasing to the eye, nose, and palate.
Seeing this scene, Soren felt a surge of warmth in his heart. He knew that all of this was carefully prepared by Queen Maria Asa for him.
When Queen Maria Asa examined the table full of dishes, she frowned slightly. She felt that although these dishes tasted good, they seemed to lack something special.
Although Soren had given the red fruit and purple melon pie to the court chefs, they could never replicate the flavor that Soren made.
Therefore, Maria Asa had a sudden inspiration and said, "Soren, it's been a long time since I've had the desserts you make. Could you make a few desserts for me?"
Although Soren was surprised, he readily agreed.
At some point, Queen Maria Asa had also built an open kitchen in the palace, with the dining table not far from the kitchen.
Soren quickly busied himself. Soon, two fragrant and delicious desserts were presented to Queen Maria Asa.
Among them, a peculiar purple grooved small bread was particularly eye-catching.
Unfortunately, this world does not yet have sugar, so many desserts cannot be made and can only rely on the sweetness of the red fruit to satisfy the need for sweetness.
Queen Maria Asa savored the delicacies made by Soren himself, her heart filled with satisfaction and happiness. She especially loved the red fruit and purple melon pie, which was sweet but not greasy, with an excellent texture. She gently said to Soren, "You make such good desserts; I like them very much. I hope to taste more of the delicacies you make in the future. What is this small bread?"
"This is a canelé, a new dessert I've developed," Soren explained with a smile.
Maria Asa picked up a canelé and examined it in front of her eyes.
The canelé's exterior was light and cute, and the baked crispy shell had a rich caramel color and a faint aroma of wine.
Taking a bite, Maria Asa's eyes lit up. Its texture was rich in layers, the outside was crispy, and the inside was soft, chewy, and moist. The delicate honeycomb-like holes in the filling added to its unique charm.
Maria Asa praised it incessantly, eating three in a row before stopping and saying, "It's so delicious."
Hearing this, Soren's heart stirred, and he confirmed that Queen Maria Asa had a particular fondness for sweets.
Soren inadvertently touched the fork in his hand, and it fell under the table. Instinctively, Soren bent down slightly and reached out to pick up the lost utensil.
As he looked up, his gaze inadvertently caught a glimpse of the expanse of whiteness under Maria Asa's table. That pure color was like the first snow in winter, instantly plucking at his heartstrings.
His heart raced, and fireworks seemed to explode in Soren's mind, but he quickly regained his composure. He carefully poked his head out from under the table, maintaining a calm smile on his face, as if everything just now was an illusion.
He sat back in his seat and continued to chat with Maria Asa, as if nothing had happened. However, the throbbing in his heart lingered.
Soren secretly rejoiced but also felt a sense of inexplicable loss. He knew he needed to be more careful lest this subtle emotion affected the relationship between him and Maria Asa.
From that day on, the relationship between Queen Maria Asa and Soren became even closer. They often savored delicacies together, sharing each other's joys, sorrows, and angers. And Soren often prepared various desserts for Queen Maria Asa, making her feel无比 happy and satisfied.
Every time after having dinner with the stunning Maria Asa, Soren's heart would surge with an indescribable heat. This power seemed to churn within him, driving him to step into the Holy Ruins Labyrinth to quell the restless heat.
In the night, Soren's figure moved like a ghost in the dark corridors of the labyrinth. His eyes were sharp as an eagle, and every move revealed the agility and power of a cheetah. The longsword in his hand seemed to be one with him, dancing with his figure and flashing with a cold light.
Those low-level magical creatures were as fragile as straw under his sword. Each time the sword was swung, it was accompanied by a shrill scream, followed by the heavy sound of the magical creature falling to the ground.
Soren's movements were merciless but also full of artistic and powerful beauty. His figure moved quickly in the labyrinth, leaving behind afterimages, as if interpreting a silent dance.
The Holy Ruins Labyrinth after the cleanup was filled with an atmosphere of肅殺 and silence.
Soren stood in the silent corridor, his longsword sheathed, and the heat in his heart had subsided. He looked at the fallen magical creatures, a hint of satisfaction flashing in his eyes. In the slaughter, his swordsmanship foundation had gradually become proficient.
"If you keep holding back, you'll be tempted even by a sow," the Blade of Infinity reminded inappropriately.
Soren's mouth twitched, and he immediately understood why he had been reacting so strongly these past few days. It turned out to be the negative influence of the sin of lust.
"Why didn't you say so sooner!" Soren said unhappily and headed towards Maria's Palace.
