You and me under the world tree

In the boiling oil pan, the pork ribs coated with egg liquid and bread crumbs have already exuded a mouth-watering meaty aroma, and it seems that they have completed the finalization, and the color is gradually tending to golden yellow.

After turning over the fried pork chops, Hodder glanced at the oven on the other side, where bread crisps were baking.

In addition, there are two small pots and one large pot.

Cod and potatoes were cooking in two small pots, and they were going to be mixed together to make cod soup.

As for the big pot, there is a light vegetable soup stewed. Part of the vegetable soup should be mixed with egg yolks and stirred into baby food.

It seems that there is nothing for him to do for the time being.

After realizing this, Hodder couldn't help but took two steps back.

At the position at the door, he could see the kitchen in operation at a glance.

Everything is in order, only a faint fragrance spreads in the air.

Although the domineering aroma of meat dominates the mainstream, the fragrance of fresh vegetables mixed in it always makes him feel refreshed.

"call……"

Breathing in such a smell, Hodder closed his eyes.

But it didn't take long before he was 'disturbed'.

"You look content?"

"Ok?"

When Hodder turned his head, he saw Dietrich in a black dress.

Dietrich's own taste seems to be like this. At least Hodder has never seen her wearing light-colored clothes, and she has always been dominated by dark and dark colors.

But beautiful.

Because the dark-toned clothing can just set off the exposed white skin.

Combined with the white hair and blood-red eyes, there is always such a sickly pale and weak feeling.

It would be fine if it was placed on other people, but the key is that Hodder knows her true identity and understands her true power.

weak?

She is a ruthless person who can wrestle with giants.

At the moment when he saw Dietrich, Huo De unconsciously had these messy thoughts in his heart.

But soon, he suppressed these thoughts.

"What do you mean?" he asked.

"I said you, you seemed to be very satisfied before, this feeling is like..."

Having said that, Dietrich couldn't help but pause for a moment.

Because she was trying to think of the right words.

"It's like... willing to be ordinary? You seem to be very keen on this kind of daily trivial things."

"Ah, yes, you're right."

"Uh……"

Because Huo De answered too quickly, and without any hesitation, Dietrich couldn't help but froze.

"Is this kind of thing weird?"

"Yes……"

Facing Hodder's gentle expression, Dietrich nodded after hesitating for a moment.

However, she didn't want the man in front of her to misunderstand anything, so she hurriedly added:

"I've met very few people like you."

"Almost everyone is thinking about climbing up, right?"

"Yes, and no one settles for mediocrity."

"It's normal. People who are willing to be ordinary will never come to you. After all, you are a great Gothic royal family. I guess people like Studus don't value reputation so much."

Herme Stodtas

The warrior who once killed the fire dragon who caused disasters in the northern peninsula did not seek refuge with the prince at that time because of his reputation or wealth.

To put it bluntly, at that time, he wanted to test how far his martial arts were from the famous heroes in the world on a whim, so he excitedly went to challenge His Royal Highness, but was defeated head-on in the end.

And because of this defeat, he saw clearly his limits at the time, so he chose to stay in Gothic.

Compared with people like the holy sword warrior Wittig, Studus is undoubtedly more pure in terms of performance.

but……

"However, Studus is not someone who can deal with such trivial matters. He doesn't even care about the territory I gave him, and he is closer to an ordinary soldier in terms of performance."

"The ethos of the entire atrium world is martial, and fighters are either martial idiots or seek fame and fortune, let alone young people."

"young people……"

At this moment, Dietrich couldn't help muttering to herself.

In fact, after Huo De accidentally mentioned this point, she also remembered that the man in front of her who looked like a normal person was actually not young at all.

Although the years have not left any traces on his face, he is indeed an old man.

But if you think about it carefully, this kind of thing doesn't seem to have anything to do with experience, age, etc.?

"Some people, even when they are old, are so shameless that they fight for power and gain, and even turn against their former brothers. But people like you, even when you were young, never longed for fame and fortune, right?"

"Who doesn't yearn for fame and wealth? Even I am the same. I also love money, and I once thought of becoming a hero admired by everyone."

"but you……"

"But I'm lazy. I find those things are too tiring. It's better to travel around the world and be free."

After hearing Hodder's words, Dietrich couldn't help but smile.

It was the first time she had heard such a statement.

"What an interesting statement."

"Well, it's okay. I'm actually quite lazy. I don't like doing housework, let alone cooking, but seeing a clean room and delicious food gives me a sense of accomplishment."

Having said that, Hodder couldn't help but pause.

He raised his head and scanned the oven and pots in the kitchen.

"I don't really want much, Dietrich."

He never wanted much, and it has always been that way from the start.

"I just want to spend every day in a leisurely way. The only things I'm willing to think about are three meals a day and travel plans. In the end, it's good to have such a place to rest."

Watching Hodder's face, Dietrich opened her mouth slightly.

At this moment, an inexplicable impulse suddenly appeared in her heart, and she wanted to say something.

But for a while, I didn't know where to start.

After hesitating for a moment, she finally sighed.

"You can rest here, and Jotunheim can be handed over to me."

"No, for me, it doesn't matter if I go to another place."

"but……"

"Since you're in the kitchen, do me a favor."

Howard smiled.

"Ah, um, what do you want me to do?"

"The cod meat is almost ready. This is cod from Iceland. You use a fork to crush the cod meat, cut the potatoes into pieces, and leave the rest to me."

Chapter 62: Everyday life is short

Man is a creature that likes to enjoy.

Moreover, it is difficult to fully satisfy this desire. They will always find ways and spend a lot of time to do something to satisfy their inner desire.

like food...

People on the seaside always regard the things of the mountains as delicacies, while people living on the plains regard things from the deep sea as delicacies.

And because of this kind of psychology, people will always show a kind of surprise when they see food that is out of season or out of place.

Even Dietrich was no exception.

"Cod..."

Gently lifted the lid of the pot, Dietrich stared at the snow-white fish that had been boiled in white water.

"Can you still buy Icelandic cod in Skywrath City?"

“Can be booked in advance.”

"Reserve?"

"It's a part of business and trade. Although ordinary people are particular about food, it's not to the point of hypocrisy, but those inside the palace are different. Because they have money and status, they always want to eat something." 'out of season' stuff, and Icelandic cod became part of the commercial trade."

"Oh……"

I don't know if I understood, but that's how Dietrich responded anyway.

At the same time, she scooped out the cod meat with a colander, placed it in a bowl, picked up two forks and forked it lightly.

very tender...

"Completely smashed?"

"Well, to mash, you take two forks."

After glancing at Dietrich's slightly unfamiliar movements, Hodder spoke.

After hesitating for a moment, he continued following his previous topic.

"Anyway, that's the way it is. There is a well-developed commerce and fishery in the Amstel harbor, so generally speaking, after the reservation, a special person will go down the Rhine River to the Rhine Ferry and the abandoned city, and then Follow the repaired road all the way to Skyfury City."

"This... sounds like a bit of a waste?"

Although he was also born into a wealthy family, it can even be said that he grew up with a golden key in his mouth.

But Dietrich is obviously not the kind of person who likes extravagance.

Being able to travel alone, such a person is not the kind of person who likes extravagance and waste, and will mess around.

As for her subconscious words, Hodder also agreed.

"Well, it's actually quite a waste."

There is no need to deny it.

From a personal point of view, the word waste must not escape.

Because cod is not a necessary food, although the taste is fresh and tender, it is not necessary to eat.

"Compared to transporting cod, you can go to the seaside to eat it."

"That's right, but in fact, from a broad perspective, this seemingly extravagant and wasteful 'transportation' still feeds a lot of civilians."

Having said that, Hodder paused.
