The Amber Sword: Act 333 Natsuno (I)
The two sisters Ling and Lian sat on the chair, using the wooden knife and fork to focus on the barbecue and bread on the plate in front of them, creaking. Both sisters had a very cute white milk mark on their lips, and the milk cup was set aside.
Slooma is a relatively large town near the Bucce area. This small town on the Black Forest border has gathered a large number of adventurers and merchants doing Black Forest trading for a long time. It is the largest settlement outside the Madara and Aouine borders. With bazaar one. Of course, this is usually a trivial area. The owner of the town is a hired Mercenary Company. As long as it is not a battle on the surface, all conspiracy and tricks are allowed.
Of course, these little tricks have not been taken into account by Brando. They only secretly dealt with three short-eyed hair thieves trying to Xiang Ling and Lian make a move, and two thieves trying to pinch his wallet. Sitting safely in the hotel, of course, the two sisters knew nothing about it.
This place is very close to Faithwind Circle or Bucce. Its north is the southern foot of Tosankaad Forest and it is the Silman river valley. To the west, it is a gentle **** belt of Grahár Mountain Ranges. Brando. Remember that he brought Freya before the summer. Once in Grahár Mountain, when he looked east on the cliff, the twilight and heavy forest that he saw in the eyes was actually the forest where they are now called 'summer woodland'.
This forest is the easternmost point of the Faithwind Circle Black Forest belt. Further east, it is the Bucce mountain range connected to Madara, which is also the place they passed before.
This forest can be said to be part of Black Forest, but it can also be said to be a peripheral area around Black Forest. In these rare places, there are often opportunities that ordinary people cannot imagine. Warcraft, minerals in the forest, and treasures and relics left by their predecessors may represent a fortune. It is for this reason that over time it has become a gathering place for Aouine Southern adventurers and desperates.
Brando even knows that among the adventurers, mercenaries gathered in Trentheim, this place is included in their autumn and summer routes. Every spring they will depart from Trentheim and come here via Tosankaad Forest, adventure, commission or just Find something to do. After entering the autumn, they will leave this place before entering the winter and return to Trentheim for a long winter.
But since Fir Tree Shire's original Thane was killed by him. The order of Trentheim is clear. Except for some law-abiding adventurers, those desperate and mercenaries were originally expelled from Trentheim. Some of them went to Silman area, and some went to Chablis. In either case, the number of outsiders who stayed in Maros for the winter became more numerous.
That's why it's lively right now. If it was before Year of Sword, this town is relatively deserted and depressed at this time of the day.
mercenary, adventurers known as Vaunde continent are the most destitute people in the world, but they are also the most extravagant people. Their money comes fast and fast. Because no one knows when they will die, it is the motto of humanoid to be happy in time. The lavish spending habits have led to local business activities, and the business people gathered here have come from this, but the various types of business activities launched from this have also been numerous. There are many women who do the flesh business.
Just opposite the hotel, Brando saw several exposed prostitutes soliciting guests. And most of their customers are not particular guys. Some people openly flirt on the street. When Brando saw a guy frantically put his hand under one of the women's clothes, he couldn't help it. Frowning, he got up and closed the window.
Brando clapped his hands and sat down again after throwing a guy who threatened him to open the window from the hall to the street outside. He saw that the cheeks of the two sisters were a little red in front of her, Ling's cheeks were a little lighter, and the cheeks of Lotus already were exactly like ripe apples.
"Don't worry about those people, a group of human dregs forget it/that's all."
"Yes. Mr. Brando," little girl stuttered.
"Eat more, the milk must be drunk." Seeing the disgusting look on both sisters' faces, Brando couldn't help but smile: "The barbecue sauce here is special. You can't eat so authentic in the north of Chablis. It ’s delicious, the ingredients in the dark forest are rare outside. The next meal will not be until Trentheim to eat such a rich food, and the meat must be dried again on the road.
Lian could not help but spit out his tongue. The dried meat on the road was dry and salty, like the firewood that knocked over the salt shaker. Of course, it looked the same.
However, it's much better than their sisters are often hungry. And at least beside this adult, they don't have to be scared.
Unfortunately, my sister insisted on going back to Lantolian, and she also wanted to go back to see the monastery and her friends, otherwise it seemed to stay in Trentheim.
In addition to mouth-watering grilled venison, there is also a kind of crooked croissant, which is also a local specialty. It is flavored with several berries in Black Forest. It has won the favor of the two sisters, and has always been silent. A satisfied look appeared on his face after taking a bite.
Brando after meals ordered fruit for dessert for the two sisters. Wooden trays filled with grapes and wild strawberries were delivered. These fruits are the most expensive part of this meal from the lowland coastal Lantolian. The grapes in the manor must be stored in the Magic cellar before they can adapt to long-distance transportation. The merchant puts partitions in wooden boxes, pads one layer after another, and puts the grapes after Magic preservation. Dead boards, hundreds of miles of transportation, can reach here, grapes everywhere in the Lantolian lowlands are more expensive than gold here.
Lian compares news with a strong record, so he was faintly guessing the value of these precious fruits, not only feeling a little uneasy. Eating the same weight of gold at one meal almost made the sisters, who had been living in poverty, feel guilty.
However, Brando didn't care about this. From Naugao to Bodo to Maros, the three of them have been eating and drinking all the way. Although it doesn't matter what he eats according to his current strength, the two little girl are still in the stage of growing up. In terms of human age, they are at most eleven years old. When Correct needs nutritional supplements, it is in the wilderness. Without conditions, it was hard to find a foothold, and naturally it was more toil.
These two sisters are white children, but they are also relatives of Medissa. These two cute and strong little girls, from the perspective of Brando, should have enjoyed a life like Princess, but the reality is that they are struggling. Among them, but even so, they still did not give up hope of optimism, but instead set foot on the road to find their mother.
Thousands of miles from Lantolian to Madara, they not only protect themselves, but also study while traveling. With this perseverance, it is hard to make people like it.
Moreover, this amount of money is actually nothing to Brando, not to mention that Valhalla and Fir Tree Shire's huge Wealth belong to him, that is, the annuity of Count of Radnor, he can't use it up at all.
The only thing that surprised Brando was that these fresh Magic cellar grapes were more expensive than Lantolian than the red wines produced by local estates in the past. They are precious ingredients that can only be seen on the noble table. He also did not expect. To see this kind of thing in this small town is not only a factor of its value and price.
Because this also involves the consumption power of the land, Brando can't help wondering, could it be that himself has been in Trentheim for more than two years, Maros, a small place, has prospered to such a place as already, and small hotels are ready at any time. Will it accept noble guests?
Brando's questions were quickly answered. A youngster appeared in front of him with a wine glass. The silky robe on the other's body and the emblem on the mink hat all showed that this was a noble child. However, Brando noticed that the opponent's behavior was slightly indecent. Although he was not serious in noble himself, he was dazzled by the best noble in the kingdoms of Her Highness the Princess, Oberbeck, and Nemesis. The realm of eating pork alone is enough to tell whether an noble really has its roots.
Although Brando doesn't think this ability is of much use for birds.
He guessed that this youngster may be a child of some of the emerging noble family in Aouine.
Since the war between Ampere Searl and Radnor, great changes have taken place in the noble pattern in the kingdom. Those nobles who have been persecuted in the frost and chaos have been vindicated. Although some of them may not originally be royalist member, but because There were too many vacancies in the battle, and after the war, Her Highness the Princess recaptured a batch of active nobles. The new noble still popped out of the ground like a bamboo shoot.
The typical characteristics of these new nobles are that they do not have fief, or fief is small and have no real power, but they are often close to the royal family or Her Highness the Princess, or have real power. Although Aouine has not yet been called 'government' or ' The court's ruling body, but under his more or less influence, a bureaucratic system surrounding Princess Gryphine and Halutz is still gradually forming. These people will constitute a new political ecology in the future of Aouine. They will no longer be feudal vassal But the king and the king's subjects.
