Netheril’s Glory - Chapter 1325

[Chapter 1317]

“Okay, everyone, let’s not embarrass this little girl next, I must be frightened by so many people suddenly paying attention to her… Oh, look what she brought for this banquet? Sweet and sour berries Pie? It’s a very old elf tradition, with delicious jam mixed into the pie, and I remember when I was a little boy, I liked to taste this sweet food.”

Looking at Lothari’s dizzy expression with red cheeks and eyes that were about to start rolling in circles, the empathetic “Pious” finally took his hand away from the other party’s long smooth hair, and next, his eyes were also placed on the little girl’s shoulder. on an unremarkable basket.

It must be admitted that the bagpipe family is worthy of being a first-class “food family”, and Lothari’s older brothers and sisters are also worthy of being well-known chefs who were once well-known. The berry pie brought to this banquet by the noble girl is the most exquisite. , the most delicious and fine food, I saw that the cotton cloth covering the basket to keep warm was gently opened by Aikal, and an extremely rich aroma quickly filled this small corner of the hall.

Making perfect food is an uncompromising art, and folk snacks such as berry pie may have a more natural and simple artistic atmosphere than those overly ornate court delicacies, especially for those who eat at ordinary times. For legendary professionals who are accustomed to big fish and meat, it may be easier for them to be interested in a little conventional food.

After all, who didn’t want to eat sweets when they were young? Even if they were as strong as legends, they must have experienced the naive childhood of pursuing sweets, right?

So under Aikal’s “reminder”, the other three legendary guests naturally became interested in the four pies in the basket. For example, the kind Lord Northgutcha leaned down very gentlemanly and whispered to Lothari said:

“Don’t pay attention to what Dai Li’s tigress said, her knife-mouthed and tofu-hearted guy is just to scare you. Kind people will not care about a little girl’s unintentional words. We are here to attend a banquet, have fun and get to know each other. Friends are the most important, aren’t they? Now I think you can be my friend as a cute little guy, so would you like to share your pie with your friend, which is me – North Gucha, to taste it” ?

With a gracious smile full of noble etiquette, Lord Nothguza, who likes to make friends, seems to really care about the difference in power levels as rumored.

Of course, the fact that he made a “friend” so politely and casually also had the meaning of expressing his attitude towards Aikal who was standing next to him, and now his subtext towards Lothari’s friendly behavior is equivalent to implying “the pious”—— I came to the Eternal Forest just to make friends, absolutely nothing else.

It’s just that for a shy little girl, such a polite greeting from a legendary existence is really a bit too “flattering”.

“Dang… Dangdang… Of course, these are pies made with mountain spring water and koji flour, I hope… I hope they have the luck to meet your taste…”

She hurriedly handed the basket in front of Lord Northgutcha, the little girl whose pointed ears were starting to tremble was the first time she felt so excited, because at this moment she was very sure that her banquet trip was a great success. Now, after the banquet is over, the bagpipe family will be completely famous in the entire elf royal court and even the entire Faerun because of “the pie that legendary professionals like to eat”, and her little ranger will completely get rid of the dangerous hunting work and gain stability. logistical positions.

After all, no one dares to let a “friend of a legendary strong man” have an accident, even if this so-called “friend” is somewhat like a show.

Of course, the symphony in the banquet hall is still playing softly all the time, the goblin’s carol is still sung euphemistically in the shadow of the lights, and all the nobles have their eyes set on the pie basket in front of North Gucha. , neither the trembling Lothali nor Madam Dai Li, who glared angrily and dared to describe herself as a “tigress”, did not notice that the silent Millers projection had already begun. Standing in the same place unnaturally motionless, and on the other side, the corner of the “devout”‘s mouth also faintly evoked a meaningful smile……

It was a smile that seemed to win the lottery and seemed to contain a hint of sarcasm, but at this moment Aikal concealed his expression very well, so in the eyes of others, his smile was more like a simple nostalgia for his childhood. .

“Give me a taste of the food in your basket, and give another to Ms. Dai Li over there. There are exactly four pieces of pies here, no more or no less, just so we can all taste it. Until… I’ve heard that the berries of the Eternal Forest are magical, and the person who eats them for the first time will have a unique flavor.”

Without further ado, he controlled three pies to fly out of the basket, controlled two of them to fly to Lord Daly and Lord Northguchar, who were standing on the side, and controlled the last pie to come to the silver tray in his hand. Carl’s performance is still in line with the hospitality of an old nobleman.

However, I don’t know since when, the atmosphere in the palace hall seems to be a little wrong, and even the doors and windows of the palace are all closed unconsciously……

“Well, it is indeed a traditional specialty of the Elf Royal Court. The sweetness of the jam and the soft and glutinous pastry are mixed together, and the natural flavor is perfectly integrated into it. To be honest, this may be the best I have tasted in the past few thousand years. Delicious food, what do you think, Dai Li”?

“It’s really delicious, but why Millers…”

“click”!

It seemed that a hazy and crisp sound came from the void. At this moment, the symphony that surrounded the hall came to an abrupt end, and it was as if an old record was stuck, and its actions and words stopped abruptly. The projection of the legendary lady interrupted his words with a brief flash.

Yes, at this moment, she was as silent as a cassette tape like Millers who had been standing beside her without saying a word.

Yes, at this moment, Dai Li, who is still chewing the pie, is as deep, stiff and lifeless as a statue…

She was speechless.

“This… what’s going on? Dai Li, Millers, what’s wrong with you? Mr. Akar, there may be a problem with their body”!

The pie in his hand fell to the ground because of surprise. After realizing that something was wrong, North Gucha’s projection soon showed a suppressed panic due to such a strange change.

However, when he turned around and asked the “devout” for his opinion, he found that Aikar, who he had always respected and even “respected”, did not show any surprise, and on the contrary, he didn’t know when he started , the “Grand Priest of the God of Life”, who was cold and gleaming in his eyes, actually lost his perfect friendly smile!

“It’s really boring, it’s really boring, no wonder that guy Sian doesn’t doubt whether I have the strength to complete this transaction, the legend of the hermit is too weak… Do you think I’m right? My dear Northgucha Your Mightiness”?
