Chess Mage of Faerûn

Chapter 451 Pillow style

"Just what? Tell me."

The mage slightly opened his eyes and looked at Syl with some interest.

“Since leaving the banks of the Chongsa River and coming here, my sisters and I have hardly had the chance to soak in the water anymore. Besides being too busy with other things, there is no water source where we live now.”

"Water is not a big problem. Not only is Gaoya coastal, but I also remember there is a small lake at the foot of Castle Mountain."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yuan immediately sketched out a map of the entire Gaoya region in his mind.

"Hmm, that's what I wanted to tell you."

The siren's massage techniques became increasingly gentle, almost caressing, and even her voice took on a soft, sweet tone.
"I was thinking, could we build a small house for my sister and me by the sea, just like before, so that we can go and play there when we have free time in the future?"

"Or we could fence off that little lake, so that we wouldn't have our fun in the water disturbed by outsiders."

This little siren spoke with a sweet and gentle tone, her eyes exuding a myriad of charms, and her restless, wandering hands practically screamed seduction.

What kind of person is Master Zhang? These petty tricks could not fool his eyes. He immediately fell for the beauty trap and readily agreed. As he spoke, he pulled Xier into the bathtub and began to stir up trouble, engaging in passionate lovemaking.

After the storm subsided, the official, now that he had pulled up his trousers, spoke with much more composure:
"The seaside is indeed a bit too far; we can build a dock and port later. As for the lake..."

???

Seeing that the duck was roasted to about 70% done but was about to fly away, Syl panicked. She grabbed the mage's arm and pulled him, looking at him with her beautiful, watery eyes.

"Master, you promised them."

The siren was incredibly charming, clinging to him with her whole body. Even though he was on cooldown and Zhang Da Guanren didn't have any leverage over her, he couldn't resist her charm.

"Okay, okay, it's not like I'm going to back out, it's just that there are some related consequences that need to be dealt with."

The monk, with his arm around the sea monster, sat down and calmly began to reason with her:

"You can certainly go play in the lake, but it is one of the important water sources for the High Cliffs. The fields near the castle depend on it for irrigation. Surely you understand that?"

Upon hearing this, Hill's momentum faltered, and he looked at the other person with a pitiful expression, trying to explain:
"But it's not a stagnant pool; there's a downstream river that flows westward into the sea."

“That little bit of water is not enough. That’s why I said we need to put in some effort to widen the downstream waterway and build tributary canals for water conservancy. Then we can turn that lake into a water park.”

Having received the promise, the siren nodded hastily. Although she didn't quite understand what the water park meant, it sounded interesting, and there was no way she could refuse such a good thing.

After calming Syl down, the mage, feeling languid from a hot bath and vigorous exercise, simply hugged her and climbed into bed, falling into a deep sleep that lasted until dawn.

"Now that the spring planting is over, your burdens are lighter. Consult with Jady more often and keep an eye on your two lazy sisters. Don't slack off on the way of nature."

The obedient Sil nodded repeatedly in response to the mage's instructions, while still busy dressing and tying the other person's clothes.

"correct,"

The monk turned his head and said casually:
"If you still have the energy, I have a few introductory books you can read. You can ask me if you have any questions, but how much you learn depends on yourself." As soon as she heard this, the little siren was stunned, and her hand, which was adjusting the other's clothes, froze in mid-air.

"Really? Can I?"

Sylva's voice, which used to rival that of a lark, trembled slightly at this moment.

"Now is the time. I said I would give you this opportunity."

The monk reached out and took her small hand, kneading it, while his other hand stroked her emerald green hair.

As he said, it was indeed time. After nearly two years, the naturally gifted Siren Sister had truly mastered the Druid Way, solidifying her foundation through theoretical understanding and practical application. At this point, a slight distraction from his duties would not be considered unrealistic.

Another matter is that I promised Grand Duke Iltan that once the territory is initially stabilized, the matter of bringing Gaviel to Wudong to study should also be put on the agenda.

It doesn't make sense that they would take in an outsider as a cheap apprentice while leaving their own wife out in the cold.

He pulled out a pre-prepared arcane beginner's gift pack, tossed it to Syl, and left with the words, "Read the whole thing, memorize the key chapters!"

Only the little siren, completely bewildered by the dozen or so books and the terrifying beginner quests, stood there dumbfounded.

The excitement and anticipation of a naive period cannot last long. How far one can go on this path depends entirely on one's own perseverance and talent. Even if Zhang Yuan wanted to enlighten her, he could not walk the path for her in the end.

Meanwhile, Master Zhang shook his head, banishing these thoughts from his mind, and strode to the foot of Gaoyabao Mountain, where all the exploration forces gathered and were ready.

"Let's go up the mountain and into the castle."

Without further ado, following the mage's command, the Word Bearer led the way as the vanguard, while he himself followed behind, protected by his ogre brothers, and they easily made their way to the castle dungeon.

The mage, returning to the palace for the second time, was much better prepared. Apart from the repairman with the laser generator, the other pieces were all quite targeted.

"I have broken free from the shackles of the cage and have finally been able to descend into this material plane."

"I was born in the darkness of a dying star!"

"My name is Mercury."

The three-star chess piece, Balazon the Soulbreaker, commonly known as the White Bull, along with two one-star orange cards, Enigma and Spectre, descended upon this place using the power of a level five summoning spell.

These pieces all share a common trait: their original heroes all have a deep connection with the power of shadow.

Needless to say, Soul Splitter and Enigma, both of whom originated from the Shadow Realm of Kaguya's world, are both pawns. In terms of their characteristics, the former is good at attaching the power of shadow to his weapon to cause impact damage to enemies, while the latter is a spellcaster who directly summons a surging ocean of shadows and negative energy to erode and devour enemies.

While the origins of the Spectre are shrouded in mystery and kept secret, they are at least quite different from ordinary undead creatures, and their emphasis on shadow and spatial attacks indicates a certain tendency or characteristic.

"Hey, Balasan, my old buddy, welcome. I really envy you and Nevinmore, those two lucky guys. Why can't our administrators open a factory in the Mechanical Realm so that Ritotrap and I can also have a consciousness that stays here?"
