Forced to become a delicate companion of a paranoid lord

The Far North Territory has entered winter, but the Rift Valley Station located at the border between the Imperial Frontier and the Far North Territory is not much quieter than in spring.

This year, the Rift Valley Inn added a three-story building in the backyard, which is quite surprising. After all, since the establishment of the Rift Valley Inn, even if the staff were so overcrowded that they had to sleep in the yard, the stingy boss Loran was not persuaded by them to expand the station.

The inn was full of adventurers who had just retreated from the snowfields. Some of them had left the Far North half a month in advance but had been living in the inn. Others were driven out by the Parasos before the red moon.

In previous years, the Far North Territory did not stipulate that adventurers must leave the Far North Territory in winter. As long as they did not violate the taboos of the Parasos, trespass into forbidden areas, or deliberately cause trouble, the Parasos would not care at all.

But this year, for some reason, all the adventurers were sent out before winter.

However, some people also said that after the adventurer settlement near Gut City was destroyed during the fourth red moon, some people somehow managed to sneak into Gut City. When the people who were temporarily staying near the city wall were sent out of the snowfield by the Paraso people, that group of people had not yet come out.

In short, people are talking about all kinds of things in the Rift Valley Inn all day long. Everyone exchanges information with each other, and also exchanges things brought out from the Far North Territory. However, half of them will choose to exchange the things they brought out directly at the Rift Valley Inn for what they want.

In the side hall of the Rift Valley Inn, you can not only take on quests to earn gold coins and magic crystals, but also exchange them for potions, magic items, some monster materials and magic plants, as well as daily necessities and food.

This year, there are two more things in the Rift Valley Inn that make adventurers empty their wallets. One is the white paper they have seen in Goode City, and the other is milky white sugar blocks and sugar sand.

Anyone who has been to the Parasau celebration knows that the Parasau people use snow-white cardboard boxes to hold food, and they also give buyers a kind of paper that is as soft as cotton cloth, but thinner and less transparent.

Many people wanted to exchange this kind of paper with the Parasau people, but they failed to do so. As a result, some of them not only did not want to use soft paper, but they also took out paper boxes that had been used to hold food without soup, keeping them well.

Who would have thought that just after leaving the Far North Territory, such paper could be exchanged at the Rift Valley Station. Various snow-white papers of different thicknesses were neatly stacked in boxes on the shelves.

However, compared to the paper called Yunrou Paper and Yunrou Towel, the milky white sugar sand and sugar cubes called "Snowflake Candy" packed in exquisite transparent glass bottles are more attractive.

After all, they were a group of adventurers who lived a rough life, so they would rather use animal skin paper than a small box of paper that cost five universal gold coins.

Although it's a bit hard, it's cheap. I earned my money through hard work, so I wouldn't spend it like that.

They prefer to buy palm-sized glass bottles with a mouth as thick as two fingers, filled with snowflake candy. Although it costs ten universal gold coins, they have never seen such things before. If they take them to other places to sell, they may be able to sell them for a good price. Even if they can't sell them, they can keep them as gifts to give to others.

It’s not a bad idea to grit your teeth and take it back home for your family to try.

The bounty hunter Kirk was the one who gritted his teeth and bought some to take home for his wife and children to try. His good friend Billel took the money he had just exchanged from Boss Loran, and without blinking an eye, bought two boxes of paper and five bottles of snowflake candy, and then threw one bottle to Kirk.

He said to Cork who was frantically catching the glass bottle, "I have to go back to my hometown, so I won't go to your house to celebrate the child's birthday. This is my birthday present for Nanali. Say something good about me and Nanali. Don't let her like other uncles. Nanali and I are the best on the Lal Continent!"

Nanali is Cork's youngest daughter, who is six years old this year. She is a girl with a very sweet smile and is especially good at coaxing people. Every time the bachelor Birrell sees her, he is coaxed to pieces by her. Every year he has to shamelessly follow Cork home to celebrate Nanali's birthday. This year, he has important matters to discuss with his eldest brother, so he can only give up celebrating Nanali's birthday with tears.

Kirk was holding the sugar bottle, feeling a little embarrassed at first, after all, it was so expensive, but now he could put the bottle into his bag with ease.

For Nunnally, he's welcome.

Kirk knew that Birrell simply liked Nunnally, but every time he saw Birrell's eyes light up when he mentioned Nunnally, he wanted to beat him up.

After taking a deep breath and exhaling slowly, Kirk decided not to beat this guy. His brain was not that good to begin with, and if he was beaten silly, he might not know the way back home. He didn't want to send this guy home as it was too far.

Kirk nodded seriously: "I know. I will." I will let Nanali keep her distance from you!

"I will follow the Rhine Mercenaries for a while and leave early tomorrow morning." Biller calculated that it would take at least more than two months to get from the Rift Valley Inn to his hometown. The winter in the Far North Territory lasts seven months, which is enough time. If everything goes well, he will bring a caravan back next time!

Although it may take a detour, it doesn't matter, hehe. Next year he will make big brother look at him with new eyes! Hehehe.

Kirk didn't know why Birrell suddenly laughed so voluptuously and felt disgusted, so he turned his back and pretended not to know him.

Behind the exchange counter not far away, Roland looked at the piles of gold coins and magic crystals in the box at his feet, and the smile on his face never faded.

The mercenary who squatted beside his legs and worked tirelessly to sort out magic crystals of various attributes would look up at his little master from time to time.

Seeing that the other person's lips were curved and he was in a very good mood, he lowered his head with satisfaction and continued to sort the magic crystals diligently.

The paper and sugar that Boss Luolan bought at a friendly price made a profit of more than ten times! Happy! Let's go to Naya Castle to play with Shiyavi some other day. The Lord of the Snowfield will definitely not let him go out in winter.

At this moment, Boss Loran didn't know that his friend Xie Wei was racking his brains to coax his partner.

Thrall, who used to think that Shevi could not find fault with him going to see Mr. Yrel, now started to find fault with him because Shevi went to see Yrel too many times. He could control it at the beginning, but after entering winter and no longer being able to go out often, Shevi would go to see the cold black-haired magician almost every day, and sometimes even stay with Yrel for a whole day.

This made the extremely possessive Lord of the Snowfield feel very unhappy, but he did not stop his partner from meeting the other person.

Because Iriel is the most powerful magician that Little Rose can currently come into contact with.

However, in order for Shevi to learn magic better, Thrall can suppress his possessiveness, but that doesn't mean he won't take advantage of the situation.

Xie Wei has been getting up very early in the morning recently because Mr. Iriel will only stay in the Far North Territory for one winter, but he intends to teach him a lot of things. In order not to disappoint him, Xie Wei is also very diligent.

It was just that he was too focused on studying, so he neglected Sal too much.

When Sal is unhappy, he gets angry.

Not only did he not get up early in the morning to deal with territory affairs, he also pressed him into the quilt and lied to him that it was still early and asked him to take a nap.

Since Sal usually got up earlier, Xie Wei did not suspect anything. He slept until nine o'clock. Xie Wei struggled to lift the bed curtain to look at the clock, only to find that he had been fooled. He hurriedly wanted to get up to wash and change clothes, but the man reached out and pulled him back into the quilt.

When it comes to cheating, Xie Wei is no match for Sar.

After the man complained with a lonely look on his face that he not only rarely accompanied him for dinner recently, but also did not go to the office to help him deal with territory affairs, and the worst thing was that he cooked meals for others himself.

Xie Wei changed from being confident to being cautious, and then said in a gentle voice: "I'm sorry, Sal, it's my fault."

Sal looked at Little Rose, who was apologizing to him honestly with a guilty look on her face. His heart was as soft as a pool of holy spring water, but he also felt guilty as a mess.

What's wrong with Little Rose? Little Rose is not wrong!

But he kept his mouth shut, pretending to be sad, with a look on his face that said, "Come on, comfort me!"
