Forced to become a delicate companion of a paranoid lord

Gemier, the captain of the Stone Forest Tower's guard team, is Gesan's elder sister. After Gesan went to work at Naya Castle, the two never met again because their rest times were always at odds.

There was no need for rotation in the camp, so at night Gesan would go to the platform of the watchtower to find Gemier.

It’s nothing, I just want to chat with my sister.

"The last time I went home on duty, Ata and Am said you had your own contracted monster." Gemi took a comb and straightened Gesan's newly untied braids. She did not ask her sister about her daily life and work in Naya Castle, nor did she ask her if there was anything that was not going well.

Because there was no need to ask, Gesan would talk to her endlessly. Last night, he pulled her aside to tell her a lot about His Highness Shiyavi. All he talked about was how great His Highness Shiyavi was. The look of a fanatical admirer was enough to show that she must be living a good life in Naya Castle.

Maybe it was because he talked too much, or maybe it was because he was exposed to the cold wind on the watchtower for too long last night, Gesan's throat was a little uncomfortable today, so he was very quiet at the moment, drinking a bowl of hot potato soup.

Gemier also temporarily moved to the watchtower. She lived on the highest platform. There were more than twenty guards living on this platform with her, both men and women. Now everyone was drinking potato soup.

That night in the Stone Forest Tower, the cabins on every platform were filled with the aroma of food. It had never been possible to have a snack on a winter night, so the guards held their wooden bowls and sipped the potato soup with great care, thinking that this winter was really comfortable.

It will definitely get better in the future.

The potato soup was distributed to each platform by Gesan and the chefs of the winter patrol team. It was also distributed to the guards on night patrol. Xie Wei commissioned the chefs to prepare it after dinner.

This winter everyone was not hungry, but they were not completely full either. Thinking of the high consumption due to the cold weather, Xie Wei discussed with Sal to add an extra meal for the guards on duty at night. Although it was only potato soup, for the Paraso people, this bowl of soup was more of a beginning than a bowl of soup.

A beginning that foreshadowed that after this winter, the people of Parasau would no longer worry about food and would be able to have enough to eat every meal. It was a beginning that originally only existed in dreams.

The grain seeds extracted from the system can thrive even in the harsh winter climate of dozens of degrees below zero. However, there are not enough materials to make magic rods to maintain the temperature control magic circle, so the existing temperature control magic circle cannot cover all the fields, resulting in a large part of the fields being often buried under the thick snow.

But what is amazing is that as long as the magicians clear the snow every seven or eight days, the cold-resistant wheat and rice that were pressed to the ground by the snow will quickly stand up again and regain their vitality.

Therefore, every Paraso person who has witnessed the growth of cold-resistant grains is full of confidence in the future.

Now, there are temperature-control magic circles in the cabins on each platform of the watchtower, as well as fire magic crystals sent by His Highness Shiavi, but the indoor temperature is still maintained at a level that is neither too warm nor too cold.

This temperature will not make people too cold to sleep, nor will it be too warm to make people too comfortable to sleep too deeply and relax their vigilance. The most important thing is to save fire magic crystals.

Gesan drank half a bowl of soup, and in such a low indoor temperature, he began to sweat on his forehead and nose.

She turned her back to Gamier, holding her large wooden bowl, poked a piece of meat with the fork in her hand, passed it behind her to feed her sister, then swallowed the potato pieces in her mouth before answering.

"Well, we met in the Misty Forest. We got along very well, so we signed a contract. I named it Reggie. The little thing was still a cub, so I couldn't take it with me when I went out. I fostered it in the castle's animal shed."

"I may be rotated to Goode City to take charge of other things next spring. You can bring Reggie to play with Sadie then." Sadie, Gmi's contracted monster, is a small flying monster about one meter long.

It likes to stay at the top of the watchtower. When Gemier is resting, it will supervise the entire camp.

After combing Gesan's hair, Gemier picked up her potato soup which had cooled down a little and was placed beside her. She did not savor it carefully. After drinking a few big gulps, she patted her quilt and let Gesan go to sleep first.

Like everyone else, she first went outside to wash her and Gesang's bowls with snow, then took out a piece of cut leather and embroidered words on it.

Many people in the room took out leather of the same material but different sizes and began to embroider things on them. Gesang couldn't sleep, so he went over to take a look and found that some people were embroidering patterns on the leather, while others were embroidering blessing prayers in the Paraso language on the leather.

After a careful observation, Gesan found that these leathers of different sizes seemed to be a set of clothes when put together.

Gemier took the time to glance at her sister who was squatting next to her and smiled.

"His Highness Shiyavi brought us many things, and we wanted to give him something, but we couldn't find a presentable gift. We heard that His Highness Shiyavi was going to explore the ruins, so we decided to make him a set of magic robes."

"The wizard robe that the magician with long black hair wears is so handsome. Your Highness Shiyavi will look even better in the popular wizard robe of the empire." Another Paraso male warrior who was embroidering a pattern shook the leather in his hand, and then pointed to the embroidered pattern to Gesan.

"Isn't it beautiful? Because we want to embroider beautiful patterns, we use thin leather, but this kind of monster skin is fireproof and waterproof. We refer to the design of the black-haired magician's robe. It is not only beautiful but also practical."

Gesan can't embroider anything, but she thinks they are great at embroidering anything.

After looking at the clock hanging in the corner, Gesan lay back on his sister's bed and pulled the quilt over himself.

His Highness Shiavi will be going to the ruins tomorrow. It seems that everyone wants to finish the robe all night. She doesn’t know if they can catch up. Anyway, she can’t help, so she will go to bed first because she has to get up early tomorrow.

The hidden ruins of Dagambi near the Stone Forest Tower did not contain what Yrel was looking for. In fact, Yrel did not know what the holy object that could break the curse was. The only thing he was sure of was that this holy object was not a fictional object in mythology, but a real object.

Since this holy relic only exists in the ruins and cannot be taken out of the ruins, all the ruins known today, except for the ruins in the Far North Territory and the Empire, have been explored by Yriel and Raymond.
