Forced to become a delicate companion of a paranoid lord

It was very warm in the inn, and Xie Wei was wrapped tightly. At first he felt very comfortable, but after a while he felt a little stuffy. After entering the inn, he kept leaning on Sal's shoulder. He could only hear them talking, but could not see people or things.

Aldrich invited Thrall to follow him to the lounge upstairs that was reserved for their mercenary group to wait for Roland, but after entering the house, the Lord of the Snowfield did not put the person in his arms on the double sofa, nor did he even untie his heavy cloak.

Although he felt that the person being wrapped might feel uncomfortable, he did not say anything.

After treating Kelly's brother Noy, Loran first lowered his temperature, then thought for a while and gave Kelly a bottle of medicine.

Brother Noy's symptoms are somewhat serious, and the medicine prepared previously can only provide temporary relief. He needs to think of which herbs may be more effective.

"I hope you can stay in the inn with your brother first. This bottle of potion can only relieve his symptoms. I have to think of other ways to completely cure him." Roland touched Noy's forehead, whose fever had subsided, and suggested gently to Kelly.

The weather is too cold, and the children can’t stand this kind of tossing and turning.

"Thank you, thank you, it's really a bother to you." Kelly's heart, which had been hanging on his shoulders, was finally at ease after his brother's fever subsided. Now he was even more grateful to hear Roland's words.

He took out his wallet from the pocket under his soft armor, opened it and asked a little embarrassedly: "Excuse me, how much should I pay for the consultation?"

There were about a dozen silver coins in the blond knight's purse. Roland reached out and took one and said with a smile: "One silver coin will be enough."

Kelly was stunned for a moment, then opened his mouth in disbelief.

My God, they have spent a gold coin and dozens of silver coins in the past few days (1 gold = 100 silver, 1 silver = 1000 copper), but Noy's high fever has not been reduced.

Now it only costs one silver coin!

After putting the silver coins into the small leather bag at his waist, Roland stood up and left the room. Benjie had just come to see him, and the Lord of the Snowfield was waiting to see him in the mercenaries' lounge.

Loran didn't know what the lord wanted to see him about, but it couldn't be anything bad. No matter how many times the Empire and the Far North had fought, the Parasos would only drive the Imperial army out of the snowfields and never crossed the Fugan Rift to invade the Empire.

The Parasos believe in Nayasos, the goddess of the snow mountains. As followers of Nayasos, the Parasos need to serve the snow mountains for their entire lives. All Parasos do not like to leave the snowfields. On the one hand, it is because of their beliefs, and on the other hand, people from other countries fear the power of the Parasos, despise their primitive barbarism, and particularly exclude and belittle them.

The last time the Paraso people left the snowfield was to retaliate against the invaders. Why did they leave the snowfield this time?

It's really curious.

The first thing Roland saw when he entered the lounge was Aldridge rushing in front of him. Before he could hug him, Roland looked at him unkindly and whispered: "There are guests here, don't embarrass me, otherwise..."

Before he could finish, Aldridge immediately stepped aside and made way for him.

Roland glared at the man with the worthless smile again, and then looked at the Lord of the Snowfield.

Fortunately, the Lord of the Snowfield was not paying attention to them at all. He was saying something to the person who was wrapped tightly in his arms.

Luo Lan looked at the wrapped man, then at the slightly humble Lord of the Snowfield, and became even more curious!

"Hello, I'm Luo Lan, I heard you wanted to see me."

Sitting on the sofa opposite Sal, Roland's attitude towards the Lord of Snowfield was obviously not as respectful as Benjie and Aldrich.

Aldrich stood to his right, standing straight, his posture no less impressive than that of the Imperial Royal Knights.

Sal didn't pay attention to these details. He seemed to be enduring something at the moment and looked very irritable.

"Before we chat, I think you should untie your companion's cloak. There are plenty of fire crystals in the inn. Your companion will probably feel very uncomfortable if he is wrapped like this."

Thrall was a little unhappy, but when he heard that Xie Wei would feel uncomfortable, he reluctantly untied his cloak.

The cloak was thrown aside, and Aldridge and Loran only saw the thin back with long platinum hair.

Xie Wei had been discussing with Thrall before, asking him to take off his cloak, but no matter what he said, Thrall would not agree. Now someone spoke for him, and Thrall actually listened to him.

Xie Wei was very grateful to this kind man and wanted to turn around to see what he looked like, but Sal pushed him back.

Xie Wei: "..."

Thrall looked at the young magician opposite him. He could feel the huge magic power that did not match his age.

He is so young but already has the strength close to that of a great magician. No wonder he dares to open an inn near the Fugang Rift.

After assessing the other party's strength, Thrall said directly: "I would like to ask you to make a few sets of magic props for my partner. He is in poor health and cannot adapt to the cold of the Tajiyama Snowfield. I have brought all the materials. We will stay here until the props are made before entering the snowfield."

Ryan heard from the bounty hunter who entered the snowfield that the magic props made by Roland, the owner of the Rift Valley Inn, are among the best in the entire continent.

But if you want to ask him to make magic props, you need to pay him a satisfactory amount.

Just as Roland was about to say something, Sal added another sentence.

"The reward is the location of two ancient ruins."

"Deal." Roland's lips curled up, obviously very satisfied with the reward.

The two men completed the deal without any delay. Loran took Aldridge out to arrange accommodation for them, while Sal and Shevi stayed in the lounge.

After the door of the lounge was closed, Sal carefully put Xie Wei on the sofa, squatted beside Xie Wei's legs, took off his boots, and then held Xie Wei's cold feet with his hands.

Xie Wei struggled for a while but failed to get free so he just let him do it. Anyway, ever since he found out that he couldn't keep his hands and feet warm, this guy has been doing this for no reason. He was a little embarrassed at first but now he's used to it.

"We'll go back to the territory later. Without magic items, you'll get sick." Sal explained dryly, but did not mention a word about why he didn't untie Xie Wei's cloak just now.

"Yeah." Xie Wei didn't really want to pay attention to him. He slumped down on the sofa and closed his eyes tiredly.

Sal squatted there without saying a word, quietly warming Xie Wei's feet. His hands were very broad, and although there were thick calluses on his palms, which were not very comfortable covering his skin, Xie Wei had to admit that they were really warm, better than the hot packs in his previous life.

Xie Wei lay there until Aldridge knocked on the door and said the room was ready, then he was wrapped up again and carried out of the lounge.

There was still some warmth left on his feet after he put on the boots again. Xie Wei felt a little shaken in his heart, but this hesitation was soon suppressed in his heart because of his current unfree posture.

He is a person with a sound personality, not a mindless doll. He will not allow himself to be treated like a canary locked in a cage to be admired and played with by his owner all his life.
