Traveling through time, I'm making pancakes in Warhammer

Howard and Adeline stared at each other for a long time, and then Howard pulled the quilt up to cover his head.

When you encounter difficulties, sleep well.

What else could he do? He didn't think that this elf would be so stupid as to jump in and find him without any preparation. What else could I do besides sleeping when my house was robbed by the elves?

After covering himself with the quilt, Howard heard the sound of the elf jumping into the room, as light as a kitten landing on the ground.

This was the sound made by the Eldar without restraint. Howard knew that the Space Eldar were natural assassins. If the Eldar really wanted to sneak in, they could easily leave no footprints in the snow and land silently.

Then Howard heard the Eldar walk all the way to his bed and stop.

Adeline looked at Howard, who had his head covered with the quilt, and said, "Your reaction seems too calm."

Howard lifted the quilt and opened his eyes: "Will it be useful for me to yell now?"

Adeline nodded: "It works."

Howard jumped out of bed and rushed to the door, trying to open it and run out, but the doorknob wouldn't budge. So Howard started hammering on the wall next door to Arabelle's bedroom, yelling, "Kougui! Arabelle! Save my Kouji!"

But still nothing happened.

So Howard turned back to Adeline and said, "Look, I just tried it, and it didn't work."

After watching Howard's performance, Adeline covered her mouth and chuckled, saying, "You really exude a kind of lovable stupidity." Then she said, "Human, do you know why I wanted to kill you?"

"You elves are forbidden from eating pancakes?" Howard started to talk nonsense and insisted on delaying the matter.

"I don't doubt the effectiveness of your snacks, but that's the crux of the matter." Adeline ignored Howard's cold joke and said, "The scariest thing is happiness without a price. Everything in this world has a price. If something seems to be available for free, it's either a trap, or the price will be beyond everyone's imagination."

Howard thought to himself, I know what you mean, but my ability is not what you think it is.

"If I kill you, your soul will be mine for safekeeping and research. This will benefit everyone." Adeline showed Howard the gemstone on the necklace hanging on her chest. "But subsequent developments tell me that you don't seem to have a soul, so there are even more doubts about you."

"And... there's one more thing." Adeline suddenly and silently put her face in front of Howard's, like a scary scene in a horror movie, with the tip of her nose almost touching Howard's. Then Adeline looked directly into Howard's eyes and asked, "My people are not common in human society and are very good at hiding themselves. How did you recognize my race at first sight?"

Oh no!

Howard's heart skipped a beat. He was usually very good at judging the truth from the slightest loopholes in other people's words, including Guilliman in the Trial of Slaanesh and... He didn't expect that this time he accidentally let the cat out of the bag and was caught by others.

"I... I saw some information about them in a guide to identifying aliens published by the Empire. Eldar are a relatively common alien. They have pointy ears, are tall, have no body fat, and are like..." Howard wanted to say "like a bean sprout," but then he changed the subject, thinking that there might not be such a thing as a bean sprout in 40k. "I heard there are Eldar in the Regent's palace."

"That's a reasonable explanation." Adeline nodded, then stuck out her tongue and licked the sweat beads sliding down Howard's forehead with the tip of her tongue.

"But this smell is the smell of lies," said Adeline.

Howard was too lazy to complain about this scene which gave him a strong sense of déjà vu. Instead, he thought to himself that Slaanesh was indeed created by you guys. Slaanesh's demon Freya licked my face when we met, and you licked my face too. Do you Eldar communicate with your tongues?

"Then what exactly are you doing here?" Howard finally couldn't help it.

Adeline's answer was simple and straightforward: "Take you to a place that is more suitable for you."

"Oh." Howard agreed, then turned around, opened the closet and started rummaging.

"...I don't understand what you are doing?" Adeline asked.

I'm stalling for time! Howard thought to himself, but replied, "Aren't you taking me with you? I'll take two sets of clothes with me."

However, after searching for a long time, Howard firstly did not see anyone coming to rescue him due to the delay, and secondly, he did not find any spare clothes.

Because this was not his wardrobe, but Lyanna's, which was filled with girls' underwear. Judging from the size of these clothes, Lyanna was a girl who was shorter than him, but thinner. Among the 40k people whose average height was over two meters, Lyanna's physique could be considered thin.

After searching for a long time without finding any clothes, he ended up messing up Lyanna's wardrobe. After a moment's silence, Howard stood up, walked over to Adeline and said, "Take me away."

If Arabelle discovered that she had messed up Lyanna's wardrobe without planning, her fate would not be much better than being taken away by the Eldar.

Adeline pulled out a whip and swung it, and the whip wrapped around Howard's body, then stretched infinitely, and finally tied Howard up from top to bottom like a dumpling.

Then, Adeline took off her gloves and stuffed them into Howard's mouth, then picked up Howard and jumped out of the window silently.

But as soon as he landed, Howard heard Arabelle's voice.

"Hey, I didn't give you permission to take him away."

Howard and Adeline looked toward the source of the sound and saw Arabelle leaning against a weathered and peeling wall. An old street lamp illuminated the limited cone of area below. Arabelle stood in the dim light, striking a match and lighting a cigarette for herself.

"How could that be... You should still be asleep." Adeline seemed a little confused.

However, she quickly adjusted her words and attempted to negotiate with Arabelle: "This human is full of lies and plays mad and stupid. The secrets behind him are beyond your mortal imagination. Letting me take him away is for your own good."

You are amazing! You are noble!

Howard squirmed in protest beneath Adeline's grasp, thinking, "You don't think I'm lying to protect myself, do you?" "I've even met Slaanesh himself and signed a contract. If I tell the truth and don't run into Old Man Huang, the worst that can happen is death and a job making pancakes before Slaanesh's throne. Slaanesh provides food and lodging, and the treatment is much better than in this lousy human empire."

I lied to protect you. Otherwise, if I tell the truth and Slaanesh takes me back, some of you will die, some will go crazy, some will be corrupted, especially you, a broken bean sprout. You will live a life worse than death, do you understand?
