Arknights, Suika's Messenger Journey
Page 160
That Saint of Kjerag, or maybe…"
"Miss Messenger, please be careful with your words." Although Moshi knew that the other party came from the outside world and did not believe in Kjerag's gods, he did not expect that the other party would be so straightforward.
Worried that her words would get out and cause a big mess, Moshi hurriedly interrupted her before she could say the name.
"Okay, okay. But I have to remind you that I'm Victoria's emissary, representing the will of the Royal Academy of Sciences. You'd better ask the person behind you to be more respectful. I don't care what you guys do, and I don't want to care. But don't bring me in. I have a bad temper when I wake up, and if I cause trouble, it won't be a good thing."
On the surface, Suika seemed to be referring to Brontao, because everyone in Kjerag knew that the relationship between the three tribes was not friendly.
But Moshi had a feeling that the other party was not talking about Brontao, but Nosis.
So she didn't respond, but respectfully raised her hand and pointed in a direction.
And there was the carriage she had prepared long ago.
Without any more pressure from Moshi to continue, Suika obediently got into the car.
The carriage traveled for nearly two hours before arriving at a farm.
After getting off the car, Suixiang sighed.
The reason is simple. Snow has been falling in Kjerag since last night.
Even in small towns, you can see snow piled up on the eaves of houses.
But this seemingly inconspicuous farm is so clean that it seems as if it has not been affected by the wind and snow at all.
"plz follow me."
After being taught a lesson by Suixiang, Moshi seemed much more respectful.
Perhaps he was afraid of hearing something that would make his scalp tingle and his back sweat from the other person, so after noticing Suika's soft-hearted personality, Mo Xi kept speaking according to her temperament.
Even when he reminded her on the way about the personalities of the head of the Brown Tao family and his right-hand men, that is, her sister and brother-in-law, he used a tone that would least arouse Suixiang's disgust.
Soon Moshi led Suika into the house through the main door.
Before entering the door, the temperature coming from inside makes people feel hot.
"The snowy mountains are not like the outside world, where there are no advanced high-tech gadgets.
It's just the experience passed down from generation to generation to keep warm.
Welcome, Ms. Ibuki Suika."
Just as Suika was looking around, a woman holding a pair of long tweezers and moving branches beside the stove not far away spoke, attracting her attention.
"Please take a seat! Coincidentally, I have some freshly heated wine here. Would you like to try it?"
After Suika walked up to her, the woman pointed to the empty space next to the stove.
Suika didn't say much, but sat down very naturally.
Then the woman poured a glass of warm wine and handed it to her.
After taking the wine glass and taking a sip, Suixiang raised her eyebrows.
"Good wine. I didn't expect Kjerag to have such a fine wine."
"Well, haven't you ever drunk it?
This wine is called "Spring in the Snowland" and was brewed by the winery founded by Enchiodis's father, the previous head of the Shivaash family.
It's just that there were some accidents that led to the closure of the winery, so the number of bottles of "Spring in Snowland" has decreased.
But as the chief of the Shivaash tribe, Enthyodis shouldn’t be without any…”
Suika didn't say anything, but in her heart she was admiring the fact that the people of the Brontao family were indeed worthy of being called Wolper.
He's been digging a hole for himself since the moment we met.
The first thing that made me realize that I love wine was definitely my behavior in the warm cabin last night.
After all, it was well known that Jian couldn't drink, and at that time, there was only her and herself at the table.
Then there is the relationship between Snow Spring and Shiva Ash.
If I were really an ordinary person who was not familiar with Shelag and came here for the first time, I would probably have a lower impression of Enthiotis.
After all, I said that I like to drink, but you, Enchiodis, actually kept the good wine for yourself and didn't give me some. What does this mean? It means that in your eyes, Enchiodis, I am not a distinguished guest at all.
"That's really abominable. When I go back today, I have to go find the head of Shivaash and ask for a few bottles..."
Chapter 293: Honest and Innocent Suika
"Speaking of which, I'm a little curious. Judging from your accent, it doesn't seem to be from Victoria, right?"
While Suika was drinking, Latatos suddenly asked.
Suika's eyes moved slightly
"Oh, the boss knows Victoria very well?"
Latatos shook her head and replied calmly:
"I can't say I know Victoria very well.
However, Kjerag's biggest route out of the mountain is on the Victoria side.
The Brontao family's territory is mountainous and forested, and they are the main exporter of furs to Kjerag. They have met many Victorians.
Ms. Ibuki Suika's name and accent are very different from the Victoria I know."
“Indeed, I am not from Victoria, but from Dayan, which is further east.
I accepted Ms. Alyssa's commission because I have a good personal relationship with her. By the way, Alyssa is the dean of the academy."
Suika said calmly.
"Then can you tell me about Dean Alyssa?
Of course, this is just my own curiosity. After all, not many people in Kjerag have studied abroad, and for us, the dean of the university has always been a very mysterious figure!
Latatos smiled, looking like a curious baby.
"Alyssa?
I can reveal some information, but... my mouth is a little dry..."
Suika shook the wine glass in her hand, a smile on her lips.
"Of course, you have stories and I have wine, right!" Latatos raised the bottle beside her and poured another glass for Suika.
"Elisa was invited by Grand Duke Caister from the Royal Academy of Sciences' university in Londinium specifically for the establishment of this new school. She was the dean of a school in Londinium.
Logically speaking, with her level, coming to this remote mountainous area is considered a demotion, which is impossible for ordinary people.
But she is a caring person who believes that even though it is located on the border of the empire, children here still have the right to receive higher education.
So I took the initiative to apply to come here to serve as the dean.
This time, after receiving an application from Shivaash, Alyssa felt that although Kjerag was a little poor and backward, he also had the right to receive an education.
So initially we planned to give out five places.
But Mr. Shivaash then wanted to purchase a few more places, and after discussion at the academy, they finally added two to five, giving Kjerag a total of ten places.
Only four of them belong to the Kalan trade."
Suika half-truthfully told the reason why she came here.
“I did hear that Enthiodis bought a batch of spots.
"I wonder if this quota can be changed to another owner?" Latatos asked immediately.
Hearing her words, Suika showed a surprised expression.
“From what I know, Kalan Trade spent a lot of money for these four places.
If you want to buy a spot from him, it will be difficult to achieve your goal at a fair price, but at a premium.
With all due respect, it would be better to wait a year. After all, the college recruits students every year, and the price is so high that it really isn’t worth it.”
After saying that, Suika guaranteed her the price that Enthiotis paid for the quota. Latatos' pupils contracted after hearing that. She did hear that Enthiotis spent a lot of money to buy the quota, but she didn't expect that the quota would be so expensive.
It was so expensive that even hearing the number made her feel heartbroken.
In her heart, she kept cursing Enthyodis as a prodigal son.
She didn't understand why Enchiodis would be willing to make such a huge investment when this money could have hired a group of high-level experts. Wasn't he afraid that it would all be wasted?
She was rarely conflicted about this.
However, she became more determined to get those free places.
"Ms. Suixiang, you're right. This price is indeed a bit uncomfortable for us, so I won't argue with it.
But Kjerag still has six spots.
By the way, since you are a guest, I have prepared a gift that I hope will satisfy you."
She looked at Suika and took out a box. The box was open at this time, and inside was a very delicate pure white fur.
She stared intently, trying to get some inside information from Suika.
“I have also discussed this matter with Mr. Enchiodis.
Ms. Elisa hopes that those who go to the academy will not be fools and mediocre people.
So before I left, I was asked to bring a test paper with me. There would be an exam in a month, and I would only select the students who passed and ranked at the top.
So ladies, if you are interested in this position, you can start preparing now.”
Suika reached out and pushed the fur back.
"This gift was originally intended for distinguished guests like you.
Besides, once a gift is given, there's no reason to take it back."
Latatos pushed the gift in front of Suika again.
"Speaking of which, I have a question. The test paper determines the fate of all Kjerag test takers. You're wearing it with you. What if it gets wet in the rain or something, and you can't see the test clearly? What if?"
Latatos showed an expression of concern for Kjerag and his people.
"I know what you're talking about, so I gave the test paper to the Black Knight. She said she would keep it in a safe place until the exam begins."
After hearing her words, Suika gave her an expression that said, "I knew this was going to happen, so I've already made arrangements."
But these words made Latatos feel like she was about to collapse.
After all, the Black Knight is Enchiotis's man. Now the test paper is in her hands, and Enchiotis will definitely send people to participate in the assessment later. Doesn't this mean that she will be both an examiner and a candidate.
But she didn't dare to be angry with the messenger in front of her, so she could only show an anxious look.
"Ms. Suika, don't you know that the Black Knight is from Shiva Ash's family? If she hands the test paper to Shiva Ash, then this test will be completely unfair to Kjerag."
Suixiang now showed a serious expression and took out the commemorative gold coin.
"I know a little about what you're saying, but I believe in the Black Knight's chivalry. In front of this commemorative gold coin, she promised me to protect the test paper from being read in advance, and she will definitely do it."
After hearing what Suika said, Latatos wanted to ask if she was a fool for still believing in chivalry.
She felt that she could not trust the Black Knight in this matter, and began to think about how to keep the test paper away from the eyes of Shivaash's family before the exam.
"Did you and the black knight leave the city yesterday to deal with this matter?"
Latatos continued questioning Suika while brainstorming, trying to find something that would benefit her.
“No, she had already said that she had arranged the test papers.
The reason I went out of town with her was simply because I was curious about her abilities, so I found a place outside the city to practice a bit…"
Suika's answer made Latatos's vision go dark again.
Chapter 294: The Messenger and Local Fast Food
Latatos could tell that the guy in front of her was a fan of the Black Knight.
What do you mean by going to the wild to practice? Isn't it just that there are too many people in the city and you feel embarrassed, so you go to the outskirts of the city where there are fewer people to chase stars?
Enthyodis is such a disgusting guy that he actually used the beauty trap on the envoy.
No wonder this young messenger was so biased towards the other party from the very beginning. It was because of this feeling.
When she thought of this, Latatos felt depressed.
Because my mind was not here, I didn't talk about anything else.
