Start from Fulilian

"Eh???"

The naturally naive Miss Giant Lich had no idea what was happening and was dragged outside in a daze...

Soharu (Want Repuaqua): 129 people live just to have fun

When I came to my senses, I was already sitting in a hot pot restaurant like a good baby.

"Wiz, here's the menu. What would you like to eat?" Ivan handed over a menu with hand-drawn pictures nailed to a light wooden board.

Wiz waved his hands repeatedly, "How can that be? Mr. Ivan, you've already spent the money, so just order what you like..."

"You're wrong."

"Ok?"

"You treated me to this meal, so the money I paid is a loan to you. You still have to pay it back."

Huh? Forced loan!?

The ahoge on Wiz's head twitched uneasily.

Ivan continued, "If you don't order, I'll just order these expensive dishes that are obviously meant to rip you off. Like the Imperial Jade Wine, the Emerald White Jade Soup, and the Gathering of Heroes. Give me one portion of each."

After saying this, he pretended to take the menu back, but was stopped by Wiz.

“…Extravagance is unacceptable!!”

Wiz's attitude was quite tough.

But this state didn't last more than two seconds, and he returned to his usual soft and cute appearance, saying in a tactful tone: "I'm sorry, I'm not blaming you, Mr. Ivan, it's just that making money is not easy, there's no need to waste it on this. Let's just order the regular dishes."

After saying that, she carefully looked at the menu, selected a few cost-effective dishes, and turned to ask Ivan's opinion on each one.

At such a close distance, I could smell a pleasant fragrance from her, but perhaps because she had lived in poverty for too long, she didn't even dare to order slightly expensive meat dishes.

It was added by Ivan.

Are you kidding? If you don’t eat meat in hotpot, you can eat hairy hotpot.

"Mr. Ivan, is there anything else you would like to add?"

"No, that's it. We'll talk about it after we finish eating."

This hot pot restaurant has a very good reputation and the service attitude is above average. All the dishes were placed quickly, and there was a place in the middle of the table engraved with a fire magic circle to place the pot.

Powered by magic crystal, environmentally friendly and smoke-free, simple and concise.

As the magic circle was activated, the soup base in the pot gradually boiled, steaming and fragrant.

Wiz looked at the boiling soup, his eyes gleaming with anticipation.

Ivan skillfully picked up a piece of mutton, dipped it in the pot for a few seconds, then dipped it in the seasoning and put it in his mouth. The tender slice of meat spread on the tip of his tongue, and the delicious taste instantly filled his mouth.

He nodded slightly in satisfaction and said to Wiz, "Try it, it tastes very good."

Wiz hesitantly picked up a piece of freshly harvested cabbage and carefully put it into the pot, nervously watching the vegetables tumbling in the pot. When the vegetables were cooked, he picked up another piece of cooked lamb and took a light bite, a happy expression on his face.

“It’s really delicious!”

For a hungry girl who has been relying on candied white radish to maintain her life signs these days, the current situation can be considered extremely happy.

It would be nice if I could marry Mr. Ivan and not have to go hungry every day.

Eh?

Why did this thought suddenly pop up in my mind?

Am I the kind of cheap woman who is easy to get and can be married off with just a hot pot meal?!

Wiz's cheeks instantly turned red, and she quickly lowered her head, trying to hide her panic.

Ivan looked at Wiz's reaction, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, but he didn't say anything.

The atmosphere in the hot pot restaurant became a little subtle. Wiz tried to focus on the food and put some ingredients into the pot. However, the strange thought just now kept lingering in her mind.

"Mr. Ivan, do you often come to this hot pot restaurant?" Wiz tried to find a topic to break the awkwardness.

"Occasionally. The food in this restaurant is delicious and the environment is also okay." Ivan replied.

As they ate hot pot and chatted about everyday topics, Weiss gradually relaxed and stopped thinking about those strange thoughts. However, she seemed to have some other thoughts in her mind.

The ingredients in the pot were getting less and less, and they had almost finished eating. The feeling of having their stomachs filled was a real joy on earth.

Wiz looked at the empty plate in front of her, feeling a little emotional. This hot pot meal not only satisfied her taste buds, but also made her feel particularly relaxed.

"Mr. Ivan, thank you for treating me to hot pot today." Wiz said sincerely.

"Don't forget, you treated me, so you still have to pay me back," Ivan reminded.

"Yes Yes Yes……"

Wiz smiled, looking very happy, and said confidently, "I will definitely work hard to make money!"

After Ivan paid the bill, the two walked out of the hot pot restaurant.

It was already autumn, and the air outside was a little chilly, yet it felt exceptionally fresh. Wiz took a deep breath, narrowed his eyes slightly, and enjoyed this beautiful moment.

Her long brown hair fluttered gently in the breeze, and a few strands brushed against her cheeks.

She reached out her hand and tucked her hair behind her ear. She looked down at her robe with her brown eyes and gently smoothed out some wrinkles. Her figure looked particularly plump in the robe, and she exuded a unique charm in her every move.

Ivan looked at Wiz. Sure enough, he felt much more energetic after eating, so he asked, "What are your plans next?"

Wiz raised her chin slightly, her eyes twinkling. "Of course I'll be working hard at the store! Adventurers have more money these days, so they'll definitely come buy my wares!"

As she spoke, she excitedly pumped her fist, full of anticipation.

"Okay, then I wish you a prosperous business."

"Yeah!" Wiz nodded vigorously, then turned and walked towards the potion shop.

Her steps were brisk, and her aho-hair bounced up and down with her steps.

After walking for a while, Weiss suddenly remembered something. She stopped, turned around, and gave Ivan a bright smile.

"Mr. Ivan, next time I will definitely treat you to a meal with my own money!" After saying that, she turned around again and walked quickly towards the potion shop.

How should I put it? She's the kind of woman who makes you feel better just by looking at her, Wiz.

What did Celie tell me before we set out? I can't look for any questionable people, so Wiz shouldn't fall into that category.

Rather than letting her remain single for a long time or become cheap to a stranger in the future, it is better for her to be taken into the Crystal Palace by myself.

People live to eat, drink and have fun. Why are there so many concerns? Even someone who has been an emperor can't enjoy himself. I'm just going to do a Thomas Turn.

Ivan, whose desires were constantly purified by Aqua, became more and more restless.

After all, what is being purified is only desire, and the body that has long been accustomed to fighting day and night feels like it is almost full!

Suqing (want Repuaqua): 130 Philen is still on his way on horseback.

Just when Ivan was still thinking about those risqué things, someone suddenly hugged his arm.

Judging from the signals transmitted back to his brain through the nerves, the touch was undoubtedly that of a woman, and since it could bypass his vigilance, it was definitely not some random person.

Ivan turned his head and the first thing that caught his eye was the aqua blue hair.

Well, it’s Aqua, who is worse than a cat or a dog.

In other words, her status was higher than his, and she had no hostility, so he was not alerted.

“I caught the guy who deserted the battlefield!” Aqua waved and shouted at Darkness and Megumin who were not far away, regardless of how conspicuous such behavior would be.

And as if afraid that Ivan would run away again, she further clamped his arms tightly in her arms.

"..."

How should I put it? Although it looks like a plot that gives benefits, it has no meaning at all if you don’t feel anything in your heart.

Huihui trotted over and complained, "Hey, didn't you say you'd help out this morning? And yet you suddenly slipped away halfway through with some excuse? How can a hero desert a battlefield?"

"Because I'm not a hero, I'm just an ordinary man with a sword." Ivan replied with a smile, "Compared to these, have you bought your clothes yet?"

"of course."

Huihui glanced around and suddenly leaned over to Ivan's ear and said, "I bought a set of very sexy underwear..."

"Oh."

"Don't you have anything else to say besides oh?"

"What else can I say? I told you to wear me when you get home?" Ivan complained. "Actually, the best underwear is the one that suits the current style, not the underwear that's beyond your age range. Every stage of life has its own unique aesthetic. Isn't the most precious thing about a lolita the innocence and youthfulness of a young lotus just beginning to emerge?"

"Why are you still talking about this so seriously?! And don't call me a loli. According to the standards of the Crimson Demon Clan, I'm an adult! I'm a woman of childbearing age—"

Huihui jumped up like a cat whose tail was stepped on.

In fact, she was planning to use underwear as bait to make Ivan her magic power bank step by step, but she didn't expect that she would be teased before she even got to the point.

Damn, is this how experienced people handle things with ease?

Unable to continue the conversation smoothly, Huihui chose to keep quiet.

Darkness also came over at that moment.

"After buying daily necessities and clothes, there is still some money left from the money you gave."

She handed back the remaining money, which was heavy and still had plenty left. Unlike some people who were eager to use up all the special funds, Darkness was a female Crusader with integrity written all over her face.

Use as much as you need.

I will never embezzle public funds.

Unfortunately, he is a pervert. He prefers to write "upright" on his thighs rather than on his face.

"Speaking of which, Ivan, don't you need a change of clothes? It would be very troublesome to spend time washing and drying them every day, right?"

"No need. This equipment is enchanted and highly recognizable, making it easy for my lost companions to find me."

"Ivan, do you have any accomplices?"

Aqua fell into a brief moment of thought. "It seems like there were indeed a few people around you at that time."

"Companions, not accomplices. Don't make it seem like a criminal gang."

◇

"Miss Phelan, what are you doing?"

Youyou looked at Philen, who was sitting against a tree trunk by the campfire and wiping some strange small components with a cloth, and asked curiously.

"Just maintaining the weapons."

"A weapon? It doesn't look like a sword. Could it be a wand?"

"almost."

After wiping it, Philen began to practice assembling the sniper rifle to maintain the feel of it. His hands danced flexibly. He first picked up the barrel and inserted it into the slot of the gun body, making a crisp "click" sound.

Hold the buttstock and combine it with the gun body, then install the scope, rotate the adjustment knob, and insert the magazine.

The movements were smooth and flowing, without a trace of drag.

This sniper rifle was a birthday gift from Fulilian, and she has cherished it very much over the years.

She has very strong talents in magic shielding, magic perception, and casting speed and distance, but her ability to learn new magic is a little poor, and she only knows a few tricks in total.

Hiding and acting as a one-shot kill sniper is a good route.

Of course, if she gets close to the enemy, she doesn't mind letting them see other fighting styles.

"By the way, Miss Phelan, what are we having for dinner? We're out of dry food."

"immediately."

Philen picked up the sniper rifle he had just assembled, and without even the aid of a scope, he relied solely on his magical perception to lock onto a bear-shaped monster in the distance that looked edible.

"boom."

The moment the trigger was pressed, the monster fell to the ground, and Philen also saw the scene of it falling to the ground through the scope.

But Youyou didn't have that long of magical perception nor eyesight comparable to a scope, so she had no idea what was going on.

It was not until Philen used levitation to bring back a monster bear with a hole in its chest that Youyou finally understood everything.
