Chapter 168 The History of the Winter Meeting
At Xiwei's kind invitation.
The two Asian girls had the real feast of their lives for the first time in their lives.
Since all ingredients from Fort Rod were used, Xiwei had no intention of saving and asked the soldier to place a knife on the chef's neck, so he could be extravagant as much as he wanted.
There are seven or eight kinds of delicious monster meat on the dining table, steamed, boiled, and grilled, all in color and flavor.
There are also a dazzling array of sweet pastries and tempting fruits.
Drinks also include juice and coconut goat milk to choose from.
At first, Bai Yao and You Ye were relatively reserved.
But as time goes by.
The senses of taste and smell coupled with hunger and the yearning for food can no longer be resisted simply by relying on will.
After the dinner, White Harrier lay face-up on the sofa with his belly bulging out without any image.
You Ye is better than her and can barely sit still.
Xiwei couldn't help but smile slightly when he saw You Ye and Bai Yao looking embarrassed.
I thought that no matter what, they were just two young girls. How deep could the city go?
"Can I ask you a few questions?" Seeing that now was the best opportunity, Xiwei said while the iron was hot.
"Tell me more about what your winter will be like?"
"Hmph... I wasn't going to answer your question originally, but... now that you've kindly invited us and treated us to a big dinner... ahem -"
Bai Yao touched his belly, panted, and sat up from the chair with difficulty.
She cleared her throat and said with a serious face: "Then I will force myself to tell you."
Youye didn't stop him this time. She looked at Xiwei calmly, with a little exploration and curiosity.
The dining room of the castle was very quiet, and the flames on the candlesticks danced gracefully.
Only the girl's clear and tactful words could be heard around her.
"Actually, the Winter Club was not called the Winter Club before. After all, how could it have such a rustic name~"
"We used to be called the Asian Renaissance Alliance. Humph, isn't it very impressive!" Bai Yao smiled proudly and crossed her arms for a while, but soon became weak again because she was too strong.
"I grew up in a small town orphanage. Grandma Callista took in many demi-humans."
"At that time, except for the occasional lack of food, we were happy most of the time."
There were memories in Bai Yao's eyes and a smile on his lips, but the smile soon dimmed.
"Until one day, a slave owner came to the orphanage and said he wanted to buy us away and asked Grandma Calista to pay for it."
"Grandma Calista didn't want to do it, so she angrily drove the slave owner away."
"As a result, that night, the slave owner led a group of ruffians into the orphanage. Grandma Calista was hit in the head with a stick, fell to the ground, and shouted anxiously, telling us to run away."
White Harrier's expression became a little sad, she lowered her head and looked at her toes, her wings drooping behind her.
You Ye noticed Bai Yao's sadness and gently held her hand.
"But how old were we at that time? It was windy, raining, lightning and thunder outside. It was good to be able to run instead of cowering in a corner in fear."
"Those gangsters chased us all the way, getting closer and closer. I had no choice but to climb up the tree with my friends. Amidst the lightning and thunder, the gangsters did not dare to get close to the big tree."
"I knew it was very dangerous, so I climbed to the highest point, hoping to help everyone block it."
"Sure enough, not long after, I was struck by lightning..."
Having said this, Bai Yao showed a complicated smile on his face.
She spoke calmly, no longer careless and carefree as before.
"But I didn't die. Instead, I accidentally awakened my abilities. I killed the ruffians who were chasing us."
"When I returned to the orphanage, Grandma Calista had no breath. I electrocuted the intruders, and formed the Demi-human Renaissance Alliance with the remaining friends, hiding in Rhodes territory."
"Later I met another awakened demi-human, her name was Qia, and she also joined us."
"Because we have mastered special abilities, we can find a lot of food every day. Sometimes I fly to nobles' homes to steal them, and sometimes they electrocute monsters, so our life is pretty good."
"It's just that death still happens all the time, including diseases, wild beasts, and human slave hunting teams. Qiya and I couldn't protect everyone all the time, until one day we heard about Midwinter Town, a paradise for demi-humans."
"I don't think it's appropriate to go directly without understanding, but Chia is very stubborn, and she left with most of the demi-humans."
Bai Yao glanced at Xiwei, feeling a little embarrassed.
"Not long after, I heard that Late Winter Town was destroyed by you. I was still very angry at the time. It wasn't until some real news about Late Winter Town came from Winter City that I realized how naive I was."
"Later I met You Ye, and together with the remaining six friends, we changed the Demi-human Renaissance Alliance into the Winter Meeting, and we were ready to wait for Otto to pick us up and go to Winter City, until now."
"As for how I was caught, it's because I stole something and sneaked into Rodburg three days ago..."
Bai Yao's story ended here, her mood gradually recovered, and she said with a smile:
"Lord, if you sincerely invite us, all of us in the Winter Society will seriously consider joining your command~"
"And the same goes for You Ye, you have to think about it carefully!"
It was obviously a plea, but when it came to Bai Yao's mouth, it turned into asking Xiwei to invite him.
It seems that these chips are not enough.
Bai Yao hugged You Ye next to him and smiled playfully in the other's astonished eyes:
"Let me tell you, my Youye is doing great. She sleeps softly and softly while holding her in her arms at night. It's super comfortable... uh uh uh..."
Bai Yao couldn't continue to speak, her mouth had been tightly covered by You Ye who looked ashamed and angry.
Xiwei glanced at Youye in surprise.
After all, this girl always looks expressionless.
He didn't even say a word, he was quiet.
I didn't expect to be defeated by the White Harrier.
Maybe this is mutual growth and mutual restraint.
Speaking of You Ye, Xiwei also turned his attention.
"You Ye, you have an ability called Shadow Follower, right? Can you show me how to use it?"
When You Ye heard Xi Wei's words, ripples appeared in her eyes that had returned to calmness.
She didn't know how the man in front of her knew her abilities.
Obviously she didn't say anything.
But now that I have decided to join Winter City.
It is also inevitable to meet the ruler of Winter City openly.
So although she was still confused, she still showed off her skills openly.
She stood up, walked calmly behind Xi Wei, and stood in Xi Wei's shadow under the watchful eyes of Loli and Roy.
Then it silently turned into a black shadow and melted into it.
The dark night disappeared.
To be precise, he disappeared into Xi Wei's shadow.
Relying on the Sky Knight's keen insight and foresight.
Xiwei could feel You Ye in the shadow behind him.
He stood up and walked around, and You Ye also followed him in the shadow.
Until Xiwei stood under the bright light, the shadow was almost too thin to be seen.
Only then did Youye reappear from Xiwei's shadow.
Xiwei probably understood. He looked at the cat-eared girl who had sat back on the chair and asked:
"This is a tracking skill, right?"
"As long as the other party has a shadow, can you always follow him regardless of obstacles?"
"It can also be used for traveling."
Youye nodded and said the first words he came here.
Her voice was somewhat magnetic, like a warbler's cry.
That alluring tone was like a feather, gently caressing the listener's ears, making people feel itchy.
Chapter completed!
