On the raging flames, the internal organs and pieces of flesh were cruelly ripped off the victims.
"Hahaha! How do you feel when you have no power to resist and can only be burned by the fire?"
Griffith looked solemn as he stared at the figure behind the fire.
"I will eat all your flesh, your organs, and even your spinal fluid,
"Be the nourishment of my ambition!"
Griffith said with difficulty: "Well, Elodie..."
"Okay, the banquet of blood, meat and organs has begun! The first delicious offering to be sacrificed to me is you!"
"Elodi!"
"Ah what's the matter Griffith?"
"Please keep quiet when eating in the restaurant," Griffith covered his face and shook his head to the side in shame, "you will disturb other guests."
"..." The guests at the next table were looking directly at the two of them with speechless eyes.
"Ah! I'm sorry, I was so excited!" Elodie lowered her head quickly, "But, the intestines are so delicious! I finally know why ogres find internal organs delicious!"
After the Mage Tower was attacked on January 10, Beyelan officials were shocked. This was the first time in recent years that a Mage Tower in an important city was destroyed in the core territory. What's even worse is that the only one who can quickly dispatch extraordinary
The teleportation circle of the magician tower and the senior extraordinary person was also destroyed.
The Governor of the Maritime Area sent two nearby squadrons of land troops and a team of 5 Extraordinaries led by Winston, a senior mage from Sequence 7, at noon the next day to support them, and promised to arrange for an Extraordinary person to be in person as soon as possible.
Responsible for the mysterious and powerful cult apostle incident.
With such a powerful support force and a team of Beyonders who are familiar with the area, the two forces combined should have doubled the efficiency and results.
However, Winston insisted that his team be in charge of the port area and the city to conduct a thorough, comprehensive, and real investigation, and that the Connix team should step aside and be responsible for the safety of the upcoming Hanami memorial ceremony in Tsuruura Town.
Conix, the resident mage, would not agree to such a request under any circumstances. Otherwise, when the matter subsides, no matter whether the outcome is good or bad, the local resident mage will probably change his name to Winston.
The two were at loggerheads and argued endlessly in the temporary headquarters every day. The extraordinary person who was supposed to coordinate and command the two spellcasters had yet to decide on a candidate.
After a few days, Griffith, who was originally nervous, was helpless. The patrol and search plan he proposed was rejected by the two spellcasters in turn and was thrown into the corner to collect dust. Later, he could only patrol the Hepu Town area.
When I have free time, I go shopping with Elodie.
January 13th.
After finishing the work that made no progress that day, Griffith and Elodie came to a small restaurant. This small restaurant was built on a cliff by the sea. The comfortable sea breeze made the guests feel more comfortable, and they could still see
The setting sun slowly sinks into the distant sea.
The moment he walked in, the unique aroma tethered the trainee knight's stomach.
They put an iron mesh on the hot coals and waited until the meat and intestines were roasted to a golden color, and the sweet aroma was irresistible.
"You must also eat some vegetables, otherwise the nutritional medicine will be unbalanced." Griffith warned.
"Here we go again, don't be so stubborn! I am very important today? You must reserve your energy!"
Thinly sliced beef is rolled in a sauce of green onions, red oil and chili pepper. The aroma melts into your mouth. In addition to the barbecue, yellow croaker and pickled vegetables just picked up from the sea are stewed until golden.
Fish soup? It is extremely fragrant and delicious in the mouth. There are also pieces of fried golden fish, even the bones are crispy? It is so delicious to pop it into your mouth and chew it.
It's so delicious! If you can bring Galadia here to eat, she will definitely be very happy. Griffith exclaimed.
"Are you here, do you miss a woman?" Elodie asked in a low voice with a faint smile. "Griffith is also old!"
"No, no, it's not what you think," Griffith hurriedly denied.
"Why not," the girl punched him? "This kind of thing needs to be confessed openly? Show it off openly!"
How can that be done... Griffith almost had the expression written on his face.
Elodie hummed twice:
"I got a serious illness almost three years ago, and I almost died. During the most uncomfortable period, I was thinking, what a shame, I didn't do this or that, if only I could be given another chance.
Already~"
Is there still this matter? Griffith immediately asked with concern: "So how is the situation now?"
"The body is in great shape! The food is delicious!" Elodie gestured to her arm and said nonchalantly, "Don't look at my dad like that. He can still be reliable once in a while!"
Griffith's heart relaxed a little. However, some thoughts surged uncontrollably.
"What disease is it?"
"I don't know? We don't understand it, but it's very powerful anyway?" Elodie began to eat the grilled large intestine. "I heard that it is a disease unique to Neopolis people? It won't happen after adulthood.
If you do it again, Griffith, you don’t have to worry."
Dr. Zion is not a medical expert. His specialization in potions is more in the field of occultism, and treating diseases is not his specialty.
While he was at Homemonworth, he conducted some unpopular research, and was reprimanded and warned by the Magic Association for it. Judging from the time, Elodie fell ill around 1441, during which time Dr. Zion
They were probably still in Homemonworth. Later, their family moved to Pasha, a city in the south, and recently returned to Neopolis.
Pasha happens to be the location of Beacon where Amber studied.
Maybe it was a coincidence. Griffith thought quickly. The pleasant air and fresh and delicious food in the south are also very helpful for the patient's recovery. It is reasonable for Elodie and her family to move for this reason.
"Just tell me," Elodie kept waiting. "If you don't even tell me, who will listen to your little secrets?"
"This..." Griffith touched his nose.
"Is she a great beauty? Where are you from? How old are you?" Elodie's eyes sparkled, "Is she her?"
"Uh, ugh, that one is not human!"
"Ah, you pervert!" The girl was frightened, "I overestimated your lower limit."
"Elves, elves!" Griffith hurriedly explained, "Garadia from Canaan, you can see her if you come to Homemonworth."
"What? I thought it was the orc girl you met in the East or something, but she turned out to be the most cliche elf." Elodie spread her hands, "Then you have no chance."
"..."
"The combination of humans and elves can only inherit very few elven traits. Half-elves are almost the same as humans. In their eyes, we are on the same level as goblins and orcs." Elodie added in the smallest voice.
What, Griffith didn't hear clearly.
She started enlightening in a serious manner:
"Canaan is a kingdom of God on earth, more prosperous than Bijalam. Mixed bloods of elves and humans have no citizenship rights there.
"Every elf is beautiful, smart, and powerful. Their country has no disease and famine, no war and crime. The glory of the city will never go out. Flowers and fruits are constant all year round. The meaning of survival is just to explore the distant starry sky, the unknown and
The truth, this is what the book says,
"As for you, you are just a petty sergeant who is not even a knight. Your salary is only enough to eat a few good meals. You have almost no annuity. You don't know when you will die in a dangerous mission.
"The barriers and differences are so great that they are completely different species~
"And the lifespan of an elf is several times longer than yours! Can you bear to let people spend the rest of their lives in loneliness after you are done?"
"You guys are totally inappropriate. Stop thinking so much. What do people think of you?"
"Okay, okay," Griffith's mood became very depressed, "We get along very well."
"Maybe they just see you as an intermediary in the human world... Unequal love will not have good results."
You know so much. Griffith admired you for a moment, he didn't even think so far ahead.
Elodie's eyes became serious: "If you really want to win her over, you have to bring an endless army of undead monsters, use a trebuchet to smash open their forest, smash their dog heads, and then capture the girl and stab her
Stab her and let her turn into an evil succubus so that you can be together."
"You, what are you talking about!" Griffith was stunned by the appalling plan, "Is there anyone in this world who falls in love like this?"
"I'm just providing an idea. And it's not mine, it's Knight Roland's."
"Why is it him?"
"This idea comes from a different world fantasy book he wrote, which is divided into upper and lower volumes, namely "I am a Death Knight" and "I am a Great Lord"."
"How could Knight Roland write such a thing!?"
"You have to ask him. It is said that he was mentally stimulated after breaking up with the legendary Miss Ranger. He hid in some countryside and created some weird things, which were quite popular." Elodie paused for a while, her big eyes rolled.
After two laps, it seemed like he was trying to get some tricks up his sleeve.
There was silence at the dinner table for a while.
"Griffith, I have decided that I will go to Homemonworth and confirm it with my own eyes!"
"real?"
"Hehe, of course, I'm very talented!" Elodie slapped the table, "My dad can get me a letter of recommendation, my grades are also very good, and my mental strength is better than those who can barely become Sequence 9 by relying on potions.
I don’t know how tall a stupid kid from a ‘reader’ family of businessmen and engineers is!”
"Well, Dr. Zion has a good legacy." Griffith became happy, "But you generally have to be 16 years old to enroll."
"I will be 14 soon. Wait another year. 16 is not a mandatory requirement. You will only be in the third grade at that time. Look forward to it! I will help you find out what Elf Sister is saying!"
It's really good. Griffith rested his chin on his hand and fantasized in anticipation.
"So, so, you have to buy something with me later," Elodie looked at him with an expression that said the plan was going well, "As a future 'reader', I need to buy some books to enhance my knowledge and expand my knowledge!
