Lord of the Continent [Western Fantasy]

She said that you can just take one...Xi Xiumi thought to herself, then let me choose for her myself.

After all, he is still not familiar with the angel steward. Although this guy claims to be his steward, Xi Xiumi still can't get used to instructing Hersius to do things. He always feels that he is a bit lazy and impolite.

"Well, please wait a moment." Xixiu Mi said, "Let me go and see what is suitable for you here." Then he turned and went back.

Hercules watched the black-haired boy who looked like a succubus leave, followed by his butler immediately, and then, a gray mist suddenly appeared, and there seemed to be some kind of huge object swimming in the fog, and the boy and the butler Then disappeared in the mist in an instant, without a trace.

In an instant, she felt a certain kind of gaze staring at her. The gaze seemed to come from the void, full of malice, and a strong sense of oppression hit her heart. She didn't even dare to glance at her eyes. The whole person was like petrified, nailed In the same place, just waiting for the boy to come back with something.

I hope, they can treat her better, and don't take out priceless treasures... Herax's mood was ups and downs when she thought of the only five gold coins left in her pocket.

Xi Xiumi walked back to the lobby on the first floor. All the precious props and treasures were neatly stacked on the ground, countless. He glanced over and quickly picked out a pack of sachets from a row of spices.

Ye Lai Xiangyu - the unique calming sachet of the Itenetic Kingdom, made of many expensive herbs, the most important point, it also contains special magic powder needed by alchemists, very popular among the Church of Light, knights, A favorite of wizards.

When he dressed as the little earl in the manor, he learned from the memory of his original body that the shop under his name specialized in high-end sachets, magic props, and rare and exotic items, and the parents of the little earl were exactly this Ye Lai. The founder of Xiangyu Sachet.

His family was originally a mediocre baron who made spices from scratch. After years of hard work, the products they launched were loved and respected by the nobles, and even appreciated by the king of Itenity, so he was named a hereditary earl.

It is strange to say that the memory of the original body is not complete and clear. For example, the memory of the little count, his parents, is very vague in Xixiumi's memory, and there is even no impression, but this is not important to him, so it is also I don't care too much.

Xixiumi walked up to the priestess of the light again, handed her the sachet, and said, "Do you like sachets? Ye Lai Xiangyu should be very suitable for you. It can make you fall asleep quickly and have a good night's sleep. It also removes the foul smell from the body.”

Sachet?Hercules looked down and saw the small bag made of blue cloth in his hand.

She has never seen this thing, nor has she heard of it. The barren and backward City of Sighs does not have such a rare thing.

Spices wrapped in this delicate little bag?Ye Lai Xiangyu...a nice name.

The witcher lady took the blue sachet, and a strong fragrance wafted into her nose immediately. In an instant, Herax fell in love with this smell, as if this magical sachet could dispel the bloody smell on her body. It could even make her forget the sad past on the edge of the City of Sighs. "

At this moment, a trace of the mist that wrapped Xixiumi slowly separated, and then got into the Ye Lai Xiangyu sachet in her hand. The dark blue cloth instantly exuded the color of the starry sky, and there was a faint voice coming from the sachet. The low-pitched chanting of the special piano and the woman seemed to be constantly urging the owner to fall asleep early.

All this was so beautiful, but Herax, a mortal, could neither see nor hear.

"Thank you, I like it very much." Resisting the urge to put Ye Lai Xiangyu under her nose and take a deep breath, she asked in a low voice, "I wonder how much it costs in gold coins?"

Xi Xiumi admired the red-haired lady in front of him very much. Her speech and manners are very cultivated, and she likes Ye Lai Xiangyu so much. If he didn't consider the angel steward beside him, he even thought that he could give it to her for free. Miss.

Just now, Hersius only said that he could choose at will, but he didn't promise that he could go whoring for nothing!

Thinking of this, Xixiumi decided to charge a symbolic fee, as long as he didn't lose money, so he said generously: "The market price of Ye Lai Xiangyu is two gold coins, but because of your predestined relationship with this place, I only charge you You have a gold coin, and you can do whatever you want."

Hercules: "..."

"Hehe, it's really not expensive." The corner of Herax's mouth twitched slightly, and he said against his will: "It turns out that it only costs one gold coin, thank you very much for your generosity!"

When Xixiumi heard this, she immediately showed a gratified smile, but Herax left two lines of lasagna tears in her heart.

A gold coin!

A gold coin can buy many useful wound medicines in the City of Sighs; it can also buy enough supplies to allow her to rest completely for half a month, not to go out to hunt dark creatures; not to mention, her long-awaited Golden Bow|Crossbow can be bought for only eight gold coins.

She has worked so hard to save five, and she is only short of three...

Use a gold coin to buy a sachet... Although this item is very rare, Herax still firmly believes that she is the only one in the City of Sighs who can do such a stupid thing.

After a short hesitation, Herax took out a polished gold coin, handed it to Xixiumi, and asked tentatively, "If there is nothing else, can I go now?"

"Of course you can, but if you want to stay and sit for a while." Xi Xiumi pointed to the long wooden table inside that can accommodate more than a dozen people, and said enthusiastically: "I want to sit down and listen to me. What are the specific uses and ingredients of Laixiangyu?"

"No, no need." Herax shook her head and said cautiously: "I'm sorry for offending you late at night, I will study it slowly when I go back." After finishing speaking, he hurriedly added: "Of course, I didn't want to delve into the fragrance Capsule recipe idea.”

"It's okay, then please go back." Xi Xiumi watched her quickly put away the sachet and bow | crossbow, and said politely: "I hope we can meet again next time."

"Okay, sir." Hercules said softly, "By the way, my name is Hercules. It's an honor to meet you tonight."

For some reason, Hercules believed that this splendid palace, as well as the black-haired boy and his dangerous butler, would definitely come to this barren place again in the future to enjoy the quiet night away from the hustle and bustle.

As for those dangerous dark creatures, they should be like ants, and they can be crushed at once with just a finger. After all, they are not ordinary humans.

"Thank you again!" Herax bowed deeply, then turned around, and quickly left this strange and gorgeous palace, rushing into the gray mist.

Xi Xiumi looked at the back of her leaving in a hurry, feeling pity in her heart: The Church of the God of Light is too oppressive for its employees, and believers are not allowed to rest at night. Look how anxious she is when she leaves!

"Be careful on the road." Xi Xiumi yelled at Herax who had gone away: "My name is Xi Xiumi, see you next time!"

However, he didn't know that when his words passed through the fog and reached Heracles' ears, they had been "intimately" translated into the blessings of the gods: "You will see nothing on the way back, those ignorant and ignorant dark creatures will not attempt to attack you."

Hearing the words "dark creature", the young witch hunter couldn't help but shudder, but instead of stopping, she sped up and ran away.

"You... seem to like her very much." Hersius said sourly with Sishoumi's beautiful face reflected in his eyes.

As the original angel, he couldn't understand why he liked lowly and short-lived creatures like humans, let alone their ugly souls.

Even from the beginning to the present, the inner souls of those outstanding human beings are far less clean and pure than the semi-immortal races in the kingdom of elves.

"Do I like her very much? No." Xi Xiumi shook her head, sighed, and said indifferently: "You didn't tell me how the Dream Palace works, so I finally came to a priest from the Church of the God of Light. Of course you have to greet your guests well.”

Hersius: "..."

Priest of the God of Light?

He was referring to... that humble creature that just left, came from a remote wilderness?

Hersius looked at Xi Xiumu with a puzzled expression, not knowing why he made such a strange judgment, and wanted to explain it to him, but after thinking about it, now his memory has been sealed by himself, and his power is also gone. It basically didn't leak out with age, so it's better not to say it.

However, although this topic cannot be discussed, one's identity still needs to be upright, so Hersius said politely: "Master Xixiumi, please allow me to clarify that I am not an angel under the God of Light."

Hearing this, the expression on Xi Xiumi's face gradually became stiff.

For a long time... This Mr. Angel Butler is not an attendant of the God of Light at all?Thanks to how warmly he entertained the priestess of the God of Light just now, it turned out that his feelings were wasted in vain!

Countless question marks rose from Xixiumi's mind. When he came back to his senses, he immediately planned to ask Hersius what happened to the pair of black and white wings behind him.

Boom-!

The ancient bell suddenly sounded from the ethereal void, and Xixiumi's consciousness instantly sank into the deep sea.

The Dream Palace disappeared...

----------

Its daybreak.

Xi Xiumi walked to the mirror in the bathroom, looked left and right, and carefully examined his face.

His bluish dark circles and pale lips made him look haggard, like a patient just recovering from a serious illness.

"I must have dreamed of something terrible last night..." He said quietly to the mirror.

Xi Xiumi sighed softly, took out expensive tooth powder, brushed his white teeth, and said to himself: "Next time, let the housekeeper and grandpa put a few more Ye Lai Xiang Yu in the room, so as not to sleep like this again gone."

After reaching the Earl position, the aristocratic ladies in the social circle must pay great attention to their appearance, let alone dark circles, just a single acne can make them apply three or four layers of powder on their faces, and then use special equipment to cover it up.

It can be seen that it is not so easy to be an earl, especially the young hereditary earl who inherits the family property of his parents.

——It's even worse!
