holy flame

Julian didn't know that Allen had a beautiful dream last night, so Julian was extremely disgusted that the prince turned his mind to women's sex as soon as he woke up.

Therefore, the nobles are indeed hypocritical idiots, and the revenge he shouted was just a show.

With a sneer in his heart, Julian looked humble and kind on the surface: "So you still don't know the identity of Lord Samuel?"

"You call him Sir?" Allen was stunned for a moment. Honorary titles such as Sir, Your Excellency, and Your Highness are not used whenever you want.Even if he is a giant merchant of a big chamber of commerce, if he does not have the status of a nobleman, he cannot be called an "adult". Otherwise, he will just wait for the angry nobles to come to his door.

"Yes, Lord Samuel was born in the Holy Court Nursery Hall, and he doesn't have any brothers and sisters. And the Lord is also the youngest apprentice Paladin so far, and we are all his followers."

"Him? Apprentice paladin?" So appearance is deceiving, or people are judged by their appearance. Even though Alan has suffered personally, but thinking about Samuel's "weak and delicate" appearance, Alan really can't help it. Associating him with knights in heavy armor fighting in blood and mud.

Samuel's identity surprised Alan, but Samuel's background made Alan sad.But soon Allen cheered up—it was just a dream after all, so what if Samuel had sisters?Maybe that woman is very similar to him, but how can she take care of him when he is sick?After all, it was just a beautiful fantasy in his dream...

"What's the matter, Your Highness Allen?" Julian asked with concern.

"No, don't call me Your Highness. Samuel and Frank are right, Alan Chris is dead long ago, and the one here is just an ordinary adventurer. Moreover, he is still a bad adventurer. "

"Don't be so low." Julian patted Allen on the shoulder, "The first king of Teronio was just a blacksmith, and the general of Kabul's God of War was just a farmer. Those bards like to sing the most. It is the success stories of those adventurers. Although more than half of them are fictional, the remaining heroic deeds that actually happened, aren’t they worth your effort?”

Indeed, without his blood and family background, does he really have nothing?Julian's words aroused Allen's fighting spirit. He didn't think he was an incompetent person, and evaluated his ability. One day, he would be able to regain everything he should have!

"Thank you, Julian."

"You're welcome, I just don't want to see a capable young man just be silent." Julian patted Allen's shoulder with a smile, and continued to maintain his weapon. At the same time, what he was thinking in his heart was: Poor little guy, if you're honest, maybe Samuel will let you go.Continue to maintain this momentum, and you will be greeted with a "beautiful" future.

After Allen woke up, even if he was taking care of the sick, Samuel originally only wanted to stay in the hot spring area for another day.But that night, the blizzard came again, and it continued for several days at once.Faced with this almost terrifying power of nature, several human beings can only live in caves.It was not until seven days later that the wind and snow stopped and they were able to start their journey again.

"I hope to catch up with the Rewarding God Festival and the New Year's sacrifice." While packing his luggage, Frank muttered while looking at the snow scene outside the cave.

On the last day of each year, people in this world, no matter what their status is, wear the best clothes, bring the best homemade meals, go to the local church, and celebrate in the square in front of the church.Even thieves and robbers have a holiday on this day. Even if the two countries are at war, the war must be ceased on this day. Everyone laughs and revels heartily. This day is the Rewarding God Festival.

On the second day of the New Year, people can sleep until noon, but at two o'clock in the afternoon, it is the beginning of the New Year's sacrifice.Farmers and hunters for harvest, craftsmen and merchants for customers, nobles and knights for merit, monarchs for territory... In the new year, if you want to realize your wishes, you must participate in sacrifices and offer prayers .If you don't, you will surely offend the Holy Spirit, and you will have a year of bad luck.But if you do this, it may not be able to realize your wish. After all, even if it is a divine favor, the price is high. There are many people who have the same wish. Is my sacrifice the most abundant in the world, and my prayer the most sincere?

Therefore, the New Year's sacrifice is nothing more than seeking peace of mind.

"It doesn't matter. According to the sacred scriptures, I am also qualified to preside over the sacrifice. If there is no time, it is not impossible for us to perform New Year sacrifices here." As long as you are a priest with a certain status, you can hold sacrifices. After all, with the ability of the priests , there are many places where they cannot appear.

Frank nodded, but he sighed inwardly.In fact, the situation has been calm for so long, most of the nobles and kings no longer care about the war of light and darkness, death, but are more and more focused on the struggle of their own people.If the upper-level rulers of the mainland are becoming weaker and weaker in their devotion to the Holy Spirit, let alone Frank's identity...

Therefore, he mentioned the festival only because he wanted Samuel, who had been living in the holy court, to feel the joy of the people.But Samuel was an apprentice paladin after all, so he could only bury these words in his heart, but he couldn't say them clearly.

On the afternoon before the Rewarding God Festival, they finally returned to Chris City, and this time, the flags flying on the city walls were no longer black and white. The flag is even flying in the wind-eight out of ten countries near the Red Dragon Mountains have the red dragon as their emblem.This means that Grand Duke Claudy's depraved younger brother has been successfully killed, although Allen is still alive and well.

The three entourages and Allen returned to the house that Samuel had rented before, while Samuel and Frank went to the castle. After all, superficial work still needs to be done.

Allen, who wrapped his face tightly when he entered the city, couldn't help but look in the direction of the castle after entering the small courtyard.It used to be his favorite home, but now it is the residence of his most hated enemy...

Although several people were very tired, after putting down their luggage, Julian immediately ran to the local church with Samuel's ID card. Of course, the sooner their things were brought back, the better.Barn and Eric also set off to the market. Some wild animal furs they had hunted in the mountains needed to be sold, and some salt and dry food were also bought.

In the end, Alan was left alone at home, but he also had a task-clean the room, at least make the bed, otherwise he couldn't go back to the city and sleep on animal skins, right?

Poor Prince His Royal Highness, although he was not so extravagant enough to have his clothes buttoned up in the past, but he was still a male ruling class, how could he know how to tidy up the room?So I could only sweep here and there with a feather duster until Samuel came back.

When Samuel saw the rooms that were cleaned or not cleaned, he picked up the broom without saying a word, and first swept the feather duster prince into the living room on the first floor...

Looking at Samuel who was busy coming in and out, Alan's face was so hot that he could almost boil an egg.

"Ahem, Samuel, why didn't Frank come back?" Allen struggled all day but the room became more and more chaotic. Samuel only spent half an hour. The room couldn't be said to have changed a lot, but at least he could sleep.When Samuel went to the kitchen to drink water and rest, the embarrassed Allen felt that he should say something to ease the atmosphere. After all, Allen could be regarded as his future superior.

"The Grand Duke has left him to spend the night in the castle."

"..." After 5 minutes of silence, only the sound of Samuel drinking water was heard in the kitchen.

"Samuel."

"Ok?"

"Thank you for helping me and not letting me die in such a horrible way." Allen once thought he was very mature and calm, but after so many things, he realized that the past self was just living under the care of his parents. In the beautiful grandiosity he constructed.

It's just a big fool who doesn't know anything, and is so self-righteous that he thinks that except for the Holy Spirit and the Great Saint, everyone else in this world should serve him.

The cruel reality taught him a bloody lesson.

When he originally thanked Samuel, Allen had a calm face, but after thanking him, tears flowed out without warning.

"Sorry." Allen wiped away his tears in embarrassment, but the tears couldn't stop. He didn't want people to see his cowardly appearance, and wanted to leave, but because he was too hasty, his legs tripped on the chair, He fell face down on the ground, making himself even more embarrassed.

"I'm really useless, am I?" It can be said that now is the most vulnerable time for Allen, he can't even get up from the ground anymore, squatting on the ground and saying pitifully.

Samuel took a sip of water and nodded without hesitation: "Yes."

"..." Samuel's answer made Allen extremely contradictory. He wanted to find a place to cry bitterly, but also wanted to pounce on someone, although he asked this question himself...

"Get up, and help me if you don't think it's useless." Feeling that he had almost rested, Samuel squinted at Alan who was still squatting on the ground conflictingly.

"Okay." Allen hesitated for a moment, and finally stood up from the ground.

However, Allen soon regretted his hesitation-he should have refused directly.Because Samuel let him do the laundry!Even if Allen somewhat understood his identity, knowing that he was no longer a prince, but an adventurer.but……

"Who ever heard of an adventurer who can wash clothes?!" Allen, who was ordered to fetch water from the well, resisted dying with two buckets.

"Then what do you think adventurers should do?"

"Of course, wearing armor, holding a weapon, rushing into the jungle densely covered with monsters, entering the ancient mysterious ruins, killing monsters to find treasure!"

"Have you listened to bards singing too much? Or have you read too many novels?"

"What do you mean?"

"Listen, there are four things that adventurers in this world do the most: eating, sleeping, dressing, and undressing, and other things they do are also around these things. And obviously, things related to clothes are in the Two of these four things are taken up, so do you think washing clothes is still something that adventurers should not do?"

"You are sophistry!" Allen protested.

"Listen, you don't have to help (Alan immediately put down the barrel), but then you'll be wearing those dirty clothes forever."

"Uh..." Allen looked at his clothes. He was about the same size as Eric, so he borrowed all the clothes from Eric, but Eric didn't have many clothes. He bought two sets of clothes for him. When he was in the dense forest, he wore the two sets of clothes alternately. Thinking of this, Allen was puzzled, "By the way, who washed the clothes when we were in the dense forest?"

"Who do you think? A kind, beautiful and helpful little elf? Of course, everyone including Frank takes turns, but because you are a patient, you are given special treatment and you are not allowed to take part in the shift."

Allen blushed. After all, he was a prince. Although it is not impossible to know that bread is made of flour, and flour is ground from wheat, he does lack a lot of common sense.

"Why don't you hire a maid?" Allen muttered in a low voice, but Samuel's cold eyes made him swallow the last complaint immediately, and honestly carried the bucket to fetch water.

The entourage who went to resupply and retrieved the equipment came back one after another. Allen, who was very embarrassingly wrapped in an apron and drying clothes in the yard, was evasive at first, but he soon found that no one of his future companions noticed him.In fact, after placing the items they brought back, the big man immediately carried an ax to chop wood, and then went to boil bath water for everyone. Eric and Julian also put on aprons, but they went to knead the dough Prepared to bake bread, and one picked up the duck and beef that had just been bought.

"Don't take the legends seriously, what we should do is live." Samuel, who came with a basket of clothes, put the basket at Allen's feet.

The next day, the Remuneration Festival.

Except for Alan who was forced to get up from the bed by others, everyone else got up early and started preparing. Although none of them had a family, on the Remuneration Festival, even beggars had to take out food, not to mention are single them.Eric had bought a live pig the day before, and the first thing he and Julian did when they got up was to tie the pig's hooves tightly.The person who performed the operation was Alan who was late.

Holding a sharp knife, Allen hesitantly walked towards the fat pig who was tied up on the long board, as if he had realized his future destiny and screamed miserably.

"Poor pig." Julian shook his head. He clearly saw Alan's hand holding the knife trembling. It was probably impossible for that pig to enter heaven neatly.

"Poor man." Samuel, who was standing next to Julian, raised one eyebrow. How could he not see that although Julian said it was to make Allen better integrate into the group, it was actually "Molesting" the poor guy?

A scream sounded like a slaughtered pig, but it was not the slaughtered pig, but His Royal Highness.His knife didn't penetrate the pig's heart, nor cut the pig's throat, but just cut the pig's neck and broke the rope by the way.The adult boar immediately broke free from the long board at a speed that was completely disproportionate to its figure, and slammed into Alan's stomach in a daze, and after Alan fell to the ground, he stepped on it with one hoof. It's... in that position.

The honest man Bahn and the pure boy Eric covered their faces in horror at the same time, and Julian shrugged towards Samuel, saying that he never expected this to happen~
