Glorious Ideal Hometown Nine

Nix Afternoon Tea

loyd accompanied the visiting guests to enjoy afternoon tea in the garden to relax their bodies, but because of his unusual attitude towards Lyon's affairs - even he himself could not explain why there was such uneasiness - everyone was still inexplicably worried.

Xilu, who changed into a purple dress, and Shirley, who was wearing a maid's uniform, served refreshments for everyone while apologizing:

"I'm really sorry. After all, it's just a poor place, so all I can handle is black tea and small cakes, which is really not like afternoon tea."

"It doesn't matter. It's very satisfying to drink the black tea made by two people and eat the desserts sent by them. And we didn't come in the dress we should wear, so please don't be so solemn. Anyway, please sit down and enjoy it together.

After thanking Gerrard, he couldn't wait to take up the plate with the small cake, took a bite at the dessert, and then sincerely praised:

"It's really not an ordinary dessert! It's so delicious! Did you make it yourself, Xilu?"

"Sorry, my craftsmanship is still a little worse. It was made by Shirley."

"Oh!"

Gerald shouted with emotion and swallowed the dessert in the plate:

"Please...please have another one!"

"No problem, I can bring it to you at any time, but please take care of everyone, because the number of desserts is limited."

Shirley sent him another dessert. Gerald smelled the fragrance of the dessert intoxicatedly and suddenly stretched out his hand to grab Shirley's wrist:

"Please be sure to marry me!"

"...Huh?"

The impactful confession made Shirley unable to react for a moment and couldn't help but be stunned. Gerard opened his eyes wide and repeated again:

"Please look at my eyes! Absolutely no hypocritical! So Miss Shirley, please accept my heart and marry me... Wow!"

Kick rushed out from behind and grabbed him back:

"Don't think about those stupid things that are fruitless! My sister belongs to loyd! If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will beat you into meat sauce!"

"It's too much! Doesn't loyd already have Xilu? Plus what's wrong with Miss Shirley!"

Gerard protested loudly and cast a dissatisfied look at loyd, which made the other party shake his head helplessly. Although Shirley, who woke up, blushed, still saluted Gerard with a smiling face:

"It's a great honor to receive Mr. Gerrard's praise and... your wrong love, but I do belong to it, so... I'm really sorry."

"Oh..."

Gerard lamented and collapsed on the chair, then grabbed the cake from the plate and put it into his mouth, and then stretched out his hand to grab the desserts of his companions. Ferdinand was annoyed and wanted to stop it, but was blocked by Kick:

"Don't pay attention to him. He has always looked like this in the college. Look, and then he will complain about why no girl likes him..."

Sure enough, Gerard then began to repeat the lines that had been nagging him countless times, that is, what Kik said, "Why does no girl like me, why are these guys like loyd so lucky" and so on, which made everyone frown for a while. Laugh. It seems that it was also his blessing that the originally dull air was slightly reconciled, which made loyd gently relieved:

"In a word, please sit down and taste tea. The cake is Shirley's masterpiece. Black tea is Xilu's painstaking efforts. Everyone must taste it carefully. To be honest, I was deeply moved when I drank it for the first time."

"Real? Then just sit down and taste it..."

"Big stupid bear!' What does it mean for the time being? I will pour black tea directly on your head!"

Sulu raised the teapot, and Kik smiled and picked up the teacup and took a big sip:

"Then I reluctantly... Hmm! This taste...! Is this really what you did, little girl?

"What to say! I also have a real biography of my sister, Big Stupid Bear! And don't call me little girl! Call me Miss Xilu!"

"I understand, little girl! Although I don't want to say that... It's really good! No wonder the partner is moved to tears!"

"I didn't say I was moved to tears..."

"That's it! When loyd drank my tea for the first time, tears kept flowing! While saying the touching lines 'It's so happy to drink Xilu's tea', although that's also a little embarrassing... But my black tea has this power!"

Ignoring loyd's defense, Xilu said boundless nonsense, which made everyone involuntarily appear the look of "believe in what you say to have ghosts". However, since even Kik praised it, this black tea must indeed have a unique charm. Everyone picked up the teacup and took a sip together, and then all kinds of praise came out. Xilu's expression became even more proud:

"So that's what I said! You all put on that inexplicable face just now! If you can drink Miss Xilu's black tea today, you must remember it in your heart for a lifetime!"

"It's just a cup of your black tea... Do you need such an exaggerated reaction? Anyway, we don't remember that there is nothing wrong with you, right? Is it enough as long as your partner can remember you?"

"Loed! Even if you don't drink my black tea, you will remember me for the rest of your life! Because I'm his master!"

"Is it still just a partner between the master and the knight?"

"Hmm?"

"In fact, we have been discussing the relationship between you two along the way. Is it a fait accompli? There should be many opportunities in such a spacious lord's mansion, right? We are looking forward to it..."

With a "bang", a lightning-like light fell straight down from Kick's head. Kick hurriedly dodged aside, and Xilu's sword cut down a corner of the stone table without mercy. The fierceness of the sword made everyone present stunned. Kick couldn't help wiping his cold sweat:

"Are you going to kill me, little girl?"

"I just want to tell you that some jokes can't be said casually, Mr. Kik... Do you remember my advice?"

"Yes...Yes..."

Originally, I wanted to make two more jokes, but the seemingly murderous expression on Xilu's face blocked those inappropriate sentences, so no one dared to make such jokes casually... Lulu, who had been sitting aside silently, suddenly clapped her hands:

"Don't mess up the atmosphere of afternoon tea, Miss Xilu, we don't sit here to quarrel or test swordsmanship. Miss Lena, it seems that the inspection work will be handed over to you. If anyone else does such a thing or says such a thing and destroys the atmosphere of afternoon tea, you will rudely cut down your sword!"

"Understand!"

Lina stood beside Lulu with vitality and glanced at the people present with a happy look. She was as eager to cut the sword on someone's head, which made everyone feel a little ashamed. Of course... What made them most uneasy was Lulu's attitude, the water demon. It's not that everyone has never learned about a woman's temper. Once she gets angry, maybe the whole garden will turn into a lake in an instant...

However... why does Lulu appear here? And it is said that he also became loyd's housekeeper? Speaking of which, as long as loyd is away, Lulu can't be seen...

Is it possible that the two of them are also...?

This uneasy shadow has passed through everyone's hearts, but no one dares to ask it bluntly, so as not to accidentally anger the moody witch... After all, Lulu's courage is enough to make the unspokenick have to keep silent. However, it seems that this silence makes Lulu a little unhappy:

"Why don't you talk? Mr. Kik, at least please sit back in your seat... I said, isn't this atmosphere a little uncomfortable? Do you want me to pour a cup of black tea for everyone to be active?

The students quickly picked up the teacup and the plate with desserts... If it hadn't been for the deliciousness of black tea and cakes, their smiles would have been completely stiffened at this moment. Seeing that the atmosphere was lively, Lulu nodded with satisfaction, and then... she got up without hesitation and sat down on loyd's Around:

"What a pleasant afternoon, isn't it, loyd?"

At this moment, it seemed that a shining light hit my heart, and everyone immediately confirmed the suspicion just now:

Lulu really fell in love with loyd!

Compared with Shirley's previous reaction, Lulu's behavior shocked them more.

This arrogant water witch would fall in love with loyd!

You are a teacher, Mr. Lulu!

You are ten years older than loyd, Miss Lulu!

You have fallen in love with a person who has confirmed the marriage contract, Lord Lulu!

In a word... your behavior is simply a crime! It is a crime that will be sentenced to death!

Of course, everyone will not feel gritting their teeth just because they like Lulu - after all, from all aspects, they will not and dare not dare to pursue Lulu, so it is absolutely nonsense to say that they are jealous. What really annoys them is Loide's luck...

is really hateful luck! It seems that he can possess all the women close to him!

In one breath, Xilu, Shirley and Lulu were closely attracted to themselves... Are you still a man?

No! You are not only a man's shame... It's simply a human shame! The shame is so enviable... No! It makes us angry!

Everyone scolded loyd in their hearts and cast an angry look at him... At this moment, loyd was overwhelmed by the siege of three women. This situation finally made people almost nervous. Gerard, who was originally dejected, stood up again regardless of the consequences:

"loyd! What the hell is wrong with your behavior! Obviously, there is Miss Xilu, but both Miss Shirley and Miss Lulu..."

With a "bang", Lena's dagger suddenly passed in front of him and almost cut off his nose. Gerald sat back on the chair with a pale face. Lena withdrew her dagger and winked at him playfully:

"Please don't forget what Miss Lulu said just now, otherwise Lena won't show mercy every time! Also, if you dare to disrespect Mr. Loed, Lena will be rude!"

"Don't be disrespectful to loyd or something... Do you also have a crush on him?"

"That's right! When Lena first saw Mr. loyd, her mind was 'banged', as if she had been attacked by lightning... This is the so-called love at first sight! Ouch! Lena finally said these words in front of everyone! It's so embarrassing..."

"The first time we met..."

"Yes, yes! The first meeting with Mr. loyd was in front of the pub! Oh... It's really sad to say. Although I tried to do this and that, and I have always been confident in my charm, Mr. Loed didn't pay attention to me at all... At that time, I... Wow!"

Xilu punched Lena on her head without opening her mouth:

"Listen to your nonsense here! Can you say such a shameless thing casually? Loyd is mine! None of you can take it away! Do your job well!"

"It's really too much... Miss Xilu, who is going to be captured by the monster..."

"What a non-nutritious joke! I was born to be this kind of arbitrary person! I don't know how many times I have been arrested! It's you, what's the use of saying these things to these unrelated people! Don't you know how to restrain and reflect?"

"Lina won't reflect on what she will lose to her subordinates! How many times have we competed? If I remember correctly, your record is five defeats, right? It's really funny to say that you are the first genius in the college..."

As soon as she mentioned her achievements, Lena raised her head proudly, and Xilu "hummed" heavily across her face:

"I have always been able to distinguish the winner with my opponent. Of course, I can't deal with the indewd tricks like you for the time being! Ah! There's nothing I can do about it. I often play with such people, and it seems that I have become obsmot..."

Two "bangs", I don't know when Lulu, who appeared behind the two, used her usual must-kill skills and hit the two people's heads heavily:

"You two are really easy to get into the play. Have you forgotten that there are still guests here? Are you going to make a fool of yourself in front of everyone with loyd?

Lawed back from the tit-for-tat fantasy, both of them couldn't help turning around with a red face. Kitk, who sat while watching the play, couldn't help laughing:

"I don't know why, every time I see such a scene, I feel that 'Sure enough, the partner and the little girl are still the comrades-in-arms who stay with us'. Of course, the hatred for the partner is a little deeper, because he is so popular with girls! However, if this is not the case, you will feel that something is missing. When everyone gathers to train in the college, they will suddenly feel that 'it seems to be inexplicably weak today', because they are not with us! You are really an indispensable part of the swordsman group... However, after the partner becomes the lord, it has become a futile luxury to want to return to the scene like the past..."

"What nonsense are you talking about, big stupid bear? No matter what identity we become, we have always been friends like in the past, right, loyd?"

"That's right, I don't think our friendship will be so fragile. After all, we have fought side by side in the monastery, whether it's a lord or anything else. Just as you have never despised me as a noble, I will not use this as a reason to distance myself from you."

"Satisfied! With you like this!"

Kick slapped his hands hard and then raised the cup:

"A toast to your speech! Well... Shirley, could you please pour black tea for me?"

"Black tea is not red wine. You can't drink it like you, big stupid bear brother! Please be a little restrained!"

"What does it matter! When you are happy, even black tea will smell like red wine!"

Shirley complained and filled him with a cup, and Kik stood up casually:

"Everyone! Let's drink for this guy loyd to become the lord!"

"Wo-Wo-"

"We also have a toast to this guy loyd!"

"Oh, oh--"

"Let's drink again for this guy loyd!"

"Oh-oh-oh-"

Although Xilu protested that "what does it mean to suffer from a woman", she was suppressed by everyone's fanatical roar. Her father's distressed eyes turned to loyd, who also seemed to stand up foolishly and raised his cup:

"In order to drink a toast to the eternal glory of our swordsmen!"

"Oh--"

In an unorthodox scream, everyone drank all the black tea in the cup, and then handed the cup to the two women in charge of pouring tea together.

"Really! This bad temper of a man is the most annoying!"

Xilu complained loudly, and Shirley began to fill the cups with tea one by one. Gerald and others took advantage of this gap to surround Loyd:

"By the way, loyd, what have you done in the past two months? What kind of credit did you make to get the queen's reward?

"Speaking of which, I just want to know what everyone has done in the past two months. Why don't we sit down and have a good chat together!"

After a lively old story, everyone lay on the grass and hummed contentedly, and the swordsman group simply fell asleep. Shirley and Lena were busy transporting cups and dishes to the kitchen. Lulu, who lacked enough sleep, went back to her room early to sleep, and the rest of Xilu squatted down at Loide incredibly:

"Can even drink some black tea make you drunk? It's really annoying to have a group of big men lying like this! Don't you know how to check it?"

"What does it matter, Xilu? It's not often possible to get together and hold an afternoon tea happily like today, and then lie on the grass so freely... In the shadow of war, we may lose our lives at any time, so don't do things like today. What's to blame?"

"Yes...that's what I said..."

The sudden sadness made Xilu speechless. She sat down beside loyd and stroked his hair warmly:

"To be honest... I'm really afraid to hear you say this. I have also experienced witnessing the death of my companions, just like the sisters of the magic guard killed by Ferwin in the monastery... It was only for a moment, but they will never come back... But the murderer Ferin has now become our companion, which is really a path of ironic fate... loyd, you say I'm naive or unreasonable... Even if it's in the shadow of war, please don't die easily, and don't leave me easily for any reason, because... I've already..."

"Sixilu is still Xilu... hasn't changed at all."

Louid seemed to want to make a joke, but it aroused Xilu's anger:

"What! I'm talking to you very seriously! It doesn't matter if you don't take it seriously... How dare you laugh at your master!"

In anger, the stroke turned into a pull. loyd only felt that his scalp was about to separate from his head with his hair, and quickly apologized repeatedly:

"I'm just kidding, that's all! Please let go! It's not good for you to be bald..."

"I just said it! Some things are fools who can't joke casually!"

"I see! Please let go!"

"Do you really understand? Or do you want to simply perfunctory me?"

"I really understand! So just now I really saw that you were a little depressed and wanted to make a joke... Let go!"

"If there is another time, it will really be pulled out! Anyway, I don't care if you are a bald..."

"But if the lord is bald, it will cause uneasiness and resistance among the people, right?"

Silo then showed a happy smile. In order to show that she was not smiling, she held loyd's hand tightly in her hand:

"But you'd better explain what the sentence 'Xilu is really Xilu' means?"

"Because you are a person who always likes to live with fate. You know that we are all weak in front of fate, but you always have to make strange demands. However, this kind of Xilu is the person I know most. If you say to me with tears, 'Please don't leave me', I will definitely think, 'This is probably some doll pretending to be Xilu'!"

"Real... So... So you really want me to do that?"

"What...what do you mean?"

The shadow of uneasiness suddenly hit his heart. He tried to pull his hand out of the other party's hand, but found that the other party's hand was biting tightly like iron tongs...

"Of course... you've been imagining this all the time, right? Xilu will be like a stray puppy, crying and begging you to do this and that... like that!"

A sharp pain came from his wrist, and loyd's head was full of cold sweat. Xilu's hands seemed to have really turned into iron pliers, trying to break his wrists completely like walnuts:

"I'm really sorry... Xilu doesn't know how to learn from such a puppy!"

"I didn't say I wanted you to learn any puppies... Oh!"

"I won't pretend to be a good child and cry and beg you!"

"I didn't mean that either... Wow!"

"I'm sorry... I can only do such boring stupid things!"

"Hand...the wrist is going to break!"

Loed struggled hard and couldn't break free, but pulled Xilu over because of too much force. At the moment of feeling the other party's soft skin, the pain in the wrist also disappeared.

"What a hopeless fool... He also said that I like to force others, but in fact, I'm not the same... I always let me do such a bad thing..."

"So you misunderstood! I'm just careless..."

"If you do it on purpose... I may be happier, right? Although I think this idea is very ridiculous... but maybe that's what I really think?"

Xilu sat up and stared into Loyde's eyes. Her eyes projected sincerity from her heart, which moved loyd's heart:

"What did you just say?"

"You like to pretend to be crazy, don't you? Or do you suddenly really don't understand me?"

"I'm really sorry... If I say so, even if I push you down... you won't be angry?"

"Do you think that's possible?"

"That's what I said..."

"But I don't hate your frankness. It should be said that from the beginning, I feel at ease about your frankness, because you don't deceive me like some people, but always be honest with your sincerity in front of me. Although it's a very stupid act... it suits my heart."

"It's a great honor to receive such praise..."

"I don't like to hear you say such lines commonly used by servants! But occasionally saying this won't embarrass me... In a word, remember what I just said and do it well... That's my most trustworthy knight!"

Silo kissed loyd on the face, and then stood up to wake up the students of the swordsmen who pretended to be sleeping one by one:

"Don't think you can hide it from me by lying here and closing your eyes! If you don't get up, I will kick you all into fat pigs!"

"Sure enough... Xilu or Xilu, no matter how you do it, you can make people feel at ease."
