Dawn of the Grey Tower
Chapter 147
The next morning cheese went back to Roland''s hotel. Roland, who was sorting out the props in the carriage, saw cheese coming back from the street and klandi following him. The mage is still wearing the clothes he left yesterday, but from his expression, cheese is not very happy now. In contrast, it was the expression on her face. Although still grieving for the death of her grandmother, the death of the old bird guarding the nest means that the chicks can finally leave the nest that binds them. Although she grew up in Wangdu, her life was basically taught by her grandmother and her mother. Young witches were not familiar with the city and its residents.
"Why, you brought back such a beautiful lady without seeing you for a day? You boy, this is much better than your teacher Roland glanced up and down at clandy. He didn''t notice that the girl was not human. What he saw in the old man''s eyes was a young woman with golden hair.
"This is Mr. Roland, who saved me outside the city. He is also a friend of my teacher Cheese, though reluctant, took her to Roland''s carriage, and the mage introduced the old man whose beard was too long to see. As for the cheese teacher, klandi had heard from her grandmother and her mother more than once. Although many descriptions about the man were obscure, just as cheese thought, Roland, as an existing friend, thought to be a very extraordinary existence.
"Hello, Mr. Roland. My name is Corinthian With her hands crossed between her abdomen, she made a slight bow to the old man, which was a very solemn salute. Roland was still wondering why cheese would mention his teacher to the girl, but the next word from klandi shocked the old man. "I''m Mr. cheese''s fiancee now."
"It turns out that cheese is unmarried What!? What do you say Roland was originally standing in the shed talking to the two people, this startled the old man almost fell out of the carriage. The gods, he never heard cheese say that he had such a fiancee.
"Is that true?" The old man''s beard trembled and asked the mage.
But in the face of Roland''s problem, although the expression on cheese''s face was very wonderful, he finally nodded heavily, "I''m afraid so."
"Yes," the old man asked, turning his face again to Corinthian.
"Miss clandy, may I venture to ask, when did you know cheese?"
"Last night, sir." ''replied Corinthian earnestly, with a very serious expression on her face, as if there was nothing wrong with it.
"Well, I beg your pardon, miss clandy; I am afraid I will have to borrow your fiance for the time being." Roland''s eyes twitch. At the same time, the old man pulled cheese into the shed of the carriage with a powerful force that was not in line with his own shape, and put down the curtain of the shed.
"You can! Doesn''t it mean you guys are all focused on exploring mysteries? How come you cheated a girl back in one night! This is the capital of a country at any rate. You will be beheaded if you abduct nobles! " Roland yelled to cheese in the shed. It''s not surprising that the old man would misunderstand that the clothes corandi wore were expensive at first sight. However, judging from the innocence of her face that was not in line with her age, the scene looked like a trick in which an evil mage colluded with an ignorant girl in a noble family and then eloped with others.
"It''s not what you think it is." Cheese''s eyes are indifferent to reply, his heart is also very broken now, "I and she really is not what you think."
"You know what I think! So, what are you talking about? Didn''t you come to Wangdu to investigate? How can one more fiancee come out in one night Roland asked, the old man''s voice was very strong, but considering that corantine was outside the carriage and the curtain was not very sound insulation, he deliberately lowered the volume.
"Well I don''t want to be like this. Things have changed beyond my imagination. But as for the noble girl you mentioned, I can only say that her surname is black pearl. If someone can abduct her, I''m afraid I''ll only have the most senior devil in the abyss. " Said cheese. He did get the information he wanted through the contract, and even the witch knew more about the plague than the mage had expected. But the deal with the witch also brought him some unexpected troubles.
"Black pearl Do you think I am standing outside the carriage a lady loved by the black cat The surname "Black Pearl" is an obscure term for witches. It comes from the beautiful appearance of witches used to confuse the world and the popularity of ravens and black cats. Roland, as a well-informed person who has traveled from place to place without knowing how many years, is not unfamiliar with this view. For most people, most of them even include the vast majority of casters. It''s not a good thing to have an intersection with a woman with the surname of black pearl.
"Yes, I am quite sure. I went through something yesterday, and the result is that I have this relationship with her now Said cheese.
"The fly wings of the tortoise! Do you know what it means to marry a witch? " Yelled at the cheese with a dirty word of unknown meaning."Of course I know. And don''t be so excited. This engagement is only temporary. As long as I can solve the plague of Cang lion, then the engagement will be void. " Said the mage.
"Damn it! You and your teacher are really the same. You don''t care about your life. Show me your hands Roland said, pointing to the cheese''s left hand.
"We haven''t had a ceremony yet. I don''t have a ring on my hand. And I''m coming back to you today, hoping that you can preside over our engagement ceremony. " The mage showed Roland his left hand. He doesn''t really have any rings or videos on his hands, but if you look closely, you''ll find a small black thread around the ring finger of cheese''s left hand.
"And the engagement ceremony! Listen to me, boy, if you want to live, cut this finger now. I''ll go out and swindle that witch away, and we''ll leave the country now Said the old man.
"It''s no use. I''ve already signed the contract. If you want to break the engagement, you have to get rid of the plague in this country. " Said cheese with a wry smile. Of course, he also wanted to break the contract, but now I think that the reason why Gelin prepared such a serious contract was to prevent the mage from reneging.
“…… Alas, sometimes I really don''t understand you so-called omniscients. You can take your life and soul as weights on the scale for such a few dispensable information Or the lightest one! " Roland knew that since cheese said he had signed the contract, it meant that there was no way to break the contract with the master''s ability. Although the old man did not know cheese for a few days, he still liked the young man very much. Cheese is still a bit gloomy, but he is not as indifferent to the outside world as other casters do. This makes Roland can''t help but see the shadow of his former friends in the mage''s body.
"So would you like to preside over our engagement?" Asked the cheese.
"Host, why not? I once presided over the king''s wedding ceremony, and once offered my blessing to the dragon. But a engagement ceremony between a grey robe and a witch, ha ha, this is definitely another thing that makes me glad that I have lived so long. " Roland opened the curtain of the carriage. And although the two did not say for long, the good face of Claudius had attracted many passers-by.
