"Sylvia —"
"Huh?"
The High Elf Mage looked up in confusion, only to hear Roddy whisper, "There's no time to explain … Try to cooperate with me. There's a show to put on."
She was a little stunned. Just as she was about to ask something, Roddy had already stepped out of the carriage. In the next second, he lost his usual composure and turned around, extending his hand to Sylvia frivolously. "Come, it's time to get off."
Sylvia finally understood what Roddy meant by "show." She knew that she should cooperate with Roddy to get off the carriage, but she didn't dare to touch Roddy's hand no matter what …
Roddy didn't give her time to hesitate. He reached out and grabbed her. Sylvia bit her lip and got off the carriage.
"Erwin! Go, get that butler to prepare some fresh vegetables. I'm sick of their rotten roasted meat. Get him to change it up today! "
The big guy obeyed the order. He didn't care if Roddy was acting or not. He would carry out whatever orders were given. Sylvia, on the other hand, was walking stiffly alongside Roddy. This was because Roddy had casually placed his hand on her waist. If she wasn't an Undead, her face would probably be as red as charcoal by now.
Fortunately, this torture didn't last long. Roddy didn't take many steps before he was attracted by a figure approaching from the side of the hotel. He casually let go of his hand and looked at Doris, who was approaching him. His gaze swept across her curvaceous figure before saying, "Ah, Miss Doris, right? What a coincidence to bump into you again. "
"What a coincidence, Mr. Roddy. I just realized that the hotel where our diplomatic mission is staying is just next to it." Doris still spoke in that sweet and coquettish voice. "It's all thanks to your help in the afternoon, so I would like to invite you for dinner. How about it?"
"Sure! Sure! No problem! "
Roddy agreed without hesitation. He didn't even ask to return to the hotel to change his clothes. He waved his hand at Sylvia. "Go back first! Tell them I'll be back late. "
Sylvia looked at Roddy's lecherous appearance and was still not used to it. She frowned and didn't know how to reply. But in Doris's eyes, this expression naturally became "indignation after falling out of favor". She immediately used the same old trick and bowed deeply in the Tuk tribe's etiquette. "Thank you, Sir Roddy, for coming."
At this moment, she purposely wore a low-cut muslin dress. Not to mention Roddy, even the group of Dragon Spear Knights and barbarian soldiers in Roddy's hotel were blinded by the white ball.
"Go! Leave now! "
Roddy swallowed his saliva, turned around, and waved at Sylvia impatiently. "I told you to go back, so hurry up and go back, do you hear me?"
"… Yes."
Sylvia was pursing her lips, and after being yelled at by him, her whole body shivered. She thought that she should at least put on a cooperative posture, so she covered her mouth and pretended to cry as she ran into the hotel.
Roddy gave her ten thumbs up in his heart, but he put on a disdainful expression and said in a low voice, "Unappreciative woman, hmph!"
After that, he put on a smiling face and said to Doris, "Let's go. I'll have to trouble Miss Doris to lead the way!"
Doris didn't have much expression on her face, but her walking posture could be said to be extremely charming. She whispered beside Roddy while swaying her hips as she walked into the distance.
It wasn't until Roddy's exaggerated laughter gradually faded away that David and the others at the entrance of the hotel came back to their senses.
"Damn … Boss is still ruthless!"
He glared at her exaggeratedly and clapped his hands. "Yesterday, you told me that Tuk women are not to be trifled with, but today, you took care of one of their leaders without saying a word! Impressive! "
"Where did that woman come from? Her * * * * * * skin is still so fair!"
"That's not right. When did Wizard Sylvia get together with Boss?"
The Dragon Lance Riders gossiped around them, but their voices quieted down after a few sentences. This was because they saw Sylvia, who had just run upstairs, had returned and was looking out furtively. Seeing that David and the others were chatting, she asked softly, "Has Lord Roddy left?"
"He went over there, Wizard Sylvia. Just now —"
David shut his mouth before he could finish his sentence. All the Dragon Lancers fell silent at the same time, because they saw Akasha and Naifei walk into the courtyard at the same time. However, they didn't seem to notice what had just happened, and they were still chatting and laughing.
That was really dangerous …
David was very smart on the battlefield, and his reaction wasn't slow at this moment. He immediately stood at attention. "Stay alert and return to your posts!"
"Yes!"
The Dragon Lance Riders stood at attention and scattered in all directions without looking sideways. Davian smiled at Sylvia and immediately slipped away.
"Sylvia, you're back? Where's Roddy? "
Akasha approached and asked. The latter replied with a stutter, "Lord Roddy, he, he went to the hotel next door to discuss some matters."
"Next door?"
Her eyebrows gradually raised. Sylvia was, after all, an undead spirit that she had awakened. Looking at Sylvia's expression, Akasha felt that something wasn't right. Sylvia didn't dare to talk nonsense in front of her "master". Akasha only stared at her for a few seconds, and she immediately poured the beans and sold out Roddy …
Anyway, Roddy didn't say that I couldn't talk about this. It's more important to stay alive!
Sylvia also had no choice. She carefully raised her head and glanced at Akasha. She realized that the usually amiable priestess had raised her eyebrows and didn't look too good.
"One look and I can tell that this group of women isn't anything good!"
Akasha said angrily and pulled Naifei, who didn't dare to make a sound, upstairs. Sylvia followed behind and secretly stuck out her tongue. She was glad that … she didn't say that Roddy wanted her to act …
*****
On the other side, Roddy naturally didn't know the painful fact that he had been sold out. He was led to a seat by Doris and chatted with her "happily".
Dinner was served one by one. Roddy intentionally acted as if he had "seen a lot of the world" and only tasted the dishes. Every time he ate a dish, he would compare it with the cuisine of the Kingdom of Karen. Of course, the content of the comparison was mainly to brag about how wealthy the Kingdom of Karen was.
"The wine is a little lacking. The Kingdom of Karen has elf-brewed wine. The taste is much better than this. Using Lassman's currency, it's at least one gold coin per bottle. Hey, believe me, I'm the one who controls the elf-brewed wine business. I've made a lot of money in a year! "
"I didn't know that Lord Roddy was so talented …"
Doris was dressed very glamorously at the moment. It could even be said that any man would feel his blood pumping when he saw her. The way Roddy touched her chest from time to time had clearly proved this point. On the table, she wasn't as shy as before. Instead, she spoke boldly, which made Roddy, who frequently raised his glass, exclaim in delight.
"Doris, I'm not bragging … If you have a say in Eiseka, feel free to come and talk to me! The Kingdom of Karen may not have much, but we can give you all kinds of resources! What specialty products do you have in Eiseka? I think your gauze dress is not bad. Really not bad! "
This was said while pointing at Doris's breasts. His words made Doris blush. However, she didn't back down. Instead, she gently puffed out her chest, raised her glass, and said, "Then when the time comes, I really have to rely on Lord Roddy! This glass is to the Kingdom of Karen! "
"Okay!"
Roddy raised his glass and drank it in one gulp. He couldn't drink at all in the past, but after he obtained the "Heart of the Demon", the Dragons' bloodline seemed to be completely immune to alcohol. As a result, drinking now was no different from drinking water. However, Roddy still pretended to be tipsy. After Doris poured out the "tragic history" of Eiseka over the years, Roddy couldn't help but raise his voice.
"This Lacheman is really a piece of sh * t! Ah … He said that the Parliament wanted to talk to me, but what happened in the end? He pushed it to some Blinka Academy … He's obviously looking down on us! "
"We have our own difficulties … We have to hand in so many things every year. Many people in the country even starve to death." Doris looked sad. She raised her glass and drank it all. Rody, who was watching from the side, quickly followed suit. "Hey! Don't drink so much! Your body can't take it. "
"Lord Roddy really knows how to care about people."
Doris smiled like a flower. Roddy laughed foolishly, but at the same time, he gripped his glass tightly. He realized that Doris had just cast a mental spell again.
Glancing at the status bar, Roddy knew that Doris was trying to get information out of him, but how could he let her do as she wished? So, after a simple thought, he raised his glass and drank it. With a "clang", he pretended to collapse on the table uncontrollably.
The corner of Doris' mouth curled up. She pushed Roddy and found that he was in a daze. She walked down from her seat and helped Roddy sit upright. Then, after chanting a spell a few times, she finally made Roddy slowly "wake up" …
"Hmm?"
Roddy looked at her in confusion. His expression was a little dull. In fact, he was simulating the "Truth-telling Spell" being cast on him.
This spell did not require a lot of magic power like "Mind Control", but it could not see through the mind of the target. So, Doris could only confirm whether the spell was effective by looking at Roddy's state. Obviously, Roddy's performance was flawless.
So, the smile on Doris' face disappeared. She said coldly, "Where did you get that pet by your side?"
Hearing this, Rody finally understood the other party's purpose. He laughed in his heart, but he quickly replied, "In the Kingdom of Karen. A mage gave it to me."
"It seems that the Kingdom of Karen also has a mage who is proficient in this …"
