Report

Ogland, of course, knew what kind of place the Misty Waters was. Her family had their own business in this area, so she had naturally heard of the forbidden and dangerous areas. When she heard that Fangzheng was actually going to the Misty Waters, Ogland was naturally very surprised. But soon, she threw the matter to the back of her mind.

Because there was a more important matter in front of her.

"How can you eat this?!"

Ogland's face turned pale with anger as she looked at the grilled fish on the wooden plate in front of her. She had eaten all kinds of delicacies on her family's ship, but here, she was only given a grilled fish with a few pieces of dry bread and apple slices? This was their dinner? What the hell?!

Ogland held the wooden fork in her hand and looked at the food on the plate in front of her. She really could not eat a single bite. But after falling into the water for so long, she had already used up a lot of her physical strength. Her stomach was growling with hunger. So, Ogland gritted her teeth, picked up the fork, picked up a piece of fish, and put it in her mouth …

"Wah!!"

The next moment, she vomited it out.

"Is this even edible?"

For Ogland, who was used to eating delicacies, she could never imagine that such food existed. The fish was not scaled and was only casually roasted over a fire after removing its innards and sprinkling some salt on it. Not only did it have a fishy taste, the fish was so hard that she could not even bite through it. Since Ogland was born, she had never eaten something like this. She immediately cried out in grievance.

"I won't eat it! I absolutely won't eat this!"

"But, but cousin, we really don't have anything else to eat …."

Seeing Ogland's suicidal look, the well-dressed man also looked aggrieved.

"I've asked Captain Fox. The supplies on this ship were originally for their own people. Now that we're here, the supplies won't be enough …."

"That won't do. I absolutely can't eat this kind of thing. I'd rather die than eat this kind of thing!"

Ogland threw away the fork in her hand and stared fiercely at the grilled fish on the plate. The well-dressed man looked at her awkwardly, then scratched his head helplessly.

"Why don't … we go see what the Lord and the others are having for dinner? If it's possible … "

"What are you talking about? Our Platinum Family would never do something like that!"

"No no no, cousin, that's not what I meant!"

Seeing Ogland's expression, the well-dressed man hurriedly waved his hand.

"We, we can buy some to eat. That shouldn't be a problem, right?"

"That's true …"

Upon hearing her cousin's suggestion, Ogland was a little tempted. Although she felt that it would be a loss of face, her rumbling stomach obviously didn't care about her reputation. In the end, Ogland gritted his teeth and made his decision.

"Let's go and see what they're eating. If possible, we'll buy some to eat!"

Although she had long thought that the food they ate should be different from Fangzheng and the others, when Ogland brought his henchmen and cousin out of the cabin and onto the deck, the scene in front of her almost made her die of anger!

At the front of the deck, there was a rectangular dining table covered with a white tablecloth and lit with bright red candles. A faint magical aura appeared around it, blocking the splashing waves. On the table, there were all kinds of steaming food, including roast chicken, steak, and even delicious fish soup and freshly baked bread. As for Fangzheng, he was sitting in front of a table with the others. As he enjoyed the sumptuous food, he chatted cheerfully. Even the sailors were holding cups of wine that emitted a fragrant aroma as they shouted and enjoyed themselves.

It was simply insane!

Looking at the scene in front of her, Ogland was so angry that her eyes almost popped out. Looking at the sumptuous dinner in front of her, then thinking about the disgusting roast fish she got — Ogland really wanted to rush over and overturn the table, then slap all the soup in the bowl onto the man's face!

As a noble, why don't you even know the etiquette of entertaining distinguished guests? You let us eat this, but you're eating and drinking so well? This was simply too much!!

"Cousin, don't be angry, don't be angry!"

Seeing that Ogland was about to rush over and reason with the man, the well-dressed man beside her hurriedly pulled her back.

"How can I not be angry? How dare they neglect a member of the Platinum Family like that! This is simply rude and rude! "

"But cousin, you can't just rush over like that. They're eating … And don't forget that the man is a powerful being who dared to kill a Divine Knight in front of the Holy Cathedral. Cousin, don't tell me you think you're luckier than that woman …."

"Ugh …."

Hearing this, Ogland's expression suddenly changed. Connie's death was a huge shock to the upper echelons of the Kingdom of Saints. Ogland had seen that woman several times. To be honest, although Ogland did not like Connie, she was a Divine Knight after all, so even if Ogland did not like her, he would not deliberately cause trouble for her. No one had expected someone to completely disregard Connie's reputation as a Divine Paladin and kill her in front of so many people!

Not only that, after that, the Holy Cathedral revoked all the honour of the Connie Family. Even Connie's father, the once glorious Knight Captain, was stripped of his identity and forced to retire and live in seclusion. No matter how powerful the Platinum Family was, they could not be more powerful than the Castina Family, which was once blessed by God. And the Castina Family had already been killed by Fangzheng. Even if she was the future star of the Platinum Family ….

"What should I do …. I can't not eat!"

"Leave it to me."

Hearing his cousin's pitiful look, the well-dressed man sighed. He hesitated for a moment, but in the end, he still walked forward cautiously …. But before he could get close, a magic servant quickly blocked his way.

"What can I do for you?"

"Please inform Mr. Fangzheng …."

Looking at the magic servant in front of him, the well-dressed man looked embarrassed. No matter what, he was the descendant of a noble family, yet he was begging like a beggar. This kind of thing was shameful, but what else could he do? Was he really going to let them starve?

"We don't have enough food, so …. I wonder if we can buy some food from Mr. Fangzheng?"

"Please wait a moment."

After hearing the well-dressed man's request, the servant made of magic runes turned to look at Fangzheng. Soon, Fangzheng raised his head, glanced at the servant, and smiled. At the same time, the magic servant gave an answer.

"Master said yes. Please wait a moment."

After saying that, the well-dressed man saw the magic servant turn around and leave. Not long after, it took out a few paper cylinders from a big box next to it. The magic servant opened the paper covering the cylinders, took out some strange seasonings, and sprinkled them on. Then, he poured boiled water into the cylinders and covered them again.

Not long after, a fragrant aroma spread on the deck. Not only did Ogland and the others feel their appetites aroused, even the sailors couldn't help but swallow their saliva. After a while, the magic servant picked up the plates again and came to the well-dressed man and Ogland.

"Let, let me eat first!

After being attacked and thrown into the sea, Ogland, who hadn't eaten for a day, couldn't help but want to reach out his hand. But before he could take out the strange paper cup from the plate, the magic servant suddenly stepped back. He looked at Ogland and the others in front of him and said.

"Master has ordered us to pay first before serving the meal. Please pay."

"Of course, I'm not short of money!"

Upon hearing the magic servant's answer, Ogland glared at him fiercely. Fortunately, his money bag didn't sink into the sea with the other valuables, so he had enough confidence.

"Tell me, how much is it?"

In response to Ogland's question, the magic servant calmly gave an answer.

"One platinum coin … a bucket."

"… What?"

Upon hearing this, Ogland blinked and jumped up in exasperation.

"Why doesn't he just rob someone?!"

It was no wonder that Ogland was so exasperated. Platinum coins were the most valuable currency in the main world. One platinum coin was equivalent to 100 gold coins, and that bucket of noodles was only a bowl at most … Yet, this bowl of noodles cost him one platinum coin?

That was daylight robbery!

"This is Master's order."

The magic servant seemed very calm. Or rather, these magic creatures had no emotions.

"Master said that if you don't want it, throw it all away."

"Ugh … That bastard …"

Upon hearing this, Ogland gritted her teeth, glanced at the people around her, and stomped her foot heavily.
