Because I was considering the amount of information, this chapter took a long time than I expected, and I was forced to drop a leave note, which is uncomfortable.

Old Fate: Chapter 20 Indulgence and Suffering

On the third day after arriving in the imperial capital, Amy, led by Sarina, went for a stroll around the northern district. She ate lunch in a tavern on the street and returned to her residence near dusk.

Not long after they came back, Emperor Eugenes personally ran over and informed them of the arrangements for the royal treasure house.

Unfortunately, Eugenes was not able to convince his stubborn uncle, Amy, that a duel was inevitable as she wanted to borrow the Spellbreaker.

Eugenes came to discuss with them, on which day the duel should be set, and where the competition venue should be set.

Sirin heard the words: "Since the duel has been confirmed, it is better to proceed as soon as possible, tomorrow—"

"Wait, I think the day after tomorrow is more appropriate." Amy interrupted Sirin.

Sirin froze for a moment, looked at Amy's face, but did not stop her.

"As for the venue, is there a martial arts arena inside the palace?" Amy asked Eugenes.

Eugenes looked a little bit embarrassed: "Yes, there are, but the martial arts arena in the palace may not be able to handle two legendary professionals. You two can do whatever you want."

"That's fine." Amy made a decision for Sirin, and said: "The time and place have been decided like this. I'm sorry to trouble you to discuss it in person."

It's embarrassing to say, but there is no shame on the moon elf's face, nor is there even a trace of awe.

Eugenes sighed helplessly in his heart. In the face of these detached and powerful men, his status as emperor really didn't mean much.

"The specific time will be set in the afternoon of the day after tomorrow." Eugenes glanced at Sarina not far away, and said, "It's a rare opportunity for two legendary swordsmen to fight. Xiaoqi can follow me to watch the battle and see if I can Learn something."

Selina quickly bowed and nodded, and agreed.

The title "Little Seven" made her miss it a lot. After her childhood, she was sent to study in the Red Dragon Knights. Since then, her father has never used this title.

She was also a little excited in her heart. As a warrior, no one could refuse to watch this duel.

After announcing the duel, Eugenes took his leave and left.

Regardless of the emperor's true thoughts, when communicating with Amy and others, he always maintained a relatively peaceful attitude, neither humble nor overbearing.

It is actually not easy to do this while knowing the identities of several people.

"Why move the duel to the day after tomorrow?"

After Eugenes left, there was no one else in the yard, and Sirin couldn't hold back her doubts and asked.

Amy pursed her lips, and said, "I have a simple conjecture, and I won't be able to verify it until tomorrow."

Judging from the current cooling state of [Legendary Casting], this skill should be able to be used again tomorrow. If it can really take effect on Sirin, it may make the duel the day after tomorrow easier.

Sirin didn't continue to ask, she was willing to trust Amy's judgment.

Leah pinched her fingers slightly unhappily, she probably guessed what Amy was thinking.

When night fell, the streets of Camillo City were still very lively, with a steady stream of pedestrians, not much less than during the day.

In front of a shop that specializes in selling snacks and drinks, a girl with long black hair and a height of less than 1.5 meters is ordering in a "proud and dry cloud" posture.

"Five servings of this kind of grilled meat sticks! Five servings of vegetable skewers! Three servings of that burnt bread slice! Is this boiled dal fruit? Two servings! Umm... and this one, this one! Both ones !"

The owner of the small shop smiled happily, "Well! Beautiful lady, please wait a moment, I'll prepare a meal for you!"

The girl showed a satisfied smile on her face, but Lukes behind her had a bitter expression.

Threatened by the girl's impatient stomping, Lukes reluctantly took out his wallet and stepped forward to pay.

As a cadre-level figure of the Church of Dissonance, his monthly salary is only ten gold coins. Although he can make money through other means, he has always disdain to do anything, so he doesn't have much money on hand, and the total is only ten gold coins. The family property of less than two hundred gold coins has been saved.

This highness from the abyss said she was going to the city to reminisce about the old days, and when she entered the city just in time for the spread to open earlier, she was immediately hooked by the aroma of the food, reluctant to move away, and completely forgot about reminiscing about the past.

After eating the whole street of breakfast stalls, I happened to come to the category of dessert shops. After experiencing the baptism of dessert shops and black tea shops, it was lunch time again, and there were several pubs in front of me...

Dolores didn't mention the old things, and Lux ​​didn't dare to ask the reason, so he could only silently take on the duties of the payment machine and tool taker, and serve His Highness well with a very serious attitude.

In short, after eating all the way, the two went from the North District to the Dongcheng District, and then from the Dongcheng District to the South District. Dolores' stomach was like a bottomless pit, and no matter how much food she had, she couldn't fill it up. She just finished a meal in a tavern. For the barbecue feast, she immediately went to the street food stalls to spend heavily.

She is a visitor from the abyss, and she did not bring the common currency of the mainland with her at all. In order to prevent the incident from becoming a big deal and attract guards, Lukes had to pay the money out of his own pocket. After a day, his small coffers were basically exhausted. He couldn't even make up a whole gold coin for the snack shop's bill.

The owner of the snack shop packed all the food into boxes, and Dolores winked. Lukes had no choice but to step forward and pick them up together, and continued walking towards the depths of the street.

His financial situation was tight, so he had to speak in a low voice: "His Royal Highness Edgar, to tell you the truth, I don't have any gold coins with me. You think it's not enough today, so find a place to rest first?"

Dolores was eating happily. She swallowed the food in her mouth, rolled her eyes with extreme dissatisfaction, and said very bluntly: "Is that witch so inconsiderate? The servants prepared for the concubine don't even have gold coins." Didn't bring enough?"

But I'm not a servant...

Lukes really wanted to refute, but he didn't dare. This Highness has a bad temper, she is the kind of crazy woman who kills without batting an eye, and she really has the ability to take her own life by raising her hand.

"Your Highness Edgar, what do you think of this? Our church has a joint in the city, I'll try my luck, maybe I can get some more money." Lukes said, "But that joint is not in Nancheng District, We have to go west..."

In fact, he still has some stocks in his hand that can be exchanged for money, but entertaining this domineering Highness must be spent with public funds, right?He kept all of today's expenses in his mind, and he had to find someone to reimburse him when he returned home.

"Humph! I can see that you have no sincerity in hospitality at all! You don't respect me enough!" Dolores took a bite of the bread and said, "You don't need to get money, today's food tour Let's stop here!"

Lukes froze for a moment, then subconsciously replied: "Are you full?"

"Yulu! How can you ask a lady in such a tone?" Dolores bit off the remaining slice of bread and gently touched her lower abdomen.She seemed to be eating gracefully, but she was eating so fast that Lukes couldn't figure out why.

"And you don't know the eating habits of the people of the abyss at all. As long as I am willing, I can eat for seven days without stopping. No amount of food can make me truly satisfied!"

Dolores said this with a smug look on her face, as if it was something to be proud of.

Lukes couldn't vomit because he couldn't vomit, and his face turned red. He could only comfort himself from the bottom of his heart. Serving this restless guest could save his life at least. Besides, although Dolores had a bad personality and vicious words, she was very beautiful. It's quite eye-catching, but he can accept being treated roughly.

The two walked along the snack street, Dolores was still eating non-stop, and even Lukes swallowed.

When this Highness ate, the smile on his face was contagious. Just watching her eat made people feel that the food was delicious.

As if hearing the sound of him swallowing, Dolores glared at Lukes fiercely, with a murderous look in her strange eyes, "Don't covet my concubine's food! It's not something you can get your hands on!"

"No!" Lukes quickly confessed, "I dare not, dare not!"

"Can I arrange a place to stay tonight?" Dolores took only 10 minutes to put all the snacks she bought just now into her belly. Asked while blowing hot air.

Lukes secretly estimated the coins in his purse, high-end hotels would definitely be unaffordable, but the small shops on the street would definitely arouse the wrath of His Highness, and it would only be more difficult to end.

Let's make do with it, sell a few magic crystals for some money, and find a better accommodation environment.

Lukes thought so, and happened to see a shop not far away.

Black Pearl Chamber of Commerce.

This seems to be a medium-sized chamber of commerce in the southern seaport. There are only a few small shops in the imperial capital, and it also does business such as magic spar purchases. The price is fair, at least better than that obsidian chamber of commerce.

Although the Obsidian Chamber of Commerce says it has no taboos and accepts everything, but the price is really black-hearted, to the extent that even cultists like them feel disgusted.

The momentum is quite strong, that is, relying on the support of high-ranking officials and nobles, otherwise it will definitely be overthrown by the Phoenix Chamber of Commerce.

Lukes complained a few words from the bottom of his heart, and said to Dolores with a smile on his face: "Your Highness Edgar, please wait a moment, I will go to the chamber of commerce over there to do some small things, and then I will take you to the place where you live."

Dolores waved her hand and said, "Go and come back quickly, you are not a gourmet, don't keep me waiting for too long!"

Lukes nodded in agreement, trotted into the Black Pearl Chamber of Commerce, and came to the front of the counter.

The shopkeeper on duty was a young man with blond braids, no beard, a warm expression, and a friendly smile on his face. He asked, "My customer, what do you want to buy? Or is there something else?" The goods are going to be sold?"

Lukes took out a small cloth bag from his bosom, and after opening it, several magic crystals of good quality were revealed, "Brother, how much do you think these are worth?"

"Magic spar?" The young boss froze for a moment, with a more friendly smile on his face, and said: "This guest, I am Iverson Vandok, the owner of this chamber of commerce, can you reveal your name? ?"

Lukes frowned slightly.

Iverson immediately added: "Guests, you don't know. The Imperial Capital issued a new law last month. Magic crystal transactions need to record the identity information of both parties. I can't help it. If you feel inconvenient, you can only go to The Obsidian Chamber of Commerce has traded there, and they have someone to support the stage, so this step can be omitted."

Lukes cursed secretly in his heart, who is going to sell things at that black-hearted chamber of commerce colluding with government and businessmen?At least [-]% of the money received was lost, and judging by Dolores' behavior, it seemed that "reminiscing" with old friends was not as important as eating, drinking and having fun. He changed it.

Fortunately, they were working outside and all had fake ID cards and passes. Lukes didn't panic, took out his ID card, patted it on the counter, and pushed it in front of Iverson.

Iverson glanced at it, recorded the news in the account book, and began to evaluate the price of the magic crystal.

He can be regarded as a proficient in this line of work, and he will get the result in a short time.The price of six gold-grade magic crystals was as high as [-] gold coins, and he immediately took out the cash.

Lukes took the money, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and asked casually, "Boss, are there any higher-end hotels near this street? Or other places where you can stay?"

"Mr. Lukes, right? Do you want to stay? Are you alone?" Iverson asked.

"Two, besides me, there is another young lady." Lukes said.

"The house behind our store is where you can stay. The price is reasonable, the rooms are clean and tidy, and we have all the services of the hostel, and even do better. If you are in a hurry to find a place to stay, why don't you consider it?" Iverson proficiently promoted.

Lukes vaccinated in advance, and said: "The young lady who is traveling with me has a weird temper and is not easy to serve."

"Please rest assured on this point, our service guarantee is thoughtful." Iverson is very confident in his own industry.

Lukes thought about it, the purchase price of Magic Crystal just now is very authentic, and the young boss seems to be good at doing business, so instead of looking elsewhere, it is better to be here, at least there is a guarantee.

"Then please arrange two rooms for us. When the eldest lady comes over later, your service staff should be more respectful and don't anger her." Lukes reminded.

He doesn't care about the lives of these people, but if Dolores loses her temper and kills people, the guards will definitely be attracted, and then...

If you talk too much, you will cry, and Lukes can't help it.

After making arrangements, he trotted out of the shop to find Dolores across the street.

With a glance, that His Highness with a strange brain circuit is no longer on the side of the road, and he does not know where he has gone.

To suffer!

Luke's heart tightened, how willful this little aunt is, he has a deep understanding today, if no one is looking after her, it will cause trouble sooner or later!

He didn't care about hiding his strength, let go of his magic power perception, and soon found an extremely huge source of magic power, and hurried to find it.

There is a bookstore opposite the corner of the street, and Dolores is just outside the store, standing in front of her is a girl who is not much different in height from her.

Wearing a luxurious long dress, the young girl has blond hair and red eyes, and looks outstanding. She is looking at Dolores.

Lukes has seen a portrait of a young girl, this is the youngest princess of the Red Dragon Empire, Mei Ji, known as the Pearl of the Empire!

He thought in his heart that something was wrong, it's over, wouldn't Dolores want to kidnap the princess? !

Leaving aside the consequences after the kidnapping, this princess is extremely favored, and there must be high-level guards hidden around her. Once there is a conflict, he and Dolores will definitely be targeted, and the sage and sword master will be there immediately!

For the sake of his life, we must never fight here!

ps: here we come~~

Although the salted fish rushes to the street, it will definitely not slip away without making a sound~~

Beg for votes with the cheek~

Old Fate: Chapter 21

Lux quickly crossed the road and was about to rush to Dolores, but the girl suddenly turned her head to look at him, with a sense of expulsion and warning in her strange eyes.

She didn't speak, but Lukes seemed to hear a voice in his mind.

"Without my concubine's permission, you despicable person are not allowed to come close!"

Lukes face was bitter, should he listen to this order or not?

In a daze, Dolores had already started communicating with Meggie.

The two girls were about the same height, and they were both beautiful. From Lux's position, he could only see their lips moving. As for the content of the exchange, he couldn't hear a word clearly.

Seeing Dolores like this, she shouldn't be able to fight.

Lukes suppressed the panic in his heart and waited on the side of the street with hands tied.

After about 5 minutes, Mei Ji left with a stack of books on her chest, with a thoughtful expression on her face, and she was a little dazed between her steps, as if she was out of her mind.

Dolores also strode back to Lux's side, glanced lightly, and said, "Although she is stupid, she can still understand my concubine's warning, and it's not hopeless."

Lukes chest felt tight, he quickly took a deep breath to adjust his state, suppressed his anger, and said, "Your Highness Edgar, do you know the identity of the girl just now?"

Dolores said: "If the concubine's body is not bad, she is a member of the imperial family, right? I'm afraid she is a direct blood relative who is valued."

"Your Highness is really amazing, you can see through her identity at a glance!" Lux gave a thumbs up and continued: "Her name is Meiji, she is..."

Lukes briefly introduced Meggie's identity, and secretly reminded Dolores that such a favored princess must be protected by someone around her, and she cannot do anything casually.

"Don't think of me as a fool like you!" Dolores crossed her arms to make the height rise even higher, she snorted disdainfully, "I have other plans, believe it or not, this Will Your Royal Highness get rid of the guards tomorrow morning and come here alone to meet this concubine?"
