Chapter 708 I miss you!

After Weldon left, Gervis did not go to the back garden to find Alice and Adela, but went directly back to the small building in the manor and went to the configuration room that had just moved in a few days ago.

His injuries had improved over the past few days, so Gervis started preparing medicine without stopping.

Since he still owed the city lords three hundred potions, Gervis naturally had to fulfill his promise.

Not to mention that Duke Edward has already guaranteed him, even as the city lord he is now, he must guarantee to keep his word, so that he can better interact with other city lords in the future.

Although he is not yet the Lord of the Holy City and cannot truly be on equal footing with those Lords of the Holy City, Gervis feels that he has the seeds of the holy tree and can definitely grow a holy tree. It is only a matter of time before the Lord of Stormwind City becomes the Lord of the Holy City.

He had asked Edward how to grow the holy tree. Edward told him that in order to grow the holy tree, he must go to the place where the gods fell to find the remaining divinity of the gods.

Although the god's godhead is rare, Gervis feels that there is hope as long as he works hard to find it. After all, he still has a treasure-hunting function.

"Hmm! Concentrate on preparing the potion. There are still twenty left. I can finish it this afternoon, and I still have some extra time. I have to reserve a few stocks for myself!"

Gervis is now very familiar with preparing potions. He not only has magic but also fighting spirit.

Moreover, it is only equipped with the three most common recovery potions. What really makes the potion magical is the existence of the miraculous kiwi fruit.

Therefore, it is actually not difficult to prepare the magic potion. As long as Gervis has enough energy points, he can prepare it quickly.

These days, when Gervis is preparing potions, he can basically prepare twenty potions with one kiwi fruit.

This is not because Gervis cut corners, but because the potions were originally prepared in small batches, so the fruit pulp cut by Gervis varied in size and more pulp was consumed.

But now that he was producing in large quantities, he divided the pulp evenly. This way, not only would the effectiveness of the medicine be consistent and fair to everyone, but one fruit could also be used to make several more bottles of medicine, helping him save energy points!

"Well, it will be enough to exchange for another golden kiwi fruit!"

After preparing all the ingredients for the potion, Gervis opened his system panel again.

Now he only has 265 energy points left, and preparing 280 potions cost him 140 energy points!

"It seems I have to find a way to find the beastmen to earn some energy points. I didn't expect that I would spend most of my energy points in just over two months in this City of Hope!"

After looking at his own energy points, Gervis felt a sense of crisis again.

Originally I thought that more than 600 energy points could keep me safe for a while, but now I am almost back to the time before liberation!

After muttering to himself, Gervis didn't think any more about it and directly exchanged it for a golden kiwi fruit. Then he closed the system panel and started to prepare the potion!

Time flies. Gervis stayed in the configuration room for half a day and didn't notice the weather outside at all.

Boom boom boom!

"Grevith, it's going to be dark soon! We should go to the manor in Sky City!"

Just at this moment, there was a knock on Gervis' door.

The person who came was Alice!

"Okay, Alice! I'll be right there!"

Reminded by Alice's words, Gervis turned his head and looked out the window. Sure enough, the sun had set.

However, at this time, Gervis's potion had just been prepared.

In one afternoon, he not only prepared the remaining twenty potions that needed to be handed over to the lords of the holy city, but also prepared more than twenty more potions as reserves.

After quickly cleaning up the remaining materials on the preparation table, Gervis walked out of the preparation room.

When Gervis arrived at the lobby of the small building, Alice and Adela were already waiting for him.

Alice has now changed into a purple long dress, which looks noble and gorgeous.

Although the hem of the long skirt fell directly to the ground, completely covering Alice's long legs, the close-fitting design of the long skirt fully highlighted Alice's perfect figure.

As for Adela, she surprised Gervis even more.

Although she was still wearing a white dress at this time, it was no longer the same one she wore at noon.

The fluffy white princess dress is not only decorated with numerous crystals of various colors, but most importantly, there is a V-shaped hollow on her back that extends directly from the back of her neck to the center of her back.

At this time, Adela was talking to Alice with her back to Gervis, and her flawless white back was naturally exposed in front of Gervis.

"It would be a shame not to use cupping on such a beautiful back!"

Gervis couldn't help but think of a popular internet phrase from his previous life.

"Grevith, you're here! Hurry up and change into your dress, we're leaving now!"

"Grevith..."

When Alice saw Gervis coming into the hall, she immediately urged him.

At this time, Adela finally realized that Gervis had arrived, and she turned around and shyly called out to Gervis.

In the past, Adela always dressed very conservatively, and the clothes she wore were basically round-necked, not even with curbs.

At noon today, she asked the servants to bring a large pile of dresses to the manor, wanting to discuss with Alice what kind of clothes to wear tonight.

Finally, Alice recommended this dress with a V-shaped opening on the back to her.

I have to say that this dress is really beautiful. The colorful crystals embellished on it sparkle under the light, and it is absolutely eye-catching when you wear it.

Unfortunately, the only thing Adela was dissatisfied with was that a small part of her back was exposed, after all, this was not her style.

In the end, it was Alice who persuaded her, saying that this kind of dress was Gervis's favorite in the past, and Adela put it on reluctantly.

"OK!"

Although Adela's beautiful back did make Gervis want to take a few more glances.

But because Alice was present, Gervis naturally did not dare to show any abnormality. He nodded and went to the locker room under the guidance of Anna.

With Anna's help, Gervis quickly changed into a formal suit, which made him look even more handsome.

Then Gervis, Alice and others followed the convoy out of the manor and headed directly towards the manor where the Sky City was based.

Tonight, Duke Edward specially hosted a dinner party at the manor in Sky City, and this dinner party was held for Gervis and others.

Gervis will return to the Sacred Forest with Alice tomorrow. Duke Edward did this not only to show his respect for Gervis but also to bid him farewell.

He even wanted to introduce Johnson and other city lords who had formed an alliance with Sky City to Gervis.

This is to avoid any misunderstanding when the two sides meet in the future, where the other party recognizes Gervis but Gervis does not recognize the other party.

…

The convoy traveled along the wide streets of the inner city and soon arrived at the gate of the Sky City headquarters.

The Sky City resident manor has been decorated with lights tonight, but because of the lesson learned from the Leng Feicui Manor, sufficient defense measures have been taken this time.

There were more than ten white-flag knights at the door, and more than ten griffins circling in the sky.

"Welcome to Lord Gervis!"

"Welcome to Her Majesty the Elf Queen!"

"Welcome Miss Adela!"

"We welcome Prince Alder!"

When the convoy passed directly through the gate and arrived at the square where the coronation ceremony of the Guardian Knight was held that day, a group of servants were already waiting there.

When he saw Gervis and others getting off the carriage, he immediately bowed and greeted them respectfully!

"Haha! Gervis! Your Majesty the Elf Queen, you are finally here!"

At this time, Edward was already waiting at the door of the manor building to greet them!

Beside him were a dozen lords of the holy city, as well as their families and descendants.

"I'm very sorry, Duke Edward, I forgot the time when I was preparing the potion this afternoon, so I'm late!"

When Gervis saw that the lords of the holy cities were already waiting, he knew that he must be late.

After saying that, Gervis also apologized to the other city lords.

"Sorry, city lords, I've kept you waiting for so long!"

"Haha! It's not too late, it's not too late, we just arrived! Lord Gervis is too polite."

Immediately, all the city lords responded politely to Gervis with warm smiles on their faces.

At the same time, Gervis' polite attitude also made the city lords secretly surprised.

They really didn't expect that the brutal killer had such a gentle side.

"grandfather!"

As the city lords finished their pleasantries, Adela trotted over to Duke Edward!

At this time, Gervis had already arrived at her own manor, so naturally she had to act nice to her grandfather first.

"Pearl of the Sky City, do you still remember your grandfather? He hasn't seen you much in the past few days!"

Edward lovingly stroked Adela who threw herself into his arms and said something in pretended displeasure.

These days, Adela only returned under the protection of the guards at night, but ran to Gervis every day during the day, and no one could even see him.

This made Edward say that girls should not be kept when they grow up.

If Alice hadn't been there, Edward would have worried that his granddaughter would have been abducted by Gervis.

"Grandfather! I've always remembered you!"

After being told this by her grandfather in public, Adela immediately shouted at Edward in grievance.

After all, so many people knew that she went to Gervis' place every day, which was not a good look.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"Alright! Alright! Grandfather won't say anything to you anymore! The banquet can begin now! Please invite Gervis and the Elf Queen into the banquet hall first!"

Edward naturally would not really scold his precious daughter. Seeing Adela looking somewhat ashamed and angry, he immediately continued to stroke her head and then spoke softly.

"Well! Then I'll take Sister Alice in!"

Adela immediately became cheerful again and ran towards Alice.

"Sister Alice, Gervis! Let's go in!"

Then, Alice was pulled by Adela towards the gate.

Gervis and Olde fell behind, and then everyone entered the banquet hall together.

Today's dinner was casual because it was just to bid farewell to Gervis, and Edward did not go on stage to speak.

Instead, after the banquet began, he took Gervis to meet the city lords, and Gervis also talked to them politely and got to know them.

After all, these people will be considered his allies in the future and will stand on the united front.

After Gervis and the others introduced themselves to each other and chatted for a while, the atmosphere of the dinner reached its climax, and the rhythm of the music in the hall became cheerful.

The descendants brought by the Lord of the Holy City began to look for their favorite dance partners and entered the venue to dance to the music.

At this time, Gervis also apologized to the city lords and temporarily stopped chatting with them.

Alice was not familiar with the people here, and she was the only one he could talk to, so Gervis didn't want to ignore her.

When Gervis looked around, he finally saw Alice and Adela eating and chatting at the edge of the hall.

But at the same time, Gervis also found that many young people actually ran to Alice and Adela, as if inviting Adela to dance.

Of course, in the end they were all rejected by Adela.

As for Alice, they certainly had the desire but not the courage. Not to mention that the elves were unfriendly to humans, it was impossible for them to accept their invitation.

Besides, everyone knows that the Elf Queen is the wife of the God of Death. Only those who think their own life is too long would dare to invite Alice to dance.

At that moment, Gervis did not delay and walked directly towards Alice and Adela.

"Grevith! You're here!"

"Grevith, why don't you chat with those city lords for a while? I have Adela here with me, so I won't be bored!"

Seeing Gervis coming over, Adela and Alice spoke up.

Alice obviously knew why Gervis came over and immediately advised him.

She knew that Stormwind wanted to develop, and it was important to establish good relationships with these city lords, so she didn't want Gervis to be delayed in his work because of her.

"With Adela's grandfather here, I just need to get to know them a little bit!"

However, Gervis sat directly next to Alice and was not prepared to chat with the city lords anymore.

"Um!"

After hearing what Gervis said, Alice didn't say anything more. Gervis now knew much more about these things than she did.

"Alice, let's go up and dance!"

Suddenly, Gervis uttered a sentence!

Looking at the cheerful men and women in the field, Gervis suddenly remembered the scene of him and Alice dancing alone in her arms at her birthday party, and he actually felt a little nostalgic.

"Um!"

What surprised Gervis was that Alice agreed very readily!

With such a quick reaction, it was obvious that Alice had the same idea as him.

"Sister Adela, Gervis and I will go upstairs and dance first, you wait here for a while!"

After agreeing to Gervis, Alice immediately said something to Adela beside her!

"Okay! Sister Alice! Just go ahead and dance without worry!"

Although Adela's eyes flashed with disappointment, her face was still full of smiles, and she nodded vigorously to Alice.

Then Gervis and Alice went directly to the dance floor in the center of the hall.

Although Gervis had not danced much from the past to now, today was different.

Today, Gervis not only possesses a photographic memory, but also has excellent body coordination due to his greatly increased strength.

After coming on stage, he hugged Alice and began to dance in perfect harmony with Alice to the beautiful music.

The two looked into each other's eyes under the shining deep-sea pearl above their heads. At this moment, there was only each other in their eyes.

“Alice!”

As the music played and they embraced each other in the air, looking into Alice's beautiful sapphire eyes, Gervis couldn't help but think of what Anna had said in the past few days about the hardships Alice had endured to find him, and suddenly he called out softly unconsciously.

"Um!"

Alice also stared at Gervis closely, and her sapphire eyes reflected Gervis' handsome face.

Hearing Gervis' call, he immediately responded softly.

"I miss you!"

What Gervis actually wanted to say was: I like you!

However, although Gervis now looks less than 20 years old, he not only has the soul experience of traveling through time.

Having experienced a series of bloody storms in this dangerous fantasy world, it can be said that his mind has become very mature. He is no longer embarrassed to say "I like you", "I love you" and other "pretentious" words like young people.

So when the words came to my lips, they turned directly into: I miss you.

When Alice heard Gervis say, "I miss you," she trembled unconsciously.

After the trembling, Alice's heart was beating a little. She stared at Gervis for a moment, then spoke slowly and affectionately.

"Grevith! I missed you too!"

As she spoke, Alice suddenly moved closer to Gervis and kissed him directly on the lips!

This is unprecedented!

In fact, even though Alice has never revealed her feelings to Gervis in the past few days, she has deliberately suppressed them deep in her heart!

There are many reasons for suppressing this emotion.

First, it was because the battle interrupted the excitement of the two people meeting each other.

After that, Adela came to the manor every day, and the two of them had no chance to sit down and talk to each other.

Then Lolita framed Gervis, which made Alice a little angry.

But the most important thing is Alice's personality. She is a calm and quiet person, not as passionate as Caroline.

The combination of all the above reasons made Alice lose the opportunity and courage to open her heart!

Until Gervis's unconscious words "I miss you" just now, it seemed as if he had unearthed the true feelings that Alice had buried deep in her heart for the past few days.

Let all the thoughts and love surge out at this moment, that's why Alice is so desperate and proactive!
