Inside the staff break room, Li Aili sat at a round tea table and poured a cup of hot Earl Grey tea for a guest.
The tall and handsome Bogdard, without batting an eye, poured himself three times the amount of milk and six packets of sugar.
She found it cloying just looking at it.
Then, the guest, guided by 'fate', picked up the teacup and poured the steaming milk tea into his mouth all at once.
Li Aili: "!!!"
Bognar swallowed the scalding hot sweet milk tea and sighed, "Delicious."
"Here's the thing, I'm a peace-loving person who doesn't like getting involved in conflicts... well, I'm alone."
Li Aili looked up at the top of his head, and found that Bogdard's head was also completely empty.
This is absolutely unbelievable.
“But one day, my race experienced an internal conflict. I think that was over a thousand years ago… at that time…”
Li Aili took a deep breath. "Sir, get to the point."
The man gave Li Aili a disapproving look. "You short-lived people are always so impatient."
The man in front of me, who looks so elegant, is probably not human.
Li Aili smiled and said, "If we start from more than a thousand years ago, we probably wouldn't even get to the point by the time we get to tonight."
"Okay, let me think of a way to make you understand my situation in a short time."
The man slowly stroked his chin, thinking carefully for half an hour.
During this time, Ba Jin brought back a wax remover who helped the hairball Jupiter 'return' to human form.
Jupiter is not yet used to his original gender, and some aftereffects are quite obvious. He always subconsciously looks for knitting needles, then picks up a ball of yarn and starts knitting frantically.
Just as Jupiter was almost finished knitting half a sleeve, Bogdard finally slammed his fist into his palm, exclaiming, "I've got it!"
Li Aili, whose patience was almost completely exhausted, said, "That's wonderful."
"You'll understand when I explain it this way."
"I'm being hunted down and I need your help."
Li Aili: "…………"
The fact that you've survived this long with your personality already shows how unprofessional the people chasing you were.
Despite her complaints, Li Aili immediately gave a response since it concerned a life.
"This matter is probably going to be a bit difficult."
Bognar smiled mildly. "It's alright. Fate's guidance to me is 'good things come to those who wait.'"
The only things that could help Mr. Bognar evade capture were strategic alchemical potions.
Li Aili said, "The potions that can help you get out of your predicament are all strategic alchemical potions."
"And because of the limited raw materials, these medicines can only be produced in a fixed quantity each day."
"And all of these were decided by the lord of this territory."
"so……"
Before Li Aili could finish speaking, Bognar slammed a heavy box onto the coffee table with a thud.
"Can't I even pay these fees?" he said.
Li Aili frowned slightly, "Sir, this isn't about money..."
Before he finished speaking, Bognar opened the small box, revealing a dazzling expanse of emerald green.
The green stone seemed to contain a pool of spring water, shimmering with a magical halo.
Li Aili had only seen such a 'gem' once before, when Arthur gave her the necklace!
Li Aili: "!!!"
Is this some kind of God of Wealth?! A whole box full of dragon gems!
How much would a box of jade dragon gems, the smallest of which is the size of her fist, be worth?!
Li Aili took a deep breath and, with immense willpower, closed the box that tempted people to commit crimes. "I can take you to see the lord here. If you can persuade him, then this deal can be done!"
Bognar smiled and said, "My destiny star never gives wrong guidance."
After saying that, he took the box of jade dragon gems and followed Li Aili onto the carriage back to Constantinople.
The carriage stopped in the castle's forecourt. After Li Ai Li alighted, she asked Conrad, who had come out to greet her, "Where is the Duke? We have guests..."
Bognar leaped down from the carriage, saying urgently, "I'm afraid I must take my leave!"
“Now that we’re here,” Arthur Cold Jade’s voice suddenly came, “there’s no need to rush off.”
The Duke suddenly appeared behind Li Aili, as if it were a magician's spatial teleportation.
In the sunlight, Bognar's deep green pupils suddenly shrank to a vertical line.
He seemed to have suddenly transformed into a superhuman, sprinting at an inhuman speed toward the cliff behind the castle.
The wind generated by that speed directly messed up Li Aili's hair.
The Duke of Cold Emerald simply took off his coat slowly and casually tossed it to Conrad.
He pushed off with both feet, and like a bullet, he chased after Bognard.
His figure was so fast that it was almost impossible for the human eye to catch it.
Is this...is this the speed a Platinum-ranked knight should have? Li Aili was completely stunned on the spot.
Upon catching up with Bognard, the Cold Emerald Duke grabbed Bognard's dark green hair and slammed him to the ground like a rag doll.
Bognar's body flew backwards and diagonally towards the western forest like a kite with a broken string, finally crashing to the ground with a 'thud,' startling all the birds in the forest into flight.
"No, shouldn't we call the knights?" Li Aili was terrified.
Conrad straightened the Duke of Cold Emerald's coat and smiled, "The master will handle it."
As soon as she finished speaking, Li Aili felt the earth tremble beneath her feet. Then, from behind the castle, a deafening dragon roar resounded, "Roar—"
