[Chapter 352 Durandal]

“Is David in the office?”

Eva looked up at the person who came and greeted him with a smile: “It’s Gwen. I haven’t seen you much recently. Are you taking the exam?”

“No, I was delayed by other things.”

Gwen answered Eva’s words and pointed to the door of the office. Then she saw Eva gently waved her hand, indicating that David was not in.

“Out? At this time?”

She looked at the time deliberately. If she read it correctly, she would have dinner later, right?

“Have you had dinner?”

“Not yet.”

“Then let’s eat together!” Eva took care of the things at hand and walked towards the restaurant with Gwen. Usually, she would greet the people who stayed in Glamorgan Castle.

For example, Helen, Sophia, Hood, etc., but Eva didn’t call anyone today.

As if she had guessed Gwen’s question, Eva explained directly: “Helen has gone back to Sparta to visit relatives these days; Hood went to the naval base and did not stay in Glamorgan Castle… But she should go to the restaurant at dinner time.”

In addition, Belfast, as a competent butler, was already busy in the restaurant, and there was no need for Eva to call her.

Laura was the kind of person who appeared and disappeared mysteriously. If she did not use the communicator to ask, Eva could not be sure where Laura would be.

And there was no need to use the communicator to find Laura for such a small matter as eating. If Laura came back for dinner, she would naturally appear. If she did not appear, she would be eating with other friends outside, or simply returned to her own world.

After listening to it, Gwen keenly realized the key point: Eva did not mention Sofia, the princess of the Kingdom of Tiran, but she was “resident” in Glamorgan Castle and had no other place to go… Oh, no, her parents are also in Winter City now, did she go to see her parents?

When Gwen guessed this, she had already arrived at the restaurant and sat down.

Sure enough, Laura showed up soon. Surprisingly, she also invited Sylvanas to visit Glamorgan Castle. Hood

didn’t come back. Belfast said that Hood had said hello before and stayed at the naval base for dinner, and then continued to teach the navy soldiers modern naval warfare theory.

“Where’s David?”

Laura looked and found that David didn’t come, and Sophia didn’t show up either. She immediately thought of something and looked directly at Eva.

Eva nodded. Seeing this, Laura immediately acted like a hostess: “Is that so? Then there’s no need to wait for them.”

Although she didn’t say it directly, everyone present immediately understood what happened.

Gwen was stunned for two seconds, then picked up the knife and fork and started to enjoy her dinner. She had gradually gotten used to this situation. Besides, Sophia becoming David’s woman was something that had been determined long ago, and there was nothing to be surprised or entangled about.

However, she had finally finished her work recently and ran to find David, but David was accompanying someone else. It was impossible to say that she didn’t feel unhappy in her heart.

Gwen’s action caught Laura’s attention when she poked the steak in front of her with a fork.

“Gwen, do you want me to accompany you tonight?”

“Ah?”

“David is busy, but I’m free!”

“This… no need!” Gwen suddenly felt the hair on her body stand up, and a huge sense of crisis filled her body. She felt that if she agreed, she would be in big trouble today.

“What a pity.” Laura licked her lips gently, and Gwen lowered her head to eat quietly. The dissatisfaction in her stomach had long been forgotten in the corner.

Laura smiled triumphantly, put the fish on the fork into her mouth, and continued to chat with Eva and Sylvanas about various things in Winter City, interspersed with some recent rumors.

Of course, David was also one of the topics they discussed, but they mainly talked about what David was going to do next.

As for what David was doing now… he was teaching Sofia with all his heart.

Today, David was going to give Sofia a driving lesson. Considering that Sofia had completed the theoretical knowledge, David began to guide Sofia in practical operation.

Before driving, you must carefully check the entire car, especially the front and rear lights and exhaust pipes.

Since it was a new car today, the lights were bright and intact, and the dual exhaust pipes were extremely smooth. David couldn’t wait to teach Sophia how to start the car correctly.

Because it was also a new car, the engine quickly entered the state. After David confirmed that there was no need to add additional oil, he began to instruct Sophia on how to start, shift gears, add gas, reduce speed, downshift, and turn on the turn signal correctly.

Although there were some bumps and bumps at first and she was not very skilled, Sophia soon found the feeling and drove at a relatively slow and steady speed.

Seeing that Sophia was learning quickly and her enthusiasm gradually increased, David began to teach her how to add gas, increase speed, and put the gear to the highest position, and run for two hours first.

However, after all, she was a novice on the road, and the whole person was a little nervous. It was not so easy to digest so many things at once.

In addition, she had no experience before, not only was her spirit tense, but her muscles were also very tense. After driving for less than an hour, her two feet cramped once.

If it weren’t for David’s rich experience and prompt response, Sophia’s first driving experience would have left a bad memory.

More than an hour later, Sophia was exhausted and sweaty all over. Her golden hair was soaked. Her big round eyes were half-closed, making it hard to tell whether she was about to close or shed tears at any time.

Looking at Sophia in front of him, who was not very clear-headed, but still entangled with him like an octopus, David reached out and gently stroked her hair, and his other hand repeatedly rubbed her back.

“If you are tired, just go to sleep!”

“Hmm…”

She seemed to mumble something vaguely, but David didn’t hear a word clearly. When he looked again, he found that Sophia had fallen asleep, so he honestly acted as a pillow and quietly waited for Sophia to wake up.

After a night.

Sophia, who had already woken up, did not get off David. She wanted to directly review the knowledge she had just learned yesterday, but the awkward gear shifting action and the clutch that could never find the right time fully exposed the fact that she was a rookie driver.

After a morning of fooling around, when David finished washing and dressing, the sun had already reached its highest point.

“It’s noon.”

Sophia had cleaned herself up and changed into her usual clothes, but her feet felt light when she walked, and she could only walk slowly.

“You should stay in your room and have a good rest!”

“Isn’t it necessary?”

Sophia originally thought that she was young and healthy, and David was very gentle to her. He didn’t teach her any strange knowledge. She didn’t have any serious discomfort in her body, so she should be able to move normally.

As a result, she tried to walk from the dressing room to the bedroom door, but it took her a long time to get there. She realized that she couldn’t go anywhere today, so it was better to stay in the room and rest.

At this time, Sophia suddenly understood why those “sisters” disappeared at any time and could only lie in their own rooms.

She was a little curious. Did Laura, the first person to be with David, not mind David looking for someone else because she couldn’t stand this guy alone?

Thinking of Laura, Laura ran over.

After knocking on the door to identify himself, as David opened the door, Laura’s face appeared in Sophia’s sight, looking at him with a strange smile on her face.

“Huh? You’re up.”

“…”

David was speechless. Just as he was about to say something, he was pushed out of the room by Laura: “Okay, you still have your own things to do, right? Leave Sophia to us to take care of her!”

“We?”

David turned his head and saw Gwen and Eva standing next to him. Then they walked into the room one by one. Before David could ask anything, the door was slammed shut.

Looking at the closed door, David thought for two seconds and did not forcefully say that he wanted to go in and take a look.

He had been with a few people for so long, and they had a good understanding of each other. He knew that Laura and the others were really here to take care of Sophia, and they might even give Sophia some “popular science” information, such as how many beasts and animals he had.

He didn’t mind it. After all, not everyone has the curiosity, thirst for knowledge, and psychological endurance that Laura has. Some things are acceptable only to Laura, and the others are more or less resistant.

Laura should be here to remind Sophia that she doesn’t have to endure everything silently. If she doesn’t like something, she can just say it directly. David can understand that. For such things, Laura reminding Sophia will definitely be more effective than David saying it himself.

Back in the office, David suddenly found that he had no official business to deal with today, so he left the office and went to the training room.

Because he had to go to Azeroth to attend the succession ceremony of Calia Menethil in a while, it was inconvenient for him to run around. He simply took advantage of his free time to upgrade alchemy, Cybertron body, and his weapons.

He hasn’t figured out the double-headed battle blade he brought back from the Marvel Universe! In addition, there are many alloys.

If he can integrate this material into his Cybertron body, weapons, and armor, his strength will be improved.

“By the way, can I also change the fighter’s appearance?”

Although the Tomcat fighter is very handsome, it is “too old” after all. He began to consider changing his fighter’s appearance to a VF fighter.

Should I choose VF-25 Messiah? Or YF-29 Durandal?

Originally, VF-27 Lucifer was also an option, but after handing over the data to Arcee, David did not plan to use this appearance. He did not like to use the same template as others.

“Let’s use YF-29 Durandal as the new appearance…”
