One-day holiday
With the coming of peace, the Ronglian is slowly recovering.
Elena held a ceremony to inherit the title. Due to lack of money, she rejected the suggestions of her officials to hold a grand ceremony and only held a simple small ceremony. In the new capital, Dolilan, she held a banquet to entertain cabinet members, members of the House of Representatives, and lords of the various states, announcing that she had become the 11th lord of the various states in the Honor League.
Leonard rushed back on the day of the ceremony, but left after dinner. Pads Prairie still needed him. The countries that had previously sent troops to support the Ronglian and Carlopetto Empire had not yet transferred their troops back to Pads Prairie. The defense line against the monsters still needed him and Lord Glenn to jointly guard it.
After the ceremony, Elena continued to deal with various affairs in the territory.
The enclaves in the Caropetto Empire needed to be reported to the Zirong League and complete various procedures so that they could become her territory in a legitimate manner.
After completing the formalities, Elena will also build a teleportation array in the new enclave to facilitate future management.
There was also the adjustment of the industrial structure within the territory, the adjustment of the farmland planting plan, and the arrangement of settlement for the refugees who had completed the road construction work. If you didn't count, you wouldn't know how many refugees there were. Once you counted, you would realize that there were so many refugees. She got so much labor for free.
In addition to affairs within the territory, Elena also has to go to the royal capital of Dolilan from time to time to attend meetings, participate in political affairs, and fulfill her responsibilities as the lord of a branch state.
The higher the title, the greater the responsibility and the more things to do.
Elena is busy and has a full work schedule.
A month passed.
Elena was so busy that she was almost exhausted. It wasn't that she was physically tired. She was now a high-level mage and her body wouldn't be tired even if she worked 24 hours a day. She was just tired mentally and mentally. She just wanted to take a break and relax her mind.
It is better to do it today than to wait for a day. After getting up that day, Elena felt really unmotivated, so she decided to take a day off and go to Padres Meadows to see Leonard.
Once again coming to the vast Pads grassland, Elena breathed in the fresh air with the fragrance of grass, and her mood instantly soared to the sky.
Elena hummed a tune and ran in the direction of the sensing direction.
I wonder what Leonard is doing right now. Is he majestically patrolling the grasslands? Or perhaps swinging his sword to slay invading monsters? Or perhaps he's lying on the ground with his legs crossed, eating meat?
Elena thought as she approached quickly.
Then she saw Leonard walking on the grassland with a girl.
A feeling of betrayal washed over me.
Grass, a kind of plant.
Elena stared at Leonard with an unfriendly look.
As a knight demigod, Leonard's perception was so sharp that he turned his head almost the first second Elena stared at him.
"Elena." Leonard rushed over like a husky, stretched out his long arms, and hugged her slender waist.
Elena, who was hugged by Lenha, raised her chin towards the girl and smiled with a sense of superiority of a winner.
The girl looked over here blankly.
"Who is she?" Elena just finished asking, then she remembered, "Oh, I seem to have seen her before. Is she the goddaughter of Archbishop Colin?"
Leonard rubbed his chin against the top of Elena's hair, buried his nose in her hair and took a deep breath before responding to her: "Yes, you remember right, it's her. Her name is Bella. She came to Padres Meadows some time ago. She is weak and clingy. It's so annoying."
Weak and clingy?
Elena's gaze deepened.
She was definitely weak. She could see that Bella was only a beginner mage. Although Bella had good talent to reach the beginner mage level at her age, she was no match for her. Coming to Pads Prairie with such a weak level was really a challenge to her limits.
As for being clingy? Is she here to steal men?
"How did she pester you?" Elena asked coldly.
Leonard answered obediently, "When she first came, she said she wanted to hone herself in actual combat. I took her to the grasslands a few times because Archbishop Colin had taught me before, but she's nowhere near as good as you. She's always terrified, crying and screaming, and always asking me to rescue her. Even so, she still has no self-awareness. She'll come to me again next time, just like today. But I didn't agree. I don't have that much time to play games with her."
Thinking of Leonard's practical teaching in the past, where he threw people into the Warcraft circle and ran to the periphery to command, Elena smiled and felt much happier.
This kind of practical teaching is indeed not something that ordinary people can bear.
Elena patted Leonard's arm and asked him to let her go.
Leonard reluctantly let go of his hand on her waist, then turned around and took her hand.
Elena glanced at him.
Leonard grinned, but held her hand tighter.
The two walked towards Bella hand in hand.
Bella's expression changed again and again, and finally became expressionless and indifferent.
Elena didn't greet Bella proactively. She waited for Leonard to express his opinion.
Leonard did not disappoint her. He said to Bella, "Bella, this is Elena, my girlfriend. You met last time."
Bella bowed slightly to Elena: "Yes, Miss Elena, hello."
Elena maintained her graceful smile: "Hello, Miss Bella."
Leonard continued, "Bella, Elena and I haven't seen each other for a long time. I want to accompany her. We'll talk next time we meet."
This was clearly an attempt to drive her away, so Bella forced herself to maintain a dignified expression and said goodbye.
Elena looked at Bella's departing back and opened the protective shield.
"Does she like you?" Elena asked bluntly.
Leonard quickly stated: "I don't know if she is, but I'm definitely not. I have no interest in other women. I just want to look at you."
Elena raised her eyebrows, not saying whether she believed it or not, just looking at him.
Leonard was afraid she wouldn't believe him, so he promised her, "I will definitely avoid her from now on and make sure she can't find me. Believe me, I swear I will never let her find me for a hundred years."
Leonard was about to swear an oath.
Elena raised her hand to stop him: "No need, you have already signed a loyalty agreement. If you fall in love with someone else, you will be punished by aging 50 years."
Her eyes swept over Leonard: "You haven't even reached 50 yet."
If Leonard violates the loyalty agreement, he will be dead.
Hearing Elena say this, Leonard was not guilty or nervous, but smiled easily: "Yes, so I won't break the contract, and you won't either, right?"
Elena didn't respond and just gave him a snap of the fingers.
Leonard chuckled.
"Why are you here today? Do you have something to talk to me about?" Leonard tactfully changed the subject.
Mentioning this, Elena felt tired, she looked up at the sky: “It’s okay, I’m just tired from being busy, so I came here to relax and take a day off.”
Leonard's eyes lit up: "One day? Great, let's go kill the monster together."
Killing monsters?
Elena's mouth twitched: "My girlfriend came all the way to see you, and you actually want your lovely girlfriend to kill monsters?"
Isn't this the same as a long-distance relationship where the girlfriend travels thousands of miles to see her boyfriend, only for him to ask her to play games online with him? Especially if the game she plays is not her favorite?
People doing things?
Leonard put his arm around her shoulders and said, "I feel like your mental strength has improved again. It's rare for you to come here, so you should take this opportunity to improve it a little more. Elena, you really should come to Pads Prairie more often. If you come a few more times, you'll be able to become a great wizard soon."
That being said, it was true. Elena had thought about coming to Pads Prairie more often and becoming a demigod sooner, but she was delayed by the sudden war.
So Elena, led by Leonard, once again went deep into the Paddes Prairie.
Warcraft, all kinds of strange-looking monsters.
Fight, fight together happily.
Elena, who had not fought for a long time, once again experienced the joy of fighting, and her tired mood was vented and restored.
It feels so good.
It turns out that playing games is not as exciting as actual combat.
After sleeping on the grass for a while, Elena woke up to a strong fragrance. As soon as she opened her eyes, a piece of roasted meat appeared in front of her.
"It's ready, get up and eat." Leonard said.
Elena took the barbecue and sat up, and Leonard handed over the water bag.
"Are you thirsty? Drink some water."
Elena opened the water bag and took two sips to relieve the thirst she had just woken up from. After drinking, her eyes fell on the barbecue in her hand: "What kind of meat is this?"
"Lulumon meat tastes like beef and is pretty good," said Leonard.
Lulumon was one of the magical beasts they had just killed. It was a small beast, but highly poisonous.
Elena raised her eyebrows and took a small bite with trust in Leonard.
Well, it tastes really good.
Elena started eating with peace of mind.
Seeing Elena eating, Leonard also took a bite of the barbecue in his hand.
"Are we going to continue killing monsters later?" Elena asked.
Leonard raised his hand and pointed in a direction: "Let's go there later. There are fewer monsters there, but there is a special carnivorous flower. Although it eats meat, it is still very beautiful when it blooms."
Elena sighed and frowned: "No, it's disgusting just thinking about it. Are there a lot of bones around this kind of flower?"
Whether in games or on TV or in movies, wherever there is this kind of carnivorous flower, there must be a lot of disgusting bones and rotten mud around it. Elena doesn't want to experience it herself.
Leonard expressed his confusion: "What's wrong with bones? You eat meat and don't spit out bones?"
Elena raised her hand and hit him: "Am I the same as the carnivorous flower?"
Leonard opened his mouth, but in the end, it was the knight's danger alert instinct that saved him: "No, it's different. You are beautiful, and you can spit out bones beautifully."
Elena rewarded him with another snap of her fingers.
"If you can't speak, just shut up." Humph!
In the end, Leonard went to pick a carnivorous flower himself.
The carnivorous flower has no branches or leaves, just a single flower on the stem. The shape of the flower looks a bit like a lotus, but its color is emerald green. From a distance, it looks like a flower carved from jade.
I can’t believe that such a beautiful flower is carnivorous.
Elena nodded: "Okay, you can throw it away."
"Don't throw it away! You can refine it into powder and sprinkle it on your cattle farm. With its scent, mosquitoes and flies will definitely be away." Leonard casually cast a freezing spell on the carnivorous flower. "Put it in your ring."
It turns out it also has the effect of repelling mosquitoes.
Because of its efficacy, Elena accepted the carnivorous flower.
Wait, Elena realized it only after she put the carnivorous flower into the space ring. She came all the way to see her boyfriend, but her boyfriend gave her a carnivorous flower. How could she not be angry?
Elena's gaze shifted to Leonard's face.
Could it be that she has been "contaminated" by him, with only pragmatism in her mind and no romantic cells left?
Leonard didn't understand why his girlfriend suddenly looked at him like that and tilted his head.
Elena closed her eyes instantly.
Ah, she is blind. Why is Leonard becoming more and more like a Husky? How could she fall for a boyfriend like this?
After returning from Padres Meadows, Elena received a large wave of orders.
Previously, all the industries under Elena's name, especially magic potions and magic scrolls, were supplied to her own country. Caravans from other countries were unable to buy any goods. The market had been looking forward to Elena resuming supply. Now that the peace talks have been successful and the war is over, these caravans that have been waiting for a long time are quickly flocking to the Field territory.
Place an order, place an order, and place additional orders.
Then the caravan that came to place an order accidentally discovered a new potion. The Bell Orchid Potion Shop actually had a new kind of magic potion that they had never seen before. They asked the clerk in the store, and the clerk said that this was a potion specially used to increase the fertility of farmland, which could increase grain production.
Out of trust in Miss Marquis Field's pharmaceutical skills, these caravans bought a batch of new potions and took them back. After trying them out, they found that the effect was surprisingly good. After just a few days of use, the crops grew noticeably faster and produced more ears of grain. This potion became a hit overnight.
When Elena came back, there were dozens of official letters on her desk. They were all official letters from lords from all over the world, placing orders directly with her for magic potions for weight gain.
Elena calculated the total and her mind was confused.
How long will she have to work overtime with so many orders?
Elena, who didn't want to work overtime, decisively asked her three senior brothers and Teacher Leopold to help.
"If you want us to help you, you have to reveal the formula to us. Have you really decided?" Leopold asked lazily.
Elena nodded: "Not only will I announce the formula to you, but I will also provide you with a commission. For every bottle of potion you produce, you will get 30% of the profit."
Leopold perked up. "Are you serious?"
After saying that, he felt uneasy again and asked two more questions: "Can you decide? Do you want to ask Leonard?"
"Don't worry, I can make the decision on this matter. Leonard won't object." Elena waved her hand. "But you have to keep the formula a secret for me and don't disclose it to anyone."
Elena took out a scroll and began writing on it: "If you agree, please sign below."
Leopold was the first to sign, followed by Ansel and others.
With the help of the four great wizards, magic potions were supplied at full capacity.
Elena also breathed a sigh of relief and had time to take care of orders from other industries.
After a busy day, the industrial orders were finally sorted out, and the knights who were previously sent to the front line for support also returned.
The war had ended for some time, and the armies sent by other territories had already returned one after another. Only the knights of the Field Territory returned last. Because Elena did not urge them, and she had no use for the knights anyway, the military naturally used this team for a while longer.
Elena was very happy when she received the news of her return in advance and decided to hold a grand triumphal ceremony.
These returning heroes deserve a glorious ceremony.
Elena is quite stingy with herself and is reluctant to hold a grand ceremony to inherit the title, but she is very generous to these heroes who have fought and died on the battlefield. However, it is also because she has some money recently, otherwise she could not afford it.
Bang, bang, the cannon exploded.
The sound of horse hooves galloped into the town of Fussen.
The returning knights held their heads high.
Flowers, ribbons, handkerchiefs, and people crowded on both sides of the road, cheering and cheering.
At the end of the road, on a high platform, the lofty lord, the Marquis of Field, looked at them with a smile.
"Cheers to you, brave warriors, and welcome back triumphantly." Elena raised her glass.
The knights in their shining armor could hardly suppress the heroic spirit in their hearts. They dismounted in unison, raised their glasses together, and shouted to the sky.
"Salute you, may you shine forever on this land like the sun. We will always follow you and be loyal to you."
After the toast, Elena personally awarded them medals of honor.
The pure silver medals worn on the knights' chests are shiny and heavy, full of glory and value.
The knights looked at the medals on their chests with fiery eyes and their chests puffed out higher.
