Chapter 108 I was wrong. I will dare to do it again next time.
In the pub, Zhang Da also poured Uncle Goodman a glass of wine to calm him down and told him what had happened.
Rui Mengmeng was busy cleaning up the messy table left behind by the cups and plates before she left.
Altria went to the small courtyard to sort out what she had learned from swordsmanship today.
After listening to Zhang Da talking for a while, Tom impatiently ran to look through the refrigerator. He was unhappy because his master always skipped his fight when telling people about the tavern.
"That's about it. He left after the competition and didn't make things difficult for us." Zhang Da also concluded. Even when he wanted to leave, it was our Tom who made things difficult for him.
The young man I helped actually recruited guards who could fight against the Seven Warlords of the Sea. Uncle Goodman chose to drink a glass of wine to calm down: "Ton ton ton ha~ It's incredible, they are the Seven Warlords of the Sea, it reminds me of my youth..."
"Could you have fought against the Seven Warlords of the Sea when you were young?" Zhang Da also refilled his glass with a smile, ready to hear what he was going to brag about next.
Goodman rolled his eyes at him and said, "When I was young, I would have dared to go and see such excitement!"
"Pfft~" Zhang Da also laughed out loud, and the uncle's tone was surprisingly quite proud.
"What are you laughing at? The guests you had today were so timid that they didn't dare to watch the fun and couldn't even brag well. I thought the Seven Warlords of the Sea were here to pick a fight with you." Goodman said dissatisfiedly.
"Thank you, uncle." Zhang Da could also hear the worry in his words. He didn't expect that there would be someone who cared about him even though he was in a different world.
Goodman waved his hand: "Why thank me? I didn't help you. Come to my house more often when you have time. Molly is also worried about you."
"Okay." Zhang Da also nodded.
"Let's go. I have to go back and teach those guys the art of speaking. What's that called? Flying slash, right? Haha, I can brag about this move for a year!" Goodman left happily.
"That uncle seems to be a really nice person." Rui Mengmeng said.
"Yes, I have received a lot of care from their family." Zhang Da also agreed, "Let's go and see how Altria's training is going."
Zhang Da also walked into the yard and poked his head back: "Tom, remember to clean up the mess in the refrigerator!"
Tom shrank his neck, leaned against the closed refrigerator door and nodded quickly. Behind the door was a mess of vegetables and fruits, and there were two broken eggs in the upper compartment.
Zhang Da didn't notice Tom's guilty look. After he left, Tom wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and began to tidy up the refrigerator in a hurry.
…
Altria closed her eyes and held the hilt of the sword with both hands. She was holding the ordinary knight sword that Zhang Daye gave to Rui Mengmeng. In front of her was a small dumbbell that Zhang Daye used for exercise.
Zhang Daye and Rui Mengmeng didn't say anything and just watched quietly.
At a certain moment, Altria opened her eyes and swung the sword in her hand. The sword collided with the iron dumbbell without making a sound, but instead cut the dumbbell in half like cutting vegetables.
Zhang Da could also feel that there was no magic power on the sword just now, and the power used by Altria was not particularly great.
Altria said to herself, "I see. Even solid steel has countless flaws. If you use the right method to cut it, it can be easily cut without magic power."
"Huh? Don't all things breathe or something?" Zhang Da asked curiously.
"It may be that everyone's understanding is slightly different. Maybe what I see as a flaw may be seen as breathing by others, or perhaps something else. In the final analysis, it is something that can only be achieved with a certain level of understanding of swordsmanship."
Altria explained and began to try how to use the Flying Slash.
Zhang Da was also confused. This thing was too mysterious. He felt that at this stage he should exercise well and enhance his physical fitness and magic power. This would help him improve faster.
At night, the pub was packed. Not only were extra seats added to every table, but there were also a few people standing and drinking without wearing long shirts.
"I was wondering why all of you are here today?" Zhang Da also greeted the familiar faces.
"Of course, it's to see if you, little boss, have been hacked to death by that guy!"
"Yes, yes, young man, what is the result?" A group of people looked at him eagerly.
"You guys are really good at talking." Zhang Da said a little proudly, "I'm sorry to disappoint you. Although we didn't win, no one was injured."
"That's awesome! Cheers to the boss for not being killed by the Seven Warlords of the Sea!"
"cheers!"
Zhang Da also rolled his eyes: "Thank you!"
"Cheers to Altria-chan!"
"Here's to Tom's piano!"
Zhang Da didn't want to pay any attention to them. He felt that these people were just looking for a random excuse to toast, and the gossip scene turned into a banquet for dozens of people.
But why did Tom run to play the piano so obediently today?
Zhang Da also felt that there must be something wrong. He didn't know whether someone gave too much bribe today or Tom broke something.
…
The next day, the family replaced the refrigerator.
The reason is that Tom cleaned the refrigerator inside and out at a super fast speed yesterday, and put the ingredients in order, which in itself is not a problem.
But after doing all this, when he was closing the refrigerator door, he accidentally got his tail caught in the refrigerator. The pain was so severe that Tom jumped three meters high, carrying the refrigerator with him.
Fearing that he would be discovered, Tom pinched his mouth to endure the pain, and leapt down from mid-air , landing before the refrigerator and catching it.
Unfortunately, this refrigerator is not the one in Tom's house, and it cannot withstand the damage as well. Not only are the ingredients inside in a mess, but the electrical wires are also pulled apart.
After Tom plugged it back in, the refrigerator shorted out somewhere and burned out.
Tom's solution was to clean it thoroughly again and then pretend nothing had happened.
But there was no way to hide such a thing. Rui Mengmeng discovered it immediately when she was getting the ingredients in the morning.
After knowing the truth, Zhang Da didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "It's broken, so what? I won't beat you up. If you told me earlier, we could have replaced it earlier to avoid wasting so much food."
Tom stood with his hands behind his back and a flattering smile on his face. This was Tom's standard posture for admitting his mistakes.
It's just that he is also a typical example of "I know I was wrong, but I'll do it again next time", and he always repeats the mistakes he made intentionally or unintentionally.
"Tatsuya, it seems like something big has happened." Altria showed the newspaper in her hand to Zhang Tatsuya.
"The ship carrying the Celestial Dragon Donquixote Musgard Saint has lost contact. A generous reward will be given to anyone who provides clues."
Attached to it was a picture of a green-haired celestial being and the ship he was riding on.
"I remember Don Quixote is the name of a pirate group, right?" asked Altria.
"Yes, Doflamingo's pirate group is also called the Donquixote Family. They were once Celestial Dragons. One day, his father didn't want to be a scum like the Celestial Dragons anymore, so he took his family away from the Holy Land of Marijoa and wanted to become ordinary people.
However, ordinary people, perhaps because they had suffered from the oppression of the Celestial Kings or had witnessed the atrocities of the Celestial Dragons, did not accept them, and when they lost their privileges, they vented their resentment on their family.
The result was quite tragic. Later, Doflamingo killed his father and took his head to Marijoa hoping to regain his identity as a Celestial Dragon, but failed. Then he became a big pirate who did all kinds of evil and wanted to destroy this "world belonging to the Celestial Dragons."
Rui Mengmeng was shocked by how evil this person was: "How cruel, he actually killed his own father..."
Zhang Da also continued, "This Musgarud is probably the descendant of the same king among the 'Twenty Kings'. His disappearance should have no impact on us. No, that's not right. Maybe someone will come to Shampoo to search and interrogate him. Anyway, we will just say we don't know and haven't seen him."
Zhang Da also estimated that Musgard should be on Fishman Island now, and was rescued by Princess Otohime. He then turned over a new leaf and never raised slaves again. Later, he protected Shirahoshi during the World Conference. He is a rare talent among the Celestial Dragons.
