Chapter 197 I'm leaving
In fact, Ymir didn't think it was embarrassing to live in the same room with Ryan.
After all, they had spent many days together in the wilderness.
But this is not the wasteland, but the Black Dragon City.
There are only a few streets in the territory now.
If something new happened, it would spread throughout the territory in a few minutes. What would others think if two women and one man stayed in the same room without a guest room?
Ymir was initially hesitant.
But then I thought, since the “rumors” are already like that, what could be worse?
Moreover, although she may have come for the purpose of maintaining harmony in the territory before, now she feels that she really wants to become friends with Wu Duo, the kind-hearted Cole girl.
…
In the morning, Udo and Ren walked Ymir out of the shed.
The Coleman people also started their busy day. Everyone looked at Ryan and the other two and greeted them warmly, like they were family.
"Elder Wu Duo, Doctor Ryan, good morning..."
"Morning, Princess..."
Ymir clearly felt that the Colemans' eyes towards her became friendlier, especially when they saw the bone-tooth bracelet on her fair wrist, which made her feel even more intimate.
Although she could not understand Coleman's language, she could see it, and the Coleman warriors also greeted her.
Ymir responded with a smile, feeling very happy.
She said to Ryan and Udo, "Okay, no need to see me off. Ryan, I'm going to go back and change my clothes. We'll inspect the territory together later. After all, you belong to the city lord..."
"Oh well."
Ryan nodded.
He suddenly remembered something, took out the dictionary he had translated, and said, "These are some things I sorted out. Take them and see what you can do with them."
Ymir didn't look at what was inside and took it, "Okay."
Udo also smiled and said, "Your Highness Ymir, come often when you are free... I will make barbecue for you."
"OK."
Ymir smiled and said, "But I would also like to invite you, Ryan, the High Priest of Marfa, and the elders to dinner tonight. I will have my subordinates deliver the invitation later..."
Wu Duo didn't understand what the invitation meant, but she understood that Ymir wanted to treat her to a meal, so she readily agreed: "Okay."
This extraordinary world is actually quite similar to the human relationships in the previous life. The best way to maintain interpersonal relationships is to eat.
If one meal isn’t enough, have another.
…
Ymir originally wanted to return to her residence quietly, but she didn't know what she thought of, and her slightly frowned brows relaxed. Then she walked calmly on the street and walked back to the apartment with confidence.
The current territory gave her a sense of ease where she could completely let down her guard. This was something she had never experienced in the imperial capital or anywhere else. In those places, she had to protect herself; but here, she could face everything calmly.
The craftsmen had already started their shift change early in the morning. When they saw their eldest princess, they naturally greeted her warmly.
"Good morning, Your Highness ..."
"Good morning, everyone..."
She did not hide her whereabouts, so naturally someone saw her coming out of the Coleman tribe's hut.
Then, before long, this gossip had spread throughout the territory.
However, Ymir didn't seem to think there was anything wrong with it.
Everyone is spreading rumors with good intentions.
Back in the makeshift apartment, the maid helped her change out of her dress, and she then remembered the booklet that Ryan had handed to her.
I opened it and saw the densely packed text on it, and immediately understood what it was.
"this……"
A hint of surprise immediately appeared on that beautiful face, and then in the blink of an eye it changed into an expression of expectedness.
Ymir closed the booklet, and there was no telling what she was thinking about. A smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, as beautiful as a first blooming ice lotus, or as if spring had come to the world.
…
The city lord Ryan does not have any specific duties and he likes to have a leisurely life.
And Wuduo also had to go to the Great Shaman Ceremony of Mafa to learn the lessons that the elders should learn, so he left early in the morning.
He also planned to help out in his teacher Irubek's laboratory and put medical studies back on the agenda.
But just when Ryan was about to go out, the charming Lady Canossa came to his door.
"Hey...Mrs. Canossa, why are you here?"
"You don't want to invite me to sit in the house?"
"Oh! Please come in..."
Canossa is not shy about anything.
After entering the house, she looked at the two beds in the shed and said with a smile, "I heard a rumor going around in the territory early in the morning that the Princess had a wonderful night with the handsome city lord last night. You are really capable..."
Ryan knew she was joking, and that such things would only get worse. He didn't explain much, and asked curiously, "Mrs. Canossa, why do I feel like you've been coming and going without a trace lately..."
"I'm busy, okay."
Canossa rolled his eyes at him and sat lazily beside him.
But because the bed was very low, she had to curl up her legs slightly, and her long, beautiful legs were exposed from the edge of the high-slit cheongsam, and the white sight was dazzling.
She didn't seem to mind Ryan's gaze at all. She rubbed her legs and muttered, "I've been walking around the camp for most of the night. My legs are sore."
Hearing this, Ryan asked in confusion: "Ah... Madam, why are you wandering around the camp so late at night instead of sleeping?"
It turned out that there was no one to be seen, and he had actually wandered around the camp in the middle of the night.
"It's all for your territory. "
Canossa said coquettishly, and then said unhappily: "Now I am the only one in the Chamber of Commerce in the territory. I need to do everything myself. What materials are needed, how many are needed, who to communicate with, how to transport and hand over... I have to estimate the numbers in my mind, otherwise the materials will not arrive in time, and the construction period of your territory will be delayed."
As she spoke, she glared at Ryan and did not forget to tease him: "Do you think you can sleep comfortably in the land of gentleness until dawn like you?"
Listening to the previous few sentences, Ryan secretly admired the professionalism of this business tycoon.
But when he heard the last sentence, his expression suddenly became resentful.
What a paradise on earth... Two women slept in the bed, and I, the dignified city lord, sat cross-legged in meditation all night.
Canossa seemed to have something to do, so she didn't plan to tease him. She skipped the topic and continued, "I've heard that the princess has great talent in governing the country. Seeing her today, I can see that she is indeed very . But... I didn't expect that she wouldn't mind sharing the same room with you."
There was praise and a hint of joking in his words. Rumors are just rumors, but if they are confirmed, it's a different story.
Ryan shrugged without comment.
Ymir's domestic affairs skills were indeed outstanding. Everyone could guess why she came to visit yesterday. But whether in public or in private, she did an impeccable job and performed perfectly.
As Canossa spoke, he rubbed his big white legs and said softly, "Oh, my legs are so sore. Dr. Ryan, your 'Gang Thread' feels very comfortable to use. Can you help me relax my muscles?"
This made Ryan unconsciously look over there: white, with dark flower cloud pattern lace edge.
Since this lady came out of the temple, she has become less and less guarded and more and more rude to me.
If they were not defeated, the Coleman men's methods would be very good...
Forget it, there is no if, I just can’t win.
If this premise is not true, no wrong ideas will work.
Ryan rolled his eyes and simply ignored her words.
Although he knew that what Canossa said was true. This was her secret method of gathering energy while practicing [Mystery of Power]. Normally, she was just an ordinary noble lady with a delicate body, and she was not pretending to be delicate.
But don't be fooled.
"Tsk~ boring. Since you won't give me a massage, I'll get down to business..."
Seeing that Ryan was unmoved, Canossa pouted and said something in anger.
Obviously, she came here for something real today.
At this moment, the smile on Canossa's face suddenly faded, and he said in a slightly bored tone: "I came here to tell you that I'm leaving. I came to say goodbye to you."
When Ryan heard this, he frowned, thinking something had happened, and asked, "Ah? What happened?"
"Nothing much. Normal schedule."
Kanosa explained: "The Chamber of Commerce is being suppressed by the two empires now, so there must be a lot of troubles waiting for me to deal with. Moreover, your Black Dragon City is in urgent need of a large amount of resources for construction. I have to arrange for a caravan to come here as soon as possible. Nothing can be delayed..."
“Oh, I see…”
When Ryan heard this, he suddenly realized that she had been wandering around the territory these past two days, and she was really focusing on her work.
And considering the few months he was missing, Canossa has indeed been away from the Black Gold Chamber of Commerce for a long time.
"I'll tell Ymir later, and she'll arrange for someone to escort you."
After thinking about it, he continued, "The route that crosses the Alcoron Mountains to the Theed Empire has been detected before. Apart from some low-level zombies and magical beasts, there is not much danger."
If it were in the past, he might have worried about the safety of this delicate lady on the long journey.
But now that he knew she was a legendary expert, he only responded with polite words.
With her strength, if she really wants to go somewhere, she can go anywhere in the world.
Sending someone to escort them is more of a formality.
"Um."
Canossa nodded. She didn't want others to know her strength unless it was necessary.
As she spoke, she put her legs together and tried to stand up. The pair of long white legs were also covered by the hem of the cheongsam, and Lei lost the chance to see them.
The tight-fitting cheongsam was difficult to sit up, so Ryan stepped forward gentlemanly, stretched out his hand, and wanted to help her stand up from the low bed.
Canossa glanced at him, then naturally took his hand and stood up, saying in a charming tone: "What a pity... We were originally supposed to be apart for several months. I gave you the opportunity to be close to me, but you couldn't grasp it..."
This woman is of course seductive to the core. Even though you know her words might be teasing, you can't help but hope that she is not joking.
Ryan rubbed his brows, put aside his distracted thoughts, and asked, "Mrs. Canossa, when will you come again?"
Canossa responded: "The fastest time would be three to five months, and it's hard to say if it would be slower. If the Chamber of Commerce has too many things to do, it might take a year or two."
Ryan: “Oh.”
Canossa: "Practice well. I am still waiting for you to reach the 'Godly Realm'..."
Ryan: “…”
The two chatted a few words before getting ready to go out.
At this moment, suddenly, urgent alarms sounded in the city.
"Warning! C-class monsters are attacking the city!"
"Warning! C-class monsters are attacking the city!"
"There's a flying dragon, everyone be careful!"
“…”
When Ryan heard this, he rushed out the door.
C-level monster sieges are small-scale magic sieges, which are not a big problem for the high walls of Black Dragon City. But this time, it is different. Because the attack comes from the sky!
