Chapter 427: What Derrick Sees
The dusk is dim and the setting sun is like blood.
This was an ordinary sight for ordinary people in the Northern Continent, but it was so shocking in Derrick's eyes.
Even though he had already known what the outside world looked like through the "projector", the images were just images after all, and could not be compared with the scenery he was seeing with his own eyes now.
It went on like this for a while, until the sky darkened and thousands of lights in Beldan City were lit, Derrick reluctantly looked back and said with some embarrassment: "'Ta, sir, I kept you waiting for a long time... ...."
”Here, just call me Abner, or Mr. Blaine. Abner corrected his title, then said with a smile, "Dinner is ready. It's a rare time for you to come here, so you have to taste our food." "
"Dinner? No need to hold a ceremony first?" Derrick said hesitantly.
"There is no need to be so anxious. After dinner, I will arrange for someone to take you around my territory and buy some souvenirs to prove to your chief that the world here is real."
"In addition, I will take you to Backlund tomorrow. Miss Justice is also looking forward to meeting you." Abner said as he "teleported" Derrick into the living room of his mansion, then rang the bell to call the head maid "Nightingale", and ordered him: "This gentleman is my important guest, you Arrange for some maids to take him to wash up and change clothes. "
Little "Sun" is wearing clothes made of monster fur. Although it is strong, durable and tough, and very convenient for fighting, its style is incompatible with Loen's side, and because it is made of things from monsters, it has a peculiar smell. Very heavy and really not suitable for continued wearing.
Little "Sun" didn't really understand Abner's arrangement, but out of trust in Mr. "Tower", he followed several witches into the guest room in confusion.
Soon the young man's intermittent panic voice came:
"Wait...I'll take this off myself...
"No need to help...Thank you...Please go out for a moment, I will use this...this, the faucet..."
"Ah, I can wear this dress too, no need for help..."
In response, Abner smiled and shook his head. Then he took a bath and changed clothes under the service of the maid, and then returned to the "palace" and changed his body.
At this time, "Sun" Derrick, who was wearing a crew-neck shirt, a brown jacket, and wide-leg pants, moved his hands and feet and ran out of the guest room as if he was running away. He said to Abner with a grimace:
"'Ta, sir, the ladies in your family are too...too..."
He was so "too" for a long time that he couldn't find a suitable adjective, and his face turned red from holding back his words.
"Okay, I'll let them take care of you, just to make it easier for you to adapt to life here... After all, even those witches can handle it with ease, so you don't have to worry about communicating with other people. "
While Abner was talking, he took a look at "The Sun" and felt that the child's dress was okay and would not attract any attention. After all, he was not an Extraordinary of the "Warrior" path, and his height was not as high as other people in Silver City. It is often over 2.34 meters tall. Although it is still very high, it is still within the range that ordinary people can tolerate without feeling scared.
"Witch..." Derrick was slightly stunned and said to himself in surprise, "Those ladies just now were all witches? No wonder..."
Abner glanced at Derrick with interest, but without asking why he was "no wonder", he took him directly to the dining room of the mansion.
At this time, Xio's mother and brother had already had dinner and returned to their room. Apart from the maid group, the only ones still waiting here were Xio and Forsi.
", Sun,?" Forsi, who was sitting on one side of the dining table, saw Derrick coming in, his eyes lit up and he greeted with a smile.
And Xio nodded to it.
Derrick was a little confused at first, but he quickly recognized the identities of the two ladies through the details of their faces and hair:
Miss "Magician" and Miss "Judgement"!
Derrick
He became calm and no longer confused and worried. After all, together with Mr. "Tower" and himself, there were currently four members of the Tarot Society gathered here, and he suddenly found a sense of familiarity.
It’s just that Miss Judgment’s height in real life is different from that in the Tarot Society... Is this a disguise?
Derrick did not dare to ask. After greeting the two ladies and telling them their names, he was attracted by the aroma of the food that was being served one after another.
To be honest, the level of the cooks in Abner's mansion is average and cannot be compared with the "Gourmet Blessed" raised by Klein. They only represent the standard of Loen's cuisine.
But even so, Derrick couldn't stop eating, and he stuffed at least three people's food into his stomach like a whirlwind.
Forsi looked at him in surprise. He lowered his head and took a bite of the steak on his plate. He found that there was no change from before and couldn't help but ask: "Do you think this...does it taste good?"
"It's very delicious...even better than the canned wolf fish that Miss Temperance once gave us!" Derrick said vaguely.
Better than "canned wolf fish"... I think this is the biggest insult to chef Old Baker! After Fors became a "traveler", he began to travel around and stayed on the sea, so it was natural for him to Understand the deterrent power of "canned wolf fish".
After licking up the last bit of soup, Derrick's determination to bring out the residents of Silver City became stronger than ever before - he must bring such a happy life to everyone.
"Ta, no, Blaine Niu Niu, please take me to complete the promotion in pure darkness. I feel that I am in very good condition now!" Derrick sincerely requested after putting down the bowl.
"Aren't you going to take a look around my territory first? Beldan has been very busy recently due to the activities, and all kinds of products are gathered here. You may be able to buy a lot of good things. Abner suggested with a smile.
Derrick shook his head and said firmly: "It's better to complete the promotion first, otherwise I won't be at ease anyway... I always feel like I'm having a sweet dream." "
"That's okay..." Abner touched his chin and continued, "Wait while I pick up something." "
After saying that, he stretched out his hand to draw a circle surrounded by golden flames and got into it.
After a moment, Abner's figure came out of the ring of fire again, but with an extra card in his hand.
Derrick could vaguely see a statue of a steel giant painted on the surface of the card.
"Okay, let's go." Abner first nodded to Xio and Forsi, then drew a golden circle of fire again and led Derrick into it.
The next moment they came to the interior of a church, the surroundings were quiet and solemn, and there was the fragrance of flowers and plants.
Derrick looked around, and finally set his sights on an illusory and dark door.
Feeling the "terrible" in it, Derrick swallowed and asked nervously:
"Mr. Blaine...what is this place?"
Abner glanced at him, raised the corners of his mouth, and replied:
"This is the headquarters of the Church of Dark Night, the entrance to the Kingdom of Darkness...
"Speaking of an environment that is both safe and pure darkness, what can be compared to the divine kingdom of the goddess of the night?"
