Chapter 718 Routine
Maybe it's my misunderstanding, but I feel like there are a lot less adventurers farming monsters today.
When Cagalli mentioned this matter to the female elves she usually chatted with, they shook their heads and said they knew nothing about it.
In fact, it's no wonder that most elves don't like to meddle in other people's business. They just want to run their own lives and make kind friends. As for those gossips, they don't even have the least curiosity.
Therefore, what is written in Moonlight City Daily is either about the humanistic environment, seasonal changes, or anecdotes, but there is no gossip section.
The reason why I asked Cagalli and the others to help find out why there were so few elf adventurers was not out of concern on my part, but for another purpose.
If you observe carefully, you will find that the adventurers who are absent today are all members of the Rose Legion.
All members of the Legion of Roses suddenly disappeared?
Obviously, this is impossible.
Then, there are only the following possible conjectures: First, Moonlight City was invaded by foreign enemies. As the Moonlight City Protectorate Corps, the first priority was to assemble and resist foreign enemies. Therefore, they decisively gave up on killing monsters collectively. , went to the battlefield together; secondly, the behind-the-scenes instigator of the Rose Legion is planning some big operation, which requires the participation of all members of the Rose Legion; thirdly, all members of the Rose Legion had a party last night, and they all took leave today.
Obviously, according to the regular life pattern of the elves, the third type is also impossible.
In other words, there are only the first two possibilities left: either to resist foreign enemies or to plan an action.
I think planning action is more likely.
After clearing the monsters, we rushed to the Elf Palace as usual to prepare for a discussion, but were stopped by the guards.
The guard told me: "Her Majesty the Queen has ordered that no one can enter the palace today."
After hearing this, I looked confused. I looked around and saw no one else. I pulled the guard over and whispered: "Brother, do me a favor and reveal some information. What's going on in the palace today?"
The guard hesitated for a moment, looked around, and said, "I don't know the specific situation, but since the morning, all members of the Rose Legion have been summoned into the palace."
"Oh?" I exclaimed in surprise: "This matter is not simple. All members of the Rose Legion are going to fight, right?"
"Impossible" he shook his head: "There are countless reefs in the sea around Moonlight City, unless the enemy comes by airship, but Master Dewey once issued an order that airships are not allowed to carry troops. The situation you mentioned is absolutely impossible. occurring."
"Oh~" I nodded.
This guard and I knew each other and were even familiar with each other. He was the one who received me when I first arrived in Moonlight City.
It's not that he will never cheat on me, but I know very well his facial expressions when he tells the truth and when he tells lies.
This time, what he said was true.
Since it is not a war, that means that some unknown large-scale operation is being carried out.
"What action will use all members of the Rose Guild?"
I asked Lillea on the way back.
After all, she is from the Elf clan, so she should have some understanding of this.
"I don't know." She spread her hands and said, "My time living in Moonlight City is limited. Most of my time is spent studying and training. I have no time to care about such trivial matters. You should ask Princess Analita. She may Learn more.”
Princess Analita is about to explode.
Before returning to normal, she spent the longest time sitting on the sofa eating coffee beans or eating candies.
Now back to normal, she began to walk around the house, run around, or take a sword to the yard to practice swordsmanship, cast spells, causing gravel to fly everywhere, fallen leaves on the ground, and broken branches. , thanks to the broad-mindedness of my tree house, I don’t care about her. If it were a narrow-minded person, she would have been knocked unconscious by a branch.
We returned home, and as soon as we opened the door to the yard, we heard a crash, and a large piece of leaves and broken branches covered us head-to-head.
I stared in front of me with a confused look on my face. Princess Analita was whistling, with her hands behind her back, looking left and right.
"A-na-li-ta!" I trembled all over, and the tic-tac-toe symbols instantly covered my whole forehead: "Explain it to me!"
"Oh, you are back~ I didn't even see it~" Princess Analita pretended to be surprised, while moving little by little, but always facing us, with her hands behind her back, no need to guess, behind her There must be an elf sword hidden behind it.
Remi, this little lolita, never follows rules and routines. She tilted her little head and quietly floated behind Princess Analita: "Yeah, sword!"
Princess Analita was shocked and turned around quickly, revealing the elf sword she had hidden behind her back to all of us.
The corners of my mouth twitched and I was very unhappy. I raised my chin, looked down, and glared at the already frightened princess with an intimidating expression. I sneered: "Analita, did I say that you are not allowed to enter the courtyard without permission?" To release magic?"
She was so frightened that she trembled all over, and responded to me with a flattering smile: "Well, you seem to have said that before."
"It seems, hahaha" I sneered three times: "The job of cleaning the courtyard today is yours!"
"No!"
Princess Analita: T-T
Cleaning the courtyard is almost the most tiring job in the tree house. It is usually done by three to five people, but today, it was done by Princess Analita alone.
This is a punishment and a warning.
"You can practice swordsmanship, but not magic!" I said fiercely: "Next time you let me see you using magic in the courtyard, I will punish you by cleaning the courtyard for a week!"
Princess Analita's expression was very aggrieved, and she would look at us pitifully through the door and window from time to time.
I deliberately didn't look at her and didn't let anyone else look at her. This was a reminder to her: Don't expect us to be overflowing with love. You have to take the blame for the bad things you do!
After finally cleaning the courtyard, the door of the tree house opened automatically. Princess Analita's body was covered with fallen leaves and twigs, and she looked very embarrassed.
Well, seeing how embarrassed she looks, I'll forgive her.
After washing up, Princess Analita puffed out her cheeks and glared at me angrily.
I curled my lips with a calm expression on my face.
After a few seconds of silence, I spoke first and said, "Analita, let me ask you something."
"Hmph!" Princess Analita turned her head and faced me with the back of her head.
I spread my hands and said, "Well, since you don't want to pay attention to me, I won't ask you."
With that said, I turned to Cagalli and said, "Then please ask."
"Ah?" Princess Analita looked confused: "No, according to the book, you should coax me first, then seduce me not to be angry, and finally beg me, and then I will tell you! You How can I not even persist and let others ask me!"
"Those are all routines, Analita" I shrugged: "And I never follow the routines."
