Chapter 576 Mint Candy!
In the kitchen, Eivor, holding a teacup, looked helpless.
Was he sold out?
He had originally planned to get to know his first customer, who was also the only one who really liked his food, in a more formal way.
But since he was named by Acker, he naturally couldn't ignore it.
'It's just...
It's a pity.
It's so hard to meet such a good customer. '
With a faint regret in his heart, Eivor tidied his clothes and came out. After putting the tea with sugar on the table, he looked at Arthur and smiled on his fat face.
"Good evening, Sir Arthur Kratos."
"Good evening, Eivor - although I have said it more than once, your food is really fresh in my memory."
Facing Eivor's greeting, Arthur responded with a smile.
"Hahaha, no way!
Please rest assured, I will take care of Ms. Caesar's safety!
I swear by the name of 'Lord of Shadow'!"
Eivor laughed heartily and began to take on a lot of responsibilities.
Great!
Comfortable!
It feels so good to be recognized and praised after being repeatedly rejected or even despised.
And, most importantly, I don't have to endure it anymore.
You know, after hearing the praise in the old city, Eivor felt a little regretful that he couldn't hear Arthur's praise in person, but now?
It doesn't exist anymore.
Even the regret he just felt is gone.
But Arthur had expected Eivor's laughter.
Or...
When Eivor came back with Acker, Arthur had some guesses.
Eivor should be worried about Acker.
But Eivor would never refuse praise for his craftsmanship.
In fact, it's easy to confirm this.
Arthur just moved his mouth.
Then, just when we were in the old town, we could clearly hear the subtle changes in the other party's breathing.
Then, now we have received the other party's promise.
How should I put it?
It is indeed a buy one get one free deal, cheap and affordable?
Arthur thought so in his heart, with a gentle smile on his face -
"Can I give you a suggestion for your food?"
"Of course, you say!"
Eivor immediately became serious.
For cooking, this retired assassin is serious.
"Your food is a dream test for real warriors, but for ordinary people, the purity is too high, and they can't understand the beauty at all.
Most importantly, they waste this kind of food.
So, I hope you can lower the standards and make some food that ordinary people can understand.
Then, when you recognize him, you are doing your best to make a real "warrior's meal."
Arthur said.
"Lower the standards?
Only those who I recognize are worthy of eating my "warrior's meal"? "
Eivor's eyes lit up.
Yes, how can people taste the food he has worked hard on casually.
Only those who he recognizes are qualified.
The rest?
Only the leftovers!
Eivor, who was a little unconfident in his cooking skills and even began to feel inferior, now has unprecedented confidence.
Who is he?
He is the 'Shadow Lord'!
Among assassins, he has the best cooking skills.
Among chefs, he has the strongest assassination skills.
His assassin's creed is: food comes first!
"Sir Acker, we will probably get up and head to the inner bay after the 'Winter Festival' is completely over - during this time, please adjust your state."
Arthur gave Acker a kind reminder.
Eivor on the side also nodded repeatedly.
"That's right, Acker, if you show up in Neiwan, your senior brother 'Blood Shadow Thorn' will never let you go.
The title of 'Lord of Blood Flow' was given to you by your teacher.
He was unwilling to accept it back then.
Now?
I'm afraid he is even more unwilling.
He has gained honor, status, reputation, and even trained enough assassins for the Grand Duke.
And you?"
Eivor didn't finish his words, but Acker understood what he meant.
The retired assassin nodded.
And Arthur thought to himself.
'Having such a deep connection with 'Blood Shadow Thorn' is really...
Great! '
If Arthur's expectation for Acker to follow him was 10 points before, now it is 100 points.
As long as Acker attracts the attention of 'Blood Shadow Thorn' for a period of time, he can devote himself to some things.
And he can grasp the situation faster.
You don't need too much.
As long as there is a support point, it's fine.
Arthur thought in his heart, but his gentle expression remained unchanged.
He never changed during the conversation of more than half an hour.
It was the same until Acker and Eivor left.
After watching the two assassins disappear in the shadows, Arthur returned to the "medium hall" and hugged Pendragon in his arms again, whispering to himself.
"Pan, we still have a force to use.
Should I take the initiative?
But if I take the initiative too much...
Will it scare them away?"
Arthur was talking about the "Amanda Cat Friends Home".
This suspected "cat faction" force.
Obviously, if there is really an extra 'Cat Pie' in the 'Inner Bay Trip', the security will be greatly enhanced.
But eventually, Arthur gave up on the idea.
Just like when he talks to himself.
What if I get scared and run away?
Moreover, maybe those former members of the 'Cat Faction' have already settled down and worked in peace and contentment.
In this case, it's better not to bother.
Arthur thought in his heart, raised Pendragon in front of him, and asked directly——
"Pan, are you too soft-hearted to tell me dad?"
…
"What do you think?"
Eivor asked directly as he and Akel walked side by side in the shadows.
No need to name names, Akel also knew what Eivor was asking.
"Can't see through."
Aker answered truthfully.
“Well, it feels like looking into a mirror through fog.
It's not just a disguise, it's not just a mask.
A little strange. "
Eivor nodded.
Then, the retired assassin's part-time cook added again.
"But he's probably not a bad person."
In this regard, Akel didn't say anything more and just quickened his pace.
His son and daughter are waiting for him.
Eivor didn't stay long either.
His situation is similar, but the difference is that if his wife knew that he disappeared while playing in the middle of the night, she would definitely slap his size 48 face with the soles of her size 38 shoes.
The two retired assassins returned home as quickly as possible.
In the old city, at Aker's house, brother and sister Alvin and Alma immediately gathered around him when they saw Aker returning.
"Father, are you okay?"
Alma asked softly.
"It's okay, everything is over."
Aker said with a smile.
He didn't directly say he was going to find Arthur, he just said he wanted to give some benefits to the police officers.
Alvin and Alma, who live in the old city, naturally understand this.
The brother and sister breathed a sigh of relief.
It's finally over.
"Go to sleep! It's okay!"
Aker said so.
Then, he walked to the bed on one side.
Alvin's bed is also here. The father and son are head-to-head.
As Alma grew up, the inner room became Alma's own room.
Alma stepped into the room and closed the door and breathed a sigh of relief.
‘It’s finally over!
Unfortunately, all the candies brought back by the brother were trampled to pieces.
next time!
My brother will bring some candy next time!
It will definitely be sweeter than this time! ’
When Alma took off her coat with a little regret and hung it on the wall, the girl subconsciously checked her pockets.
Then--
"Eh?"
A cry of surprise escaped his lips.
"Alma, what's wrong?"
Akel, Alvin and his son opened the door and saw their daughter and sister standing blankly in the room, with a beautifully packaged mint candy in their palms.
