Chapter 450 Courtship
Chapter 450 Courtship
There was a chorus of wailing in the room.
"Sir, can you give us some more time?" Jaina struggled to put the stone slab on the ground and asked.
“No, no!” Brownbeard put his hands behind his back and shook his head firmly. He seemed to have just woken up from his hangover, and his clever little head occupied the high ground again. “I have made an exception for you, and this is for the sake of our former allies!”
"Then please give us some time to organize and put them away." Lilith rolled her eyes and tried to delay.
“No, no, just put it wherever there’s room!” Brown Beard waved his hand indifferently, “Anyway, no one else will come to see this place except you guys.”
"...No wonder the order of these stone tablets is so messed up. The previous one is before the Holy Calendar and the next one is after the Holy Calendar." Lulu couldn't help but mutter to herself.
But they had to be more honest when they were in someone else's territory. No one dared to complain and just did as they were told. After a while, they left the collection room and watched the heavy stone door close behind them.
"Huh, it's still more comfortable outside." Lucas, who had been suffocating indoors for a long time, stretched himself, followed the brown-bearded man with a smile, bent down and started a conversation with the dwarf, "Sir, is there any tavern here that has any special dishes? We're about to leave, and we want to try them all..."
This guy's social skills are first-rate. He was chatting happily with Brownbeard in the front, while the others were some distance away. Lilith watched for a while, then turned to Catherine and said, "I don't think so."
"What?" Catherine was walking slowly forward side by side with her, and saw Lilith raised her finger and quietly pointed at the blue-haired boy in front.
"I, I can't explain it, but I just don't think so. Besides, the backstab must have some benefit, right? But look at the situation of the sea people now..." Lilith looked at the back in front of her and said thoughtfully, "The old gods all have strong regional attributes. If "He" can gain benefits by doing this, how can humans become managers of the East Coast, and how can the sea people with mermaid blood be displaced."
Therefore, either there was a loophole in the tactics formulated by Zora, and the Void Beast found an opportunity to survive, or something unexpected happened under the sea level. If that was the case...
"Lucas!"
Just as I walked out of the library and reached the street corner, I heard a familiar voice and a figure rushed over like a whirlwind and hugged the blue-haired boy who was laughing and chatting with the dwarf in front of him, which scared him.
"Great! You haven't left yet!" The man was quite excited at this moment and hugged Lucas and refused to let go.
"Eh? Eh?!" Lucas, who was dragged, was surprised and asked the same question for his companions behind him - "Lariel? Why are you still here?"
It was that elf boy. Everyone thought he had been sent away, but he was still in Blackstone!
"Lariel!" Another voice sounded, but it was not from Lilith and the others, but from -
A group of people came from the other side of the street again and met Lilith and her group at the street corner. They were also old acquaintances.
"Ah, Mr. Raphael, your tail is attached, ahaha, that's great!" Lilith was the first to go over and greet them. They were the group of lizardmen who were unfamiliar to them. Leading them was the lizardman shaman whose tail she had cut off, who was now staring at Lilith and the others with a bad look.
"I was embarrassed to say it last time because the timing was wrong. Hehe, your tail is really beautiful, and it feels great to touch. It's icy cold!" Lilith smiled awkwardly and tried to ease the atmosphere. They were about to leave, so they must not cause any trouble or they would be unable to leave.
However, the atmosphere became even weirder after she said these words. The lizardman looked at her with even more anger, causing Lilith's voice to become smaller and smaller.
The brown-bearded man standing next to Lucas sighed in surprise, "Oh my, human girls nowadays are incredible. They care about marriage at such a young age. You have good taste. Raphael is a very hardworking broker. He has earned a lot of money outside in the past few years!"
Lilith's jaw dropped, and she got closer and closer to the ground as Brownbeard spoke, "What what what!?
"Lilith." Lariel came over and explained in a low voice, "Praising the lizardman's tail is a courtship behavior. You, you should at least stay away from others..."
Lilith:!!!
She wasn't! She didn't! Oh my God! She is such an introvert, how could she flirt with a decent man in the street!
“——You, come here!”
As Lilith's face was filled with fear, the lizardman shaman opposite her opened his mouth grimly and called on Lilith to come forward.
"No no no no sir! That's not what I meant! Cultural differences! You understand cultural differences!" Lilith waved her hands frantically in refusal at Leila's dark face.
However, the opponent had already stepped forward, pulled out a dagger and slashed his own palm. Blood immediately dripped down, and the people on Lilith's side all gasped and took a step back in unison.
The shaman was so angry when he saw the group of little brats on the opposite side retreating in unison like a small square formation, always keeping a distance from him who was advancing. His head was buzzing and he stopped immediately.
"I'm sorry, sir. We don't know much about the customs of the orcs. Lilith didn't mean to offend you. Besides, in terms of human age, she is still a child." Catherine gritted her teeth and explained quickly, trying to save her companion who was nodding frantically.
The other party didn't say anything, but threw the dagger directly at Lilith, who could only catch it in a panic.
"Make an oath to me." The shaman named Raphael said coldly to Lilith.
Lilith had just caught the dagger when her jaw dropped again. Wasn't this process too fast? Brother, how should I tell him that forced love is no longer popular? !
"This, this is not good..." Lilith stammered, "This kind of thing requires my mother's approval." If he could get Mrs. Shelley to nod, then she would accept it.
"Clang!" Ian on the side has already drawn his sword, apparently not prepared to obey the other party's orders. His face is full of murderous intent, and he is ready for a decisive battle.
——If Blackstone had not changed the law that regarded killing humans as a crime... Looking at the group of foolish young people who were facing a formidable enemy, the Lizardman Shaman closed his eyes again and again, exhaled fiercely, and finally managed to organize his words, "Lairel still insisted on returning to the Gaia Empire with you."
"...Ah?" Lilith had a dazed look on her face.
"That's right! As many people came as should go back together, right Lilith!" Lariel immediately nodded frantically.
"...Ah?" Lilith slowly put down the dagger.
"But I don't trust you, humans." The Lizardman Shaman squeezed out the last two words almost with gritted teeth. He raised his hand, and the blood had already flowed into his wrist, staining the tie on his cuff red.
"You must swear a blood oath with me, promising never to harm the elves, before he can go with you."
"...Ah?" Lilith finally understood the visitor's intention. The next second, she felt her toes almost digging through the rock slab beneath her feet.
