Chapter 87

After just a few seconds, his eyes turned slightly and smiled again: "I know, Ariel. You looked smart back then. Do you want me to think you're running this guild here with the royal family? Hehe, if I don't know you, I'm afraid I'll be really frightened by you. But I won't. "

The grain spread out his hands and said with a look of excitement, "there is no majesty or royal family. Although I don't know why Miss Ariel, who is so noble, will do such a cheap job in such a place now, you don't have to try to deceive me with these tricks. "

Forced to the corner, arrow's face instinctively began to show a smile. He silently looked at the man in front of him, and his hands involuntarily grasped the bedding more tightly.

"So... Grain reciter. Can you tell me... Who the hell are you? How did you... Know my name? "

Grain walked slowly to the bedside, stretched out his hand and gently took off the hat on arrow's head. With that long golden hair falling like a waterfall, grain duo looked at the girl's face in front of him with great admiration and said slowly with a little nostalgic emotion——

"Five years... Miss Ariel is really getting more and more beautiful after five years of absence."

In the face of praise, the girl forced her face to hold a smile, but her teeth fought involuntarily.

"In fact, at the beginning, I didn't realize that you were Miss Ariel. Until the night I first came, I tasted the dish of cheese sauce and the croissant that gave me endless aftertaste. "

He stood up and paced up and down the room. A moment later, as if he could no longer restrain his feelings, he sat on the stool in front of the dressing table, took off the lute behind him, played it gently and said——

"It's the smell that reminds me of the night five years ago."

"I will never forget what I experienced that night, how cold the snow was and how strong the wind was. I will never forget that a little bard who is tired and hungry and full of thoughts about leaving his hometown and wandering in the capital is about to become a body hidden in the snowflakes. "

A little fiddle with your fingers on the string to play a slightly sad music——

"I was born in a small country and my family is poor. The only thing I have is the way to play the lute. In order not to admit my fate and live better, I left my hometown at the age of 18 and went to the capital Hanhai City, hoping to make a lot of money. "

"However, I was ill fated and weak, but I was miserable in the capital. Not only is the money from working cheated, but even if you want to earn some money by playing lute, you will be robbed by others immediately. Everything seems to be saying to me... You are not the material to make money at all. Go back, go back to your small countryside, be a farmer facing the Loess and facing the sky, and live quietly all your life! "

"Finally, I reached my limit five years ago."

"Without a coin, I was driven out of my house by the landlord. I have no money, no food, no shelter, no friends, no warmth. "

"I walked alone in the cold streets of Hanhai city. The wind and snow blowing in the face seemed to take away my remaining temperature and guide me slowly to death."

"I fell. With despair and sadness. "

"At that time, I even began to regret why I wanted to run out. I began to regret why I became like this. "

"My whole body is full of pain and despair. I can even feel my heart slowly condensing into frost in this cold. I thought I was finished... I thought my life would be called by God and leave me gradually... "

"But at that critical moment!"

As soon as the sound of the piano turned, the melody suddenly changed from the original sadness to a hopeful march!

"When I was about to close my eyes and sleep forever, I heard a voice!"

"It's just the voice of an angel ~ ~ it's a ten-year-old girl, a little immature, but with an infinitely beautiful voice."

"I swear, that's the best thing I've ever eaten in my life. The feeling of cheese sauce and croissant melting in my mouth will never be forgotten in my life! "

"I was carried to the girl's house, a Grand Manor I had never imagined in my life!"

"My stomach is warm because of food, and my heart is healed because of the girl's smile. It was also at that time that I knew the girl's name... The name like an angel! "

"Ariel Garcia."

The girl on the bed clenched her teeth slightly and showed a slightly painful color because of the pain.

Many grains are still smiling and say slowly——

"Since then, I swear that since God sent such a beautiful girl to save me in my most painful time, I must make a career, become a man and make a lot of money!"

"Therefore, I will never have any complaints again. I strive to cultivate and strengthen my strength. At the same time, let yourself become better and stronger! But no matter how strong I become, I will never forget the girl who gave me a bread and cheese sauce that night. "

"So... When I meet you again here, I can hardly describe my mood in words. Ariel, do you understand now? "

The sound of the piano stopped, and the grain's face was full of moving and tears. He looked at the girl in bed with no respect in his eyes. But the expression of gratitude was silent.

The girl raised her hand and silently gathered her hair. After a long time, she nodded faintly: "so... You were the Bard lying in front of our residence... You didn't say, I forgot to have you..."

Grain put down the lute, smiled and nodded, "so now you know I will never take any action against the mermaid song? Maybe I've been a little tough before, but I'll never forget your kindness to me, Miss Ariel. "

The girl breathed out a breath to cheer up her spirit a little, and said slowly, "I know. So... Cereal reciter, I'm sorry I was a little wary of you before. I'm here again to welcome you to join our mermaid song... "

The grain nodded, smiled and said, "it doesn't matter, I understand. I'm not very happy that a girl like you wants to be the president of the guild. Anyway, the guild president is a very dangerous job. It also takes a lot of time and energy to take care of it. These rough jobs are really not suitable for girls like you. "

The girl closed her eyes and said weakly, "it's all right. I know my situation. Can you go out? It's not a gentleman's way to stay so long in a lady's room. "

Although it is said that there are many grains, it still doesn't mean to get up immediately. His face was still smiling and his expression was still so calm: "of course, of course. But since everyone in the guild thinks you are a man, I won't have any problem staying here longer. Ariel, you look tired and sick. How about this? I'll manage the guild affairs in the future. You can't work so hard as a girl. Women naturally deserve the protection and understanding of gentlemen. You'll cook later and settle the accounts. It's up to me to manage the guild. "

At that moment, the girl's eyebrows tightened slightly.

It was like hearing something very familiar and uncomfortable for her.

But at this moment, the girl tried her best to be polite and restrained, and said slowly, "no... it doesn't matter. I just need a break... You'd better go to work with Brad and them. I will manage the affairs of the guild myself. You don't have to worry about it. "

"No, no, no, look at what you said. Ariel, you women can't be bothered, but it's written in the laws of the Empire! "

The grain is much better than the rest, he said lightly——

"Any woman of the blue bay Empire should be protected by her husband, father, son, brother and brother. And any woman's husband, father, son, brother and brother are naturally obliged to protect their own women. "

"At the same time, in order for women to concentrate on taking care of their offspring and assisting their husbands at home, China does not allow women to do business outside. If a family is reduced to the point where women are needed to be the president of the guild and the boss to make money, it shows how incompetent the men of this family are. They even need women to make money to support them. "

"So, Ariel, I don't mean to embarrass you. But in fact, it's illegal for you to run this guild. Although women can do part-time work, I have never heard that the Empire will allow women to run guilds. "

Bang——

The girl's fist fell on the quilt, and her smile was a little stiff. This is no longer fear, but with a little anger facing the grain over there.

"My business... Leave it alone!"

In the face of the girl's roar, many grains smiled and said, "Ariel, this is not a problem I don't care about, but such a problem. You can marry at your age. The guild should be your husband's, but you don't have a husband now. Do you think that if a man comes and marries you one day, this mermaid song will immediately become your husband's property? To be more explicit, if one day everyone knows that the president of mermaid song is a woman... Then the legitimacy and legitimacy of our guild will be cancelled immediately. The mermaid song will be dissolved immediately. Have you considered this? "

While talking, many grains walked into the bed. At the same time, he reached out and wanted to touch the blonde hair.

But when his fingers were about to touch him, the girl suddenly shook her hand and pushed him away with all her strength!

"I... Said... My business... Don't worry about it! Besides... Dare you tell me my secret... "

Many grains didn't mind. He just shook his hand gently, smiled and said, "tell me? No, no, no, of course I won't say it. If you say it, our guild will be over. However, in order to prevent the most difficult situation, I still suggest that we make some minor changes to the mermaid song. "

"Ariel, transfer the president of the guild to me."

"You should believe that with your weak body, it is impossible to lead the guild to prosperity. What mermaid song needs is a strong president who can lead all members forward. Please rest assured that I am not a beginner. I have rich experience and will never let the mermaid song fall. If you really like guild life, you can stay here to cook, settle accounts and listen to the adventure stories we bring you. But if you really want to command the whole guild, you can't do it with such a weak body. "

The girl breathed heavily, her cheeks were crimson, and her forehead was so hot that she was almost cooked.

Seeing that the president girl had no strength to answer, the grain smiled faintly and said, "that's all I said. You should think about it. I'll give you three days. In these three days, I will temporarily take the responsibility of acting president. I hope you can automatically transfer the president to me in three days. If you still haven't figured it out when the time comes... "

He walked slowly to the door, opened the door, looked back and saw the girl panting there again, and smiled——

"I don't know why you, who used to be so noble, now hold an adventurer guild completely belonging to the old man in this place. But since you dress up as a man, you don't want anyone to know about it? Do you think if your true gender is exposed, your members and the townspeople of this town will recognize you as the president of mermaid song? At that time, there will be no leaders in this guild. Don't you need me to lead the people to meet the difficulties? Hehe, so for the sake of dignity for both of us, I hope you can think it over. "

With a smile, with a smile without any pressure at all, grain walked out of the door and slowly pulled up the door

"Wait a minute!"

"Oh? What's the matter? "

When he opened the door again, he stared at the girl who had been in his heart for five years. As long as he didn't ask too much, he thought he should be able to agree to any request of the girl.

"Help me... Buy some clothes... Women's clothes..."

Despite her weakness, the girl tried to make her voice heard——

"Buy... A bigger one... I don't want... To make people think I... Look... Too thin..."

With a smile, grain nodded gently: "obey ~ ~ life ~ ~, my lady. Drink some hot water and have a good rest. "

With a squeak, the door closed.
