The son-in-law of Mr. Hachishaku

Chapter 158 Friends who share weal and woe

Laya's popularity in the Huoshan Residence is quite good, and almost everyone she meets will greet her warmly.

Li Ang benefited from her and received a lot of preferential treatment.

The two walked through the crowd to the end of the long table to greet the hostess.

There is an empty seat next to Tanis, which should belong to Rakad, but he probably won't be able to come today.

"I'm very happy to see you guys get to play together so quickly."

"The banquet is about to begin. Find a place to sit quickly."

"Laya, since he is the hero you recruited, I will leave him under your care and don't let him be left out in the cold."

Tanith's demeanor was still dignified and calm, and it was impossible to tell that she was a dancer.

"Yes, Lady Tanis." Laya saluted her respectfully, and then planned to take Li Ang to find a location.

The little snake rarely calls Tanis mother in public, but Tanis likes to refer to Laya as 'the child I raised' in front of others.

Probably because you have to call your job title when you work.
"Wait a minute." Tanis stopped her daughter who was about to leave: "I wrongly blamed you before, and now I apologize to you."

"Plus. Your grounding order has been lifted."

After hearing this, La Ya immediately wanted to cheer loudly, and she could finally go out to play.

But since Tanis was always looking at her, she didn't dare to do anything rude, so she had to suppress her excitement and said steadily: "You don't have to apologize to me. What I did was not good enough. Finally, thank you. Tolerance, my lord."

Tanith was very satisfied with the little snake's performance, which showed that her painstaking teachings were not in vain.

"It seems that I have to consider adding more burdens to you. I heard that many strange people have come to Nimgefu recently. Are you interested in recruiting them to the official residence?"

La Ya unconsciously glanced at Li Ang beside her.

What she was thinking about was that when the first hero she recruited had just arrived, she would immediately recruit the next one, which was quite a bit like the new and disliked the old.

It would be bad if Li Ang got angry because of this matter.

But she couldn't refuse Tanith's order, so she could only think of a compromise.

"Let's wait a few more days."

Naturally, her daughter’s thoughts cannot be hidden from her mother. Tanis smiled and said, “You can go whenever you want.”

With her assurance, Laya suddenly felt much more relaxed: "Thank you for your understanding."

"Go and sit down." Tanis touched the little snake's face lovingly: "By the way, the hair is well braided and very beautiful."

La Ya lowered her head shyly and smiled.

Tanis then turned to look at Li Ang: "During the banquet, I will arrange the process of meeting my king. Please be sure to listen."

"Okay, I will listen carefully." Li Ang kept a smile on his face.

But I was thinking in my heart, where will this woman arrange him in the end, as an appetizer?main course?Or appetizers?
Then, La Ya took him to the other side of the long table and sat down.

The little snake moved away from the hostess of the mansion who awed her. She instantly relaxed and put half of her face on the cold table, saying feebly:
"I'm so hungry. When can we have dinner?"

She is currently in a period of rapid growth, and she gets hungry easily.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she finished speaking, emerald green fruits were handed to her.

But this time it wasn't Li Ang.

It was a god-skin noble sitting next to the two of them.

"Pangpang, have you forgotten that I am not a vegetarian?" Sometimes La Ya can't remember the name, so she likes to call each other by their physical characteristics.

Fat Shenpi smiled and stuffed the fruit into his mouth, eating it so that the juice splashed everywhere.

In fact, judging from his muscular forearms, he is not fat. The reason why he looks bloated is because of the robe on his body.Sewn with smooth skin, soft and elastic, as white and greasy as if it had just been peeled off.

If you get close enough, you can even smell the grease.

As for what kind of leather it is made of, you can tell by its name - God Skin.

But it's not a true god, but a demi-god, or the skin of a descendant of a god like Greg.

The god-skin nobles not only look terrifying in appearance, but their origins are also very legendary.

In ancient times, in order to control the border areas, the Supreme Will sent different finger messengers and selected two spokesmen, the first generation of gods.

One is the Eternal Queen Malika.

The name of the other god has long been forgotten, only that she is known as the "Queen of Dark Eyes".

Malika chose the golden tree, which can bring fertility and abundance to the border area, as her law.

But the queen with dark eyes chose the frightening [Death of Destiny].

As we all know, the death of destiny is a power that can kill even gods. In order to clear the obstacles on the way to becoming a god, she began to hunt the indigenous gods in the junction area to demonstrate her law.

These god-skin nobles were once her personal guards, so they wore robes made of god-skin.

Of course, the Queen of Dark Eyes eventually lost to Malika, otherwise her name would not have been forgotten.

It is worth mentioning that the messenger who selected the queen with dark eyes was none other than Three Fingers.

Because it lost the battle for the God of Choice, after Malika took over, the two fingers killed all the finger-removing old women under its command, causing it to be unable to convey its will and eventually fell into madness.

The story of the junction is like this, one link after another, the previous cause leads to the subsequent effect.

After the death of the Queen of Night Eyes, her subordinates are still resisting the Second Finger and the Golden Dynasty. Many of them choose to cooperate with other forces, such as the current Volcano Mansion.

Shenpi was also involved in the assassination of Godwin.

It can be said that as long as it can cause trouble for the Golden Dynasty, they will never tire of it.

Therefore, in the game, divine skins are stationed at several divine grant towers in order to prevent the Faded One from activating the Great Rune and disrupting Two Finger's plan to reforge Elden's Ring.

Seeing how delicious Fat God Skin was, Li Ang couldn't help but pick up a fruit from the plate on the table.

Just as he was preparing to enter, he noticed the slightly resentful look in the little snake's eyes.

Her stomach growled twice quite cooperatively.

"I was afraid that he wouldn't be able to reach it, so I helped him get it." Li Ang smiled sarcastically and put the fruit in front of Fat God Pi: "Friend, eat more, you've lost weight."

Fat God Skin refused to accept anyone who came, and accepted his kindness with a smile.

Laya was a little embarrassed: "You didn't mean not to let you eat, I just...forget it, you can eat, I don't care about you."

Li Ang winked at the little snake: "Good friends should share joys and sorrows, right?"

"Yes!" Laya looked up at him in admiration.

As expected of her hero, he immediately understood what she wanted to say.

"Now I allow you to eat, but don't go hungry." The little snake put his hand on his empty belly: "The feeling of being hungry is very uncomfortable."

The cute look made Li Ang couldn't help but laugh, and then reached out to touch the top of her head.

"My hair... my hair will be messy." Although Laya was reluctant, her body leaned sideways in cooperation.

The hero's hands are so warm, like family.

She thought so.
