Lord Chronicle

Chapter 271 A Happy Ending

that night,

"Where do you want to take me this time?"

Blindfolded, Sol walked forward step by step with the help of Jessica.

"Hee hee, don't you want to know what we're doing? You'll know when the time comes." Even though he couldn't see it, Sol could guess that Jessica must have a sly smile now.

At this moment, Sol suddenly felt a cool night wind coming towards him, with damp water vapor faintly in the wind, as if it had come to the river.

"Okay, it's here." At the same time, Jessica motioned for him to stop.

"Ready?" she asked.

Sol couldn't help but smiled wryly: "After waiting all afternoon, I couldn't prepare any more."

"Then..." Jessica pulled off the cloth on his face, "Please take a look."

Due to closing his eyes for too long, the blindfold was suddenly lifted, and Sol's eyes couldn't adapt for a while, and he couldn't see anything at all.

But at the same time, cheers like a tide came from his ears: "Happy birthday!"

"Huh!?" Sol was stunned by the scene in front of him when his sight was restored.

On the entire bank of the Yire River, on the flat river beach of nearly one kilometer, there was an endless stretch of red, stretching in his vision.

Looking carefully, it turned out to be countless red lanterns hanging on the wooden shelves all over the river beach.

And under the shelf, there were rows of long tables, each table was filled with mountains of food, and there were thousands of people around the table.

At this moment, everyone raised their glasses high and looked at themselves with smiles on their faces.

"What... what's going on?" Sol was so surprised that he couldn't help turning his head to look at Jessica.

"Happy birthday, my lord." Jessica smiled.

"Birthday? Whose?" Saul asked stupidly.

Jessica couldn't help showing an angry expression: "Who else could it be? Of course it's yours. I wonder why you didn't guess it at all. It turned out that you really forgot."

What forgot? Sol didn't even know that today was his birthday?

Speaking of which, after being in this world for so long, Sol has never had a birthday.It's just that he was a counterfeit, and he didn't care much about it, so he never took it to heart.

Only when Jessica told him about it did he realize that today was actually his... er no, the real Sol's birthday.

However, it has been several years since I came to Lovell, why did they think of celebrating for themselves today?

At this time, Jessica's words solved his doubts.I saw her looking at the river beach that was reflected in red, and said emotionally: "Looking back, it seems that every time you have a birthday, there will always be some unexpected things. Or there will be a war, and there will never be a suitable time to celebrate for you."

"This time, after discussing with grandpa, I decided to hold a birthday party for you no matter what, and this decision was also echoed by everyone in the territory, so these days everyone secretly arranged it without telling you."

"The cost of holding the banquet was voluntarily donated by all the residents of the territory; Aunt Maisie and the owners of various restaurants are responsible for supplying food; dwarves and barbarians are responsible for arranging the venue; Hitches and Mary are preparing to set off later Magic Fireworks…”

"So, my lord, this is the surprise prepared by the whole Lowell, working together for you."

Speaking of this, Jessica turned her head, her watery eyes reflected the light flowing on the river beach, shining brilliantly.

It turned out that this was the case secretly, and Sol suddenly realized, no wonder everyone is tight-lipped about him today.

As far as you can see, almost the entire population of Lovell is here.You know, with the continuous development, the current population of the territory has exceeded 7000. Such a huge arrangement was all carried out secretly without telling oneself, which shows how much thought everyone has put into it.

"Lord, please say a few words to everyone." At this time, Jessica said to him.

This is a good opportunity for Sol to make up for the failure of the "famous XXX speech" last time. However, facing the citizens, Sol opened his mouth, but in the end he only said sincerely.

"thank you all!"

"My lord, happy birthday."

Accompanied by Jessica, Sol walked into the river beach, and people kept sending him their blessings.

Sol frequently toasted in response, walked around the river beach, and greeted residents of all walks of life in the territory.

At this time, Sol had just fought a glass of ale with them under the booing of the dwarves, when he saw Marlene running over: "Sister Jessica, it's ready."

"Ready for what?" Saul asked strangely.

"This is a gift specially prepared by Marlene for you, let's go." Jessica pulled Saul and was about to walk forward.

"Wait, the lord hasn't toasted us yet." At this moment, the barbarians gathered around again.

The tall and savage savages surrounded the three of them like a wall. It seemed that Sol would not want to leave if he refused.

"Uh... I seem to be a little drunk, what should I do?" Sol shook his dizzy head.

Before Jessica could speak, Marlene bravely stood up: "I'll drink for the young master."

Sol and Jessica were taken aback. They still remembered the night of their departure last time. I accept your kindness, little Marlene. As for drinking... just forget it.

After Thor gritted his teeth and had a drink with the barbarians, they let him go.At this time, the residents in front spontaneously gave way to the two sides and parted a road.

So, Sol saw the huge elaborate birthday cake with five layers on the table in front.

"Marlene spent two days secretly doing this for you." Jessica whispered in his ear.

Sol was greatly moved. He turned to look at Marlene who was proud and a little embarrassed, and couldn't help but leaned over and hugged him: "Marlene, thank you, I'm so happy."

Suddenly being hugged by Sol, Marlene was a little startled, and then smiled happily: "Master, cut the cake."

Amidst the loud cheers of the residents, the exquisite cakes were quickly passed on, and because of this event, the atmosphere on the river beach reached its peak.

On the entire section of the river beach, there were crowds of people, people walking and talking casually, the aroma of food wafting in the air, and cheerful children playing and playing at the feet of adults.

At the end of the war, the whole of Dinard is still in chaos today. Such a happy scene can only be seen in Lovell.

At this time, Sol finally took the time to come to the side with Jessica, and sat side by side on the stones on the river beach with a glass of wine, enjoying the rare peace.

Residents who walked by kept raising their glasses to Saul, but they all knew how to disturb him.

Slightly raising her head, Jessica enjoyed the night breeze: "It's great, since the war started, everyone hasn't been so relaxed for a long time."

Sol also put his hands behind his back like her, and stretched his body as much as possible: "Yeah, I haven't been so relaxed for a long time. It feels so good to be home."

Jessica was about to speak when she saw Kress walking over.

"My lord, I have something to tell you." When he came to Sol, he stammered, as if he had something hard to say.

"What's the matter? Want to raise your salary, or do you want me to officiate your wedding with Julie?" Sol joked.

Kress blushed, "Of course not. In fact, I want to temporarily resign as the captain of the defense and prepare to leave Lovell for a while."

"What?" Saul sat up straight: "Where are you going?"

Kress quickly said: "That's it. Ever since I fought Igrid last time, I knew that I was still far behind. Although I had already comprehended fighting spirit in Ferry City, I knew that my swordsmanship It's not nearly enough."

"Now that the war is over, it is estimated that there will be no more enemies in the territory. So, after discussing with Julie when I came back this time, I decided to travel for a while, see more of the world, and then see what kind of situation I can achieve. To a certain extent, I hope you can allow it."

After speaking, Kress looked at Sol anxiously, waiting for his answer.

Unexpectedly, Kress had such an idea, Sol couldn't help but look at Jessica in surprise.

Sol knows best about Kress' talent in swordsmanship.From the stupid defense captain who could only be called a "good player" when he first came to Lovell, to the genius who has come all the way from actual combat and comprehends fighting spirit by himself, Kress's every progress is soaked in blood and passion. sweat.

As everyone thought, it would be a waste of his talents to stay in a place like Lovell.

No wonder Kress would reject the king's solicitation, it seems that he had already intended it?

"Well, of course I..." Saul said with a straight face on purpose, and when Kress was extremely nervous, he said slowly: "I agree."

"However..." Without waiting for Kress to thank him, Sol waved his hand again and said, "I will always reserve the position of the captain of the territory defense for you, you kid, don't even think about giving up."

Kress was slightly taken aback, and then said repeatedly: "Thank you, Lord Lord, I will definitely become a first-rate swordsman before returning to the territory."

Looking at the back of Kress leaving, Jessica turned to Sol and said, "Kress is finally planning to pursue his own path, what about you, what are your plans for the future?"

Taking a big breath of the moist and fresh air by the river, Sol closed his eyes and murmured: "Unlike him, I, the lord, have always had no ambitions. After the war is over, I have already prepared a way out for the king. Enjoy the rest of my life in the territory."

Seeing his usual lazy appearance, Jessica smiled on her face: "If you really think so, I will accompany you."

"What?" Sol's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly looked at Jessica.

Does what she said just now indicate something?

At this time, another person came over, but it was Kafir.

Seeing Jessica sitting next to Sol, she snorted softly, and then said to Sol, "Saul, happy birthday to you."

After drinking a lot of wine, Sol was already a little drunk. He waved to Kafir: "Thank you. It's very comfortable here, Kafir, would you like to sit down?"

Kafir didn't answer, but glanced at Jessica, who happened to be looking at her too, and the two women looked at each other, sparks sparked in the air immediately.

After that, Kafir sat on the other side of Sol as if demonstrating.

The atmosphere between the three of them immediately became a little awkward, and their expressions became a little unnatural.

Just when Saul was considering whether to find a topic, Kafir suddenly heard: "Sol, do you remember? There was a night when we sat together like this."

Sol didn't notice it for a while, and said casually: "Really, when?"

As soon as the words came out of my mouth, I was surprised that something was wrong.Sure enough, Kafir immediately turned his head and stared at him with burning eyes: "When you went to the death group, that night, you proposed to me in person."

Not only Saul, but also Jessica's face changed immediately.

Sol only felt his heart pounding. This matter had already been resolved between them when they came to Lovell. Although Lesta still called him brother-in-law, neither of them mentioned it again.

However, Kafir suddenly said it at this moment, still in front of Jessica.Obviously, she is not a fool, and I am afraid that she has already noticed the relationship between the two.

Not knowing what to say at all, Sol could only perfunctoryly say: "Ahaha, yes, at that time we..."

Not giving him a chance to evade, Kafir continued: "However, I also know that there are too many things to do, so I won't blame you for what you think of me. If you think I'm an eyesore here, I can Go right now."

With that said, she stood up at once.

Sol understood, however, that the "here" and "go" that Kafir said were obviously not as simple as this and this place. She probably meant...Leave Lovell!
Almost subconsciously, Sol grabbed her: "Don't go."

As soon as these words came out, Kafir turned his head in surprise, and Jessica opened her eyes even more.

Heartbroken, Sol took Kafir's hand and said, "I...have decided to spend the rest of my life in Lovell, Kafir, and I hope you can stay with me, always..."

"So, please don't go, okay?" Finally, Sol took a deep breath and said solemnly.

Before Kafir could speak, Jessica stood up with a livid face.

Almost without thinking, Sol grabbed her again.

"Let go of me, just pretend I didn't say anything." Jessica said angrily.

"What, what did you say?" Kafir also asked.

Seeing the two women who were in such a state of arrogance, Sol gritted his teeth, and pulled them hard with the strength of alcohol, and pulled them to sit down again.

"Shut up, I have the final say here!"

With an angry shout, Jessica and Kafir Qiqi were startled, and were really speechless for a while.

Holding tightly to the catkins of the two women, Sol gritted his teeth and said, "Stop talking, you two, I won't let go of either of you, understand?"

"If you are not convinced, beat me!"

The two women were taken aback for a moment, and after looking at each other, they suddenly bumped into Sol with the same elbow.

"You think beautiful!"

There was a scream, and at the same time when Sol threw his head up and fell, he suddenly heard a few howls, and clusters of colorful flames suddenly burst out in the dark night sky.

It was Marie and Hedges, who set off their homemade magical fireworks.

For a moment, everyone was attracted by the magnificent scenery in mid-air, and the three of them were no exception.

To fight, or not to fight, suddenly doesn't seem so important anymore.Why not enjoy this moment?
