Chapter 36 (2/2)
Tina blinked and froze again.
The taste in the mouth has already changed from the initial stimulation to softness, into a very strange but fascinating taste.
”Mints...?”
Tina found that she fell in love with this thing in the twinkling of an eye. She carefully held those mints, found good sisters and distributed them to share with them.
”My God!” Marlene exclaimed and covered her head. ”I feel like lightning in my head!”
”I seem to be frozen! It's cool!”
”Magic, this must be some magic!”
”How wonderful and charming! Tina, this thing is really made by the Lord!”
”Yes,” Tina nodded vigorously, ”the LORD said it was called a mint.”
”Any more? I want to bring one back to my brother.”
”My sister wants it too!”
”And me!”
Tina didn't expect everyone to be so enthusiastic. She was caught off guard. The handful of mints Donne grabbed for her were divided up in the blink of an eye.
”This, this is what the Lord gave me... I, I also want to stay and eat slowly...”
Tina wanted to cry without tears, but when she saw everyone's happy smiling faces, she sighed, soon put it down and happily discussed it with everyone.
We talked about mints, Lord, Lord's kindness, Lord's wisdom, Lord's gossip
Of course, Donne didn't know he was being discussed by the maids. He wandered out of the Lord's house and looked silly.
He doesn't know where Elia lives yet.
”By the way, ask Edgar.”
Donne clapped his hands and ran to Edgar's blacksmith's shop.
As soon as I entered the door, I heard Brian yelling, ”you're too slow! Come on! Otherwise you won't finish it by the day after tomorrow! Humans are really troublesome!”
”You make molds there and give me all these jobs. Of course it's slow!”
Edgar was full of complaints, but he didn't dare to complain to Brian. He suddenly saw Donne and was stunned: ”Lord, why are you here again? Don't worry, the task will be completed.”
Donne looked at the semi-finished products on the ground. In just one hour, he had made more than 100. He estimated that there was still enough time, so he smiled and said, ”I know, there is still enough time. Don't be too tired.”
Edgar brightened his muscles and said with a smile, ”thank you Lord for your concern. I have no problem.”
”Well, do you know where Elia lives?”
”Elia? The orphan girl with a little lonely character?”
”Orphan?”
”Yes, I don't know who her parents are. When people in the town saw her, they were in the woods in the west of the town.”
Edgar scratched his head: ”after taking her back to town, because some strange things always happen around her, everyone gradually alienated her over time, and her character became very lonely.”
”Strange things?”
”Yes, strange lights, strange whispers, and others were hurt, so some people thought she was an ominous incarnation and wanted to expel her.” at this point, Edgar jumped in his heart and hurriedly added, ”but that's all in the past. Since the albertons adopted her, with Elsa's company, she is now a lot more lively.”
”I see...”
Donne pondered for a moment and asked, ”where is Elsa's house?”
Edgar stretched out his hand: ”go out and walk along this road for about two hundred steps, on the right.”
Donne nodded, then turned and went out.
Elia is an orphan. She was treated unfairly when she was a child. It's normal to be lonely. It's better to say that it's not normal to be trained into a lively little girl by ELSA now.
However, I'm afraid the abnormal phenomena mentioned by Edgar appear because of Elijah's magic affinity. If the elements around him are too rich and don't know how to control and dredge, there will be abnormal phenomena. If any mage saw her, he must have brought her back as a closed disciple. Unfortunately, there are few adventurers here in Ellington, let alone mages, Elia was naturally regarded as a monster.
Poor little fellow
Donne shook his head and came to Elsa's house.
”Eh? Big brother!”
Before knocking on the door, he heard Elia's surprised voice. Donne turned around and saw the lovely little girl sitting in the yard washing clothes with a basin of water.
Prandal residents are generally precocious, but it's too cruel to let Elia wash clothes?
Donne frowned slightly.
”Cough... Elia, who's here?”
A female voice came from the room.
Elia said crisply, ”it's the big brother - the big brother of the Lord.”
”Lord?”
The woman was a little surprised and said, ”I'm very sorry, Lord. I'm Elsa's mother Clara. I'm not in good health, so I can't meet you...”
i see! Because she's not feeling well, Elia is volunteering to help.
Donne suddenly realized and touched Elia's head. The little girl is so sensible!
