Chapter 17 Flowers and Pigs

If you have watched fairy tales or fairy tales, then you will definitely like the scene that appears now. Under the soft lights, the cute pink pig walked upright into the hall. It was wearing a fitted black dress, a small round hat, and a civilization stick in its left hand. No matter from which angle, this smiling and cute pet pig can touch the soft hearts of all women...

"Is this your gift?" After a little stunned, many nobles turned their eyes to Winter, who was also confused, as if waiting for his answer. At the same time, Naya, who was extremely cute, had already swayed towards Anne, and then took off her hat and saluted in a funny and cute voice, saying in a muffled voice: "Beautiful lady, please allow me to present it to you on behalf of my master, Marquis Winter...well!"

Before it could finish speaking, Anne, who was completely moved, held it tightly and shaved his nose and said softly: "Be good, what a lovely little thing! Mr. Winter, do you mind giving me this little pig?"

"Of course...of course not, because it is not my pet, but my friend's summoned monster." Moved by Anne's begging tone, Winter almost blurted out. Fortunately, after seeing An Ruoran's threatening gaze, he immediately shook his head helplessly and said embarrassedly: "Then, why don't you take a look at the flowers I sent first?"

Annie was slightly stunned, and she couldn't help but feel a little unhesitant in her expression. Fortunately, at this moment, Naya, who was close to her chest, finally came to her senses, and waved her short front hooves, and took out a handful of flowers like magic. The next moment, when she saw this bouquet of flowers, Miss Annie, who was originally a little dissatisfied, suddenly became slightly stunned, and then she let out a low voice in disbelief, her voice full of surprise and joy.

This is a bouquet of dozens of flowers. Although the flowers as raw materials are not very expensive, after An Ruoran's special magic processing, they seem so unique in the exquisite bouquet. Each flower is sealed in the magic crystal liquid mixed between five colors, making it look gorgeous and vital; the faint fragrance flows through the magic array and fills the air, making people intoxicated; and the most eye-catching thing is that it seems that the petals of the flowers are inlaid with nearly transparent magic fonts, but it is too small to see clearly...

"Give it to Winter, the most beautiful woman in my heart!" A few seconds later, Anne gently pulled out a flower and murmured the handwriting on the petals. Although she had seen countless similar sweet words, no words of praise could be embedded in this beautiful bouquet, not being attacked by the passing time. Therefore, for a moment, Miss Anne couldn't help but show a slightly intoxicated expression, and the eyes she looked at Winter naturally had a little bit of tenderness and sweetness.

After being stared at Anne so affectionately, Winter became confused for a moment and almost didn't know how to continue talking. Fortunately, An Ruoran appeared behind him in time, and coughed lightly as if nothing had happened, and kicked his heels. A few seconds later, Winter, who came to his senses, finally remembered the lines and continued: "It makes you laugh. Although it is not a precious flower, I specially invited several magic casters to process it so that the beauty of this bouquet can continue. I think, perhaps the beauty of this bouquet will be like your beauty, forever in time and in my heart forever."

Anne was silent, as if she had not seen his words, but the tenderness and sweetness flowing in her eyes were enough to make people intoxicated. This time, without An Ruoran reminding her anything, Winter immediately took advantage of the victory to pursue her. He immediately said a lot of sweet words prepared in advance, which made Anne happy and even promised to accompany him to the garden outside the hall for a walk.

Seeing this, the nobles who were waiting to watch the show could only disperse. The Marquis Rhine, who was holding a bouquet of flowers, was still standing there. The precious bouquet in his hand suddenly became a very wonderful irony. An Ruoran shrugged his shoulders without any reason, held Christine's slender waist, and smiled faintly behind him: "It's a pity that I overestimated Mr. Winter's love rival..."

If the eyes could kill people, then An Ruoran might have been cut into seventeen or eighteen sections, but the Marquis Rhine had not yet practiced to this level, so he could only look at An Ruoran with an angry look, even if it was ineffective at all. Fortunately, a servant slowly walked up and bowed and invited him, "Mr. An, Speaker Catherine invited you to the study room upstairs to have a small gathering."

An Ruoran and Christine looked at each other, then followed the servant out of the hall and walked slowly towards the study on the second floor. Marquis Rhine was still standing in the hall, but his vicious expression gradually calmed down. After a long time, he suddenly sneered and murmured: "So, was Nicholas killed by such a guy? Hehehe, whether it was Christine or Anne, they were all forbidden things of the deity after all!"

Unknown to Rhine's self-talk and resentment, An Ruoran, accompanied by Christine, gently pushed open the vacant door. While the creaking sound came, his beautiful figure turned slowly towards them, and smiled slightly, "Mr. An, this is our first time meeting!"

Under the soft candlelight, this kind-hearted woman exudes charm, and even the passing years cannot invade her, but it only adds a bit of maturity to her beautiful face. From the outside, Speaker Catherine, known as a strong woman, is very similar to Christine, but her temperament seems more gentle and gentle than the cold Christine, but she also contains a bit of majesty of a superior.

After a little stunned, An Ruoran immediately bowed and did not dare to be negligent. Catherine invited him to sit with a smile on her face, and poured him a cup of strong coffee himself. She seemed very familiar with her words and had no sense of estrangement from strangers. Seeing this situation, Christine, who was originally a little nervous, finally breathed a sigh of relief and showed a faint smile.

Seeing this scene as if nothing happened, Catherine still maintained a gentle smile and said lightly to An Ruoran: "Speaking of this, I would like to thank you for your help before that Christine escaped from the dungeon. But I didn't expect that Maldini would do such a thing, and Nicholas would actually be..."

It seemed that he didn't expect Nicholas to be a demon. Catherine sighed in disbelief, and her calm expression could not find any flaws. An Ruoran looked for a moment, then gave up the idea of ​​checking the details and agreed: "Who said no, I originally thought he was a semi-demon. But when it comes to Maldini, can you reduce the punishment a little, because it is now serving Christine and me."

"Well, since you said that..." Catherine turned her head and looked at Christine, reluctantly saying, "Okay, then let it hand over all the casting drawings of the new weapon and compensate me with 300,000 gold coins in batches. But this is not the point. The point is that I really hope to cooperate with Mr. An. I wonder if you are willing to do some casting for me?"

"Of course, as long as the price is right, I am willing to take any order." An Ruoran smiled and slowly stood up to salute, "But you know, all I can cast at the moment are high-level items, if you have too high requirements..."

"It's okay, actually I also need to verify your casting ability through a period of time." Catherine raised her hand and asked him to sit down, and poured him a cup of coffee. "I'll tell you the truth. I'm interested in your potential rather than strength, so I hope that through a period of cooperation, I will have the opportunity to formally invite you to serve me in the future."

What she said was so direct that An Ruoran didn't know how to answer, so she could only cough a few times to avoid the past. The two of them talked for a while, but they just exchanged greetings and talked about topics such as customs and customs. After a while, when she saw that there was nothing else, An Ruoran got up and said goodbye and left, and Christine accompanied him out of the room.

And the moment the door closed, another figure suddenly appeared from behind the bookcase. He walked to the desk as if nothing had happened, looked directly at Catherine with a calm expression and said, "Dear Speaker, what are you going to do? You really want to win over this ignorant little guy?"

"Of course! My intuition tells me that he will become a very good casting master, which will be very helpful for us to enter the Tower of Heaven." Looking at Rhine who was sitting slowly down, Catherine advised lightly in an equal tone rather than the tone of the superior to the subordinate, "So Rhine, you'd better give up your delusion about Christine, because I have to rely on her to win over this Mr. An Ruoran."

"I know, it's just you and that guy's illegitimate daughter. Do you need to be so stingy?" Rhine smiled blankly, and a light shot out from his fingertips, melting the cup of coffee An Ruoran into gas. "But, there's no problem with Anne! If that annoying Winter makes trouble again, I don't mind letting him disappear from this world quietly like those nobles at the time."

"I have no objection to this matter, but don't attract An Ruoran's attention." Catherine smiled slightly, but frowned again and said, "In addition, if you have time, help me go to the Kashyapa Empire to explore the details of the little girl. According to Christine, she seems to be able to evolve into a demon. I have a little doubt that she is..."

"Well, you mean..." Rhine's smile suddenly disappeared on her face, and a solemn look appeared. After a moment of silence, he suddenly supported himself and nodded gently and said, "Okay, I understand! If it is really like you guessed, then we will add another companion, and we are powerful companions!"
