"Since when do villagers bring hoes to the inn at night?! That's totally not what villagers do, right? Aren't they supposed to be snoring like pigs by now?" Lureya remarked.
Speaking of which, why is my Spirit Protection Array so fragile? Can't it even withstand a hoe?
No matter how useless the Tablet Spirit is, it's not sothing that a re ordinary job can provoke.
The magic array she set up in the room could definitely withstand an entire night of hoe attacks from ordinary villagers.
However, what Shami used was a strike from a max-level villager, mixed with a bit of magic power, and as a result, like knocking on a brittle biscuit, the Spirit Protection Array shattered with just one hit.
"I thought you were trapped in your room by so mysterious evil force, so I ca to rescue you."
Lureya raised her eyebrows speechlessly.
Shami looked innocent, as if this was really the case to those who were unaware.
But you are the greatest evil force yourself!
Lureya was no longer sleepy, crossed her arms in front, her golden hair cascading down her slender waist: "What do you want with at night?"
"Have you eaten?"
"Huh?"
"I heard you don't have much money, so I specially brought so late-night snacks for you. If you haven't eaten, you can fill your stomach now." Shami held grilled skewers freshly bought from the tavern, packed in a paper bag, still steaming.
Lureya's petite nose imdiately caught the tasty scent of grilled at, and she couldn't help but swallow.
In the Elf Forest, elves typically eat natural fruits and vegetables. Her dinner was fruits and veggies too. But that doesn't an elves are vegetarians and can't eat at!
Lureya loves eating at! However, afraid of leaving behind words that damage the image of the Elf Race like "elves eat at," she held back the urge every ti she sneaked out of the Elf Forest.
Even though she had caught so small fish and rabbits by the riverside herself, the Elf Race doesn't have ancestral cooking skills, so she made them hard to swallow. After trying several tis, she completely gave up on cooking at herself.
Lureya couldn't rember how long it had been since she last ate at.
Now, the aromatic grilled at was right in front of her.
Her mind raced wildly.
To eat or to refuse?
Personal hunger or the Elf Race's image?
Actually, it didn't matter if Shami saw her eating at; no one would believe a demon king anyway.
The elf's image wouldn't collapse at all~
"My stomach is a bit hungry." Lureya blinked, opened the door, and invited Shami in: "Co in..."
Shami entered the room and found a place to sit quietly.
anwhile, seeing Shami's actions, Lureya's face showed a Princess Kaguya expression as her mind gradually returned to normal.
Oh lala, turns out he's just a little greenhorn male heir to the throne who got fooled by what I said before. She was quite the little rich lady and would never fall into a situation without money for food.
Little demon king heirs like you, who easily believe what others say, are destined to be outwitted by beautiful elf maidens.
Oh, how adorable~
For the first ti, Lureya felt the thrill of intellectual superiority and even beca cheerful.
Inside the room.
Shami laid out the purchased skewers on a round table and sat on a chair while the Tablet Spirit sat by the bed.
"Shall I start eating?"
"Yeah."
Lureya picked up a skewer gracefully, her white teeth gently biting into a piece of at, savoring it delightfully.
The oil and spices burst into flavor in her mouth, causing the golden-haired elf to involuntarily squint her eyes.
A delicious treat!
"Your hand is trembling."
"It's nothing. Just feeling a bit hypoglycemic from hunger." Lureya slightly cald down her excitent.
What a weak elf...
"Is it tasty?"
"Yeah. It's so aromatic!"
"Then eat more."
"Yeah! I won't hold back~"
Lureya ate five skewers in one go, suddenly paused, and fearfully looked at Shami.
"What's wrong?"
Shami found it odd.
Lureya quickly retreated but found herself on the bed, eventually completely covering herself with the blanket, clutching the corners.
"Am I going to die?"
It's common knowledge that last als are especially lavish. Shami not only treated her to skewers tonight but also spoke with unexpected gentleness, unlike his usual cold deanor, often encouraging her to eat more, seemingly afraid she'd go hungry.
This totally seems like the last supper!
"I really have kept our secret safe. Please don't kill to silence ~"
"Don't think of as so bad. As long as you keep the secret well, why would I suddenly kill you? Do you think disposing of a body is easy?"
Shami retorted, eating a skewer himself to show it was harmless.
The Tablet Spirit hesitated for a mont before sheepishly returning to the edge of the bed, mumbling.
"A girl out there should always be cautious."
"..."
With a sense of caution, he wouldn't be in her room right now.
Lureya quickly returned to the repetitive cycle of devouring skewers.
Seeing it was the right ti, Shami began his questioning.
"Hey, Elf, do you know what the Water of Life is?"
With a bit of grease at the corner of her mouth, Lureya thought for a while before responding.
"The Water of Life? Are you referring to the hot springs deep in the Elf Forest that can significantly restore vitality after soaking? These waters can be purchased from major royal capitals, but once removed from the Elf Forest, the healing effects of the Water of Life greatly diminish, yet it still seems like a highly popular advanced potion in human markets?"
"Also, don't call 'hey!'"
"Not that one. Is there another liquid also called the Water of Life?"
Though the description by the Tablet Spirit was quite close to that of the Water of Life, evidently, the two weren't the sa thing.
"Is there a liquid known as the Water of Life that's good for nurturing life?"
"Good for nurturing life? That touches on my knowledge blind spot."
After devouring more than thirty skewers, Lureya took so pure water from the Storage Space to drink and then comfortably patted her slightly swollen belly.
It's been so long since she felt this satisfied, her stomach warm, all thanks to Shami.
After a bath and a full belly, the next step seed to be turning on the mood lights and moving to a bedroom scene.
No, this isn't a plot with colored thes!
The golden-haired elf's pointed ears reddened subtly as she sneakily observed Shami.
Shami lowered his head, gripping both hands tightly as if enduring sothing.
Reflecting on the nurous books and literature in the library, Lureya soon grasped the situation.
A demon king is a creature with strong desires! According to statistics from the Fata, the previous demon king visited the Succubus Tea House over three thousand tis.
Though Shami wasn't yet a demon king, as a successor he naturally had such desires.
Moreover, with her as a live beauty right before him, her orchid-like light fragrance, the translucent bare feet, and the rare golden hair all emitted incredibly strong allure to the male.
Shami kept his head down, seemingly at the brink of an animalistic breakdown.
Lureya swallowed hard.
No, it can't be happening for real!
Lureya quickly mobilized her spiritual power.
She knew there was no such thing as free barbecue.
Damn! Haven't learned anything yet, wasted a al's worth of skewers.
Shami kept his head down, internally lanting his mistake.
