Chapter 888: Chapter 47: Co, hit !
Nightfall, wilderness.
A towering altar constructed of branches stands resolutely, as the mbers of the caravan move the last of their companion’s bodies onto it, followed by dousing it with kerosene.
“You do it.” The old wizard Gandalf handed the torch in his hand to Belldandy.
In the absence of the Temple Priest, Belldandy would reluctantly take over the responsibility of lighting the pyre for the funeral.
Belldandy did not refuse, gracefully receiving the torch and began to chant ancient eulogies facing the altar.
As the ceremony proceeded, she raised her hand and threw the torch into the pyre.
The branches, soaked in kerosene, ignited instantly, and the fierce flas quickly engulfed the body placed within.
“We co from the land of ice and snow
From the midnight sun and the hot springs’ flow
Hamr of the Gods will drive our ships to new lands
To fight the tribe and sing and cry Valhalla
Heroic Spirit Hall, the abode of Gods
I am coming!”
The robust and deep singing echoed through the wilderness, as the caravan mbers bade their final farewell to their fallen companion, conveying their best wishes.
Once the morial ended, a celebration of survival from disaster ensued.
After all, wine and fine food are often the best comfort to sorrow.
Watching the caravan mbers quickly shake off their grief, gathering to chat rrily, drinking heartily and feasting on at, Luo En couldn’t help but admire the resilience of humans when faced with adversity.
“Do you want so too? Apple cider from the Guild, very popular.” Gandalf threw over a sheepskin wine flask with a smile, extending a warm invitation to Luo En.
“It’s that famous? Then I must give it a try.” Luo En nodded happily, catching the flask.
Pulling out the wooden stopper, the crisp and fresh scent of green apples wafted out, mixed with rich floral and honey aromas, transporting one to an orchard lush with verdure, lifting one’s spirits.
With a tentative sip, the flavor was smooth and exquisite, mildly sweet with a slight tartness and no astringency, leaving a taste of botanical essences. The alcohol content was not high, probably around 5 degrees – very suitable for won and mixing cocktails.
“Not bad at all.”
As the God of Wine, Luo En gave an “excellent” rating.
“Of course! The apple cider recipe was personally experinted on by the Guild President, how could it be anything but exceptional?” Gandalf replied with a smile.
Luo En couldn’t help but chuckle in response.
That girl Heluo really had a thing for apples, even managing to co up with a new apple-flavored wine.
Just as Luo En and Gandalf, the young and old, sat conversing by the fire, noise ca from the left side.
Celebrian and Xili had tead up to tackle Rose to the ground, each holding down one of her arms to prevent her from struggling.
The Spider Goddess at the mont had a flushed face, reeking of alcohol, and her elf-style blouse was slightly torn.
Clearly, after a few cups of apple cider, Rose’s old habits were resurfacing.
Fortunately, Celebrian and Xili were watching her, otherwise, she might very well have attempted to streak naked in public.
However, with their limited strength, they couldn’t suppress Rose, a deity, for long.
Seeing Celebrian and Xili about to be flung aside, Luo En stepped forward swiftly and struck Rose cleanly with a hand chop, knocking the drunken deity unconscious.
Without needing any further instructions, Celebrian and Xili efficiently carried Rose back to the tent.
After settling her down, as they were about to leave, the Guild official nad “Belle” entered:
“How’s your friend? Is she feeling unwell?”
Perhaps because they had been tornted by Rose recently, or maybe because Miss Belle was just too congenial, Xili, straightforward as always, snorted:
“She’s perfectly healthy, more energetic than and Celebrian, she’s just sick in the head!”
“ntally?”
Belldandy thought for a mont, then earnestly suggested,
“I’ve learned so herbal knowledge and Said Witchcraft, why not let take a look? Maybe I could help.”
“Sure, sure!”
Xili nodded eagerly, pulling Belldandy over to Rose’s bed, excitedly urging,
“Quick, treat her head! You have no idea, we’ve been driven almost insane by her!”
Is it that easy?
Luo En couldn’t help but smile wryly and shook his head internally.
Along the way, he had not avoided treating Rose but to no effect.
Although dicine was not his specialty, with his vast experience and formidable strength, his level of expertise far surpassed that of ordinary priests and physicians.
How could they just randomly stumble upon a physician who could treat Rose?
Moreover, what was wrong with Rose’s mind was among the most troubleso…
“Her soul seems to be split?” Belldandy murmured softly to herself after concluding her examination.
Luo En was taken aback, looking at Miss Belle from the human caravan with so surprise.
This woman, she had sothing special.
At that mont, Celebrian also stepped forward to inquire earnestly:
“Can she be cured?”
“I don’t know, but I can try.”
Belldandy responded with sincere honesty.
Given the answer, Celebrian and Xili couldn’t help but simultaneously turn their heads to look at Luo En, waiting for the team leader to decide.
Luo En did not hesitate, nodding in agreent: “Then please, Miss Belle.”
After all, Rose was already troubleso; how much worse could the treatnt make it?
Furthermore, he was curious to see if Miss Belle really had any expertise.
“I’ll do my best!” Belldandy accepted the task, imdiately adopting a serious and composed posture.
