Chapter 380 Carnival
Baldur's Gate and Eltoril officially established diplomatic relations, and after the canonization ceremony, time also came to the third day today.
This day is a day of carnival. After two days of rest, people can finally forget their sadness temporarily, take out the best food and wine at home, and drink and rejoice with acquaintances on the still dilapidated avenue. Qing, thank the gods.
People really need to vent. The city's repair is destined to be a long project, but a city-wide banquet to celebrate victory can largely dilute the previous sadness.
This dangerous world is never gentle. People are destined to experience a lot of life and death in the process of growing up, a man-made disaster, a natural disaster, a harsh tyrant, a group of wandering bandits, in the forest A monster suddenly rushed out, a giant dragon accidentally passed by in the sky.
Few people experience all of the above, but almost no one can completely avoid them, and experience will make people grow and develop a heart strong enough to adapt to this world.
At this time, Nohir also found a lively open-air tavern and participated in the carnival with his friends.
But during this celebration, he deliberately covered up his original appearance and used the crown's deformation ability to change his image. The reason for this was because of his fame.
After yesterday's canonization ceremony, his fame has spread throughout Eltoril. The sudden increase in fame has added a lot of troubles to him. Many people are deliberately looking for his savior. The hero of the holy city.
Many people wanted to say thank you to him in person. At yesterday's canonization ceremony, Eltoril's high-level representatives told him everything he had done without hiding anything.
Everyone knew about Nohir's feat. Everyone knew that he could have abandoned the entire city because he was lucky enough to escape on the day the city fell. He could have just walked away, but He eventually chose to come back, go to hell, and return with all of them.
If it weren’t for Nohill, they wouldn’t have been able to get rid of that nightmare so quickly. They all knew this, and most people’s hearts were filled with gratitude to him. The specific manifestation was in yesterday’s canonization ceremony. After it was over, he was almost drowned by the surging crowd. In order not to make the same mistake as yesterday, he deliberately changed his image.
At this time, he was sitting at a small table on the street corner with Ska and Karak. People around him were coming and going, but few people turned their eyes to them, because Ska also did the same. camouflage.
Because he presented Eltoril's traditional weapon at the investiture ceremony, and he is a member of the Hell Knights. Although this was not his intention, his reputation did grow due to this. It has become extremely popular. Although it cannot keep up with Nohill, it has reached a point where it is enough to affect travel.
As a last resort, he also put on the disguise prop provided by Nohill, which was the disguise hat captured from Tavis, but Karak didn't have to worry about them.
Because she has no relevant reputation at all, as long as she covers the eye-catching hell engine on her chest that is always transparent, she will naturally not attract too much attention.
"Gudonggudong~Ha! I thought I would never drink this kind of wine again in my life, I want another glass!"
"Ugh~ There is still meat, another plate of barbecue ! ”
“Eat slowly, Karak, there’s still a lot of meat, there’s no need to eat in such a hurry, there’s also a lot of wine, don’t drink too much wine, there’s still a lot of meat. I can’t even eat anymore.”
Ska laughed loudly, then smiled and nodded to Nohill. His mood has been very high since the city returned three days ago. During the banquet, she even drank three large glasses of Barlow's Fire Demon Ale without feeling drunk. Karak was even more exaggerated. Her hands almost never stopped, and she kept stuffing barbecue and bread into her mouth.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu-Do you know what I am living in hell? How bad is the food? The most delicious thing in that damn place is the Abyss Chicken, but it’s so ugly that you could spit out your lunch from three days ago just by looking at it! He swallowed the remaining meat in his mouth, and Nohir, who heard Karak's words, silently put down the mead on his lips, and cast an admiring look at Karak. He, who has many memories of hell, naturally knows about the Abyss Chicken. What kind of creature is it? Karak was right, that thing is really ugly.
“…Have you ever eaten it?”
“Of course I have! It’s ugly, but it’s the only one in hell that I think tastes good. Other foods are even more difficult to swallow, and as long as you don’t think about its original appearance when eating, it will be fine. Just bake it and stuff it into your mouth with your eyes closed.”
Ah, you are right, what a hard life these are.
After hearing Karak's miserable speech, Nohir couldn't help but persuade her not to overeat and finally return to the main material plane, so that she could enjoy herself.
"...Here's to your bravery."
Nohir raised his glass silently.
“Hahaha! Here’s to Karak!”
Karak also laughed and raised his glass, and they drank directly from afternoon to evening. During this period, many interesting things happened, such as Karak suddenly I met Master Jahira who came to look for Nohir. The master received a message from Harsin and wanted to confirm Nohir's safety.
Originally, Nohir did not notify Master Harsin of this trip to hell. In order to prevent him from worrying too much, she had just told him to go to Baldur's Gate to avoid the limelight.
Originally, he did a good job of keeping secret, but the bards who have been coming and leaving in the past few days have gradually spread his deeds throughout the North. Even Harsin has heard about it. about this.
Realizing that his adopted son had been wandering around hell for nearly a month without his knowledge, the master almost had a heart attack from anger, and he immediately activated the departure function on the day he found out about it. The sound transmission stone given to Nohir before.
But Nohir is in the mood of celebrating now, and he has also placed the sound transmission stone in the space box. He cannot sense the sound of the stone being activated at all, so Harsin has to change it. Target, contact him via Master Jaheira Curve.
Afterwards, Nohir silently took out the sound transmission stone and found a secluded and uninhabited place to bow his head and receive the lecture. Karak, on the other hand, had an expression on his face as if he had seen his idol, trembling. She was so excited that she couldn't even speak to ask for Zhang Jahira's autograph.
In this way, everyone had a relatively happy day. When the bright moon was high, the carnival banquet in the city was finally coming to an end. People who still had houses to live in returned to their homes to rest, and the homeless also Tents and sleeping bags are distributed.
Almost no one fell completely drunk, because everyone understood that there would be busier work to do tomorrow, and everyone deliberately controlled their alcohol intake.
Although Nohir didn't have those concerns, he didn't let himself get so drunk that he couldn't even lift his head, so he didn't drink any high-alcohol wine during the banquet, but it didn't make any sense. After all, with his current physique, there is no wine in the world that can make him drunk.
