Chapter 30 Farewell Blessings
The Third Age, 1686, the end of the year of flame.
The newly established Frost Rose United of the Seven Kingdoms of Xuehua sent troops northward. The New Velga Alliance stopped the other party on the grounds that the other party had broken the agreement without any statement. At the same time, it asked for help from the allies, Hinamo Parliament and the United Kingdom of Cranberry.
The supportive Divine Wing Bird troops crossed the South Ocean to a branch of the Sigh Mountains, and at the city of Jiansong, they defeated the Golem of Frost Rose and destroyed the fleet heading north. At this point, Frost Rose's offensive was a halt, and the conflict between the two sides escalated again.
At the same time, the Falcon Kingdom on the west side of the New Verga Alliance, which is the southwest of Crancia, announced that it would join the Frost Rose Union. The Black Rock Duke in the north was in chaos, and the "Long-Salutes" besieged the capital of the Duchy, and the "Bow Hunting" guarded the city on the Montenegro, and the two sides were in a stalemate. In the country of the Holy Land, after the death of the former Pope, the position of the New Pope was always on hold, and the factions of various parties were surging.
Faced with the chaos of the seven kingdoms of Xuehua, the Cangcui Empire ignored it, and the imperial capital began to prepare for the Prince's wedding and planned the venue. It is expected that the preparation will be completed in one year.
The endless sea storms increased, and the routes to the Oriental Praise Dynasty gradually decreased due to its influence. At the same time, the Praise Dynasty no longer sent a triennial group of messengers to visit the Southern Islands. The ships to sea also gradually decreased under the dynasty's ban.

Emenas, Temple Academy.
There is now an additional guest in the hut where Roxier lives, who is her friend, the half-elf girl Frosia.
"How long will this be cooked, Roshier?"
Frosia stood in the kitchen wearing an apron, gently stirring the white soup in the pot with the spoon in her hand. Although the flames below licked at the bottom of the casserole, the potatoes, chicken nuggets, mushrooms, etc. in the pot kept rolling, emitting bursts of fragrance.
"It's about 20 minutes."
The girl guessed that she actually couldn't record the time. She looked cooked and delicious, and she could eat it.
In the room next to the kitchen, Roxier was wearing a white winter skirt and was writing a form. Looking at the booklet, it should be almost finished.
These are the matters that the chief wants to arrange. She is going to Clancia next year, so these must be done in advance.
Huh, I finally finished writing, now I can have a good rest.
Lorran Hill raised his head, put the pen aside, then put the booklet away, turned around and went to the kitchen to see how Frosy's rice was cooking.
After moving in with me recently, the eldest lady of the Landsworth family has no other servant clothes and doesn't want to keep asking her to cook, so she volunteered to learn how to cook.
In many stories, it always says that someone doesn’t know how to cook and there will be some dark food, which makes it cute. But Lolan Hill thinks that this must be exaggerated. Maybe it won’t be possible at first. After experimenting a few times, it won’t be said that the cooking tastes good, but it’s OK to cook it.
Besides, if you don’t decide to boil it in water when something happens, she teaches Frosia to start with the simplest soup.
Just wash the food, cut it into pieces, put it in a pot, and add water to heat it. There is nothing simpler than this.
"let me see."
She opened the lid of the pot and saw that the boiling soup was almost out of the pot.
"Why are you putting so much water?" Lorran Hill looked at the Landsworths lady on the side. The blonde lady was a little at a loss.
"But, isn't it better to put more water? This will not burn it dry and it will completely flood the food."
Well, this guy and Keti are two extremes.
Keti likes to heat the bottom of the pan with flames. In her own words, it is like heating the food with her hands, which is particularly interesting, but the consequence is that the heat is too strong, and it is often burned into black charcoal or boiled the pan dry.
"Although this is true, the taste will be diluted by the soup and not rich enough." Lorran Hill took a spoon from Frosia's hand, scooped out some excess soup, poured it into the pool beside it, then tasted the salty and continued to add some seasonings.
Looking at Lorran Hill's skillful and serious appearance, Frosia admired her very much. This is how people are. If someone is good at things they are not good at, they will always feel a little respect.
"That's fine, wait a little while." After the lid was closed, the two of them returned to the lobby beside them.
At this time, the season was already winter in Emmenas, and snow was quietly floating outside the window, and some snow was piled up on the windowsill, condensing lightly on the corners of the lattice window.
The air is much colder than before, and the staff or students on the street have changed into thicker clothes.
Although extraordinary people can use magic to keep warm, they are more troublesome after all. It is better to wear more thick clothes, which is more comfortable.
After returning to the hall, Lorran Hill used tongs to pick up a little firewood, put it in the fireplace, and added fuel to it, and sat with Frosia on a chair next to the fireplace.
The sky is a little dark in winter, and the fireplace inside reflects a light red flame in the room. As the flames burn, the temperature in the room slowly rises.
"How did Frothy spend the winter at home?" Lorran Hill asked the girl beside her.
"It seems to be similar to usual, and the house is quite warm no matter where you are."
Well, it seems that he asked a worthless question, Lorran Hill thought. With Frosia's family background, the environment for growing up should be extremely luxurious.
"If Frosia doesn't marry the prince, what kind of family background can she marry you?"
Frosia's face turned red by the fire, and she thought for a while before answering.
"According to my aunt or other elders, I usually marry into the Earl's family, or a viscount family with more potential and excellent potential. However, there are also elders who are not married. They are not bad in their own strength and live alone is easy."
"I originally thought I would go on this path, too..." She stared at Luhuo in a daze.
"If Frosia doesn't want to get married, I can think of a way."
Maybe it was because I was a little reluctant. Lolan Hill didn't want to see this friend enter a forced marriage. The society in my previous life always advocated the sacredness and freedom of marriage. Although I sometimes didn't catch a cold, some ideas were gradually popularized into everyone's heart, which is also one of the most basic choices for people.
"No need, it's not good to involve you." Frosia shook her head. The people and things involved in this matter are not simple, and it is not something that the girl next to her can solve. It's too dangerous to involve her.
"Then I'll give you a gift."
Lorran Hill took out a velvet box from the cabinet beside it.
When I opened the box, I exposed a delicate light golden pendant. The pendant was as transparent as crystal, and there was a little liquid rippling in it. Under the reflection of the fire, this little liquid reflected a slight colorful starlight, which was very beautiful.
"If you want to leave one day, drink the liquid inside. The liquid inside will make you extremely lucky in one day and everything goes well."
"Just treat it as a blessing before parting."
