For the melon-eating people in Merova City, Master Ackerman was too low-key during the New Year.
The reporters waiting for the big news outside the villa were even more disappointed. They had been waiting for him to cause trouble, quarrel with others, and fight with the southern nobles. As a result, he went into seclusion to practice hard...
While Ren was in a coma, King Daimao announced that he was practicing in seclusion.
You are still cultivating during the Chinese New Year, why don’t you go to heaven? Although some people talk like this, they are only a minority after all.
In fact, everyone is very busy during the New Year, and they won’t always pay attention to Ren’s movements.
In addition, the news was blocked in the 7th game. Not many people knew that he was paralyzed by the projection of the Nightmare Lord and almost became a vegetative state.
Of course, some of Ren's friends and partners, such as Leon, Lao Goat, and the alien woman Candice, noticed something was wrong.
They came to the villa to look for him, but they were ignored by King Da Mao.
The sudden appearance of the Dark Lord's projection was also suppressed to a minimum in the 7th round. The effect was very good and did not cause panic.
At least the citizens had a happy New Year.
In the early morning, there was a hazy mist in the courtyard. The temperature in the Merova City area had been a bit low recently, and a thin layer of frost was sprinkled on the leaves of the green branches of the lawn.
Renn woke up very early, after all, he had been lying down enough recently.
Wow~
On the balcony covered with white tiles, he was washing clothes. He turned on the faucet and a refreshing splash of cold water flowed into the laundry pool.
Because he had been lying dead recently, Renn naturally did not call his men and maids back to work, but he allowed them to have a good year.
Valkyrie wasn't here either, so he had to do his own laundry.
Fortunately, there weren't many clothes, just his own and Artoria's.
His own clothes were washed quickly, and Renn also washed several of King Da Mao's long waisted dresses, and then took out a white lace bra from the wooden bucket of clothes.
Looking at the girl's small and exquisite underwear, Ren shook his head:
"It's so pitiful. There's only a pair of Aces on a flat plain."
After mocking Artoria's barren airport, he prepared to continue washing clothes.
There is nothing to be embarrassed about. He has washed the girl's clothes not once or twice. After all, Kesha moved out of the villa long ago, and he has been doing all kinds of housework.
However, today was a little different from the past. At this time, King Da Mao ran over in a panic after finishing breakfast.
She took back her underwear and pushed him away, her face flushed: "Well... Ren, I can just wash my clothes by myself from now on, you don't have to help me anymore."
Huh?
The sun is rising in the west, but she didn't know how to do any housework before.
Looking at Artoria who looked a little embarrassed and shy, Ren raised his eyebrows, slightly surprised:
"Girl, are you embarrassed? That's strange, huh, but it would be great if someone helps me with the housework... Please help me with my laundry in the future."
He is much thicker-skinned and doesn't mind throwing all his clothes for her to wash.
"I know! Get out!" The girl blushed, pushed his back with her hands, and pushed him off the balcony.
"By the way, do you really know how to wash clothes? Remember, my expensive suit needs to be washed with neutral washing powder...after drying it, you'd better remember to wash it with the Holy Light."
"I know, I don't just take classes, memorize and take exams in school... Misha taught me how to wash clothes!"
Hey, the aura of a top student came to my face.
Looking at the girl who closed the balcony door and washed her clothes a little clumsily and unfamiliarly, Ren laughed dumbly, picked up the broom, and began to clean the huge living room.
The stupid king was not like this before.
When he first came to this world, because they lived under the same roof, the girl sometimes even changed her clothes in front of him.
Although she was not naked, she was stripped down to her underwear. Then she put on a new coat in the living room and went out without shying away from him at all.
Ren En had never spied on King Da Mao, or had any dirty intentions to take advantage of her, but she couldn't help but generously give him benefits.
At that time, maybe because she was used to being a man, she didn't feel very shy, and she didn't have any embarrassment about Ren doing her laundry.
But now...
"The Quilt King doesn't understand people's hearts?"
Using a broom to clean the floor, Ren muttered.
What is most likely to influence a person is not famous sayings or instructive teachings, but the environment.
While attending Melova University, Artoria appeared to everyone as a woman.
No one knows her past, nor does she know that she has been active as a man; no one knows that she is a battle-hardened knight king with countless honors; and no one knows what she has been burdened with...
Roommates, classmates, teachers... everyone around her, they all treated her as a girl.
At most, she is a girl who studies hard, looks sweet, and is a bit taciturn, that's all.
“It had been unoccupied for a while and there was dust everywhere in the house.”
Ren quickly finished cleaning the second floor and followed the stairs to the first floor.
Since he had been lying dead these days, Arturia basically stayed at Wilson Manor, chatting with Lucy or guarding him, so the house was a little dirty.
squeak~
After sweeping the living room, he pushed the door open and entered the girl's room.
The decoration inside has been changed, and the familiar fragrance lingers in the air.
The first thing that catches the eye is a large horizontal red rosewood bed with a tampon mattress, pink roses embroidered on the sheets, and a pink quilt.
There is also a golden stuffed lion toy beside the bed.
There is a half-length mirror hanging on the wall to the left of the bed. Under the mirror is a dressing table with combs, perfume, lipstick, etc. placed on it.
There is a blind on the right side of the bed, and there is a small mahogany-colored wardrobe in the corner. There are many red heart or flower-shaped colored paper patterns on the wall, and several landscape paintings are hung...
It can be said that the atmosphere is very warm, like a lady's room.
Looking at the decoration in the boudoir, Ren sighed softly.
At the beginning, this room was not like this. The initial layout was almost the same as his room...
He watched the girl decorate it like this step by step. Of course, he also had some credit for it.
Pa~
Reaching out and patting the head of the cute golden-furred lion beside the bed, Ren couldn't help but smile:
"Little lion, have some fun. You often sleep with the King of Knights. This makes many kings and chefs feel separated."
This toy lion was given to Artoria by him.
Those perfumes, lipsticks and other cosmetics were actually bought by him. They were placed in the living room without anyone paying attention to them at first, and then the girl took them one by one into the boudoir.
After stretching, Ren picked up a stack of photos on the table, fell back, and lay on his back on the girl's bed.
The top one is a stack of black and white photos. The girl is wearing a college student's uniform and skirt, looking very young and beautiful.
They were mainly group photos of Arturia, her roommate Misha, and some female classmates. The backgrounds were basically various buildings in the university. There were also a few pictures taken in the White Sands Military Camp, or of the entire class.
There are also some color photos inside.
There is no color camera in this world, so these photos are from the moon world.
For example, there is a photo of Irisviel affectionately hugging King Da Mao from behind. The background is under the ancient castle of the Einzbern family. The dusk sunlight is pouring down gently, and the two people's smiles are so bright.
This is a photo taken by Renne, and there are several others like it.
There is another photo that is quite special. The background is in the courtyard of Ryudōji Temple. It is a photo of Ren, Artoria, and Emiya Kiritsugu sitting around a barbecue stall and having lunch together on the eve of the final battle.
This is a photo taken with the help of Matou Kariya, and it is also the only photo taken between King Daimao and Kiritsugu.
"Kiritsugu, I think I kind of understand why you feel so angry that you are so indifferent to her.
The rise and fall of the country rested on her shoulders, depriving her of all the happiness as a girl, and even forced her to suppress her nature, turning into a monster who 'doesn't understand people's hearts' and desperately trying to maintain the country's existence. King, the tireless machine...
I also feel like I can’t stand it now. "
Looking through the photos, Ren muttered to himself.
Color becomes black and white, there becomes here.
But for Artoria, her smile became more and more vivid, and even black and white could not hide the more and more moving colors in her smile.
"Hmph, Renn, you rush into a girl's boudoir without saying hello. This is not what a gentleman would do."
King Daimao crossed his arms and was standing by the door at some point.
"I'm tired of cleaning, so I'm just going to lie down for a while. Besides, I climbed into the King of Knights' bed. It's so honorable to be blown away." Ren said with a playful smile.
This is not nonsense. If those royal chefs or other knights of the Round Table heard this, such as the Yangtze River Knights, they would not suffer from cerebral hemorrhage, and they might become crazy orchids...
"Get out, don't lie here!"
She picked up the stuffed lion on the bed and hit Ren on the head several times. Arturia grabbed his hand and pushed it out of the room.
She also discovered that she had not paid much attention to it before and had inadvertently given a lot of benefits to Ren.
"Okay, let's get down to business. You still have a few days until school starts. In the past few days, I will announce that I have prepared the necessary resources to help you advance to the fourth level."
Renn stopped talking nonsense and was ready to talk about this year.
"That's it. It's a bit uncomfortable to keep suppressing your strength and condensing your breath."
The girl's eyes lit up. In this way, she could show her strength openly.
In fact, as long as the prototype of the domain is not opened, the master and the temple are both at the fourth level, and there is no absolute essential difference.
And after a while, giving the world a little time to buffer, the prototype of the domain will be revealed, and in this way, she will be completely integrated into the main world.
Otherwise, high-level transcendent beings are no longer just cabbage, and it would be too strange for a Templar to suddenly appear.
"I think Sister Lucy already knows about this."
Thinking of Saint Lucy's admiration for her, the girl sighed.
Her disguise is actually perfect. The "light of the soul" can interfere with perception, block mental detection, and isolate her own breath... Even a saint will be deceived if he doesn't investigate carefully.
But no matter how much Lucy admired her, she couldn't be so passionate about a "third-level paladin". She must have discovered a clue.
"She should have noticed it, but it doesn't matter. She is not the kind of person who likes to talk nonsense... To be honest, it is also a matter of strength. Soon we will be strong enough to not be afraid of the trouble caused by confusing identities."
Ren said calmly.
So what if the origin is unknown. Without any clues, there is no way to guess. The most others can do is try it out.
Besides, he got some shocking news from the witch Josephina.
This world seems to be a transit station, or it is located at a special time and space node, connecting many strange worlds... "outsiders" may not be particularly unusual.
At least, for this multidimensional universe, the current main world is a transit station, or a stepping stone.
For example, the demon, Asmodeus, the dark lord of the Dark Clan, is an outsider, suspected of coming from a place called the Multiple Abyss...
This is a secret that Renn learned after reading the secret information of the Witcher Association after becoming the vice president of the branch.
Scholars from the natural school also say that demons are not creatures of this world, at least not entirely.
"That's right, it's important to improve your strength!"
The girl clenched her fists and said energetically.
"Well, then I'll make arrangements."
Renn put on his suit jacket and tie, preparing to be interviewed by reporters stationed outside the villa.
It was time to release some more explosive news. After receiving the assurance from Lucy, a level 25 singer, that at least he would be protected in Melova City, he decided to play a bigger game.
King Da Mao watched him go out. In fact, she had just heard what he said. She knew what he meant and said to herself:
"Ren, my friend, my knight, my family, I will never give up, but this time, I will not run away from myself!
I want to do it all over again, learn lessons and absorb the wisdom of different worlds...as a woman, use my own efforts and the sword in my hand to open the way! "
This time, the girl will no longer place her hopes on things like the Holy Grail, nor will she suppress her emotions.
She wants to welcome Britain's new life with a new attitude.
………
Outside the villa, the sunshine has dispelled the fog, the dewdrops on the grass are crystal clear, and the camera flashes are constantly flashing.
As soon as Master Ren went out, he was surrounded by more than twenty reporters who had been squatting.
This proves that he is still popular, at least in this city, his every move attracts attention.
A reporter in a suit stepped forward first:
"Mr. Ackerman, what do you think about the recent tactful conveyance of Earl Ange's intention of reconciliation to the indigenous Kangao people?"
How do I see it? Of course I stand and look at the building... Renn sneered.
Looking at the somewhat excited expressions of the reporters, he certainly knew that the reason why they were staying here was because many people in the kingdom were paying attention to this matter and it was of high news value.
Ren coughed lightly:
"There is no doubt that this is a victory for justice, a new benchmark for freedom, and Farrowland has once again become an example for all nations.
The heroic sacrifice of Zashi (the native who gave a speech with Ren's version of "I Have a Dream") is meaningful. The Kangao people's fearless struggle for their compatriots and for human rights equality is worthy of admiration!
As for Earl Ange, haha, he bullies the weak and fears the strong, has no way to teach his children, and is sanctimonious... This kind of scum is a waste of air and food, so let's not mention it. "
As soon as he opened his mouth, Ren continued to spit out the fragrance, spraying his opponent unceremoniously, adding salt to Count Ange's wounds.
Sure enough, the fighting started again.
This made the reporters extremely happy, and they hurriedly recorded these words in their notebooks. They like Master Ackerman to criticize others, so that they have news to write about.
Reporter A: "Master Ackerman, what do you think of the rise in the power ranking of the Kingdom of Falorland among the countries on the mainland?"
Not long ago, on the ranking list, the comprehensive national strength of the Kingdom of Falorland rose from 9th to 7th, which was one of the hot topics.
Wren: "It's a great honor to be a Farollian."
This answer was quite satisfactory, and everyone was a little disappointed.
Reporter B immediately squeezed over:
"You were successfully selected in the latest mainland youth rankings, and entered the top 20 for the first time, ranking 17th, which shocked the countries.
Please tell me, what do you think about this? Excited? pride? Or an honor? "
Renn: "It's not bad. I originally thought I could be in the top ten, but it turned out that I was only 17th, which made me a little disappointed."
Reporters: "..."
What a big statement. This is a list selected by the authoritative newspaper "Mainland Observer" and includes all young and powerful people under the age of 40 in the entire continent.
We only review the top 50, so you can imagine how fierce the competition is.
Any young extraordinary person who can be on the list is the proud son of all countries, and countless forces are competing to win over him.
Reporter C: “After you were listed on the list, the news greatly inspired the young generation of the Kingdom of Falorland. Now, many young people in the Kingdom regard you as a role model.
It is said that many young talents who have been low-key before also hope to imitate you and become famous all over the world... What do you have to say to them here? "
Renn: "Young men, practice honestly and don't think too much. Just because I'm on the list doesn't mean you can too."
Reporters: "..."
Reporter B: “You don’t think highly of them?”
Renn said seriously: "No, no, hard work is worthy of recognition, because many times you don't know what despair means if you don't work hard."
Reporter B: “…”
No wonder many colleagues say that Master Ackerman is simply poisonous.
Reporter Ding: "Two days ago, Prince Roan stopped the Valkyrie Keisha on the streets of the capital of the Nokman Empire and proposed to her in public... After the failure, he still threatened that he would never give up.
The prince also said that he was willing to drink the Valkyrie's bath water like you. He also said that he was not as timid as Master Ackerman, who only dared to talk.
Moreover, he also warned you from a distance, saying that the Valkyrie is his, and if you dare to continue to compete with him, he will kill you! "
Shall I wipe it?
Is there such a thing?
Do you really think I can’t lift the knife?
Renn narrowed his eyes subconsciously. Only those who are familiar with him know that he is really angry.
Someone proposed to his woman, which already made him feel tired, let alone...
Seeing the probing and unconcerned looks of many reporters, Renne snorted coldly:
"Just write it like this, Merova City, in the middle of Crescent Moon Street, on one side of the corner, next to the sycamore tree..."
"What?"
Some reporters didn't react for a while.
Renn: "This is the specific address of my home. You can tell the prince that I live here...
Then, let him roll over in a round shape. The toad still wants to eat the swan meat, so I don’t mind blowing his head off first! "
"..."
Beauty is a disaster, this is a conflict, the reporters suddenly became excited.
They were about to get jealous and fight... They knew that Master Ackerman, who had always considered himself the strongest licker of the Valkyrie, would definitely fight back viciously.
The interview was conducted in an orderly manner.
Then, Ren announced in a high-profile manner that he had raised a set of resources and was about to help his cousin Kate advance to the fourth level.
The reporters were overjoyed because this was news even if it wasn't big or small.
Another high-level transcendent is about to be born.
As long as a master is not wanted by the kingdom, he can easily obtain a knighthood. Although it is a palace title and does not have land, he still enjoys the treatment of ordinary nobles.
………
In the following days, when these interviews about Renne were published in the newspapers, as expected, they caused an uproar.
He recently ranked 17th on the Mainland Young Power Rankings, which has aroused widespread public attention.
In this interview, he was very arrogant and arrogant.
This series of high-profile performances, and even those high-profile remarks that were a bit abnormal and irrational, unsurprisingly pushed Rennes to the forefront again.
However, this is exactly what he wanted.
[The time left to open the copy task: 70 days. 】
Delay as long as possible, as long as it lasts for a few months. Whether it is the consequences of inappropriate remarks or the threat of the ghoul clan, he is sure to deal with it...
