Chapter 139 – 133 Unrequited Love
“Wow, that’s Tijana,” said the Halfling who had been nervous all along, finally relaxing, “Although she looks fierce, I’m pretty sure she enjoyed the dinner.”
“It’s easy to tell,” Bruto observed the piles of empty plates in front of him, “She almost ate a third of it by herself. Isn’t her stomach bursting?”
“Sister Tijana is actually not fierce at all,” Isabella whispered in defense of the Succubus Lord.
“Food disappears into a demon’s stomach as if it goes directly to the core of the Abyss through a portal. Researchers have always suspected that there’s a portal going straight to the core of the Abyss inside their stomachs,” Kalalin said with a smile, “But this really was a fantastic dinner, Koula, thank you.”
“You must not have had enough,” the Halfling jumped up from his chair, “Don’t worry, I still have dessert here. Who wants a couple of flowing heart tarts?”
“Me!”
Everyone spoke up simultaneously, except for a certain distracted knight and his jawbone-leaking skeletal servant.
“I need to figure out a way to get a body soon,” Eckmond lamented, watching others, “Eating seems like such a fun, meaningless activity.”
“These cookies are fantastic,” Bruto almost instantly ate his share, “Lance, if you’re not planning on eating yours, it’s going to be mine, okay?”
“Are you okay?” Alamir looked at Lancelot with some concern, “Still worried about the revenge of the demon that Tijana mentioned?”
“He’s probably thinking about Tijana herself,” Bruto crossed his arms and sighed, “I just can’t appreciate those types without beards.”
“Lancelot? Tijana?” The Elf looked quite shocked, then suddenly his expression turned a bit strange, “Is that why the Succubus Lord suddenly visited? How far has their relationship progressed?”
Listen to the true voice of your heart, be honest with yourself, and then you can be honest with her, which is essential for true love.”
“But what if demons are incapable of feeling love?” Lancelot’s voice sounded somewhat desperate, “Does that mean any effort is in vain?”
“The power of true love is beyond your imagination,” the Elf’s expression was very calm, but these words were indeed at the core of Shuni Priest’s beliefs, “Such feelings can arise in the hearts of any intelligent race, a power capable of contending with any magic or Divine Power.”
Your journey continues on empire
“I hope so,” Lancelot sighed, his expression appeared much more relaxed, “but Kalalin is right, so far it has been unrequited love, and even if a demon’s heart could be ignited by the flames of love, it would certainly require a tremendous amount of effort.”
“Maybe it’s not as hard as you think,” Alamir raised an eyebrow, “She’s already come to your house and had dinner with you. And with Koula around, she’s bound to come again.”
“Should I start planning the wedding menu right now?” Koula suddenly spoke up, making everyone laugh, and the previously somewhat oppressive atmosphere was swept away.
“All right, let’s talk about distributing the loot,” Lancelot’s expression became serious again, “I believe that what will bind our team together in the future is not the spoils obtained in adventures, but I’m also aware that unfair distribution can turn even the closest comrades against each other.”
Everyone nodded in agreement, and so Lancelot continued.
“Here’s my proposal for the distribution of the loot.
All monetary gains are to be evenly distributed, and the acquired equipment will be distributed as needed, and if one day you no longer need it, the income from selling it will also be shared equally,” Lancelot looked at Elf Priest, “Alamir, I know your fondness for these artworks, you can own them before we sell them, but once sold, the money obtained will also be evenly distributed among everyone.”
“No problem,” the Elf Priest nodded, “I will use them to decorate this house, the beauty of art should be appreciated by everyone, I have no intention of monopolizing these exquisite creations.”
