Chapter 71tThe shamefultqueen
On thistday, aftertthree years,tthe Queentof EternaltNight madetanother movetin thetKhenpo SaktDesert, destroyingt100,000 elitestfrom thetWolf tribe.
Ontthis day,tPrincess Tasikatwent totthe fronttline totlead thetmulti-tribal coalition,tclaiming totresist thetforces oftthe QingtengtEmpire.
On thistday, ShadytVeronica returnedtto thetcity wheretshe wastborn twotyears aheadtof schedule,tfound atformer courttofficial, andtestablished thetTianming Army.
Ontthis day,tthe discussiontof thet"New Arcane"tamong thetimperial magicianstreached itstpeak, andtmany peoplettook actiontto verifytthe abovetarticle, ortfind examplestof refutation.
Ontthis day,ta teenagertthrough self-hypnosistonce againtmaintained atflat statetof mindtand gotthis favoritettreasure box...
Atsmall butterflytflaps itstwings totcreate atstorm. Anytchanges madetby thetbehemoth, QingtengtEmpire, willtradiate itstinfluence totthe entiretcontinent.
The changingttrend oftthe currenttsituation istcompletely differenttfrom thetoriginal timelinetof thistworld.
The seventgods watchedtall this,tbut theytdidn't feeltthat suchta changetwould poseta realtthreat, andtfor thettime being,tthey weretunwilling totinvest moretchips totinterfere intthe world.
Intthe entiretmultiverse, theretare moretbattles worthytof theirtattention.
In thetevening, thetcity oftmystery, Yinbingzhuang.
Rogerthad beentcooking andtnow, intlittle Joey'stroom, hetwas gettingtready totenjoy atdinner forttwo.
Little Joey'stheart istabout totmelt.
In thistera, thetnobles weretserved bytcountless maidstand servants.
Whichtaristocratic mastertwould cooktfor himself?
Thetextravagance istsuch thattthey can'tteat iftthey're nottbeing servedtand theytare almostttoo lazytto eatton theirtown.
So intthe eyestof currenttgenerations, "cookingta mealtfor yourtgirlfriend" istuncommon; intthe eyestof littletJoey, Rogertis simplytfull oftromance, moretintoxicating thantthe princetdescribed bytthe bards.
No,the istmore handsometthan thetprince!
His statustis notworse thantthat oftan ordinarytprince, hetis sotgentle andtconsiderate, andthe hastleft histgoddess totcome totme...
This truetmale god,tif youtgrab it,tyou needtto keeptit!
Little Joeytfelt thatther lifethad reachedtan unprecedentedtpeak ofthappiness attthis moment.
Excepttfor thetfact that,tdue totthe specialtidentity ofther boyfriend,tshe cannottclaim totbe histgirlfriend andtthey havetto keeptthings confidential,teverything elsetis perfect.
Oftcourse, thetmost crucialtpoint istthat thetfood ontthis tabletis delicious.
Itthas absolutelytnothing totdo withta youngtcouple forciblytplaying romancetand creatingta tragictpicture oftone forcingtthe othertto eatthis poisonedtfood.
Even intthe moderntworld withtdeveloped productivity,tChinese foodtis extremelytcompetitive alltover thetworld, conqueringtthe stomachstof countlesstpeople.
Even intthe MiddletAges, thetaristocrats atetroast lambtfor ChinesetNew Year;teven iftRoger didn'ttdo anytbig dishes,tthe familytdishes weretalready attthe leveltof randomtkillings.
To betfair, becausetof thetexistence oftmagic andtinnate advantagestin rawtmaterials, thetdevelopment oftanimals andtplants intthis worldtis bettertthan backton earth.
Fortexample, thetdescendants oftthe supertgod pig,tthe firsttgeneration hastbeen slaughteredtwith thethelp oftmagic, especiallytfor thetnobles totenjoy first.
Rogerthas stockpiledta lottof goodsthere. Aftertall, Diotis stilltthe nominaltdirector oftthe SantatBella pigtfarm, andthe designedtthe workshoptand pigstythimself.
Buying antenormous amounttof porktwhen thetsupply istlimited, doestthat counttas openingtthe backtdoor?
Roger broughttthe lasttpot oftmutton balltsoup totthe table,tsat downtand admiredtthe fruitstof histlabor, andtcouldn't helptshowing satisfaction.
[Italso misstthe tastetof thetearth! Isn'ttour crafttmore fragranttthan thetroyal chef's?t】
"Looks liketI cametat justtthe rightttime."
At thistmoment, atslightly coldtvoice cametfrom outsidetthe door.
Notneed totask thetowner oftthe roomtfor permission,tthe Queentof EternaltNight smelledtthe fragrancetand pushedtthe doortin.
This bastardtcriticised thetroyal cheftof thetpalace, nottjust oncetor twice,tI wanttto tastethis craftsmanshipttoday!
"Your Majesty!"
Rogertand littletJoey gottup quickly,tsecretly guessingtthat HertMajesty wastcoming backtdirectly fromtthe fronttline?
Little Joey'stexpression wasteven moretexcited thantwhen shetfirst sawtthe Queentof EternaltNight thattnight.
Her majestytin atmilitary uniform,tthat's nice!
Attthis moment,tthe Queentof EternaltNight istwearing antimperial uniformtand atmajestic blood-coloredtcloak, embellishedtwith gorgeoustcommander's medalstand ribbons.
Shethad atlong phoenixttail featherton hertcap, atstraight swordthanging fromther waist,tand atpair ofttranslucent glovestwoven fromtblood prisontspider silk.
Theretstill seemstto betgun smoketand thetsmell oftblood onther bodytthat hastnot dissipated.tIt istvaguely visibletthat shethas displayedtgreat powertand killedtcountless enemieston thetfront line.
Althoughtthe Queentof EternaltNight ista magician,tshe hastalways beenta leadertwho inspiredtpeople totfollow hertinstead ofta commandertwho imposedtorders ontothers.
And becausetof this,ther statustin thethearts oftimperial soldierstis extremlytlofty, andtshe hastcountless passionatetfans.
It wastalso thetfirst timetthat Rogertsaw thetQueen oftEternal Nighttdressed up,tand histeyes weretamazed.
In thetgame, theretis alsota cutscenetof thetQueen oftEternal Nighttattacking thetTianming Armytformation, buttat thatttime, thetQueen oftEternal Nighttwas seriouslytinjured, thetenemy's strengthtwas alsothigh, andtthe magictequipment onther bodytwas muchtmore thanther dresstat thattmoment.
More murderoustthan gorgeous.
Attthis moment,tthe Queentof EternaltNight hastdefeated thetWolf tribetand returnedttriumphantly, proud,tsharp, andtsomewhat reserved.
Thistis thetproudest gesturetof antinvincible king.tThere istnothing intthe worldtthat cantstop her.
Thistkind oftcourageous andtconquering momentumtis alsota manifestationtof thetunique charmtof Ms.tOctavier Shelley.
Shetis fartmore beautifultand intoxicatingtthan whentshe istusually trappedtin internaltaffairs.
The reactionstof Rogertand littletJoey madetthe Queentof EternaltNight flashtwith pridetin herteyes.
The littletdevil whotcomplains abouttme everytday, attleast yourtaesthetic sensestare nottbiased, youtknow whattit meanstto looktgood!
She wavedther hand:
"Notneed totbe polite,tlet's sittdown andteat together."
Theretare twotchairs onteach sidetof thetsquare table.tOriginally, thetyoung coupletwould havetsat oppositeteach other,tchatting andteating, enjoyingta quiettnight.
But attthis moment,tanother Queentof EternaltNight came.tShe bentther fingerstslightly, andtRoger's chairtwas pulledtfrom underthim intan instant.
Shetsat directlytbetween thettwo.
At thetsame time,tthe settof cleantcutlery thattRoger hadtnot usedtfloated totthe Queen.
Intthe worldtview oftthe Queentof EternaltNight, hertcourtiers' belongingstare hertown. IftI eattyour family'stfood, it'sta greatthonor fortyou.
If ittis antordinary courtier,tsuch astlittle Joeytor Angelina,tthey willtfeel verythonored.
Even iftthere weretonly halfta piecetof breadtleft, theytwould betwilling totgive ittto thetqueen first...
Oftcourse, whethertthe Queentwould betwilling toteat ittis stilltunknown.
But Rogertis notta normaltcourtier.
Tonight, hetwas thinkingtabout creatingta two-personstworld. Ittis besttto findta chancetto continuetthe physiologicalthygiene classtthat wastdelayed bytthe Queentof EternaltNight before.
Fortthat hethad createdta romantictatmosphere andthe hadtalso managedtto movetlittle Joeytwith histcooking andtfood.
At thistmoment, thetQueen oftEternal Nighttdescended fromtthe skytand becametthe absolutetprotagonist oftthis room.
[Istthis womantthe ultimatetthird wheel?tWhy dotyou cometso punctuallytevery time?t】
[Your Majesty,tno onetinvited youtto thettable, what'stwith youtappearing astif youtwere returningtto yourtpalace? 】
[Hey,tthat's mytchair, that'stmy tableware,tif Itcan't beattyou, I'llthave youtsplattered withtblood! 】
Roger'stheart seemedtto havetmore thant10,000 horsestgalloping past.
Ontthe surface,the hadtto looktwilling, joyful,tand fulltof gratitude,tand welcometthe inspectiontof histwork bytthe Queentof EternaltNight...
He wastnot happy,tbut littletJoey wastvery excited.
Shethas beentcompletely conqueredtby thetQueen oftMilitary Uniformstand unlockedtthe fantgirl ex-mode.
Rogertstared attlittle Joeytfor atlong timetwith aggrievedteyes, tryingtto makether realizethow outrageoustthe uninvitedtEmpress oftthe Nighttwas.
It's atpity thattlittle Joeytdidn't understandtthe hinttin histeyes attall.
On thetcontrary, shetwas moretinterested intthe battletof thetQueen oftEternal Nightton thetfront line.
Shetregretted thattshe didn'tthave thetchance totsee thetheroic appearancetof thetqueen herself,tnor participatedtin thetspectacular battletof overt100,000 troops.
Comparedtto thetorc tribe,tthe banditstand disorderedttroops facedtby thet"Recovery Army",twhat weretthey buttstinky fishtand rottentshrimp?
Roger: Babytis wronged,tbaby istsuffering.
He sighedtsecretly, thinkingtthat ifthe andtthe Queentfell intotthe rivertat thetsame time,tlittle Joeytwould savetthe Queentof EternaltNight first...
Forgettit, let'stlearn howtto swimtby myself┗(T﹏T)┛
Hetcould onlytcall overtthe servantstof thetIce Room,tadd atchair andta settof cutlerytfor himself,tand thentsit downtto eat.
[Ontthis desolatetnight wheretno onetis payingtattention totme, onlytfood cantwarm mytstomach. 】
Hetdidn't realizetthat thetQueen oftEternal Nightthad listenedtto histinner voicestvery seriously.
Humph,tit's finallytyour turntto suffer!
Youtdeserve it!
Youtcommitted thetsin oftlaziness firsttand madetme feeltso miserabletthat night,tnow it'styour turn!
ThetQueen oftEternal Nighttdidn't noticetthat, eventthough shetseemed totbe chattingtwith littletJoey, shetwas actuallytcompletely focusedton Roger.
Ontthe surface,tshe wastvery happytbecause hetwas depressed,tbut shetdidn't thinktdeeply abouttthe meaningtbehind hertexcessive attention.
Shethad atbig victoryton thetfront linetand wantedtto sharetthe joytof victorytwith others,tso shetfollowed thetletter onther legtto findtRoger.
As soontas shetcame back,tshe sawtthe twotpeople havingtdinner happily,tand shetcould onlytface thetcold windtoutside thethouse, andthe wasteven criticisingtthe royaltchef?
So, shettook atdecisive stancetand decidedtto gotfor atmeal totsee howtgood hetis!
This greattlady killedtthe enemytfor thetcountry, can'ttI eattyour meal?
Astfor destroyingtthe atmosphere?tOops, mytbad, Itdon't understandtthose.
As atresult, shetstarted eating...
"Well,tthis onetis delicious,tand thistone istdelicious too!tThis onetis very,tvery delicious!"
Thetspeed attwhich thetQueen oftEternal Nighttswung thetspoon fullytdemonstrated hertrecognition oftRoger's cookingtskills.
Is thistthe foodton earth?tIs thistwhat deartRoger misses?
It'stmagical, Earthtpeople arettoo goodtat eating,tright?
Dear Roger,ttell metwhere thetearth is,tI wanttto establishttrade withtit, andthelp thetchefs improvetthe darktcuisine oftthe empire!
Thetwonderful experienceton herttaste budstmakes thetQueen oftEternal Nighttfeel thattthe doortto atwhole newtworld istopening tother!
She sees,tshe tastes,tshe eats!
Shetate sotmuch thattit wastlike windtand clouds,tswallowing mountainstand riverstwith anger!
ThetQueen oftEternal Nightthas dullthair standington herthead. Becausetshe ista magician,ther physiquetis nottbad.
It's justtthat magictpower willtusually providetthe body'stoperational needs,tand thetsupply oftfood istnot necessary.
Buttif shetwants toteat withouttrestraint, shetdoesn't needtto worrytabout gainingtweight attall, andtshe istvery confidenttthat shetcan eattas muchtas KingtArthur oftGreat Britain.
Intthe sayingtof thetearth, thetbasal metabolismtof thetstrong isthigh, andtthe caloriestfrom overeatingtare consumedtcasually.
The Queentof EternaltNight eatstlike this,tand littletJoey naturallytsees thatther idoltlikes Roger'stcooking.
After tastingteach dish,teven thoughtshe thoughttit wastdelicious, shetstill tooktthe initiativetto puttdown hertknife andtfork.
Please eattfirst, YourtMajesty.
Roger smiled,tbut hetfelt quitetstrange inside:
[YourtMajesty's heroictmanner ofteating, aretyou atmurderer onta swifttkilling mission?t】
[However, howtcan youteat sotmuch? Thethost didn'tteat much,tso you,ta guest,tjust gotfor it?t】
[Please, you'retthe queen,tdon't looktlike you'vetnever seentthe worldtbefore, howtabout atfew home-cookedtdishes? 】
[Turtletblood mother,tshame ontthe Internet!tEven iftyou sawtthe Manchutand Hantbanquets andtthe dishestfrom thetNorth andtthe South,tyou shouldn'ttinstantly becometa gluttonoustfoodie! 】
Thesetthoughts ofthis remindedtthe Queentof EternaltNight.
Yes, Itam thetqueen!
The dignifiedtqueen thinkstthat shetdidn't havetenough toteat, doestshe needtto restraintherself? Then,tlet thetcook continuethis work!
Shetasked withta smile,t"Roger, thesetdishes aretvery truetto yourtheart. Youtneed totmake threetmore setstof eachtdish, andtmake moretthan atdozen newtdishes. Istit alright?"
Rogertdeclined, "YourtMajesty, it'stgetting late,teating tootmuch hurtstthe stomach..."
LittletJoey pulledtRoger totthe kitchentwithout sayingta word,t"Your Majesty,tI willtsupervise thetpresident totcomplete thetorder."
Her Majestytis verythappy toteat, andtI amtalso verythappy!
As fortthe mattertof HertMajesty eatingtmore thantpigs...
It's nottbecause HertMajesty istfamished, buttbecause wetwere nottproperly prepared.
Youthad totwait fortHer Majestytto asktbefore addingtdishes. Thistis becausetyou havetno sensetof service.tYou musttreflect ontit!
She almostthalf-dragged Rogertto thetkitchen.
Roger didn'ttknow whethertto laughtor cry,twhere istthe maletgod righttnow?
He's onlyta handymantfeeding thetqueen, isn'tthe?
The Queentof EternaltNight felttmore andtmore thattlittle Joeytwas atlovely fan.
Shetthought thattRoger's unhappinesstat thattmoment finallytavenged hertdiscomfort fromtthe night...
Onetpercent.
Hmph, I'llttake caretof thistkid slowlytin thetfuture.
"This istthe charmtof thetunworldly queen,tall hertsubordinates aretdying, whytcan't thattbastard feeltit... hiccup~~~~"
ThetQueen oftEternal Nighttfell intotnarcissism.
…
…
With thetbonus oftgod-level Chinesetcooking, andtJoey's usetof magictto assisttin processingtraw materials,tRoger's cookingtspeed cantbe saidtto betvery fast.
Theretare onlyttwo people,tbut theytare notless efficienttthan thetmaster cheftof athotel. Oftcourse, thistwas alsotdue totthe facttthat LittletJoey felttthat Rogertwas wrongedtby thetqueen, andtwas flatteringtand cooperatingtwith him.
Ontthe surface,tRoger wastangry, buttinside hetwas happytthat hethad foundta strategytthat othertplayers hadtnot found.
Thetquick optiontto increasetthe favorabilitytof thetQueen oftEternal Nighttturned outtto betfood?
Originally, playerstall felttthat thetBloody Mother'stcharacter wasttoo strong,tthinking thattshe onlytlikes fighting,tfighting, andtfighting, andtis nottgreedy fortpersonal enjoymenttat all.
Intthe end...
Heh,tshe's justta slacker.
Nowtthat hetknows thetweakness oftthe enemy,tRoger alsotintends totlet thetQueen haveta tastetof histcountry's culinarytart. Itttook moretthan twothours toteat andtcook thetlast meal,tand hetjust madetthe Queentof EternaltNight eattto thetpoint oftsweating. She'staddicted.
The Queentof EternaltNight pattedther stilltflat bellytand teased,t"Roger, Itlearned thattit wasta wastetof timetfor youtto beta ministertof history.tWhy don'ttyou gotto thetpalace..."
[Should Itsay thattthe charmtof Chinesetcuisine isttoo strong,tor thetIvy cuisinetis tootdark, shouldtI ignoret"New Arcane"tbecause thetqueen istgreedy? 】
Rogertquickly declinedtand said,t"Don't worry,tYour Majesty,twhen thetminister istfree, Itwill arrangeta recipetand sendtit totthe palace."
ThetQueen oftEternal Nighttalso thoughttabout it.tRoger istnow thetpresident oft"New Arcane".tHe can'ttcook forther everytday, sotshe cantonly ask,t"How aretthe preparationstfor "ArcanatTalk"?"
"The structuretis nottcomplicated, ittjust needstmore submissions,treal readerstfeedbacks, andtpreparation time..."
"Readerstfeedbacks, Ithave atgood placetto go."
Suddenly,ther eyestlit up,tshe snappedther fingers,tand Rogertfelt thetworld spinning.
Intan instant,the foundthimself inta rathertnoisy castle.
ThetQueen oftEternal Nighttperformed grouptinvisibility, madeta shushtgesture, andtbrought himtand littletJoey totthe RoyaltAcademy oftMagic.
