Chapter 263: Chapter 183: This is a Banned Book authored by Lance; take it back and read it to the Valkyrie_2
Miss Erinna, the Pureblood Thunder Giant Dragon, surely holds a distinguished identity as well.
They can wander Saint Blue City as they please, stay here for the night and leave tomorrow.
Being around the esteemed Valkyrie’s friend… is too much pressure.
“What is your relationship with the Valkyrie?” Erinna approached Lance, sizing him up from head to toe. A mere human Ancestor of the Sword… daring to call a Valkyrie mischievous… there must be something fishy.
“A secret.”
“???”
“Some matters relate to deities and should not be spoken of; speaking of them would be boasting… and might get even further distorted as people talk. I feel that my own actions are already somewhat over the top. To chat about them with every person I meet… wouldn’t just be showing off, but devaluing that friendship.”
“You should not be so inquisitive. Rather than dwelling in idle curiosity, you’d be better off studying the ‘Sword Scripture’ intensively and aspiring to master the art of the sword sooner, so you can settle the score with that Black Dragon.”
“If you manage to defeat the Black Dragon using the swordsmanship learned from the ‘Sword Scripture,’ I would share in your glory.”
“…..”
Erinna, the Thunder Giant Dragon, gritted her teeth — not telling her about his origins with the Valkyrie was bad enough, but to bring up that detestable Black Dragon to insult her combat skills…
That detestable human lord didn’t seem to take her, the Pureblood Thunder Giant Dragon, seriously at all.
“You are right. It’s better to read than to pry into your privacy. During your absence from the city… I came across an interesting book in Saint Blue City, and I purchased a few copies with a decent sum of money, which should make perfect gifts in return.”
“???”
Erinna, the Thunder Giant Dragon, flashed Lance a sly smile as a glitter of light in her right hand revealed three beautifully crafted books of leisure in her grasp.
Saint Orla and Holy Knight Steven saw the titles of the exquisite books.
“My Love Story Couldn’t Possibly Be Problematic.”
“Saintess, Holy Knight, these three books are something I secured from a mysterious merchant at a high price. If you two have not yet experienced love, then I recommend this ‘Love Story’ book for each of you.
The book contains many memorable lines and is filled with humor. Let me read you a couple of sentences that made a deep impression on me.”
The first line: “You damned woman, you’re so sweet… mmph mmph mmph!”
“So, you’re promoting the ‘Banned Books’ in front of me, the lord who personally ordered their censorship. Do you perhaps have little regard for me as your lord?
Seeing as this is your first offense, this time it’s a gagging order and confiscation of the books you bought. If there’s a next time, it will be a fine coupled with expulsion from the country.”
The moment Erinna, the Thunder Giant Dragon, started to read those lines, Lance acted with the swiftness of a thunderclap to confiscate the banned books from her hands, and he also tore up a [minor Forbidden Technique] scroll that muted her ability to speak.
When he initially wrote them, they didn’t feel significant, but why is it that now, whenever someone reads those lines in front of him, it makes his skin crawl?
Sneaky and malicious Erinna planned to spread his embarrassing past from Saint Blue to the far reaches.
“Steven, are you and the Saintess going to my place for lunch, or do you prefer to dine in Saint Blue City?”
“Saint Blue City, we’ll eat in Saint Blue City.”
“Okay, then I’m heading back for lunch first.”
“Lord Lance, have a good meal.”
Saint Orla and Holy Knight Steven watched as Lance departed. The Amethyst Young Dragon politely greeted them before following Lance out of the Dragon God Temple.
Five or six minutes after Lance left, lightning flickered around Erinna, the Thunder Giant Dragon, and once the thunder faded, Erinna regained her speech.
Three books reappeared in her hands, with the same titles as before.
“You both heard it earlier, these are banned books. To think of the content that warrants the status of banned… need I say how extraordinary? I won’t bother reading some of the classic quotes and runic spells inside, you two can enjoy the details at home.
And let me remind you, some of the source energy formations and talismans in this book are real and can be used in reality.
If you don’t believe me, when you get back, try out any talismans or source energy formations introduced in the book.”
Last but not least… I hereby present the creator of this book, the ‘Viscount’. This ‘Viscount’ is none other than your Lord Lance, and the content of this book is his own creation.”
When you get back… you might try reading the book to the Valkyrie. If you feel too embarrassed to read it out loud, you could read it to the Valkyrie Statue before you begin… just say to the statue, ‘Lord Lance is the author of this book.'”
Erinna handed the three books over to Saint Orla.
If the human lord dared to mute her speech and movement with a [minor Forbidden Technique], she wouldn’t feel guilty about freely gifting his sordid past to the Valkyrie.
“Miss Erinna… are you sure these banned books… are suitable for us to read?”
“Quite suitable, extremely so. If you’re brave enough to finish the book, you might even find a way to counteract Lance.”
That powerful?
Saint Orla solemnly accepted the three books from Miss Erinna.
Considering Lord Lance’s reaction just now, the content within these banned books must truly be exceptional.
She decided to take them home for a closer look.
Oh, and to read in the temple.@@novelbin@@
Lord Lance is a good friend of Sophia; presumably… Sophia would also want to catch up on the latest developments of this friend from two millennia ago.
Miss Erinna is a good person… no, a good dragon.
“Miss Erinna, these are gifts from the Valkyrie Temple for the Dragon God Temple. Kindly peruse them.”
“No need, just place the gifts at the Divine Platform below the Dragon God Temple.”
“Understood.”
“Today, let me host you. The human lord made a good point, it would seem rather ungracious of me, a Thunder Giant Dragon, not to treat you. Besides, it’s a good opportunity for me to relax.”
