Hao Yun left his residence and began to stroll around the streets.
To be honest, there's really nothing fun in this other world. Most people don't have time for entertainment because they have to work and earn money to support their families.
The only group Hao Yun had time to play with was the nobles, but unfortunately, Hao Yun wasn't familiar with any of them, so he could only wander around the streets alone.
"You are Emilia's knight?"
A haughty female voice reached Hao Yun's ears.
Hao Yun turned his head and couldn't help but sigh, realizing that he and this blood-red bride were truly destined to be together.
"I guess so."
Hao Yun's vague answer made Priscilla frown slightly.
"I was truly shocked to hear that you slew the white whale yesterday."
"It's alright. If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave."
Hao Yun didn't like Priscilla at all, because he simply couldn't stand her arrogant expression and attitude.
"Seeing me in such a hurry to leave, is it because you fear your master will suspect you?"
Priscilla stood in front of Hao Yun and pressed her fan against his chest.
Hao Yun pursed his lips, flicked the fan away with his finger, grabbed Priscilla, and moved her aside.
"Don't block my way. And just so you know, Emilia and I are just friends, not her knights."
The knights guarding Priscilla drew their longswords as Hao Yun grabbed her.
However, Priscilla stopped him. "Step back. He won't hurt me, Your Excellency. Am I right?"
Hao Yun shrugged, indicating that whatever you say is right.
After bypassing Priscilla, Hao Yun began to stroll along the street, stopping as he passed a street stall.
"Ten meat skewers and ten vegetable skewers."
Priscilla, who was following behind Hao Yun, couldn't help but cover her mouth and nose with her fan, a hint of disgust showing in her eyes.
Street stalls were not a part of aristocratic life.
"If you can't stand it, you can leave."
Hao Yun turned to look at Priscilla, a slight smile playing on his lips.
"I cannot understand why you would eat this kind of food."
"She really is a noble lady. Do you even know how vegetables grow?"
When Hao Yun asked her questions, Priscilla frowned and shook her head.
The knight beside him knew a little, but not much, so he didn't say anything.
"Do you know?"
Hao Yun nodded and spoke slowly.
"If you bury vegetable seeds in the soil and water them, they will sprout and grow in no time. At this point, the vegetables need fertilizer. Do you know what fertilizer is?"
From Hao Yun's narration, Priscilla sensed a hint of malice, but with Blessing in hand, she was not worried about her safety.
Because the effect of her blessing is that everything will go according to her wishes.
What is it?
As Priscilla questioned him, Hao Yun revealed a devilish smile.
"It's excrement; they'll use it to irrigate the vegetable garden."
Priscilla immediately realized what was happening and even connected the feces to the vegetables she ate every day.
"Ugh~"
"Hahaha!"
Hao Yun clutched his stomach and burst into laughter; this was exactly the effect he wanted.
"Hello, customer, here's your meat skewer."
Hao Yun took out a gold coin and tossed it to the shopkeeper before walking away with the meat and vegetable skewers.
"You bastard! You... ugh... stop right there!"
Priscilla covered her mouth, quickly caught up with Hao Yun, and angrily blocked his way.
Hao Yun stopped and took a bite of the meat skewer.
"What are you doing? You want some too? If you want some, go buy it yourself. I'm not giving it to you."
Priscilla's emotions, which she had just managed to calm down, suddenly exploded.
"I would never eat such filthy food!"
Do you usually eat vegetables?
Hao Yun's sharp words immediately broke Priscilla's defenses, and she squatted on the side of the street, retching again.
Chapter 263 Returning to the Manor
"Hey, can you find somewhere else to gag? People who don't know better might think you're pregnant."
Hao Yun rolled his eyes and walked past Priscilla.
"Stop right there! I! I..."
Priscilla, maintaining her aristocratic demeanor, was momentarily at a loss for words when it came to scolding Hao Yun.
"Get in here!"
Hao turned around and instantly stuffed the vegetable skewers into Priscilla's mouth.
"Come, taste the filthy food in your mouth."
The brutality made Priscilla forget to resist.
"Lady Priscilla, are you alright?"
The knight who was standing beside Priscilla finally spoke.
"Kill him!"
Priscilla screamed, spat out the skewer of vegetables in her mouth, and angrily pointed at Hao Yun.
"boring!"
With a single palm strike, Hao Yun sent Priscilla's knight flying. Ignoring the two, he walked straight to the end of the street.
Seeing Hao Yun disappear, Priscilla gritted her teeth in hatred. As more and more people gathered around, Priscilla said with a gloomy face.
"Al, let's go!"
A carriage pulled up, and Priscilla boarded without even glancing at the knight.
The knight who had just been knocked away by Hao Yun coughed and got up from the ground.
"My princess, don't you even care about my health?"
"Stop talking nonsense!"
Priscilla was in a very bad mood, and all she could think about was how to punish Hao Yun. She had no time to care about anything else.
"Finally, we've shaken them off."
After throwing away the bamboo skewer in his hand, Hao Yun stood on the street, somewhat lost, wondering what he should do.
The streets were bustling with people, both humans and orcs. Patrolling soldiers passed by, and Hao Yun slapped his thigh. Damn it! He had forgotten the most important thing.
According to the plot, the Witch Cult members should have already gathered near the manor at this time, waiting for Emilia to return.
Hao Yun rushed back to the residence and into Emilia's room.
"Emilia, let's go back to the manor... Aba aba..."
Emilia, who was changing her clothes, looked at Hao Yun who had barged in. Their eyes met, and after a long while, Emilia blushed, and countless ice blades floated in the air.
"Ouch, I can't see anything! Emilia? Emilia, are you there?"
Hao Yun, who had been groping around with his hands, decisively turned and left.
After leaving the room, Hao Yun quickly fled the crime scene.
"Perverted guest, why are you in such a panic? Did you do something bad again? Did you get caught spying on Lady Emilia?"
Rem, who was wiping the table, casually made a sarcastic remark about Hao Yun.
"Ahem, of course not."
Hao Yun sat on the sofa with an embarrassed expression, picked up his teacup and took a sip.
“Perverted customer, that’s my cup.”
Under Rem's resentful gaze, Hao Yun drank the tea in his cup in one gulp.
Emilia, dressed in a pure white long dress, came downstairs. Hao Yun and she exchanged a glance, and both of them involuntarily looked away.
"Amelia, why don't we go back to the manor today?"
Emilia took a deep breath and calmed herself down.
"Why?"
Hao Yun scratched his head, wondering if he should tell him that the Witch Cult was lying in ambush near the manor and that taking him back was a ploy to lure them out.
Seemingly sensing Hao Yun's predicament, Emilia finally sighed.
"Since you want to go back, let's set off in a bit. Anyway, Roswaal will handle things in the capital."
Rem sent news of the slaying of the white whale back to the manor last night, and Roswaal also rushed over and is currently arguing with the Sages at the palace.
"Rem, go pack your things."
Under Emilia's arrangement, Rem prepared the dragon carriage, took the unconscious Subaru Natsuki, and the four of them embarked on the road back to the manor.
