Chapter 104: The Speedy Horse

Later, Charlotte was promoted to a higher level. Louis Simi was already preparing gifts and planning to visit her. However, he did not expect that before he could take any action, Charlotte would come to invite him to dinner.

Louis Simi would never refuse the olive branch of friendship extended by Charlotte. Although he had contacts with many imperial officials, Charlotte, a young talent who had not yet made a name for himself but was promoted at lightning speed, was fundamentally different from those people.

Back at No. 58, Champs-Elysees, Charlotte smiled and said, "My cook, Mrs. Wu Meizijiang, is an expert at making exquisite barbecue from the New World. I really want to share it with others, but you know, Louis..."

"Anne is a lady."

Louis Simi also smiled and said, "Yes, Miss Brittany is not suitable for such rough food."

"But I have no problem with that."

"I've heard about the unique flavor of New World barbecue, but I've never tried it. I really want to thank you Charlotte for your generous sharing."

Mrs. Wu Meizijiang had already prepared all the ingredients for the barbecue, and Mrs. Nancy was there to help. Charlotte and Louis Smith drank beer, tasted the barbecue, and chatted about the latest news in the empire.

After exchanging pleasantries, Charlotte said, "I may also have to go to the battlefield, so I want to ask, Louis, do you have anything that can improve your survival on the battlefield?"

Louis Simi smiled and said, "I originally had a few pieces of armor, but they have been reserved. As you know, the upper echelons of the empire are never short of well-informed people."

When Charlotte heard that Louis Simi didn't have what he needed, she couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.

Louis ate a bunch of delicious lamb kidneys, pondered for a moment, and said, "Actually, I think what you need most now is to make a will."

"Although this matter is a bit unlucky, I still sincerely suggest that you deal with this matter first."

"No one can guarantee that they will survive the battlefield. If there is no will, it will be very troublesome to deal with the property."

Charlotte pondered for a while, and actually felt that Louis Simi's suggestion was good, and said, "I should indeed make a will."

Louis Simi smiled and said, "There is another reason why I suggest you make a will."

"The only thing that can increase your chances of survival on the battlefield is luck."

"You should also know that after a soldier on the battlefield makes a will, he can send it to the Temple of the Lord of Glory for cremation, and generally he will receive a blessing from the Lord of Glory."

"On the battlefield, nothing can increase your luck more than the blessing of the Lord of Light."

Charlotte's eyes lit up, and he immediately felt that this treat was not in vain. The Lord of Light is also a god who bestows luck on believers.

The most famous miracle of the Glorious Gate on the Champs-Elysees is that anyone who enters will randomly walk out of one of the four gates, and that direction represents the best fortune for the pedestrian that day.

He smiled happily and said, "Louis, you are also the lucky Louis! Every time I meet you, good things happen."

Louis Simi smiled slightly and said, "Maybe it's because I also believe in the Lord of Light."

It is the Black Moon Era. The Old World has the most people who believe in goddesses, but there are still people who believe in other gods, and even many who believe in evil gods. For example, in the Bairon Empire, almost everyone worships the ancestor gods. The ancestors of those vampires are all evil gods. Charlotte stopped talking and kept urging people to drink. After eating, he invited Louis to the terrace on the third floor to drink coffee and pet the cats. The three clever cats used their skills to act cute, which made Louis relax and look very comfortable.

Like Dorothy, Louis was full of praise for the new charcoal-roasted coffee and was willing to pay ten écu to buy the recipe.

Charlotte generously gave the other party the method of roasting charcoal coffee. He really didn’t think that this method was worth much.

It’s just that no one in the Old World thought of roasting coffee beans this way. Once someone thought of it, they would sooner or later figure out the correct roasting steps.

When Louis Smith got the recipe for the new coffee, he was overjoyed. He immediately informed his coachman, who soon brought back something.

He handed a huge box to Charlotte and said, "I'm so happy to get the coffee formula. I just happened to receive something very interesting. I wanted to give it to you as a gift for your promotion and moving into a new house, but I got the news too late. I always felt that it was insincere and inappropriate to send it now. Now I finally have an excuse to send it out."

Charlotte did not refuse the gift. Refusing a gift sometimes means rejecting friendship, and he did not want to reject the friendship of a businessman.

Especially a magic item merchant like Louis.

He used to think that he and Louis would not have much interaction, but now Charlotte feels that she may need a "stable" channel to sell stolen goods.

Well, although the silver rhino in my hand cannot be sold, the other weapons can be used for the time being, but sooner or later there will be a day when "weapons are overflowing", and some unused things will have to be disposed of.

Charlotte opened the box in front of Louis Simi, and inside was a pair of metal leggings, and there was even an instruction manual in the box.

"Is this the legendary speeding horse?"

Charlotte was slightly surprised. He actually knew this thing. The Divine Horse was one of the six alchemy workshops in the Fars Empire. The alchemical items produced by the Star Workshop, although not extraordinary, were very popular.

The Speedy Horse usually takes the form of leg guards. When in use, two extremely elastic extended shanks will pop out, which can increase the running speed by two to three times, and also slightly increase the bounce.

If it weren't for the agility spell, this pair of speedy horses would definitely be what Charlotte longed for, as they were a life-saving tool in an emergency. But after gaining the agility spell, he didn't have much need for them anymore. The speedy horses themselves were quite heavy, which would offset some of the effectiveness of the agility spell, and this thing could only accelerate in a straight line and was not flexible enough.

Of course Charlotte didn't show it, and Louis obviously didn't know that he had the ability of telekinesis. This gift was chosen very carefully. He showed a surprised expression and said, "Thank you, Louis. I really need this."

Louis smiled and said, "I just hope that when you run for your life, your posture won't be noticed by the superiors because of your outstanding appearance."

Charlotte laughed. This old joke from the Old World was quite appropriate for the occasion.

The two chatted for an entire afternoon before Louis Simi said goodbye and left.

The next day, Charlotte wrote two wills, one of which was sent to Anne of Brittany, stating that if she was unfortunate, all her property would be divided into three parts, half to her beloved Anne, and the other half divided into two parts, one to her brother and one to her sister.

Another will was personally delivered to the Temple of the Lord of Light for cremation.
