New Century Kitchen Warrior

Chapter 184 Returning with Gifts
In the following time, Grady described in more detail everything she encountered in the witch tribe.

It sounds like Grady's Travels.

According to her description, although the people in the witch tribe were very hostile to Greti, an outsider who had intruded without permission, at first, Greti soon won the respect and trust of the locals with her outstanding ability to make magic props. After becoming one of them, that group of people were happy to help her with various things.

However, if you listen to her more detailed description, you will know that the reason why there are various professions in that place is simply because that place is like a small country, and all walks of life need to be self-sufficient. Many professional players are forced to come out. Maybe there are all kinds of high-level talents, but without the blessing of interest and talent, they cannot be considered the top tier, so that place is not suitable for further study.

The only exception is space magic.

With the testimony of Greti, who had seen the witches with her own eyes, Lei Ye finally confirmed that the rumor about the witches was true. There really is a special group of people in this world whose breasts are bigger as their magic power increases. Therefore, each of them has to study space magic desperately to prevent themselves from being unable to walk in their old age due to too strong magic power.

"There is one more thing. The elves in the Great Forest have an elven mother tree. Women can get pregnant by eating the fruits on it. The witches are all women, and they all rely on those fruits to reproduce. In short, there are only women in that place. I'm not sure if their attitude towards you, a man, will be different from their attitude towards me," Grady hesitated, her eyes falling on Lei Ye's lower half, "Of course, you might be identified as a demon man, so it's hard to say."

In addition to the witches' tribe, Greti also racked his brains to tell some other information, such as about Anwei. Although he didn't know the name of Xiao Hei's skill, Greti had experienced the effect personally and was implanted with a nightmare by her. For a long time afterwards, Greti was not sure whether he was still living in the nightmare she implanted.

This is very valuable information. It is important to understand the inherent skills of the other party before getting in-depth contact with them.

But it would be useless even if Anwei's skills were known, because even the magic item maker Grady has not found any way to crack it over the years.

Lei Ye said it didn't matter, he probably knew how to win, because Buyadi didn't seem to be affected by the nightmare, her mental resistance was ridiculously strong, which meant that the condition to resist this skill was mental resistance, and Grady was physically weak and mentally not very strong, so she was more likely to be hit, which indirectly confirmed this point.

Lei Ye’s own mental endurance is strong enough.

Fortunately, if the person trapped in that skill dies in the dream, he or she will really die. Anwei only has the ability to modify the nightmare, but not the ability to control the victim himself, so even if Lei Ye is trapped, he or she can go back to the previous state.

"Why don't you tell me more clues about Nadori?" Lei Ye asked the question that concerned him most.

"There really are no more clues," Greti shook her head. "I've seen many, many monsters, but I've never seen one as small as your Nedori with such vigorous vitality. It's more like a very powerful thing trapped in that small body. There are experts in identifying plants in the Great Forest, so I suggest you take Nedori with you to have a look."

This is true. A normal Nadori would easily die if not carefully cared for, but Raino's Nadori is very durable and becomes more energetic as she grows older.

I have to go now.

Everything about Nedoriki is a big deal. The trip to the Great Forest has nothing to do with saving Buyadhi. You may have to make a trip just to save her, and you may have to make another trip after saving her.

Later, Grady talked a lot about the other seven deadly sins, but the relationship between the seven deadly sins was not particularly close, and she knew less than Raino.

So in the end there was nothing more to say, only silence, and in the silence dark fell.

When the two left the library, a magic firework exploded in the sky. It was a signal that there would be a party tonight, but also a signal of parting.

——Explorer Guild——

Lei Ye ordered some Red Warm Mary, splitting one cup into two and mixing it with a homemade drink so that it wouldn't be so spicy when consumed.

"What are they doing? Why are they moving so many tables?" Grady asked, pointing at the crowd not far away.

The guild's tables and chairs were moved outside. As the sponsors of the party and Hillius' idol, Mr. Ohno, Rayno and Grady sat in the best seats. In front of them, the staff were busy.

"It's a special kind of party in the local area. Some people will drink this strong liquor and go up to dance."

Lei Ye explained the rules to her.

The strong liquor made Grady's face a little rosy. She took a big gulp, then stood up and reached out to Lei Ye.

"Would you like to go dancing with me later?"

".No."

After hesitating for a moment, Lei Ye rejected Greti's invitation. He looked up at the top of the table which was getting higher and higher, and vaguely saw his own figure twisting on it. From a distance, the girl, whom he was the only one to see, was clapping her hands and twisting her butt to the beat.

It turns out that one can see Buyadi without carrying her soul. Even if she really dies, her soul will follow her like a shadow with the bond of love and will never go away.

Lei Ye also drank, then waved and nodded to the approaching explorers, indicating that he wanted a quiet environment. Although many people wanted to chat with Mr. Ohno, they all felt that Mr. Ohno was flirting with girls, so they retreated consciously.

Lei Ye is the biggest boss tonight because he has completely opened up his storage bag, with unlimited amounts of all kinds of delicacies.

Many people have only heard the rumors and followed the trend, and have never even eaten egg fried rice. Those who have eaten egg fried rice may not have tried Lei Ye's luxurious barbecue set meal. As a result, this place has become a skating scene, and it is common to see people's clothes suddenly burst and then fall to the ground and convulse.

When he woke up, he automatically joined the Thunder Guards and shouted "Long live Teacher Ohno".

Being denied the chance to dance, Grady didn't want to go over there, so she sat in her seat and drank heavily.

"I envy you so much," she said in a drunken tone.

"what?"

"So many people love you. I want this too. Do you remember when I went back to Jiaotu to find my mother? I fantasized that if I gave her money, she would love me. But if she really loves me if I gave her money, then who does she love, me or my money? Maybe I should learn how to cook." She muttered as she became drunk.

"According to what you said, it's useless for you to learn it, because these people don't love me, they love my fried rice. One of the people who loved me is dead, and the other one is not even familiar with me."

“But if I want you to love me, I can cook for you all my life. But if you want my mother to love me, I have to keep giving her money. I don’t have that much money, I really don’t. It’s so hard to make money. Woohoo, it’s so hard to make money. The local demons in Jiaotu bully people. They bully me because I am small and don’t know the prices. They cheated me of my money and hired people to beat me. How great it would have been if I had known you at that time. No one would help me, but you would definitely help me.”

"You've drunk too much." Seeing that her speech was getting faster and faster, Lei Ye whispered to comfort her, not wanting to argue with this drunkard.

It is indeed very hard to make money. To hear Grady's true feelings, she may have been bullied a lot at that time.

If the two of them had started a business together at that time, perhaps they could have avoided some detours.

But no amount of suffering is a reason to do bad things later.

"Your eyes are really annoying." She still grumbled. "With that ability, you will succeed in everything you do, because you can start over countless times, but I can't. I made a lot of wrong choices, because at that time I could only look for a better way to survive, and I couldn't find a better way. If I could do it again with my memory, you would see a brand new Grady on the day of reunion, and she would say hello to you with a refreshed spirit. Nice to meet you."

"You can still miss your mother, but I can't, because I killed her."

Another explosive remark made Lei Ye's body tremble.

She guessed that Grady would have trouble with her family after returning to the Scorched Earth, but she never thought it would be so intense.

Suddenly he realized something and asked cautiously.

"Did you reveal your secrets?"

"What kind of handle is this? There are many people in this world who kill their relatives with their own hands, and the reason I did this was much more legitimate. Who would be bribed by a business rival to kill her own child? I was acting in self-defense."

She cried very sadly, "But I am still very sad. How can I not be sad? I don't have a mother anymore. If I could start over again, I would definitely think of some other way."

Facing the sinner who shed the most tears, Lei Ye felt a little reluctant, so he moved closer and gently patted her on the back.

Grady suddenly raised her head with tears in her eyes.

"And you, if my memory could go back to the past and your memory remained the same, and if I could do it again, I would definitely be able to change our relationship, even if it was like what happened to Sekbosi. If I can't keep you, at least I can carve a mark in your heart. I've made the wrong choice so many times, and in the end I still made the wrong choice in the pursuit of love, and there is no chance to start over. You'll be gone soon, leaving me all alone here, and all my changes will be reversed, and the other me and you will still be out of reach."

"Today's party was a real failure."

Lei Ye sighed softly and retracted the hand that was patting Greti's back, "You are right, I am someone who has a chance to start over, so don't worry, the other you will not be out of reach of me, and we will still be friendly competitors."

"But that's not me, why don't you understand!" Grady shouted.

In fact, Lei Ye understood.

But he couldn't solve it.

If he wants this Grati, he can't want Buyadi. If he wants that Buyadi, no one can help him.

So here he didn't show any soft expression and just looked at her silently.

After a moment, Grady slumped back into her seat and waved her hand.

"I am human." Then he said something very strange.

Lei Ye was stunned, "What?"

"There are many kinds of hybrids in this world, even hybrids of humans and dragons exist, but their children are dragon people. There is no such thing as demons between demons and humans. It only depends on the proportion of bloodline. I only have one eighth of demon bloodline, so I am not a demon at all. I am just a human. The demon genes have only given me a long enough life and a pair of small horns."

She spoke very quickly but her words were clear, her cheeks were rosy and her expression was serious, as if she was about to reveal her biggest secret while drunk.

"But the inherent skills I gained later were an unexpected surprise. Inherent skills like this are not necessarily based on bloodline, but more on luck. With these inherent skills, I was able to identify myself in the Scorched Earth. It was also with these skills that I was able to deceive the former Demon King into trusting me. I also got the name Greedy by deceiving others and spending money. After I got this name, even when I had all my money spent, few people bullied me."

"You understand what I mean? Only a true demon can bear the mortal sin. If you tell anyone about this, I will no longer be greedy. I will not be able to live in the Demon Castle and enjoy the benefits of being a mortal sin. I will be fined or even expelled. Then I will have nothing in the true sense. I may not be afraid of death, but I will definitely be afraid of this. After you tell me this, I will definitely obey almost any request you make. Anything."

This is the so-called biggest secret that can control Grady.

Just tell him so simply?

In Lei Ye's opinion, one-eighth of demon bloodline was nothing, and he also felt that Buyadi would not take it too seriously. But after saying this, Grady was like a deflated ball, and fell limply on the table.

She picked up another glass of red Wenmary and gulped it down without waiting for Lei Ye to mix it. Because she was lying on her side on the table, the scarlet wine flowed everywhere.

The spiciness of the wine made her grin, and then she waved to Lei Ye.

In an instant, Lei Ye felt something crawling behind him. When he reacted, he heard a snap. The long ropes made of the Black Demon Armor were like two living snakes, entangled with his hands and feet.

"Showing weakness to you really works. If only I had known you would fall for it," Greti muttered in the same position, "This is my last reminder for you. When you deal with the Black Demon Flow Armor, you must carefully check the core inside. Even if there is only one hidden, the final ownership is still with me."

She slowly stood up, took Lei Ye's storage bag, easily opened it, took out the Black Demon Armor inside, and put it on Lei Ye.

Soon Lei Ye's body was swallowed by darkness, leaving only his head.

Grady staggered and sat on Lei Ye's legs face to face.

"Fuck you."

Halfway through his curse, his mouth was blocked by Grady.

A long, bitter, alcoholic kiss with a hint of blood from Grady's bitten tongue.

"I don't care about other Greti. You have to remember this kiss. It was given to you by the Greti in front of you."

Grady looked a little proud. She had been drinking since a while ago, and until this moment she finally made up her mind to make the right choice.

Her mouth was full of blood and she sighed softly.

"I really want you to know how much I don't want you to leave"

Then, she used the knife of the Black Demon Flow Armor to cut open Lei Ye's neck.
