"Ah!" Herbie was startled. Sure enough, Audrey was standing behind her and put her hand on her shoulder.

"I wasn't thinking about Blaze."

"Then why are you laughing?"

"I'm not laughing. Besides, I wasn't thinking about Blaise, so it's impossible for me to laugh about it." Herbie's face was tense. She paid attention to her expression all the time, so Audrey must be lying to her.

Audrey gave him a meaningful smile, put her hands behind her back, and leaned closer to Herbie until she could see herself in Herbie's eyes.

"Then when did you give the chocolate to Blaze without making a sound?"

"..." Herbie pursed his lips into a straight line and shook his head stubbornly.

"No~"

"I smell the sweat on you. You're lying." Audrey nodded Herbie's nose teasingly, "Is it because of the [cows] that the sweat smells sweet and milky?"

This sentence broke Herbie's defense, and she waved her arms with a red face.

"Didn't you agree not to smell my scent?"

"Who told you to lie? By the way, the smell mainly comes from here." Audrey hooked the button on Herbie's chest in a frivolous manner, and then let out a silvery laugh as if her prank was successful.

"Gu - this is the most terrifying laugh I have ever heard." Herbie pulled his clothes with tears in his eyes, especially to protect his chest.

"Okay, I won't joke with you anymore. Who told you to send chocolates without telling me?" Audrey held her chin with a cheerful expression.

"Aren't you angry?" Herbie lingered next to Audrey and asked cautiously, "Actually, I didn't mean it. I made a sample of the chocolate coin and was deciding whether to eat it or keep it when he came in."

"In the end, I gave him the chocolate without giving it much thought."

"How could I get angry about something like this? Our relationship is not so superficial." Audrey nodded seriously and put her hand on Herbie's shoulder and squeezed it. "Besides, I firmly believe that there is no point in being the first one to give the gift."

“The first one to eat is the most important.”

Chapter 1414: Longing for Her

"Are you really thinking about this?"

Herbie looked at Audrey speechlessly. She had not expected that Miss Audrey would start thinking about such things which would have been considered meaningless in the past.

"You've changed a lot."

"After all, there are strong enemies."

Audrey gestured in a direction, and Herbie picked up the telescope and looked over. It was Farahsha... Marika behind her.

As if she noticed someone was watching her, Marika's eyes turned instantly, extremely cold.

But Herbie didn't do anything wrong. Instead, he waved his arms vigorously after looking at Marika.

After noticing it was Herbie, Marika's eyes softened and she nodded slightly as a greeting.

"I have good news for you. If you really consider Marika to be your rival, then at least you don't have to worry about Valentine's Day chocolates."

"What do you mean?" Audrey refilled her cup of tea, intending to listen to Herbie's opinion.

"Maryka has contracted the late night chocolate workshop to make chocolates for the Royal Knights. The Royal Knights have quite a few people. She has been making chocolates in the chocolate workshop at night for the past two nights. I don't think she has time to prepare a special portion of chocolate for Blaze."

Audrey paused, put down her teacup, and smiled helplessly.

"This is not good news. If Marika is going to make chocolate for the Royal Knights, how can I take the opportunity to do such a thing."

"Hey, there's a sneak in front of you." Herbie complained a little, but there was nothing she could do. Although she and Audrey had this kind of relationship, they were completely two different people.

"So what are you going to do?"

"Of course I'm going to help this leader who works as a bodyguard during the day and has to work all night to make chocolates. She doesn't look like someone who is good at doing such delicate work." Audrey drank the cup in one gulp, then stood up, holding up her skirt.

"Come on, let me check the inventory of [Hermes's Traveling Hat], and we can also make some chocolates to give to the Silver Knights to thank them for their help to Arcadia for a year."

"Hey~ What about Blaze's chocolate?" Herbie followed Audrey dejectedly, "Don't let me be the only one who gives chocolate to him. He might be disappointed."

"I don't think he's sophisticated enough to think of such things."

Audrey looked up at the huge hot air balloon in the sky, and she raised her hand and grasped it, as if she wanted to grab it.

But she knew that the more she wanted to hold on to him, the further away she would be from him, and eventually she would miss him, so she was willing to stay away from him at this moment.

Audrey slowly clenched her fist and pressed the light she caught in her hand against her chest. Although she thought so in her heart, a somewhat lonely expression still appeared on her face.

She thought about what Blaze had said and done.

What we are doing now may be to take a detour, but we never expected that when we see the goal right in front of us, we will turn around and choose a longer path that may not even reach the goal, which is so difficult.

And he made this choice every time.

The boy was very busy, running non-stop like a gust of wind. If you weren't paying attention, you could only see his presence from the swaying leaves.

If you don't seize the opportunity now, you won't know when you will meet again.

I want to see him, I want to jump up to the sky and sit next to him, but now I can't see him just to do something meaningful, not in vain, and even this thing itself will be a [right] thing in his eyes.

Audrey will do the right thing

He said this with a smile, and she sighed quietly, Miss Audrey is not always a good girl, she wants to do those [bad things].

But today is also a victory for the good girl Miss Audrey. She withdrew her gaze and left reluctantly.

She didn't know how long she could endure it. Maybe it would be as long as she could endure it. If she didn't get some rewards, she would not stay in the cage obediently... Just kidding.

……

Late at night, Audrey groped her way towards the chocolate workshop with a pile of boxes in her arms. As expected, there were not many people here, and only a little light.

Herbie, who was holding more boxes, was about to cry. Firstly, Audrey no longer took care of her since she became the blessed one, and secondly, she saw the miserable conditions in the chocolate workshop with her own eyes.

Audrey was staggering with the box in her arms, unable to see the road ahead. Suddenly, she seemed to be tripped by something and lost her balance.

Just as she was about to fall, a hand held her waist and the box stopped as if fixed by the darkness itself.

Audrey sniffed and a familiar smell came with the wind.

"Oh! Why are you here, Audrey?" Blaze opened the box and gave Audrey a bright smile.

"Gurgle! Cough cough..." Audrey did not answer directly. Instead, she stood up immediately, put her right fist in front of her mouth and coughed.

"I heard that the leader of the Royal Knights, Marika, stayed up all night to make chocolates for the members of the Knights, so I came to help and make chocolates for the Silver Knights. But you, why are you here? Don't you have that hot air balloon?"

"That's only open during the day. It's too dangerous at night." Blazer helped Audrey and Herbie hold the box.

"Yes, is that the case?" Audrey walked in front of Blaze calmly and gracefully. After Blaze could no longer see her face, her eyes seemed to roll out of their sockets, and she squeezed out the corner of her eye to look at Blaze.

No wonder Blaze likes to take long journeys so much. The moment he decides to embark on a long journey, the destination seems to be right at his feet.

Long live good girls!

After a hungry beast has eaten and drunk its fill, even the coldest mouth will reveal a bright smile.

Audrey calmly pushed open the door of the chocolate workshop. As expected, this huge workshop was empty with only one light on.

An exceptionally tall figure was bending over awkwardly, groping around on the workbench.

That flaming red hair was still very eye-catching even when tied up.

"Hey, Marika, I'm here. Someone is here to help you today." Blaze shouted, and Marika immediately stood up straight. The mighty leader of the Royal Knights greeted them awkwardly.

Blaze walked over briskly with the box in his arms, but Audrey stopped where she was.

Herbie grabbed Audrey's hand with some concern, Blaze didn't sound like he was here to help Marika for the first time.

"It's okay with me." Audrey shook her head and looked helplessly at the girl who was standing next to Blaze and felt a little uneasy.

"I'm not jealous or envious. On the contrary, I admire and like her. She's a good girl, isn't she?"

Chapter 1415 The decision is yours

Marika was indeed not good at delicate tasks, just as Audrey had expected. Even simple tasks like melting chocolate and letting it solidify would result in a lot of jokes.

For example, if you use too much force with your hands, you may flatten the pot of chocolate.

Thinking about it this way, there are few people among the Giens who are good at delicate crafts. After all, they are descendants of giants. Maybe the Giens must have childhood sweethearts, because those Giens without childhood sweethearts have been eliminated by nature.

Compared with Marika's clumsiness, Audrey, who seemed to have never touched a finger before, made chocolate very skillfully after tying on an apron. She could make exquisite chocolate even without using molds.

"Ms. Audrey is amazing."

Marika couldn't help but applaud, and her eyes, like two flames, made Audrey smile helplessly.

"You are amazing, Lady Marika. I never thought of giving chocolates to the members of the Knights. I only did it after seeing you do it."

"Looking at it this way, I am still quite arrogant and look down on others. I don't even think of thanking some of the people who have made contributions to the kingdom in the past."

"How could that be? Miss Audrey is a very beautiful person!"

Compared to the harmonious atmosphere between Audrey and Marika, Blaze and Herbie's situation was much worse.

"You guys have something good to do and you don't remember to call me!"

Herbie waved the pot aggressively, but this time Blaze did not indulge Herbie and directly grabbed the pot.

"Don't play with kitchen utensils. It's dangerous." Blazer took the pot from Herbie's hand and hit Herbie on the head. "I did that for world peace."

"Then you should come to me. I'm your personal logistics officer." Herbie kept circling around Blaze, like a little hunter looking for the right moment to launch a surprise attack.

And the target of her sneak attack was Blaze's ticklish spot.

"Hey!" Herbie seized the opportunity and poked his finger fiercely, but not only did Blaze not react, but he was also clamped under Blaze's armpit.

"Are you still human? You have no feelings."

"Do you use the ticklish spot to determine whether someone is a human? After being broken several times by teacher Chiron, I don't feel anything anymore." Blaze shrugged, put chocolate in the pot, and began to heat it skillfully to melt it.

"You know, I usually won't be polite to you, because I believe you will find opportunities in crises."

"Humph, humph~ Of course I'll tell you!"

Herbie raised his eyebrows, struggled down from Blaze's armpit, and put his hands on his hips.

"But you shouldn't underestimate Lord Hebi. Tell me, what big deal is it that you're afraid of dragging me down with?"

"A war between three great kingdoms."

"Cough! Cough cough—" Herbie coughed violently a few times, his expression stiffened. "It's really a big trouble. Interfering in the war is not what [Hermes's Travel Hat] should do, but I can think of a way..."

"I have thought of a way. This way can only be done by the [Hermes's Traveling Hat]."

The corner of Herbie's eye twitched. Blaze's "Only You Can Do This" today didn't sound happy at all. Instead, it sounded a bit scary.

"If possible, I hope you can be more polite."

"Actually, it's like this..."

Blaze talked about his [Fight Contest], he had mentioned this plan several times, so he had already streamlined and improved his idea a lot.

"This is feasible, feasible is feasible, possible is possible, not bad is not bad..."

Herbie crossed his arms in great confusion, twisting his body uncomfortably. This was truly something that only the [Hermes' Traveling Cap] could achieve, and it was indeed related to world peace, but doing so would undoubtedly come at a high price.

She understood the pressure of "only he can do it".

boom--

The door of the deserted chocolate workshop was flung open, followed by a loud shout.

"Herbie Hermes, your eyes are as small as your breasts!"

"Ark AI Jasmine." Veins bulged on Hebie's forehead. He turned his head sharply as if he had not heard it for the first time and waved his fist at Jasmine who was floating towards him like a ghost.

"Why are you always targeting me?"

"I'm not picking on you." Jasmine shook her head seriously, then moved closer to Herbie and said, "I'm just supporting everyone except you."

Although Blazer was confused, Herbie immediately understood what Jasmine meant by support.

"Then can I ask who has a higher priority among the people you support?"

"God codename: Athena, her fertility urge appears to be the highest."

"Pfft - you are really broken," Herbie covered his mouth and laughed, then shouted to Blaze, "Blaze, Jasmine is broken again, fix her with your fists."

"How dare you, little dwarf, frame my performance in front of Blaze!"

"You're still attacking my figure!"
