Chapter 518: The Light of Dawn Triste
As the wooden woman heard that, she was glad: âSince you have yet to be worn, you will have the honor of being added to my wardrobe, and not my collectionâ
âWe are honored to serve you, miladyâ the bikini and wings both said.
Gu Qing Shanâs expression remained unmoved while he silently sighed from relief.
âBoy, how was it, were we convincing enough?â the bikini silently sent its voice asking.
âVery convincingâ Gu Qing Shan sent his voice to reply.
The pink wings also sent its voice: âPerhaps you do not know this esteemed lady, but being able to become her clothing is an honor many of us would die for. Thatâs why weâre grateful to you and donât want anything bad to happen to youâ
âThen we are even, thank you very muchâ Gu Qing Shan spoke.
It was now that the wooden woman smiled at Gu Qing Shan, saying: âNormally, I wouldnât accept gifts from others like this, but your gifts really do fit me very wellâŠâ
âPlease accept themâ Gu Qing Shan spoke.
The wooden woman nodded, waved her hands and stored the two fashion collectorâs items away.
ââ-she received Gu Qing Shanâs gifts without hesitation.
âBoy of the Iron Fist Club, you really are considerate, even your gifts are so precious that my mood has greatly improvedâ
âIt is my honorâ
âTell me what you want, if itâs within my abilities, I will consider itâ
âI was too late for the call of the Bramble Birds, but I have to goâ
âSo itâs about that⊠the relation between the Light of Dawn Triste and I are quite decent, right now, she must be at the Bramble Bird little princessâ coming of age banquetââ- the banquet should last for 3 days and nightsâ
The wooden woman stood up.
âLetâs goâ she said, âcome with me to the banquet, Iâll ask her to let you inâ
Gu Qing Shan was ecstatic, clasping his fist: âIâm very gratefulâ
âWhat about me?â the big rooster hesitantly asked.
âDo you want to stay here in my room or something? Come with me to the banquet as wellâ the wooden woman glanced at him.
âIt will be my honor!â the big rooster was also excited.
He silently gave Gu Qing Shan a thumbs up.
He didnât think he would be able to close their distance through helping someone else, what an unimaginable harvest.
Aboul Hotel.
The entire hotel was immersed in an elegant and graceful tune.
The guests were all dressed formally, either bowing or curtsying to greet one another, speaking with a low tone of voice and walking with light steps.
The Bramble Birds are aristocrats of the Mystic Zones who were very keen on their etiquette and required strict manners for everything.
A variety of exquisite cuisines were presented in delicate trays, kept frozen in a mass of colorful mist.
This was the Temporal Fog from the Mystic Zones, an exceptional item for preserving food.
Only when you put the food in your mouth will the fog disperse, releasing their original taste on your tongue.
This ensured that every food would always be kept at their most ideal conditions throughout the entire long banquet.
While walking, the big rooster tilted his head, whispering to Gu Qing Shan: âI really canât stand this kind of acting from the Bramble Birdsâ
âWhat kind of acting?â Gu Qing Shan asked, confused.
âLook over there, a 12-layer cake, and over there, that gray bag is called the Infinite sweets bag, every table of every banquet, all sorts of exquisite cuisines are presentââ but the Bramble Birds have never taken a single biteâ
âTheyâre the hosts after all, maybe theyâve already eaten?â
âThey havenât, they consider eating anything during a solemn occasion to be a rude behaviorâ
âThen these foods here areâŠâ
âFor the guestsâ
âWhatâs wrong with that?â
The big rooster bulged his eyes out: âNothing. But whenever they see a guest eating, they would always show a prideful smile, as if the other party was committing some sort of grave mistake in public, while they were gracious enough to forgive that rude behaviorââ- isnât that kind of acting nauseating?â
âLower your voiceâ the wooden woman turned around to glare at him.
The big rooster went quiet.
The wooden woman brought Gu Qing Shan and the big rooster through the large banquet hall, the small banquet hall, the ballroom and finally reached the innermost green room.
Two Bramble Bird royal guards stood at the door with cold expressions.
Seeing the three of them, the two guards greeted: âOur apologies, this is the royal resting room, pleaseââ-â
The wooden woman showed an invitation held between her fingers.
Seeing this invitation, the two guards quickly took a step back and turned sideways to greet her: âHeart of Thousand Woods, Spirit of the Holy Tree, welcomeâ
âWhoâs inside now?â
âTristeâ
âOnly her?â
âThere are also some other esteemed guestsâ
The wooden woman was surprised: âHm? The other members of the Bramble royalty arenât here? Where are they?â
The two guards seem troubled.
They exchanged glances.
âAlright, I canât be bothered to ask about your internal matters, Iâm looking for Tristeâ the wooden woman waved her hand dismissively and spoke.
The guards sighed of relief and stood back to make way for her.
The wooden woman brought Gu Qing Shan and the big rooster inside.
While they were walking down the long hallway, they could already hear intermittent chatter coming from the room ahead.
Since this was such a closely guarded place, those who could enter all knew each other very well, so they didnât worry too much about others listening in.
âWhat? You still havenât found it?â
âHow, with so many people dispatched, why havenât you found it?â
âI donât think anything will happen?â
âReally now? Then where did it go?â
Gu Qing Shan could hear the stifled chatter.
The air was filled with a sense of dread.
But when they went through the door and officially stood in front of Triste, all the chatter had gone away.
Everyone was adhering closely to the most basic etiquette.
The Light of Dawn Triste was an amiable woman.
Her figure was tall and slender, she had emerald green eyes and brown flowing long hair.
She was currently discussing something with a few aristocratic young ladies.
âTriste, Iâm hereâ the wooden woman said.
âAh? I remember youâve always hated banquets, what gave me this honor today?â
Triste smiled, greeting the wooden woman as well as Gu Qing Shan and the big rooster.
âThereâs a small favor I need to ask of youâ
âHow rare for there to be something you need to ask of othersâ
âItâs related to youâ
After some small talk, they sat down.
The wooden woman explained everything.
Triste looked at Gu Qing Shan, asking: âIs that true? You were locked up? Thatâs why you didnât answer my call?â
âIndeed, this was an accident. In truth, I would be more than honored to serve youâ Gu Qing Shan sincerely said.
âSince she had asked this of me, it would be rude for me not to give you this honorâ
Saying so, Triste took out a round token, throwing it to Gu Qing Shan.
Gu Qing Shan received the token.
It was a silver medal with Triste depicted in the middle, smiling at Gu Qing Shan.
âHaving this medal means that youâve answered my callâ Triste gently told him, âfurthermore, inside the medal there is already a prize almost equal to first placeâ
Gu Qing Shan held the medal with both hands, saying: âThank you for your generosity, but truthfully, Iâd rather be granted entry to your worldâ
âWhy is that?â Triste asked.
âBecause a friend of mine had entered and Iâm worried for her safetyâ
âThere is no need to worry about thatâ Triste softly smiled again: âI have already set up a Law that disallows death, anyone who received even a small wound instantly be warped outâ
She was looking straight at Gu Qing Shan, her emerald green eyes were clear, giving off an impression of staring deep into an abyss as she looked at him.
Hearing Triste, Gu Qing Shan couldnât help but nod.
The wooden woman also commented: âBoy, with such a strict protection Law, you can be assuredâ
Gu Qing Shan arranged his words briefly, wanting to say something else.
Triste continued: âMy collection world had already entered a sealed state, so even I would have to spend a great amount of effort to open it again. I believe it would be more preferable for you to wait here. I believe everything will have ended perfectly in half a day, and your friend would also leaveâ
âAt that time, tell me her name and I will directly transport her to youâ
After Triste said so much, Gu Qing Shan had nothing left to say.
She gave him the medal, the rewards almost equivalent to that of first place, guarantees that Su Xue Er will be safe and even offered to help transport her directly here.
Even a shameless person wouldnât be able to ask for more than this.
Furthermore, if even a flesh wound was not allowed in Tristeâs collection world, then Su Xue Er would definitely return safely.
And then, a few words were scrolling past the War God UI.
Even without checking, Gu Qing Shan knows that his Quest had been completed.
The System considers the medal to be the requirements for completing the Quest.
In order words, he had already answered the call of the Bramble Birds and was about to receive a new War God function.
Gu Qing Shan only thought about in a breathâs time.
Everything seems to be going swimmingly.
He then stood up, clasping his hand to Triste: âThank you very muchâ
âThere is no need. Since this lady herself had shown up for you, I could not afford to be any less seriousâ Triste smiled and told him.
She then grabbed the wooden womanâs hand and said: âCome with me for a bit, thereâs something I need your help withâ
âWhat happened?â the wooden woman asked.
âA very headache-inducing matterâ
The wooden woman then stood up, following Triste outside.
She then remembered something and turned to the big rooster: âYou come as well, if something happens, you might be able to helpâ
âVery wellâ
The big rooster followed suit.
The wooden woman looked at Gu Qing Shan: âYou stay here, once everything is over, weâll return togetherâ
âYesâ
Gu Qing Shan replied.
The wooden woman and Triste left side by side.
The big rooster followed behind them, but turned back to blink at Gu Qing Shan, gesturing his congratulations for Gu Qing Shanâs matter being dealt with nicely.
Gu Qing Shan couldnât help but smile, raising a thumbs up to the big rooster.
âThank you, Mr. Chicken, youâve really helped me a lot this time. I will definitely treat you to a meal next time we get a chanceâ he sent his voice over.
Hearing that, the big rooster looked up with satisfaction.
âDonât you forget it, see you laterâ he also sent his voice.
The big rooster came with the two ladies and left the room.
At this point, the only people left in the room were Gu Qing Shan and the aristocratic young ladies.
