Summoned into a Magical World at Max Level - Chapter 24

Chapter 24: Your Majesty, It’s Snowing!

“Trish, come and serve the shredded potatoes!”

At that moment, Rennes’ shout came from the kitchen. Rennes was apparently in a good mood today.

“Coming!”

When Trish walked out of the kitchen, she brought another plate of food with her.

Lifa inspected the miraculous dish called the “shredded potatoes”. The strong fragrance of the newly-served dish stimulated Lifa’s taste buds crazily.

She turned to look at Rennes’ back. She could hardly wait any longer.

She swore, if Rennes and herself were the only ones who were there, she would finish every plate as soon as it arrived at the table.

She never thought poison could be so delicious, and she never expected Rennes to have such superb cooking skills either!

He was intelligent, handsome, and was proficient in both combat and cooking…

Thinking of the many good points that Rennes possessed, the admiration in the depth of Lifa’s eyes grew stronger.

The woman who married Lord Rennes in the future would be so lucky!

As Lifa tasted the delicious food, some strange thoughts arose in her mind.

After some time, Rennes finally brought the last dish to the table amidst the sound of Trish’s laughter.

There were now eighteen different dishes on the long table, all made with potatoes.

While Rennes was cooking, Trish had wiped away her saliva countless times!

When Rennes saw Trish’s pitiful expression, he laughed and said, “Go on, take a seat at the table too!”

“Really? Yay! Thank you, Lord Rennes!” Trish beamed from ear to ear. If there was no one else present, she would definitely give Rennes a big kiss.

The other two maids standing at the side were so envious to see Trish taking a seat at the table.

It was obvious that the delicious potatoes had stimulated everyone’s taste buds.

Rennes did not even have to say anything; Lifa and Trish, who had held themselves back for a long time, immediately picked up their chopsticks and dug in. They could wait no longer.

They only stopped eating when they were too full to eat any more.

Looking at the mess of cups and plates on the table, Lifa leaned back on her chair and rubbed her bulging belly in satisfaction.

“Lord Rennes, how did you do it? It’s truly amazing!” Lifa looked at Rennes with passionate eyes.

“I’ve never had such delicious food. If we can spread the magic potatoes to the north, we will finally have a solution to the problem of food and transportation that has troubled the kingdom for many years,” Lifa praised.

“The potatoes can be eaten when they’re ripe. Moreover, these magic potatoes have very low requirements when it comes to growing environment.

“They can be planted all year round. Even in the cold north, an acre of land can produce at least 300 pounds of potatoes,” Rennes said with a smile.

“Moreover, I’m the only one who knows how to cultivate magical plants, so the magical potatoes can be considered a specialty of the Noah Kingdom. I’ll personally go to the north and select some mages to popularize this technique.”

Feeling the mysterious light spots in his body suddenly growing in number, the smile on Rennes’ face became even wider.

Evidently, the emergence of the magic food – potato – would become a major event that would change the world.

“When do you plan to go, Lord Rennes? I’ll inform the northern officials so that they can prepare to receive you in advance!” said Lifa seriously.

“Erm… in two days!” Rennes looked out of the window and said thoughtfully.

Two days later.

A procession of wagons carrying dozens of people drove out of the northern gate of the imperial capital and headed for the northern region of the kingdom.

This trip was kept secret.

The residents of the imperial capital thought the convoy was just a noble going out on a trip. After all, it was very normal for a noble to go out with 50 or 60 people.

Lifa stood on the palace’s watchtower and watched the convoy carrying Rennes gradually getting further and further until they turned into a white dot, then disappeared completely.

…

After Rennes’ departure, Lifa returned to her normal schedule as the Queen.

Time passed in the blink of an eye.

Two months later.

Early one morning, Lifa came to the palace’s watchtower once again. Looking north, she recalled the first time she met Lord Rennes.

She could not help but smile.

Suddenly, a piece of crystal-clear object fell on her head. The cold sensation it brought pulled Lifa back from her beautiful memories.

Lifa subconsciously took it off her head and placed it in her hand. It was an exquisite, beautiful, hexagonal ice crystal.

“It’s snowing!”

Her eyes widened in surprise. She became as happy as a child.

Lifa had been waiting for this snow for a long time.

The Noah Kingdom, which had gone through a lot of suffering, was about to welcome new vitality in a new year.

She looked towards the northernmost part of the kingdom.

“It should be about time Lord Rennes arrives in Iron Armor City!” Lifa muttered to herself.

Iron Armor City, the provincial capital of the Cromwell Province, nicknamed the ‘Capital of the North’.

Lifa was filled with anticipation. She was looking forward to seeing what kind of waves the potatoes would cause in the northern region.

This would be the blow of the horn that welcomed in a new year for the Noah Kingdom, signaling that the Noah Kingdom would become bigger and stronger in the coming year!

“Your Majesty, it’s snowing!”

A maid walked over with an umbrella in her hand.

“Let’s go!” Lifa smiled and sneaked under the umbrella. They turned around and left.

Not long after, heavy snow began to fall, accompanied by a gust of cold wind.

The land was soon covered in snow. The Imperial City looked like a city of ice and snow.

Countless people walked out of their homes, catching snowflakes in their hands and laughing joyfully.

“Oh, it’s snowing! It’s snowing!”

“Thanks to the taxes being lowered this year, and both the north and the south welcomed in a bumper harvest. This is all thanks to the wise decision of Her Majesty the Queen and Lord Rennes!”

“Yes! Yes! Let’s us cheer for Her Majesty the Queen and Lord Rennes!”

…

The heavy snow turned the land silent until night fell. Only the light from the watchtower burned bright throughout the night.

At that moment, in the northeast part of the kingdom, at a border 550 kilometers away from the capital of the kingdom, the Noah Imperial City, a patrol team was treading on a thick layer of snow, walking forward with much difficulty against the cold wind.

There were more than ten people in the team. They were equipped with warm clothing, war horses, food, and other supplies.

These were hot-blooded youths who had been carefully selected from the southern region of the kingdom. After a short period of military training, they were sent to the kingdom’s border area to patrol.

The border defense mission was also one of the tasks that Lifa had specifically arranged before winter arrived.

Right now, this group of people was huffing and puffing as they gathered together, seemingly discussing something in a low voice.

“Anyone has any more fiery spirit? Let me have a sip to warm my body!”

“I’ve finished mine!”

“I’ve finished mine as well.”

“Peter, hang on for a bit longer. After this round of patrol, we’ll return to the sentry post.”

“Alright then. But have you heard? There are a lot of new refugees in the Norton Duchy. They even dare to snatch the food of the soldiers.”

“The Norton Duchy isn’t like our Noah Kingdom. We have Queen Lifa and Lord Rennes…”

“Yeah, it’s all thanks to Lord Rennes that we manage to defeat the Raytheon Empire. However, I heard that the new king of the Cinda Kingdom is a bloodthirsty king who likes to invade other countries.”

“Hehe, we have Lord Rennes in the Noah Kingdom. Would he dare to come?”
