"Felice my dear these are our guests Levin, Jaana, and Elvire. Jaana and Elvire are the ones who will stay with us and I showed them the way here but nothing else so if you would like to take them for a stroll later and show the good sides of our city also." Willard said and Felice turned around and answered.
"Oh welcome here I just got the food and will soon start to prepare the dinner for everyone. But nice to meet you let's talk more at dinner. But one thing I can say for now is that even when my husband only says things in a negative way about the city there are lots of activities here also, but of course, they have been lessened now because we are under threat." Felice answered and focused on the food again.
"Oh, Elvire and I will gladly help you out with preparing the dinner. Just say, and we will follow your orders then. The men can go to the living room to talk about what they like, I guess. Right, honey?" Jaana said and asked Levin.
"Blaaah girl's work, dad, let's train. Oh, I want to see who's father is better in the fighting." Rolfe suggested and got a light kick from Felice.
"Still, you enjoy eating it, or if you don't, you can always do your food then," Felice said, and Rolfe did quickly run towards the living room still shouting.
"It's boring and dad and mister, let's go already! Let's train!"
"Please go easy on me as I'm just ordinary soldier, and you are a paladin," Willard said and watched Levin with pleading eyes.
"Oh dear, it's good for you that you will get beaten up now, and then how otherwise would you get stronger? And it's good for Rolfe to see that his father isn't the strongest." Felice said with a light hint of mockery in her voice, and there was a slight smirk on her face, and Willard felt like he is betrayed by his wife.
"Oh, this will be interesting, and good training before dinner will raise the deliciousness of the food, and it's good for you. Willard let's go already; your son is waiting for us already, and don't worry, I won't go easy on you at all." Levin said and smirked towards Willard that felt even more betrayed and thought how he would survive from this hell.
In the end, Levin half dragged him to the living room and then out of the house towards the training fields that Rolfe was enthusiastically showing towards Levin and guiding him.
Willard got even more depressed as now even his son was against him, and what did poor old he do to deserve this he asked from himself.
For Levin, it was a good time to show his strength and that if something happened to his wife or daughter, Willard would know what to expect then as he would do anything to get revenge for someone harmed them or did anything at all to them.
At the same time, the kitchen was busy as today they were going to celebrate and prepare as much as the food that they could, especially those kinds that you could put away and store for a long time.
But the main dishes had fish, pork, beef and chicken with various kinds of vegetables with them.
There were also simple but different kinds of sauces, bread, and cheese in the table.
So everyone could take something they like and as much as they could.
But there was also simple fruit pie for dessert, but all of this took so much time to prepare that they didn't have much time to have a break.
And for Elvire, this was a whole new experience as she had never done anything else than roasted meat in a campfire, maybe sometimes a soup from the various herbs and wild vegetables. So she was watching mostly and cutting the vegetables ready before she got an idea.
"Mom and aunt Felice, can I make a chicken soup from the leftover chicken as an appetizer?"
"Dear, that's a splendid idea; what would I do when I would have such a cute daughter like you." Felice pinched Elvire's cheeks, and she got shy and blushed. Felice just laughed and asked from Jaana.
"Is it alright for your daughter to make the dish?"
"I don't have nothing against it as long as you are okay with it as you cannot store it that long in the cold locker" Jaana answered as even when they had cold lockers that worked with magic stones to kww6tjw cold air in the soup would last for a week or so or depends how much there will be it.
"Oh, don't worry about it; we will eat it then if there is a lot of it. "So Elvire say what do you need, and we will help you now," Felice answered and started to prepare herself.
Elvire still gathered herself up but got excited by the idea so much that when she started to list the items, she needed Jaana, and Felice almost couldn't keep up with speed.
