As A Cardinal, I Don't Do Overtime Chapter 182

San Lorenzo.
At Monn's mansion on Bell Street.
In the dining room.
Ace stood up from her seat.
She clapped her hands to attract the attention of Monn and the others.
"Don't worry, everyone. I had already expected this situation, so I secretly hid a portion in the kitchen."
Ace's tone was playful.
But to Monn and the others, it sounded like a heavenly voice.
Monn and the others looked at Ace with shining eyes.
They were like kittens waiting to be fed.
Even Asher and Eiffel, who had already finished eating, had their eyes light up.
They looked at Ace with expectant eyes.
But in an instant, they were mercilessly suppressed by Ace.
Ace was expressionless. "There's no portion for the two of you."
They had already finished everyone's share, yet they still wanted to eat more?
How nice of them.
The two elves instantly shriveled up.
But thinking about how Eiffel had said that he had a small appetite,
Asher's fighting spirit was instantly aroused.
If Eiffel hadn't come,
Asher would have been able to eat more.
That's right, it was all Eiffel's fault!
Asher instantly thought of the culprit who ruined her dinner.
Her gaze instantly focused on Eiffel's face.
Eiffel was stunned.
He was a little confused.
He didn't know what his Princess was going to do next.
He suddenly sighed sadly in his heart.
Sigh, other princesses were all so ladylike, so capable,
So how did the elves end up with such a silly thing?
Asher looked at Eiffel's expression.
She raised her eyebrows.
Are you offended?
She looked at Eiffel suspiciously.
She said, "Are you talking badly about me in your heart?"
Eiffel was shocked.
Could it be that the Princess could read minds?
Otherwise, why would she suddenly ask him this question.

But after thinking about it carefully,
Eiffel immediately let out a sigh of relief.
Looking at Asher's doubtful expression,.
He knew that Asher only had a feeling.
But this feeling still made Eiffel jump.
Eiffel was surprised and puzzled.
A smile quickly appeared on his face.
He said, "How can that be? You're my respected Princess."
Asher instantly confirmed that Eiffel was indeed thinking badly of her.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have said it in such a tone.
But Eiffel didn't admit it, so there was nothing Asher could do.
Asher could only continue to be serious. "Give me the money in your pocket."
Eiffel asked, "Why?"
"Because you made me eat a lot less rice!"
Speaking of this, Asher got angry.
She used to be able to eat all of the rice by herself.
But after Eiffel came, she had to split it with him.
How could this satisfy Asher?
It just so happened that she hadn't gotten Eiffel's money yet,
So she took advantage of this opportunity to get it.
When Eiffel heard his own Princess' bold and shameless words,
He was speechless.
This was obviously used by Pope Monn to entertain guests.
Which included Eiffel.
What did it have to do with you, Asher?
You actually thought that this entire meal was for you.
How shameless!
How embarrassing for the elves!
Immediately, Eiffel opened his eyes and shouted,
"Asher!"
Hearing her name, Asher was stunned for a moment.
Seeing that Eiffel called her by her name,
Asher's heart tightened.
In the Elf Forest,
Once Eiffel called her name, it meant nothing good.
Something bad was definitely going to happen.
As expected.
Eiffel's lecture was immediately delivered.
"Asher, your behavior is too shameless!"
Monn and the others ate the new dishes that Ace had brought out.

They watched the commotion.
Seeing Eiffel criticize Asher for being shameless,
Monn and the others nodded with deep emotion.
But in the next moment, they were even more speechless.
"This is clearly what Pope Monn uses to receive guests like me. It's already good enough that I gave you half of it. Yet, you decided to criticize me?"
They only agreed with Eiffel's righteous words.
Hearing this made Monn and the others extremely speechless.
You're not a good elf either!
So the elves are all such shameless fellows!
Asher and Eiffel did not know that the few people present had already labeled the elves as shameless.
If they knew, they would definitely feel like crying.
If Her Majesty, the Elf Queen knew, wouldn't she take their lives?
Of course, the two elves who were confronting each other did not have the time.
Hearing Eiffel's first sentence, Asher lowered her head guiltily.
She realised that she had been a little shameless these days.
And she had been eating for free.
Thinking of this, Asher couldn't help but feel even more ashamed.
She almost shrank into her clothes.
But when she heard Eiffel's second sentence, she was instantly stunned.
What do you mean that Pope Monn used it to receive you?
And it was already good enough that you gave half of it to me?
Hearing this, Ace instantly became angry.
She was about to pounce on Eiffel.
Unfortunately, in the face of the disparity in strength,
Eiffel was mercilessly suppressed.
Eiffel turned his head.
Only then did he remember that there was still a group of humans watching him.
He said awkwardly, "I'm sorry, my Princess is a little mischievous."
Monn and the others had no words.
Soon, the whole night was spent in joking and playing.
The next morning.
After breakfast.
Eiffel, who was already dressed, looked at Monn and the others, who were still dressed in casual clothes.
He was puzzled and asked, "Aren't you going to the Holy Church?"
Monn leaned against the recliner in the courtyard.
He shook the fruit juice made by Ace herself.
Facing the morning light,
He took a slow sip.
Then, he said, "It's not time to go to work yet."
Go to work?
This was not the first time Eiffel had heard this word.
But he still could not understand it.
After they finished their breakfast, the elves began to busy themselves with their tasks.
Even their Queen left earlier and came back later than anyone else.
But this was the first time he had heard of Pope Monn's system.
He didn't agree with it.
What if something happened when Pope Monn wasn't at work?
Although he didn't agree, Eiffel didn't question other people's rules.
He could only wait for Monn to go to work.
Finally, when Eiffel was about to go back to sleep,.
Monn finally got to work.
At nine in the morning,
Monn arrived at the Holy Church on time with Asher and the others.
