Chapter 264
As a result, eighty years later, Fulian, a slow guy, still thinks that it was her charm that made Simmel faint in the first place. Only Ai, Aize and Haita know what really made Simmel fall to the ground. Simmel has never expressed his love for Fulian.
Fulilian walked away from the man in despair, and then was attacked by Ash.
"Kid, why are you unhappy? Do you need to get into the arms of big sister and let her comfort you?"
"...I'm older than you, and a lot older, Qie, so I should be your big sister."
"Really, if you only use age as a criterion to judge the so-called 'mature big sister', it can only be said that you still don't understand human beings enough."
Supporting his cheek with his hand, Ai's half-open eyes were charming, and his lazy tone seemed to contain some kind of magic, which would make ordinary men feel their bones soften the moment they heard it.
Feilun and Shutarke, who were the closest, turned red just listening to Ash's voice.
Only Fulian was staring at Ai's face in a daze.
"Huh? What's wrong?"
Ai asked, his tone calm, completely devoid of the flirtatious tone just now.
"nothing."
Fulilian shook her head, then looked at Ai's face and whispered, "It just feels like... I haven't seen you in your current appearance, Ai, for a long time."
Ai was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and then a gentle smile like a snow-chun slowly bloomed on her face.
"Looking at me, do you remember the days when we traveled together?"
"Not only that, but also earlier, when you asked me for magic."
"That was at least a hundred years ago, right?"
Ai smiled and whispered: "It feels like it's been a long time... I almost don't remember it."
Fulian tilted her head, "It's only been more than a hundred years, right?"
Ai's bright eyes blinked, and then slowly closed, with a smile on her lips.
"...Same."
…
More than ten days have passed since Qi and others arrived in this city.
In other words, Fulian has already completed one-third to one-half of her part-time job this time.
In Ai's hand, a bracelet floated as if it was not affected by gravity. When the last fragment attached to the bracelet under Ai's control, even the cracks disappeared.
After examining it carefully and confirming that there were really no cracks, Jicai smiled and handed the bracelet in his hand to an old woman, "Here, this is your bracelet, I have repaired it."
"Thank you, little girl."
The old woman took the bracelet with both hands, her rough and calloused hands gently caressed the bracelet, her tone was complex and slightly sentimental.
"It's really... it's been completely repaired. It's like new... the magic is really amazing."
"Since it is a very important thing, it must be protected."
According to the old woman, this bracelet was given to her by her deceased wife when she got married. It is a treasure that is as important to her as life.
It's not a valuable jewelry. I'm afraid even if you want to give it to others, no one will want it. After all, she and her husband didn't have much money when they got married, so even this bracelet was bought from a street vendor.
However, this was the only thought that the old woman's wife gave her before her death.
After the bracelet broke, the old woman didn't know what to do. She went to many places and said there was no way to repair it. Although it could be repaired with magic, that method cost too much money.
After Ai learned about it, she wanted to help and used magic to easily repair the old woman's bracelet.
To express her gratitude, the old woman gave him a large basket of fruits, which he happily accepted.
"What an enviable feeling... As expected, this is called journey. In the Fairy Kingdom, you will only encounter ungrateful and unrepentant beast fairies."
I picked up an apple, wiped it with my white sleeve, then opened my mouth and took a bite. The sweet juice immediately filled my mouth, bringing a huge sense of happiness.
"So sweet..."
Holding her face in her hands, Qie showed a happy expression, as if pink flowers were slowly blooming behind her, gathering into a sea of pink flowers.
Qie's footsteps were steady, and it was obvious that he was not wandering around aimlessly.
Not long after, Ash came to the restaurant where Fulilian worked again.
"Fulillian! I'm interrupting again!"
This has almost become Ashe's greatest pleasure in this city. Basically, she comes here every day to see what Fulilian is doing. Even if Shutark and Feilun are not interested, she will happily run here. Besides, this place The food in the store also tastes good, and it's great to order a few dishes to satisfy your appetite while sitting here.
However, this time, something seems to be different.
As soon as Ai entered the door, all the staff in the store focused on Ai, including Fulian.
Because he was a colleague of Fulilian, Ai had already become familiar with these people. As Ai came here more and more often, these staff members were almost used to Ai's arrival.
That's right, they shouldn't have such a big reaction to Ashe's arrival.
Something is wrong...
After using [Fairy Eyes] to see their inner changes, Ai had the intention to retreat.
"Ah! Miss Qi wants to run away!"
"Come on! Don't let her escape!"
Because there were not many customers at this time, several waitresses who were not very busy directly stopped Jian who was planning to retreat temporarily.
After that, a woman came out of the kitchen and walked towards Jian aggressively.
Jian also knew this person. She was the dessert chef in this store. Her name was Ruianna. The parfait that Jian ate here last time was made by this person. It tasted pretty good.
"It must be you!" Ruianna said this ambiguous sentence, and Jian's answer was...
"Although I don't know what happened, you must have recognized the wrong person, right?"
"No, I didn't recognize the wrong person! Fulilian said that you are the best dessert maker in the world. The most important thing is that she made such an evaluation after tasting the dessert I made!"
Ruianna hugged her arms in front of her chest and said with an unyielding momentum: "I want to know how delicious the dessert that can get such an evaluation from her is."
Hearing this, Jian stared at someone squatting at the back of the crowd with a pair of dead fish eyes and glanced at someone who was trying his best to cover up his presence.
So it was you who did this, Fulilian?
After a few days of getting along, Jian knew that Ruianna's dream was to become the best pastry chef in the world. Ruianna was a very unyielding and straightforward person. When Fulilian praised Jian after tasting her dessert, it was conceivable how upset Ruianna was.
After that, since Ruianna wanted to see it, Jian had no reason to object, so he showed his skills.
Good news, Ruianna was convinced after just one bite, and she admitted that the dessert made by Jian was delicious.
Bad news, Ruianna also wanted to make such delicious desserts, so she was crazy about asking Jian to be her teacher, and she pestered Jian for ten days.
Because Ruianna, who was more stubborn than a cow, couldn't be persuaded, Jian promised to teach her something, so Jian and others stayed in this city for more than a month.

Chapter 463 Blue Feather Bird.
30 years after the death of the brave Xin Meier.
Jian and the others had just passed through a forest and were now walking on a wide road.
"The weather has become so cold recently..."
Although he had put on the thickest clothes, Xu Talke still tried to warm up his body by rubbing his arms, although it was basically ineffective.
"After crossing the mountain in front, we can reach the next village."
Fulilian led the way in front, looking at the sky and judging the time by observing the position of the sun. "From this point of view, we should be able to settle in the village in front before night falls... right? Jian."
"Don't ask me, I don't know." Jian said nonchalantly: "Have you forgotten? I have the attribute of being a road idiot. I can get lost even if I have a map in my hand."
"Huh? Master Jian is a road idiot?"
Philen showed a surprised expression, because they had traveled together for more than two years, but Jian had never shown any signs of being a road idiot. "This is the first time I heard of it..."
There was a hint of curiosity in Xiu Talke's expression, and he raised his hand and pointed in a direction.
"Then, Jian, do you know which way is south or north?"
"...It's north. I'm just a little bit directionally challenged. I'm not confused about directions. Do you think I'm a moron?"
The irritable old sister Jian raised her staff and swung it at Hugh Tark, but Hugh Tark subconsciously ducked his head. When their eyes met, both of them were stunned.
"You still dare to hide?"
"I was wrong, I was wrong! Don't hit me anymore!"
"If admitting your mistakes is useful, what do you need the police for? Stand still and let me buff you!"
Jian and Hugh Tark ran around Philen and Fulilian four times, and then Hugh Tark ran away along the avenue with his head in his arms, and Jian followed closely behind Hugh Tark.
Philen and Fulilian were left standing there. After looking at each other, Fulilian's expression remained calm, but Philen sighed helplessly.
"Really... Master Xutark and Master Jian are already not young, but they still act like children."
"Isn't this good? Since we are traveling together, this should be the atmosphere."
Flillian's mouth corners raised a few pixels, as if picking up some dusty happy memories in her mind, "Xinmeier and Haita often quarreled like this."
The quarrel between Jian and Xutark was just a small episode during the journey.
It was the swelling of several small lumps on Xutark's head that made him look quite funny, and the tears hanging in the corners of his eyes that never wanted to fall were silently telling Xutark's grievances.
Continuing to move forward, Jian and others were attracted by something on the road.
It was an overturned carriage, and the horses and merchants who were supposed to be with it were no longer here.
"It's a mess..."
Flillian narrowed her eyes, not knowing what she was thinking.
"There's no blood."
Xiutalk checked closer and made a calm judgment, "However, the goods on it were severely damaged. The food inside... should be eaten up. The carriage was also destroyed. Two-thirds of it was destroyed. It should be caused by monsters, right?"
Xiutalk is a warrior. Unlike magicians like Fulilian and Feilun, if they are approached within a certain distance, they will find it difficult to guarantee their own safety. Moreover, Xiutalk's health bar is thicker than that of ordinary magicians.
"I don't feel the breath of death nearby."
Ash lowered his eyelids and said with some relief: "It seems that a caravan was attacked by monsters. The good news is that no one died. It was probably a monster that was not very ferocious."
There are monsters like gem worms that only feed on gems and gold and will not actively harm humans. Naturally, there are other monsters that are less harmful to humans.
"Maybe they are eyeing the things on the carriage of this caravan."
Fulilian said calmly: "This is not incomprehensible. After all, it is almost winter. Some herbivorous monsters can't find food, so they will attack the passing caravans, and the surrounding farmlands are also easy to be targeted by them."
After walking forward for a while, they also found the farmland that had been ravaged, just as Fulilian analyzed.
"Although it is a relatively rare vegetarian among monsters, it is also harmful to humans."
棣 sighed: "If you leave it alone, casualties will occur sooner or later."
Soon after, 梣 and others arrived at the village.
This village is just as expected by the villagers, being invaded by monsters and causing headaches.
Not only will the farmland be attacked, but even the caravans will be attacked. After a long time, no caravans will come, and they will not be able to sell their crops to the nearby city.
"Dear adventurer, I hope you can lend us a hand."
Nicola, the woman who represented the villagers to talk to the villagers, asked so, and the sincerity in her tone was touching.
Of course, the villagers would definitely accept this commission. After all, if you see someone in trouble and need help, you must lend a hand, right? If Xin Meier was here, he would definitely make the same choice.
Fulilian asked: "What is the reward?"
"I'm very sorry, our village is not rich."
This is natural. The caravan that helped them deliver the crops to the city was attacked, and it was inevitable that they were short of money.
"Do you have a magic book?"
"No."
"No?"
