Chapter 88 The Return
Early in the morning, Ju woke up from bed.

The cold air made him feel a little uncomfortable, and he could even feel the increasingly cold environment in his bed.

"what……"

He yawned and got up, feeling sleepy but unable to fall asleep.

As a result of being often called up by Lindsay to exercise together in the morning, he now easily wakes up early.

Is this considered a gain or a loss of comfortable sleep?
Thinking this, Ju turned his gaze and looked at another bed in the room, preparing to wake up his mother.

As a result, Dan's bed has long been empty.

"Mom...she went out too..."

Ju was stunned for a while, and then he came to his senses.

Today was not a day to go hunting. Logically speaking, his mother must still be lying in bed.

But just a week ago.

A group of spider monsters suddenly appeared in the forest. They attacked the farmland south of the town. Although they were repelled by the awakeners in the town in time, four farmers still died under the spider's fangs.

Because he lived in the south of the town, Ju had seen it with his own eyes.

The sight of the body being completely dissolved by the venom, leaving only the skin as a pocket, makes people shudder even thinking about it now.

It is also thanks to this incident.

The [Harvest Day] that the town was supposed to celebrate was completely ruined.

At the same time, even when he is not hunting, Dan will take the initiative to bring weapons and patrol near the farmland to ensure that the town will not be attacked by a new round.

"..."

Ju rubbed his eyes, got up from the bed and changed into clothes.

According to his mother's instructions, he practiced using his skills to control the water flow in the basin every day, and helped himself clean up in the morning.

Then he came to the center of the room.

On the edge of the extinguished pit, Ju found two pieces of dough that were still warm from the campfire, cut them open and sandwiched the blackened barbecue.

This is today's breakfast.

"Well... I really should find some time to learn how to cook with Brother Lin. Mom is too casual like this."

Ju was talking about the dissatisfaction of this morning.

Then he walked out with a shake of his head, checked the leather to be dried in the yard, and confirmed that there was nothing to do before he left the house.

Probably due to the sequelae of the previous Warcraft attack, Ju first went to take a look at the farmland in the south.

It is late autumn now, and there are not many people on the farmland this early in the morning.

However, he still found his mother's figure near the woods in the distance.

The female hunter was sitting on the branch of an oak tree. Probably because she was too sleepy, she leaned against the tree trunk behind her and closed her eyes slightly.

"I'm not afraid of catching a cold anymore..."

Ju shook his head, thinking about going back into the house to get a cloak for his mother.

As a result, before he could turn around and go back, he saw the huntress jumping down from the oak tree and waving in his direction.

...This is a greeting.

The huntress was just taking a nap, and her attention to the outside world was not low at all, which was fully worthy of her task of looking after the farmland.

"Hey!"

Ju jumped up and waved to his mother.

He saw Dan smiling with satisfaction, and then climbed up the oak tree nimbly, returning to his previous movements when he was pretending to sleep.

Make sure the huntress doesn't need her help with anything.

Ju turned around and went back. On the short return journey, he saw Joel walking in a hurry:
"Joel, it's so early, have you eaten?"

"ate!"

"Why are you here in the south of town?"

"Aren't you taking care of those precious plants for Lindsay?"

The two of them said hello and their figures moved away from each other.

Joel rushed to Finn's cabin to start taking care of the plants for the day.

But after taking two steps, Ju had some new ideas.

It’s been eleven days!

Lindsay and An Rui set out together more than ten days ago.

From the mouths of his mother and other awakened people, Ju knew that the two went to the world of Black Mountain to explore the reasons for the changes around the hidden border.

Thinking of this, Ju lowered his head and bit his lip.He was a little envious.

Listening to the adventure stories of his father and mother since he was a child, his biggest wish can be said to be to break through the blockade of Montenegro.

But the reality is that he doesn't even know what the edge of the world looks like.

Lindsay, who studied and grew up with him, has already had the opportunity to step into the world of Montenegro with Anrui.

Even if the two of them are not going to challenge the dragon beast.

But this difference in reality still made Ju's heart palpitate.

If he could also...

"Oh, by the way, Brother Lin has been away for more than ten days!"

"Ms. Hongyue is alone in the church. She should also need help from young people, right?"

Ju is still a kind-hearted child at heart. He did not become jealous because of this throbbing, but instead noticed Hong Yue who was alone.

This concern is no joke!

He still remembered that two years ago, he had the opportunity to visit the cemetery fence that Lindsay and Hongyue built together.

How to describe...

I can’t say it’s completely useless, but I feel like it might not be of much use.

In the past two years, Lindsay's skills have become much better than before.

But only Hong Yue is left, and now winter is about to begin. This is probably not something that makes people feel optimistic.

With this thought in mind, Ju returned to the house, grabbed some simple tools and walked towards the church.

Lady Red Moon still guards the chapel.

Upon hearing Ju's intention, she immediately thanked the young man in front of her and offered to pay him.

How could Ju accept Hongyue's money?
After talking to the nun of the Death School for a full hour, he finally decided to stay here and have lunch as payment.

Then came the nails and boards.

Torch ran around the cemetery and began repairing the fence that needed repair.

This work is quite cumbersome.

The church is located at the edge of the town. Although there are no monsters intruding on weekdays, wild animals that come inexplicably will often make the place miserable.

It didn't take long for Ju to find the area that needed repair and start working on it.

Then while searching for nails, he saw two figures appearing in the distance:
"Brother Lin, Uncle An Rui...ah?"

Ju instantly lost his voice.

When he saw An Rui's left arm was empty, he dropped the hammer and nails in his hand and rushed over with a panicked expression:
"Lord Anrui, what's wrong with you!"

An Rui shook his head nonchalantly:

"It's just some danger. It's nothing serious."

Ju looked at An Rui's empty left shoulder:

"But, it's your hands!"

An Rui sighed and replied calmly:
"This is my own fault. I can only come back alive because of Lindsay's help."

Ju then turned his doubtful eyes to Lindsay who was standing aside.

Lindsay also showed a mixed smile, but he first pointed to the church in front:

"We will discuss the specific matters later."

"I've just come back. I want to see my grandma first."

After handing An Rui to Ju's side, Lindsay hurried back to the church and immediately saw Hongyue sitting in the chapel.

At this moment, Lindsay inexplicably felt a lot more settled in her heart:
"Mommy, I'm back."

Hongyue nodded calmly:
"Just come back safely."

Next, Lindsay told Hongyue what happened in the past few days.

After explaining what happened to his godmother, he planned to go out and continue talking with Ju.

As a result, I just walked out of the church door.

Lindsay heard Ju describe An Rui like this:

"A few days ago, a group of spider-shaped monsters appeared and attacked the farmland south of the town..."

 [Who am I, where am I, what should I write...]
