A Different World That Started as a Slave

After bidding farewell to the woodcutter, Reens walked in the direction he had pointed before.

Soon, Reens came to the artificially repaired walkway.

Then, a blurry scene of houses intertwined appeared in his sight.

In the midday sun, from a distance, it seemed to be illuminated by a layer of faint light.

Following the walkway, Reens walked to the vicinity of the town in a short time, and there were more pedestrians around.

But after seeing Reens's appearance, they all chose to distance themselves.

As a result, Reens was embarrassed to go forward to ask about the situation.

As for questioning with a sword?

He finally returned to the civilized world, and he didn't want to become a "savage" again because of such a small matter.

However, not everyone was avoiding Reens.

"This... traveler? What do you want to do in Hughes Town?"

A man holding a spear and looking like a soldier walked up to Reens and asked him.

Although his eyes were a little alert, he was not hostile.

It was more because of Reens' identity as a stranger that he was on guard.

"I am an adventurer, I got lost in the forest, and I met a friendly uncle after I walked out."

"I want to know the direction here, so the uncle guided me to the town to ask."

Reens answered with a smile.

"Adventurers... Sorry, since Hughes is a remote town, few people come here."

"So, everyone may be a little wary of outsiders."

"I hope our behavior will not give you a bad impression."

"I am a militiaman in the town. As an apology, if you have anything you want to know, I will try my best to answer you."

"Whether it is the situation in the town or the information outside, I know a little bit, and I should be able to answer some of your simple questions."

The militia brother apologized to Reens and said.

"It's okay, you're welcome, I understand."

Riens walked straight to the three-line, and then asked:

"I want to know, in which country is our Hughes town located, which territory, and which big city is nearby?"

It was a very simple question, so the militia brother gave the answer without hesitation:

"We belong to the Neil Kingdom."

"Although the Hughes town is a bit off the beaten path, it still belongs to the jurisdiction of the Domini King's capital."

"As for the big city nearby, probably only Colbert is."

"I don't know if these answers can answer your doubts?"

"Neil Kingdom?"

"Thank you for your answer... I wonder if I can do some repairs here?"

Riens pondered for a while, then smiled and said to the militia brother.

The Neil Kingdom is a neighboring country of the Hatwin Kingdom.

So after nearly a month of traveling in the Monster Forest, Reiens finally left his original country.

Now he should be out of the influence of the Glenbogen family, right?

"Of course, Hughes Town welcomes any friendly travelers."

The militia brother replied.

As he said that, he led Reans into the town.

"Hmm? Trouble..."

The moment he stepped into the town, Reans frowned, then looked around and said in his heart.

"What's wrong?"

The militia brother saw Reans stop and frowned, so he asked him in confusion.

"Nothing... I just suddenly felt a little uncomfortable."

"It should be because I stayed in the forest for too long and had some minor problems."

Reans relaxed his frown and "explained" with a smile.

"There is a doctor in the town. Do you need to go see him?"

Hearing Reans' explanation, the militia brother suggested.

"It's okay, a minor problem, it's already healed."

Reans shook his head and refused.

Seeing Reans' firm attitude, the militia brother didn't bother him anymore.

He and Reens were not related, and he was just giving some suggestions. Reens didn't want to listen, so he couldn't say much.

Then, the militia brother took Reens to the only hotel in the town.

According to the militia brother, this hotel is mainly used to accommodate caravans that come once every quarter, and there is basically no business at other times.

His stay has increased the popularity of this usually empty hotel.

So, there is no need to spend money, and it is free to stay.

However,

It was just a place to stay, and some basic services that a hotel should have were impossible to provide.

For example, for the problem of water, Reens had to go to the well to get it himself.

After seeing off the militia brother, Reens went to get some water, washed his body, and then lay on the bed and entered the dungeon.

...

The scene changed.

Reens returned to the time when he first entered the town.

Reens stopped and looked around, completely ignoring the militia brother's call, and carefully observed the surrounding situation.

In a normal field of vision, there was nothing special about Hughes Town.

The houses were low, basically one or two stories high, unlike Kara City, where three or four stories were common.

There were even seven or eight stories in the inner city, and the houses were more than 20 meters high, and they also covered a large area.

However, it was a restaurant, and the consumption was very expensive.

Even if Reens exchanged all the contribution points he earned from "working" in the Glenbogen family into coins, it might not be enough to spend once in it.

Therefore, Reens just passed by there at most and never ate there.

Of course, not having eaten there does not mean that Reens has never been in and out of that restaurant.

Once, out of curiosity, Reens went in in a dungeon.

To be honest, Reens was deeply impressed by it.

Whether it was the gorgeous decoration or the young lady wearing unusually cool clothes, Reens was deeply impressed.

Otherwise, Reens would not have given Barton's slave exchange a comment that the decoration was very similar to a "high-end club".

Because this comment was given by Reens with reference to that restaurant.

He had never had the opportunity to enter and exit similar places in his previous life.

Let's get back to the topic.

Although there is nothing wrong with Hughes Town in normal vision, there is a big problem in elemental vision.

The moment he stepped into here, Reens noticed the abnormal distribution of elements in the town.

They are distributed too regularly, and the elements in each area are the same elements.

This does not conform to the normal distribution of elements.

Under normal circumstances, everyone is mixed together, how can there be such a clear distinction.

Therefore, Reens almost immediately found something wrong.

Moreover, more importantly, he did not notice this abnormality before he walked in.

From the outside, it is a normal distribution of elements.

As far as the current situation is concerned, Reens estimates that he should have fallen into a magic ritual.

And it is a large-scale ritual on the scale of a small town.

The relevant knowledge of "magic ritual" is also recorded in Lucrecia's book.

Thanks to Lucrecia again, he is no longer an "illiterate" in the field of supernatural.
