Something's wrong, they're not NPCs?

But that doesn't matter.

I was willing to do all this. I was planning to learn to live again for a man whose past I didn't know but whose name I knew only for two months. Flowers and plants have no ability to act or think.

They cannot feel pain, nor can they feel alive.

There is no way I can be a flower or a plant, I would feel pain... but I can also feel happy.

look.

His hand no longer refuses to rest on my belly. I feel the warmth of his palm... I feel like I can sleep well tonight. So, thank you. It's a little strange... but I feel like I can really live again. So, I want to repay you and learn things that I haven't touched before.

Because I pushed his hand to his chest, ideas started to come to mind?

I won't take the initiative today.

I won't do anything if he doesn't tell me what he wants me to do. After all, he said he should go to bed early today. It doesn't seem right to do this to my benefactor... But I'm not as obedient as I look. Anyway, I'm the only one who knows.

But I couldn't sleep a bit.

After all the fuss, you still don't plan to take action?

What a weirdo. Phew… Following this weirdo, my freshman year must have really become weird.

Chapter 245: Go to a tailor shop to repair your clothes tomorrow

early.

It took some time to cross the vast forest and reach the Oroshizuku Empire.

Friction between two neighboring countries is definitely unpleasant for people living on the border, but it is very comfortable for Su Ming.

It’s like there is no extradition agreement between the Beautiful Country and the Snow Country, so the original crime cannot be traced back here.

"Brother, you know the situation is not good now."

"So the gold notes over there want to be exchanged for our money. I'm very kind of me to exchange your money for a few copper notes."

It seems that he is sure that no one will take over his position here and he has no background.

He really has a conscience. He could have just robbed the money, but he still left some money for himself to buy steamed buns.

I just arrived and don't want to cause trouble.

12 month 22 day.

Night.

"The money is here! Please..."

The man who played with a knife during the day and wanted to rob things at the slightest disagreement was now kneeling in front of Su Ming and wailing.

Why did you go early?

He came here in his night clothes and with a mask on, wanting both money and life.

"If you had told me earlier that it was a one-to-one or ten-to-one exchange, it wouldn't have become so ugly."

"Okay, I'll let you go."

"..."

"Thank you, thank you... Gu?!"

"Pay attention in the next life."

12 month 23 day.

early morning.

It's been a long time since I stayed in a hotel. The environment is completely different from the grassland or the forest. There are no snakes, insects, ants or animals, and there is no need to worry about wind and rain.

"The food is cold."

Noelia waited, and saw that the food on the small wooden table had not been touched.

"It's better to eat cold than to eat without seasoning."

The food on the plate was fried.

It seems that they know how to extract oil from certain plants or fat. There are also spices such as peppers. Compared with the country I stayed in before...what was it called?

"The Parthian Empire."

Noelia added calmly.

"Yes, the taste is more important than what we ate in Parthia."

"Speaking of which, the taste was pretty good the first few days after leaving Roy Village. The closer we get to the capital, the lighter the taste becomes."

"This is the same, it belongs to the remote suburbs. The taste is heavier. It's true... the richer the place, the lighter the food, and the poorer the place, the heavier the taste."

Compared to the Snow Country, An Shiyao's family hardly uses any seasoning when dining. Some even just add a little salt.

"Would you like it stronger or lighter?"

Noelleya raised her face and looked at Su Ming.

"I am a poor person, I just love heavy tastes and hard work with technology."

"…What is the technology job?"

“You can think of it as using various seasonings to make originally inedible ingredients edible.”

"..."

Noelia has been asking questions a lot recently. As long as Su Ming says something, she will ask about words she doesn't understand.

"You are so knowledgeable."

"Well...it's normal."

Maybe it's okay to say he's knowledgeable?

After all, in this world, there is no one else except myself who can describe everything about the Snow Country in vivid detail.

12 month 23 day.

noon.

Su Ming didn't plan to settle down in the border area. It would be better to settle in a prosperous area.

"To Sassanid City? That's a bit far. Unless you offer double the price + the return trip fee, no one will be willing to go there. If you want to save money, look for caravans going there. It's also okay to go there a few times. At least you don't have to pay too much."

Following the coachman's advice, Su Ming found a caravan to accompany him.

Give more money and even food will be included.

12 month 23 day.

in the afternoon.

The caravan will not leave until tomorrow, and now Su Ming plans to go out and see the local customs and chat with others while there are still many people outside. Maybe he can get some information.

After all, this is not a game played on a computer. The key is that there will be an exclamation mark above the NPC's head, and you have to visit them.

"Alien? You mean the kind of service you get in a brothel? We don't have that, at least not until we get to the big towns in the north."

"..."

In the eyes of ordinary people, those who know about aliens think that Su Ming wants to go to a prostitute.

However, some elderly people spoke up and said something different.

"Aliens. When I was a child, my parents told me that strange creatures often came out to harm people after dark."

"There aren't many young people who believe in this. I haven't seen one either."

"..."

Ordinary people may not know, but the Explorers Guild should know, right?

But this place is too remote, and there is no guild at all. We can only give up for now.

Now he was taking Noelia for a walk and buying some things to prepare.

"Do you care what I am?"

"You don't want to know?"

"..."

Noelleya shook her head. "I know that nothing can change who I am. If you think I am a human, then I am a human. If you think I am an elf, then I am an elf."

"..."

Su Ming looked around.

Although it was getting dark and there were fewer and fewer people, it was impossible to walk on the street surrounded by various stalls.

"Can you hear it even when there's noise?"

"I didn't hear it. I guess that's what you thought. So... you didn't say what an elf is."

"..."

Elf?

Often appears in worlds with goblins. Ugh. I don't know what a proper elf looks like.

12 month 24 day.

Early in the morning, Su Ming took Noelia to find the caravan and set off.

They were in the cloth business, and seven or eight carriages were loaded with cloth.

"A car powered by magic stone? I've seen one in the capital before. It's flashy and impractical."

"Feed the animals with hay mixed with ginkgo nuts, and they will eat less and work more. It won't cost much to make a long trip."

"That magic stone thing... it's the size of my little finger and costs thousands of gold. I can't afford it."

"..."

Is that so?

Magic stones can be bought as long as you have money, but it is obviously not something that ordinary people or even the middle class can afford.

What is ginkgo?

"Livestock will get excited if they eat it... Hey, but some people also use other herbs as aphrodisiacs. If people eat it raw, they won't be able to sleep for several days."

Stimulants?

What's the difference between this and drinking coffee to stay awake? Eat less and work more.

12 month 24 day.

Night.

"Brother, your sister doesn't seem to talk much."

"She...maybe she's been traveling for a long time and is a little tired."

"That's true. You don't look very old. Where are you from?"

"..."

It's not that Noelia is afraid of talking to strangers.

What she meant was that she knew nothing and had never talked much to people outside the village. What if she revealed information that was bad for Su Ming... so she simply chose to shut herself up.

so.

"I heard."

She explained calmly.

"Hear...it's not important what I'm thinking, what's important is who we are now?"

"Brother and sister?"

"Do you think siblings can be like this?"
