Skretil's Ignorance Walker

Chapter 42 Before setting off again

"Hey, why are you two alone today?"

When they heard someone talking to them, Enid and Brandt turned around and saw that it was Lu Ren, the great hero who saved Luter. Although other adventurers were greeting Lu Ren before, the two of them were worrying about something at the time, so they did not notice Lu Ren.

"Sir Lu Ren, I didn't expect to see you again."

Brandt spoke first. It had only been a day since Lu Ren was awarded the honor, but it seemed as if everyone in the city knew about it.

"What are you talking about? You're talking as if I'm dead."

"Sorry, I'm not very good at talking."

Lu Ren smiled and said he didn't care. Although the person in front of me doesn't sound nice, he's not a bad person either.

"Just kidding, isn't Gavin with you?"

After hearing this, Enid and Brandt's expressions turned bad. Although Lu Ren couldn't see it, she could still feel that the atmosphere was getting colder.

"Could it be that he..."

"He was seriously injured before and is currently recovering at home."

"Well, I thought he was dead."

Realizing that she seemed to have said something not very nice, Lu Ren quickly changed the subject and walked to the front desk to find the teller.

"Is the president here? I plan to leave Luter recently."

"Is that so? The president is on a business trip now. I will inform the president later."

After explaining to the teller, Lu Ren said goodbye to the two of them, and then left the guild with Fa Fuwei.

Now it's time to buy some supplies.

The two people walking on the street suddenly found a man leaning on a seat next to a fountain in a square. The man's body was wrapped in large bandages, and he was leaning on the seat alone, wondering what he was thinking.

"Hey, what are you doing here alone?"

Lu Ren learned the man's identity by sensing the magic power and breath in his body. It was Gavin who Brandt mentioned earlier was recovering from his injuries.

"It's Sir Lu Ren. What kind of wind has brought you here?"

Seeing Lu Ren talking to him, Gavin moved his position to make room for Lu Ren.

After taking Fafuwei to sit on the seat, Lu Ren relaxed his legs.

"Fafuwei and I came here to buy supplies for the trip. I heard Brandt say you weren't recuperating at home. Why did you run out alone?"

"If I can't sit still at home, I go out for a walk."

"That's it."

"...Well, if you don't want to say it, forget it. I want to ask, who is Heidi?"

Feeling the silence in the atmosphere, Lu Ren thought about finding something to talk about. After thinking about it, he suddenly thought of what Gavin said when he saw the monster for the first time.

After Gavin heard this, his heart tightened and his face darkened.

"Well, if you don't want to say it, forget it. I'm taking the liberty."

"...Heidi, she can be considered my lover."

"Ah, that's it."

I had a guess before, but now my guess has been confirmed. Looking at Gavin who looked depressed, Lu Ren also cheered him up.

"There are so many beauties in the world, I can always find the right one in the future."

Gavin didn't answer Lu Ren, just glared at Lu Ren, and then lowered his head and felt alone.

"If you... forget it."

After holding it in for a while, Gavin couldn't help but speak.

"Heidi is my childhood sweetheart who is three years younger than me. Her parents died in an accident when she was young. She and I grew up together. I originally only treated her as a younger sister, but at the coming-of-age ceremony..."

"I understand, I understand. You must be very sad, so you desperately want to avenge her. It's okay. The problem has been solved now."

After comforting Gavin for a while, Lu Ren casually found an excuse and slipped away. If I continue to stay here, I will probably have to listen to his stories.

After continuing to walk around the street for a while, Lu Ren felt a little hungry.

"Favvi, are you hungry?"

"Well, a little bit, Lord...what would Master Lu Ren want to eat?"

Facing Fa Fuwei, who was obedient to him, Lu Ren had a slightly disgusting silly smile on his face. But Fafuwei didn't care.

"Favwei, whatever you want to eat, it's up to you."

"Then let's go eat at the Preakness restaurant from before."

Preakness is a chain restaurant. There are many chain stores in the central countries. Its prices are relatively cheap and the quantity is large. Although the taste is not very delicious, it is not unpleasant. Lu Ren occasionally took Fa Fuwei to eat once before. From then on, every time Lu Ren asked Fa Fuwei where to eat out, she would choose this restaurant.

Maybe he was thinking of saving money for himself, Lu Ren smiled helplessly, but it's okay, Lu Ren is not a person who spends money randomly unless he can't help it.

When they arrived at the hotel, the clerk now knew Lu Ren. He guided the two of them to their seats with a smile, and ordered the same dishes for Lu Ren and the others in a familiar manner.

This hotel is very lucky. It was not damaged at all in the previous disaster, making its business now very prosperous.

While waiting for the meal, Lu Ren took Fafuwei's hand and stroked it gently, smiling unconsciously from time to time.

"..."

Fa Fuwei didn't say anything, she just let Lu Ren touch her. Lu Ren himself liked to have physical contact with her, and now that the two were officially dating, this guy was even more unscrupulous.

"Ok?"

Lu Ren, who was enjoying Fafuwei's warm skin, suddenly noticed a familiar scent from her perception.

This breath and the magic reaction in the body have a profound influence on Lu Ren.

She looked in the direction of perception. Although she couldn't see it, she was still used to using her eyes to calibrate her perception.

"Lord Lu Ren?"

Seeing Lu Ren let go of his hand and getting up to go elsewhere, Fafuwei stopped Lu Ren in confusion.

"It's okay, I think I saw an acquaintance."

Instructing Fa Fuwei to continue sitting, Lu Ren came to a seat not far from their position.

"It's you! Mia!"

Lu Ren deliberately hid his breath and footsteps so that the other party was not aware of him. He was startled by the sudden sound and choked on the thick soup in his mouth.

"Cough cough cough... you..."

Turning her head away and protecting her cloak at the same time, Mia turned her head and stared at Lu Ren resentfully.

"You guy, you scared me."

"I didn't expect to meet you here. I thought you would be dining in a high-end hotel like that."

"You think of me as some kind of human noble. My mission funds are very tight."

"Oh? Can you tell me a little more?"

"...I didn't say anything. Come on, hurry up, you're interrupting my meal."

Lu Ren did not leave, but sat next to Mia and began to get close to her.

"No, let's eat together, and tell me more about you by the way."

"Go away, I'm not familiar with you."

Fafuwei, who was sitting in her seat, saw Lu Ren getting close to an unknown woman, and felt uneasy for some reason. She also stood up and came to Lu Ren's side.

"Then...well, can I sit next to you?"

"Ah, Favvi, I'm sorry, please sit down."

"Hey, I didn't agree."

Lu Ren was also startled when he saw Fa Fuwei suddenly running over. He thought it was a bit too much to leave her there alone. After reflecting on himself a little, Lu Ren began to introduce Mia to Fa Fuwei.

"This is Mia, a friend I met here."

Following Lu Ren's introduction, Fa Fuwei also nodded politely to the other party.

"This is Fafuwei, my love!"

"Ok?"

"!"

After being introduced together by Lu Ren like this, Mia frowned and looked at the two of them, while Fa Fuwei looked away shyly.

"……Oh."

After a moment of silence, Mia decided to continue eating her meal. The task was completed and the report was ready. I plan to go back after eating, but I can’t waste time here.

"Don't just say 'Oh', say something, like Eden Paradise or something."

"?! What did you say?"

"Don't get excited, I just want to know something about you."

"Don't ask so many questions. This is not your place to inquire."

"Don't be like this. After all, we are friends who have lived together for the rest of our lives. Tell me a little bit, and I won't talk nonsense."

"..."

Seeing that Mia was unable to get in, Lu Ren had no choice. Regarding the Eden clan behind Mia, Lu Ren was now itching to be curious.

It happened that the food ordered by Lu Ren and the others arrived at this time, and Lu Ren could only eat while dealing with Mia.
