Golden Legend! White Crane, Oh, White Crane!

At this time.

At Palu's home.

Inside the living room, a group of people were gathered around, staring at Ian with wide, curious eyes.

His small face was tense, his eyes were closed, and he seemed to be muttering something to himself.

"Golden Legend, Golden Legend, Golden Legend... System, you're amazing! A three-pull streak is definitely not a dream!"

The next moment!

Suddenly, Ian opened his eyes wide!

He stretched out his little hand, staring intently at the center of his palm!

"Buzz..."

A box with a brown exterior, resembling a European-style bread, suddenly appeared in his hand.

Upon seeing this prop.

Ian's eyes widened in surprise at first, then the corners of his mouth gradually curved into a smile, his little face beaming with undisguised excitement!

"Wow! I won! I won! This time it really is the Golden Legend!!"

Upon hearing this, Nobunaga, who was standing nearby, immediately understood.

They quickly crowded around, and everyone curiously examined the brown box in Ian's hand.

They were so excited to see Ian, just as happy as Ian was.

"Tell me quickly, Ian, what kind of prop is it this time?"

Yesterday, I couldn't resist Uvogin's pleas.

Ian sprayed him with some [Underground Gas], and the guy disappeared somewhere, swimming around for ages until he was completely exhausted before he finally had his fill!

This made Nobunaga extremely envious. He couldn't contain himself when he saw the new item. This time, he absolutely couldn't let Uvogin get there first!

"Smack!"

Palu, sitting comfortably on the sofa, opened a can of beer.

We spent a few days together.

After discovering that these people were not difficult to get along with, Palu felt much more relaxed.

Most importantly, he has discovered that these children are not ordinary people at all!!

Can ordinary people conjure things out of thin air?!

This is unbelievable... He almost thought he was getting old and his eyesight was failing at such a young age...

And... can ordinary people swim underground!?

Yesterday, that kid Uvogin suddenly popped half his head out of the ground, scaring him so much that he almost sprayed it all over his face while he was in the toilet!

Thank goodness, I survived.

From then on, Palu resigned himself to his fate...

This world is too crazy.

What's there for an ordinary person like him to be so conflicted about...?

Seeing everyone gathered around Ian watching, he felt a pang of emotion.

Do these superpowered individuals also have things they're interested in?

Anyway, around this time every day, that kid named Ian would always run into the living room in a daze and suddenly conjure something out of thin air.

Then, Uvogin others started chattering excitedly, as if they had seen some rare treasure.

He was surprised at first, but now he's used to it...

Ordinary people should suppress their curiosity.

It's just superpowers...

Anyway, he didn't...

Just as Palu was about to drink, a large hand suddenly reached out and snatched the beer away!

"Uncle! They say on TV that drinking alone is the beginning of a midlife crisis! Good things like this should be shared!"

Then he drank it all in one gulp!

After finishing his drink, he grinned at Palu, revealing his gleaming canine teeth.

Palu smiled slightly, calmly pulled another can of beer from under his butt, and pushed up his non-existent glasses.

"Uvogin, the hidden wine... is the last stand of adult men against the world!"

That brat, he's stolen my drinks so many times, does he think I'd be unsuspecting?!

Hmph, you're underestimating the survival wisdom of ordinary people!

Ian, who was standing nearby, noticed this and couldn't help but smile.

Seeing Uvogin and Palu interacting so easily.

He knew that Uvogin was changing; he was no longer as indifferent to the lives of ordinary people as he was in the original story, which was a development Ian was happy to see.

He believed that Feitan Chrollo and the others' experience living and interacting with Palu's family would change their perception of ordinary people.

Change always happens gradually and imperceptibly...

Ian looked at the expectant gazes of the crowd, a slight smile playing on his lips.

Is there anything that everyone wants right now?

Upon hearing this...

Everyone fell into thought.

They knew that Ian was not speaking without reason!

As Ian said this, he also looked at Palu, who was sitting on the sofa looking in their direction.

Palu noticed Ian's smiling gaze, looked around, then pointed to himself, looking surprised.

"Can... can I do it too?"

Ian nodded and smiled.

"Of course, I've been staying with you, Uncle Palu, all this time, forcing you and your wife and children to live apart, which has caused you trouble."

"If there's anything you want, you can say so; it'll be a small compensation."

Palu's heart skipped a beat.

The other party is a superpowered person...

But then I thought, I've already accepted nearly a million Jenny of gold from the other party, how can I shamelessly make demands again!

But... I really want it...

This is an opportunity given by someone with superpowers...

His expression was extremely conflicted, as if his conscience and desires were locked in a struggle.

Upon hearing this, Uvogin, who was not far away,

He perked up his ears, quickly shook the empty beer can in his hand, and asked curiously.

"Ian, is something like chilled beer okay?"

While others are still struggling with their decisions.

He Uvogin, has already spoken up!

It's not that complicated. It's Ian, after all. If you want something, just tell him directly...

I really don't understand these people...

"Of course, no problem!"

"This is a good opportunity for everyone to learn about the abilities of the new item!"

Upon hearing Ian agree, Nobunaga secretly regretted his decision.

I'm still too Uvogin who's thick-skinned. Seeing that no one else has spoken, I was just hesitating to ask Ian for a sharp knife when he beat me to it!

He was breathing heavily, staring at Uvogin.

So annoying!!

Ian's face beamed with uncontrollable joy; he couldn't help it.

Although this tool requires some preliminary actions, it's really useful and almost comparable to a "wish-granting machine".

Unfortunately, it should only be able to produce items.

Speaking of which... it does resemble Nanika...

But it has no side effects or restrictions, and is much more convenient to use.

"Ian, how do I use this item?"

Nobunaga scratched his head and asked somewhat anxiously.

He couldn't worry about anything else; once Uvogin's wish was fulfilled, he was determined to get a good, reliable knife.

"This item is called the [White Crane Repayment Combo]!"

"Everyone, follow me!"

Ian smiled and excitedly led the group outside, carrying the brown box. Palu also joined in the fun.

Ian placed the brown box on the ground and then spoke to Uvogin.

"Uvogin, go open the box," Ian instructed with a smile.

Should I do it?

Although Uvogin was curious, he obediently did as he was told, and went over and opened the box directly.

The next moment, to everyone's astonishment...

Suddenly, a white crane emerged from the box, transforming into a streak of white light, and flew out, quickly disappearing into the horizon.

"I... Ian... that thing flew away!"

Uvogin pointed at the white crane and said somewhat awkwardly.

He was worried that he had broken Ian's props!

"It's okay, it's okay, it's normal. Everyone hurry up and keep up with it. If nothing unexpected happens, it will encounter some minor trouble!"

Ian quickly explained.

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone hurriedly chased after him.

A short while later, they found the white crane trapped and struggling in a thicket at a few intersections.

"What a stupid bird, how could it get tangled up like that?"

Uvogin made a sarcastic remark, but Ian just smiled and said...

"It's not that it's stupid; it's just some kind of machine. These are the rules for using this item, similar to triggering a game's plot. Only in this way can the next step be taken."

[The Crane's Gratitude Combo] This item is very similar to the Japan folktale "The White Crane's Gratitude." It has a very special way of being used. You need to actively rescue the trapped white crane and go through three stages of "bestowing grace - making a contract - repaying kindness" to complete its purpose.

First, the user must rescue the item "White Crane" to trigger the contract.

Secondly, wait for the crane to transform into a young girl to come and repay her kindness, expressing the wish she hopes to fulfill.

Third, during this period, the "No Peeping" rule applies, and it is strictly forbidden to peek at the cranes making gifts; violation will render the contract invalid.

"Uvogin, go and rescue it!"

Uvogin went straight over, broke off the bushes, and released the white crane.

After circling twice in the sky, the other party flew away.

"It... it flew away again..."

Uvogin stared blankly as the other flew away, Ian breathed a slight sigh of relief and smiled.

"Don't worry, the prerequisite task has been completed. Now we just need to go home and wait."

Soon, everyone returned to Palu's house.

A short while later, the doorbell rang.

"They're here!"

Ian's eyes lit up, and he quickly grabbed Uvogin and ran to the door. It was also his first time using this gadget, and he was full of curiosity.

"Squeak--"

The door was opened.

The next moment, everyone was stunned.

At the entrance stood a beautiful woman, resembling a Japanese Nadeshiko, with her eyes lowered and wearing a straw hat, which could not conceal her porcelain-white and delicate face. She was dressed in an elegant white outfit.

Most importantly, within a ten-meter radius of her, it was snowing heavily.

"Please... let me stay here for the night..."

She spoke, her voice as clear and cool as spring water. The moment she looked up, her eyelashes trembled slightly, evoking pity.

"Um... come in!"

Uvogin and the others stared wide-eyed. Ian nudged him, urging him to speak, Uvogin quickly said something.
