Because it rained two days ago, Rika Town after the rain now looks like the arrival of spring.
The grass on the roadside, after a winter's sleep, shyly poked its head out under the warm sunshine, curiously staring at this familiar yet strange town.
Those delicate flowers and slender bodies are no longer afraid of the cold and moist air, giving them the courage and motivation to continue growing and waiting hard for the flowers to bloom.
The trees that had lost all their leaves due to the snow, drank to their heart's content after the snow turned into water, and then turned the gift of snow Elves into the accumulation of strength at the beginning of the year.
On the road, there are children who have taken off their winter clothes. They are playing and laughing. In this peaceful town, they are performing the simplest and most innocent game of mankind.
The adults have reached a time when they have no excuse to be idle. In this town, most people are hard-working but poor. Except for the coldest time in winter and the rare festivals of the year, they can have a little leisure. At other times, they work at sunrise and rest at sunset. They cannot be lazy for a day.
After a winter's rest, almost every family is in urgent need of money to put more bread on their tables, and spring is also the beginning of a year. In this season, farmers will sow the hope of the year while sweating. In autumn, what awaits them will be a heavy harvest.
Not only the farmers, but also the shop owners also cheered up and opened their shops early in the morning and closed them late in the evening, in anticipation of more business.
At this time, there was such a store owner. While everyone else was busy working hard in the store, he did not put his thoughts on running the store at all. Instead, he ran to Thorn Forest early.
"Romon, do it again!" Fafier shouted in the forest clearing, waving the sword in his hand.
Opposite him, Romon, who was already sweating profusely, nodded, without saying a word, and came forward with a sword.
Two people, two swords, clashed in an instant.
There was a crisp sound of impact, agility, and an instant bond. The confrontation only lasted a moment, but the outcome was already decided. The moment Romon's sword collided with Fafier's sword, they were already overwhelmed by the opponent's momentum.
Although they continued to fight for a while, they showed signs of defeat.
"Okay, I lost." Romon withdrew his sword and said a little depressed.
"Haha! You persisted in five moves more than last time. You have made great progress." Fafier laughed, feeling proud and quite surprised at Romon's progress.
Different from his dedicated practice, Romon also had to practice Druid's course. Besides, no one knew Romon's original physical condition better than him.
Fafier was born with a strong physique and was born into a family of soldiers. After having money to concentrate on practicing martial arts, he naturally made rapid progress.
But Romon was still a weak young man a few months ago, and had to rely on him and Nick for protection and support in everything. In the past few months, not only had the other party's personality changed, but Druid had also successfully advanced to the first Second Level, and he had made rapid progress even in ** battles.
Fafier has reason to believe that if the other party didn't have too many things to take care of and just concentrated on practicing martial arts, its results would definitely be even better than what it is now.
However, even now, Romon has already amazed Fafier.
There's just one thing Fafier doesn't quite understand. For example, he has already gone to the city to take the exam and successfully obtained the registration of Second-Level Warrior. Romon's combat skills have now reached the professional level, so why not register?
Every time I'm asked this question, Romon always laughs and doesn't answer.
"Romon, actually, with your current level, you can already register. Why don't you go? Are you worried about failure?" Fafier put away his sword and asked this question again.
Romon did not choose to prevaricate again this time, but said truthfully, "Because I want to use my combat power as a means to save my life, so I can't let more people know my true strength at the moment."
"What do you mean? I don't understand." Fafier shook his head after hearing this.
Romon laughed and patted the other party on the head, "Don't understand? That's right if you don't understand! This is called catching someone by surprise..."
"Romon Look, why are there so many people in front of the store?"
As usual, after practicing martial arts, the two good friends walked back chatting and laughing, but when they were still some distance away from the pharmacy, they were both stunned.
I saw a circle of curious people outside the store looking inside. There were men and women. What kind of attractive drama was going on inside?
"Haha, could it be your Miss Angel who is here?" Fafier bumped Romon with his elbow and said with a playful smile.
Romon shook his head. "It doesn't look like she's here, go back quickly." The Miss Angel Fafier mentioned is naturally the second Miss Eileen.
Eileen has not appeared again in the past few days. At first, Romon was a little disappointed, but as time went by, it felt like it was natural.
No matter how approachable the other party is, she is still a noble lady and Second-Level Priest. How can she go to a civilian area every day?
The two people quickly rushed to Romon's Potion Shop, only to see a girl in the lobby of the store, with her hands on her hips and she kept saying something.
Romon frowned as soon as he saw it. He knew the person who came. This girl was Druid Jefa's beloved disciple Weiwan. The man who had always been very cold to him doted on this girl. No matter how good he was, it was not as good as a naughty prank of the girl.
"Romon, you're back. She said she wanted to ask you something." As soon as Romon appeared, Nick, who had already been a little overwhelmed, quickly ran over with a look of relief on his face.
Looking at the red face of his good friend, under this situation, Romon actually had the urge to laugh.
It's no wonder that he is like this. Nick, who is usually quite sharp-tongued, will be so nervous that he can't speak once he meets a beautiful girl. It's really hard for him to persist until he comes back in front of such a cute girl who is showing off her barbaric style.
Holding back his laughter, Romon let Fafier and Nick go to work, and walked up to the girl Weiwan. "Long time no see, Miss Weiwan."
Weiwan became angry when she saw the other party's calm and relaxed appearance. She said coldly, "Who haven't seen you for a long time? Romon, you are too despicable. You have lowered the price of medicine so low, how can we sell medicine?"
Romon said oh, it turned out that the other party came here for this matter.
It turned out that because Enhanced Healing Potion was well-received after its launch, within the next month, Romon quickly launched a similarly ordinary potion with the same effect as before, but the price Gebi was reduced by 10%.
Because of the launch of these two potions, Rika Town adventurers now almost only come to the Romon store, and very few go to the Jefa store.
Weiwan, who was already dissatisfied with Romon, finally couldn't help it and broke out after a busy night but no one came to try her results.
The result of the outbreak was that Romon's Potion Shop ran to the opposite side to provoke him. Unfortunately, Romon went to the forest to practice martial arts at that time.
She didn't find the person, and she felt more and more that the other person was hiding from her, and refused to leave the store. Because of her nature to watch the excitement, she knew that the two stores were finally going to fight, and everyone in the town stopped what they were doing and peeked at the door of the store.
This resulted in the lively scene Romon saw when they came back.
Probably guessing the purpose of the other party's visit, Romon smiled. This smile seemed elegant and charming to others, but in Weiwan's eyes, it turned into a mockery of her. Romon said, "Weiwan Miss E, I don't quite understand what you mean. This business competes for profit... Don't talk about me. In the past few months, didn't your store also suddenly lower its prices? Because of your store's price reduction, my store suffered serious losses."
"You..." Weiwan suddenly choked up. What the other party said was right, but... but, she didn't mean it, unlike Romon, who was clearly going against her! Showing off his ability?
Thinking of what the tax officer said to her, the girl's anger suddenly surged up again. She said angrily, "Don't do this, don't you and I don't know? Liar! You are a big liar! If you use the formula of the predecessors to gain reputation, you are a liar! Liar..."
"Oh?" Romon was really dumbfounded when a cute-looking girl pointed at her nose and scolded her as a liar.
Seeing that everyone onlookers had gossipy expressions, even his good friends Nick and Fafier also had playful expressions. Romon's head hurt, so he grabbed the girl and went inside.
"You... what do you want to do?" The girl who was dragged here and was stunned on the way, only realized it at this time. She jumped to the farthest place from Romon, stared at Romon vigilantly, and asked sharply.
Romon rubbed his nose and said with a wry smile, "I just want to understand what you meant by what you just said."
"You know that your crime has been exposed, and you are afraid?" The girl snorted, looking at Romon with disdain, "If someone hadn't told me, I would never have imagined that you are such a despicable person!"
Romon keenly captured the information in the girl's words. Just thinking about it, he roughly guessed who the person was. However, he still deliberately said tentatively, "The tax officer told you this, right? Do you believe what he said?"
"Hmph! Why don't I believe what he said?" The girl, who had no idea that she had sold the tax collector, said disdainfully, "You have no grudges with him. If you didn't really do such a thing, why did he tell me that?"
Sure enough, it was him. Romon gritted his teeth secretly.
"What do you want to do?" Druid also belongs to Druid. Although she is only at the first level, it is enough for the girl to feel the coldness of this moment. She screamed and wanted to retreat, but found that there was a table behind her, and she had reached a point of no return.
Romon quickly put away his murderous intention and smiled, "Of course I don't want to do anything to you, but..."
Seeing the other party looking at him nervously, Romon returned to his normal expression and said seriously, "Okay, I'll tell you everything. In fact, you were deceived by the tax official."
Romon then made up a story and told the girl about how he occasionally obtained evidence of some tax officials committing crimes and was discovered by them.
Who is Romon? He is used to seeing all kinds of people on earth. It is not a piece of cake to fool a naive Xiao Ya head. What's more, there are truths and lies in his words, and he is not making them up.
After hearing his explanation, the girl was stunned. She didn't believe it at first, and asked Romon why she didn't hand it over to the judicial officer when she had the evidence, but she was willing to be retaliated against by the other party repeatedly.
"It seems difficult to leave it to the judicial officer! We are all relatives!" Romon picked up a piece of evidence and used his superb acting skills to portray a young man who had obtained the evidence but felt it was too hot to handle.
After hearing this, the girl despised Romon as a human being and was even more angry at the tax officer who encouraged her to come here to make trouble.
I saw the girl leave Romon's Potion Shop angrily and rush towards the store opposite.
Romon saw her leaving, with a dumbfounded expression on her face. This girl must be too naive, and then she smiled again, "Bakar, your death has come."
Today, his reputation among adventurers and townspeople, and his relationship with Eileen, have reached a level where he can kill Bakar.
Then let's fish tonight!
