Three days later, Rika Town.

"Romon, bring this. Although you are a Druid and have your own healing spells, you still need to bring the necessary medicine. It may be able to help you at the critical moment!"

After chasing him out of the pharmacy, the panting Nick stuffed a small bag into Romon's hand. In the bag was a bottle of each type of medicine. Although the amount was not much, it must be enough to cope with this adventure.

Because Romon has his own space, there are not many things he brings on the surface except those commonly used. After all, traveling light is good for him going deep into the forest.

However, he could only express his gratitude to his good friend for his concern and accept the package.

"You will have to work harder while I am away. Pay attention to your health and don't delay your body's recovery because of things in the store." Before leaving, Romon did not forget to warn Nick.

After listening to his words, Nick raised his eyebrows, and then looked at Romon with an indignant expression. "Say, I have to work harder when you are not here. Are you sure you have taken care of things in the store when you are here?"

"Haha!" Knowing that the other party just wanted to dilute the sadness of the temporary separation, Romon was still a little embarrassed, so he smiled and led the topic elsewhere. He really had never taken care of anything when it came to running the pharmacy. From the accounting audit to the final calculation of net profit, Nick was doing it alone.

"Romon, we are leaving soon. Will Fafier go?" Just as the two people were talking, the captain Haiwavi suddenly walked over, with an expression on his face that was anxious and dissatisfied.

At this time, it was already past seven o'clock in the morning. The adventurers of Haiwavi Squad had already gathered in the town, but another person who participated in this operation, Fafier, had not yet arrived.

Seeing that the sun had risen and there were gradually more and more passers-by on the street, Romon couldn't help but feel a little anxious.

"How about I go to his house to look for him." Considering that Fafier is not usually such a late person, Romon really doesn't understand the situation.

Just as I was about to get up and go to Fafier's House, a panting figure suddenly appeared on the street.

"Everyone, I'm sorry, I'm late." Carrying a large package on his back, Fafier panted and ran to everyone.

Seeing that he had already arrived, captain Haiwavi didn't have much to say, so he waved his hand and ordered the team to walk towards the forest without hesitation.

"Did you get up late today?" Romon and Fafier were walking behind the team. As they walked, Romon asked, "Don't keep others waiting for too long. It's very rude."

Fafier helplessly held the package next to him. "I know, it's not because of my mother. She heard that I was going on an adventure and prepared several large bags of things. Look at my bag, which is not small. This is the smallest one among them. If I hadn't run so fast, I would still have her holding on to her and adding things to me." After saying that, he sighed.

Romon smiled helplessly when he heard this, how pitiful the hearts of parents in the world are!

However, I feel a little envious of Fafier in my heart.

Apart from anything else, Romon has enjoyed this kind of happiness before, but has never felt it deeply. Youth lies in being unrestrained. He went out to study and work for several years without feeling worried.

But in this world, he has changed his body and identity, and the world is vast, but he will always be alone. This feeling of loneliness has been deeply hidden by him, hidden in the depths of his heart. Only when he sees others complaining about their troublesome parents, will he sigh.

What awaits him ahead will be unknown dangers. Romon was thinking about it while talking to Fafier. Suddenly, a feeling of being watched made him turn around suddenly.

I saw a girl coming out of the door of Temple that I just passed by. Seeing him turn around, she showed a bright smile and at the same time made a cheering gesture with her hands.

This action was accidentally done by Romon, and was later learned by Miss Eileen. Seeing Miss Eileen looking at him with a smile, Romon also smiled back at the other party. At the same time, he conveyed the message "I will work hard" to the other party with a bright smile.

Eileen nodded, and then turned back to Temple.

And this team of adventurers, which had two new members, gradually disappeared on the road of the town. The townspeople of Rika Town had long been accustomed to this kind of thing. The only thing that could make them a little more interested was that Romon joined this time.

Regarding the fact that Romon accepted the mission of the lord and went to Thorn Forest to draw a map, it has long been spread in the town. There are those who admire it, and there are those who are disdainful. Everyone says anything.

However, because the status of Romon is now different from what it used to be, even those who are disdainful do not dare to discuss it in front of others, but discussions from behind are inevitable.

"That Romon, I think it's true that he has a brain problem. Thorn Forest Where is that place? That's a place where monsters live. Even when some powerful adventurers form a team, there are often casualties. He is a Second Level Druid, and he wants to travel throughout the entire forest. Isn't this a joke?"

In Motte hotel, two people were chatting while basking in the sun. One of them was obviously a little hostile, so when he talked about Romon's action, he spoke with disdain.

Another person obviously didn't think so, "What you said is wrong. Who is Romon? He is Second-Level Druid now, and you are the only one who can say bad things about him? Let me tell you, even though Romon is a young man, he is really capable. Otherwise, could he have killed the tax official Bakar with one sword?"

"Shh, stop talking." When the first idler heard the other party mentioning Bakar, he was startled and quickly lowered his voice. "I heard that several townspeople who discussed this matter a few days ago were imprisoned... We are just civilians, so we should not interfere with the nobles' affairs. Drink, drink..."

Being disturbed by this incident, the two of them suddenly lost their mood. They picked up the wine and drank in silence.

Because they were so engrossed in what they were talking about, they didn't realize that at a table behind them, a young man had been listening silently.

The young man was very handsome. He was sitting there with his waist straight. He was wearing clothes that could only be worn by warriors. He had a long sword on his waist with faint marks of sword and shield. He was wearing a pair of warrior boots on his feet, and he showed an awe-inspiring heroic spirit.

Just when he heard the mention of Romon, a cold light suddenly flashed in the young man's eyes. He muttered Romon's name in a low voice and clenched his fists tightly. At this time, the two people stopped talking. The young man thought for a while, stood up to pay, turned around, and walked towards the direction of the temple.

Tall and magnificent, this is Temple.

This young man has been standing at the door of Temple for a while, seeming to be reminiscing about something.

It wasn't until a gatekeeper came to ask that he withdrew his gaze, and then said with a smile, "Hello, I'm here to see Pastor Tennis. I am his friend. Is he here now?"

The gatekeeper looked the young man up and down. Seeing that he was neatly dressed and had an awe-inspiring demeanor, and he didn't look like he was lying, he nodded. "Tennis Pastor should be inside, do you want me to take you there?"

The young man thanked him hurriedly and politely, "Thank you then." Then, he followed the person, stepped elegantly, and entered Temple.

Temple is not small. If someone enters for the first time, they will inevitably feel a little confused about the direction. However, this young man behaves very leisurely. Following the person, he admires everything in Temple while following him through the garden and around the path.

It wasn't until he reached the place where Pastor Tennis often conducts course exercises that the guard stopped. "This is where Pastor Tennis conducts courses. He may have finished the course now and will be out soon. Just wait here."

"Oh, thank you." The young man quickly thanked the other party.

Coincidentally, at this time, a young pastor pushed the door open and walked out of the room. The young man immediately looked over attentively.

"Tennis Pastor, hello!" The gatekeeper hurriedly greeted the pastor.

"Who is he?" Pastor Tennis replied casually. He suddenly realized that someone was staring at him. He immediately raised his head warily and asked, "Why did you bring him here?"

"Pastor Tennis, this man said he was your friend, so I brought him here." The gatekeeper seemed to have discovered that the two people did not know each other, and replied uneasily.

"My friend?" Pastor Tennis heard this and looked at the other person carefully, but no matter how he looked at him, he felt that the person in front of him was very strange.

"Who are you? My friend? I don't seem to know you." He said coldly.

The young man smiled and approached the pastor.

"Are you Pastor Tennis?" As he asked, the young man looked up and down, as if he was confirming his identity.

Tennis Pastor felt that the other party was more and more weird. He took a step back and said coldly, "Yes, it's me. Who are you?"

But the young man stood still, then stared into the other person's eyes for a long time before uttering a sentence: "My name is Lankaxi."

"Lankaxi?" Pastor Tennis thought about it carefully, but still felt that this name was unfamiliar. When he was about to have someone take this person out, suddenly, the young man walked up to him quickly and whispered in his ear, "Maybe you don't know me, but you definitely know my father...Bakar!"
