This time, Charles learned wisely, and asked an old man in the village who set up a roadside stall to sell groceries which store had delicious food.

At the old man's direction, Charles went to the tavern on the edge of the village.

The tavern was small, with three long tables, and the hall was filled with the fragrant smell of stew.

The proprietress looked like she was in her thirties and was nursing her baby behind the counter.

Charles came to the counter and asked, "Is there anything to eat now?"

The proprietress didn't raise her head and said, "There is a venison stew today." ”

Charles asked for a venison stew and some brown bread.

The proprietress shouted in the direction of the back kitchen, and a young girl in her early teens came out with a steaming pot, followed by a little boy of five or six years old, who held a plate and spoon of black bread in his hands.

The iron pot containing the stewed venison was placed on the table with a heavy "bang", and Charles was dumbfounded, this pot of meat was enough for two adults to eat.

Charles scooped a few pieces of venison into the bowl with a spoon, tasted it, and found that the taste was quite good, but the taste of some plants that I didn't understand was a bit strong, but it also had a mellow feeling, which made people feel that they had eaten for a long time.

In early autumn, it gets dark a little earlier than a while ago, and many adventurers have returned to this place, but there are no people who come here to eat.

When it was dark and Charles was almost full, customers came to the door one after another.

The customers all looked like middle-aged adventurers, and they had apparently changed into their usual clothes and had taken a shower.

The customers were obviously regular customers, and most of them joked with the hostess when they came in.

Charles was surprised to find that the guest looked at him with some surprise and some ...... Commiseration.

The tavern soon became lively, but Charles's plan to listen to the information fell through, and the guests were chatting about their parents.

Winter preparations are coming, and everyone is preparing for the winter.

Although there are a lot of prey to hunt in winter, after all, when the snow is falling, the prey is particularly fierce because of hunger, and humans are also inconvenient in this environment, and the danger factor is too high.

Adventurers in the north tend to rest in winter, recuperate when they are injured, and make people with their wives when they are not injured.

If you are not injured and have no wife, you can only brave the cold to go out to make money and marry a wife, just like a durian has to work overtime on weekends.

Just as Charles had eaten his fill and was about to pack up the rest of the venison and take it away, Ranieri walked into the tavern.

Ranieri came to the counter, and the proprietress thought he was here to eat, but she didn't expect him to come to work.

It's just that the proprietress has a lot of children, so there is no need to increase manpower.

Seeing Ranieri's look of loss, Charles decided to help him save himself from the unpalatable barbecue.

Ranieri was visibly stunned when he saw Charles stop him, he didn't expect Charles to stop him.

He sat down opposite Charles as instructed by Charles, and Charles said to him, "I haven't eaten dinner yet, I have ordered too many dishes, let's eat a little together." ”

Ranieri was a little embarrassed, but the next moment his hungry grunt rang out at the same time as Charles's burp.

He said to Charles, "Thank you for your kindness. ”

Charles beckoned the proprietress to her daughter, bringing a wooden bowl, a spoon and a few pieces of black bread, and two cups of tea, and then said to Ranieri, "When you go out, you will inevitably encounter unsatisfactory places, and everyone will help each other to get over this hurdle." ”

He then asked, "Listen to the accent, you're from the south, aren't you?"

Ranieri nodded and said, "My family was gone in the year of the flood, so I came here to seek refuge with my uncle's house, but after I came, I couldn't find them, so I had to live in Catania City by myself." ”

Charles can only smile bitterly at this, the transmission of information in these years is basically on the legs, not everyone can find Dragon Airlines and Dragon Logistics at every turn like him, and can only find caravans or adventurers along the way to help deliver letters. If there is an accident on the way, the letter is gone, and the sender does not know whether the other party has received the letter.

The most feared thing is that someone has moved and the letter has not arrived, and if it is not good, it will not be able to contact you again.

It wasn't until Charles made friends and private messages in the dream platform that this situation changed radically.

It was also with this hand that Charles was able to pay off his debt to Reimu in a short period of time.

At the same time, Charles also glanced at Ranieri, and being able to run so far by himself at that time shows that this kid still has the ability.

"I'm here with the team carrying grain from the Harvest Temple. "I help them take care of the horses every day. ”

Charles pondered whether to put a plug-in on this guy, so he used his soul vision to probe Ranieri's soul.

It's just that Charles frowned and asked, "What magic will you use?"

Ranieri replied with some frustration, "I can't use magic, I don't have much mental power." ”

Charles pouted, this guy's mental strength is not weak. However, if a normal person's mental power is water, then his mental power is as difficult to move as rubber, and it needs a little external stimulation.

In the end, Charles made up his mind that it would not be difficult to help Ranieri, so let's help.

"Do you have a place to stay?" Charles asked, Ranieri broke with his previous team, so it was impossible to live with them.

Ranieri replied, "No, where I plan to get together for the evening, tomorrow morning to see if there is a team to return to the city of Catania." ”

Charles said, "Well, at midnight you come to the tavern, the innermost room on the top floor, knock on the door six times, and make up the night there." ”

Ranieri thought it was where Charles lived, and was so moved that he almost cried when Charles invited him to dinner and gave him a place to live, and he said, "Thank you so much, if you need my help in the future, just say it." ”

Charles smiled and said, "It's nothing, in the future, when you have the ability, you can help those in need." ”

"Well said!"

A big slap was slapped on Charles's shoulder, Charles turned his head and found that it was a middle-aged uncle patting himself, and this uncle looked quite similar to the old man who sold groceries who told him that he had something to eat here, how he looked like father and son.

The middle-aged uncle shouted to the counter, "Wife, bring a bottle of wine, and I will have two drinks with these two little brothers." ”

The proprietress quickly brought a bottle of wine, which looked like it was old and new.

It's just that Charles looks too anxious and looks like he is old enough to drink, while Ranieri looks unhurried and has clear eyebrows, but he is already sixteen years old.

The boss and Ranieri were a little surprised when they learned Charles's age, but they didn't pay attention to it, there are quite a few strange-looking guys in this year.

During the chat, Charles learned that the boss's family was displaced because of the war in the place where they lived, and their family also took refuge with relatives but did not find anyone, and later met a kind elf to help them settle here.

Charles thought for a moment and asked, "Boss, you used to live near the Pachino Fortress in the Ragusa area, right?"

The boss glanced at Charles and asked, "Do you know there?"

Charles nodded and said, "I've heard of that place, where there was a war with the Kingdom of Biberach more than ten years ago. ”

The boss sighed and said, "Yes, I don't know why I suddenly started fighting, and it was a miserable fight." ”

Charles nodded, the biggest war on the human side in the past twenty years was this one that took place in the northeast corner of the Bischberg Kingdom and the southwest corner of the Biberach Kingdom.

He had heard from his family that the scale of the war was so large that even Charles's neighbor, the Marquis of Hermanlik, who was guarding the northern frontier of Biberach, had gone south with his elite to support the southern front.

Recently, Charles also learned that many of Gawain's friends were involved in the war.

Tristan's father died in that war, leaving one of his uncle's arm, Mark, on the battlefield.

Geraint, who had a relationship with Charles at the beginning, and randomly brushed copies together in the dream platform, and his knight Lord Innior also participated in that war.

As for the outcome of the war, both sides said they won.

And what makes people reverie is that not long after the end of the war, a group of evil god believers were found near the battlefield.

In order to exterminate the evil god believers, many adventurers were lost, only Charles knew, Gawain's father and the father of Handington, who was captured in the city of Granada not long ago, died there, Lancelot's father died of illness after being seriously injured, Lancelot's little friend Alex's father did not come back, Handington's mother was seriously injured there, and Charles helped her heal.

Many people have long believed that the war was started by the cultists, but both sides have denied this claim.

Charles decided that when he had a chance, he would go there and see what might trigger a plot.

While chatting, suddenly there was a cacophony outside, as if someone was calling for a medical officer.
