Chapter 1: The Awakening of the Traverser

The starting point of the story is that on January 7, 1257, the five countries on the continent of Calradia fought each other, only the mercenary city named after the "Free Capital" Chanda can enjoy real peace, in this small town, people are very harmonious with each other, after several waves of immigration, Chanda has the population needed for a large city, attracting veterans from all sides, wandering poets, The declining aristocracy is concentrated here, as it is a town that has remained neutral since the end of the Holy War of Light and Darkness hundreds of years ago, and has never been affected by the chaos of war

At this time, in the town square of Chanda, the door of a tavern called "Happy Wild Boar" was pushed open from the inside, and a handsome young man in a white robe holding a short knife with the word "Water Moon" inscribed on it walked out from behind the door, and the eyes of the town were directed towards him for a moment.

A girl who seemed to be fourteen or fifteen years old shouted and ran to him from a distance, and asked in a ghostly manner, "What a strange dress you have! Zenda has not had a visitor like you for a while!

"Far East, what are you asking for? We haven't known each other yet, have we?" the man in white replied to the girl's question, and took the opportunity to express his doubts.

"Tell me your name and we can get to know each other!~"

"It is etiquette to give your name before asking someone for their name. ”

"Ah, that's it! My name is Shaw! My surname is Augest, please take care of me~"

"My name is Natsuhiko, Maitreya Natsuhiko. ”

Xiao Yi began to circle around Xia Yan, and asked with interest, "Is Mr. Maitreya also looking for a job when he comes to Zenda, or do you want to settle here?"

Maitreya turned around and walked towards the tavern, leaving behind a sentence: "This has nothing to do with you, forgive me for missing me." ”

"It's really cold, what are the handsome guys thinking lately......"

As a result of Maitreya's departure, the people of Zendha returned to their work, and Shoy watched Maitreya's back in silence until he disappeared behind the door of the tavern.

At the Happy Boar Tavern on this day, as usual, there were several mercenary warriors standing in the corner, all groping for the last few dinars in their money bags and buying wine from the tavern owner Suke. The rest were the townsfolk of Chanda, who had made the tavern their home unnoticed, and although it looked less cluttered, the noise of the drinkers was enough to drown it out......

"Is the guy who came with me awake?" Maitreya Natsuhiko asked Suke as he came to the counter.

Suke pointed upstairs and replied, "He has already gotten up, but his health is not optimistic, and it seems that he has contracted a disease from a long journey. ”

"We've been adrift on the sea for almost a year, and we've been to many places, but he's only been injured on the way. ”

"I'm really out of sight, go and tell him to come down, I've got food and drinks for you. Su Ke touched his head with a wry smile and informed Xia Yan that he had prepared his meal.

Before Xia Yan walked up the stairs, he replied to Su Ke: "In order to keep your mind clear, the wine is exempt." ”

In desperation, Su Ke put away the bottles of wine, and Maitreya walked to someone's room on the third floor......

Coming to the third floor where the guest rooms were lined up, Maitreya pushed open one of the doors with one palm, and a murderous aura instantly came out from inside, and three flying needles flashing with cold light flew towards Xia Yan, fortunately, he reacted quickly and blocked the flying needles with his scabbard, and the flying needles were used by a cold man in a black traveling trench coat, judging from their skills, they did not look like immigrants from other continents.

"Kenjubei, come with me if your injuries are healed, it seems that we are going to stay in this place for a while...... Unless someone knows the route, it will be possible to sail back to the east......" Natsuhiko took the initiative to talk, trying to drag the man known as the Ten Guards out of the room.

"Xia Yan, what did Jing tell you, what was the purpose of him throwing us on the boat and sending us here?"

"You're so indifferent to all of this, and I'm not the kind of person who gets to the bottom of it, and Kagami didn't reveal any information, just asking us to come to this continent for a while...... If we want to go back, only he can help us!"

"What the hell is that guy up to, I'm starting to get bored!" From the conversation between the two, it seems that a person named Kagami sent them here, and had other plans.

"Cut...... Come with me, this small city is not bad, let's rest here for a while......" Xia Yan turned to leave with emotion, and the ten guards shouted at his back, "What will you do next?

Xia Yan ignored Shibei's question and walked downstairs on his own. Ten Guards felt helpless and followed.

Descending to the bustling tavern hall, Suke gestured to them, and they dined at a long table against the wall, showing his interest in outsiders, and sat down at the table.

"You've come just in time, boss. Can you tell us what time it is? I mean the date. Xia Yan took advantage of Su Ke's side to ask him about the time.

"How do you ask this...... Well, it's January 7, 1257, and there's nothing else to ask?"

"Really...... We've been at sea for seven months, so boss, what kind of work is suitable for a character like us, we used to be mercenaries, and now we need money...... At least the currency that circulates on this continent. Shibei asked anxiously.

Su Ke thought for a moment and provided some information: "Recently, there have been a lot of bandits near Chanda, and the water bandits along the You River and the bandits on Zel Stone Mountain are very troublesome...... If you want to be a bounty hunter for a few days, you can go to the sheriff and you should easily find him in the town square!"

"Anyway, let's go check it out first. I want to say that we don't have the so-called dinar on us......" Maitreya looked at the deflated wallet and was speechless.

When Su Ke heard this, he was not in a hurry or angry, and said with a smile: "Two little brothers, don't be in such a hurry, I see that you will also live in Chanda for a while, and it is not too late to pay if you have money~"

These words made Shibei and Xia Yan feel very pleased, but Su Ke's eyes flashed: "Your debt is fifty dinars, and the next day it will be two hundred, don't say that I am a loan shark!~hahaha~"

The two were angry and helpless, but as outsiders, it was normal to be a little oppressed, so they had to push open the door with resentment and walk to the town square.
