What kind of person is Curry? I'm afraid that few people really know about it except for his father, who is no longer there.

Few people know about his past, and few people have seen his tears.

Perhaps, Curry doesn't need anyone to understand either. For him, as a traveling merchant, fate is a long and lonely journey, and the cold moon and the shadow reflected in the moon are his most loyal traveling companions, and everything else is just superfluous.

But...... There is another question, such a person, such a Curry, has he ever been confused about something?

Still, few people know.

......

Enjoying the purity of not being in time and space because Rawls suddenly had a fever and decided to read a book, Curry calculated today's account, leaned back in his chair and exhaled, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth that had not changed for thousands of years, and took a sip of black tea.

Hearing the movement at the door, Ke Rui subconsciously raised his eyelids and looked over, and then he was slightly stunned.

Two odd guys who looked about him, also wearing black magic cloaks and hoods, and shrouded in shadows, walked into the store, and Curry couldn't even tell what they looked like, and he couldn't even tell their genders.

These two people are naturally the elf princess Elena and the elf Casey. In order to prevent unnecessary trouble, they have reused the same method of hiding their identities as before.

Although Casey is not a reckless person, she is inexperienced after all, and the moment she enters the store, she walks towards their set goal without hesitation.

Fortunately, Elena was much more steady in comparison, and reached out in front of Casey, and said softly in a voice that only the two of them could hear:

"Don't be in a hurry, don't get noticed. ”

"Yes......" Casey bowed her head slightly and stepped behind Elena.

What neither of the elves nor the servant noticed was that Curry, who was sitting behind the counter in the innermost part of the store, had a faint blue light flashing under the shadow of his cloak.

In terms of her ability and attitude, Elena is definitely an outstanding princess, and few people can compare with her. But, as if no one could be truly perfect, even she, when she stepped into this small shop, made a serious mistake.

She didn't take this store too seriously at all!

Just now, the moment Elena reached out to stop Casey, Curry happened to see her arm exposed in the air, and then ...... Curry's gaze changed.

"That's ......"

Even if it was only for a moment, Elena retracted her arm, but the thing on her wrist Corey was sure that she couldn't be mistaken! Looking at Elena and Casey walking around the store like ordinary customers, the smile on the corner of Corrie's mouth suddenly became more unpredictable, and his eyes in the darkness became a little deeper.

Finally, under Curry's unsurprising gaze, Elena finally picked up the item and walked towards the counter.

"How much. ”

Putting things on the counter, Elena's voice was as serious and fast as ever, looking at Curry. Even though it was all in the shadows, Curry could still feel her compelling gaze.

Looking at the things on the counter, the faint smile on the corner of Ke Rui's mouth became more unpredictable: "This thing is not for sale." ”

Not for sale?

As soon as these words came out, Elena didn't react, Casey behind her was a little out of breath, and just as she was about to step forward, she was stopped by Elena again.

"Why?"

Looking at Corry, Elena's gaze remained calm. With this calmness, Ke Rui secretly glanced at the stranger in front of him in his heart.

Looking at Elena, and then at the item on the counter, Curry was silent for a moment, sighed lightly, and reached out to pick it up.

This is the dusty silver hourglass that has been placed under the shelf not far from Curry's side, inconspicuous and uncaring, if it were not placed on the counter today, I am afraid no one would have found that Curry still has such a collection in this small shop.

Gently blowing the dust off the surface of the hourglass, Curry carefully wiped it with his cloak. After a closer look, I found that this hourglass is really beautiful, and the silt in it is like stardust for some reason, which looks like a dream.

With a flash of memory in his eyes, Curry's eyes lowered slightly, and he put it back on the counter.

"This is something that my father left me to wait for someone to return it to where it truly belongs. I've been waiting for so many years, and now that you've got it, it's yours. ”

Pushing the hourglass forward, Curry's gaze calmly looked at Elena:

"What doesn't belong to me naturally has no price, and now, I'll give it back to the place where it belongs. ”

Casey looked at Curry, her big eyes blinking, and her hard gaze fluctuated slightly, as if she felt something. Elena, on the other hand, didn't say anything, didn't even look at Curry again, picked up the hourglass, turned and left, and Casey could only follow quickly.

Seeing the backs of Elena and Casey disappear from the doorway, Curry leaned back in his chair, took a sip of black tea, felt the bitter taste in his mouth that was enough to make ordinary people twitch, and showed an even more bitter smile:

"Father, I don't know how much you can accomplish if you want me to do it, but now, at least one more thing has been done. ”

"Pedal, pedal—"

At this moment, a familiar sound of going down the stairs made Ke Rui's face stiffen, and then he slapped his head: "How did you forget this guy!"

Rawls walked straight to the back of the counter, pulled a chair next to Curry and sat down, staring at Curry with two big eyes, and looked at Curry for a while:

"You know, I have a lot of questions, right?" Rawls's voice sounded like a curious child, but also a little threatening: "Tell me, what is that hourglass, what does it have to do with uncle, what does it have to do with those two guys, why do you say 'return' to them, and what do they come from?"

"You ask so many questions at once, which one do you want me to answer first?"

Curry rolled his eyes, glanced at Rawls, and suddenly asked a question that seemed to be a donkey's lips not a horse's mouth: "Rawls, do you remember what occupations my father did before he became a traveling merchant?"

"Uh......"

Rawls was stunned, then crossed his fingers and counted carefully: "It seems to ...... I've been a thief, I've been a killer, I've been a mercenary, and I've been a great alchemist...... By the way, I was a beggar!"

"It's okay not to say anything about this last one. Curry touched his nose and coughed dryly twice, then shook his head with a smile and added, "It's all right, but you have one less." In fact, in the beginning, when my father was my age, he was a hunter wandering a mountain range on the border between the northern human race and the elven territory. ”

"Hunter?"

"Yes, hunter. Ke Rui's eyes flashed with a trace of memory, raised his head, and exhaled softly: "At that time, my father was young and vigorous, strong in blood, loved mountains and forests, and roamed in the mountains like a beast all year round. It was also the experience of that period that allowed him to accumulate a lot of incredible survival experience, and generated the terrifying instinct of a hunter beast, so even if I have not been a hunter now, I have more or less inherited this instinct from my father, and I was born to understand the laws between hunters and prey, and know how to be a hunter and avoid becoming a prey...... Off topic. ”

Under Rawls's "normal" gaze, Curry coughed twice again.

"However, if you want to know the answer to the question you asked, you have to understand all of this, because ...... That's where the story begins. ”
