In the Mulian Mountains, where the boundary between the Spring Territory and other countries is the dividing line, a half-grown girl with a shovel in her hand bows deeply to the corpses of the servants lying in a large pit in front of her, and then lifts the shovel in her hand and buries these loyal servants.

Weakness is the original sin.After Eco said this to Nora, she was silent for a while, and then said to the girl, "You are going to bury these faithful servants after all, aren't you?" So, after thanking Eco, the maiden moved the bodies of the servants with a sad heart.

However, she obviously counted a little less: even if she only needed to divide the two corpses twice and go to the place where the other family members died at the bottom of the mountain, but as an ordinary person with no energy, how could it be easy for her to move these two corpses heavier than her? ...... Aren't you worried that their corpses will be eaten by passing bugs or beasts or something? Oh, by the way, I'm not going to help you get that corpse down, because I personally think I've helped you enough, and I don't really want to help you move the corpse anymore."

"...... Yes, I see, senior, I'll go up the mountain now." Nora trembled all over, her expression was slightly aggrieved, but her brain also knew that the girl in front of her had actually helped her too much, so she beat her tired body and walked towards the mountain...... This harsh reality should make you more aware of your weakness and powerlessness, right? Echo, who was the brainchild of intelligence, only felt that this girl was too naïve and ignorant at the first moment when he knew the reason why Nora was robbed; The simple and easy-to-understand truth of "wealth is not exposed" It seems that this girl and his family don't understand, especially when their own ability is not very good, it is simply stupid to do so.

However, in Eco's concept, if the girl has strong strength, even if it is more high-profile, it will not bring trouble to herself, so for this girl who still has a good impression of herself, Eco decided to let her understand her weakness by herself, in order to stimulate her self-motivated mind. In Nora's previous words, Eco guessed that the girl was not actually a person without talent.So, the reason why she was 13 years old but still had no ability, but the girl who yearned for the world of cultivators was naturally labeled by Eco as "not enterprising". (So in fact, Nora was shot while lying down, after all, the original owner of this body really didn't have the intention of entering the world of cultivators, and her family was just an ordinary merchant family, and it was unlikely that she would be able to know the "high" mage; In other words, Nora's lack of magic is really not her problem, and she doesn't even know which element she has more affinity for....... This is what Nora chose to give up while watching the soldiers at home work hard, so Eco's guess wasn't entirely wrong.)

After a moment of sadness, she suddenly turned around and knelt down to Eco, bowed her head and said, "Please accept me as a disciple!"

Looking at the beautiful and wolf-like girl who was kneeling on the ground and kowtowing, but her expression was full of determination. However, she still did not answer the girl, but said, "I am not good at preaching and teaching, so I can't take you as a disciple...... But it seems that I and you are both in the same destination, the first academy on the continent, the 'Luoyin Demon Martial Academy', I don't know if you want to go to Luoyin City with me to report?" Eco didn't lie, with the knowledge of the mercenary leader, she naturally knew that her ability was quite different from the inhabitants of this continent.So she was actually not suitable for teaching the people of this continent to cultivate from scratch, and the only thing she could teach was the spells that were different from this world.

Hearing Eco's words, Nora couldn't help but feel a little disappointed in her heart, after all, the other party didn't want to accept herself as an apprentice.But think about it carefully, if the other party is really not good at leading apprentices as she said, maybe going to Luoyin Academy is a better choice For Nora, who has experience in her previous life, she naturally knows that it is not that the higher her ability, the more suitable she is to teach students. The teaching quality of the Luoyin Academy, which has been the pride of countless heavens, naturally does not need to be doubted.And since the other party took the initiative to invite herself to go to the Luoyin Academy with her, there is no doubt that she is helping herself, after all, with such a lagging memory of herself, the speed of the other party's progress will inevitably be affected, right? So it's really lucky to meet this kind senior...... Cute and powerful and kind-hearted.,This kind of character is like those anime heroines.,It's just that I've lost the qualification to be the male protagonist....[,!]...

Shaking her head silently, throwing away a bunch of inexplicable distractions in her heart, Nora replied with a smile, "Well, it's a great honor!"

Dividing line

In the afternoon, Eco gave Nora the auxiliary spell of acceleration and blessing of stamina and body restoration, and then he took Nora along at the speed of a rapid march; However, the two of them still talked all the way through, although most of the time Nora was talking alone, and Eco was listening to Nora's words in a posture of listening carefully.

It wasn't until the evening when the sun went down that the two of them walked out of the mountain (walking on the periphery, it takes about 2 days at the walking speed of ordinary people) and came to the foot of this side of the mountain in Yar Country. And there are a lot of small injuries such as abrasions on her body, but what makes Eco appreciate it very much is that this girl actually endured it without saying a word, even if she falls because of the pain, she will get up on her own and not be as squeamish as the average little girl (this is inevitable for Nora), it seems that what happened today has changed her a lot, Eco thought to herself.

Later, the two went to the hotel and booked a room as a place to stay tonight.

Once inside, Eco sat Nora down in a chair, then came to Nora's side and performed a major healing spell on her body.

(Uh, so she knows...... But I didn't expect that I would really be able to complete today's rapid march, if it was me in my previous life, even if someone blessed me with those few spells, I am afraid I would not be able to walk down, thanks to Eco's willingness to listen to my noise in her ear today, so it seems that she is really gentle.) Looking at the blonde girl in front of her, who was checking herself, Nora thought, and at the same time, a thought crept into her mind.

After checking Nora, Eco nodded, and then took out a pair of headphones from Nora's luggage, this world's unique "portable music broadcaster" (this world is called an echo flute) In fact, I have to say that the history of civilization in this world is much older than that of the earth, even if there has been no so-called "industrial revolution" here, but there is its own unique "energy industry", (that is, the use of magic and fighting energy in daily production and life activities) and corresponds to the "civil" In terms of industry, the progress of this world is no worse than that of Eco's time, and things like the "echo flute" have been updated many times.

However, the development of the "military industry" in this world is not as rapid as in the previous life. After all, the inhabitants of this world themselves can obtain the ability to attack and protect themselves, and the power system of this world does not take the "military industry" route, so in addition to simple magic guns, there is no weapon that can hit the world destroying level.

It's just that this kind of weapon is not a threat to the strong at all, after all, the strong are not meat targets that you can't fight back, and their speed is absolutely able to avoid this kind of attack.

Ahem, it's far away, back to reality.

Taking out the echo flute, Eco put both of its headphones in her ears and said to Nora with her usual inorganic expression, "I want to relax by listening to songs, so you have twenty ...... No, you can stay in the bathroom for thirty minutes and take a shower, and then I will wash, and by the way, since I don't know if you will have the habit of singing in the bathroom, I decided to leave this bathroom soundproofed for the time being."

"Huh?" Nora was a little inexplicable to the little girl's words, but she was still very obedient and walked into the bathroom with her clothes and began to take a bath. The pent-up negative feelings of guilt and sorrow for being a drag on her feet and killing the servants all erupted at this time, and Nora suddenly appeared with Eco's inorganic face and the meaning of the words she said to her before she entered the bathroom.

"I want to listen to the song and relax, so you have twenty ...... No, thirty minutes is enough to stay in the bathroom...... I decided to leave this bathroom soundproofed for the time being."

(I see...... Do you want me to have a space and time to be weak, so that I can vent the pain and sadness in my heart and then stand up strongly...... Eco, thank you.) The half-grown girl, who had figured this out, howled and cried in the bathroom where no one was around, as if she wanted to cry out all the pain in her heart......

Outside the bathroom at this time, Eco took headphones and glanced in the direction of the bathroom, silently lowering his head and concentrating on enjoying the music and songs of this world.
