Chapter Ninety-Five: Red Pine City

"Is this a joke?"

When Wren returned to Ciel's house with the three fruits, he saw a scene that he would never be able to let go.

Chill collapsed on the table, blood running down the table and down the door.

Wren hurriedly stepped forward and straightened Kill, and then he found the hilt of the sword in Kill's chest, which was the short sword of one of the two previous swords.

"Who did this?!!"

After Wren shouted Kill's name a few times, but there was no response, he finally remembered what to do at this time, and he tested Kill's breath and found that there was no more.

Then he noticed that there was a piece of paper in Chil's hand.

Despite having a bad premonition in his heart, Wren picked up the paper and opened it to see that it was Chill's suicide note:

"Adventurer, I'm so sorry I deceived you. Those two swords are not what I used for hunting, I am a waste, I don't dare to go out during the famine, I will only rely on the little things that Alu brought back, so I can't use the sword at all. In the first place, I made those two swords to kill Alu, and I wanted to avenge my family. At first I went looking for it with my sword, but Alu ran away, thinking it had seen my sword and was afraid to approach it. I made another dagger and tried to kill it secretly, but it still avoided me. Now that I think about it, I'm so stupid, a person like me can't beat Alu with any weapon. ”

"Even if you kill Alu this time, I don't know if I'm here for revenge or if I really want Alu to be freed. Actually, I think Alu must have hatred in his heart, after all, he was abandoned by his original owner first, and then treated like that by the people in the village, I'm afraid he also hated us, so he didn't want to come back. ”

"So whether you do it or not, maybe it's a good thing, and if Alu can survive, it's good. But I can't go on like this. It was I who left Alu at home, and I couldn't get food for my family during the famine, and I didn't even know who to seek revenge on when my family died. No matter how you look at it, I'm a piece of waste, and I've been living with regret for the past few years, so I want to spend time with my family. ”

"Adventurer, I don't know if you took Alu with you, but I want to thank you anyway. Take the two swords I promised you before. ”

Wren looked at the suicide note and was speechless for a long time: "......."

........

Two months later, the dusty Wren came to the first city he encountered in this era, Red Pine City. This was the last city the old knight Bug could remember, he had visited.

Further down, Wren will have to figure it out on his own.

He planned to stay in the city for a few days to see if he could get some news, it stands to reason that Karlsham is so famous, and in a city like Red Pine City, maybe someone will know where Karsham is.

As for where to inquire about the news, this is also simple, there is an adventurer's guild here in Red Pine City, Wren can go there to see if there is any work, and by the way, communicate with other adventurers, maybe someone will know.

However, as soon as he entered the city gate, Wren was attracted by a voice.

On the edge of the street, three wooden boxes were piled up, and a young man who looked to be in his twenties was standing on them and telling an impassioned story.

"In a few days, Red Pine City will be at war with the neighboring Steel Wind City again, and this is not the first time the two sides have faced each other. Have you ever wondered why we are fighting, friends? Is it hatred? And where did the hatred come from? I researched the history of Red Pine City and Steel Wind City, and found a very interesting thing, as early as the beginning of the city, Red Pine City and Steel Wind City had the possibility of an alliance, but the Red Pine City Lord at that time, thinking that the wife of the Steel Wind City Lord had elven blood, refused the request for an alliance, and then the two sides began to fight for more than 500 years, until today, countless people have died in the war between the two sides. In fact, the wife of Steel Wind City has been dead for hundreds of years, but the two sides are still fighting. ”

"So, why can't the two sides form an alliance just because the Steelwind City Lord's wife has elven blood? From this question, we can derive more questions, why is the world so chaotic? There is war everywhere? What can we do to resolve this situation? If you want to know....... Forehead......, don't go! ”

The young man kept talking on the box, but often the people either looked at him and left, or listened to a sentence or two before leaving, and at last there were never a few people left in front of him.

Wren also listened for a moment, and then shook his head with interest and planned to leave.

This young man really can't speak, and how can people nowadays care about such a thing as "world peace."

Who knew that just his shaking of his head was seen by the young man, and he shouted at Wren: "Why are you shaking your head, is there anything wrong with what I said?" ”

Wren didn't look back, just waved his hand: "It's nothing, I'm just not interested." ”

The young man scratched his mind, as if thinking about something, and soon jumped off the box and trotted over to Wren: "Well, I wonder why you are not interested in my speech, don't you care why everyone fights so often?" Well? You're an adventurer, have you ever wondered why there are monsters and wars everywhere out there? ”

Wren looked at the young man with interest: "Oh, then you know why? ”

"Of course!" The young man, who was excited to see that someone was interested in his words, took out a torn book from his clothes, and said to Wren, "Of course I know why the world is so chaotic. ”

Wren looked at the cover of the book, and the name of the book was handwritten in very ugly handwriting: "Future World".

"This is the book you wrote?"

To be honest, seeing a book with such a name in this day and age, Wren is still very interested. As a "futuristic person", it is interesting to look at the past and guess the future world.

The young man shook his head: "No, no, no, I didn't write it, and I don't know who wrote it, but after reading this book, I was greatly inspired, and I realized the truth of the development of the whole world!" By the way, let's talk slowly in another place, just ....... Just go to my house. I forgot to mention that my name is Ansel. “

"Wren."

"Wren, come, my house is over there, let's go there and I'll tell you about my amazing thoughts."

"It's not good......"

Before Wren refused, Ansel had already taken Wren's hand and walked away in a hurry.
