Fulilian: Becomes a disciple of Celia at the beginning

After a brief analysis, Gut picked up the hat and walked in the direction of the wind, intending to return the hat to the owner.

"Da da da-"

As hurried footsteps gradually approached, Gut looked in the direction of the sound. It seemed that the task of finding the owner was not complicated.

However, when he saw the person coming, Gut's expression couldn't help but be dazed for a moment.

"Hello, sir. This is my wife's hat. Thank you for helping us find it."

"I see. It's your wife's hat. No wonder it's a ladies' style. Please keep it."

Gut pretended to be relaxed and breathed a sigh of relief, then smiled and handed the hat to the man in front of him who was dressed formally and wearing single-lens lenses.

【Ding! 】

[Daily Task: Do one good deed a day has been completed]

After receiving the system's prompt, Gut pressed the brim of his hat again, nodded slightly to the man in front of him, and then turned and left alone.

However, even after Gut had walked away, the man was still holding his wife's hat, staring at the direction where Gut had disappeared with a serious look.

"Duncan!"

“Hoo-hoo-hoo-”

Suddenly, a pleasant female voice sounded behind the man. After hearing that it was his wife Laktilei's voice, Duncan's frown naturally relaxed. When he turned to look at his wife, there was a smile on his face.

"Hey~ My hat was found."

Lactiere looked at Duncan in surprise, took the hat from his hand, smiled, and leaned against her husband.

"Well, dear. But it wasn't me who found the hat. It was a gentleman who was passing by."

Duncan said this, handing the lady's hat in his hand to his wife.

"Is that so? Then I wish this kind gentleman a good day as well."

As Lektire spoke, he put his hat back on his head.

In order to prevent it from being blown away by the wind again, she asked her husband Duncan to pat the top of her hat a few times with his hands.

"But Duncan, are you worried about something? Why are you so absent-minded?"

After adjusting her top hat, Lektire looked at her husband's expression, tilted her head and asked in confusion.

"Is it really that obvious?" Duncan laughed helplessly, took his wife's hand and explained.

"Indeed, I am a little concerned about what happened just now."

"I always feel like that kind gentleman seems to know me, but I have no impression of him at all."

"Since you can't figure it out, then don't think about it anymore!"

Laktire looked at Duncan holding her hand, pouted at her husband, and then, while Duncan was stunned, she suddenly exerted force with her palm, pulled Duncan up and ran in one direction.

"Laketire?"

"Huh~huh~"

"Duncan, I heard there's a delicious restaurant in this city [Oisaster]. Don't think about anything else, just come with me to find some delicious food."

"."

"Well, if you want."

Chapter 2 Daily Tasks (Daily Entrustment)

[Host: Gut]

[Activated entries: Traveler (gold), Isolated from the world (colorless), Otherworldly Chef (blue), Atheist (white)]

【Entry effect details:】

【Traveler (Gold)】

[Your soul is constructed differently from this world, and due to time travel, it has also acquired some of the attributes of time and space.]

[Effect: Your memory cannot be read or edited in any form or by any means; you possess a high resistance to magic and curses involving the soul; you possess a high aptitude for time and space.]

【Independence from the world (none)】

[As a time traveler, your destiny has not yet been anchored by this world]

[Effect: Before you actively anchor this world, you cannot be chosen by any means targeting fate (such as prophecy, fate curse, etc.), but at the same time, you will also be unable to receive any gifts and blessings from fate.]

Note: When you build more shared memories or form a deeper bond with someone/a place, your destiny will be anchored in that world, and this entry will disappear.

【.】

"Independent from the world"

Gut looked at the entry on the system panel and muttered to himself.

"If I successfully establish a mentor-disciple relationship with Celia, I'll probably have to say goodbye to this entry."

"However, being able to stay by the side of Celia, the magic master, is more secure than this single entry."

Pulling the brim of his hat down again, Gut stopped beside an inn.

The hotel's decoration looks good from the outside. It is located in a corner of the city of Oissast, away from the city and quiet enough.

What’s even better is that this hotel is right next to the moat. As long as you choose a room by the window, you can enjoy the beautiful lake view when you wake up every day.

For a magician's practice, it is very important to maintain a calm and relaxed state.

After all, if you relax your mind, even the magic power extracted during meditation will be slightly higher than normal.

Gut walked to the hotel front desk and had a brief conversation with the hotel owner, and then agreed on a long-term stay price that satisfied both parties.

After Gut presented a bag of copper coins and several silver coins and registered a pseudonym called [Gu Qi], he finally had a place to stay temporarily in the city of [Oissast].

After taking the key from the innkeeper, Gut found his room according to the number on the sign. After pushing open the door, he looked up and down at the environment in the room.

The furnishings in the room were exactly as described by the hotel owner.

The space is neither too big nor too small, and the furniture is neither too many nor too few. Apart from the soft and elastic bed and a small balcony overlooking the lake, there is nothing else that can be called outstanding.

But this is enough.

After hanging up his coat, Gut lay down on the bed in the hotel, called up the system interface again, and browsed the daily tasks.

【Task Module】

[Main Quest: None]

Daily Tasks (1/3)

"Oh~, what a pity."

"I haven't finished today's 'Daily Commission' yet. Dreams of sleeping through the night are just wishful thinking now."

After complaining a few words in bed, Gut rolled off the soft and comfortable big bed with a somersault, unbuttoned his shirt, and started doing "vigorous exercise" in the hotel room.

Well, serious strenuous exercise, like sit-ups, push-ups, and so on.

The warriors in this world don't seem to have any systematic training methods. Perhaps they do exist, but civilian adventurers like Gut just can't access them.

But no matter what, basic exercise movements may not be as effective in strengthening the body, but the physical foundation they lay is still very solid.

"Tick tock. Tick tock"

As Gut's body rose and fell on the floor of the hotel, drops of sweat condensed from his forehead, from his abdominal muscles, and from every hot part of his body, dripping onto the floor to form a puddle.

As Gut accelerated his push-ups, he also felt the feedback from the muscles in his body.

"It's almost time."

【Ding!】

[Daily Task: Becoming Stronger (Physical Training): Reached the Maximum Completion Standard]

[Completion: 300%]

"Huh~, it's finally over."

After finishing a standard push-up, Gut got up from the floor of the hotel, grabbed the towel beside him, and wiped the sweat off his body casually a few times. Before his body temperature returned to normal, he walked shirtless to the balcony area of ​​the room, sat cross-legged, and began to meditate.

A moist breeze blew in the evening, taking away a lot of heat from Gut's body.

However, Gut, who was sitting cross-legged, was not disturbed at all by the temporary cold. Instead, he immersed all his mind in meditation, using his vast mental power to gradually expand the upper limit of magic power that this body could bear.

To be honest, this kind of practice is definitely not healthy. After all, after a long period of exercise, the body will be in a state of low immunity for a period of time. At this time, if you are naked and exposed to the wind, it is extremely easy to catch a cold.

Although Gut knew about this disadvantage, he still practiced in this way because he found through practice that in this cold state of being cold outside and hot inside, his meditation state could reach an extremely excellent level.

The colder it is, the more you can immerse your mind in it, and the more effective your magic practice will be.

Of course, even with Gut's body, which was tempered according to the standards of a warrior, he could not withstand every training session.

Things like colds and fevers are common.
