Wrong, my props refresh every day

"Please help me practice, Miss Liu!"

Chapter 14: Asking for the Useless Elf’s Lap Pillow!

A sharp pain hit him, and when the wooden sword hit his lower abdomen for the seventh time, Xingjian finally realized what was wrong...

This Level 4, Level 2 Adventurer "Gas" doesn't understand the concept of showing mercy at all!!

At this moment, Xing Jian felt a buzzing in his head, and his vision blurred instantly, as if his soul was about to be shaken out of his body. Suddenly, his retina surfaced with the revolving lantern of his past life and the phantom of his grandmother washing clothes by the river...

"Ms. Liu...this is already a near-death experience!"

Xingjian shook her body in pain and finally fell into a pile of soft sheets hanging out to dry. Her nostrils were instantly filled with the warmth of the sun and the rich fragrance of lavender, and her consciousness gradually faded away.

In the dim light, the sound of branches falling to the ground came into my ears, followed by the sound of hurried footsteps coming from afar.

After an unknown amount of time, Xingjian slowly woke up and found herself lying on the ground. Miss Liu was squatting beside her with a look of anxiety and regret on her face. Her eyes were slightly red and she kept muttering:

"Xingjian, I'm sorry, I was too rough, I really didn't mean it, I, I can't do anything right... Ovo."

Xing Jian shook her still dizzy head, forced a smile and comforted her, "Miss Liu, it's okay. I know you're doing this for my own good. You want me to become stronger quickly. This is just an accident. Really, I... I can handle it."

Xingjian now feels a little regretful. If she had been lucky enough to draw the precious [First Aid Bandage] earlier, the pain in her body would have been alleviated a lot and she would have recovered faster.

Miss Liu still blamed herself, clutching the corner of her clothes with both hands, lowering her head and mumbling:

"But, I almost hurt you badly. What if..."

Seeing her so upset, Xing Jian suddenly had an idea in his mind, and he said weakly: "Miss Liu, how about this, if you accidentally knock me out next time, you can give me a knee pillow as compensation, okay?"

When Liu heard this, his cheeks instantly turned red all the way to his ears. His eyes were filled with astonishment and shyness, and he stammered:

“Eh heh heh heh? Mr. Hoshimi, you…what are you talking about?! This, this is impossible!!”

Seeing this, Xing Jian deliberately sighed in disappointment and lowered his eyes: "Okay, I knew it. I was abrupt. I'm sorry, Miss Liu, I almost forgot that you elves have mysophobia. This kind of thing is totally impossible. Let's continue!!"

As he spoke, Xingjian staggered to his feet, his shaky body looking like he would fall down again in the next second.

Seeing Xingjian's lost and reluctant look, Liu couldn't help but feel a ripple in his heart.

Suddenly, Liu remembered the scene when Xingjian was teasing Anya after dinner yesterday, and touching the cat-like little girl's head with a doting look on his face. Anya's cute appearance and Xingjian's gentle movements were frozen in her mind.

Thinking about the fact that Anya was also a Level 4 adventurer like her, and that she was not only likable but also qualified to be a teacher for Hoshimi, Miss Liu felt a surge of jealousy in her heart. Her thoughts were in a tangle, and she blurted out:

"Wait... Actually, if it's Mr. Hoshimi, it's not impossible... It's OK!"

"Hmm? What's okay?"

"It's...it's about the knee pillow thing. It's not okay. After all, this is for compensation, not because..."

As she spoke, Miss Liu's face had already turned as red as a ripe tomato.

"Wow~"

A sweet exclamation came from the second-floor railing.

The cat girl Anya leaned forward with messy orange curly hair, her furry ears twitching excitedly: "Ryu-chan's lap pillow, meow! Let's reserve one too, meow~"

Xier was holding a cup of steaming hot honey tea, leaning lazily against the door frame. Her amber eyes curved into crescents as she looked at the two people and teased, "Hey, Liu-chan, this is not like your usual style. For Hoshimi, you can even overcome your mysophobia? Mr. Hoshimi, you are really sinful~"

Liu's face turned even redder. She stood up in panic, waving her hands in defense:

"Don't talk nonsense, I just... I just feel bad for hurting Mr. Xingjian."

But the more she explained, the happier Xier and Anya laughed. Then they revealed a look that could only be understood but not expressed in words. The whole tavern was filled with their cheerful atmosphere.

Miss Liu is completely blushing!!

What a waste~

"Anija, go bring up the wild boar meat from the basement. Liu, we haven't finished washing the dishes from last night, so hurry up and clean them up."

At this time, Mia's mother's voice was heard, and everyone had to say goodbye to morning exercises and quickly entered a busy state.

Xingjian looked at the back of the cat girl jumping into the basement, his fingertips unconsciously stroking the short blade.

In the blade's reflection, Liu's back, washing dishes by the kitchen window, stood out straight, though the blush on the tips of his ears didn't fade until noon...

----

In the afternoon, when the complicated affairs of the tavern were almost finished, Miss Chun, the leader of the [Hephaestus Family], arrived as scheduled, ready to take Xingjian to register as an adventurer.

The two walked side by side and set out on the journey to the Adventurer's Guild.

Along the way, Tsubaki gave Hoshimi a detailed introduction to the guild's affairs and registration procedures.

The Adventurer's Guild is responsible for the operation of the labyrinth city of Orario, the management of adventurers and dungeons, and the trading of magic stones and dropped items.

Here you can accept various commissions, get rewards, and exchange adventure experiences.

This place is governed by Uranus, the God of the Guild, and is operated through lower-level employees. Although it is centered around the main god, in order to maintain a neutral stance, guild staff are not given the gods' grace (Pharna).

Registering as an adventurer is the first step to embarking on your adventure, and it means officially stepping into this dungeon full of opportunities and challenges! !

The bronze door of the guild hall was kicked open with a loud bang. At this moment, several adventurers who were filling out forms looked up in unison, all of them surprised.

As the chief blacksmith of the Hephaestus clan and a level 5 first-level adventurer, Chun is quite famous in Orario. Everyone's attention was instantly drawn to her. There was a brief moment of surprise, and then a burst of exclamations exploded in the hall.

"Wow, it's Miss Tsubaki, the leader of the Hephaestus Families! Why would she bring a newcomer here herself?"

"Ms. Tsubaki usually takes on highly difficult commissions, and it's rare to see her involved in new client matters. Who is this newcomer?"

Everyone was talking and whispering to each other, their eyes moving back and forth between Xingjian and Tsubaki, trying to find the answer from them.

Chun, however, remained calm and walked steadily forward with Xingjian. Without further explanation, he took Xingjian straight to the registration office.

The guild registrar was also surprised when he saw Tsubaki, and quickly stood up and greeted him respectfully:

"Hello, Miss Tsubaki."

Chun nodded politely and said, "This kid has good aptitude. I specially helped him register as an adventurer."

These simple words once again triggered a round of murmurs of exclamation from those around them.

"So what kind of consultant does Mr. Newcomer need?"

The clerk in charge of registration came to his senses and asked dutifully.

The guild will arrange adventurer consultants for adventurers. Adventurer consultants will make suggestions on exploration based on the adventurers' actual situation, provide relevant intelligence, and warn about dangerous areas, etc. One adventurer consultant will be responsible for multiple adventurers.

Chapter 15 A date with Miss Ais?

"Aegina Zul. Choose her as my advisor."

Before Xingjian could finish his words, there was a sudden dull thud of a book falling to the ground from the second floor.

A busy, brown-haired half-elf, holding up his glasses, poked his head out from behind the filing rack, his pointed ears trembling at an alarming frequency.

Chun suddenly burst out laughing. "You actually mentioned Encyclopedia? You have a sharp eye! That girl once scolded eight new recruits until they cried and changed their jobs!"

Xingjian responded seriously:

"That's because Miss Aina is in charge. She's there to make sure new adventurers stay alive in the dungeon and don't die easily."

Aegina Zul was originally the head of Bell Crane and Nina's sister. She was a half-human and elf with a dignified and beautiful appearance.

She is conscientious and rigorous in her work, kind and considerate to others, and with her sweet appearance, she is extremely popular in the guild and is an ace receptionist.

The first adventurer Aegina led was a 15-year-old human woman named Maris, but she died in the dungeon the following year. Since then, many newcomers have entered the dungeon under her guidance, but many have never returned safely.

These tragic experiences made Aegina worried about the new adventurers who had just joined the dungeon, so she often taught them sternly, just to ensure that everyone could get out of the dungeon alive.

Hearing Xingjian's generous praise, Aina was surprised and happy, and hurried down from the second floor of the guild.

After seeing that the one who specifically requested her was a new member of the Hephaestus Familia, her emerald pupils suddenly contracted. She asked in disbelief, "Thank you for the compliment. Are you sure you want me to be your advisor?"

"Of course, Miss Aegina is very responsible, which is exactly what I need."

The tips of the half-elf's ears glowed coral as he clutched the "Dungeon Abnormal Event Record" tightly in his arms.

----

With Aina's assistance, Xingjian successfully completed the registration and officially became an adventurer.

Xingjian is currently in a stable situation. After all, as a newcomer who is given special attention by the city's largest family, the Hephaestus Family, even if he takes out many incredible props, those who covet him can only give up the idea and dare not act rashly.

With a vision of the future in mind, Xingjian said goodbye to Miss Tsubaki and returned to the tavern. As he reached the door, he suddenly stopped, his eyes full of surprise.

Miss Ess Wallenstein, known as the "Sword Princess" by everyone, was holding a branch and concentrating on drawing potato-shaped patterns on the mud with the tip. The afterglow of the evening shone on her long hair, which was as bright as golden sand, and cast a layer of warm light.

Completely different from the outfit she wore when she returned from the dungeon yesterday, Ais was now wearing her usual casual clothes.

Her long, golden hair was loosely tied into a side bow with a lavender satin ribbon, and a few strands of hair fell on her porcelain-white shoulders.

The creamy white one-shoulder sweater revealed her delicate collarbone, and the fluffy lantern cuffs slid down as she raised her hand, revealing a section of her slender forearm.

The lavender pleated miniskirt swayed gently in the breeze, and the hem of the skirt was cut into an asymmetrical wavy arc, revealing the slender lines wrapped in pure white over-the-knee socks.

At this time, Miss Ais seemed to notice Xingjian's arrival. She turned her head slightly and her eyes met Xingjian's.

At that moment, Xingjian seemed to be back to the scene when he first met her. The world around them was now quiet, and only the two of them were staring at each other. Ai Si was the first to break the silence and said softly:

"You're back."

The voice was gentle, but it made Xingjian's heart inexplicably tighten.

"Well, I just came back from registering as an adventurer with Miss Tsubaki. Miss Ais, why are you here?"

Ai Si lowered her eyes slightly, then raised them again after a moment, a subtle hint of anticipation flashing in her eyes as she spoke:

"Promise."

Agreement?

Oh!

Xingjian remembered that last night Ai Si asked him where she could buy fried potato balls. He said that if Ai Si didn't mind, he could take her there the next day. Unexpectedly, Ai Si really kept her promise and came. This was really surprising.

It seems that the only thing that can attract Ai Si's interest, besides the dungeon, is the fried potato balls.

"No problem." Xingjian smiled and called out to the blonde elf in the tavern, "Miss Liu, please help me finish my shift. I need to take Miss Aisi out shopping."

"Eh?!!" Liu, who was wiping the wine glasses at the bar, heard the voice, looked up and saw Xingjian leaving these words, then hurriedly left with the blond adventurer from last night, and disappeared from sight in an instant.

Liu was completely stunned, and the glass in his hand slipped and shattered on the ground with a "bang", which naturally caused Mia's mother to scold him.

…………

"Please use."

The chestnut-haired girl in front of the canvas tent smiled and handed over the golden paper package.

Ais picked up the small wallet with cute animals printed on it and carefully counted the Faris. Xingjian took out the gold coins given by Hephaestus and said loudly:

"All flavors, and two extra orders of creamy red bean-flavored potato balls."

Looking at the glittering gold coins handed over by Xingjian, the girl waved her hands in panic and said, "But, but I can't find the change..."

"Then leave it here." Xingjian looked at Ai Si beside him and said, "When this lady eats her 100th serving, how about using the change to exchange for a permanent VIP card for your stall?"

Ai Si was slightly stunned, turned her head to look at Xing Jian, a touch of emotion flashed in her eyes, and she said softly: "Thank you, thank you."

"You're welcome. Just let Miss Aisi treat you back next time."

There will be a next time! ?

Hurray hurray!!

The chestnut-haired girl looked at the two cool guys and pretty girls, then suddenly picked up a ladle and banged it on the iron wok, a cute smile on her face. "Ouni-san, you took me out on a date dressed so cutely, and you only bought fried potato balls?"

Ai Si tilted her head, the bow on her blonde hair brushing against the back of Xing Jian's hand. "Date?"

"Ms. Ais, you will understand later." Xingjian replied vaguely.

After buying the potato balls, the two did not rush back to the pub, but strolled slowly on the streets of Orario.

"good to eat."

Ai Si held the steaming hot potato balls in her hands, took a light bite, and a satisfied expression immediately appeared on her face. She spoke while chewing.

Xingjian couldn't help but smile at the cute look of the girl eating sweets, but couldn't help asking:

"Miss Aisi, besides fried potato balls, what else do you like? Tell me, anything is fine."

"whatever?"

Xingjian smiled slightly, took out the [Hyperspace Cutter] and slashed it lightly, and a tablecloth embroidered with food patterns appeared out of thin air.
