I really don't want to cross

Chapter 366 Everything...

The next morning.

At dawn, Wood had already woken up.

"I want to eat ground dragon cake..."

Probably because he heard the sound of Wood getting dressed, Buzz, who was half asleep, didn't beat around the bush, and said something very honest.

Then, Buzz seemed to turn over, and the snoring sound came again.

Wood couldn't help smiling, washed his face hastily, left the house, and walked towards the usual street.

The streets of the slums are extremely quiet. The adults living here belong to the type of eating and dying. For them, there is no difference between getting up early and getting up late. Anyway, they are living day after day without any change. Life.

"Maybe……"

Looking at the silent street, Wood had a wry smile on his face: "I am unexpectedly suitable for living here."

Passing through the alley that I have walked through countless times, what I see is like another world; different from the slums, the streets of Asians are already full of people, and those Asians who can’t distinguish individuals from their faces at all People gather together to eat and chat.

At the corner of the street, a werewolf was talking to another werewolf.

"There's a nice Asian tavern opened in the northwest corner of Front Street, do you want to go together tonight?"

"Oh? It's only for demihumans?"

"Of course!"

"..."

Wood walked by and curled his lips.

Racial discrimination is probably unavoidable in any world, and the world he is in is the same.

The so-called demihuman-only stores are shops that prohibit all "humans" from entering, which can be said to be quite discriminatory against human beings; of course, there are not no shops opened by demihumans that accept both demihuman and human customers.

Human beings also have shops similar to 'for human beings'.

This has become an unwritten rule, and the reason for this is the jealous witch Shatila who almost destroyed the world 400 years ago and was finally sealed.

Because the Witch of Envy is a half-elf, when the Witch of Envy was sealed away, the whole world discriminated against the half-elf, one of the subhuman races, among which humans with the largest population base were the most extreme.

With the passage of time, conflicts were stimulated, and finally human beings changed from discrimination against half-elves to discrimination against all demihumans.

As a result, 50 years ago, a large-scale civil war broke out between humans and demihumans in the Kingdom of Lugnica—the demihuman war! !

The war lasted for ten years and ended with the conclusion of peace. Although humans and various demihumans have gradually merged together, 40 years is not enough to wipe out the hatred in that war, so there are still human beings and demihumans. There are many existences that look at each other and are not pleasing to the eye.

But demihumans who live in harmony with humans do not include...half-elves.

At the end of the war, because of the involvement of the half-elves, the demi-humans not only hated the humans, but also excluded the half-elves; unknowingly, it became the current situation...Humans and demi-humans jointly discriminate against the half-elves Condition.

This information is not learned by Wood deliberately, but from various biographical novels. The biographical novels written by demihumans and humans are completely different in style. In short... each has its own, Anyway, for an outsider like Wood, it's quite interesting.

Thinking about these anecdotes, when he came back to his senses, Wood had already arrived at the scone stand of the generous boss.

The business here is as hot as ever, even though Wood had come very early, he had to queue for nearly 2 minutes before it was his turn.

"Well... bring me ten dragon cakes." Wood said.

Because the vegetable field needs to be irrigated in the morning and evening, Wood plans to buy the lunch of the two children together, so that there is no need to worry that they will not come back for lunch. After all, Wood's first goal now is to make the two little ghosts fat.

However, the boss smiled generously: "Sorry, customer, there are no ground dragon cakes today, and the ground dragon meat will not arrive until tomorrow, why don't you buy something else?"

"That's it."

Wood nodded: "Then bring me ten Salamander cakes."

"okay."

After buying the scones, Wood didn't stay outside, but went directly to the civilian area.

At this time, the street has become lively, and the sound of shouting and bargaining echoes on the street.

"Parker, when I go to study the kingdom election, you can't just jump out."

Vaguely, a melodious female voice came into Wood's ears.

Wood paused, looked in the direction of the sound, his eyes passed through each pedestrian, and finally locked on a figure from behind.

It was the back of a tall, silver-haired girl, and on her shoulder was a creature that looked like a cat but was only the size of a palm.

Wood frowned, then shook his head and left.

But he didn't realize that when he turned to leave, the kitten on the shoulder of the silver-haired girl suddenly turned around, and a very humane dignity and fear flashed in his eyes, and he took a deep look at Wood in the distance. The back of leaving.

"What's the matter, Parker?"

"Nothing, maybe it's just my illusion."

……

Passing through the alleys, the world became silent again. Those people in the slums still didn’t get up. When passing by the houses, they could only hear snoring, without any conversation, which brought a deadly atmosphere. .

When Wood returned home, the two boys washed there consciously.

Buzz glanced at the bag Wood was carrying and curled his lips: "It's scones again, you guys are really a waste of money."

"I have to say it every morning, don't you find it annoying?"

Buzz made a funny face at Wood as usual, and then moved to the stone table with Aina.

Wood took out two of them and said with a smile: "There are eight more scones here, which are the food for the two of you in the morning and noon. I will make dinner before you come back."

Buzz's eyes lit up, and Aina, who picked up the cake and pulled it aside, ran outside: "Then let's go play first... No, we'll go directly to water the vegetable garden."

"Let's go after eating."

Obviously, Wood's words were completely in vain, and the two little devils ran towards the vegetable garden on the outskirts of the slums without even looking back.

"cut!"

Wood curled his lips, put the two salamander cakes together in his mouth, and went back to his room to continue reading the novel.

Now that Emilia has appeared, it shouldn't be too far from the tragedy. He may even have arrived in this world, so it's better not to go out and run around, so as not to cause any trouble.

With this in mind, Wood stayed in the house and read books all day.

Seeing that the time is almost up, I reluctantly put away the books and start preparing dinner for the second primary school, which is actually nothing more than baking vegetable cakes.

Although the cakes he baked can only be considered average, they are far more delicious than Aina's... Strictly speaking, they should be safer.

As for why it is safer, I have to mention half a month ago.

Since he decided to live there at that time, Wood naturally wanted to improve his living standard within his ability.

So, on the second day of his stay, he bought oil, salt, and flour.

Ina's eyes lit up at the time, and she gestured to let Wood eat the best scones.

In the end, there were only two simple condiments, salt and oil, and Aina actually made a dark scone wrapped in strange purple smoke, and handed it to Wood with a proud face, letting him taste it... …

After seeing Buzz's schadenfreude expression, Wood understood... It seems that not buying condiments is not to save money, but a way to save life.

So Wood volunteered to take on the job of cooking.

Closer to home.

When Wood finished the meal, the two children also came back, but they were obviously a little tired from playing, and the two of them started drinking water as soon as they came back.

"Stop drinking, you'll be full in a while."

The two young ones laughed dryly, moved to the stone table and began to eat, probably due to drinking too much water, the two took a hasty bite, then went back to the room to rest.

Wood cleaned up the dishes and went back to his room to rest, spending an ordinary day.
