The Witcher: Son of the Planes.

Miyin Town is really remote, more than 200 miles away from the nearest small town. This is indeed a bit difficult for people who rely on animal power to travel back and forth. This is also one of the reasons why people in Miyin Town rarely go out.

If it weren't for the beautiful scenery of Miyin Town and the many tourists from other places who come to visit every year, it would really be like a relatively closed little world.

With Colin and Lina's speed, a mere two hundred miles would not be enough for them to fly at their maximum speed for dozens of minutes. But since they had chosen to "integrate" into this world, they could only slowly let the inferior horse carry them forward.

I have to say that Hand is a pretty reliable guy. Although he has no experience of being outside, he heard various news from somewhere, which allowed him to figure out a map-like drawing. These days, he has been walking along the route on this drawing, and it matches what previous travelers said.

Colin and Lina were happy about it. They didn't have to worry about anything and just had to give orders.

Handene chose not to go straight to the center of the empire and head for the imperial capital, but to go to the nearest small town of Nord for supplies first, and then take the master and the lady to the northern important town of Blizzard City for a tour before discussing the subsequent itinerary.

Corinna followed Hand's suggestion. He thought there might be more opportunities in the small town. If there was no chance, he could go to Blizzard City and gain something.

After a journey of more than 200 miles, thanks to Hand's careful management (inferior horse), they finally arrived at the city of Nord after ten days.

According to Hand, there are nobles in Nord City, and it is the superior city-state of Miin Town. Although people from the city are rarely seen, the mayor still has to come here frequently to report on his work (and give gifts).

Colin had no impression of the mayor of Miin Town that Hand mentioned. He had only been there for less than three days, so how could he have the time to get to know a mortal?

After arriving at the Nord city gate, they paid some entrance fees at the city gate and the three of them entered the Nord city smoothly.

Although Nord City is a small city, it has everything it should have. Its architectural features are similar to many city-states Colin has seen, but it also has some special features.

Colin plans to live here for a month to see if he can get a noble status.

He did not tell Hand these. Although the "brainwashing" of Hand was quite successful in the past ten days, Hand tacitly believed that Colin and Lina were aristocrats.

"Hand, go rent a courtyard first. I think Nord City is nice. We can live here for a while."

"Master, how long will the lease last?"

"Let's rent it for a month first."

Hand drove the carriage and first took Colin and Lina to an inn to settle down, and then went out to find a place to rent.

In his opinion, the master really knew how to live. For just one month, he just stayed in a hotel and rented a yard. Maybe he could save some money, but he still needed to take care of his own food.

However, since he chose to join Colin, he must do his best to serve him in the early stage. Fortunately, he has learned some basic cooking skills in the past few years in the hotel, although he is not a professional chef, and can barely be said to be at an average level.

After contacting a local agent, I easily found a suitable yard. It was independent and quiet, but not too remote. There were patrolling soldiers not far from the streets, so the security environment was pretty good.

After paying one month's rent, Hand went to report to Colin. Colin arranged for him to buy some daily necessities. He and Lina stayed in the small hotel today and would move in tomorrow.

Hand originally thought that the master and the mistress would move directly to the new residence with him, but the master casually arranged some more work for him.

It seems that the job of serving others is not easy, but Hand has already chosen this path and must stick to it.

Relying on the knowledge he had heard, he finally managed to buy the necessary daily necessities, but it was already late, and Hand was exhausted and needed to go back to pack up his place. He had no choice but to grit his teeth and go back to work overtime, and he didn't go back to the hotel until evening.

The next morning, Hand forced himself to get up early and went to report to Colin. After Colin and Lina washed up and had breakfast, they drove the carriage to their new residence.

Colin was quite satisfied with the place Hand found. Although he only planned to live there for a short month, a good environment could still make people feel relaxed and happy.

In order to deal with some trivial matters on the road, Colin plans to teach Hand some basic fighting skills starting tomorrow, just like the little monkey Barrick. He asked Hand to buy an iron-wrapped wooden stick.

Teaching Hand some basic stick techniques is not only easy to get started with, but can also help him develop a certain "combat effectiveness" in a short period of time, while also boosting Hand's self-confidence.

Hande was very happy to see that his "dedication" over the past half month was finally recognized by his master. He even made a few special dishes that he was good at in the evening.

Colin and Lina had seen it all, but seeing Hand's special performance, they ate a few more bites of the special dishes.

The taste was just so-so, just barely acceptable, so Colin just praised it a few words.

The next morning, Hand was waiting in the yard, expecting Master Colin to teach him how to use a stick.

After Colin got up, he simply disassembled the stick techniques and taught them to Hand, asking him to practice on his own and test him every three days.

Although he taught him martial arts, there was still something else to do. Not only did Hand have to take care of all the affairs at home, but he also had to go to the city every day to inquire about the news and report the news he heard in the city to Colin one by one in the evening.

In less than five days, some people in the city knew that a strange "noble" had come to the city. His subordinates were generous and seemed interested in everything. They said that his master liked strange stories, and as long as it was something they had never heard of, they would get a reward.

In the following few days, all kinds of news came one after another, such as that the city's attendant had a special relationship with the daughter of a certain merchant, that the tax officer secretly withheld taxes paid by a certain merchant, that the descendants of nobles were penniless and could not survive, etc. There were too many and too diverse pieces of news.

Hand had no idea why Master Colin spent so much money on such useless information, but he had made remarkable achievements in the past few days. During several three-day tests, Master Colin had even taught him some powerful emergency strategies.

Hande worked even harder and made many "good friends". Even the third son of the eldest uncle of the nephew of the city lord's housekeeper became his brother.

This was an experience that Hand had not had in the past ten years in Minneapolis. He felt that following Master Colin out was the best thing he had ever done.
