Heroes Who Can't Fit into the Team and New Encounters

Kerr noticed that Lily was silent, and felt something was wrong, so he quickly opened up the chatterbox.

"...You really don't know anything about the land of chaos."

Lily showed a "I really can't do anything about you" expression.

For some reason, she didn't show any impatience, but was a little happy.

"Let me introduce you to this place in Otto City."

Lily started talking to Kerr.

No.40 Chapter Seven: The Elf in the Giant City

The land of chaos, as its name suggests, is a place where the regime is complex and changeable.A town with John as mayor today may become Smith tomorrow, and it may even be annexed by Tom next door and merged into a territory.

But in such a place where the power changes extremely quickly, there is one and only one king's capital, the Huanlan King's Capital.The entire region needs to make offerings to the capital, twice a year in spring and autumn, which is called "tributary".

However, when paying tribute, it is impossible to transport it directly from various places to the capital. This will not only cause problems in counting supplies, but also cause the flow of personnel in the capital to be too messy and inconvenient to manage.Therefore, all the materials in the land of chaos need to pass through four cities before being transported to the capital.

The four cities presenting the four corners of a rectangle are Hier, Tolton, Serin, and Otto.Among them, Otto City is in the lower left corner, which is a city managed by giants.

The giants live in the forest outside the city of Otto, and as long as someone violates the city rules, they will be beaten into meatloaf by the giants.

Hearing this, Kerr raised two core questions.

1. Why not resist?

2. Why do you still live here?

The setting sun was gradually setting to the west, and Lily looked at Kerr calmly.She got up from her seat and brought a full teapot from the kitchen to fill the empty cups.

The sound of some bugs in the gradually darkening distance made the darkened room a little lonely.

Lily was standing and Kerr was sitting.

Gently holding Kerr's face with both hands, the movements of her hands were like touching a cup full of hot tea, being careful and cautious.

Kerr looked up into Lily's eyes and saw a pool of indifferent stagnant water.

Due to the elf's short stature, Kerr's raised head almost touched Lily's chest.But I don't care about this time now.

"It's beautiful. Your eyes. You're a warrior. A warrior who marches forward."

Lily closed her eyes halfway, she fell into a certain state of sleep talking.

"Ahhh, bright eyes, people who are concerned, and people who are moving forward."

"Beef Noodles, I really envy you, having such a big brother."

The temperature is disappearing on Kerr's cheeks.

Not physically, but mentally.

Lily's hands were like hairy spider feet, cold and sticky.

"Li...Lily?"

There was doubt in Kerr's voice, and he reached out to protect the beef noodles behind him.Beef Noodles was also a little scared, lying on Kerr's shoulder, staring at Lily with vigilant eyes.

"Ah, that's great. That's the look in your eyes. Kerr, you must have never escaped in the past, and you seldom lost in battle. You have always had such a pure gaze. Even when you see people being tortured and killed by giants, you can still say, 'Would you like this? Words like 'resist'."

Lily stroked Kerr's face with her hand, as if she was treating the love of her life.

The expression on Kerr's face became stiff instantly.He didn't dare to look into Lily's eyes, and pouted to look at the floor beside him.

I?I rarely escape?

Am I seldom defeated?

Although he almost completely won in the last days of being a brave man, it was also accomplished with the help of his friend Cyrus.

I remembered the backs of the three in the same team.

Kerr felt a pang in his heart.

"Haha, it doesn't seem to be the case, Kerr. Even a soldier, does he have an unforgettable past?"

"It's normal. Leave me alone."

Kerr turned his head and stretched his hands away from Lily's hands, while the beef noodle stared at Lily.

"Bullying? Are you bullying Kerr?"

"No, no, how could I bully him?"

Lily answered the beef noodles with a smile, then pressed a switch on the wall, and a huge light came on.The bright yellow light swept away the darkness of dusk, and washed the mind and body of the three present.

It was a large cylindrical lamp hanging from the ceiling, and it looked radiant. I don't know what material and principle it was made of.

"It's really amazing. Did you make this light? Are all elf craftsmen as ingenious as you? This is much brighter than candles and campfires."

Kerr was amazed by this.

"I'm the only craftsman in elves, as far as I know. As a human being, you should know, right? Elves are a race that claims to be noble, and they won't do that kind of lowly work."

Lily made a bit more emphasis on the pronunciation of the word "low" but Kerr didn't notice it.

"Really? That's amazing, then you are the only elf craftsman in the world."

"Yes, I am the only elf craftsman. Any elf who says he wants to be a craftsman will be rejected by his own people, so I will be in a city managed by giants."

Lily smiled, she was talking about a matter of course.

"Repel you? Why?"

"Keer, let me answer your question just now! Why didn't you resist the giant and why did you still live here?"

Lily took a deep breath, a bit like a religious saint preparing to speak out the teachings of her order in one breath.

"Because I have no power, I don't resist. Because I can live by following the rules, it's much easier for a special molecule like me."

"Easy? I think those giants are quite dangerous."

Kerr remembered what happened in the morning.

"As long as there is no violence, no noise, and no trouble with the giants, nothing dangerous will happen."

"...I think it's dangerous to put your life in other people's hands."

"That's you. You should have killed many enemies with the sword that Chloe gave you, right? A craftsman like me who can only make things can't make a decent resistance."

"If you like it, this kind of life is actually very good. Just look at your house."

Most of the house is made of wood, with stone and metal used in some places.Lily's house is different from ordinary wooden houses, first of all in the selection of materials.

Those tall and strong trees outside, even if surrounded by dozens of people, they may not be able to hug them.It is not easy to simply cut down these trees and dry them.

The interior has bright lighting, and various small props add a lively atmosphere to the house.

For example, the reception room where Kerr is now.The tea table is made of birch wood, and the milky white color adds a lot of warm atmosphere to this red and yellow wood house.The sofa has been covered with leather, and the inside should be filled with soft stuffing to make the person sitting down feel more comfortable.Within sight, there is also a light-colored wooden shelf with many carved ore or wood carvings. Most of these wood carvings are images of animals. Kerr actually felt the breath of nature in the room.

Just now, when the beef noodles stared at a deer-shaped crystal sculpture, Kerr had the urge to buy it.

All the furnishings in the room do not contain the so-called expensive items such as gold, pictures, and embroidery, but they can also fully feel a touch of nobility.

Kerr, who often went to noble mansions to ask for military power, knew that he didn't need gold, silver and treasures. Cleanliness and beauty alone were a kind of pleasing class.

"After all, it is the house I live in. Since you are self-willed in life, you might as well be more self-willed and treat yourself better."

"No wonder it's so expensive to ask you to build things. Is there any reason for that?"

"Now you don't think my fee is too expensive."

"Forgive me on this point...Although I suddenly feel that it is quite easy to make money...But most of the small sculptures here are made by yourself, right? Since it doesn't cost much, please give me Make a discount."

Kerr has already realized that as long as he is not a brave man, it is quite easy to make money by relying on his fighting skills.Leaving aside the time of peace, the Kingdom of Ayers and the Land of Chaos are now in full swing, which is the best place for a powerful person like Kerr to play.

"What's the discount, come and help prepare dinner. It's time to eat. You two are here for a long-term trip, right? If you don't have a place to stay, you can stay with me anytime?"

"Okay, beef noodles, let's go to the forest to hunt a big guy to treat Miss Lily to dinner tonight, we can't bother Miss Lily too much."

"Oh! Delicious!"

Lily chuckled and stopped Kerr from moving.

"Can't it be like this? Because there are giants living in the forest, the animals around here are almost extinct."

"Eh?"

"So when you enter the city, you will find that it is very quiet here? That's because the large animals have long since disappeared."

"Eh--!"

No.40 Eight Chapters Peace of Mind

Really reassuring.

The heat that stings the skin slightly warms the whole body.

The heat is dense, and the body, mind and soul are completely relaxed.

I've had this feeling before.

It was a farmhouse in autumn, with smoke curling up from the kitchen, and the soft sunlight at dusk began to sing a sleeping song. Even the strongest peasants could not resist the temptation of rest and wine, and began to walk towards their homes with their farm tools on their shoulders.

The autumn produce began to bear fruit, and even poor farmers were not troubled by food shortages.

When I was still in my hometown, the sounds of livestock and animals could still be heard in the distance——

No.

Only the sound of water was quiet.

This is the bathroom in the home of Elf Craftsman Lily in the forest of Otto City.

It's more like a bath than a bathroom, a large bath that can accommodate at least ten people, and the heated hot water exudes fantastic heat in the stone-built bath.

Kerr's whole body was soaked in hot water, and the fatigue of his body was exhaled from his throat.

It is so comfortable.All the bones in his body were softened.

Bliss on earth.

After coming out of the small town of Ferges, Kerr never took a serious bath again.Not to mention taking a bath, I seldom even take a bath.

The reason is simple, because Kerr itself can use magic power to regulate body temperature, and can maintain the same temperature as an ice cube even in the summer.

But the beef noodles are worse. In summer, I often sweat profusely. If I don’t hold Kerr at night, I will be too hot to sleep. The sweat on Kerr’s body is basically beef noodles.
