*****In a room on the third floor of a high-end hotel in Lianhai City****
While Zhang Youji and his party were riding a high-end carriage and driving on the bridge leading to Lianhai, their perspective turned to [Cuiyin].
[Cuiyin], who once had a relationship with Zhang Youji in the kingdom of elves, experienced a brief period of chaos after parting ways with Zhang Youji and his group because of the [return gift] sent by the group at that time. kind of things.
She also had a personal relationship with one of the [Elf] members in her adventure group. She helped the [Elf] member who knew the [Elf King] to solve the problem together in the Elf City after Zhang Youji left. Except for the [Elf] team member, no one knew the [details]. They were only told that they were the Elf Knights who assisted the Elf King. They completed the task of wiping out certain Elf nobles and received the reward.
The [Wind Girl] adventure group, with Cuiyin as the leader, spent a day simply training in the Elf City, and after obtaining an additional [Mount] that was suitable for their number and the Kingdom of Elf, they left the Elf. country, and embarked on a journey to return to the Theocracy. On the way, he also defeated a dangerous monster [Split Insect King] that he encountered by chance on the road, disintegrated it, and sold the materials and other materials to adventurers in the kingdom. After the guild.
Cuiyin continued to lead her adventure group and experienced another journey. Before Zhang Youji and the heroes, they came to the city of Lanyuan, where they prepared to take a regular ship back to the Theocracy, but unfortunately However, they did not catch the scheduled ship from the Islamic State, and the time of the next scheduled ship has not yet been determined.
Therefore, Cuiyin and his party decided to go to the sea-connected city connected to Lanyuan to kill time on vacation while waiting for the next scheduled ship. However, the scheduled ship that departed before was blocked due to the storm at sea. relationship, being forced to return midway, and the fact that the two team members who returned to Lanyuan from Lianhai to inquire about the next scheduled ship were forcibly taken away by Ye Lianmeng are all things that are currently killing time leisurely in the city of Lianhai. , something that the uninformed Cuiyin and the others did not expect.
[How slow, why haven’t the two people who inquired about the regular ship come back yet? ···And, what’s more, everyone actually left me alone again and went to wander around the streets. 】
In the room on the third floor of the hotel, she was wearing simple light green clothes and skirt, with light green hair and eyes, and although her appearance was very beautiful, there was still some difference compared with Valkyrie and the others. There was a green light sword and a pure white dagger hanging on his belt respectively, but because he was in a hotel room, Cuiyin was not wearing light armor or leg armor. At this moment, he was talking to himself Complaining eloquently about the behavior of her teammates.
[Hey, should we expand the number of people in the adventure group after returning to the Theocracy? After all, our total number of people has remained unchanged from the beginning to now. Although everyone is very trustworthy at critical moments, in normal times, everyone always throws some troublesome things to me, and then... They acted independently and leisurely did what they wanted to do. The two people who went to inquire about the news and haven't come back yet must have been attracted by something on the way, right? ···Sigh, I really hope that a hard-working person can join our adventure group... 】
When Cuiyin sat on the chair in front of the dressing cabinet by the bed and finished complaining about her teammates, she fell silent for a while, then flew directly to the bed in the room, and said some frustrating words helplessly. , buried his face on the pillow, because he was bored because he was left alone, and wanted to just sleep like that, and started to turn over.
After noticing the pure white dagger hanging on her waist among the two swords that had not yet been taken off, Cuiyin sat up and took the pure white dagger from her waist together with the exquisite While taking off the scabbard, he thought about Zhang Youji and his group who had met once in the Elf City.
[Claims to be just an ordinary summoner, but turns out to be able to easily take out more than 30 valuable crystal coins, and even allows high-level humanoid summoned beasts to give away epic-level, priceless weapons at will, Zhang Youji , who exactly is he? Sigh, there seems to be no use in talking about this now... However, speaking of the Summoner, although I don’t know his name, I heard rumors about the Blue Summoner in the Labyrinth on the way here. , is Zhang Youji a related person? ······Hmm, he doesn’t feel like someone who knows that kind of dangerous person. 】
While Cuiyin was recalling things about Zhang Youji, she remembered what Zhang Youji had said recently about the things she had heard in the kingdom recently, and ordered the existences in various legends and myths, and easily ravaged 25 Wan's kingdom's elite military, and even the Demon King and his forces, easily repelled the new heretical forces, some bad rumors about the Blue Summoner of the Labyrinth, those rumors he inadvertently heard, and Zhang Youji's affairs were connected in series, but Cuiyin quickly gave up this hypothesis.
Because Cuiyin really couldn't associate her impression of Zhang Youji with that rumor, even though she spent very little time with Zhang Youji, and she also had many questions about Zhang Youji's affairs.
However, Cuiyin recalled Zhang Youji in her impression, whose personality was a bit out of line, but generally speaking, he was a kind person, at least not a very evil person, and thought that he was the same as [what she heard] According to the rumors, the summoner in the rumors has nothing to do with the summoner who is greedy for women, likes to show off his power, and is very proud.
By the way, the moment the king, Liya, Jieli, and some important figures in the kingdom heard about those [rumors], they immediately set out to clarify them and ordered rectification and banning of the rumors. spread, but in a sense it seems to have had some counter-effects, causing those [rumors] to spread secretly. Although things like clarification also have a certain effect, [now] people in the kingdom have no regard for Zhang Youji. In the evaluation, apart from "Beyond the Starting Town", there are still more "negative" words.
In addition, as for Zhang Youji himself, regarding those [rumors] and the like, although after the Demon King incident, I heard Ye Lianmeng in the maze say that it was Yun Guangyi, Hua Yalin, and Su Shan who said it, But soon, Zhang Youji completely forgot about this matter because of Ye Lianmeng and her strange behavior in the maze, and never thought of it again.
[·······Oh, I don’t want to think about it anymore. Even now, the two people who inquired about the scheduled ship have not come back. Rather than waiting for someone in the room all the time, it is better to go to the first floor of the hotel. , leave a message on the message board, and then go shopping on the street. 】
When Cuiyin shook her head, gave up thinking about Zhang Youji and changed her mind, and hung the pure white dagger in her hand back on her waist, Cuiyin, who had been waiting in the room for several hours, got off the job. No longer waiting for anyone, she decided to go out on the street to kill time. She started walking to the dressing cabinet next to the bed, and using the paper and pen placed on the cabinet, she wrote a message to her teammates.
Soon after, Cuiyin opened the door and walked out of the room she was in after writing the message, and came to the first floor of the hotel. On the only way to the guest room area, there was a piece hanging on the wall that was very conspicuous, and there was a dedicated person. After posting her message on the guard's message board.
Just when Cuiyin was about to walk out of the hotel and go to the street to kill time, she suddenly heard someone in the hotel who looked like a young aristocrat shouting excitedly about vacation and other topics, and then And because I saw the young noble being lectured sternly but politely by the maid who accompanied him, I couldn't help but recall some things and smiled helplessly.
[Haha, looking back now, the reason why I happened to meet Zhang Youji in the city of elves was because some things were left behind by everyone. After dealing with those things, when I was shopping, I met Zhang Youji by chance for some unknown reason. Zhang Youji, who was shouting meaningless words on the street, disturbing the public and causing trouble to others, and lost his way,...it will definitely not be the same way this time..., it is probably impossible, even if he has mold. I'm lucky, I won't meet him here again in that way. Oh, really, how should I return such a gift in return for causing trouble to others? 】
When Cuiyin looked at the young nobleman with a helpless smile, recalled the scene when she first met Zhang Youji, and silently followed her intuition and muttered to herself for a while, Cuiyin revealed that she was even worse than before. With a helpless smile, he touched the pure white dagger hanging on his waist that had been used as a practical weapon. At the same time, he thought of the 30 or so pieces in the magic tool bag. Even if he bought a small castle, it would be enough. There are still remaining crystal coins, as well as the pure black war whip that one of her teammates is temporarily missing, because she doesn’t know what to do with these [exaggerated return gifts] that Zhang Youji and his party received at that time, and some I walked out of the hotel with a headache.
In this way, Cuiyin, who has [bad luck], started walking in this city connected to the sea, or in other words, like a resort island. She had no special goal and no place she wanted to go. , Cuiyin just followed the road and took steps in a relaxed mood.
