Chapter 5 - Chapter 5

"The seeds of the Batir silk flower are ground into powder and are extremely weakly toxic. This can cause pain on the tongue, but the seeds themselves are sweet, a natural sweet and spicy condiment. It is said that the Migrud tribe likes sweets, and it seems to be true."

  Luo Qixi nodded.

  Alan grilled all the meat and placed it on the freshly washed leaves in front of Lokisi, stretched and stood up.

  The swordsman's uniform was still tattered, but he had taken it off just now and asked Loki to wash and dry it. Although it looked wrinkled now, it was much better than being covered in blood.

  "Fortunately, the lining was not stained with blood, so I still had some clothes to wear when I exchanged and washed clothes."

  However, Lokixi still kept a stern face and turned her back to Alan throughout the whole process of completing the series of operations. She also waited until Alan had put on his clothes before washing his hair.

  "What a pure love."

  'It's completely different from the one who would peek at Paul and Senis having sex in the middle of the night and sweat all over.'

  [The participation score of the Re:Zero (Jobless) event has been improved. ]

  [Current stage: Infancy, cumulative participation score: 25 points. ]

  [Instant task to be completed: Gain the favor of Rudeus. ]

  [Rudeus: Countdown: 87:02:37]

  Alan looked at the words appearing in front of him. The sudden bright light coming from the side passed through the gaps between the words and shone onto Loki's face. Her eyelashes trembled slightly and she looked up at Alan.

  It's dawn.

  The morning light leaped over the edge of the horizon, casting a hazy halo between the tree trunks, and enveloping the two of them.

  Loki's smile bloomed in the light.

  ——

  Because he was in the forest, Alan didn't even know that there was a road less than two kilometers to the south of his location.

  When Lokisi brought him out of the forest, he was even a little dazed.

  In the sunshine, there were occasional rotten fences on both sides of the road, and outside the fences was an endless expanse of uncultivated grassland with a few trees occasionally interspersed.

  Alan subconsciously took out the map and opened it to confirm the location.

  "Now it is."

  A small white hand stretched out from Alan's shoulder and pointed to the southwest direction of Fitoya Territory on the map. On the map, it was less than a fingernail away from the Buena Village marked with a red circle.

  Alan turned his head, only to be poked in the face by a strand of standing hair.

  Luo Qixi looked up at him.

  The lighting was bad last night and the height difference was not obvious, but now under the sunlight, it was obvious that Alan was 15 centimeters taller than Loki.

  This is a Yodel. er. God who does not need to be looked up to.

  God spoke.

  "With your physical condition, if you hurry, you should be able to reach the village tonight. Sorry for delaying your trip."

  Alan sighed and twisted his sore wrist helplessly.

  Lokixi's body was covered with large and small pieces of barbecue wrapped in leaves. In her hand, she also had a can of Batir silk flower seed powder given to her by Alan.

  The more delicious parts of a wild boar, such as its thigh, tenderloin, and ribs, were all hung on Lokixi.

  It was baked, of course, and it took Alan a full hour.

  "How could you eat so much? Wouldn't it taste bad if it were cold? You could just kill it and eat it right away."

  Loki shook her head, stared down at the scabbard on Allen's waist and muttered.

  "My knife skills are not good enough. I can't cut it into thin slices like yours. Now, if I'm hungry, I can use fire magic to reheat it. Thank you for grilling the meat for me and giving me the seasoning."

  "Too."

  There was a strange silence between the two.

  After a moment, Alan looked up at the sky.

  "That's all. I have to continue on my way to the village."

  But who knew that Luo Qixi suddenly looked up and interrupted him.

  "Perhaps you can travel with me. We are going to seek refuge in the countryside anyway. Wouldn't it be easier to hide your whereabouts if you run away directly from the Kingdom of Asura? And with your skills, you can definitely become an independent adventurer. After a year, when you have made some name for yourself, you can naturally return to the Kingdom of Asura in glory."

  Alan was startled and looked at Luo Qixi.

  Luo Qixi's face flushed a little, but it was obvious that she was making the suggestion seriously.

  "Logically speaking, her judgment is correct. In the world of Jobless, there are many people who run away from home at the age of ten to experience life on their own."

  'The closest one is this tough guy in front of me. He ran away to be an adventurer without telling his family at the age of fourteen and never came back. His old father and mother didn't even know whether he was alive or dead. The slightly farther one is Paul Zhixiang's brother. He graduated from the childhood at the age of ten. In his teens, he had already unlocked the multiplayer achievement among the Asura nobles in the aristocratic school. As a result, he never expected that he would be reported to his home by his victim. He had a big quarrel with his father and left without saying goodbye, and then.'

  "Eh? Wait, this is not the plot. Luo Qixi also speculated that I'm all nobles of the Asura Kingdom, and we all have the same surname."

  "It shouldn't come to this, I'm a serious person after all."

  "By that time, that girl will have given up on you. I guess by the time you come back from your travels, she might have found a new lover, and her family will probably let you go."

  "?"

  The serious man Allen was stunned, looking at the talking Lokixi.

  He instantly broke through the defense and counterattacked.

  "I think you just want to kidnap a free cook! Even if you are a god, you can't kidnap child laborers!"

  "!no!"

  Luo Qixi puffed up the corners of her mouth.

  "Although you don't look very old, you should be in your teens. How can you call yourself a child laborer?"

  Alan blinked.

  "I'm only nine."

  Luo Qixi was stunned and stared at Allen with wide eyes.

  "Nine"

  Alan looked at Loki's dazed look, frowned and fell into thought.

  '.Don't argue yet, this butterfly effect is coming too fast. I just met the first important role, and in just one night, I received an exciting offer from God. Let's not talk about whether it will affect the development of the future plot. If this continues, my rating will be a bit dangerous.'

  Just when he was thinking about how to politely reject Luo Qixi, the latter spoke first.

  "Nine years old is still too young. I think you can stay out of the spotlight and go to the Water God School in Asura Capital to learn swordsmanship for two years before going out to gain experience. Um. You are a noble, so at that age, shouldn't you gradually inherit the family business?"

  Loki lowered her eyes.

  "Maybe after this occasional meeting, we will never see each other again. Rudy, the same goes for you."

  "Yes."

  Loki looked up.

  In the sunshine, Alan smiled brightly.

  "It's not just me who will see it, but Rudy as well."

  Luo Qixi nodded blankly.

  "Well, it's getting late. I should leave, otherwise I might not be able to get to the village before night."

  ".good."

  Alan turned around, and after taking a few steps, he suddenly turned his head to look at Luo Qixi.

  "After all, we will meet each other everywhere in life."

  He turned his back to Loki and waved indifferently.

  Then he quickly ran away along the road.

  She didn't know if it was an illusion, but Luo Qixi felt that his back seemed to be fleeing in panic.

  She watched Alan's figure gradually become smaller, then turned around and walked in the opposite direction of Alan.

  "..Life is a place where we don't meet each other..?"

  Luo Qixi smiled and walked away.

  (End of this chapter)

Chapter 8 The Butterfly Effect Begins, A Real Man Who Counts Seconds

  Alan fled for several kilometers in panic before he stopped and looked back.

  At this moment, Luo Qixi turned her head and looked back.

  The two looked at each other, then turned around and continued on their way.

  The road is not smooth.

  Alan had just gone down a slope, and the slope in the middle blocked their sight from each other.

  To be precise, if it weren't for this Poe Allen, he would still be on the run.

  "Haha. It's so dangerous. Is this God's invitation? Fortunately, I ran fast. Looking at Luo Qixi's face, I really want to agree to her immediately. Luo Qixi has been traveling all the way in the Asura Kingdom and has been alone for so many years. Even though she is working hard to become a water god-level magician, after seeing my skills, I'm afraid she subconsciously wants to find a like-minded adventurer partner."

  "Whether it was helping her apprentice who had been away for several years to search for his relatives around the world after the Great Transfer, or pretending to be indifferent when she met her parents again, and then burst into tears after learning about her parents' attitude, all of these proved that Luo Qixi was a person who cared about intimate relationships. It was just that the experience of being discriminated against for so many years led her to pretend to be indifferent to protect herself."

  Alan sighed.

  "The butterfly effect is beginning to show. But I still need to push forward the major events according to the plot of the novel. I can't lose the pseudo-future vision. I'm sorry, Luo Qixi, please wait a little longer. It's not the right time yet."

  As he spoke, Alan slowly drew his sword. The moment the tip of the sword left the sheath, the handle left his hand, and the blade rotated around the handle at the stroke of his wrist, like a fluttering butterfly.

  When Allen grabbed the handle of the knife again, the blade had already been grasped by him in his backhand, and the blade was flashing with a cold light and was placed across Allen's body.

  The tip of the knife was hanging just one centimeter above the skin on the inside of my left arm.

  Alan looked down at the tip of the knife, raised his brows, and licked his lips.

  Then poke gently.

  The blade penetrated the skin without any hesitation, and blood slowly seeped out along the blade.

  Alan did not pull the knife out of the wound, but just frowned and muttered to himself.

  "Healing magic pattern, activate."

  As soon as he finished speaking, he felt his magic power rushing towards the Dragon Saint Fighting Qi embryonic core in his abdomen like a stream of water, "climbing" on the tree-shaped magic patterns, and the trees emitted a dense green light.

  Then the magic power in his body seemed to be dyed, and was coated with a green halo. The halo followed the magic power and instantly flowed to his arms.

  The wound healed, the broken skin wrapped around the tip of the knife, and the bleeding stopped.

  Alan stared at the wound, counted to nine silently, and quickly pulled out the blade.

  It was visible to the naked eye that the wounds immediately stuck together and the blood didn't have time to flow out.

  "Healing magic pattern, close."

  Alan gently touched the hairs at the wound with the tip of the knife. There was only a shallow white mark there. In the time it took him to blink, the white mark turned into dandruff and was blown away by the wind, and the skin underneath seemed to be reborn.

  He smiled with satisfaction.

  "The time it takes to take effect is the same as the time it takes for magic power to flow through the body. Not bad, it's very fast. It can also remain effective at any time during combat, which is equivalent to a healing spell without chanting. This is too powerful. The system is really a conscientious capitalist. 555."

  "The healing effect is no different from that of an intermediate healing technique."

  "Consumed mana, activation duration is 10 seconds, loss."

  Alan felt his own magical state and his face instantly turned ugly.

  ".About 1/10, that's too much. The fixed mana consumption required for the internal circulation of my fighting spirit is only one-fifth of it all year round. My current full mana is only 4/5. Damn, the mana consumed by this 10-second healing spell will take me almost a hundred days to recover."

  Allen's mana consumption is the same as Orstead's, and his recovery rate is 1000:1.

  In other words, the magic power that an ordinary person can fully recover with one full sleep would require him to sleep a thousand times to do so. That's why the system calls this growth path the Swordsman's Path, because it basically eliminates the possibility of Alan firing a water cannon from time to time in between swinging his sword.

  The other path of a magician is basically to copy Rudeus' growth trajectory. The body cannot be entangled with fighting spirit, and one must take the path of a close combat wizard who uses magic armor.

  It is worth mentioning that the systems are copied based on the templates of the characters that have appeared in Re:Zero - Job. The Path of the Swordsman is taken from Orsted, and the Path of the Magician is taken from Laplace. It is foreseeable that by completing both paths, one can become a complete copy of these two people.

  Of course, this will take a very long time, and it will most likely not be achieved unless the life span limit is broken.
