'Now, it's time to learn the skill book I got from lady Lexie.'
He retrieved the Mountain Crushing Slash skill book from his space ring because he needed to touch the book to activate his cheat system.
[Ding! Host has discovered the Mountain Crushing Slash skill book. Do you want to learn it.]
'Yes.'
Right after he answered it, memories related to the Mountain Crushing Slash skill appeared in his mind, and he felt as if he had mastered the Mountain Crushing Slash skill for a long time.
Mountain Crushing Slash was Sky class high-level skill.
Its power was the same as the power of the fourth form of the Moon Sword secret technique.
Ren did not try the skill immediately because he was in the hotel, not in the forest or the training ground.
'Good! It's time to absorb the beast core I got from killing the Yin-Yang Tiger.'
He put on clothes and sat in a lotus position.
After absorbing the 3-star beast core, he decided to sleep because he had nothing to do anymore.
As Ren was in the dream world, Lexie's house was filled with happy chatter and laughter.
Luna finally recovered from the illness she had suffered from for years, so happiness trembled inside of them.
"Young Miss, you no longer need to drink bitter medicine now."
"You can also stroll around the city every day now."
"Young Miss, I'm happy for you."
"Young Miss, how about we take a walk around the city tomorrow?"
"I agree. We can buy a lot of things, too."
"Now that you have fully recovered, you can eat all things you want, Young Miss."
"That's right, Young Miss. We will buy everything you want."
Lexie's subordinates expressed their happiness by inviting her to stroll around the city with them.
Since she was six, Luna rarely left the house and could not eat anything she wanted, so they wanted to celebrate her recovery by taking her for a walk around town and buying her all the things she wanted.
"Take a walk around the city? Buy all the things I want?" Luna's eyes shone brightly. "Auntie Lexie, can I stroll around the city with big sisters tomorrow?"
"Yes." Lexie nodded her head.
"Yay!" Luna said happily. "Big sisters, let's take a walk around the city and buy a lot of things tomorrow."
"Yay!" Lexie's subordinates wore happy faces too.
Lexie's lips curled up into a smile as she saw Luna's happy face.
'Thank you, Ren.'
She thanked him because he helped her get the Purple Moon flower.

The following day at 07:00 pm, Ren left the hotel to enjoy the Lanterns Festival.
A soft smile spread across his face as he strolled around the city. Even though he was alone, he still felt a glimmer of happiness because the atmosphere was lively.
'There are many awakeners in this Lanterns Festival. Well, I think it's normal because they are human too.'
The Nightshire city was bustling with activities.
The scent of roasting meat and sweet pastries filled the air, and children ran through the streets while holding Tanghulu.
The restaurants, tea shops, and stalls were buzzed with happy conversation and laughter.
At that moment, there was no difference between travelers and locals or between awakeners and non-awakeners because all of them enjoyed the festival very much.
Ren, who was seeing the busy street, stopped his footsteps.
'Festival is still a festival. No matter where it is, it's still visited by many people and can make everyone happy.'
His face blossomed into a smile as he saw children running through the street with happy faces.
"Hey, look at that young man! Don't you think he is so handsome?"
"Whoa! I've seen many men in my life, but this is my first time seeing a man as attractive as him."
"What a fine young man!"
"How can there be a human as perfect as him? Is he an angel?"
"Yes. I think he is an angel who descended from the highest heaven."
"Do you think he has a lover?"
"I don't think so. Otherwise, he won't be alone right now."
"Yes. He must be single because he is alone."
"Hey, should we try our luck?"
"Try our luck? Do you mean try talking to him?"
"Yes. Maybe tonight is our lucky night."
"That's a good idea!"
"Yes. That's an amazing idea because it's not every day we get to meet a man as attractive as him."
"You are right. We should not let this opportunity slip away."
"Let's go."
"Un."
All the women who saw Ren were instantly charmed by his handsome face.
Some of them even wanted to try their luck because Ren was so attractive, to the point that they could not control their desires.
However, the goddess of luck was not on their side because Luna and Lexie caught sight of him when they were about to hit on him.
"Hmm? Auntie Lexie, look! It's big brother." Luna said as she pointed her right index finger at Ren.
Lexie turned to where Luna was pointing.
'Ren?'
She had guessed that he would come to the Lanterns Festival, but she did not expect them to meet him so quickly like that.
"Let's approach big brother and enjoy the festival with him." without waiting for Lexie's response, Luna ran toward Ren with a happy face. "Big brother…"
"Luna, don't run. It's dangerous." Lexie followed Luna from behind.
Ren turned around when he heard a familiar voice.
'It's Luna's voice.'
His face broke into a smile when he saw Luna.
"Big brother Ren…" Luna ran as she spread her arms widely.
Ren squatted down before finally smiling softly and carrying her.
"Ren…" Lexie greeted him when he carried Luna.
"Lady Lexie, I did not expect us to meet in this place." Ren said as he smiled.
Lexie did not say anything and only smiled at him.
"Big brother, are you alone?" Luna inquired.
"Yes." He responded.
"Then how about we enjoy the festival together?" Luna threw another question at him.
Ren did not answer her question immediately and turned his head toward Lexie, asking a question through his eyes whether he should agree or not.
Even though Ren did not say anything, Lexie could understand it.
'Yes. Let's enjoy this festival together.'
She answered his question by nodding her head.
Ren returned his attention to Luna before finally speaking, "Sure. Let's enjoy the Lanterns Festival together."
"Yay!" Luna said happily.
The women who wanted to hit on Ren stopped their footsteps and changed their minds instantly.
Lexie was beautiful and the head of the Cardenas family, one of the four major families in Nightshire City.
She was even a powerful awakener, so they knew they could not compete with her because the difference between them was like heaven and earth.
"Sigh. It seems like our luck is not good."
"Well, it can't be helped."
"Then let's just enjoy the festival together."
"Yes. Let's just enjoy the festival together. Maybe we will find another handsome man later."
"I hope so."
"Haha."
Even though they could not seduce Ren, they were still happy because they were at the lantern festival.
