Skretil's Ignorance Walker

"Ah...how could this happen..."

Lu Ren sat at home alone, with the scene of that day filling his mind.

She squandered all her savings. Although Fafuwei and others paid for Lu Ren at that time, Lu Ren still felt aggrieved about it.

Although I am indeed a bit extravagant in spending money, how could I not have so much money?

Moreover, he didn't know when the money Farania sent to him stopped being transferred, so Lu Ren made a special effort to check it out and found that the money had stopped being transferred more than four years ago.

Why is this happening? A country as big as this wouldn't suddenly go back on its word, right?

Lu Ren usually gave some pocket money to Fa Fuwei and the others, so he didn't consider the current situation at all, so he was very generous. After Lu Ren exhausted his savings, Fa Fuwei and the others each took out the money they had saved over the years.

After scraping together all the money, they now had a total of more than 60 gold coins in savings. If they were frugal, this money would be enough for them to live for a long time.

But as the saying goes, it is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality. Now that Lu Ren is asked to save money again, she really can't get used to it.

Therefore, since there was no source of income, why not create one? For this reason, Vera and the others went to the Adventurer's Guild to take on quests. As high-level adventurers, they could earn a lot by taking on high-level quests.

But Lu Ren didn't want to take the mission, because it would always remind her of the time when she was a beast of burden in her previous life.

If it really doesn't work, let them take on missions to earn money to support themselves. Lu Ren even thought about this, but she still had a conscience in her heart and didn't want to be a gigolo. Although she knew that at least Fafuwei would definitely agree, it was precisely because of this that Lu Ren had to support herself.

I used to think that I could finally have enough food and drink, but now I am facing the burden of life again, which makes Lu Ren sad. As a powerful adventurer, I have to consider my income and expenditure...

"Hey……"

After hesitating at home for a long time, Lu Ren finally decided to go to the Adventurer's Guild, so she called Fafuwei to go with her.

After arriving at the Adventurer's Guild, Lu Ren couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the adventurers sitting in the house to rest. Although most of the adventurers here were a group of cute mice, they were essentially no different from the adventurers in the human kingdom. Under their cute appearance, they were all rude and violent.

"Favvy, can you see if there are any simpler tasks..."

Lu Ren asked Favvy to choose the mission, while he waited on the side. However, during this time, Lu Ren heard some conversations of other adventurers.

"Have you heard? The fighting in Frannia is very fierce. I heard that even the capital, West Island City, fell."

"?"

Hearing this by chance, Lu Ren instantly perked up. She looked at the two adventurers who were sitting and chatting not far away, and walked up to them immediately.

"Can you tell me what you two were talking about?"

Under the effect of magic, the two mice didn't pay much attention to Lu Ren. They just followed Lu Ren's request and started talking about things that Lu Ren was interested in.

"I heard from merchants from the west that there is a war going on in Frannia right now, and it's very fierce..."

After the talk, Lu Ren also learned about the current situation of Frannia.

It is said that about five years ago, the old king of Frannia died and his eldest son inherited the throne. However, at this time, the United Kingdom of Albi, which is across the sea from Frannia, took advantage of the change of the old and new kings and launched a large-scale invasion.

Moreover, they were well prepared. In this invasion, the Albians united with the Kingdom of Is, which was originally an ally of Farania, and the Principality of Brege, which had always wanted to restore its country. In the first major battle between the two sides, the new king of Farania was captured alive because of a backstab by his ally, and Farania's main force was also lost in this battle.

Then according to the latest intelligence obtained by the two adventurers, the Albians have captured the city of West Island, and the entire Farania is almost about to be destroyed.

After hearing the news, Lu Ren was shocked. She couldn't believe it. She had heard about Frannia's power in so many places along the way. How could it be that the country was about to be destroyed? And if it was so critical, why wasn't Lu Ren summoned? She had an agreement with the King of Frannia, and even now Lu Ren's adventurer certificate still had the emblem of the Frannia royal family.

And it's unknown how long it has been since this news reached here. Maybe Frannia has been destroyed now. Lu Ren is very worried about the safety of Lina and the others. Verdi is the guardian of Frannia, he will definitely join this war, and in that case, Lina and the others will definitely join in.

But no matter what, after Lu Ren learned the news, he hurried home, gathered all the girls, and told them about it.

"So, what are you going to do?"

After listening to Lu Ren's words, Mia asked Lu Ren that she had no feelings for Frannia. If Frannia was really destroyed, Lu Ren could choose not to go back and just settle down here.

"I plan to rush over to check out the situation. Lina and the others are the first friends I met on this continent. I can't just abandon them like this."

In response to Mia's question, Lu Ren answered seriously, and Favre nodded after listening.

"Lord Lu Ren also has a manor property in Frannia. I don't know what's going on with it now..."

After hearing this, Lu Ren finally realized what was happening. Yes, if the West Island City was captured by the Albi people, would his manor also be affected?

When she thought of this, Lu Ren became even more worried. She didn't have much savings now. If the manor was gone, she would really have to work for the Adventurer's Guild or others in the future.

"What about you? Would you like to go to Frannia with me?"

But no matter how urgent it was, Lu Ren still had to seek everyone's opinions. She was not a dictator and could not make decisions on her own.

"Can't we not go? Aren't we supposed to be at war?"

Vera and Sunflower are somewhat reluctant to participate in this war. Their current life is pretty good, so why not just continue like this?

"I'm sorry, if you don't want to go, you can stay here, but I will still go back. This is what Lina and I agreed on."

After Lu Ren said this, there were no more objections at the scene. Since Lu Ren insisted on going back, they would naturally follow Lu Ren to Frannia.

"Since you said that, of course we will go too."

"Really? It's okay if you don't want to go. Don't force yourself."

"Okay, okay, stop talking and just tell us when to leave."

Seeing that everyone seemed unwilling to separate from him, Lu Ren was still a little moved. If they really didn't want to, Lu Ren would not force them. They could still stay here and continue to live a peaceful and leisurely life.

But they still chose to go with her. If the situation in the Kingdom of Frannia was really critical, Lu Ren might still participate in the war, even though this was a situation she was unwilling to face.

"Now that everything has been decided, I plan to leave tomorrow."
