Skretil's Ignorance Walker

Since Savion's current whereabouts are unknown, in order to prevent more disasters from happening, all C-level adventurers and seven guardian knights in the city were sent out to search outside the city.

There are magic circles set up by Lu Ren throughout the city, so there is no need to worry about it sneaking into the city again for the time being, but it is not that easy to find.

In a forest outside the city, Lu Ren, Haili and a female C-level adventurer named Mei were looking for traces of Savion.

Lu Ren felt that calling her Mei was a bit strange, so she called others Xiaomei, which seemed more in line with her habits.

The three of them searched in the forest for a long time, but found nothing except some small animals and some low-level monsters. I also passed by other search teams on the way, but no matter who they were, there was no news at all.

"Do you think that guy has left the Grand Duchy of Peel?"

After a fruitless search, Mei said that in her opinion, she didn't know when Savion would be found if this continued.

"That guy's in very bad shape, he shouldn't be able to run far."

Lu Ren replied that she had observed Savion's condition. After self-decomposition, its body almost collapsed, and when it escaped, it lost its life and used magic wantonly. At present, can it continue to maintain its existence in the mortal world? It’s hard to say.

Hailey watched the conversation between the two without saying a word. She looked deep into the forest, seeming to miss something.

"Hailey?"

Seeing that Haili remained silent, Lu Ren called to Haili, and the latter came back to his senses and looked at Lu Ren in confusion.

"Why... be careful."

The three of them were walking and chatting. It was inevitable that they would overlook some obstacles in the forest. After Lu Ren stopped Haili, he did not focus on perception, so she accidentally tripped over a vine under her feet.

Fortunately, Haili found out in time and helped Lu Ren to prevent her from falling into the mud.

"I'm sorry, Haley, for making you laugh."

Lu Ren almost tripped over and now felt a little embarrassed. Where did the vines come from around here?

"It's okay, there are some canopy trees nearby, and their vines will extend to a long distance, so please be careful where you step."

"Thank you for the reminder. You are very familiar with this area."

Lu Ren thanked Haili, and then she said that Haili seemed to be very familiar with this place. After hearing Lu Ren's words, Haili's face showed a nostalgic expression.

“My sister and I used to live around here.”

"Eh? Is it nearby? It's not all forests here, and there are no villages nearby."

Mei immediately said that as an adventurer, Mei often goes in and out of the forest. She has never heard of anyone living nearby.

"That happened when I was a child, and my sister and I are the only two people living here. It's not far in front. The house should still be there. Do you want to go and take a look?"

The two agreed to Hailey's proposal. Maybe Savion is hiding in that house at this time? Anyway, you won’t suffer any loss if you go and take a look.

Following Hailey's leadership, the three of them fought their way through obstacles and finally discovered a small clearing deep in the forest. In the center of the clearing stood a dilapidated old house.

No one has lived here for a long time, the weeds on the ground have exceeded ten centimeters, and the dilapidated old house is even covered with vines.

“I didn’t expect people to have lived here.”

Mei lamented that she had never been so deep into this forest before, and she would not have dared to come if it were not for the A-level adventurers with her.

Hailey walked to the door of the old wooden house with a nostalgic look on her face. She gently touched the long-corroded door. She grew up here and then went to a wider world. When she came back here today, she only missed that person in her heart.

Lu Ren used magic perception to check the surroundings. After confirming that there were no large living creatures, she felt relieved. It seemed that Savion was not hiding here either.

However, Lu Ren discovered that outside the yard of the wooden house, there were two small mounds of soil and two stone tablets standing beside them. They seemed to be two tombs buried together.

"that is……"

Lu Ren pointed to Haili the grave she found, and the latter walked forward and knelt down in front of the grave.

"This is the grave of my sister, who has now left this mortal world."

"That's right, sorry."

"Sister, I'm here to see you." Haili devoutly crossed her hands and raised them in front of her chest, just like a devout believer praying to the gods she believed in. After a while, under the gazes of Lu Ren and Mei , she slowly stood up again.

"Okay, there's nothing to see here, let's continue searching for Savion."

Facing Hailey's proposal, the two nodded in agreement, so after resting here for a while, the three set out again to look for Savion.

Because Mei was standing far away just now, Lu Ren could not see her eyes. So they didn't know that the word "Strange Love" was engraved on the tombstone of the grave where Hailey worshiped.

The search continued for several days, but no one found anything. During this period, Lu Ren also took the time to look for places to stay, but none of these hotels had been built yet, so she could only reluctantly continue to rent Gina's house at a high price. Lu Ren vowed to move out as soon as she found a place to live. She didn't want to live with Gina for a moment now.

Mia was still unconscious, and Lu Ren was also very surprised. Logically speaking, she should be awake, but why could she sleep so well.

Because of the continuous search, some adventurers also began to feel resistant. Faced with this situation, the guild and the Grand Duke had to increase the rewards for the adventurers, or give them a holiday.

Facing the pressure from the Grand Duke, Hailey and several other guardian knights searched for Savion's whereabouts day and night, but to no avail.

"Well, I applied to the guild for a few days' leave, so starting from today I won't go on missions with you."

One morning, when Lu Ren and Haili came to meet Mei, Mei said this.

"That's it. Then you should have a good rest. You have worked hard these past few days."

Even though she was reluctant, Hailey couldn't stop him. She could only let the other party have a good rest and try to come back as soon as possible.

"Xiaomei, does your family live here? This is a good opportunity to make money."

Lu Ren also wanted to rest for a few days. This continuous search gave Lu Ren a feeling of going to work, but everything happened because of herself, so Lu Ren was too embarrassed to take a rest. She just wanted to hurry up now. Grab Savion and then rest for a while.

"No need. My home is in a small village in the northeast. I have been out for a while. I have to go back and see my brother."

Many adventurers are taking advantage of this opportunity to work overtime to make money, and few will take a break. But Mei is not one of them. Compared with making money, her brother is more important.

"Hey, Xiaomei, do you like your brother very much?"

Faced with Lu Ren's teasing, Mei suddenly blushed.

"Of course I do. Both of our parents died when we were young. It was my brother who worked hard to bring me up. Yesterday I received a letter from him saying that he had married a wife, so I wanted to go back and have a look and wish them well. "

"That's it."

Lu Ren originally just wanted to tease Mei, but who knew that the little girl couldn't stop talking about her brother.

"My brother is very honest. He was bullied a lot when he was a child, so I worry about what if a bad woman comes to deceive him. My brother is also kind. As long as you pretend to be pitiful in front of him, he will not doubt others. of."

"ok, ok, I got it."

Lu Ren smiled bitterly and waved his hand to Mei to calm down. He was honest and kind and had grown up pulling his sister. This reminded Lu Ren of a poor man selling sesame seeds.

"How long will it take you to go back?"

Seeing that Mei couldn't stop talking, Lu Ren could only change the topic, but this made Haili waiting for her very anxious.

"It will take about a day or two. The village where my brother and I live is just downstream of the river outside the city."

"That's it..."

Lu Ren originally just chimed in casually, but she suddenly thought of something.

The current search is slowly spreading from the outskirts of the city, and there seems to be a river where Bleich and the others went to hunt Savion.

Maybe Savion had already escaped along the river, and according to Lu Ren's observation these days, there was only that river outside the city of Port Pier.

"Xiaomei, can I go back with you?"

Lu Ren, thinking of some not-so-good things, decided to go back with Mei, maybe they would find something.

"Eh? Wait, shouldn't you come with me to find Savion?"

Haili on the side was anxious, why do you even want to run away now?

"There was a river nearby when Bleich and the others were chasing Savion, and that was the only river nearby, right?"

After hearing Lu Ren's words, the two of them reacted instantly.

"You're saying Savion might have escaped down the river and might now be in May's village?"

Mei became anxious after hearing this. She became even more panicked when she thought about the new wife mentioned in her brother's letter. If it was really Savion, wouldn't her own brother be in danger?

Without further ado, Mei hurriedly took Lu Ren to the village where she lived, while Haili could only watch the two of them leave because she still had the responsibility of guarding the knights.
