I have a city in another world

Chapter 6877 Who is the idiot?

The variety of delicious foods is so tempting that one can't wait to try them.

Even the elves were drawn to the abundant food on the table. While not lavish, it was a feast of sincerity, with fresh fruits and vegetables, roasted meats, and mead filtered with lemongrass—a truly rare rural delight.

At the village chief's invitation, a group of elves came to the table and sat on the weathered wooden chairs.

Yves and the elf Ashe sat on either side, leaving the best chair in the middle.

The village chief and the other villagers thought the chair was empty, but then they saw the female elf lower her head and make a gesture of communication.

The monk, dressed in black robes, also respectfully placed the exquisite wine pot on the table in front of the empty chair.

Such unusual behavior left the villagers puzzled, wondering what was going on.
Why would these important people leave that chair empty?

A woman watching from a distance couldn't help but voice her doubts, expressing her thoughts.

The other villagers echoed this sentiment, thinking it was some strange custom.

"There's clearly an older boy sitting on that chair, why do you say there's no one there?"

The child, with a tender voice, couldn't help but ask a question, pointing out the error in the adult's words.

"What nonsense are you talking about..."

The child who spoke was the same little guy who had been scolded earlier, and he kept claiming that there was an older brother in the group.

When the villagers saw that the boy was still incorrigible, they angrily raised their hands to slap him again.

I'm going to teach this kid a lesson so he won't continue spouting nonsense and anger the group of important people in front of him.

At that moment, everyone saw a jeweled wine glass float up into the air, and the wine inside vanished instantly.

The various kinds of food placed on the table also floated up one after another.

“Uh, this is…”

The villagers were stunned, and at that moment they were finally able to confirm that there was indeed an invisible person sitting in the chair.

"They're clearly sitting right there, can't you see them?"

The child, feeling wronged, couldn't help but shout loudly. The facts were right in front of him, so why did those adults say he was lying?
At that moment, the villagers felt a sense of panic and embarrassment, and it turned out that the child had not lied.

There is indeed a mysterious person whom children can see, monks can see, but villagers cannot see.

"I see, you can't see it, you're all a bunch of idiots!"

The child, who was standing to the side, suddenly shouted loudly, his face showing a look of sudden realization.

The adults looked embarrassed. Although they knew it was just childish nonsense, they also felt it made a lot of sense.

If there is no problem, why can others see it, but they can't see any trace of it even with their eyes wide open?

In a remote village, there is an old proverb that goes: a fool will not see many things.

The true meaning of this sentence is that some people are short-sighted and only focus on immediate gains, and are destined not to achieve much.

The villagers couldn't grasp the deeper meaning; after hearing the saying, they only used its literal meaning when quoting it.

In this moment, the child felt it was very appropriate to use it to evaluate the current situation.

At this moment, a group of villagers fell into deep self-doubt, feeling that they might really be stupid.

Knowing such a cruel truth in front of a monk is indeed a very painful thing.

The villagers didn't notice that the monk in the black robe was also keeping a tight face to prevent himself from losing his composure.

If being blind is considered foolish, then I am the biggest fool, since the villagers are just ordinary people, while he is a true cultivator.

He couldn't see Tang Zhen either, and despite using various methods to investigate, he couldn't sense any trace of his presence. Yves firmly believed this wasn't stupidity, but rather due to some special reason.

Seeing the villagers' dejected state, Yves decided to clear his name so that those foolish elves wouldn't believe the story.

After all, the elves knew that he couldn't see Tang Zhen, and if they believed this, they would inevitably look down on him.

The thoughts of these alien races are the most difficult to fathom; it's impossible to know what they're thinking.

Yves invited the village chief and a group of villagers to sit down for a meal, and then said that what the boy said was not true.

Not being able to see something doesn't mean you're stupid; it just means there are certain special reasons. Don't let that make you doubt yourself.

His explanation sounded more like a self-justification, and he even repeated it to a group of elves.

The elves remained silent, but they knew perfectly well that this guy was trying to save face for himself.

This group of elves didn't have any ulterior motives, and none of them thought Eve was foolish.

How could a foolish fellow possibly become a powerful cultivator with such formidable abilities?

Putting everything else aside, the way they commanded the wolves was enough to make a group of elves extremely wary.

The elves were thinking to themselves, occasionally glancing furtively at Tang Zhen, trying to guess what kind of being he was.
Tang Zhen simply smiled, quietly savoring the fine wine and food, paying no attention to anything else.

If communication is needed, he will only instruct the female elf Aisha.

Yves' explanation brought a sense of relief to the villagers; otherwise, they would have lived with self-doubt for the rest of their lives.

The authoritative explanation given by the monks was equivalent to official confirmation, achieving the effect of first suppressing and then praising.

The villagers were overjoyed because they had received official confirmation that they were not fools.

Some people gritted their teeth, thinking that the damn brat would definitely get a good beating later.

That one nonsensical remark caused the villagers to collectively break down, and he must be severely punished.

The children standing by the barbecue are unaware of the trouble they've gotten themselves into, and they might very well get a good spanking.

Fortunately, at the critical moment, the elf Ashe saved the unfortunate child. She called a group of children to her and told them a mantra for cultivation.

The villagers stood by, silently watching this scene, feeling that all the effort was well worth it.

This is what the villagers look forward to most, not for themselves, but for the future of their descendants.

The fact that the esteemed cultivator is willing to impart his precious cultivation methods means that the entire village has hope.

If a cultivator were to actually appear in this village, it would naturally be a glorious thing for the family.

The villagers will all benefit from this, receiving tax reductions and having access to opportunities to develop their careers outside their hometown.

In a nearby village, there once lived a practitioner who was fortunate enough to become a student of a high-ranking wizard.

Young people from that village who wanted to leave their hometown to work elsewhere would often seek out that cultivator and work in the businesses he ran.

Many years have passed, and the village has produced many wealthy people. The village has also been developed into a beautiful place, making the nearby villagers envious.

Now that their own village finally has the same opportunity, how could the villagers not be happy?

They were all smiles, providing attentive service and bringing a variety of food to the table.

The village was filled with laughter and joy; such a lively scene had not been seen for many years.

At this time, the villagers also joined in this rare feast, eating, drinking and talking with the precious monks.

This banquet was remembered by the villagers and they continued to talk about it for many years.

These children in the village, too, were fortunate enough to embark on the path of spiritual practice because of this opportunity.
