A bright smiling face suddenly flashed before Lu Nan's eyes, and he covered his head in distress.
"Hey, what are you sighing about here for?" Iori looked at Lu Nan speechlessly. "It's been an hour already, what the hell is in there?"
Lu Nan looked up weakly: "It's because I don't know what it is that I'm so troubled."
Iori rolled her eyes: "I don't understand you. It's just a letter."
Lu Nan had no time to argue with Iori anymore, and asked somewhat helplessly, "What about your letter? What's the situation? Have you thought about how to reply?"
“It was just a letter from my sister, asking how I’m doing. As for how to reply…” Iori suddenly paused, her lips twitching slightly. “Well, I don’t plan to reply this time.”
“That won’t do, Iori.” Nanaka’s voice came through: “Kan also wrote to me and Chisa. It’s only natural to want to know how your brother is doing in a foreign land, isn’t it?”
Iori twitched the corner of her mouth, glanced at the half-naked boy band dancing drunk behind her, and slumped weakly onto the table: "Please, leave this one alone..."
"Lu Nan, what about you? Still not planning to open it and take a look?" Hamaoka Azusa put her arm around Lu Nan's neck: "It's not good to keep running away."
Lu Nan hesitated, holding the envelope, "That's what they say..."
Although I was still a little panicked, what Sister Zi said made sense. I couldn't keep running away, otherwise I would be doomed if I got caught.
Seeing that Lu Nan seemed to have made up his mind, Hamaoka Azusa patted his head and said, "Don't worry, nothing will happen."
With that, Hamaoka Azusa stood up and left Lu Nan's side, deciding to let Lu Nan face it alone, since it was a letter from his hometown.
Lu Nan swallowed hard and carefully opened the envelope. There was nothing strange inside, just two pieces of paper.
Lu Nan thought for a moment, then picked up the topmost letter and began to read it.

In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland.

To Lu Nan:
I wonder if you are alright, how is life over there? Are you experiencing any problems adjusting to the new environment? In short, the people in the village are very worried about you.
Everyone was frantic during the days you suddenly disappeared. Village Chief Puxian thought a human trafficker had entered the village, so he carried a knife and plowed up the surrounding land, but still couldn't find you.
Lord Flame was extremely anxious at that time, and he looked terrifying.
I heard that back then, Lord Lieyan took Wangcai out and slashed at every dragon they saw, asking everywhere where they were. Unfortunately, they searched everywhere but couldn't find them. When they finally came back, they brought back a huge amount of materials that almost filled the entire gathering place.
Later, Lord Winter Wind also came looking for him, saying that Dai Miao was also missing. Everyone thought that you had suffered some injustice and had run away from home with Dai Miao. Lord Blazing Flame drank for a long time.
Fortunately, Lord Ni Tai used some special methods to locate your position, and everyone realized that you had just traveled through time and hadn't run away from home.
Although it's not unusual, everyone was quite worried. We tried many methods before finally getting in touch with you again, but for certain reasons, we could only contact you through the most special means of communication, the assembly hall.
We can't come and go as we please right now, so it's a pity we can't meet. But everyone is working hard, and I believe that day will come sooner or later.
After the greetings, let's move on to some more personal matters. I heard that when Shuiyun was working at the meeting place, she could occasionally sense what was going on with the adults.
Everyone is worried about Lord Lu Nan, but he's so carefree. But then again, Lord Lu Nan hasn't changed at all.
Lord Lu Nan, do you know? My sister has been acting very strangely these past few days because of someone. She was already a bit cold, but then she became even colder. According to Lord Ni Tai, it was to the point that "just getting close to her felt like you were going to freeze."
Me too. It feels a bit strange not seeing you running around in the village for several days. Even Tuanzi seems a bit bland. It's really too much for Lord Lu Nan to make a girl so sad.
It seems the only way to compensate us is to have Lord Lu Nan marry into our family.
Of course, I was just kidding.
Everything is fine in the village, so there's no need to worry. We're all relieved to know you're doing well, but Lady Lieyan still misses you. There's a letter she wrote herself, and we wonder which one will be seen first?
That's all for now. Remember to write back! Just put it in the envelope after you're done.
On the back of the letter was a painting by Shuiyun, which was meant to ease some of her homesickness.
Flamefire Village will always be your home.
Handwritten by Huoya.

Chapter 241 I will come to you
Lu Nan chuckled to himself. So those carefree guys actually had a day when they were in such a hurry.
I never expected Village Chief Puxian to be so amazing...
Instructor Ni Tai, how come he has such a magical secret technique? I've never seen him use it before.
Sister Shuiyun, Sister Huoya...
Lu Nan turned the envelope over; it contained a very abstract painting, and Lu Nan struggled to make out who was who.
"Goodness, Sister Shuiyun's painting skills haven't improved at all." Lu Nan said with some amusement. This painting, which looks very abstract, must have been painted by Sister Shuiyun.
Especially the exquisitely detailed Fire Sprout Sister, who stands out from the surrounding abstract little figures; they're not even on the same layer.
Only someone with a sister complex would do something like this.
Lu Nan took a deep breath, carefully folded the letter and put it in his pocket, then took out another letter with a complicated expression and began to read it.
Unlike Sister Huoya's envelope, there weren't many words in Lieyan's envelope, but it still made Lu Nan feel uneasy.

You're so far away from me now, are you angry with me?
Can you please not be angry? You still haven't given me an answer to my confession.
You said you'd give me an answer the next day, but you disappeared the next day.
I thought you were avoiding me...
Wangcai misses you, and so do I. I miss you too.
They told me to wait, saying it wasn't possible right now.
Lu Nan, wait for me, I will definitely come to your side.
I will hear that answer from your own ears.

Lu Nan wiped the sweat from his forehead. At first glance, the letter seemed normal, but the more he read it, the more something felt off, though he couldn't quite put his finger on it.
It's as if some kind of gravitational field is unfolding between the lines...
Lu Nan sighed deeply, folded the letter neatly, and put it away.
At the time, he thought Lieyan was both beautiful and powerful. The village beauty said that he was too familiar with her at that time to have any bad thoughts about her.
Although both Village Chief Puxian and Instructor Nitai seemed to be interested in making this happen, before Lu Nan's feelings could change, Lieyan's feelings changed first.
It's not that things have changed, but rather that they haven't changed much from the beginning. She has always treated him like a childhood sweetheart, but Lu Nan was completely unaware of it at the time.
Lieyan is a complete novice when it comes to relationships. She has no idea how to express her feelings or what to do. She just tries to be nicer to Lu Nan, and then even nicer.
At the time, Lu Nan thought that Sister Lieyan was raising suicide soldiers. He was just waiting for Sister Lieyan to give the order, and even his own brother, Golden Lion, Lu Nan would dare to go up and fight.
Moreover, Lu Nan was having a great time with the Dragon Sisters and didn't notice that there was a pair of eyes behind him whose expression had been changing again and again.
Until one day, the leader of the Fiery Clan confessed her feelings to him.
Lu Nan was stunned. "No way? I treated you like a boss, and you want to sleep with me?!"
At that moment, Lieyan was very serious, unlike his previous probing or joking.
It gave the impression that if Lu Nan dared to agree to Lie Yan's request, Lie Yan would open the gate wide and fight Lu Nan to the death on the spot.
Lu Nan was completely confused and didn't know how to answer for a moment, so he could only say that he would go back and calm down and give an answer.
Then, while eating dumplings and drinking with Daimiao in the meeting place, they were suddenly transported to another world without any warning.
Lu Nan had actually agreed, but he needed time to mentally prepare himself.
The result was that he was dragged here, isn't that absurd? Now, facing the flames again, he's finding it hard to even speak.
The main thing is that I always have this feeling that if I see flames again, I will definitely be entangled until one of us falls completely before it ends.
Lu Nan shivered. In fact, he might not lose to Lie Yan in terms of stamina. Back when Lie Yan was low on health but not quite carted, Lu Nan was the one who carried Lie Yan to change positions and replenish his health.
But what's so strange about Flame is that she learns everything extremely quickly, no matter what it is. She can master any weapon in no time.
Unfortunately, on one occasion, Lu Nan accidentally discovered some ominous books under Lie Yan's bed.
A lot of the information in it was wrong. Lu Nan was laughing and saying at the time that he wondered who would be so unlucky.
Now, this ominous knowledge is very likely to be used against him, so Lu Nan has no choice but to panic again.
But there's an even bigger problem right now: how should we reply?
As for not replying like Iori? Heh, unless he really wants to die, he can try it. Isn't that just needlessly adding to someone's anger?
But if I were to reply truthfully, there would be so much to say; I can't possibly write over 400,000 words, can I?
For a moment, Lu Nan felt like a programmer facing a mountain of code, completely unsure where to begin.
"You're stuck on writing a reply too?" Iori leaned closer curiously. "You don't know what to write either, do you?"
"No, I feel like there's too much to write, and I have no idea where to begin," Lu Nan said, scratching his head in frustration.
"?"
Iori was speechless. What did that mean? Is your life really that exciting? So much so that you can't possibly write it all down?
“In that case, if we don’t know where to begin, why not start with the [Preliminary] section?” Nana said.
"Previous section?" Lu Nan, who had never written a letter before, scratched his head in confusion.
"It refers to the words in the letter that are omitted from the opening remarks," Iori said. "Nanaka-nee's point is valid; I think it's worth a try."
Lu Nan understood, picked up a piece of paper, and brandished the ballpoint pen in his hand—
【Foreword】
【Original】
[The rest is omitted]
"..."
After carefully reading through the letter again, Lu Nan exclaimed, "What a delightful reply! I'm so proud of my wit!"
Daimiao withdrew its gaze and said seriously, "Boss, I think if I write it like this and send it back, I might get beaten to death, meow."
