Ye Qingxian made up her mind; she wanted to see Esther as soon as possible!

Since the world is relatively peaceful, it means that humans and dragons are not mortal enemies, so it should be very convenient for her to go to the dragon kingdom...

"Hmm? You want to go to the Dragon Kingdom? Then I suggest you join the queue."

"queue?"

"Yes, people of all races who want to visit the Dragon Kingdom are already lined up to the sky. The Dragon Kingdom only offers a limited number of places, so you have to wait in line."

"This……"

"Don't worry, the Empire's queuing system is fair and just, and there will be no queue-jumping. Just use your Imperial citizen ID to go to the city hall of any city to complete the procedures."

"..."

Ye Qingxian hadn't expected it to be so troublesome, with a queue? She couldn't wait at all.

However, with her current strength, she simply cannot sneak into the Dragon Kingdom.

Chapter 277, Page 262: The Princess Selling Bread

Ye Qingxian learned a lot of information from Anstilla, but after receiving her 50 copper coins as wages, she had to leave the bakery.

Although she knew Anstilla, she did not know the Anstilla of today, or rather, she knew Anstilla in her past life.

Suddenly trying to establish a relationship can easily arouse the other party's suspicion, which would be counterproductive.

However, during this period of settling down, Ye Qingxian will not ignore Anstella's existence. She will try to become friends with Anstella because she is betting that Anstella's future will not be ordinary.

Although Anstella is not a princess in this timeline, Ye Qingxian has not forgotten that Anstella is a magical genius. If different life experiences do not affect her talent, then Anstella's future is definitely promising.

Ye Qingxian couldn't assess her own strength at the moment, but she believed that she was at most just an ordinary person with decent qualities. If she wanted to survive better in this world, she would have to find a powerful backer.

When Anstella becomes a great mage in the future, she, as Anstella's friend, can ask Anstella for help when necessary.

With 50 copper coins in hand, Ye Qingxian began looking for a place to stay, and eventually she found that the money was enough for her to stay in an inn for one day.

The inn charges 80 copper coins per night, but minors get a 50% discount. Ye Qingxian, with her youthful appearance and short stature, was mistaken for a minor by the innkeeper.

However, Ye Qingxian didn't know how old she was. In terms of physical age, she might not even be an adult.

Fortunately, this hotel did not require identification documents, otherwise Ye Qingxian would have had to sleep on the streets tonight.

She discovered that the human empire had a strong administrative system, as evidenced by the fact that every citizen had an identification card. The control at the grassroots level was quite good; at least, outsiders like her without identification would be detected instantly.

However, as Anstira said, this world is a peaceful one, and the various races are not as xenophobic as one might imagine, so even without an identity, one is not necessarily unable to move an inch.

Ye Qingxian rented a room on the second floor. This room also had a small balcony. As night fell, Ye Qingxian stood on the balcony and looked at the town under the night sky.

The town looked very wealthy. It was brightly lit at night and the streets were still very lively. Vendors sold all kinds of food on the roadside. In Ye Qingxian's memory, most ordinary people on the continent of Faya could not afford such food. They could only eat hard bread and even eating meat was a rare treat.

But the town's productivity seemed very high, and everyone could afford normal food. The bread sold in Anstilla's bakery was made of white flour and cost only 10 copper coins, which speaks volumes.

Ye Qingxian was very curious about the peaceful world that Anstira had described, but she didn't know if this town was an exception or if the whole world of Faya was like this.

Standing on the balcony, Ye Qingxian couldn't help but look up at the sky. Actually, she was somewhat resistant to the starry sky now, afraid of seeing those jinxes that brought her nightmares again.

Fortunately, the worst-case scenario didn't happen; the starry sky was just an ordinary starry sky.

Ye Qingxian returned to her room. After calming down, she felt conflicted. Was she reborn? Or was she trapped in a dream after death?

All signs indicate that this is not an illusion, but a real world. However, Ye Qingxian does not understand why she is here when she died on Earth.

The only explanation is that something orchestrated all of this, but who exactly is it?

Ye Qingxian not only became younger in age, but her mindset also returned to that of a young person, as if the memories of growing old on Earth no longer existed.

In other words, her girlish heart has returned; she is not an old person, either in appearance or in her heart.

Estia is a thousand years old, yet her personality remains very youthful; it just goes to show how short human lifespans are.

Lying in bed, Ye Qingxian thought a lot and finally confirmed that the most important goal at present was to survive. Only by surviving would everything have meaning. She had finally returned to the world where Estheria existed. If she suddenly died due to some accident, wouldn't she be heartbroken?

This isn't a game world where you can be resurrected, and she no longer has the Star Crystal Dragon Knight profession. Now she doesn't know magic or combat skills, and her physical abilities are at most slightly stronger than an ordinary person. In this strange world full of monsters, dying is really too easy.

Ye Qingxian and Esther had been separated for many years; if you include the time she spent on Earth, it could be said that they hadn't seen each other for a century.

But even though so much time had passed, Ye Qingxian felt as if the time she spent with Esther was just yesterday.

Lying in bed with his eyes closed, he imagined a silver dragon girl's soft body beside him, but when he reached out to touch her, he couldn't feel anything.

However, there is hope. The current situation is much better than frantically searching for a way to travel between worlds on Earth.

Ye Qingxian fell asleep in bed. She had spent countless nights sleeping alone, and she didn't want to continue like this any longer.

But even if he meets Estia, will she still remember him...?

If this really is the second timeline of the Faya world, does that mean everyone's memories have been erased?

Overwhelmed by a mix of emotions, including anticipation and anxiety about the future, Ye Qingxian had very poor sleep quality. Even when the sunlight streamed into her room the next morning, she still felt incredibly tired.

Feeling hungry again, Ye Qingxian had 10 copper coins left, just enough to buy a loaf of bread from Anstilla.

After buying the bread, she was penniless again.

"Miss Anstella, have you ever heard of magic?" Ye Qingxian asked while eating her bread.

"Of course I've heard of it! It's an incredibly powerful force, so amazing..."

Have you ever thought about learning magic?

Hearing Ye Qingxian say this, Anstila gave a wry smile: "Although the living conditions now are much better than my father's generation, learning magic is not something that ordinary people dare to even think about."

Knowing that Ye Qingxian was completely clueless, Anstella began to explain the cost of learning magic—

No beginner magic book costs less than 1 gold coin.

Even a basic magic wand costs no less than 1 gold coin.

Finding a magician as a mentor would cost at least 10 gold coins.

1 gold = 100 silver = 10000 copper.

Anstella sells a loaf of bread for only 10 copper coins.

"Even if I don't consider the cost of selling bread, if I need 12 gold coins to learn magic, I would have to sell 12000 loaves of bread, sob sob sob."

Based on the current sales figures, it would take Anstilla a year to sell enough to make a profit. After deducting the costs of flour, store maintenance, and taxes, it would take even longer to save enough money.

And even without eating or drinking, she still needs to eat.

Learning magic was a distant dream for Anstella.

"Please allow me to express my sympathy for you..."

Ye Qingxian felt that perhaps only a very powerful magician would recognize Anstella's talent and help her learn magic.

It seems that talent alone is not enough; sometimes opportunity is also crucial.

Beware of this woman with irresistible charm.

Chapter 278, Page 263: Such Happiness (4k Long Chapter)

It's such a shame that Anstella can't learn magic because she's short of money.

However, Ye Qingxian suddenly realized something important: if this world is the second cycle of the Faya world, why would Anstilla be born now?

Back in the continent of Fania, Anstira, as the princess of the Kingdom of Fania, had been in power for over twenty generations.

Could it be that……

Ye Qingxian could only consider one possibility: that the empire, which should have perished, continued to exist for over a thousand years, making Anstira's birth reasonable.

This also means that Esther is over 1000 years old. If Esther also loses her memory, will she meet someone else she likes during these thousand years...?

Yes, probably... very likely...

Thinking of this, Ye Qingxian became even more anxious to find Esther. She felt increasingly uneasy. Why was fate playing such a joke on her?

But she needs to fill her stomach first. She only ate four pieces of bread yesterday, which was far from enough to make her feel full. After a night, the bread had all been digested.

Ye Qingxian used her last 10 copper coins to buy a loaf of bread from Anstilla. Just as she was eating this precious ration, the town's guards found her.

"Miss, please don't panic, we are just asking questions."

For undocumented outsiders, it is essential to determine whether they pose a threat in order to maintain the stability of the town.

"I...I don't have any identification, but believe me, I'm not a bad person."

"I can tell."

The guard smiled kindly at Ye Qingxian, which immediately eased the tense atmosphere.

The guards then began asking questions, such as where Ye Qingxian came from and what she wanted to do there.

Anstella, who was standing next to Ye Qingxian, also helped explain, mentioning Ye Qingxian's current miserable situation, that she didn't even have money for food.

Finally, the guard nodded and said to Ye Qingxian, "Come to the city hall tomorrow afternoon to pick up your temporary identity certificate."

"Huh?? Thank you!"

Faced with this unexpected surprise, Ye Qingxian was very excited. She didn't expect the people in the town to be so kind as to help her get her identity document.

"In fact, as long as there is no threat, one can move freely within the Empire. Without identification, one can go to any town to process it, and it applies even to those who are not citizens of the Empire."

"Thank you."

"And also..."

The guard took out a form from his pocket and handed it to Ye Qingxian, then took out a pen and handed it over as well.

Ye Qingxian was slightly surprised. Although fountain pens existed in the original Faya world, they were extremely rare items and not something an ordinary guard could carry around casually...

Either this guard has an extraordinary background, or in this new world of Faya, fountain pens have become commonplace.

Ye Qingxian took the form and found that she could easily understand the text on it.

Moreover, she had long found it strange that Anstilla, who didn't speak Chinese, could converse with her like a native speaker.
