A dull longsword and a heartbroken villager

Of course, if divine magic is used, the effect would be even better.

However, Afrena doesn't like using divine magic these days.

Using divine arts also means praying to the gods, but nowadays, when praying to the gods, no one can guarantee whether what descends is benevolent or malevolent.

“It’s all better now.” Afrena looked at Bray with disdain.

The fact that someone would specifically seek me out for such an injury shows how fragile the human body truly is.

However, it was only at this moment that He dared to look at Bray with that kind of gaze.

Bray stretched his limbs while lying in the chair, not bothering to argue with Afrena.

He used medicine in time during the battle, and his injuries were well controlled.

Avrena cured Bree completely with minimal effort.

"Don't worry, it won't leave you with any lasting effects," Avrena added, mistakenly thinking that Bray didn't believe in her abilities.

"The kind where you can jump up and fight?" Bray tried to ask.

“If you want to,” Aphrena replied speechlessly.

Bray raised an eyebrow, quite satisfied with the result.

"So, have you completed the task I gave you?"

“It’s all set. Do whatever you want now,” Bray said casually.

"As long as..." He originally wanted to say that the Bronze race shouldn't do things they shouldn't do, but he didn't finish his sentence.

"Just what?"

“It’s nothing,” Bray shook his head.

"Oh, right, I wanted to ask, what's the deal with this skateboard you gave me?" Bray suddenly remembered something and pointed to the skateboard that had been thrown on the ground.

Upon hearing Bray's words, Aphrena glanced at the skateboard.

He hadn't paid attention to the skateboard that was placed to the side before, since Bray's injury was more noticeable.

"It suddenly stopped working on the road, and I didn't crash into anything." Bray stood up, scratched the back of his head, and said in confusion.

"What...do you use to propel the skateboard?" Avrena looked at Bray strangely.

“Magic… ah, no, it’s internal energy,” Bray answered truthfully.

“…” Aphrena fell silent.

"This tool was originally designed to be driven by magic." The implication was that it would naturally break if driven by internal energy.

"Is it specifically powered by magic?"

Before he left, he heard Aphrena explain that skateboarding requires magic to move.

However, the word "specialized" was not added.

He used magic the entire time he went to find the silver seed, so it wasn't damaged.

However, because his prosthetic eye's magic was drained during the battle with Takaman, he could only use his internal energy to drive the skateboard when he returned.

Huh? Will using internal energy cause this skateboard to malfunction?

"Leave it here. I'll find someone to fix it. You can come and get it yourself later," Afrena said irritably.

“My people all know you, so don’t worry about not being able to get in.”

"You mean you're giving me the skateboard?"

“Since it’s been handed over to you, it’s naturally a gift for you,” Afrena said matter-of-factly.

“We are not a greedy and stingy race.” He emphasized the adjective when He said this.

This guy is making sweeping generalizations again.

"Fine." Bray shrugged; he couldn't change Aphrena's mind.

"Anyway, I killed more than one, so consider this extra reward." After saying that, Bray stretched his limbs and left the church.

"What do you mean there's more than one?" Afrena frowned, wanting to ask something.

Unfortunately, Bray had already slipped away with his two swords. "Dad!" Nia called out, rushing to the doorway before Bray could enter the house.

Her little hands were clenched into fists, forming a large "X" shape.

Bree looked at Nia's furrowed brows and the serious expression on her little face, and was a little puzzled.

"What's wrong?" Bray asked instinctively.

"Daddy, hug me!" Nia tilted her head up and said, enunciating each word clearly.

"Okay." Although it was strange that Nia was asking for a hug so formally, Bray still picked her up.

"Mmm~" After Nia was picked up, she clung to Bray like an octopus.

“…” He felt Nia rubbing against him like a cat.

"Bray!" Levy followed Nia's example and stood in front of Bray.

The only difference is that the expressions are a little more varied 0V0.

"what happened?"

"Break hug!" Levy jumped up and down, her voice filled with longing.

"Okay..." Bray was speechless for a moment, but still nodded.

But he already has a Nia clinging to him, so how is he supposed to hug Levy?

However, Levy clearly didn't need Bray to worry about her, and she jumped onto Bray's back in one swift motion.

Bray suddenly had two large accessories on him.

If Levy and Nia were both very young, Bray wouldn't have felt cramped.

However, Nia is now seven years old, and Levy is about the same age.

Ah...Levy eats a lot, but she doesn't seem to grow very tall.

She should actually be in her teens, but she's only a head taller than Nia.

Thanks to her intelligence, she sought out Afrena for treatment before returning to Yunhai's home.

Otherwise, if these two pendants were to come down, the world would lose another person who upholds the precepts.

“They really like you,” Yunhai said softly from his rocking chair.

“Yes, I know.” Bray did not deny it.

"Nia doesn't like Daddy!" Nia said, clinging tightly to Bree.

“Uh…” Bre was speechless, deeply shocked.

"Daddy won't let Nia hug me anymore," Nia muttered, her voice trailing off.

“There will be a way,” Bray said softly.

"It's not like I'm not coming back; we're going home eventually."

“Back to the real home,” Breton added after a few seconds.

"Hmm..." Little Nia suddenly didn't know what to say.

It's all Dad's fault. He always says things that Nia doesn't know how to respond to.

Dad is too stupid.

“I plan to leave in two days,” Bray said to Nia and Levy.

"Brave, come back soon!" Levy said, burying her face in Bray's back and wagging her tail.

"I'll definitely be back soon."

"Why did you leave after only two days? Couldn't you have stayed a little longer?" Nia said, clutching Bree's clothes, feeling aggrieved.

“Because if we leave earlier, we can come back earlier,” Brad replied.

Nia reluctantly accepted the reason, but she still looked sullen.

"Remember not to break your promise. This old man's house can't hold the hearts of two young girls."

“If they run away from home after the allotted time has passed, I won’t care,” Yunhai said to Bulei jokingly.

This is a joke that probably only Bulei and Yunji would understand.

“By the time they get impatient enough to run away from home, the world may have become safe enough for them to run away,” Bray said.

"I hope so." Yunhai closed his eyes. He didn't understand the future of the world; he was just a former prime minister.

The prime minister had no idea how to save the world.

“That’s right! If Dad doesn’t come back, Nia will have Sister Levy take me away from home!” Nia threatened immediately after hearing her grandfather’s words.

That's right, Grandpa is absolutely right. If Dad doesn't come back to pick me up, I'll run away from home with my sister Levy!

Back then, my dad kept insisting that I come back, but I never did!

Grandpa is so smart!

"Okay~" Levy readily agreed to Nia's request.

“…” Bray felt his expression must be particularly stiff right now.

To everyone's surprise, Levy, who is usually the most well-behaved, would so readily agree to run away from home with Nia.

They've gone astray...where did they learn all this from?

“Run away from home~” Nia repeated the word cheerfully to Levy, making Breya's teeth ache a little.

---

They were supposed to leave in two days, but because Nia was crying, Bray stayed an extra day.

However, it's the third day, and Bray has to leave.

If this is delayed any longer, I will never be able to leave Anjing City in this lifetime.

Someone is still waiting for me inside the ruins to come and reminisce.

So on the day he set off, Bray knelt down in front of Nia and wiped away the tears from the corners of the girl's eyes.

“Nia didn’t cry!” Nia said stubbornly.

“Yes, Nia didn’t cry,” Bray said gently.

"Daddy, take this." The little girl carefully handed the item in her hand to Bray.

"Yunji... um... Sister Yunji asked me to give this to you, Father, it's for starting a fire in the wild." Nia hurriedly began to explain to Bray.

Nia almost called Yunji her aunt; if she hadn't called her sister, Yunji would have hit her head until it was swollen.

"Yes, Daddy accepts it." After putting a bunch of miscellaneous items into his waist bag, Bray nodded to Yun Ji, who was smiling behind him.

This was originally supposed to be prepared for Yun Ji, but it seems she specifically asked Nia to give it to her personally.

"Dad should say thank you!"

"Thank you," Bray said helplessly.

“There are still things I haven’t done,” Nia said, spreading her arms wide and puffing out her cheeks.

Bray hugged the fierce Nia and stroked her hair.

After Bresson released Nia, the little girl's eyes were already red again.

"When Daddy comes back, remember to show him the sword Nia learned to use," Bray said to the girl who was trying not to cry.

"Dad will keep his promise when the time comes."

“Mmm,” Nia replied softly.

"I'm leaving Nia in your care." Bray wasn't speaking to Yunhai or Yunji, but to Levy.

"Levy, I'll do my best!" Levy said, wagging her tail rapidly and raising her paws.

Actually, Levy also wanted Bray to hug her one last time, but she was the mature Levy and couldn't act cute in front of Nia.

"Levy, come here, want a hug?" Bray sighed and called to Levy.
