The early winter sun shines into a certain room in the Dusk Hotel at a low angle. The gentle light shines gently on a wooden staff leaning against the table. This is a slightly textured staff.
There are some twisted black wooden staffs. The fine gold heads of the wooden staffs are forged into the shape of monster claws. The pale golden claws extend towards the center and firmly grasp a black spherical gemstone with a faint black light.
Next to the wooden staff, a mage wearing a black fine velvet robe with silver edges was sitting quietly in a simple wicker chair. He leaned forward slightly, with his hood drooped down to cover half of his face, hiding under the
The eyes under the shadow shone with a strange light. He pursed his thin lips tightly, and his unfocused eyes fell on his hands. They were two slender and pale hands, with slender fingers passing through each other and held together.
, his two elbows were firmly supported on both sides of the armrests of the wicker chair, which made his whole person form a unique thinking posture.
He seems to have a name called Xiao Fen, but in this game, in this world, what people know about him is another man who is weak in physique but controls a very powerful mage - Palin
.
There was an annoying sound of stirring things in the back room. Xiao Fen, whose thoughts were interrupted, raised his head with a trace of disappointment in his eyes. Although it was nothing on the surface, he still felt a little uncomfortable in his heart as he watched his friends leave one by one.
of.
He knew that in the back room were Half an Apple, Yun, and Xinyu who were packing their bags. Thinking about it, they would be leaving here soon, going to the south, to the warm Fort del Carmen Peninsula, in this gradually getting colder season.
Here, maybe going to the south is indeed a good choice.
Xiao Fen closed his eyes, and the scene of Xue, Ke'er, and the little girl's farewell immediately appeared in front of his eyes...
...At the end of autumn, the woods near dusk have changed into a withered coat that is a little desolate and decadent. Some trees even have only bare branches left. Occasionally, a golden leaf falls off, floats to the ground like a broken butterfly, and then turns into a golden leaf.
Faint memories of past summers.
Xiao Fen gently caught a fallen leaf flying in the wind. He buried his head and felt a little sad.
"Fen, I'm leaving." Xue put on a brand new chain armor. The tight silver armor that outlined her beautiful curves looked pleasing to the eye when paired with a plain white shirt, and the golden sun emblem on the shirt looked pleasing to the eye.
It also plays a very good role in embellishment. The equipment designed by Canaan's excellent artists is not only practical, but also extremely beautiful.
"Oh." Xiao Fen buried his head, his tone seemed a little dissatisfied, like a angry child.
Seeing Xiao Fen like this, Xue couldn't help but feel angry and funny. She never thought that Xiao Fen, who was always mature and steady, would actually show such a childish side. But when she thought that this change was because of herself, she couldn't help but think again.
Her pretty face turned red, and her heart felt a little sweet.
"Fen, don't be like this, okay?" But no matter what she said, Xue was still a little worried. She was afraid that if Xiao Fen continued like this, she would not be able to let go and go to the north with the little girl.
"Well, I got it! But Xue, you have to pay attention to your safety. Well, you have to be careful not to let others deceive you! The boys in the game are all very bold!" Xiao Fen forced a smile and raised a finger at the same time.
He raised his head and said pretending to be serious.
Xue was stunned for a moment, then she covered her mouth and smiled slightly, saying with a hint of coquettishness: "Where is it?"
"Okay, I wish Xue a safe journey!" Xiao Fen leaned down and kissed Xue, saying gently.
The latter nodded slightly.
After Xiao Fen and Xue finished talking, the little girl who had been listless for the past few days also ran over from the half apple. She lowered her head first, took a gentle breath, and then whispered: "
Brother Palin, the little... the little girl is gone! You... don't think about the little girl so much that you can't sleep! Pay attention to your health! ... at most... at most, the little girl will let you kiss me! I can only...
...Only for a moment!" As she spoke, the little girl's face turned into a little red apple.
Xiao Fen suddenly frowned, wondering what this little girl was talking about. He raised his head and looked into the distance. Ke'er was covering her mouth and bending over with laughter. He shook his head.
I immediately understood in my heart who taught the little girl to tell these 'nonsense'.
Xue also smiled slightly and looked at Ke'er with a slightly annoyed look, but at the same time she looked at the serious little girl and frowned slightly.
"Ahem." Xiao Fen coughed lightly, glanced at the big black wooden box held by the little girl, and said gently: "Okay, little girl, Brother Palin wishes you in advance... Well, successful atonement.
Also, if I have a chance, I will complete this 'sword' mission by the way. I hope to see you using this sword when I see you next time!"
"Yes!" The little girl nodded heavily, and then said: "Brother Palin, please come quickly! The little girl's birthplace is very beautiful! There are tall buildings, halls, beautiful vaults, and murals.
, there are also many statues of holy warriors, um... and the little girl’s favorite Holy Sword Square, Brother Palin must come!”
"Yes, yes! I will be quick!" Xiao Fen nodded quickly.
The little girl's face immediately glowed with joy. She pulled Ke'er closer with a sweet smile and said, "Sister Ke'er also has something to say to you!"
"Huh?" Xiao Fen was slightly startled and tilted his head.
"Um...I...I want to say...I want to say, I...goodbye!" Ke'er's face turned red after being pushed in front of Xiao Fen. Her eyes drifted left and right, and after hesitating for a long time, she finally revealed a
He smiled awkwardly, scratched his head, and spat out two extremely nutritious bytes.
"Goodbye?" Xiao Fen nodded and said, "But don't teach the little girl to say those weird words, thank you!"
"No way... no way... that's what the little girl originally meant!" Ke'er laughed loudly.
Xiao Fen showed a helpless expression, "Ke'er, although Xue is the most stable among the three of you girls, you are the only one who can control the little girl. Be careful not to let her get into trouble... Of course, don't go crazy with her.
I wish you a safe and sound arrival at the Fortress of the Gods!"
"...Okay." Ke'er was slightly shocked, suppressed her smile, glanced at Xiao Fen, and nodded lightly.
"Snow?"
"Yeah." Xue also nodded slightly.
"Xiao Nizi?"
"Don't worry! I have no problem!" the little girl said confidently.
The corner of Xiao Fen's mouth twitched, and he thought to himself: "You are the one I worry about the most!"
... After a brief farewell, Shining Gold Coin sent away its first group of team members. The departure of the three girls, especially the little girl, made this team, which was always full of chirping noises and laughter, become deserted.
Except for the occasional wretched roar and funny remarks that can make people smile, the colors in the game suddenly seem to be much duller.
Xiao Fen's body moved, and his thoughts returned to reality. He gently put his hands together to support his chin, staring blankly at the dust floating up and down in the sun, and then recalled the leaving of wrought iron and wild stones.
That day...
...The loud voice of wrought iron rang in his ears. For many days, he had felt that this voice was harsh and always easily caused unnecessary danger in the wild. But today, he felt that this voice was very kind.
"Hey! Cunning guy! We are leaving, passing through the Great Valley from the east, then eastward along the shore of Jinghu Lake, passing through the central area of Olas, and finally reaching the Yunzhong Mountains in the far east. Oh! That cloud and fog all year round
The winding mountainous area is the hometown of our dwarves!" Wrought Iron knocked on the table with one hand and said loudly at the same time.
Xiao Fen, who had just finished writing a long letter expressing his feelings to Xue, raised his head, glanced at the dwarf in front of him, and showed a teasing smile: "It's hard to believe."
"What do you mean?" The dwarf took back the hand that had been tapping on the table, checked the ax on his waist, then raised his head and asked a little doubtfully.
"It's hard to believe." Xiao Fen raised a finger and a smile appeared on his lips. "It's really incredible that you can tell the direction clearly... Well, if you say that the Yunzhong Mountains are to the west
, I wouldn’t be surprised at all!”
"Ahem! Bastard!" Forge Iron fiercely pulled out a map and slapped it on the table. "With the map, I! The great dwarf Forge Iron, has always been called the God of Direction. I know the direction."
His sensing ability is even better than that of a ranger! Yes, this is a natural instinct."
Xiao Fen tilted his head to the left, supported his temple with one hand, and said nothing, just looked at the dwarf and smiled quietly.
"Master Direction! May I ask if you still remember the Oolong incident in the Sunken Square?" Half Apple said behind the dwarf with a smile.
The tall Manshi Hanhan also showed a rare and indescribable smile on his face.
Wrought Iron's face suddenly turned red. He fanned himself with the map and said, "Damn it, why is it so hot here!"
"It's early winter now." Yun beside him added lightly.
"In addition..." Without giving Wrought Iron a chance to interrupt, Xiao Fen turned sideways and said to Half Apple: "It seems that this time the division of the spoils is missing more than 1,300 gold coins."
Half Apple nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, if you calculate it, that box of gold nuggets should be worth more than 42300 gold coins... It seems that this account should be settled on a certain dragon."
"Didn't someone here say that he wanted to kill a certain dragon into three pieces?" Xiao Fen smiled slightly.
"Ahem...I mean, I'm here to say goodbye to you! Goodbye! See you in a year!" Wrought Iron quickly finished what he wanted to say, and then pulled the wild stone and ran away...
...The room fell silent. The sound of turning things over in the back room was no longer heard. Xiao Fen's mind returned to reality again. He shook his head, with a knowing smile on his lips. He raised his head and was looking at it.
I was about to stretch my body, but I was shocked to find half an apple standing in front of me with a smile, an indifferent expression on my face, and a still a bit shy voice in my heart.
"Well? Have you packed it up?" Xiao Fen stood up.
"Well...well, Brother Palin, we have packed up and came here to say goodbye to you!" Xinyu said softly.
"Are you leaving?" Although this question was silly, Xiao Fen still asked it in a low voice.
"Yeah!" Yun nodded.
"Okay, Lao Pa, there's no need to give it away. Anyway, it's not like we have no chance to meet!" Half Apple winked at him.
Xiao Fen nodded and watched quietly as Xinyu slowly walked out of the room, then disappeared behind the door. Looking at half an apple, she smiled and turned back to him with a goodbye gesture, and then the figure disappeared behind
Behind the door, Yun turned around and smiled lightly at him, then closed the door gently with a muffled sound.
He stared blankly at the closed door, feeling the silence of the room alone. Under the sun, the dust rose and fell slowly, as if he ignored time and everything.
Xiao Fen sighed and sat back on the wicker chair. A feeling of loneliness arose in his heart. He raised his head, looked at the ceiling thoughtfully, and murmured in a low voice: "Everyone left so quickly.
...The next time we get together will be a year later. In two days, maybe I will leave here too..."
As he spoke, he gently touched the staff beside the table. The black wooden staff moved slightly, and then still leaned quietly beside the table. The sunlight that poured into the room still shone gently on the wooden staff.
On top of the staff.
Perhaps, a new story will start from here...

(ps: Special thanks to haha1iu for your comment. The purpose of writing this book is to practice my portrayal of characters, so I chose a simpler character to write about at first. Mainly because I was afraid that I would not be able to master the more complicated characters well.
character, so please forgive me here. After the end of the volume, I was barely satisfied with the plot of this volume, but I felt vaguely dissatisfied with many details and character portrayals, so I opened that voting option.
, I want to find out what the problem is - after reading haha1iu's book review, I suddenly realized, thank you, and I also hope that everyone can give me helpful opinions... I write to write better things again and again.
