"Have you heard? The Xuefeng Empire was captured by Prince Kurban!"
"You just know? The source of the news is too slow, right?"
"This Prince Kurban is quite powerful. He actually ascended to the throne of king on his own?"
"What is your own power? It's the Ren Empire that lends his army, and it's the Imperial Army that he relies on!"
"It is worthy of the power of His Majesty the Supreme Emperor Ren!"
"Now the Renne Empire has become the strongest in the Western Continent, and it has also borrowed troops to let the Jordan sisters seize the Eastern Continent. It has controlled two continents. It is really unprecedented! Moreover, the laws of the empire stipulate that all races can be treated equally and protected. Although the Supreme Emperor
His Majesty Ren was killed by the evil god Serra, and the second emperor still followed his orders to govern the country. How great it is!"
"I want to travel to the Renne Empire. I heard that there are more and more orcs there. I have only heard about them in story books before, but never seen them with my own eyes. It's just a good time to gain some knowledge!"
"Orcs? You are indeed lagging behind on news."
"how?"
"Recently, a large number of elves have joined the Renne Empire, causing a sensation. Who are the orcs?"
"You mean the legendary elves? No way! They hate humans so much that they even joined the Ren Empire?"
"So, His Majesty, the Supreme Emperor, is unmatched!"
"Then I have to go to the Ren Empire to see what the legendary elves look like! Is it true that both men and women have beautiful appearances?"
…
The lobby of the tavern is very lively with customers chatting and drinking.
Through the window, next to the messy firewood pile in the backyard of the tavern, a thin young man was chopping hard with an ax, splitting logs into firewood.
The wooden door opened, and the fat tavern proprietress came out, took a look at the firewood on the ground, and shouted to him with dissatisfaction: "Conrad! You lazy guy, don't you know that firewood in the kitchen burns quickly? Don't be lazy!"
"
"Mrs. Newman, I have worked very hard!" The boy named Conrad looked quite tired.
"Working hard? You haven't finished chopping the firewood yet, why don't you speed up? If the supply of firewood will delay the guests' meal, don't eat today!"
Seeing the fat woman turning back to the tavern with a pile of freshly chopped firewood in her hands, the thin boy felt aggrieved.
He works here and only eats two meals a day, which are leftovers from customers. Sometimes he is lucky enough to be half full, but most of the time he is hungry because other leftovers are used by the tavern owner to feed the pigs.
The treatment here is even worse than that of domestic animals.
The pig eats and drinks every day and lies down to sleep. He has endless work to do all day long. Even if he is sick, he has to persevere, otherwise he will not even get his wages at the end of the month.
The reason is that it is difficult to find a new job due to my status.
Although Conrad's family is not wealthy, it is still a normal family and they originally lived a worry-free life. However, for some reason, his father actually believed in the Dark Cult and was discovered by the Light Church.
When the Dark Cult in Sawtooth City was eliminated, Conrad's father resisted with other Dark Cult believers in order to protect the Cult. As a result, he lost his life and left behind his wife and children.
Because his father is a believer in the Dark Cult, and the evil camp is the most taboo and disgusting existence in the Western Continent, Conrad and his mother are looked down upon wherever they go, like rats crossing the street.
Later, his mother couldn't bear the illness and she couldn't afford it. Conrad sold his property and failed to save it. In the end, he was destitute. His mother followed his father and left, leaving him alone.
In order to survive, Conrad looked for work everywhere, but no one in the entire city was willing to provide a job and did not want to have anything to do with the children of the followers of the Dark Cult.
The owner of the tavern secretly hired Conrad as a busboy without making it public, but the conditions were very harsh. He only provided two meals a day with leftovers that were not even as good as pig food and would not be enough to fill up. In case the guests ate too much,
There was not even leftover food. The wages were pitiful. The couple had a bad attitude towards Conrad. They tried their best to squeeze his labor force and did not treat him as a human being. They were sure that he had no place to go, so they could only endure it.
No matter how aggrieved he felt, Conrad still gritted his teeth and persisted
, although the salary is very small, he wants to save enough for travel expenses and leave Sawtooth City or even the Kingdom of East Melanie to other strange countries if he has the opportunity in the future.
You should be able to live a normal life in a place where you don’t know yourself, right?
The premise is that your body can endure it...
In order to change his destiny, Conrad could only persist.
He raised the ax with all his strength and split the next log. He prayed secretly in his heart that there were so many customers in the tavern today, and he hoped that there would be more leftovers.
Just as I was thinking about it, someone suddenly spoke from behind: "What a pity for such a good qualification!"
"Who?!" Conrad was startled and turned around quickly, holding the ax tightly in his hand.
A mysterious man, whose whole body was shrouded in a black robe and whose face could not be seen, appeared out of nowhere and was very close at hand.
Seeing the other party's dress, the word "Dark Cult" instantly appeared in Conrad's mind, and he was extremely frightened.
My father lost his life because of the Dark Cult and his family was ruined. Are they coming to harm me again? He suddenly shook his head in panic: "Are you a Dark Cult? No! Don't look for me! I don't want to have anything to do with the Dark Cult!"
"Dark Cult?" The mysterious man laughed upon hearing this, "Don't insult us with that inferior team!"
"Is the Dark Church an inferior team?" Conrad's eyes widened. That is a powerful evil force that the Light Church must deal with with all its strength!
"Boy, do you believe in miracles?"
"Miracle?"
"Meeting me is your miracle!" The mysterious man took a step forward and extended his hand to invite, "With your qualifications, you can have a completely different life. Come with me! One day, everyone will look up to you!"
"I will not join the evil camp!" Conrad shook his head desperately, "Leave quickly, otherwise I will call someone!"
"Evil camp? We are not the evil camp, we are even on the opposite side of the evil camp!" the mysterious man said with a smile, "I have set up a barrier. No matter how much you shout, no one can hear you!"
Conrad didn't believe it, so he shouted at the window of the tavern to the boss and his wife. Although he hated them, at least they were better than the frightening member of the "evil force" in front of him.
But no matter how loud he shouted, the people in the tavern remained indifferent even though there was only one window between them.
After shouting for a while, there was still no response. Conrad finally believed it and looked at the mysterious man even more horrified: "You, what do you want?"
"Don't be afraid, my child!" The mysterious man slowly took off his hood, revealing his true appearance, and said to him with a smile, "I am the sage Najib. I am looking for people with excellent qualifications and have not been brainwashed by any religious forces.
Outstanding talents. Come with me! You will get the chance to change yourself and return in another attitude. By then, everyone will have to respect you and look up to your existence!"
