The boy's name is Pullman, and he comes from Brownwood Village, a remote village on the edge of the West Wind Kingdom.
Pullman said that he had been heading east since he left home without stopping, and it took him about seven days to get here.
Lorraine Hill estimated that based on past life experience, ordinary people can walk up to 50 kilometers in a day, but this is a forest mountain road, so it needs to be discounted. In other words, from this forest to the west, you can reach humans 150,200 kilometers away.
society.
"I made a mistake, so I escaped."
After hesitating in silence for a while, the young man opened his mouth to explain why he appeared here, but he did not explain what specific mistake he had made.
When he said this, his eyes dimmed a little, and his voice became lower unconsciously.
Looking at the boy who had become silent again, the girl guessed that there might be some unexplainable reasons behind it.
Lorraine Hill stopped pursuing the matter and asked another question.
"Where do you plan to go in the future?"
"I...I don't know, I'll probably find a place to live in the forest, or maybe one day I'll be eaten by a passing monster."
A self-deprecating smile appeared on the young man's face, and he buried his face in his arms on his knees.
The yellow bonfire made a faint crackling sound at night, dispelling the chill of the night in the mountains. The smell of burning wood permeated the surroundings, and occasionally the chirping of insects in the distance could be heard.
The forest at night is not safe, and this is the inaccessible Tisilan Mountains. Traces of monsters with extraordinary power can often be seen. Fortunately, the red dragonfly that was hunting nearby died not long ago, and other monsters have not spread their chassis.
, so it has been relatively stable recently.
The young man believed that ordinary people like him were seeking death if they entered the forest.
However, he had no other way out.
Why did I get to this point? Obviously I am a timid person, and I obviously just want to be an ordinary person who helps others raise sheep.
If we want to talk about the biggest dream, it is to please the village head Aunt Sandy and get her to agree to marry Qiongna.
Although Joanna has a few freckles on her face, she really likes her lively look. Unfortunately, Aunt Sandy is a tailor and her family is much better off than hers. She can occasionally eat white bread. But he has only eaten half a piece of white bread in his life.
The bread was still half of what his cousin got when he got married.
The young man stared blankly at the bonfire in front of him, lost in memories and thoughts.
"Have you never thought about how to survive?"
Lorraine Hill took out a few fruits and placed them by the fire, preparing to eat them after they were roasted. The green fruits were similar to the citrus in his memory, with a sweet and sour taste.
"have no idea...."
There was a flame of hatred burning in the young man's heart, but he also felt disappointed at his own weakness.
"Well, let's talk about what's going on outside, okay?"
"You...no, hello, distinguished lady. Thank you for your rescue. Just ask, I will tell you everything I know."
"Don't be so respectful, just call me Lorraine Hill."
"Here, let's call you Miss Lorraine Hill, otherwise it would be too rude."
"Well, you care about politeness. Has anyone taught you?" Lorraine Hill was a little curious.
"No, I just saw that everyone in the city calls those distinguished ladies that way."
"Well, have you ever gone to school?"
"No, commoners like us are not qualified to go to school, and we don't have that much money. In our village, only the village chief is literate, and the rest only know a few important numbers."
"Okay, so what era is it now?"
"It should be more than 1,600 years ago in the Third Age. I don't know the details. I just heard it from a priest passing by the village."
Has it been so long? In Trinasha's memory, it's still the Second Era. She doesn't know when it ended. And the Third Era has passed for more than 1,600 years. Lorraine Hill sighed and continued to ask.
.
"What countries are there on the continent now?"
"Sorry, I don't know. The farthest I've ever been from home has only been to Trin City. I only knew that I was in the Kingdom of West Wind."
"As for other countries... I have only heard of the Black Rock Principality, which seems to be a mercenary country in the north. I have seen some mercenaries claiming to be the people of the Witz Mountains from Black Rock."
Lorraine Hill chatted for a while later and got a general idea of the current situation outside. Although Pullman didn't know much, judging from the daily life, customs and labor he described, the world today should be similar to medieval Europe.
In that situation, the people's production capacity is limited, and the nobles rule their own territories.
As for extraordinary abilities, Pullman had only heard that the captain of the guard in Trin City had Sequence 1 strength, which was already very powerful. Even the nearby robbers did not dare to provoke him.
It's very weak. Although Lorraine Hill himself is only Sequence 1, but because he studied under Trinasha, a powerful figure in the Mercury Dynasty, in Trinasha's description, Sequence 1 is just for learning and transition, at most.
That is to say, I will serve as an assistant. The warriors of Dynasty should at least start at Sequence 2.
Even the most elite combat troops of the dynasty were all Sequence 5 members. For example, the New Moon Death Scythe Knights at that time were all Sequence 5 Death Scythe Knights.
There was no way. At that time, the elven countries had accumulated thousands of years of accumulation and their per capita combat effectiveness was very high. Soldiers who did not have the strength of Sequence 2 were not qualified to be used as cannon fodder.
What has the world of Ivar experienced in these more than 1,600 years? It has degenerated to this point, and the elves have not counterattacked. Although the silver elves have been exterminated, there are still many forest elves left, and all the elves have migrated.
The ice elves who went to the northern continent were in good condition.
There are still many questions, but it is impossible to understand them clearly today. Let’s go out and understand them later. The girl stopped asking.
"Where is Miss Lorraine Hill from? Like you, she should be a young lady from a noble family."
With his poor knowledge, the young man could only imagine that a young lady from a noble family could have such appearance and clothing. Moreover, the girl's fingers were white and there were no traces of work at all. This was not something ordinary people could achieve.
"No, I'm just an ordinary person... Well, I lived in the forest with my teacher since I was a child, but my teacher passed away not long ago."
After thinking for a moment, the girl replied, which was actually basically true.
"Are your injuries okay? I see there are blood stains on your clothes."
"It's okay, I won't die for a while, but... I'm afraid there are some things that I will never be able to do."
The young man's voice was choked with sobs.
"What's going on?"
The night wind in the forest blew by, the bonfire kept swaying, and the boy began to tell an ordinary and sad story.
