Chronicles of Ryan the Wizard

Falash asked, "Free labor?"

The skinny innkeeper said: "Yes, I work for free. I can only eat two rough meals a day. I won't die but I can never get enough."

Faras seemed to be a little suspicious of the innkeeper's words. She stared into the eyes of the thin old man and asked word by word: "Since working as a miner is tax-free, then why do you open an inn?"

The skinny innkeeper sighed and said, "After all, there are a lot of copper mines here. Every year, there are a lot of businessmen here to buy. There is only my hotel in this city, and I can barely survive. To be honest, compared to those miners, I feel very satisfied."

Ryan was very indignant when he heard the skinny innkeeper. He said loudly, "Is there no one in the empire to take care of it?"

The skinny innkeeper glanced at him contemptuously, and said disdainfully: "Do it? Who will do it? How do you do it? The laws of the empire itself allow each city lord to have absolute control in their own territory, as long as they don't rebel. Besides, what if you do too much? Thousands of clinking gold coins can shut people up. If it doesn’t work, those..."

Having said this, the skinny innkeeper's expression changed, as if thinking of something, he quickly changed his words and said: "What are you going to use? I have no business here in the past few months, so I will give you the best price. It’s also idle."

Faras thought for a while and decided to live here. She is not used to living in the wild. Although she spends more money, she is not short of money.

A sumptuous dinner was quickly placed on the table, but everyone was very depressed.Eating a piece of barbecue is almost eating a silver coin of the same weight as him. In this case, even Farasi, who spends money and never blinks, feels pain.

Barely filling their stomachs, everyone followed the skinny innkeeper to the upstairs of the inn.Amid the bragging of the skinny innkeeper, they moved into their own rooms.

Every room has just been cleaned. Although there is no such thing as the skinny innkeeper boasted, the occupancy is still okay. For this reason, Faras paid an extra 5 silver coins for the sanitation fee for each room.

Ryan and Allen lived together and looked at the simple room with two beds. The sheets on the bed were very old, but still clean.Inside the room there is a table that is missing a leg, a stone padded table and two chairs that seem to have been swayed and cannot sit on people at all.

Ryan didn’t feel good about it. For a room like this, it costs 1 gold coin for one night. This is robbing, oh no, it’s easier than robbing.

It was still early and it was impossible to sleep.The things in Ermida are too expensive, and Ryan and Allendo didn't plan to go shopping. Besides, they were basically slums and there was nothing to go shopping just now.

Elendo took out a few pieces of raw meat from his pocket and fed them to Wind Wolf. He touched the fur on them and communicated with them.This is what Allendo must do every day.

Ryan lay on the bed and looked at it for a while, feeling bored, put on a piece of clothing, opened the door and walked out.

Ryan walked along the corridor to a place without a roof.Looking at the location here, Ryan estimated that his downstairs was probably the hall where they ate, and it must have been specially set aside by the hotel for the residents to take a walk and rest.

Ryan looked up at the sky, and he found that there was still a sunset on the horizon.But along the way, the sky was always grey, and I thought it was cloudy today.

The setting sun on the horizon is about to set, and the sky is thickly covered by large black clouds.

The setting sun seemed unwilling to fall like this. It changed its colors stubbornly, turning yellow for a while and purple again, as if it wanted the world to prove its existence.

However, the thick dark clouds in the sky ignored them. They gathered together to obscure the setting sun.

The setting sun had no choice but to reluctantly emit its own light through the gaps in the dark clouds.

The ray of sunlight that this fluke revealed shone on the ground, on the roof, and on Ryan's body, but it made people unable to feel its warmth.

The setting sun also seemed to know this very well. It did not choose to continue struggling, but slowly fell weakly, letting the dark clouds around it slowly swallow it, and disappeared into the shadow of the sky bit by bit.

Ryan stood there, silently watching the sunset gradually disappear from his eyes, and his shadow was stretched very long by the lucky light of the sunset.

The lonely sunset gradually converged its brilliance, and was about to be submerged in the boundless dark clouds.

Suddenly the setting sun condensed into a huge blood-red ball, bursting out dazzling light to the earth, Ryan's eyes suddenly became bright, and his body seemed to suddenly feel warmth!

In the sky, a black crow flapped its wings lonely and uttered a cry of "Yeah, ah".The cry seemed to have pronounced the death penalty for the setting sun, and the dazzling light of the setting sun weakened weakly.The sunlight on the earth fades slowly like the ebb sea water, dissipating in the endless darkness.

When the last ray of sunlight disappeared from Ryan, it was dark.

Ryan stood motionless and witnessed it all.Somehow, Ryan suddenly thought of the innkeeper, the thin old man, and he couldn't help sighing.

Farasi's voice came from behind: "Ryan, don't you need to meditate? Why did you get here?"

Ryan turned around and saw Falasi changed into a purple dress instead of her red magician robe.Falasi who changed her clothes seemed to be a different person, showing a touch of charm.

Ryan couldn't help taking another look.

Falash's face was slightly red, and she asked Ryan, "Ryan, why are you sighing? Do you think of home?"

Ryan shook his head and replied, "No. I remembered what the innkeeper said just now, and I felt very uncomfortable."

Faras said, "Can you tell me?"

Ryan nodded and said, "I have lived with my parents since I was a child. I have never heard of anyone working hard to eat two meals, let alone seeing this scene from such a close distance today."

Faras comforted Ryan and said, "In fact, there are many things like this on this continent. My father racked his brains and can only make it happen in his city."

Ryan scratched his head and asked, "Faras, is your father also a city lord?"

Faras didn't want to talk more about her hunger, she quickly said, "No. Ryan, can you tell me about the tasks you have done?"

Ryan said, "If you want to listen, I will speak."

Ryan told Farasi about his experience from leaving his hometown and entering the mercenary union for the first time, all the way to Giethoorn.

Ryan's eloquence is not very good, but his simple language is more immersive.

When Faras heard the residents of Anceno cheering for his salvation, her face also showed a happy expression, as if she was the magician who was going to rescue them; when Faras heard that Ryan was scarred by the gang. During the siege, there was a nervous look on his face, his small hands clenched into fists, and he was almost about to cast magic on the non-existent bad guy; when Faras heard the rogue magician Weir read the last note, he finished With the powerful magic, when the righteous knight was about to be devastated, she finally couldn't help it. She grasped Ryan's hand and said hurriedly: "What's next? Come on, what happened?"

At this moment, footsteps came from across the corridor.

Faras saw her hand gripping Ryan's hand tightly, her face was flushed suddenly, she quickly let go of Ryan's hand, and stood alive.

Ryan was also embarrassed by Falash's behavior. In order to avoid the embarrassment between the two, he walked a few steps in the direction of the corridor, intending to see who came.

Reid's handsome face appeared in Ryan's sight. He was very happy to see Ryan and Faras both here, and said quickly, "Great. I'm looking for you two."

As soon as I said this, Reid saw Farras's face being flushed, and asked strangely: "Fanny, what's wrong with you? Your face is red? Isn't it uncomfortable?"

Falas waved her hand shyly and said, "It's annoying, I'm sleepy, so I go to bed first."

Reid said quickly: "Don't leave. This matter is very important. The three of us must negotiate together."

Farasi didn't look back, and hurried away.

Seeing Falasi left, Reid felt even more strange. He asked Ryan: "What happened to Falasi?"

Ryan was also embarrassed to bring up the matter just now. He concealed and said, "Well, maybe you feel sorry for the gold coins spent today?"

Reid scratched his head, feeling even more strange. He lowered his head and muttered to himself: "It makes no sense. Faras is not the kind of stingy person. Besides, in the imperial capital, I go to dream bars that are more expensive than this. Passed."

Ryan left Reid who was talking to himself and strode away.

Reid murmured for a long time, and then said to Ryan, "Ryan, what you said is wrong, Faras will not take this matter to heart. Could it be something else?"

Reid asked several times, but didn't hear what Ryan said. He raised his head and saw that Ryan didn't know where he was going. He shook his head and said, "Why are these two people weird today?"
