Chapter 4

Night.

Anna's grandfather had only one arm and one eye, but even so, he was one of the luckiest hunters.

Few hunters can live to this age. Most of them, like Leiluo's father, eventually die of their own prey. After all, the difference between beast and Warcraft is too great. Ordinary hunters are just two legged beasts in front of Warcraft.

Anna's father was an honest farmer who cultivated land for the Baron in the town, while her mother was a housewife who did some sewing to subsidize her family.

In the light of the fire, Anna held the soup basin and seemed to know the next topic. She kept shyly bowing her head and didn't speak.

"Come, Ralo, eat more. Only when you are full can you have more strength to dedicate to the God of light."

Grandpa Anna smiled and removed his usual dignity. It can be seen that he really likes Ralo, or because of Ralo's father.

"Grandpa, I'm really full."

This is the third time Leiluo explained, but smiled.

Grandpa Anna looked down and remained silent. Anna looked at Leiluo again and said slowly, "Leiluo, have you really decided to serve the great God of light all your life? Oh, don't get me wrong, grandpa is also a loyal believer of the God of light, but... Serving the God of light, you can also choose to become a knight of light. After all, a knight of light can get married and have children."

Leiluo understood grandpa's meaning and whispered, "because of my mother's dystocia, my body is difficult to meet the conditions of light knight."

A look of disappointment.

"Oh, what a pity. If Anna could be with you, I would be relieved."

Grandpa sighed and said no more.

Leiluo glanced at Anna secretly, saw the fire shining on Anna's freckled cheeks, and saw her shy and lost eyes looking at herself. Leiluo couldn't help recalling the innocence and no guess between the two.

If you are not a descendant of a wizard, if you can become a knight of light, live here with her all your life and be pure and happy forever.

Thinking of this, Leiluo covered up his inner loss and sadness, showed a satisfied smile on his face, and said excitedly: "thank God! Just yesterday, I got the special grace of the church and decided to let me go to a remote town named Sophie to spread the light of the Lord as a trainee missionary. I can finally devote my life to the Lord!"

"Ah!"

When the people around the stove heard Leiluo say so, they all showed surprise expressions. Even Anna sincerely blessed and prayed in her inner loss.

……

half a month later.

Ice and snow melt and everything recovers.

The snow water gathered in the agate Lake in the small town, and the blue waves reflected the twigs and new buds on the lake. People stepped on the muddy land and began the new year's work. They listened to the bells of distant churches in the fields, prayed for a bumper harvest this year in the mountains and fields, and did their best to praise the God of light.

Although life is poor and tired, people are very easy to be satisfied, and a simple smile appears on their tired faces.

Leiluo stood in the street, carrying a wooden suitcase, looked back and finally looked at the agate lake town. His lingering color gradually turned to resolute.

"Father, mother, I'm gone!"

Leiluo turned and left resolutely.

Walking on the muddy road, Leiluo's eyes are slightly red. He will abandon everything he is familiar with and embark on an unknown journey. He doesn't know when he will come back. Maybe he will never come back again.

The leather shoes went forward along the mud mark pressed out by the carriage wheel, but it was inevitable that the mud splashed and ruined the clothes. My father said that along this road, you will go through the magic Eagle forest to St. granburg, the capital of the Principality of Gran.

In agate Lake Town, no one noticed that the boy who was determined to become a missionary left silently. He was insignificant to the town. Maybe only when the qualification evaluation next year, the priest would think of the believer who had been around him in previous years. He wondered why he didn't appear this year.

It took nearly two hourglass hours.

Gradually, farmland was replaced by shrubs.

Looking around, I can no longer see people. In the distance, the tall trees are green, and there are a few bat rats jumping through the forest.

Further ahead is the magic Eagle deep forest, the destination of the town hunter.

It is said that in the depths of the magic Eagle forest, there are a group of extremely terrible magic eagles. All the prey watched by these magic eagles will freeze their souls and be hunted by them. No one can escape from its claws.

In addition, there are other unimaginable terrible creatures in the depths of the forest. All kinds of monsters and Warcraft are everywhere. Only some powerful mercenaries will try to explore deeply and look for opportunities to make a fortune.

Fortunately, this road only passes through the edge of the demon Eagle forest. Caravans often pass by. Generally speaking, there will be no Warcraft. At most, it is just ordinary beasts.

After the initial short loss, Leiluo is close to the Warcraft forest, which has exceeded the farthest place Leiluo has ever explored. In his heart, it seems that a trace of inexplicable excitement suddenly appears?

It seems that the cells that have been sleeping for more than ten years are cheering, excited that they are about to get rid of the boring and monotonous town life, excited about the new life that is about to begin, eager to explore everything unknown outside and see the vast world outside.

Leiluo's steps seemed to become brisk.

Now think about it. For many years, I have been devout and faithful to the God of light. My initial ideal is not to leave the town and go to an unknown place I have never been as a missionary?

"Hey, hey, hey..."

In front of the dirt road, the cries of several men came from afar.

In surprise, Leiluo stepped up a little. After passing through the small bush in front, several men carrying a fat black boar prey came head-on towards Leiluo and rushed back to town.

Leiluo didn't know these people. They should be hunters from nearby villages. The hunters were smiling because of the harvest. When they saw Leiluo, they greeted him from a distance.

"Little fellow, go into the woods alone?"

He was a rough man with a full beard, a full head taller than Ralo. He stopped to have a rest during the greeting time and wiped the sweat on his forehead.

The other two hunters sat by the wild boar, lit the cigarette pole, took out the dried meat and chewed it.

"I've been so fat all winter!"

Leiluo looked at the black boar, flattered and replied, "well, I'm going to St. granburg."

"Ha ha, thanks to the care of the God of light, we were lucky to capture this big guy. We were going to carry this guy to the church first and dedicate his fattest thigh to the priest!"

Hearing the word "God of light", the two hunters who were resting hurriedly made a prayer gesture for fear that their disrespect would lose their good luck. Leiluo also hurried to make a prayer appearance.

Is it really because of the favor of the God of light?

Will God of light really remember the self dedication of every believer?

After laughing, the beard Hunter looked at Leiluo's thin body, frowned and told: "although this road only passes through the edge of the forest, there are generally no Warcraft, but the wandering beasts are also dangerous. After a long winter, the beasts have come out to look for food. You should be careful alone."

As soon as he left the town, he met a simple and kind-hearted hunter. Leiluo warmed up and said, "it doesn't matter. I brought some veterinary drugs."

The so-called veterinary medicine is the local dialect of hunters in agate town. It is made from the excrement of Warcraft into powder. The smell of beasts is very sensitive. Hunters often sprinkle some around when they rest in the forest to prevent danger.

Hearing that Leiluo had brought veterinary medicine, the bearded man grinned and said nothing more.

After saying goodbye to these people, Leiluo continued to walk forward. After a while, he really walked into the magic Eagle forest, and there were few people.
