After looking through it many times, the farming mission actually appeared in the city construction column.

This was very confusing. At first, Joshua thought that this mission would appear in food and government affairs.

Choosing two H-level missions, Joshua clicked on the pentagram behind him and accepted the mission.

[Congratulations host for accepting the farming mission. The mission completion condition requirement is 50 livestock. The completion reward is a complete beginner farming tool creation method. You will also earn 50 attribute points and 50 platinum coins.]

[Congratulations host for accepting the farming mission. The mission completion requirement is five farms. The completion reward is a complete beginner farming tool creation method, 50 attribute points, and 50 platinum coins.]

Looking at the two missions in front of him, Joshua was filled with confidence!

Thus, he went straight to Alger’s workshop and asked him about the construction and location of the farming land.

Ever since the village’s construction was completed, Alger did not set up his workshop in the village.

Instead, he set it up in a jungle a few hundred meters away from the village.

When he came to a place not far from the workshop, he could hear the Alger couple from afar.

The person who was angry this time seemed to be Alger. “I told you not to use them for your own personal use!”

“How could you take these things that I made and secretly use them for yourself in your room?”

“Hmph! This is all your fault. During this period of time, you’ve been busy with your own matters and haven’t had time to bother with mine! I sleep alone every night. No matter what, I’m still a woman. You, a man, throw your wife aside every day. I can only use these things to comfort myself!”

Hearing the two of them arguing, Joshua had no way to intervene this time. He could only quietly detour from the side and leave the workshop.

“Looks like I’ll have to come back some other day. Today is not a day suitable for discussing matters!”

Because the Alger’s residence was not far away from Alexia, Joshua decided to visit her.

But this time, Joshua was very hesitant. He couldn’t just simply wave out the bottle in his hand.

That was because once Alexia consumed it, she would indeed transform but it would also come with a very serious side effect. 

Once the potion was used, the other party would go into heat…

So now, Joshua was very conflicted. Where could he find another dragon to solve Alexia’s physiological problem afterward!

Moreover, Alexia was raised by him. He could not bear to see such a scene if he brought another dragon over for her.

Therefore, he was very hesitant at the moment. Should he give this potion to Alexia?

After contemplating it deeply, he unknowingly walked to Alexia’s side.

She raised her head and looked at Joshua. When she saw the potion in his hand, she said happily, “Joshua, you’ve found something that can make me smaller, right?”

The Alexia in front of Joshua had become even taller and bigger than before.

If this continued, she would almost become a mountain.

With no other choice, Joshua could only pass the potion in his hand to Alexia.

“This potion can transform you into a human but it has some minor side effects!”

Joshua told Alexia about the potion’s side effects.

After hearing what Joshua said, Alexia seemed to be a little shy. Then, she secretly transmitted her voice to Joshua.

“I only like Joshua so don’t worry. I’ll think of a way to solve this problem on my own!”

After the two of them finished their discussion, Joshua threw the potion into Alexia’s mouth.

After she gently swallowed a few times, a burst of light suddenly shot through the sky. Then, the huge Alexia suddenly became smaller.

When she was the size of a human, the white light that shone around her began to transform into a cocoon.

After waiting for a while nearby, Joshua discovered a problem. The cocoon in front of him would not break open.

Because of this, he opened the system to check Alexia’s status and found that it would take another month for the cocoon to break open.

This made Joshua let out a sigh of relief.

“Fortunately, she’ll just be like this for a month. If something were to happen to her right in front of me, I wouldn’t have been able to help her!”

Joshua pushed the cocoon in front of him a little and found that he could actually carry it easily.

As such, he carried the cocoon that was about the same size as himself back home.

After Alexia had finished shrinking to a human size, the cocoon had finally become much smaller. 

He planned to have a good rest but there was no time for such a thing.

Lena, who had been silent for a long time, had specially changed into a light, long dress and came to his room today.

“Mayor Joshua, can you take me out for a walk today?”

Lena had wanted to go out with Joshua for a long time but had been delayed due to her busy schedule.

Today, Joshua finally had some free time, so Lena took the opportunity to invite him.

Of course, it was Joshua’s duty to accept an invitation from a woman, especially one that he had slept with. 

After changing into ordinary clothes, the two of them wandered around the village.

They followed the village all the way to the West, where the new village was being developed.

Myrna took Joshua around the village and went straight to a small river not far from where they were.

Then she laid the cloth that she had prepared on the ground and took out some food from the basket.

The two of them sat down under a small tree by the river and prepared for a picnic!

The scenery there was very beautiful. They were still surrounded by a primitive forest. There were all kinds of birds and small animals everywhere.

The two of them sat side by side.

Because the atmosphere was a little tense, the two of them accidentally leaned into each other and touched hands, jolting as if they had been electrocuted.

However, Joshua was a man, so he took the initiative and grabbed Lena’s hand.

He wanted them to sit peacefully under the tree and enjoy the peaceful scenery. 

Lena, whose hand was being held by Joshua, said in his ear, “You’ve been holding my hand. Aren’t you going to do anything?”

The corners of Joshua’s mouth curled up into a smile as he immediately hugged Lena and kissed her.

After their lips parted, Joshua said to Lena, “In the past, I was not qualified to love others. My life was dull and tasteless. It was not until I arrived here that I realized my life could become so beautiful!”

Joshua was talking about his past on Earth, not about this world.

However, Lena mistakenly thought that he was talking about his past in the Imperial City.

“Don’t you plan to go back to the Imperial City?”

Joshua shook his head before nodding with uncertainty. “I don’t know either. Maybe I’ll live a better life if I stay in Puba forever!”

“If you don’t plan to go back, I’ll stay here with you! Although my family is very weak and I don’t have the qualifications to be your wife, the situation is different now. After leaving the Empire, we are no longer restricted by these things. Therefore, can I fall in love with you?”

Joshua gently stroked Lena’s head and said, “Of course you can!”
