Chapter 133 (2/2)

…

“Brother…” Madam Mar sobbed. Old Mar held her tightly against his chest. This chaotic age, filled with chaotic people and their chaotic convictions. When will it end?

…

Rica’s General Store.

“Bro, Granny Rica’s got so many new goods!” Zhang ZhengXiong smiled.

Ye Cang faintly smiled back. He bought some good arrows, and gifted her a leg from the monstrous bird boss. Rica was very moved, they would always treat her and Jessie well when they visited. She hesitated for a bit before saying: “I’m getting old, but Jessie is still so young. When I pass on, could you take him with you to explore the continent. This is also his dream. If you were with him, I’d feel a lot more at ease…”

Ye Cang looked at the sleeping Jessie and interrupted her. “Granny Rica, what he needs now isn’t to leave, but to stay by your side. As for exploring the continent, that’s a decision he can make when he grows up…”

“Bro, let’s do this. Once we leave, they can both join us.” Zhang ZhengXiong said with a carefree smile.

“Is that possible? We’re not even sure how we’ll be leaving.” Ye Cang frowned. Little Ye Tian also thought the same. Although she didn’t know Rica or Jessie very well, but she knew her father cared a lot about Rica. It was likely because she reminded him of the Granny that had raised him. She chose to remain silently and just observe.

“If it’s with you all, I wouldn’t mind…” Rica smiled kindly.

“The General Store’s Rica wants to become your follower. Will you accept?”

Ye Cang looked at Rica and the sleeping Jessie with a complicated expression.

“If they become our followers, they’d be able to follow us no matter how we leave. It was the same in the previous games. Moreover, once we reach a big city, if we get a store, we’d need to hire NPCs to run it. However, if we have these two, then it is no longer an issue. It’s killing two birds with one stone.” Little Ye Tian whispered in Ye Cang’s ear.

Ye Cang slowly nodded. “Alright then.”
