Chapter 32 Harvest
The space gradually crumbled, and the headless puppets piled on the ground disappeared. The narrow corridor was silent, and through the wooden doors, Yaro could faintly hear the soft breathing sounds from different rooms.

Finally home.

Yaro took a deep breath, stopped the Knight's Breathing Technique, stepped through the broken door, and returned to his room.

In the room, the faint candlelight flickered slowly. Yaro looked at the wooden bed, which was still in its original place, with even the marks left by the previous sleeper still clearly visible.

Picking up the scabbard from the ground, Yaro looked up at the row of wooden planks. Faint starlight shone through the cracks in the wood, and a cool, refreshing breeze blew in.

Yaro casually picked up a plank and looked up into the distance.

The sky was filled with stars, and the large, round moon hung in the center of the sky.

The night is still long.

There wasn't a single drop of water on the ground, but the air carried a faint, damp scent.

It must have rained lightly for a while just now.

With a refreshing breeze blowing, listening to the soft chirping of insects, and gazing at the twinkling starry sky, everything around Yaro felt incredibly comfortable.

Sleepiness returned.

Yaro lay back down on the bed, then suddenly remembered something. With a slight thought, the system page appeared before his eyes.

[Ding! Defeat the enemy and gain 186 skill experience points.]

[Ding! Defeat the enemy and gain 145 skill experience points with the uppercut]

……

[Converted into personal experience, personal experience points increased by 1665]

[Remaining skill points: 15]

[Personal Level: LV16: 1941/20000]

……

It directly adds over 1,600 experience points?
As Yaro thought of Monri, who had been carried back by the black cat, a sense of greed arose in his heart.

If I go in a few more times, wouldn't my 20,000 experience bar fill up quickly?

However, the various things in the strange space cannot be generated indefinitely, and the puppet in that space also needs a certain amount of time to recover.

A dangerous thought suddenly popped into Yaro's mind.

Since he'll be imprisoned anyway, why not... just imprison him myself?

Yaro patted his head and warned himself in his heart.

What are you thinking!

The body is a Bodhi tree, the mind a clear mirror stand; constantly wipe it clean, lest it be covered with dust!
No matter how things change, you are first and foremost a human being!
This world is full of strange things and countless magical items. Don't have dangerous thoughts just because you see something on someone else that you need!
Never forget your true self!

But even if I were lucky enough to time travel, I probably wouldn't become the protagonist in a storybook.
Yaro kicked the blanket, pulled his whole body under it, and then grabbed the blanket to cover his head.

Sleep, sleep!
……

early morning.

Yaro got up early and played with a wooden ball. Led by the black cat, he found Monri's room and saw the little boy curled up on the floor in a corner of the room.

Looking at the boy who was full of vigor yesterday, now looking lifeless, Yaro couldn't help but sigh. He walked over, squatted down, and whispered, "I told you yesterday not to say anything more."

These words were both a lament for the passing of this promising young man and a declaration of one's own identity.

Monri slowly raised his head, revealing empty, dark eyes, his lips trembling slightly: "Is it... Mr. Yaro?"

"Well, it's me."

“Mr. Yarrow, why did you tell me to stop talking yesterday? You…” Monri asked hesitantly, “Do you know something?”

Yaro had no intention of hiding what he knew; his goal was to infiltrate the youths, and now, there was no better way to break in than through Monri.

Do you remember what I said yesterday, 'If you don't know, you're not here'?

This principle can now be stated clearly, after all... Yaro has also come to enjoy the feeling of entering the strange space.

It's a pity that even if I told them, it would be difficult to re-enter that eerie space from last night in a short period of time.

"Anyone with decent aptitude and sufficient mental strength can sense the strange space; however, the more one knows, the easier it is to accidentally wander into it."

"Because you've been there before, every time you talk about it, you're recalling the details of that eerie space, and there's always the possibility of you being there again. You were luckier in the past, but this time..."

There were some things Yaro didn't say.

The fact that Monri will re-enter this strange space may also be related to him.

“Hehe…” Mengli gave a dry, expressionless laugh. “So that’s how it is. No wonder… you walked so fast yesterday.”

"Judging from your clothes yesterday, you must come from a wizarding family, right? Was the big black cat I saw before I fainted yesterday the one next to you?"

Yaro hesitated. His mother had long ago instructed him not to reveal his relationship with her, so the black cat teacher would only accompany him to the open space in front of the port today, after which it would return to its mother's side.

So at this moment, Yarrow didn't know how to answer.

However, sometimes, silence itself is an answer.

"Thank you!"

Hearing Monri's inexplicable thanks, Yaro glanced at the black cat beside him.

Did Teacher Gemma save him yesterday? Yaro asked curiously, "What are you thanking me for?"

"Shouldn't I be thanking you now that I'm still alive?"

Mengli thought it was Teacher Black Cat who led him out of the eerie space?

"Um... I guess so."

In a way, his words of thanks weren't wrong. Without Teacher Gemma, who knows what might have happened to him after he fell into a coma.

"Now it's me, have I become a monster?"

Monri lifted his leg, which had turned into a stick, and tentatively touched his empty eyes.

To prevent Monri from giving up on the open space in front of the port, Yaro quickly said, "Then you should board the ship now. Wizards have all sorts of magical abilities, and they might be able to restore you to your original state."

After finally persuading Monri, Yaro found him a bandage, simply wrapped it around the terrifying dark eyes on his face, and then helped him out of the room.

Upon entering the lobby, Yaro first approached the middle-aged bartender at the front desk, briefly explained that the wooden door was damaged, and left some coins, thus successfully resolving the matter.

Then we ordered some simple breakfast and ate while waiting for the little girl Emily to arrive.

She had made an agreement with Yaro last night, and Yaro, in order to blend into the crowd, couldn't refuse. Although there was a better alternative, Monri, to take her place, he couldn't go back on his promise.

Emily arrived much later than expected, and after seeing her haphazardly dressed clothes, Yaro began to speculate as to why she was so late.

Is there really a ten-year-old who can't dress himself?

If she goes to study at a wizarding school alone, won't she starve to death on the way?
Noticing Yaro's gaze, Emily blushed and quickly explained, "I can wear my usual casual clothes, but I need a maid's help to put on this dress!"

If you know it's not a good outfit to wear alone, why would you choose to go out in this outfit?

Yaro said no more and simply said, "Alright, let's hurry over there. We don't want them all to have boarded the ship and left before we've arrived."

Emily quickly replied, "No, I checked from the balcony, and the wizard hasn't come down yet."

That's for sure. The wizard who conducted the assessment was my mother. If I didn't make it, how could she have come down?
Ignoring Emily's expression, Yaro helped Monri to her feet and walked outside.

It was only then that Emily noticed Monri's unusual behavior. She caught up with him in a few steps and asked, "Monri, what's wrong? Can't you see clearly? Why is your eye wrapped in cloth? What happened to your foot?"

Although one of Marilyn's legs had turned into a wooden stick, it was covered by his pants, so most people wouldn't notice the difference; it just made walking a little inconvenient.

Neither Aro nor Emily responded to Emily's questioning.

Seeing that neither of them paid any attention to her, Emily felt a little embarrassed, and the three of them walked silently toward the port.

At this moment, Yaro suddenly noticed that there were several burly, tall men quietly following behind them. However, they did not make any aggressive moves, and it seemed that they were protecting them.

So Emily didn't come alone after all?
Is there a knight protecting them in the shadows?

Why not bring a maid?

These thoughts were quickly put aside by Yaro; what did she think, and what did it have to do with him?

By this time, many young men had gathered on the dock. Many of the richly dressed young men hid in the shadow of the large ship, complaining and muttering to each other. On the wide open space of the dock, many young men in hemp clothing gathered uneasily under the scorching sun.

As soon as Yaro approached the open space in front of the dock, the wooden ladder on the large ship was lowered, and Nicole, carrying the black cat that had disappeared sometime earlier, calmly walked down.

"Quiet!"

Those two simple words instantly created a sense of oppression in all the boys, causing them to unconsciously stop talking.

"Start the testing now."

Nicole looked around and then at Yaro, whose clothes were somewhat similar to her own.

"what's your name?"

Yaro pretended not to know, released Monri, and bowed respectfully: "My name is Yaro Gana."

Ghana family?

Which noble family is that?

The richly dressed youths couldn't help but look at Yaro with curiosity, but after noticing the boy in hemp clothing that he was supporting, a hint of disdain flashed in their eyes.

So he's just a commoner. He actually dressed like a wizard, which caught the wizard's attention. What a lucky kid.

"You go first."

Yaro pointed at Monri and said, "Honorable Wizard, may I test with my brother? His movements are not very convenient."

As soon as Yaro finished speaking, a noble boy jumped out, pointed at Yaro, and cursed, "Who do you think you are, daring to negotiate with the wizard? Wizard, this kind of person who doesn't know his place should be kicked out!"

Looking at his righteous and stern expression, Yaro almost burst out laughing.

You've really messed up your attempt to flatter him!
Nicole frowned slightly and stared at her.

"Shut up!"

The nobleman boy turned pale instantly and sat down on the ground with a thud.

Judging from his expression alone, Yaro knew that this unfortunate noble boy must have been subjected to a mental pressure attack, but he didn't know how much power his mother had used.

Nicole coldly said to Yaro, "Then come over here together, let's start with the two of you."

"Thank you for your understanding, Wizard!"
