Conan: I'm just an ordinary novelist

When the other party saw him, he seemed very surprised.

That icy face that seemed unchanging for thousands of years to others suddenly revealed a smile that was bright enough to rival the sun.

[“Little Cloud!”]

Thinking of the disbelieving expressions on the faces of his teammates, Yun Xianhe couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Chu Ziye, who was standing aside, looked at Yun Xianhe who suddenly laughed, and scratched the back of his head:

“Isn’t it amazing?”

The brave man, with a smile on his face, shook his head slightly, his gentle tone full of determination:

“No, he’s awesome.”

"How powerful?"

Yun Xianhe rubbed his chin and said to Chu Ziye in a low voice:

"He was ranked second in the overall ranking of adventurers that year."

Hearing this, Chu Ziye widened his eyes in disbelief, his mouth half open, and he even trembled a little:

"So powerful?! Let me see your knife!"

"Here."

Chu Ziye rubbed the sweat on his palms on the corner of his clothes, took the knife from Yun Xianhe's hand with a very pious expression, and looked it up and down.

After looking closely, this knife looks more like his.

Hiss——He actually has the same style as the big boss.

Chu Ziye studied the scratches on the knife carefully again.

It can be seen that this knife must have killed many monsters.

After weighing it in my hand, I suddenly felt that this knife was very smooth to use!

Damn it! Why didn't any big boss give him a knife?

Chu Ziye reluctantly handed the knife back to Yun Xianhe, trying not to look at the knife:

"Where is that boss now?"

"Now—"

Yun Xianhe put away his weapon and looked at the future No. 2 on the list beside him and chuckled:

"Don't tell you."

"…Why?"

"Please invite the winner to come on stage to receive the medal!"

The host on the side narrated the process conscientiously.

Yun Xianhe patted Chu Ziye on the shoulder and walked towards the podium.

Flowers, applause, cheers, and congratulations from friends.

"congratulations!"

"Happy together."

Yun Xianhe rubbed Hongshu's head, took the bouquet of flowers presented by the waiter, and let the lord of Shangshi City put the warrior badge on him.

His fingertips gently stroked the corners of the badge, and he murmured softly:

"the third time……"

"what?"

"nothing."

The winner of the warrior competition can choose a treasure from the city lord's treasury to take away.

Of course, you can also choose to go to Central City for a recommendation letter, etc.

Hiroki listened to the other party's words and let out a long exclamation.

Finally he took the third odd-shaped key fragment and the matching letter paper in the corner.

"What do you choose?"

Yun Xianhe turned around and said to the city lord:

"I want a letter of recommendation for Central City Shanhai University."

"Oh? Sure, but warrior, you need to tell me your current school and other information."

Hearing the city lord's words, Yun Xianhe shook his head:

"That letter wasn't for me."

Upon hearing this, the old city lord raised his eyebrows and raised his hand to twitch his long beard:

"If it is a gift to someone else, we need to conduct another assessment."

"You also know this person."

"Oh? Could it be that... you are talking about the kid from the Chu family?"

Yun Xianhe nodded:

"I think Ziye should be able to pass the test, right?"

"Hahaha, of course."

In fact, if it weren’t for Yun Xianhe, the dark horse who suddenly emerged, this year’s warrior would definitely be Chu Ziye.

The old city lord was quite happy, and asked Yun Xianhe to choose something from his treasure house.

This time, Yun Xianhe took a necklace made of star stone and gave it to Hongshu.

"Lord City Lord, please wait until I leave Shangshi City before giving the recommendation letter to Chu Ziye."

"Hmm? I understand. This is what you young people call a surprise, right? Good!"

The brave man smiled meaningfully and did not explain too much.

Hongshu, who was standing by, always felt that there was something wrong with Yun Xianhe's smile, but he didn't say anything.

The Warriors competition came to an end, and Shangshi City returned to its previous operating mode.

city ​​gate,

Leng Liming grabbed Hongshu's sleeve and cried loudly, sobbing and saying that she didn't want to let the other person go.

"Wuwuwu... An An, you have to remember me. When you grow up, remember to come back and participate in the warrior selection... Wuwa - I don't want you to leave! Why don't you take me with you! Wuwuwu!"

"This, doesn't seem to work..."

"Why?! Wuuuu! Brother, why don't we just go traveling with An An and the others!"

Leng Chaoyang, who was standing aside, twitched his lips. He was having a headache because of the other person's crying, so he simply turned around and didn't look at her.

"Ooooooooo! Damn it! I want to go on a trip too!"

"Ha ha……"

Hiroki smiled wryly.

This is your purpose.

Compared to the kids, Yun Xianhe and Chu Ziye are very harmonious.

After confirming that Yun Xianhe had brought enough food, Chu Ziye carefully reminded him:

"You must take the main roads with protective formations, don't take the small roads. And don't set foot in areas that are only open to adventurers. Do you hear me? It's only two years. Wait until you get the adventurer's certificate before you go."

The brave man listened to the other party's mumbling with a faint smile, responding from time to time, without showing any impatience at all.

Chu Ziye froze when he accidentally realized that he had said a little too much.

He coughed to cover up his cough, then turned around and handed two rolls of martial arts bandages to Yun Xianhe.

"I noticed yesterday that the bandage on your knife was a little worn. It looks like it's the same brand as the one I usually use. Remember to change it and take good care of it."

The brave man who received the parting gift clenched his fingers and responded softly:

"it is good."

"You don't have any gift for me? Why do you act like a heartless person?"

Chu Ziye frowned and smiled with a teasing tone, then raised his hand and lightly tapped Yun Xianhe's shoulder.

The latter was amused by his words, coughed twice, and said seriously:

"I left your gift with the old city lord."

"Hmm? Selected from the city lord's treasury?"

"Uh-huh, I hope you like it."

Chu Ziye rubbed his chin when he heard this.

He had been to the city lord's treasury once when he was a child. There were a lot of things in it, including many top-quality swords.

Could it be that Yun Xianhe chose a knife to give to him?

Chu Ziye's eyes lit up when he thought of this, then he frowned and looked at Yun Xianhe:

"Why don't you choose something nice for yourself?"

The brave man who already possessed countless treasures shrugged:

"I don't need any of those things, and the master has a lot of treasures."

Thinking of Bai Yuesheng's family background, Chu Ziye nodded seriously:

"You're right. What did you choose for me?"

Yun Xianhe squinted his eyes and smiled:

"Good stuff, absolutely great treasure."

"Really? Wow - it's not really a precious sword or something like that, is it?"

Chu Ziye was already getting impatient.

The brave man at the side smiled maliciously.

I hope that the leader of our future second largest adventure group will like that ticket to the ocean of knowledge.
