"Goodbye then, have a safe journey."

"We understand, Captain. Thank you for your help."

After the cargo ship left the port, Yaohui and the others set off early for Langye State. The captain bid farewell on the shore, feeling a little better as he watched the heroes leave, knowing that things would be much more troublesome there.

The cargo ship was traveling at a fast speed, which suited the adventurers' need to save time. The captain had instructed the crew on that ship to sail more steadily and to do his best to help them one last time.

As Yaohui and the others walked away, the captain's cheerful expression gradually turned cold. He turned his head and saw the Fishling Nest in the distance, which was now in the public eye, and a radical group that had gathered in even larger numbers than yesterday. They were about to go to the guild to start protesting again.

The world may be different, but mountains and rivers are connected. Entering the mountains from the water, you can quickly go from the vast plains to the mountain gorges. Driving from one mountain to another is like traveling to another world, with completely different scenery.

"You must be Mr. Yaohui, right? The other two are Mr. Sean and Miss Ajiu. The captain told us that you were also going to Langye Prefecture, so he gave you a ride along the way."

This is a fast cargo ship; it should reach Langye Prefecture by tonight. However, the ride might not be very comfortable. Considering you don't travel by boat often, would you like some seasickness medication as a precaution?

"We're fine. I have magic that can temporarily enhance a person's physique and help them resist a certain degree of seasickness. You can sail with peace of mind."

Yao Hui revealed his Courage Crystal to the team leader. The light energy magic on it could heal injuries and improve physical condition, acting as a kind of medicine.

"Magic is truly amazing. I apologize for disturbing you, sir."

The foreman bent down to take a closer look and thought that the people the captain had specifically instructed were indeed extraordinary. In addition, the hero had recently appeared at the port, so the foreman felt that these people must be related to the hero.

Leaning on the railing of the deck, Yao Hui enjoyed the river breeze blowing in his face. It was just past noon, and the sun was already bright, adding a touch of warmth to this quiet and peaceful place.

"Wow! You're the legendary hero? My goodness, I can't believe I'm actually seeing the hero in person!"

"Of course! The dimensional monsters that wreak havoc everywhere, and the earth shadow monsters that attacked Tsuchimori, weren't they all defeated by the hero? These are just legends, you haven't even seen the true power of the Giant of Light yet!"

Amidst the cheers of the crew, Ah Jiu launched into a long, eloquent tale, recounting the adventures of the hero and drawing everyone's attention. Everyone listened attentively, not daring to utter a single word.

"What's wrong? Has Ajiu gone mad again?"

"Huh? She had a seizure before? I thought she became like this because she was traumatized after being locked in the basement."

"In fact, Ajiu has already gone mad three times."

Yao Hui and Sean talked from a distance. Watching A Jiu gesticulating wildly among the crew, Yao Hui walked away without a second thought. Sean, however, was somewhat interested and wanted to hear what had happened between Yao Hui and A Jiu before their encounter.

"Look, that's the hero chosen by the Light Stone, a combat prodigy skilled in earth blessing magic. He once ventured alone into the mountains and forests. As a representative of the earth's will, he is brave and fearless. As the hero chosen by the Light Stone, he defeated powerful enemies..."

Wow~~ Oh~~

"What are you doing? You're just bragging, what's the point of dragging me into this?" Sean pulled Ah Jiu aside and interrupted her rambling. Sean himself didn't know he was that capable.

"You're upset that I praised you? Are you being dramatic?" Ah Jiu didn't have much patience for Sean either, and showed no intention of reflecting on her actions.

"Huh~~"

"No, no, I'm not that special, and I'm not being pretentious! Just take what Ajiu says as a joke, don't take me personally."

Sean's repeated explanations only fueled the crew's imaginations, and they all whispered among themselves, discussing various things.

As sunlight gradually penetrates the mountains and forests, even the sleepiest animals must get up and move around. They scratch with their claws, rub against tree bark, leave their nests, and head to the riverbanks to drink or play. While admiring the beauty of the distant rivers, they themselves become part of the scenery in the eyes of others.

"Alright, alright, Sean, there's no need to argue with Ah Jiu so much. Why not take the time to enjoy the scenery around us? We should make the most of this rare opportunity."

Yao Hui didn't know much about persuasion techniques, so he simply pulled Sean away to prevent him from saying anything strange to Ajiu.

"Um, you must be Mr. Haruki, right? You and Zeta defeated the dimensional monster and saved everyone, right?"

The sudden question made Haruki turn around to look at everyone. Several crew members came forward to ask the question, and Haruki saw admiration in their expressions, and it seemed that they also saw gratitude.

"I am Yaohui. Have we met before?"

"It really was you! I knew it! Oh, right, answer the question first. We haven't met you, but my parents saw you fighting the dimensional monster. They wrote to me about it. I'm so grateful to you for defeating and eliminating the monster that had been plaguing everyone for so long. Our whole family is very grateful for the hero's contribution!"

“My younger brother saw it too. He witnessed your transformation firsthand, and he told me that you saved everyone!”

"My wife and son saw it too. My son told me that if I could meet the hero in person, I would definitely want to get his autograph!"

"And my parents." "My daughter." "My brother." "You saved our whole family!"

……

Looking at the people in front of me, some are children, some are parents, some are brothers and sisters of distant relatives, and some are families protected by the light.

Seeing the joy and excitement on everyone's faces, Haruki and Zeta became even more determined in their journey to this other world. Their goal was not only to eliminate evil, but also to protect the hope of all living beings, just as they had when they first arrived here.

"Like I said, Sean, let's enjoy the peace and tranquility while we can. After all, peace is so fleeting and precious, so shouldn't we live in the beauty of the present moment?"

The ship continued sailing towards its distant destination, gradually approaching the end of this journey. After this journey ended, Haruki couldn't decide what path he would take, but at least while the journey was underway, Haruki could appreciate the scenery along the way with a tender heart.

As the sun rose high in the sky, the mountains were quiet at midday. The boat was moored at the shore, and the crew set up some basic cooking utensils to prepare meals for the entire crew.

With the addition of the heroes to their journey, every crew member maintained a high level of enthusiasm, eager to share their best dishes with their benefactors.

The affections and ties between humans were of no concern to Belial Twilight and Zeta. One ate the food on his plate, while the other stayed in the Pure Crystal of Courage, basking in the sun, far from the sounds and words of humans, enjoying the beautiful scenery.

"Wow, what a huge watermelon! This is the first time I've ever seen such a big watermelon! Mmm, it's so sweet and delicious!"

"Huh? Watermelons are rare over there, aren't they? You'd better eat a lot then. Don't worry, we have plenty here!"

Haruki was enjoying his watermelon with great relish, and his satisfied expression caught the attention of Belial Twilight. So Belial Twilight picked up a watermelon and decided to try it too.

“In the country where Yaohui lives, the production of watermelons is indeed not high. Watermelons are considered an expensive fruit. I have heard Yaohui say several times that he wants to eat watermelons.”

"What?! It tastes so good? I really don't understand what humans taste like?"

Zeta stared blankly at Belial Twilight, who had already eaten half a watermelon. For a moment, she didn't know how to comment on the half-eaten watermelon. It really was half-eaten, with not even a rind left.

It wasn't until more people were looking at him that Belial Twilight realized something was wrong. "What's wrong? A bunch of stingy people. I'm just eating a melon from you guys, why are you all staring at me!"

"Um, Belial-san, you can't eat the watermelon rind... Humans usually only eat the red flesh inside."

Beria was stunned after hearing this, and the half-eaten melon rind fell out of his mouth and landed on the ground with a thud.
