I'm also trying to survive today [Western Fantasy]

Every day, the farm tool workshop continuously delivers new farm tools to the shops in Monk City. Those merchants who heard the rumors traveled thousands of miles to buy goods here.

Because of Julian's contribution, Sirius and the people of the Church of the Holy Light liked him very much, and the two sides tacitly left the territory near the Gray Tower Valley to him for distribution, which naturally included those small island countries nearby.

Regardless of the inconspicuous agricultural tools, the daily shipments are quite large. Nearly half of the goblins who have invested in him are currently working in the agricultural tool workshop. They produce a large number of agricultural tools every day, and three meals are provided by the cafeteria. , I can still get my salary and nearly every month, not to mention how wonderful life is.

Then one day, when Julian passed by, he found a goblin worker who was dirty. He built a bathhouse on a whim, and took a comfortable hot bath after work every day. The group of goblins I feel like I am living in heaven, and I am more and more devoted to Julian.

The Gray Tower Restaurant in Monk City has also become a gold-absorbing weapon, and the daily turnover is astonishing. Even Owen was taken aback when he saw the account book for the first time. He really never thought that a restaurant could also There is so much income.

Everything was on the right track, and Julian started to practice again.

The battle with Anthony once again aroused his sense of crisis, and he always felt that his current strength was not very safe. Although Owen had taken all the responsibilities in the past, he had to consider the consequences once things were exposed.

It's not that he doesn't believe in Owen, but that at the gate of the city that day, many people saw him leaving with Anthony. Who can guarantee that the necromancer won't find him?If he came, how would I face it?

Julian considered a lot. Apart from enhancing his own strength, the most convenient thing he could get now was undoubtedly this unfinished magic tower.

Therefore, he is willing to cooperate with Mabel. First, he can take the caravan in his own territory to go out, and second, he can also use the other party's contacts to collect those magic materials as soon as possible.

Facts have proved that his choice is correct, Mabel is a shrewd businessman, but also an honest businessman. Lian reached an agreement and sent him the three magic materials he lacked that night.

While being taken aback, Julian also realized the reliability of his partner. In a happy mood, he sent a pig there the next day as a gift in return.

Mabel: ...

Compared with Mabel's speechless, the shopkeeper of her restaurant is grinning from ear to ear. Now who doesn't know that the pork in Huita Restaurant is delicious, and now they have such delicious pork. He didn't believe that with his chef's skills, he would be inferior to those goblins!

The cooperation between the two parties was carried out very smoothly, and immediately shocked many people's eyes. Some people with malicious intentions secretly waited for the two of them to meet each other. They cooperated directly, which made them feel bored.

Mabel has a very high wrist and has different attitudes towards different people. In front of those bullying guys, she is the mistress of Grand Duke Leslie, but in front of Julian, she is just a woman doing business.

If it hadn't been for the fact that beauty is useless, she actually wanted to make herself a weak, pitiful, and helpless woman. After all, in the eyes of all men, such a poor woman can always win more pity, and use this Get more benefits.

It's a pity that Julian didn't like this, so after she realized that His Excellency Owen's eyes on her had become dangerous, she resolutely restored the persona of a shrewd and strong woman, and stopped playing any tricks.

In the blink of an eye, another three months passed. Unknowingly, it has been more than a year since Julian came to the Gray Tower Valley. Last month, Ulysses finally dealt with all the matters related to the cult. His loyal bodyguard left.

It's just that for some reason, when he left, his complexion was not very good, gloomy. On the other hand, although his guard was also pale, there was an inexplicable strange smile on the corner of his mouth.

Julian happened to come to Monk City that day, and met their team at the gate of the city. He rode his horse and stopped on the side of the road quietly, without going up to say hello. For this amazingly beautiful but cruel Ulysses, He always has a feeling of respect and distance.

Although Julian purposely chose an inconspicuous location, Owen's radar was always able to find him immediately. After sending Ulysses away, Owen came to Julian and returned to the church with him.

When Ulysses left this time, the priest of Monk City also left. Owen only vaguely noticed that there seemed to be something wrong with the priest, but before he could investigate further, Ulysses took the initiative Afterwards, I don’t know what kind of deal the priest and Ulysses made. On the way back to the holy city, the priest was not imprisoned. left with him.

Owen didn't express any opinion on this. He had told Roland about this matter, but Bishop Roland indicated that this matter had been reported to the higher authorities, and told him not to worry about it.

Owen is also used to not meddling in other people's business, so even if the officiant's behavior was slightly against the rules, he would pretend that he didn't see it.

After the two of them entered the city, Julian first went to the shop selling agricultural tools. Since it was the season of spring plowing, many merchants were queuing up at the door, hoping to buy new agricultural tools faster and transport them back to make a fortune. Pen.

The workshop in the territory was working almost day and night, even so, it barely met the needs of the shop.

The business here is so booming, it is impossible to say that no one is jealous, and some people secretly sell imitation farm tools secretly. As a result, Owen, who got the news, took all the workers in the workshop with him. .

After he finished serving, he also accused those who secretly made farm tools for being so courageous, even daring to imitate the things of the church, he was really impatient to live.

Of course, Owen's original words must have been more tactful, but no matter how tactful they were, the meaning was the same. This immediately made those few nobles who united and thought they could make a fortune by ignoring Julian half dead.

Who doesn't know that the church here in Monk City doesn't sell any farm tools at all, even if they dig the corner of the wall, they are digging the corner of Julian's wall.

Aren't you, Owen, trying to stand out for Julian? Who doesn't know that!

Owen said: Yes, so what if I stand out for Julian?Come and refute me if you have the ability!

Unreasonable nobles: ...

Suffering silently, this group of nobles also understood that the relationship between Owen and Julian is really good, and there is obviously no room for them to take advantage of this matter.

Julian was very happy to hear this. Why did he send the drawings of farm tools to the church and the king?Not yet to prevent the day!

In this world without patent rights, there are only things held by the big powers, and no one dares to covet them.

Of course, after leaving the Maggie Kingdom, it would be impossible for the people from the four empires to imitate the monopoly, but it doesn't matter. Then the ability to occupy more territory.

The business of the agricultural tool shop was as good as ever. Julian just came to the shop for a while, looked at the account book, and left.

Owen went to the Gray Tower Restaurant with him for lunch. While they were having a relaxed meal, chatting and flirting with each other, a hooded figure slowly walked into the gate of Monk City.

A guard at the gate felt that he was a stranger and stopped him to ask for an entry fee. The man stopped, took out two dirty silver coins from his pocket, and put them in the guard's hand.

When the guard took the silver coin, he touched the opponent's finger. The cold and stiff touch made him shiver, and looked at the man suspiciously.

The hooded figure didn't speak, just looked at the guard quietly. The guard originally wanted to question him, but suddenly felt dazed, and shifted his gaze to another direction inexplicably.

His companion was checking on another person, and when he got to know the matter, he came over and asked him, "What did that person do just now?"

The guard froze for a moment: "What are you doing?"

His friend thought he was joking, and bumped him: "It's the man with the hood just now, didn't you say he was a little suspicious and wanted to ask?"

"With a hood?" The guard looked blank for a moment, then shook his head: "Oh, you said him, it's nothing, it's quite normal."

His friend didn't think too much about it, and it happened that another person came outside the door, and he quickly put the matter aside.

The guard had been in a trance all afternoon, and he didn't even notice that after he got the two silver coins, he didn't throw them into the city fee box, but kept playing with them in his hand, and every time he played , a gray gas melted into his body, his fingers had turned black, and his expression became more and more dull.

After getting off work at night, he returned home in a daze, and fell headlong on the bed. He felt very tired, very tired, and even breathing became a very laborious act.

Maybe, I need to sleep, maybe I'll be fine when I wake up.

It was the guard's last thought before falling into darkness...

Dark clouds covered a curved silver moon, and the slight evening wind swayed the windows slightly.

A hooded figure walked slowly to the window, looked through the window at the corpse lying on the bed, and twitched the corners of his mouth stiffly.

"Get up..." A hoarse voice came from under the hood.

The guard on the bed who was out of breath suddenly sat up, his eyes glowing with faint blue light.

Owen Diary:

The pervert finally left, and took the weird officiant away.

Roland said that the higher-ups of the church already knew about it, and told me to leave it alone, hey, do you really think I'm willing to meddle in those nosy things?

The recent days have been extremely comfortable. Compared with those days when I struggled in the church, I feel like I have fallen a little bit.

I've always thought of myself as a very ambitious and powerful person. I didn't expect that after being with Julian, I could become so... leisurely?

It's a pity... I am still me, I am Owen Garcia, the person who has seen the darkness at the bottom of society and vowed never to fall to that level again.

I can't indulge in the current comfort. If my strength loses melee combat, I will be replaced by someone else sooner or later. In order to protect Julian, I have to work harder...

Maybe I'll contact Roland to apply for this year's experience mission, try to complete it as soon as possible, and come back to accompany Julian.

The crisis is approaching, and Julian will have to struggle to survive again...

Julian: I think your title is wrong!Why do I have to struggle to survive after crossing?Can't you just give me a giant golden finger and make everyone call me daddy?

Author (pointing fingers): But in that case, Owen can't force you... Although the three views are not correct, I think everyone seems to like such a well-loved plot.

Julian: Death!
