After getting out of Arthur's house, Thania's thoughts drifted. Had Thania not broken through the two levels of nature, she would have thought that this was just a dream.
He was really very lucky to meet a hermit like this.
The female servant behind Thania asked puzzledly, "Master Princess, why are you so distressed about her? Judging from any side, he was just an ordinary person."
Thania turned around and her countenance turned serious, then said, "Nayana, you must not tell anyone what happened today, especially where you live. Do you understand?"
This senior hermit here must have been imprisoned for not wanting to be bothered by others. Therefore, he must not harm the hermit.
Nayana had never seen such a serious Thania. Therefore, he hurriedly said in fear, "Mr Princess, I understand."
"Oh, I forgot to ask Master for help," Thania shouted suddenly.
Thania wants to break away from the marriage arranged by her father. Had he asked the Master, he might have been able to come up with a solution.
Thania was upset by herself. However, it feels inappropriate if he goes back there now.
"Huh, it seems like I can only wait for my next arrival."
Thania looked up her head while looking at the house and realized when the thick fog had appeared under the rock of the hill, making the house appear towering.
...
Thania leaves with worry, while Arthur continues his relaxed life.
Playing the harp, planting flowers, fishing, and painting when there is a mood to improve mental condition.
Today, Arthur sits by the pool in his backyard fishing. Meanwhile, Blacky lay down beside his feet and looked at the pool calmly.
"Well, every month I always release a lot of fish. But why can't you get a fish?"
Arthur held the fishing rod while frowning. Then, he looked at Blacky with suspicious eyes and said, "You stole the food, huh? I remember that I let go of a golden fish, but now I don't see the shadow at all."
Blacky stood up in fear and his eyes filled with innocence. Then, he shook his head like a human.
"It looks like I have to go down the mountain to buy more fish."
Arthur did not investigate further. He just stared at the fish that did not go fishing and kept the bait back. Then, Arthur stood up and prepared to go down the mountain.
For the past five years, although Arthur lived a life like a recluse, he did not isolate himself from the outside world. Moreover, the top of the hill on which he ascended was not far from the city.
The name of the city is the City of the Sun. Inside were many ordinary people, sometimes there were also settled cultivators.
"Eh, Mr. Arthur has come."
"Mr Arthur, here, taste my bakpao! No need to pay."
"Mr Arthur, what did you come to town this time to buy? You should have been here longer."
Having just entered the city, there were countless people known to greet Arthur.
Arthur responded with a smile. Arthur came to the trading market in Sun City casually and walked to the fish-only stall.
"Mr Arthur, come to buy more fish?" The stall owner was already very familiar with Arthur and greeted him with a smile.
Arthur nodded and said, "Yes, this time I want to buy quite a lot, double than before."
"Good!" The stall owner smiled, then said as he wrapped up the goods, "Master Arthur, you didn't just buy them some time ago, why did you even buy so much more this time?"
Arthur sighed in resignation and said, "As far as you know, obviously I've released this youngster into the pond, but I still haven't managed to lure a single fish."
The stall owner's movements came to a halt and said in a low tone of voice, "Master Arthur, there seems to be something strange."
"I feel so too."
The stall owner reminded, "Master Arthur, I think you should be more careful. In the pool, there are monsters. You better stay away."
Arthur's heart was a little stunned.
No, there are real monsters?
Maybe all the fish Arthur kept were eaten by monsters?
Arthur began to imagine. Arthur has been living in the house for five years. He was also not willing to move again. After all, in case of having to move house, Arthur also could not find a place to live anymore.
"Mr Arthur, it just so happens that there's a turtle here. Usually, turtles like this only stay in one place and every afternoon they will come out of the water to sunbathe. You can put this turtle in the pool. If nothing happens to this turtle, it's safe." The owner of the stall gave the idea to Arthur.
This was just like using a turtle to become an experiment. If during the day the tortoise did not emerge from the pond, it was most likely eaten by monsters.
Arthur's eyes sparkled and immediately said, "Sir, I'll buy this turtle."
"Mr Arthur, if it wasn't for you, my stall would have been bankrupt from the start. This turtle is still a small and not something valuable, so how could I possibly ask you to pay for it?"
In the end, this turtle was used as a free gift because Arthur had bought fish.
After that, Arthur took the young fish and the tortoise, and rushed home to test whether there were monsters in the pond or not.
As soon as he arrived at the city gate, Arthur saw that there were many people gathered there and also heard the sound of crying.
Amidst the crowd, there was a middle-aged woman lying on the street crying.
Arthur hurriedly approached and asked, "Aunt Maya, what happened?"
Aunt Maya is a very friendly person. When Arthur was new to this world of cultivation, it was Aunt Maya who always helped him.
