On the outskirts of the main street of the city of Aurum, every few meters, will be seen a large tree deliberately planted to make the scenery around the city look more alive and natural.
There are actually many functions of these trees, in addition to being useful to make the scenery and air fresher, this tree is also often used as a place of shelter and rest for residents of the city or visitors who often cross this road.
So Aurum city officials decided to make some benches under the tree so that people would be more comfortable while taking shelter or resting.
But anyone would definitely not have expected that at this moment, the second Young Master of the Silverash family, Evan Silverash, would sit limp and helplessly in the shade of this tree.
Evan was currently sitting on the sidewalk with his legs stretched out and his back leaning against the trunk of a tree.
He did not choose to sit on the bench that had been provided because there was a couple who were making out to sit on the bench and the distance with another bench was too far away so he preferred his current place.
[Fuck, I didn't think it would be like this, because the Mana, Aura and even the Star Energy that was inside my body had been completely depleted, either, the injuries I got against the guardians of the ruins were not able to heal normally but it was getting worse, besides my physical and mental body had also reached its limit, too, right now I can't even control my Soul Energy properly. ]
Plok...
As Evan was examining the condition of his own body, he was suddenly startled by the sound of footsteps slowly approaching towards him.
Immediately he with all his might spread his Soul Energy with all his remaining strength and tried to understand what was happening.
And what he saw at the moment was a girl of about 5-6 years old standing in front of him with an expression of pity plastered clearly on her face.
" Uhmm... are you okay ? "
The little girl asked in a soft and sweet voice.
" Hmmm, I'm fine, do you need something young girl ? "
" Hehe.. It's good that you're okay, actually I just went home shopping with mom and dad, but I accidentally saw your bad condition.
I once said that if anyone else is in trouble, we should help each other, do you need help, beggar sir ? "
When Evan heard what the little girl said to him, his mouth twitched a few times before he replied weakly.
" No need for young girls, I just need to rest for a while and it will heal by itself, so you don't have to worry. "
" True, fine then, umh... "
After hearing Evan's reply, the girl heaved a sigh of relief and then stuffed her right hand into her pants pocket as if looking for something.
Before long, the girl pulled her hand back along with 1 additional copper coin in her grasp, as if dissatisfied with what she was getting, the girl immediately searched all the pockets on her clothes but still found nothing.
" Lord beggar, I only have this with me, I hope you accept it. "
Said the girl in a small voice and was a little timid.
" Hehehee, you're a good girl, what's your name ? "
" My name is Sherly. "
" Well Sherly, since you gave your precious coins to your servant, this beggar master must certainly give you something in return. "
But what made Evan a little surprised was that the little girl refused his gift.
" No need for a beggar master, you can take it for yourself, my mother once said that if we want to help someone, we should do it willingly and should not expect anything in return. "
" Fttt. "
" Why are you laughing, beggar sir, is there anything funny about the words I say. "
" Hehehee, no, actually this box is of little use to me, it's a precious gift from my only friend, but because I can't see, I can't see, I don't even know what's in this box.
I don't want something my best friend would forever be in this box without anyone using it, so I'd better give it to you and I hope you can use it well. "
" Hmmm.well then, I'll take it. "
" But remember, just open this box if you get home and don't let anyone else see the contents of this box other than your parents. "
" Both beggar master and also thank you, my father and mother have been waiting, so see you next time. "
" Don't forget what I said. "
" ... "
" Sigh. mister beggar. "
After receiving Evan's wooden box, the little girl went running hurriedly towards a pair of young men and women in their 25s who were watching him with a big smile on their lips.
Evan who saw that also let out a faint smile on his lips, but that smile did not last long.
Cling...
Suddenly there was a sound of a coin falling right in front of his body and as he used Soul Energy once again to look, he, it turned out to be a middle-aged lung man who threw a copper coin nearby with the exact same look of pity as the previous little girl.
After the man left, Evan hesitated for a moment before picking up the coin the man had thrown.
" Heeeee doesn't seem to be just my Knight talent, who would have thought I had other hidden talents.
After all this is not a bad thing, if one day the Silverash family suddenly falls into poverty, at least I will not starve by the wayside. "
After Evan muttered something that was almost impossible to happen, he took off the black coat he was wearing and rolled it up in such a way that it formed to resemble a bowl, then he placed the two copper coins he had obtained earlier inside that bowl.
After feeling everything was in order, Evan laid his body on the pavement in a curled up position like a ball and began to fall asleep.
Cling.. cling...
Simultaneously, the clattering sound of coins continued to be heard from time to time coming from the bowl that was in front of him.
But this didn't last long, though, moments later there was a luxurious horse carriage escorted by several silver-armored city guards speeding up at high speed but suddenly stopped by the side of the road not far from where Evan had fallen asleep.
Soon the door of the carriage opened and showed two very beautiful girls walking slowly out of the carriage towards where Evan was currently asleep.
