Chapter 11

　　Alan looked at Rudius's face and felt that he might not be pretending to be stupid. He was kicked out of the house in his previous life, so he played outside in this life to train his survival ability in the wild, just in case he was kicked out of the house again.

　　In the original work, Rudy met Sylphy soon after Roxy left, but in fact there should have been a period of time between them, during which he was doing this.

　　As for meeting Sylphy, it was probably during the summer, and now it is only the end of March or the beginning of April.

　　It looks like Sylphy will be bullied for a while. Sylphy was bullied because of her green hair, so it is very likely that she has been bullied since she was able to run outside and remember.

　　Mother Bai's gloomy childhood had a profound impact on her, and her humble character in the newlywed chapter is directly related to this.

　　Alan sighed silently in his heart.

　　"Guiding Rudy to rescue Sylphy in advance shouldn't cause too many butterfly effects... Inferring that, there won't be any other changes in related matters, it's just that they got to know each other half a year earlier."

　　".Don't you play with the other children in the village?"

　　Rudy tilted his head to look upward and to the side, scratching his face.

　　"Maybe we can't play this together."

　　Alan looked down at Rudy.

　　"You say, are we friends?"

　　Rudy's mouth twitched.

　　'.I thought this fierce little devil was more mature, but it turns out he is still like a child and likes to talk about "Tomodaqi" all the time.'

　　Rudy gave his signature good-boy smile.

　　"Of course, forget it. After all, the teacher just got me one hour less of swordsmanship class today!"

　　The next moment, his face was poked by Alan's hand.

　　"Don't be hypocritical, I really want to be friends with you."

　　Rudy was stunned.

　　Alan glanced at him, turned around and walked out, turning his head and speaking to him as he left the room.

　　"I'll help you build the shrine tomorrow, and I'll also keep the underwear matter a secret for you."

　　Rudy's eyes lit up.

　　"good!"

　　Smoke and dust appeared before Alan's eyes.

　　[Free instant mission - Gain Sylphiet's favor, can be issued.]

　　[Task Reward: Magic Groove of Enchanted Realm, unlocked.]

　　[Before Rudy encounters Sylphiet in the original storyline, you can choose the time node to start the task by yourself, and complete it within one day after it is started. Will it be released in advance? ]

　　(End of this chapter)

Chapter 16: Enter Sylphiet's Favorability Mission in Advance

　　'It must be completed within one day after opening... Put it aside for now, I'll think about it.'

　　The panel dissipates.

　　Alan watched Rudy lower his head and place the holy object in front of his face, almost touching the tip of his nose, and hurriedly interrupted his spell.

　　"But, when you go out to explore the terrain, you must take me with you."

　　Rudy was stunned and looked at Allen with squinted eyes.

　　"Teacher, are you also interested in plants?"

　　Alan pointed his index finger at his face and spoke word by word.

　　"I just said it because I want to be friends with you."

　　Then he looked at Rudy's surprised expression, turned and walked out of the room.

　　Rudy looked at Alan's back.

　　"Friends?"

　　'.Speaking of which, this guy named Alan seems to be more mature than those kids of the same age. Maybe we can have some common topics. But he seems to be the type of kid who lacks love. Paul also approves of him becoming friends with me. Besides, this guy's face, apart from the fact that he looks a bit fierce, is actually a very tough and handsome type. He will definitely be very popular with girls in the future. If I become friends with him, the leftovers in the future may flow to me.'

　　"Although my appearance is not high-level, but if he is handsome enough, I will also look good when I am with him."

　　Rudy nodded.

　　"Girls who don't have much confidence in themselves will probably target me. I prefer girls who have low self-esteem to those who are confident and aggressive. I feel like they are more suitable for training... No, more suitable for nurturing~"

　　'It works, just like a beautiful woman will take an ugly woman with her as a supporting role, I want to do the opposite.'

　　——

　　Alan returned to the bedroom, collapsed on the bed, and let out a breath.

　　"What happened today was a bit sudden and out of our control. As expected, even if you have read the novel, because there is one more person involved in the incident, it will bring different emergencies, and the plot cannot be completely developed like the novel."

　　"Fortunately, the general direction is still normal. As for Sylphy, should she intervene in advance to save Bai's mother? It's okay if she doesn't think about it. Once she thinks about it, she will feel stomachaches every day when she is thrown mud, insulted, and even beaten by her peers."

　　'The childhood experience directly led to Sylphy's indulgence towards Rudy in the future. Even though she was jealous of Rudy's harem, she was able to put herself in Rudy's shoes and even help him maintain harmony in the harem.'

　　'It's all because Rudy became the light of her childhood and the only friend in the village.'

　　Alan was thinking about something while focusing on his Dragon Saint Fighting Qi Core.

　　There was a dark brown groove next to the magic pattern in the shape of a tree with green light, and there was nothing on it.

　　'The magic groove for detoxification. There is no magic pattern embedded yet. I remember that Senis knows intermediate detoxification. She usually goes to the village medical clinic to help. If there is a chance, go and get the magic pattern.'

　　'As for Sylphy and Lokisi, they had the butterfly effect after only one night of contact. I wonder if early contact would cause any problems. Would it make it more difficult for Rudy and Sylphy to separate?'

　　'Think again.'

　　Alan's consciousness gradually blurred and he fell into a dream.

　　——

　　The sound of flowing water jumped into Alan's ears.

　　Mixed with discordant noises.

　　Alan opened his eyes blankly, feeling dazed.

　　The sun is scorching, casting its rays across the crisscrossing farmlands. The birds are singing and the noise of children is heard everywhere.

　　He tilted his head and looked to the side.

　　The waves were shimmering like fireflies, and a small river was meandering past his legs.

　　'.What am I doing here? Why am I standing by the river so leisurely? It's my weekend... I'm just hanging out here after finishing my work at the company. I have to go back to the company to work overtime.'

　　"You stinky little demon kid, get out of this village!"

　　"Get out of the village!!"

　　"Take my move!"

　　"You are so lame that you didn't even hit me! Watch me!"

　　"Hit it!"

　　A burst of cheers.

　　Alan turned around in confusion to look at the source of the sound. In the paddy field beside the stream, three teenagers covered in mud were confronting a teenager squatting by the river bank.

　　Ah yes, I traveled through time and I don't have to go to work… It's so cool… Three people are bullied by one person? No, the three people who look embarrassed are actually the bullies. They are covered in mud just because they have to go to the fields to touch the mud…

　　The shouting started again.

　　"Now let's compete for the lead!"

　　"Okay, watch me!"

　　"Hit it!"

　　"Hitting the head is too boring, hit the face!"

　　"Oh, I hit it, I hit it!"

　　"Tsk, this little demon doesn't resist at all. So boring!"

　　"Let's go, let's go, come back tomorrow~"

　　Maybe they noticed the tall Alan, but the kids scattered and ran towards the village.

　　Alan just felt his mind was hazy. He didn't know why he was here. He just felt sad watching this scene.

　　The bullied boy was very short, and the mud on his body almost made him look like a small mud man. He sat stupidly by the river.

　　Alan walked forward cautiously.

　　His hair was a little long, and the mud had covered all of it, obscuring his expression. Next to him was an old handbasket with lumps of mud in it.

　　It's not mud, it should be food like bread, but it's all covered with mud.

　　The boy stared at the basket blankly, ignoring the footsteps approaching, and groping for something in front of his face with his hands, but because of his body blocking his view, Alan could not see his movements clearly.

　　Subconsciously, Alan wanted to help him up, but just as he reached the river and stretched out his hand, his peripheral vision caught sight of the river surface, and his hand froze in mid-air.

　　The clear river water reflects a dirty face.

　　The owner of the face was constantly pulling out clumps of hair from his muddy head and holding them in his hands. Occasionally, a broken hair would slip through his fingers and fall into the river.

　　The hands kept moving back and forth, and more and more hair appeared on the water surface.

　　The hair that fell into the water was washed by the current, gradually revealing the emerald green background.

　　Alan woke up.

　　Sylphy.

　　".Don't. Don't do this. Sylphy."

　　Alan patted her shoulder with a trembling hand, and Sylphy turned her head.

　　Only a pair of reddish-brown eyes could be seen on the mud-covered face.

　　Godless, numb, empty.

　　Alan felt his throat dry and he opened his mouth with difficulty.

　　".Stop pulling your hair, it's all covered in mud. Let me wash it for you."

　　Sylphy stared at Alan blankly, and did not respond to the invitation, but just raised the muddy hair in her hand.

　　Alan looked down the direction of her palm.

　　In Sylphy's palm, clumps of hair that had just been pulled out were tangled in mud and turned black, like dirty mud grass.

　　She said.

　　"If you don't wash it and it gets covered in mud, it's not green anymore."

　　——

　　"ah!"

　　Alan was awakened by the scream in his ear, and he jumped up from the bed.

　　The river disappeared, but there was indeed a young man in front of him.

　　Alan looked at Rudy who was sitting on the ground in shock and let out a breath.

　　'It was a dream.'

　　".No, what are you yelling about so early in the morning?"

　　Rudius, who came over to call Allen to wake up, showed a deflated expression as if he was being blamed. Although the scream did come from his mouth, there was no doubt that Allen was the cause of his scream.

　　He pointed at Alan's hand.

　　Alan looked down.

　　He saw himself clenching his fists, with pieces of wood chips deeply embedded in his palms, the wounds were so deep that the bones were visible, and a corner of the bed board had been crushed by the fighting spirit that he could not help but arouse in his dream.

　　Alan looked at his injured hand, was silent for a moment, then turned to Rudy and said.

　　"Can healing magic heal bed boards?"
