Hughes Town

After bidding farewell to the woodcutting uncle, Liens walked in the direction he had previously indicated.

Soon, he arrived at a path where the snow had been cleared.

Then, a blurry scene of intertwined houses appeared in his vision.

Under the midday sun, from a distance, it looked as if it was bathed in a faint glow.

Following the path, Liens didn't take long to reach the vicinity of Hughes Town, and at the same time, the number of pedestrians around him increased.

However, when they saw Liens' appearance, they all chose to keep their distance.

This made him too embarrassed to go up and ask about the situation.

As for forcing information with a sword?

He had only just returned to the civilized world and didn't want to become a "savage" again because of such a minor matter.

However, not everyone avoided Liens.

"This... traveler? May I ask what brings you to Hughes Town?"
