Chapter 861: Chaos III.
Except for the most critical moment of the siege of the alien beasts, Jasmine did not appear in the public eye again.
Just like the previous sudden appearance, it suddenly disappeared again.
Of course, this is only for ordinary civilians.
Some people with identities know Jasmine's whereabouts very well.
Underground 'tavern'!
Jasmine spends a huge portion of the day in it, rarely leaving, just like she did before the beast tide.
Obviously, this is a woman who has a great attachment to her own 'turf'.
It's like a lion.
So, when Dean stepped into the underground 'tavern', there was an indescribable apprehension in his heart.
It's not like the enemy, it's just not sure.
Because, for Jasmine, with the existence of Long Lang, it is impossible for Dean to overpower the other party with strength.
Again, because of Rumlang, Dean had to ask Jasmine.
Long Lang can see the meaning of Jasmine as long as he is not blind.
At this time, Takayo fell into a deep sleep, and it was a long sleep, and as a friend of Takarou, Dean thought he should tell Jasmine.
And, give Jasmine a choice.
Continue to stay in Ryrol.
Still is...... Leave!
Dean is naturally inclined towards the latter.
But there is not the slightest certainty of persuasion.
Squeak!
With a distinctive sound, the door to the tavern opened.
There were very few guests inside, and most of them were waiters from the 'tavern'.
Looking at Dean, who was obscuring his face, these people's eyes glanced at him. They each withdrew their gaze.
People who come here. Most of them are dressed like this. There is nothing strange about it.
"Can you talk about it somewhere else?"
Dean walked straight to Jasmine at the bar and said in a low voice.
"Okay!"
Jasmine groaned, put down the cup she was wiping, and after gesturing to Dean, she walked to the back hall of the tavern.
Through a hallway, a door was pushed open, and Dean looked at the neatly stacked and discharged barrels inside, illustrating the purpose of the place.
"Say it. There's plenty of seclusion here! ”
Jasmine gestured to the waiter outside, and when the waiter closed the door from the outside, she turned to Dean and said.
In Dean's perception, the waiter outside was standing there with his back to the door.
Obviously, the other party is loyal enough.
"It's about Takarou!"
Dean said.
"Hmm!"
Jasmine nodded her head in understanding, and motioned for Dean to continue.
"Hmm...... We'll be leaving after that and probably won't be back for quite some time, so, I want to ask Jasmine about you. Would you like to leave together? ”
Dean groaned slightly, and let go of some flowery rhetoric. Said in a more direct tone.
Then, Jasmine fell silent.
After a while, Jasmine suddenly raised her head and looked at Dean and said, "Dean, all your talents appear in your strength, and everything else is really useless!" ”
"Huh?"
Dean looked at Jasmine for some reason.
He couldn't understand why Jasmine suddenly said something completely unrelated to his questioning.
"Long Lang once said, you have a wife?"
"Well, yes!"
Dean nodded, and Dean didn't think he needed to hide anything about having a wife.
Even, he himself thinks that meeting Leni is a lucky thing in his life and something worthy of the envy of others.
Even if you don't boast, you shouldn't hide it.
"As your wife, I think she must be very tired and hesitant!"
Leni said.
"What do you mean?"
Dean frowned.
"So, if you're really an emotional idiot, you should learn from Takarou well, or...... Take care of your wife more! ”
Jasmine said as she walked over to the barrel next to her and pulled out a canvas bag from the back door.
"You?"
Dean was stunned.
"I've taken care of the tavern's business! These are the belongings I'm going to take with me...... When do we depart? ”
Jasmine asked straight.
"Anytime!"
Looking at this scene, Dean couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Perhaps, as Jasmine said, he was a little 'thin' in terms of feelings, and he didn't even see Jasmine's true thoughts before.
Or it can be said that Jasmine didn't see her feelings for Takarou.
There is obviously no need for any persuasion or hesitation.
It's all his own mind.
A woman's mind......
Tsk, torture!
Dean looked at Jasmine, who was smiling with her backpack on her back, and couldn't help but shrug her shoulders, took out the bronze box from the [Dimensional Bag], opened the box, and made a gesture of please to Jasmine.
"Into it?"
Jasmine looked curiously at the inside of the bronze chest.
There was a faint light inside, and it was impossible to see clearly.
"Shall I come first?"
Dean felt he needed to set an example.
However, Jasmine waved her hand and stepped into it with her leg raised.
"Such a novel experience does not need to be demonstrated—it will make the original novelty boring!"
With such words, Jasmine disappeared in front of Dean.
Dean followed.
……
The scene changes in front of me, and the wine cellar becomes a grove of trees in the place of origin.
A faint morning light appeared in the dense forest, and a vigorous vitality emanated from the surrounding trees.
Dean looked around and nodded to himself.
With the dissipation of the power of Möbius, the environment of the entire Land of Origin has returned to normal.
That's just the environmental aspect, though!
As for the population?
That's definitely not something that can be recovered in a short period of time.
After all, aside from Kra Village, Dean is not in the Land of Origin. See a large number of human settlements.
"It's amazing? Is this another world? Your world? ”
Jasmine's exclamation rang out.
"It's another plane. But. Not ours, but Bronque's hometown! ”
Dean replied.
"Plane?"
Jasmine was curious about the term.
"Well, our world, every world, can be called a plane, among which there are big and small, the big ones don't know the edge, and the small ones are only the size of towns. There are too many to count, they are all in the astral plane, and the travel between the planes requires a teleportation array, or an astral ship - the former is similar to the entrance to the bronze chest you just used, and the latter...... Well, you'll see you in the future! ”
Dean said as he walked.
As for the 'novel' knowledge in Dean's mouth, Jasmine's eyes lit up, and a different look appeared on her face.
It was a look of thirst for adventure.
Dean saw it clearly. I couldn't help but shake my head with a wry smile in my heart again.
Because, before. He thinks Jasmine is a girl who likes to be quiet and homely.
And now, what the other party is showing is completely opposite to what he knows.
The two stepped into Kra Village one after the other.
As soon as I entered Kra Village, I saw Sophia standing at the entrance of the village.
Sophia did not wear a crow feather cloak, but was dressed in leather armor, carrying a bow and arrows, and the thin branches and leaves emerged from the cracks in the leather armor like vines, carrying an extraordinary breath of life, which complemented Sophia's long emerald green hair.
And the amber eyes flashed a flash of surprise when they saw Dean.
However, upon seeing Jasmine, wariness and hostility immediately appeared.
"Dean, who is she?"
Sophia asked in a stiff voice.
"Hello, I'm Jasmine, is Long Lang okay?"
Without waiting for Dean to reply, Jasmine took the initiative to speak, with a hint of anxiety and concern on her face.
"Takarou?"
Sophia was stunned for a moment, and then immediately changed her tone and softened: "That Excellency has been sleeping, and the Great Elder has been paying attention to him all the time, please come with me!" ”
With that, Sophia walked briskly towards the towering oak tree.
Jasmine, on the other hand, deliberately took a step late and threw a meaningful look at Dean.
Dean shrugged helplessly.
Then, in Jasmine's slightly disdainful eyes, she walked forward quickly.
"Dean! Jasmine! ”
Bronke, who had once again changed into his own leaf suit, looked at Dean and Jasmine who appeared in front of him, and couldn't help but stand up happily and waved his hand again and again.
The behavior is slightly childish, but it is sincere.
"Long time no see!"
Dean stepped forward and hugged the other.
It's been a long time, it's been a year.
"Looks like I'm missing something?"
Feeling the change in Dean's breath and the expression in his expression, Bronk said with a smile.
"Of course!"
Dean nodded.
Dean wasn't surprised that Blanc was able to spot this, after all, that's what the druids are good at.
Moreover, he does not intend to hide it either.
However, the timing is not right.
"Bronk, can you take Jasmine to see Dean first? Then, we'll have to have a detailed conversation! ”
Dean said.
"Of course!"
Bronk nodded, and then motioned to Jasmine: "Follow me, Long Lang is here!" ”
As soon as Bronk raised his hand, a path appeared in the towering canopy.
And with Bronk and Jasmine gone, in front of the treehouse, only Dean and Sophia were left.
For a while, the atmosphere seemed a little dull.
Dean sat down as if unconscious, quietly waiting for Bronk's return.
Sophia, however, was a little unable to look directly at such a dullness.
Subconsciously, she wanted to avoid it.
However, years of scouting have made this girl extraordinarily resilient and brave, so when Dean thinks Sophia will leave.
The other party actually stayed.
Not only did he stay, but he also walked in front of Dean and looked at Dean without dodging.
"What's wrong, Sophia?"
Dean was stunned.
Sophia looked at him without dodging, which was beyond Dean's expectations, and even caught Dean off guard.
Of course, Sophia's words after that were what caught Dean off guard in the real sense.
"I like you!"
Sophia said.
Suddenly, Dean was stunned.
