Oech was going to fetch the knife from the kitchen, but Firey stopped him.

“Please leave it to me!” She was already drooling.

“Leave it to you?” Oech frowned.

Firey was just a child. He found the idea of letting her handle the boar ridiculous.

Oech turned to Himmel Soan, who nodded and said, “You can leave it to her. She may seem tiny, but she can beat a thousand you put together!

!!

“If she wants to take care of the food, let her do it.”

Oech backed off. Since Mr. Soan had said so, who was he to suggest otherwise? He couldn’t stop the girl even if he wanted to. She was a Soan!

Firey carried the boar outside. The perfect way to cook a boar was to roast it!

Inside, Himmel Soan and Oech sat down.

“Mr. Soan, why did you return?” Oech asked after some hesitation.

“I need to investigate something in the Dusk Soul Forest.”

The Dusk Soul Forest!

Oech immediately saw what it was about. Mr. Soan was going on his own investigation!

He knew Mr. Soan came out of the Dusk Soul Forest with amnesia. Now that he had retrieved his memory, he must want to find out why he was in the forest.

Oech didn’t find it weird at all.

“The Dusk Soul Forest is a strange place. Please be careful!” Oech reminded Himmel Soan.

He knew he didn’t need to warn Mr. Soan because the man was capable enough to handle it on his own. Still, he said those words out of kindness.

“There are things we have to do. You’re going to run into danger sooner or later when you go hunting, but you still do it because your life depends on it. It’s the same with what I do.” Himmel Soan smiled, finding Oech easy to talk to.

Despite the great gap between their cultivation levels, Himmel Soan still saw them as equals. Everybody’s lifestyle should be respected.

Oech nodded without saying another word.

“May I ask why you were banished here?” Himmel Soan asked.

“You’ve guessed it, haven’t you? I can’t keep anything from you.” Oech sighed.

He knew Himmel Soan would figure it out. After all, it only took him two days to master their language.

Oech didn’t know if that ability was hidden in Himmel Soan’s lost memory, but he attributed most of it to his intelligence.

He wasn’t surprised by Himmel Soan’s guess.

“All the villagers used to belong to a big family and were favored by the Baih family. Someone then offended Luton, Emperor Baih’s son. As a result, 90% of the family was killed while the survivors were banished.

“We were deemed unworthy of a surname, which is why I’m only known as Oech. We’re not allowed to live in Stelladom. We had to move all the way out here.” Oech smiled wryly.

Somebody said the wrong thing, causing so many people to be killed and banished. That was how things worked in Stelladom, a cultivation world.

Himmel Soan nodded. He knew what Oech had gone through, but he didn’t offer any comforting words because no words in this world could comfort these people.

Oech and his people had to learn to move on. Judging by their attitudes right now, they had already done that.

At that moment, they smelled an aroma in the air.

“I think Firey is done. Let’s go out.” Himmel Soan walked out of the room.

By then, many other villagers also noticed the aroma and gathered around. They saw a boar being roasted over a fire. Next to it was a girl with red hair and a red dress.

“Who’s that girl? How can she stand in the middle of the fire without getting burned?”

“What’s that smell? It’s so nice!”

“I think it’s coming from that boar!”

“It must be so hard to roast such a big boar!”

The villagers gathered around and discussed the scene. They couldn’t believe their eyes. When Firey was standing in the fire, they didn’t think she was roasting the boar.

Moreover, who was she? Why was she here?

Creak…

While they were confused, Oech and Himmel Soan came out. People in the crowd frowned upon recognizing Himmel Soan.

“Why is he here again?”

“That mute is back, but his clothes aren’t as strange as before.”

“Did he bring the girl?”

“They look alike. Is she his daughter?”

“She can’t be. The mute wasn’t gone for too long. He couldn’t have had a daughter in such a short time!”

“That’s right! That’ll be ridiculous!”

The villagers couldn’t stop talking about it.

Oech cleared his throat, feeling embarrassed. Himmel Soan was his guest, but these people kept calling him “the mute.” How rude!

Oech was about to say something when Himmel Soan stopped him. Turning around, he saw Himmel Soan shake his head, telling him not to do anything impulsive.

Oech sighed. He knew he had to be careful. Moreover, the villagers didn’t mean to hurt anybody. They were just a little hostile.

“Since you’re all here, I’ll invite you all to the feast. Everybody can have some meat when the boar is roasted!”
