Ch 54: March 7th: Star! Stop Right There!

Noelle, seeing Grand Master Qin speak, could only agree.

“Alright.”

Ye Yun nodded in satisfaction.

“Good, then you’ll start work tomorrow. It’s late now, go home and rest. See you tomorrow.”

Afterwards, everyone in the shop dispersed.

Bronya, Herrscher, and Natasha, content, returned to Belobog through the portal.

Grand Master Qin, Lumine, Noelle, and Paimon also returned to Tivat.

The train crew each returned to their rooms to rest.

March 7th stretched.

“Now that I think about it, my own bed is still the most comfortable~”

Xing finished the last bite of durian and burped~

“Let’s go, let’s go, sleep, sleep.”

Xing said as they were about to walk towards March 7th’s room.

March 7th saw this and immediately stopped Xing.

“Xing! Don’t enter the room yet! Air it out! You smell strongly of durian!”

Xing chuckled, making a face.

“Hee hee hee, I want to, I want to.”

Xing ran towards March 7th’s room mischievously, and March 7th quickly chased after them.

“Xing! You stop right there!”

Jizi, Walther, and Dan Heng, seeing this scene, smiled knowingly.

Ye Yun also washed up and rested.

Belobog.

After returning to Belobog, Bronya took out Star Coins, slapping them onto the bubbles on the surface of the selected items.

The bubbles disappeared, and a large amount of supplies gushed out.

Gepard, with a group of Silver Mane Iron Guards, immediately stepped forward to receive the supplies.

Rice, vegetables, flour, fruit, meat, mining equipment, and various industrial equipment.

There were far too many things. Thankfully, this was a Mechanical Settlement. Bronya found Svarog and had them dispatch a batch of Mechanized Soldiers to help transport the supplies.

Finally, Bronya took out the High-Quality Rice Voucher she had bought with her Star Coins.

After tearing it up, a formation appeared in Bronya’s hand, from which rice continuously flowed.

Herrscher quickly found a batch of bags to catch it.

Finally.

After more than two hours of busy work, all the purchased supplies were moved into the warehouse.

Bronya looked at the full warehouse of supplies and breathed a sigh of relief.

With these supplies, the pressure facing Belobog would be greatly reduced.

Before, they had to fight Abyssal Monsters while also worrying about filling their stomachs.

Now, at least they wouldn’t have to worry about going hungry.

This warehouse is heavily guarded on all four sides, with Gepard personally leading the guard.

Afterwards, Bronya came to the newly reclaimed Commercial Street.

It is worth mentioning that all the residents of the Lower City have been relocated here.

The living conditions in the Lower City were truly terrible. Now that there is a place, of course, they had to move out.

Now, besides miners, only Svarog’s Mechanical Settlement remains in the Lower City.

Svarog’s Mechanical Settlement will not move; it stays there guarding the portal.

Bronya strolled down Commercial Street. In the shops around, a family of three huddled around a bonfire, an iron pot on the fire.

Inside the pot, freshly distributed rice was cooking.

Bronya could vaguely hear the family’s conversation.

“Daddy, this rice smells so good~”

“Smells good, right? If it smells good, eat more later.”

“Mmm! Daddy, it’s so pretty here! I saw a monster that eats people today!”

“Haha, that’s a bus. Tomorrow, Daddy will take you to ride one.”

“Yay!”

“Alright, alright, you two don’t make a fuss. Come and eat. After eating, we should rest.”

“Okay, okay, I’ll listen to my wife.”

The family of three sat around a fire, happily eating White Porridge.

Although it was only White Porridge, in this snowy winter night, it was enough to warm their hearts.

Bronya looked into the distance. Scenes like this were common in Commercial Street.

These people’s eyes were no longer lifeless; they were full of hope, hope for tomorrow.

Before, these people’s only hope for tomorrow was to survive. Now, there were many other things.

For example, earning more money to buy some furniture for their new home.

For example, buying new clothes for their wife and children.

And for example, pursuing their dreams and enriching their lives.

Bronya’s lips unconsciously curved upwards, and she murmured softly.

“It’s good.”

Bronya turned and left Commercial Street, her steps firmer, her posture straighter.

Knights of Favonius Headquarters doorway.

Lumine and Paimon waved goodbye to Grand Master Qin and Noelle.

“See you tomorrow, Grand Master Qin, Noelle.”

Lumine and Paimon went to a small garden below the Knights of Favonius Headquarters. Lumine’s Off-Road RV was parked there.

This small garden has been designated by Grand Master Qin for Lumine, as her “home”.

A fence had been set up at the entrance.

Vines covered the fence, with flowers of various colors blooming on them.

Pushing open the fence, flower beds were on both sides, and a straight path leading to the RV was in front.

The path was paved with pebbles, and there was a bench on the path.

The two went to the RV entrance and entered.

The RV had changed a lot since it was bought; it had many more traces of life.

Photos hung on the wall, a vase was on the table, and so on.

After resting for a while, the two began to wash up.

“Lumine, get me a towel.”

After handing Paimon a towel, Lumine dried her hair and lay down on the bed.

Because Paimon didn’t take up “space,” the two slept together on the top bunk. The bottom bunk had been converted into a small living room, with a small table and a bookshelf.

Lumine lay in bed, admiring the view outside the window.

The moonlight was bright, and the sacred figure was reflected in the Cider Lake.

In a short time, Paimon also finished washing up.

“Lumine, what are we eating tonight?”

Lumine looked at Paimon.

“You just finished eating so much durian and roasted chicken, are you still hungry?”

Paimon crossed her arms.

“That was snacks, not a proper meal.”

Lumine was speechless.

“There’s nothing left at home, just two instant noodles. If you want to eat, you can make some.”

Paimon rubbed her hands and took out instant noodles from the refrigerator.

“Okay, Lumine, do you want some?”

Lumine casually replied.

“Yes.”

Afterwards, Paimon made the instant noodles. Lumine opened the outdoor dining table, and the two sat at the outdoor dining table, one bowl of noodles each, chatting and slurping noodles.

“Lumine, shall we go eat Sweet Flower Brewed Chicken tomorrow?”

“No, we’re going to find Dvalin tomorrow, have you forgotten?”

“Oh~ Then the day after tomorrow, hee hee.”

Inside the Knights of Favonius Headquarters.

After Noelle went back, Grand Master Qin came to Klee’s room.

Grand Master Qin gently pushed open the door and saw Klee and Hook resting in Dodoco’s arms.

The two little ones were huddled together, sleeping soundly.

Dodoco glanced at Grand Master Qin and smiled.

Grand Master Qin went in, covered the two little ones with a blanket, and quietly backed out, closing the door.

Grand Master Qin returned to her office, stretched, and then walked towards her home.

They were going to find Dvalin tomorrow, so they wouldn’t process official documents tonight; they would rest up first.
