    It rained heavily all night and gradually stopped until the morning of the next day.  ¡ê¡Ø

    As the heavy cumulonimbus clouds gradually dispersed, the sun began to penetrate through the clouds and shine on the forest floor.

    "It is bright."

    Hopeless opened the tent and nodded with satisfaction.  But when he thought about the road conditions after the rain, he frowned again.

    "Uh-huh"

    But Little Red Riding Hood didn¡¯t think about it that much.  She squeezed her head away from the hunter, squinted her eyes and took a deep breath.  As the refreshing and slightly bitter smell of the forest filled her nose after the rain, a pure smile soon appeared on her face.

    "¡­¡­marvelous!"

    "Yeah."

    "Hey, it's sunny now? Isn't the teacher happy?"

    "Maybe it would have been if it hadn't rained in the first place."

    "The requirements are really high."

    Hopless tightened his shoelaces and began to pack up the tent.  At the same time, Little Red Riding Hood also lit up the fire and began to grill the remaining chicken from last night.

    She cut the bread with a knife and inserted the grouse roast inside.  So, just as Hopeless had packed up the tents and tied them to the horse, two generous barbecue sandwiches had been prepared and handed to him by Little Red Riding Hood.

    "Give."

    "Oh, thank you."

    Hopless opened his mouth and bit the bread. He checked the iron buckle on the luggage and said in a vague voice.

    "If nothing else happens, we will arrive at Baishi City before noon."

    "Is the teacher going there to do something?"

    "A little bit, mainly to see a friend."

    "Eh~Friends?"

    Little Red Riding Hood's tone was full of distrust.

    But this is a matter of course, because in Hopeless's life so far, there are really few people who can be called friends.

    "Of course. Even if it's me, I still have one or two friends."

    Hopeless turned around with a smile and patted Little Red Riding Hood on the head.

    "But Master, you never told me?"

    "Yeah?"

    "certainly."

    "That's because you didn't ask."

    The hunter patted Little Red Riding Hood's head and smiled.

    "Let's go."

    "Alright alright."

    The two men got on their horses and continued walking north.  Walk through the muddy forest path for the rest of the journey.  They soon left this small forest and came to the plains to the north.

    The castle known as the ¡®White Stone¡¯ stands here, protecting the nearby farms under the rule of the king.

    Yes.

    Although it is only a small country, Baishi City is indeed a capital.  There is a real palace in its not-high city wall. Although it is a little shabby, a real king lives there-

    Even if he is just a fool.

    ¡°Aspirational but sparse in talent, resourceful but never decisive.¡±

    "Eh?"

    The reason why I say this is simple.

    Because the king who rules this city, this plain, and even this country is really disappointing.

    Snower III, he neither has the ambition of His Majesty the First, nor the perseverance of His Majesty the Second.  Although he has been working hard to revive the kingdom, his forward-thinking character has kept him from doing anything.

    He wanted to reform, but was always hesitant.  As a result, he was hated not only by the nobles, but also by the people.

    ¡°Everyone thinks he is a liar who talks nonsense, and the prestige of the Snoor royal family is completely lost in his hands.  Even the most loyal royal nobles were no longer willing to follow him, and they turned their allegiance to his daughter - obeying the orders of the 'Snow White'.

    So, things got worse.

    After the ruling class was completely split into the 'princess faction' and the 'noble faction', Snow White's living environment began to become dangerous.

    They first forced the weak guy to accept a political marriage.  Then he tried to get Snow White to marry in another country. Unfortunately, this latter matter did not go smoothly: as the king's only heir, she still found a way to stay in the country even if the king did nothing.

    ¡°Replacing the king, she became the representative of ¡®reform¡¯ in the country, and became a thorn in the side of the nobles.

    ¡°To be honest, Hopeless couldn¡¯t think of anything more ironic.

    However, this is related toWhat's going on?

    Hopeless decided a long time ago that he did not want to be a hero or a sage.  He just wanted to get home, and he didn't want to see any trouble on the way to that outcome.

    "Go find my friends first, and then leave."

    "Continue heading north?"

    "right."

    Hopeless said as he led Little Red Riding Hood through the streets.  Because White Rock City is not very big, they quickly arrived at the destination of their trip - the 'friend's house' in Hopeless's words.

    That is a strange little shop no matter how you look at it: it is built in a remote dead end, and there is no human habitation nearby.  Although topography-wise, there is a noisy area dozens of meters away from here, but despite being so close, there is an eerie silence permeating the air here.

    ""

    It¡¯s hard for Little Red Riding Hood to describe the feeling and the look of the shop.

    It looked dirty and broken, and the windows were dusty.  The only signboard was not hung with iron bars, but nailed to the same old wooden door.

    ¡°Uh¡­it looks so shabby?¡±

    In the end, Little Red Riding Hood could only use the word broken to summarize - although the small village she lived in before was already quite miserable compared to White Rock City, it had a crushing advantage compared to the place in front of her.

    "That's absolutely right."

    Hopeless nodded in agreement, and then started knocking on the door.

    "Dorothy, are you at home?"

    "Here you are~"

    The person who opened the door was a little girl in a blue skirt. She looked about ten years old. Her long blond hair hung down to her waist and was tied into a ponytail with a white silk ribbon.

    Her face was full of smiles, and although her fair skin was stained with a little dust, she looked very cute.

    "It's Hope~"

    When she saw the hunter, she said hello energetically.  The small palm waved in the air a few times, full of childishness.

    "Teacher, is this your friend?"

    Little Red Riding Hood turned back to look at the hunter, the expression on her face was very "you criminal".

    "Yes, it is like that."

    The hunter shrugged uncomfortably, deliberately ignoring Little Red Riding Hood's gaze.  On the other side, Dorothy didn't pay attention to the interaction here.  She just smiled and waved her hands, and then continued to ask.

    "Want to come in for a cup of tea? It's just been brewed!"

    "Well, excuse me."

    The hunter nodded and followed Dorothy into the house.  But unlike what he expected, there were other people in the room.

    It was a girl who was gorgeously dressed and looked to be of a very high status.  She was probably older than Little Red Riding Hood, around sixteen or seventeen years old.

    She watched the hunter walk into the house and frowned slightly, but then stood up and asked Dorothy with a normal expression.

    "Who is this?"

    "My friend, just call me Hope - and Hope, this is Bai Xue."

    ""

    Hopless stretched out his hand to hold his eyebrows and felt his head suddenly hurt.
