Green Light Town.
The hotel and restaurant that Liam ran had now been handed over to Nick, the Baltic who had recommended himself as a guide to Allen. Nick's strength was lackluster, not even at the level of a scavenger, but because of his relationship with Allen, he was able to get along in Green Light Town. Not to mention anything else, the hotel and restaurant that Liam had given him when he left were enough to meet Nick's daily needs. As long as he wasn't too greedy, he would even have enough money to buy his own house in the wilderness in a few years.
Life was so simple and plain.
However, after the environment in the Forgotten Realm began to deteriorate, Nick's business was getting worse day by day. Because Green Light Town was almost at the edge of the Forgotten Realm, it was the least affected, but recently, residents had begun to leave the town. Nick did not leave. Apart from being unwilling to give up the hard-won foundation of the town, it was also because he had nowhere else to go. There was no place for him in the wilderness, even if he had been Allen's guide for a period of time.
Today, Nick woke up early and was busy cleaning up the restaurant for the opening of the restaurant. The worse the business was, the more active he was. That was Nick's way of doing business. Although this way of doing business did not improve the restaurant and hotel's business much, at least Nick would not feel like he had nothing to do.
Just as the hourglass pointed to the daytime time zone and a thin layer of sand had accumulated, someone opened the restaurant door and walked in. Nick was wiping the table when he heard the voice. Without turning his head, he shouted, "Welcome."
"Hey, Nick, aren't you going to leave, old man?" A chubby Baltic raised his hand. He had no eyeballs on his head, and his eyes were in the palm of his hand. This odd-looking fellow was so rare among the Balts that almost everyone in the town remembered him.
"Jesse, Jesse, Jesse." With a rag in his hand, Nick opened his arms and gave him a hug. "What would you like? For the sake of being the first to come, the first drink is free."
"That's great. Give me a big meal today."
"Oh? Have you made a fortune recently, Jesse? It's not like you to have a big meal early in the morning, "Nick said as he walked to the kitchen.
Jesse sat down in a chair and whispered, "Actually, I'm here to say goodbye. Nick, you may not be a good person, but your cooking is much better than Liam's. "
Nick stopped and was stunned for a few seconds before he turned around and forced a smile. "So this is your last visit?"
"I say, Nick, why don't you sell this place and open a new one in Gale City?"
"No, Jesse." Nick shook his head. "I've been in the Forgotten Land for twenty years, you know? The outside world no longer suits me. "
"But as you can see, people are leaving now. Before long, Green Light Town will only be an empty shell. "
"I don't think so," Nick insisted. "Sir Allen wouldn't let that happen."
"Come on, old Nick. His Majesty Allen doesn't have time to care about this. He's in Demonic Ring City. Do you think he'll appear in Green Light Town? "
Nick lifted his head and looked out the window. He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he felt that the streets outside the window seemed to be brighter. Nick nodded and said, "Yes, he is now His Majesty Allen. But he used to live here. I have a feeling that he will do something for this. "
Jesse spread out his hands. "Alright, stubborn old thing. Hurry up and serve my dishes. I'll be on my way after I finish eating."
"I'll be right there."
When Nick turned around, he suddenly realized that the shadow beneath his feet was tilting and elongating. Jesse's soft cry came from behind him. Nick suddenly realized something and quickly turned around. He saw that the window was getting brighter and brighter, and finally, golden sunlight shone through the window.
That's right, it was sunlight!
Nick was stunned on the spot. Just as he said, he had been in Green Light Town for more than twenty years. He was even used to the polar night climate of the Forgotten Realm. To Nick, sunlight was like a familiar person in the depths of his memories, but his face was already blurred. He had forgotten the feeling of sunlight shining on his body. He had forgotten what the world looked like under the sun. But now, sunlight shone in from outside the window. It was not light, but sunlight!
"Hey, are you kidding me?" Jesse stood up and threw himself at the window. He stretched out his open palm. Outside the window, people ran out of their houses one after another. The sun dispelled the cold of the past few days. It illuminated people's eyes and even their hearts. Not long after, the streets were filled with cheers. Jesse turned around. "How could this be? The sun actually appeared in the Forgotten Realm."
Nick laughed out loud. "Look, Jesse. I'm sure it was Lord Allen who did it. No, His Majesty Allen. Long live His Majesty! "
He ran out of the street and shouted loudly. Emotions were easily infectious, so the remaining residents of the town all shouted Allen's name.
At this moment, Allen, who was on the balcony of the castle, narrowed his eyes. Seeing sunlight in the Forgotten Realm was also an incredible experience for him. It was like a blind man seeing the light of day again, and his mood was much more relaxed. He looked over and saw Alice leaning against the stone railing on the edge of the balcony, looking at the distant valley. Under the sunlight, the gloom of the valley was fading away, and everything showed bright colors under the sunlight. Alice combed her hair that had been blown away by the wind and closed her eyes with a look of enjoyment.
"Is that okay?" Allen walked to her side and put his hands on the stone railing. "If I'm not mistaken, the special weather of the Forgotten Realm is to protect the Black Gate of Canon, right?"
"Indeed. Even now, that side is still under protection." Alice pointed in the direction of the Black Gate.
Sure enough, behind the Secluded Valley, the second half of the Forgotten Realm was still shrouded in darkness. Alice said, "I just removed some of the protection. Besides, it's been a long time since I've been exposed to the sun. It feels pretty good."
"I'm very happy that you think so, so what's your plan next?"
"First, I'll walk around and see what the world has become. Then, I'll come back here and live for another few decades before going to sleep." Alice said indifferently, "I'll continue to wait, waiting for the person the creator mentioned to come. After handing over the Black Gate of Canon to him, I'll have completed my mission. I think I can have a good sleep then, right? "
"Sounds like a good plan."
"What about you?" Alice asked.
Allen looked at the sky, from where he could vaguely see the outline of a planet. "I came to Agares to build my own force, a force that can guarantee my freedom and not be interfered with. Now that I've done it, I should be like you. I'll go back to my homeland and see some familiar faces before making any plans. "
"Then you have to worry." Alice said, but didn't say what to worry about.
