The mountain roads in Akkad were quite rugged.
Luo Ya couldn't help but think as she sat in the slightly trembling carriage and looked at the setting sun in the distance.
It had been more than two hours since they left the village with Pamela Wine. In addition to the official road, there were two mountain roads in the village that led to the border of the Warren Mountain Range. One was rugged to the east, and the other was smooth to the west. Luo Ya and the others chose the western road.
It was against common sense to travel at sunset, but Xia Luote brought Luo Ya here to see the starry sky above the mountains, so it was fine to leave at dusk. However, Luo Ya found something strange.
"Do we need to be in such a hurry? Didn't you mobilize the people in the village to go hunting on the eastern front? We've already given the money to the prey, and you don't want it anymore? "
"Yes, I wanted to hold a bonfire banquet, but there isn't much fuel in the village in winter, so I couldn't hold it."
"Ah, that's true."
Luo Ya nodded in realization, then looked at Xia Luote in surprise. She didn't expect this young lady to understand the hardships of the people so well.
"I thought you were spoiled since childhood, but it seems I was wrong."
"I was when I was young, but I changed after Father got a strange lamp."
Xia Luote smiled bitterly as she recalled the events of a few years ago. Luo Ya held the teacup and blinked as she sipped.
"Lamp?"
"Yeah, it was about four years ago. It was a strange Requiem Lamp."
"Puff! Cough cough cough! "
The black-haired youth suddenly coughed when he heard Xia Luote mention requiem lamp. Xia Luote was shocked and quickly patted Luo Ya's back.
"Dear? Are you okay? "
"I'm, I'm fine. Hahaha, continue. What about the lamp?"
"Oh, that Requiem Lamp is a treasure that Father obtained from somewhere. Although it's a consumable item, the other party offered a rather low price for it. It's probably a friendly gesture from some family related to Sorofia. However, after obtaining that lamp, Father's requirements for me suddenly became stricter …"
The young lady who had been suffering for so many years finally found someone to talk to when she saw that her lover had finally found someone to talk to. She began to talk about her grievances bit by bit. From the Fringe to Twin Horn Harbor, the difficulties she faced along the way had left her at a loss but she had no choice but to grit her teeth and endure.
Luo Ya couldn't help but feel guilty when he heard the reddish-brown haired girl's story. Luo Ya was very familiar with requiem lamps. If he guessed correctly, the lamp Xia Luote mentioned should be the one he sold at a low price when he was in need of money.
What he didn't expect was that Bruce was the one who bought the requiem lamp. Furthermore, it seemed to have greatly affected Bruce's nurturing strategy for his daughter. Luo Ya naturally didn't expect that Xia Luote's life trajectory would be subtly altered.
As expected, the items in the system shouldn't be sold blindly. If a requiem lamp could change Xia Luote's life for the past few years, what about the other items?
Luo Ya was secretly frightened. In Xia Luote's eyes, he was worried for her. The young lady smiled sweetly and decided to change the topic.
"This mountain road is rather bumpy. Dear, how are you feeling?"
"Hmm? Ah, I'm fine. Although I don't feel much better, I can still bear the bumps. "
Luo Ya felt the carriage tremble as he spoke. Normally, the Sorofia Family's carriages were both shock-absorbing and shock-absorbing. Normally, when traveling on official roads, one wouldn't feel it at all inside the carriage. The trembling this time meant that the road conditions were rather bad. Of course, it was also because this was a small carriage.
The gemstone necklace fleet was too large. Naturally, they couldn't bring it to the mountains to see the stars. Therefore, the two of them switched to a smaller carriage. According to Luo Ya's observation, this was originally a single-person carriage. Although it wasn't crowded with two people, there wasn't much space left after they sat side by side.
As for why they sat side by side instead of across from each other, it was naturally Miss Xia Luote's idea. Luo Ya couldn't do anything about it and was powerless to resist.
As he thought about this, the carriage jolted again. Luo Ya's weak body couldn't help but sway. Xia Luote's eyes lit up. She pretended to inadvertently open her arms and let the young man fall into her embrace.
"Hmm? Dear? "
"Ah, I'm, I'm sorry."
Feeling the soft touch behind his head, Luo Ya hurriedly tried to get up. However, he didn't expect Xia Luote to reach out and hug him.
"Since you're here, don't move. If you can't sit properly, the two of you can hug each other."
"… You, sigh, forget it."
Looking at the playful smile on the red-haired girl's face, Luo Ya sighed helplessly. After experiencing it for the past few days, he had basically given up resisting.
