Is it Okay if I Leave it Like This? (1)

When we arrived at Aunt Aja's house, we heard a loud noise from inside. Is someone here but me?

I pushed the door slightly and it was open, probably because someone had come and gone several times.

“Is the young couple here?!”

“What day is it today? Why are you all gathering?”

In the small house, all the villagers gathered around and sat around. Oh, I looked and there is only the village chief missing.

“Everyone gathered because they were worried about the village chief. Did the young couple come because of it?”

“Yes. Well, yes.”

Everyone's faces were full of water. I couldn't sit because we didn't have enough chairs, so I leaned my butt on the table.

“The young couple has also come, so that's why… Why not ask the granddaughter to come one more time?”

“Hey! Don't say that! She is not a girl who comes just because we said that.”

“Didn't she leave because of the big fight with the young bride?”

Yes. Yes. She was a married woman trying to do something to another man, but she failed, and she got caught and I ripped off her hair. She will never come back. If it were me, I would cut my hair and go into the mountains.

Only meaningless words continued without a clear conclusion. What should we do to the village chief, the only words of concern are that he will get sick from this.

“Aunt Aja, isn't there a medicinal herb that will give you energy and strength when you eat it?”

“Where do you want that?”

Aunt Creta said with a smirk. But Aunt Aja waved her hand.

“They are everywhere, there are medicinal herbs that are good for the body.”

“Can you get it?”

“Even if you sell half of this village, you can't get it in the capital. It's expensive.”

Well, people wouldn't just leave the herbs that are so effective lying around. You and I will want to have it, but how much would it cost?

“But you can get it for free.”

“What? Can I get it here?”

It was a story I never thought of. How do you get those expensive things in this country village?

I couldn't believe her at all, so I leaned forward and looked at her, but Aunt Aja continued her words casually, saying, 'If you go in front, there's a persimmon tree'.

“There is an old thing growing on the mountain above the house where the young couple lives. I've only seen it once. It was Aunt Lette who ate it as medicine.”

“Huh? Was that it? Somehow, her knee got better. Uhm, what does it look like?”

Come and read on our website wuxia worldsite. Thanks

“The medicinal herb is only one plant and it is soft and blue like a foxtail.”

“Where have you been?”

Now, as I pulled my butt off and jumped in eagerly, Aunt Aja began to wave her hands to stop me.

“Don't even think about going to pick it up. On the other side of the mountain, I was lucky enough to see it when I was young. And if the sun goes down quickly, it will be dangerous if you go up there. I made up my mind to go back, but it's not there anymore.”

But Aunt Aja's words of dismay were not engraved on my heart. I glanced out the window and saw that the sun was still shining. Wood cutting had already been done by Merson, so there was nothing to do.

If we don't overdo it and when it gets dark, we just have to come back. My heart was already firm.

“It's a medicinal herb, or is there anything else that can cheer the village chief?”

We're back to square one again. Uncle Paul exclaimed loudly as if he was tired.

“Ah, a party is the best thing to cheer up.”

“Party?”

“It's the best if you lay out delicious food and dance or, what was it?”

“Catch some ducks too.”

The atmosphere quickly shifted to “Let's have a party!” It was a party for the village chief, with all the things the village chief might like.

“I wish I could see the fireworks. The village chief recounted the story he first saw decades ago.”

“There are no wizards, and there are no magic tools, so we need to find them.”

“I'm just saying this because it's regretful, how regretful.”

The sparks of this world were, in other words, a magic show. After shooting the picture that the wizard had envisioned into the sky with magical power, when it explodes according to the signal, it becomes a firework.

However, in this world where wizards are very rare, the chance to see fireworks in a country like this is only one chance in a thousand years.

I suddenly rolled my eyes and looked at Merson. Exploding fireworks requires a lot of magic, right? Hmm… He's already having a hard time… yes.

Then Merson looked at me as if he felt my gaze. Our eyes met. I couldn't think of anything else to say, so I smiled at him. What are you looking at, child?

“I can do it.”

“Huh? What does that mean?”

What do you mean? Merson spoke calmly as if it was not a big deal.

“It's just a spark, is it.”

My eyes got bigger, you, really?

Merson looked at me and smiled. It's like saying, 'Didn't I do well?'

The villagers became very excited when they realized that Merson possessed some magical supplies.

“If there is a firework, it is perfect! Then please! Let's all prepare our work and hold a party in three days.”

The enthusiasm of the villagers overflowed with just one story about the fireworks. I couldn't even stop Merson from saying no there.
