Chapter 139: Family’s Concern

After seeing Lugh agree, Xu Dahai was also very happy.

Xu Dahai was born as a commoner. Although he entered the Divine Beast Academy and showed his talent, he was still isolated by the well-born, and even some aristocratic children.

Xu Dahai had always thought that Lugh was born as a commoner, so he felt sympathetic towards Lugh. He even treated Lugh as a friend.

His thoughts were very simple. Lugh must have been isolated and ostracized by the class just like him. He didn’t have anywhere to go on such a holiday, so he specially invited Lugh to go home with him.

Lugh didn’t need to pack his luggage. Anyway, these things had already been prepared in the rune space.

He and Xu Dahai sat on the camel bus.

It was important to note that the buses here, including the so-called subways, were not buses or subways in the true sense of the scientific world.

Instead, they were transportation methods constructed by Rune Masters or Beast Masters of the Illumination Empire using runes and divine pets.

For example, the earthworm subways from before were actually riding on a very large earthworm. This type of earthworm had a docile character and was very fast underground. All of them had been developed by Beast Masters to be similar to subways.

The bus in front of them was a large camel that could carry many passengers.

On the camel bus, other than the students, there were also some Rune Masters and commoners.

Lugh couldn’t help but sigh with emotion. The gap between the Simon Empire and the Illumination Empire…

Although there were still class conflicts in the Illumination Empire, the living standards of the commoners were not bad. They also had independent human rights and could live freely in the Illumination Empire.

After turning into the earthworm subway, it took about an hour and a half to return to Termite Town with Xu Dahai.

It was sunset at this time.

Looking at the iron-sheet houses in Termite Town, the black smoke from the chimneys, and the golden wheat waves in the paddy fields, Lugh felt like he was looking at a medieval pastoral oil painting.

When he came to Xu Dahai’s house, Lugh saw Xu Dahai’s mother and sister.

Her sister rushed up and hugged Xu Dahai. “Brother, why did you come back so late? Brother Meka from next door has long returned.”

“Haha, it’s brother’s fault for making Xiaoxiao wait for so long!”

Xu Dahai laughed loudly.

Xu Xiaoxiao threw herself into Xu Dahai’s arms and hugged his waist. She buried her head into Xu Dahai’s chest and muttered, “On account of your sincere apology, I’ll forgive you then!”

“Hahaha, okay, okay, okay. Xiaoxiao is indeed the most generous!”

Xu Xiaoxiao greeted Lugh affectionately, “Big Brother Lugh, I missed you too!”

After spending a few days with Lugh the last time, Xu Xiaoxiao had a very deep impression of this incomparably handsome big brother of hers.

She had never seen such a good-looking person in Termite Town.

Not to mention Termite Town, among the Nine Great Empires, there were probably only a few who could be compared to Lugh in terms of looks!

Xu Dahai’s mother, Hestia, dried her hands on the apron and shook hands with Lugh.

“You guys came back just in time. The food is already prepared.”

“Xiaoxiao, come and get the rice. You guys go wash your hands and start eating.”

Sitting on the table, Lugh held the rice and looked at the meat of the Demonized Sparrow on the plate. He felt a little helpless in his heart!

Could this be the Demonized Sparrows he had hunted last time?

But after thinking about it, Lugh immediately confirmed it.

This was the Demonized Sparrow he had hunted last time.

There were only two ways to eat Fierce Beast meat in Termite Town. One was to go to the town to buy it. There were shops in the town that specialized in selling Fierce Beast meat, and the other was to go to the wilderness to hunt Fierce Beasts.

But no matter what, it wasn’t something the Xu Dahai family could afford.

Because the meat of Fierce Beasts was very expensive, the Xu Dahai family didn’t have so much money to buy it. They had rarely eaten Fierce Beast meat before.

As for Hestia and Xu Xiaoxiao, they were just ordinary people. If they weren’t Beast Masters, it was even more impossible for them to hunt Fierce Beasts.

Therefore, the Fierce Beast meat on the plate now could only be the Demonized Sparrow that Lugh had killed when he came to Termite Town last time.

It had been a month, and they still hadn’t finished eating?

No, it wasn’t that he hadn’t finished eating.

It was that Xu Dahai’s mother and younger sister simply couldn’t bear to eat it. Instead, they chose to marinate the meat of the Demonized Sparrow, occasionally eating a little.

Lugh suddenly felt a little regretful. When he had left the Mysterious Fantasy Mountain training ground, he should have brought back a corpse of a Fierce Beast.

Hestia very considerately added a piece of meat to Xu Dahai and Lugh’s plate. “How are your studies in school?”

“Not bad!”

“How are you getting along with your classmates?”

“Not bad.”

“How’s Lugh?”

“Getting along very well!”

Lugh felt a trace of warmth in his heart from Hestia’s concern for him.

In his previous life, he had been an orphan. It had been difficult for him to survive in the metropolis. It hadn’t been easy for him to achieve something, but he had never experienced kinship.

Xu Dahai’s family made him feel a family affection that he had never felt before.

Lugh recalled his classmates who had been beaten by him and lied, “The people in the school are pretty good. They are also very friendly to us!”

The reason why he lied was that he did not want to make Hestia worry.

He also knew that Xu Dahai was not as good as she had imagined in the class. The conflict between different classes still existed.

However, compared to Lugh, Xu Dahai was much better.

“That’s good, that’s good. Study hard and don’t give yourself pressure. It’s good that you can graduate normally.”

Hearing Lugh’s answer, Hestia was very happy.

Her son being able to enter the Rune Academy was already a very happy thing for her. She had been worried that Xu Dahai would be bullied by the noble students in the school, but after hearing Lugh’s answer, Hestia was relieved.

“Brother, when can we move to the city?”

At the dining table, Xu Xiaoxiao looked at Xu Dahai with expectant eyes, her big eyes shining with hope!
