There are fewer people in Asa Academy recently. Even Suli, who works as a librarian, has to stay at home because his business is closed. You can imagine how desolate the place is.

But fewer people doesn't mean they don't exist at all.

Dean Asa, that particularly amiable-looking old man, has never been vague when it comes to making money.

Suli had no idea how Lanzhe passed the message to Dean Asa who was currently staying in Jiso Town.

Anyway, within two days, a letter came from the college saying that he and Cyril were required to register the next day.

Sully agreed.

The young man pretending to be a great soul magician still defended himself before reporting for duty.

"I don't do this for the monthly pocket money of one purple gold coin. I do it because - only when people have bread can they turn the poetry and distant places they imagine into reality."

"Therefore, even if we are re-entered into this absurd world, as long as we imagine a better future, no matter how absurd this world is, it will not be so difficult to accept," Suli said confidently.

Cyril complained to him: "For you, has the academy become synonymous with the absurd human world?"

"I didn't say that." Sully looked as if he was saying, 'This world is so tragic, and you have to expose it.'

Cyril: “Tsk.”

He was a little unhappy, but actually understandable.

After all, Sully had never considered going to school, let alone the expensive Element Academy.

When he was a librarian, the most he thought about was how long he would have to save his salary to support Cyril's studies.

Now that he was suddenly being led by "adults" to make a choice that he had never thought of before, Sully's behavior was not quite like his usual self, and Cyril felt that it was not unacceptable.

Moreover, Cyril now inexplicably felt that what Dietz had previously speculated about Sully's thoughts was indeed possible.

Ignoring those creepy remarks made by Dietz, to sum up, the central meaning of what Dietz said is: Sully is a pessimist, but he always appears very calm in front of others. His pessimism not only does not affect others, but also plays a guiding role in guiding others to become better versions of themselves.

Because of this characteristic, Sully will consider things very comprehensively when thinking about a problem. After all, his own nature will make him think of the worst, and as long as there are people around him who are also involved in the same event, he will take the initiative to guide the event to a good result.

With this way of thinking, Cyril felt that Sully had probably already imagined more than once the inevitable comparisons that would take place among his peers.

But Sully himself... is absolutely at the bottom of the food chain.

so……

Sully, who simply thought he could make an excuse, looked stunned when he saw Cyril reach out and pat his shoulder.

The dragon-blooded boy said with a firm face: "The Element Academy is not as scary as you think. I said before that anyone who dares to bully you must first step over my corpse."

Sully: “Hmm?”

Before Suli could react, the young man with dragon blood had already sat down cross-legged with a high-spirited look on his face and continued his cultivation.

Suli looked at Lan Zhe, who was sitting next to him and recording his words and laughing, with a confused look on his face.

"What does Cyril mean by this incomprehensible remark?"

"If you don't understand, how can I possibly understand?" Lan Zhe actually understood.

But he won't expose it.

Besides, no one can recognize that Cyril, who has dragon blood, has a very high ceiling for future growth.

There is such a person who actively wants to protect Suli and works hard to become stronger for him. It would be a miracle if Lan Zhe could expose him.

However, in order to avoid Suli who didn't know how to practice, and because Cyril felt bored while practicing, Lan Zhe decisively took out the purple gold coin he had taken not long ago.

"Go out and have some fun. If possible, you can go to the tavern at the east end of the street and buy something you need."

Suli was stunned for a moment: "You said it was a bar, what could a child like me need?"

Lan Zhe: "...Don't tell me you've never had a drink at this age."

"I'm really sorry I haven't had a drink before."

Before traveling through time, Suli, who worked as an outsourced worker, didn't need to participate in social events, so why would he drink alcohol?

When he was a student, he was never the kind of person who would try something just because he was curious about it.

Therefore, when other students were caught by the dean for secretly smoking in the toilet, Sully passed by calmly. He even commented: "Second-hand smoke is really harmful."

Lan Zhe looked at Suli's expressionless face when he spoke, and said helplessly: "In addition to the daily gatherings of mercenaries for drinking and chatting, the tavern actually also sells some elemental items."

"Alchemist, do you know?"

"Weapons and armor have always been the forte of those professionals." Lan Zhe originally wanted to take the initiative to provide Su Li with some alchemy items, but when he remembered his identity as the owner of the dark element, he immediately gave up the idea.

He decided that if the problem could be solved with money, he should not create any additional possibilities that might expose his identity.

Suli looked at Lan Zhe in surprise and said, "I have always believed that you element owners can only create relatively scientific things from unscientific things."

For example, dark elements may be related to dark matter.

Sully has always used his own logic to understand this world. After all, when Egbert used the element of light, he really mixed light and light and heat together.

At this time, an alchemist suddenly appeared...

Our understanding of the world should not be too one-sided.

After Suli figured it out, he asked Roy, "Does the bodyguard want to go out with me?"

Roy was reading a book. When he heard what he said, the pages of the book suddenly closed with a "snap" sound.

"It seems that the young master is very clear about who is the most discerning person in this family."

Suli's mouth twitched: "Don't make yourself sound like a lackey."

Then the two of them walked out of the small building together.

Mark, who cleaned the building when he had nothing to do and tried his best to keep the house clean and tidy, wanted to put the book that Roy had thrown on the table back on the bookshelf. However, because he had the bucket and mop in his hands, he had to move them in an awkward posture, which resulted in the book not being held firmly and falling directly to the ground.

At first glance, the literate Mark froze in place.

Lan Zhe didn't hear the sound of mopping for a long time. When he looked over curiously, he saw Mark turned his head with a stiff face and asked him: "Do you need to put the copy of Mr. Egg's record manual on the bookshelf?"

Lan Zhe: ???

Look at what's written in that book...

Sully once said: "Food is a necessity of life, but it can also be something that countless people fear."

Note below: There are slums in every city in this world, and these people are the ones who are most hungry for food.

And there are many geniuses among them who have high elemental affinity.

It's just that they are trapped in poverty and cannot rise.

Because this type of character does not have any light or dark elements, they are not accepted by the Church. Also, because of the so-called blood theory, they will be rejected by the nobles unless their talent reaches a certain level.

But that doesn't mean they are worthless.

As long as they can be provided with food that they desire, even if those people know that the food is "poisonous", they will understand that grabbing the spider silk thrown by the spider, who may be treating them as their own kind or as prey, is the best option when they have no other choice.

Lord Sully must have meant that something as common as food, which often has no value other than filling the stomach, has always been a necessity that humans cannot escape.

Lord Suli was apparently referring to food, but in reality he was just using this sentence to reflect the people of this world.

A character who cannot even master the materials necessary for human survival seems to be completely unnecessary to this world.

There is another section of comments below, but compared to the font size of the above, the notes are written much more sloppily, and it can be seen at a glance that the comments on the same paragraph were not written at the same time.

Now I realize that for Lord Sully, life has always been the most important thing.

Whether it's Naan or Roy.

Lan Zhe cares about Naan because they have been friends for many years.

Euphia is paying attention to Roy because he has the ability to be promoted to a three-star mercenary.

Adults' attention to them seems to be based on the initial logical criterion that "life itself is above all else."

Therefore, the lives of those people in the slums should also have profound value that I do not understand at the moment.

…

Lan Zhe couldn't help but feel creepy when reading the densely packed series of text records.

Don't forget, this is a book.

Just one sentence can be interpreted with so many words. Just think about how Suli would say a few words when he has nothing to do. Even Lan Zhe can't help but feel that these words are full of deep meaning...

The fact that this book with a blank cover, "No One Understands Lord Sully Better Than I Do", appeared in Roy's hands proves that Egbert has begun to spread it in a small circle.

What an outrageous behavior.

Lan Zhe felt a chill in his heart as he saw Egbert's increasingly perverted nature.

Mark's whole face was twitching constantly, and the next second he decisively passed the problem to Lan Zhe.

"How do you think we should deal with this, Lord Saint?"

Lan Zhe: "...How would I know if you ask me? Besides, you've never called me Saint Son before."

Mark continued to look at him with an innocent look on his face.

Lan Zhe coughed and patted his chest.

The man, trying to hide the noticeable acceleration of his heartbeat, had also learned a skill that every adult seemed to have at this time.

Play dead.

As long as I rot fast enough, no one can catch up with me!

"Just pretend nothing happened and put it back on the table."

Mark: "Wouldn't it be weird if everything except the table was cleaned?"

"Then why don't you just put it in the bookshelf, and when Roy comes back, tell him that you paid attention to not looking into his privacy and simply put the book back on the bookshelf, right?"

Mark said, "I don't think so." This is really a case of trying to cover up one's own guilt.

Lan Zhe actually thinks it’s not a good idea either.

The text in this book has made it very clear.

Egbert wants to stir up trouble, and he wants it to be big. If nothing unexpected happens, he also wants to recruit Roy into his partnership.

Look at Euphia, who is in Jisso Town.

Mark didn't believe that they had no connection.

"So what should we do? Join together?"

After Lan Zhe presented this option, which seemed like a problem but was actually not a problem, his eyes lit up a lot.

Lan Zhe thinks there is nothing wrong with it.

You can choose to join a gang if you can't beat them. Moreover, Egbert is so abnormal. If you don't keep a close eye on him, what if he affects others?

Although these words have a flavor of "The dog at home is going crazy, and if you don't pay attention, it may bite someone."

But Lan Zhe accepted it quickly.

I even think that the writing of "No One Understands Mr. Surry Better Than Me" seems to make some sense...

Lan Zhe wondered if there was something wrong with him, but he nodded firmly to Mark.

"Yes, that's right, we can definitely join the team..."

the other side.

Sully, who was visiting the pub with his bodyguard, actually felt a little guilty.

Not because there might be unexpected situations inside the tavern, but...

He is only 12 years old now!

Sully was still thinking that he would go home directly after buying the so-called alchemy tools and make sure not to take another look inside the tavern, when Roy next to him sneezed loudly.

"Do you have a cold?" Sully didn't realize that this was a deep concern from the two people at home. He was simply asking about Roy's health.

"No, the cold you are talking about is a disease that only happens to you," Roy said calmly.

Normal people who catch colds look calmly at the gorilla who doesn't catch colds and respond expressionlessly, "Oh."

Roy sensed a sinister atmosphere, but he couldn't put it into words.

Roy still needs some skills to read the air around Sully.

"arrive."

Sully looked up at the tavern that Roy was pointing at.

There were few people and the economy was in recession. The door of the tavern was open, and at a glance one could see that the only customers inside were two or three kittens.

In the past, when I passed by, the sound of guests clinking glasses with each other seemed as noisy as firecrackers.

Looking back now, the sound of cups colliding with each other seems more like the occasional deliberate creation of a musician. The crisp sound of cups colliding with each other passes through my ears, and it always feels more pleasurable than drinking a glass of cold barley wine.

It's just that this kind of atmosphere and the setting of the bar don't seem like a bustling place, but rather a quiet bar in modern society to relieve the restlessness.

Suli heaved a sigh of relief.

He actually can't handle a place that is too busy.

Roy took the initiative to lead Sully away, blocking the sight of those who were not discovered by Sully but who couldn't help but frowned and looked at him since he stepped in.

Roy knocked on the counter and said to the bar owner who was standing inside wiping the glasses with a clean rag: "Give me something good."

"With your ability, are you still interested in my alchemy tool?" The boss said this, but his actions to make money did not stop at all.

He moved several boxes out one after another directly from under the counter.

One of the boxes contained a large number of rings, and the others were mostly daggers, short swords and the like.

"Let's take a look."

"Most rings are protective gear, such as wind barriers, fire shields, and water shields."

"Your targeting of the water element remains the same as always." Roy glanced at his boss with boredom.

There are few people in Sadina who have not been cheated by the tavern owner, but after being cheated so many times, they become familiar with each other.

"That can't be helped. Most armor is only used to resist sudden attacks, but armor of the water element always has the property of extracting the air inside the shield."

Rings like these are the stuff of tavern heirlooms.

——In a negative sense.

Because it can't be sold at all.

When this alchemy tool was first made, the tavern owner simply thought that something should be made for each attribute... As a result, the Water Shield Ring has remained here ever since.

Roy had been cheated for so long that he had no intention of clearing out his boss's inventory for the time being, so his attention followed Sully and turned to the other boxes of weapons.

"Anything you're interested in?"

As for interest, Sully caught his eye at first sight the moment the boss brought over a few boxes.

It's not because of the quality, after all, he can't tell without the elements.

Sully was attracted by that thing because she thought it was perfect for Cyril.

It was a short sword that looked a bit like a magic wand.

The scabbard and the handle are both made of wood, and the wooden scabbard itself is a complete piece of wood. If the boss hadn't pulled the sword out of the scabbard early in the morning, making the metal part gleam in the warm light of the tavern, Suli might not be able to tell whether it was a magic wand or a dagger.

The appearance is in line with nature, and the staff is also the most commonly used weapon by ordinary elementalists. The dagger is more suitable for Cyril, who has awakened the bloodline of the monster and is destined to have a significant increase in strength.

Two uses for one thing, very worthwhile.

The boss also introduced: "This sword can withstand the elemental output of a mid-level elementalist of the three categories. For children, it is a very suitable weapon for excessive use of strength."

Suli made a decisive decision: "That's him."

The boss also laughed immediately: "Thirty gold coins, no bargaining."

Roy tapped the table with his knuckles: "You're still a human being, aren't you, you're using your robbery skills on my child?"

He looked at his boss and wondered if he was some kind of monster.

"That can't be helped. Who can ask the kids to like it?" The boss looked as if the customers' opinions were the most important.

Roy was dissatisfied: "No, 30 gold coins is still too much. When this little thing was made in Jizo Town, it was only sold for 10 gold coins at most."

"So what do you say we should do?" The boss felt that Roy had always been a difficult customer to serve.

When I first became a mercenary, I was very poor and became a two-star mercenary. I could upgrade to a three-star mercenary at any time, but I still didn't change my nature of stealing.

"Give me all your water-attribute rings."

When he came, Roy actually considered what kind of protective gear would be more suitable for Sully.

The conclusion is... nothing is suitable.

All elements are very lethal to Suli. For example, with Fire Shield, this kind of defense, not to mention whether it can defend against external attacks, Suli himself may be burned to death first.

The same is true for the wind element.

After careful counting, apart from the light element, only the water element is more suitable for Suli.

So, Roy asked for it directly and openly.

The boss doesn't mind either.

This ring, which has been in stock and cannot be sold, hurts his eyes every time it is placed in front of him. In this case, it would be a good idea to pack it up and give it to this child who has no elements.

What's more, there is also the premium for the dagger, right?

So it was a deal that both parties were satisfied with.

Before it got dark, Sully quickened his pace home with the packed box of daggers.

When he got home, Cyril had already come out of his meditation state and was sitting on the sofa, dazed as he sorted out the increasingly abundant wind elements in his body.

"I don't know why, but I always feel like I can fly."

Sully heard Cyril mutter these words as he opened the door.

As he placed the gift box on the table in front of Cyril in a natural manner, he also explained: "Perhaps your dragon ancestor could fly when he was born."

"So not long after you awakened your bloodline, you should have triggered some key information passed down in your genes. Well... according to the way this world talks about it, it's probably something like inheritance." Suli took out his working attitude after a long time.

When he was working as a game writer, it almost became Sully's instinct to make logical guesses about the aftermath based on different worldviews.

Sully pushed the box towards Cyril and said, "Don't think too much. Just know it's a good thing. Take a look at the gift I chose for you. I think it's very suitable for you."

Sully didn't notice that Roy's expression suddenly became serious when he found that the book he put down when he left was not on the clean table.

Just then, Lan Zhe, who was preparing dinner in the kitchen, waved at him.

When Roy entered the kitchen, Lan Zhe's first words were: "Do you mind if Mark and I join the team?"

"Oh, I think it's about joining the church."

Roy was stunned for a moment: "What?"

"I mean that book." Lan Zhe kept stirring the spoon in the pot and said calmly, "Isn't that book a copy of Egbert's previous book?"

"At first glance, the words between the lines are all about 'believe in Suli and gain eternal life'. Although the name Suli Church doesn't sound very good, compared with the Church of Light and the Church of Darkness, it is considered to have depth."

Roy's mouth twitched: "What are you talking about? Listen to what you say. Is it normal?"

"I mean, you don't have to hide it from me. If you want to make some changes to the world according to Sully's ideas..."

"It would be wrong for me not to participate in this kind of thing."

Most of the people in the Dark Church are influenced by the dark element, and basically everyone is a joker, and Lan Zhe is no exception.

Although I wanted to play dead at first and pretend nothing happened, but...

It would be a shame not to get involved in such an interesting thing.

Roy: “Huh?”

"You mean the book where the Egbert gang keeps praising Sully?"

"Didn't you notice that he was so shameless as to say that he was the only one who could understand Sully?"

Roy was speechless: "What Suli religion? I read that book just to better predict in my mind where to attack Egbert the next time we meet. This way, he will not affect the young master's growth environment so much."

Can you please stay away from Sully, pervert?

That was Roy's only thought.

Lan Zhe was so bored that he threw the spoon into the pot. He just turned around and questioned Roy: "So you guys don't want to turn the ideas in that book into reality?"

"For example?" Roy had nothing to do, so he felt that he needed to deal with Lan Zhe, who seemed to have a lot of problems in his head.

"Egbert wants to make the slums the root of his next new power or something like that."

Roy: “Is there such a thing?”

Lan Zhe: "What the hell did you read in that book? How come you didn't pay attention to the main point at all!"

Roy: "Ha, isn't the point that Egbert said that only he understands Sully?"

Lan Zhe took a deep breath.

In order to ease his desire to kill Roy, he explained again: "Egbert just wanted to be what Sully wanted."

"That is, whatever Sully wants to do, Egbert will choose to do it on his behalf."

"You can say that many of that guy's actions are particularly sick, but you can't deny that he knows Sully better than any of us."

After all, it was that lucky pervert who first used a gold coin to create a bond with Sully.

When others first met Suli, they all had a more or less playful attitude towards someone with zero element affinity.

They are the most ordinary people in this world.

It is human nature to look down on the weak.

Lan Zhe: "And now I suspect that Egbert's gang is still staying in Jisuo Town. In addition to wanting to whip the dead bishop after revealing his identity, they may also want to go deeper into the Monster Forest again."

"Sully has no prejudice against monsters, does he?"

Cyril, whose face still had scales that had not been completely hidden, often served as a proof of Sully's character to others.

Roy was silent about this.

He thought about it for five minutes before responding: "That can't be called Suleimanism. The child's sense of shame is as high as his sense of morality."

Lan Zhe really wanted to slap Roy on the head and roar: You thought about it for so long and only tell me this.

But seeing that he had already agreed, Lan Zhe gradually calmed down...

It was only at this moment that I noticed a strange smell coming from my nose.

"That." Mark swallowed his saliva, "Sir, the soup you cooked is mushy."

Lan Zhe mechanically turned his head to look at the burnt bottom of the pot, then stared at Roy again.

"Let's go outside the city tonight and have a fight to the death."

There was a lively scene of tearing in the kitchen, and outside the kitchen...

Suli said calmly: "When I first saw this gift, I thought it was very suitable for you."

"On the surface, you hold a staff and look like a mage who will be beaten up if you get close to him, but in fact, anyone who dares to get close to you will feel the pressure from the violent warrior every minute."

“It really suits you.”

Cyril has some very cautious qualities.

This comes from the years when I was a beggar.

Although Sully tried to guide her, the most he could do was to change Cyril's previous cautiousness into the current relative caution.

Therefore, this weapon, which can be used as a staff on the surface but can actually be used as a trump card, will make Cyril feel much more at ease.

Suli felt that he had paid too much for the growth of his little friend.

But seeing that Cyril really liked it, Sully breathed a sigh of relief.

——Being cautious also means being sensitive. If something that others want to hide or avoid is indirectly pointed out, it is very likely to hurt people.

It was a happy thing for Sully that Cyril did not notice and accepted the kindness.

Dinner was good.

Referring to the fact that Roy was kicked out of the house, Lan Zhe said that if he didn't buy ten dishes within half an hour, he wouldn't be allowed to come back.

In addition, today's staple food is still rice.

Double the happiness!

Although when they woke up in the morning and found that the scales on Cyril's face had completely disappeared, Lan Zhe rushed the two children to register.

According to Lan Zhe, "Without Dean Asa, Asa Academy not around, besides looking weaker, there are more places for students to explore. Have fun when you have time."

It’s best not to come back today.

Of course, this is not because I don't like the two children.

Instead, Lan Zhe needs to spend some time to tell Roy in detail and seriously what is in the book "No One Knows Lord Sully Better Than Me" and what is the key point.

Although after the two children went to school, when Lan Zhe was in the process of focusing on Roy, facing Egbert's perverted words, his mind couldn't help but start to imagine...

Next time we meet, should I slap you in the face or kick you in the butt first?

At the school.

The same elemental statues are still hard to describe, and the gate is so old that it doesn't feel new anymore.

Asa Academy covers a large area, but it was Suli's first time to enter the teaching area as a student.

In the past, librarians were like fixed NPCs who would only stay in the library.

The architecture of the students' teaching area is more like a church, but after Suli entered this area dedicated to students, he discovered that there was also an astonishingly large playground.

And, there is a small forest behind the teaching building.

The small forest at the back does not exist for early love, but is what Lan Zhe calls an explorable area.

Dean Asa raised some relatively dangerous monsters on that land in order to train students to be able to act in critical situations.

After all, except Suli, the purpose of everyone coming to this academy is to become stronger.

…

Sully and Cyril were put in the same class.

A class where you have to pay to get in.

It is said that most of the students here have no talent and rely on money to get in. Of course, there are occasional exceptions, such as Cyril, who has good ability but does not intend to separate from Sully.

But Cyril didn’t just rely on his physical strength, but also on Sully who had slipped him 10 gold coins early in the morning, saying that it was his pocket money for the month…

It smells really good.

What I didn't expect was that, because of height issues, Sully sat in the first row, while Cyril was crammed into the window seat in the back row.

Sully glanced down at the book on the table. Its fancy cover made him feel that he should go to the grocery store to get some paper and pen before reporting in.

After all, drawing in class is the beginning of artistic development!

The two students who joined the class were only given a brief chance to introduce their names after the element instructor came in, and then they were asked to sit back in their seats and start the class.

The teacher on the stage had short curly blond hair. He was holding a book that looked like a magic codex in his hand. His lecture style was very similar to that of an old scholar in modern society.

that is……

"The elements are nature, and nature is the elements. The practice of water, fire, and wind is in the rain, in the fire, and in the water."

“Except it’s not in the book.”

"The only value of books is to let you understand the basic usage of elements and the element refining circuits."

"Now, let's start the experiment according to the book."

Suli could understand all the words separately, but when they were put together, he felt that he was completely illiterate...

A bit suffocating.

However, after a while, the teacher called on students: "Sully, come and try the expression of elements."

The teacher probably only knew that two students had come, but because the students were admitted to a class that claimed that one could get in by paying money, he probably didn't learn about the two people in detail.

Therefore, Suli, who had no elements, was deeply suspicious after being called...

This money is not enough.

Then he let out a calm breath.

The blond teacher on the stage frowned and asked, "What are you doing?"

“Performance elements.”

When it comes to bullshit, Sully never loses.

“The wind is nature. The wind is something invisible and intangible that blows past your ears.”

"What you see is just me blowing a breath, but in reality, I am simulating the wind in nature."

"The wind exhaled from the mouth has a certain temperature, which can also prove the superposition effect of the power that the fire element can exert after cooperating with the wind element. As for the water element, as long as I close my mouth, I can most conveniently explain that water, the source of life, soothes the earth after it has been ravaged by wind and fire."

Still, I can understand each word separately, but I am confused when I hear them together.

But this time it was the teacher on the stage who was confused.

Suli: laugh.jpg

"Can I sit down, please?"

The blond teacher walked down the steps and waved decisively for him to sit down.

Then I found with an unbelievable look on my face that several students in the class suddenly began to practice immersive elements while sitting in their seats.

In layman's terms, they had an epiphany.

Um……

Um?!

The teacher immediately began to doubt whether he should also sit cross-legged to practice, otherwise he would appear to be out of place.

After dealing with all the problems, Sully didn't notice that the students sitting in the back row had gone from being indifferent to him to being surprised.

The librarian suddenly became a classmate, and with just three sentences, he gave five or six classmates an epiphany...

Sully was elbowed by a neighboring child.

"How did you do it?" The gray-eyed kid pouted at a person who had suddenly realized something behind him. "That idiot is still stuck at level one. Looking at the situation now, he might break through today."

Suli: …………

At this time, just smile.jpg

The morning classes were spent in Sully's nonsense and confusion. After eating the food in the college cafeteria that he was already tired of, Sully started the afternoon practical training class.

This is a one-on-one fight between students.

As for Suli, after discovering that his opponent was selected by lottery, he lay down particularly quietly.

On the training ground.

The one Suli drew, [豈], found that his opponent was already lying on the ground before launching the water element attack, with his hands folded in front of his chest, his eyes closed, and a peaceful smile on the corner of his mouth.

huh:???

The author has something to say:

Okay, I’ll update more.

(I am really the kind of honest person who will update more if urged) (bushi)
