Chapter Thirty-ninth: Peaceful Daily Life

The afternoon wind was still noisy and unforgettable, and the flowers and trees along the road seemed to melt into the warm afternoon sunshine.

I walked along the stone path in the town, slowly passed the Rose Square, and wandered at the fork in the road.

Walking to the left, you will see the endless sea. The wind on the seaside is probably stronger than I imagined. If you stand there for a while, except for a big guy like Zach, everyone else will be blown up.

Going forward is Father Carter's church. Judging from the current weather, even I am drowsy. The unscrupulous priest must have been called by God a long time ago. In addition to feeling the solemn and sacred atmosphere, it is better to go back.

Do some work on the ranch.

Or, should I go to some places I haven’t been to yet?

"Marcus~ What's wrong with you here?"

At the other end of the road, a pink-haired girl in a dress ran over briskly, holding a rubber ball in her hand and walking towards me with small leather shoes on her feet.

"It's Popley!"

I greeted her warmly. It was a joy to meet this girl by chance when I was bored.

"I'm wandering around. Why are you here too?"

Before Purbury could speak, two little carrot heads emerged from behind her, greeting me one on the left and one on the right.

"Hello, big brother!"

Isn't this a church duo? I gave them temporary lessons last time, but I still don't know their names.

"You two are here too. I didn't ask you last time, what are your names?"

"My name is Yu!" the little boy said.

"I'm Mei~" the little girl also said.

"Haha, hello there~" I greeted quickly.

Purbury watched our interaction from the side and added.

"You are Grandma Ailian's grandson. She usually lives in the town. His sister Ellie is a nurse in Ore Town. You can see her when you get sick."

"Thank you, I still don't want to get sick if it's not necessary." I said covering my face.

"Mei is the granddaughter of Grandpa Mu Qi. She usually lives on the ranch with Grandpa. If you want to buy cattle and sheep on the ranch in the future, you can look for their ranch. And it's right next door to my house~"

"Okay, okay, I understand. It's my fault that I didn't go to you. I've been a little busy lately."

I could tell that Purberry was unhappy that I never came to see her after dinner that day. But I had no choice but to run the ranch (although I didn’t make any money) and act like a superhero at the same time.

(Although I almost lost my temper), my schedule is full every day (nothing is accomplished)!

"What are you playing, can I join you?" Since they are gathering here, there must be something going on, and I don't mind spending some time playing with them.

"We are going to play football, big brother, are you coming too?" Yu said jumping, raising the ball in his hand.

"Football, I'm the best at it, come on over!"

This activity is not a problem for me at all. As long as I exert one-tenth of my strength, I can convince these two little brats.

But Purberry said with a little worry: "Marcus, you have to be careful, they are both very powerful!"

I thought this was what Popley was saying to make them happy, so I didn't take it to heart and said confidently: "We are guarding the goal, you come and kick it, come on!"

I stood in the center of the square, using the lampposts on both sides as the goal area, clapped my hands, and gave them a hook.

"Then I can play football!" Mei walked forward full of energy and did some warm-up exercises.

It's quite cool, but unfortunately for professional players like us, it's not a threat at all...

"Tiger shot!"

Mei kicked a ball and put it into my arms with great force. My expression instantly changed to:

°(°ˊДˋ°)°!

"Brother, are you okay?" Mei ran over with concern.

I hugged the ball, climbed up from the ground, and said reluctantly: "It's over... no problem at all! Such a ball... is so childish, I can catch it with my belly!"

"As expected of a big brother! So awesome!" This time, the player came up and prepared to kick off, "Then let me get started!"

"An overhead volley shot!"

I saw the ball being moved lightly into the air, then jumping up on the spot, hanging upside down in the air, and hitting the ball with one kick.

That ball was aimed squarely at my... face?

"puff!"

"Brother, are you okay? Did I push too hard?"

"Hmph... at this level... I can catch it with my face at this level. You are far from good enough!"

"But Marcus, you have a nosebleed!"

"It's nothing!" I wiped away the nosebleeds and replied, "It's just the blood of youth!"

"So handsome! Big brother is so handsome!"

The two children cheered and expressed their admiration to me.

Ahhhhh!

But it hurts so much!

Why do these two kids have such murderous football skills!

When you grow older, can you kick me into the goal together?

Coach, there's a foul here!

"Hmph, I must have been cursed by the national football team... I don't believe it, I can definitely do it!"

I was cheering myself up secretly, and saw that the two children on the opposite side had already joined together and were close to the ball.

"Then big brother, let's do it together!"

"Come on... come on!"

I saw Yu breaking through with the ball from a distance, and a whirlwind blew on the ground, making the trees on both sides rustle.

Shot?!

I saw Yu hit a powerful and heavy long-distance shot, but at the critical moment it missed my ear and hit the lamppost next to me!

What a risk, we were almost breached!

But before I had time to feel relieved, the missed shot had already bounced out and flew back to Yu's direction.

But the angle is too high! No one can catch it! Especially these two children!

I saw Yu standing on the spot, bending down to form a hand bridge. Mei had appeared from behind him. She stepped on Yu's hand with her toes, and then used her shoulder to lend strength. Her whole body was already flying upwards.

in the air...

No, this move relies on the rebound of the goal...

"Triangle shot!"

With the help of the rebound force, the entire ball stopped in mid-air, and Mei reached the same height and kicked it up with a flying kick!

"puff!!!!!"

………

"Marcus, you're awake. It's great that you're okay~"

Strange ceiling.

I found myself lying in a completely unfamiliar place, with Purberry beside me shouting excitedly.

"Ah, it hurts... it's you, Purbury, where are you?"

I felt a heavy blow to my head, and what emerged in my mind was a picture of a ball getting bigger and bigger in front of my eyes...

"You have been unconscious for two hours. I sent you to the hospital. The doctor said it was just temporary dizziness and you can recover."

"Thank you for your hard work, Purbury, you were able to carry me to the hospital."

I said with some emotion that Purbury was still reliable at the critical moment.

"Hehehe~ It's nothing~"

Purbury lowered her head in embarrassment, and I saw her beautiful pink hair flying in front of me, exuding a refreshing fragrance, a bit like the summer sunshine.

"Are those two children monsters...I actually..."

"Yu and Mei didn't mean it, but it's really dangerous for them to play football. Gray didn't dare to play football with them since last year~"

"Hey! Is that so? Why are you playing games with them, Purbury?"

"I didn't say help them play football, I just helped them pick up the ball~"
