Green took a bite of the shy fruit and patted down his startled state, while also uncrossing his legs that were propped up.

The disappearance of the attribute panel meant nothing to Green, but what concerned him more was why it suddenly disappeared.

Based on his initial speculation and intuition, the attribute panel should exist inside him in a form similar to superpowers, and it should be easily accessible.

But now it completely disappeared, leaving Green at a loss.

From the situation just now, the attribute panel disappeared suddenly within a short period of time, and during that moment, the power representing the attribute panel continuously dispersed and weakened, giving Green a feeling as if he fundamentally lost its stability.

Or, one could say that this inexplicable power that was born had already been impressive enough to maintain stability for such a long time. However, these were just Green's conjectures, and further research might be needed to determine the exact reason.

But Green was not interested in that, so he let it go.

"What happened?"

"Nothing much, I just suddenly thought of the leveling magic array at the adventurer's guild."

"Oh, that's quite a coincidence. I know a bit about that leveling magic array too. The Lagrange ore that produces the leveling effect for that magic array, Sofia and I discovered it together back then."

"Oh?"

Hearing Rom's words, Green suddenly remembered something and rummaged through his portable space for a while. Less than two seconds later, a small rock appeared in Green's hand.

Rom blinked when he saw the ore in Green's hand.

"I remember the Lagrange ore was also used as proof of identity for adventurers. This one in your hand should be the Lagrange ore, I shouldn't be mistaken."

"Indeed."

Green played with it for a while, vaguely remembering that when he injected energy into it, his inner source energy seemed to resonate with this stone.

"Where did this come from?"

"Found it in a meteorite crater."

"Um... a meteorite crater?"

"Yes, want to hear the story? What happened back then."

"Whatever."

Green replied indifferently. Although he was curious about this thing to some extent, he had seen many fascinating things and naturally wouldn't show an overly excited expression.

Rom ate a shy fruit uninterestedly.

Mio was still happily picking shy fruits.

This time, Green put away his crossed legs, laid down on his back in the air, and the warm sunlight shining on him made him yawn contentedly.

"Speak, I'm listening."

"..."

Rom took a bite of the shy fruit and resisted the urge to complain. His gaze became lazy in an instant.

"At that time, Sofia and I were chasing shooting stars in the sky, and then we found the Lagrange ore where the shooting star fell."

"..."

"..."

"Why did you stop talking?"

"That's it."

"..."

Green sighed, stood up straight, and caught the shy fruit Mio threw to him. He was about to instinctively put it into his portable space, but he stopped in time.

"Where should I put it?"

"On the ground is fine."

............

Soon, it was noon.

With Mio's help, picking these shy fruits was much more efficient than Rom expected.

"I didn't expect them to be picked in just one morning. When I issued the request, it was counted by the number of trees. If my old partner was still alive..."

Green was about to ask instinctively, but he stopped himself and ultimately said nothing.

"Well, old man, we'll take our leave. If the king comes, remember to say some good things about me."

"Don't worry, I will."

Looking at Rom's perfunctory expression, Green was really worried that he would reveal his laziness. If the king caught onto this and didn't let it go, it would eventually cause some trouble.

Afterwards, Rom wanted to invite the two of them to have a meal, but they both declined.

Of course, that was obvious. While picking, Mio couldn't help but sneakily eat several fruits. Although Rom knew about it and didn't mind, he even gave them some more before they left.

Walking on the streets of Faersterdam, Green couldn't help but sigh at the tranquility of this country.Apart from the elves, there are many half-elves mingling with humans inside the city. It is clear that this country is quite accepting of half-elves. However, at this moment, a person wearing a black cloak came towards them. Green, who was focused on Mio, accidentally bumped into the person, causing them to fall to the ground.

Insurance fraud?

That was Green's first reaction. However, he also knew his own strength and generally, no one could knock him down in a collision like this. So Green quickly apologized and reached out his hand.

"Sorry about that. You weren't watching where you were going."

"Thank...uh?"

The person in the cloak seemed surprised that Green would say such a thing. Their voice and the hand suspended in the air clearly hesitated for a moment before retracting and then they themselves stood up from the ground.

"I'm sorry."

The person in the black cloak dusted off their clothes. Their gaze, hidden within the cloak, scanned Green for a moment, before they turned and left. However, Green watched their back and felt that their presence was somewhat familiar.

But it wasn't the kind of familiarity one would have with an acquaintance, it was a different kind of indescribable familiarity.

In any case, it felt familiar.

However, Green didn't pay too much attention to it and quickly arrived at their second destination with Mio.

Coincidentally, most of the tasks assigned to Green by the king were related to plants. Although these daily chores were somewhat tricky due to their magical properties, with Mio's help—absolutely no pressure at all!

However, this was their thought before arriving at the final location.

"Help Granny Li, who has difficulty walking, collect silver tendon mushrooms."
