Creating a Different World - Chapter 2769
[Chapter 2769 Dinner]
“Are you here?” Solang, the grocery store owner, stood at the door, looking at Cohen and his daughter who had come down from the huge body of the earth dragon.
“Dad, is dinner ready?” Julian
stepped forward and took her father’s hand. “Yeah! I’ll be waiting for you.” Solang nodded, looking at Jia Zhengjin, his tone slightly sighing, “I haven’t seen you for a while, your temperament is different!”
“Uncle Solang.” Jia Zhengjin put away the earth dragon, and walked forward to greet the father and daughter in surprise.
There was no way, now he was playing the role of Cohen, and he had to communicate with the people around him from his perspective and identity.
“This.” Solang pointed to the Poké Ball in Jia Zhengjin’s hand, full of curiosity.
Julian was better, he had seen him use it when he was in Frost Dragon City.
Facing Solang’s gaze, Jia Zhengjin put the Poké Ball in his arms and said to him, “This is a magic prop, specially used to hold pets and mounts.”
“Oh, oh, this thing must be very expensive, right?” Solang asked, “And the earth dragon, how much did you buy it together?”
“This can’t be bought with money,” Jia Zhengjin shook his head, “The Poké Ball is a magic prop unique to our adventure team, and only formal members are eligible to obtain it.”
Solang thought for a moment: “Did you make it yourself?”
“No, a powerful magician gave it to me!” Jia Zhengjin replied.
“Oh~ Then you and Julian are childhood sweethearts, growing up together, do you have an extra one to give her?” Solang rubbed his hands, a little embarrassed, “If I have such a mount, I can feel more at ease on my way home every day.”
“Dad!” Julian hurriedly grabbed him, “What are you talking about? The value of this rare magic prop is inestimable. Cohen said that only formal members of the adventure group are eligible to obtain it. How can I give it away for free?”
“That’s for outsiders. You two grew up together and have such a good relationship.” Solang looked at Jia Zhengjin, “I treat Cohen as my own child. Now he has a promising future and has become the leader of the Holy Spirit Adventure Group.”
“Dad, don’t talk nonsense!” Julian hurriedly tried to pull his father into the house.
Solang is just like this. After all, businessmen are a little greedy.
But it is true that after Cohen’s parents passed away, Solang, as a neighbor, helped him whenever he could, which is also considered to be his utmost kindness.
For Jia Zhengjin, the Poké Ball is not a valuable item, and the same goes for the Earth Dragon.
So he took out the Poké Ball from his arms and said to Julian, “Although this thing cannot be bought with money, only formal members of the group are eligible to obtain it. But Uncle Solang is right, I’ll give you my Earth Dragon!”
After saying that, he gently threw it forward.
Julian quickly let go of his father’s hand and caught the Poké Ball, looking at Jia Zhengjin in surprise: “Really give it to me? Such a valuable magic prop. Then, what will you do?”
“I have other mounts for transportation.” Jia Zhengjin replied calmly.
“Sure enough, it’s still the Cohen I know. Even if his temperament has changed, he is still so kind.” Solang was extremely happy, turned around and grabbed Jia Zhengjin’s arm, “That’s right! We are actually a family, right? Come on, uncle has prepared a sumptuous dinner in advance, all of which are your two favorites. Come in!”
Jia Zhengjin was pulled into the house by Solang and pressed in front of the dining table.
There were indeed a lot of food on the table, all of which were the best food that could be prepared in the village.
“There is another soup, which will be out of the pot soon. You two wait a moment, it will be ready soon.” Solang turned and went into the kitchen to get busy.
Julian waited for her father to enter the kitchen, and sat next to Jia Zhengjin as usual. She held the Poké Ball in her hands and couldn’t let it go. She turned around and said embarrassedly: “Cohen, I’m sorry! But you also know Dad’s character. This magic prop is too precious. How about I return it to you?”
Although she said so, her hands had no intention of returning it.
“No need!” Jia Zhengjin didn’t care, “Just keep it.”
“Oh!” If she really wanted to return it, she would definitely not be so straightforward. Carefully
put the Poké Ball into the small cloth bag she carried with her, and stuffed it into her arms. Julian turned her head and looked at Jia Zhengjin’s profile, thinking secretly in her heart, I really didn’t expect that Cohen would have such a great future!
At that time, everyone called him the bottom of the world, the weakest adventurer, and he never got angry. Sometimes he would stand up to stop others from bullying him.
Who could have imagined that Cohen, who everyone thought would have no future and might be the weakest adventurer all his life, would have achieved what he has today!
The Holy Spirit Adventure Group, an adventurer organization that gathers all the powerful people from the surrounding five or six cities. Even the city lord and the president of the Adventurer Guild have to be polite to him.
The officials and nobles of the surrounding cities dare not offend him when they see him. He is the leader of all the powerful people in the surrounding area, the head of a group!
Obviously, not long ago, he was just following behind me, the weak Cohen.
Then I thought that he actually had someone he liked. Obviously, he would only run behind me before, and then smile foolishly.
A sour feeling rose in my heart, so I continued the topic on the road just now: “Cohen, who is the girl you like?”
“Didn’t I say it? I will know when the time comes.” Jia Zhengjin was a little uncomfortable with Julian’s burning gaze. He thought that the problems with Meili and Tatanil have not been solved yet, and there will be trouble here again? This unnecessary emotional problem must be cut off.
“Just tell me~” Julian said softly, “Or tell me what she looks like, I will guess it myself!”
“I don’t want to say it now, you will know when the time comes!”
“This sentence again. Will you die if you say it out?”
“No.”
“If you don’t, just tell me! I promise I won’t tell anyone.”
“You’ll know when the time comes!”
“.”
“The soup is here~” After a while, Solang came out of the kitchen with a large bowl of fish soup and quickly put it on the dining table, “This is also your favorite! Cohen rarely comes home today, so let’s eat as much as we want!”
“Thank you, Uncle Solang!” Jia Zhengjin picked up the bowl and chopsticks, “Then I’ll be polite.”
Julian was unhappy after asking for a long time without getting an answer, but after thinking about it for a while, she showed a proud expression again, secretly glanced at Jia Zhengjin, seemed to remember something, and smiled instantly.
“What did you talk about?” Solang looked at Jia Zhengjin, then at his daughter, and asked with a smile.
“Nothing!” Without waiting for Jia Zhengjin to speak, Julian immediately said, “Eat, eat.”
Seeing that his daughter’s mood improved instantly, Solang looked puzzled and his eyes fell on Jia Zhengjin.
Jia Zhengjin shrugged to indicate that he didn’t know, and focused his attention on the dishes on the table.
The three of them didn’t say anything polite, and they ate naturally like family members.
