Chapter 15: CHAPTER 15: FINALLY MEETING THE IMPORTANT CHARACTER
After that, three days had passed.
During this period of time, Fang Li's treatment was no longer as poor as it was at the beginning.
Although it was still the same as before, because of his Wanderer's identity, Fang Li had to do some work. However, those Bushis no longer treated Fang Li as poorly as they did before.
Of course, it didn't mean that the Bushi's attitude towards Fang Li had improved. It was only because of Fang Li's performance that day that made these Bushis understand that Fang Li was not someone to be trifled with.
In order to achieve victory, Fang Li was willing to risk having his arm severed. His audacity and recklessness caused the timid Bushis, who had always been cowering in Aragane Station and dared not challenge Kabane to instinctively feel a hint of fear toward this guy.
As a result, the Bushis no longer mocked Fang Li in front of him. They kept their distance from Fang Li, except when it came to work-related matters that needed to be addressed. They no longer had any contact with Fang Li.
Fang Li was actually quite happy about this and had no objections.
In fact, if Fang Li wanted to leave, he could do so anytime. He didn't have to stay among the Bushis just for his daily meals.
When entering the Dungeon World, the Main God's Dimension did not provide an exchange function. The main Divine Envoys could only exchange in the Main God's Dimension.
The only exception to this rule was currency exchange.
In the Dungeon World, the main Divine Envoys could use Exchange Points to exchange for the required currency based on the current world's currency value.
In such a situation, with 5600 Exchange Points, Fang Li could at least ensure that his basic needs were met, even though he couldn't be considered living a luxurious life.
However, Fang Li chose not to do so.
There were two reasons why he didn't choose to do so.
Reason One: This exchange was one-sided, where only Exchange Points could be used to exchange for currency, but the currency couldn't be sold back to the Main God's Dimension to obtain Exchange Points.
Therefore, basically, no one would be willing to spend Omnipotent Exchange Points to exchange for a pile of currency that would become useless once they left this world.
Reason Two: Only by staying among the Bushi could Fang Li have a better grasp of the situation.
Until now, Fang Li still didn't know the exact time when the plot officially started.
So, Fang Li believed it was necessary to blend in among the Bushis. If something happened, the Bushis would definitely be the first to receive the news.
For this reason, Fang Li had to mix with the Bushi and stay informed to understand the current situation.
Once he heard the news of a Hayajiro entering Aragane Station, Fang Li would definitely go there immediately.
Fang Li remembered that on the day the plot started, during the daytime, a person in the Hayajiro entering Aragane Station would be falsely accused of being a Kabane and then shot.
Even if he didn't know the exact day the plot began, with such an obvious plot point, once Fang Li saw it, he would understand when Aragane Station would fall.
However, three days had passed, and despite several Hayajiro trips, that event had not occurred.
Fang Li could only suppress his growing impatience and could only continue to wait with a helpless expression on his face.
Moreover, Fang Li's life was not dull during this process.
At least, after the Martial Fight Gathering, Konochi Kurusu would come to find Fang Li almost every day for three days.
Today was no exception.
During the lunch break and class change, on the way to the cafeteria, Fang Li was startled by Konochi Kurusu, who appeared out of nowhere.
Ignoring Fang Li's startled expression, Konochi Kurusu went straight to the point.
"Is your injury healed?"
The corner of Fang Li's mouth twitched as he desperately resisted the urge to roll his eyes, and replied irritably, "How long has it been since then? How could it have healed so quickly?"
In fact, Fang Li's injury had long since healed.
After the Martial Fight Gathering that day, Fang Li poured some of the Injury Healing Potion onto his injuries and healed them.
However, Fang Li didn't admit that his injuries had already healed to the outside world.
It was all because of Konochi Kurusu's constant pestering.
"I mean, seriously?" Fang Li continued with his annoyed tone. "I only used a little trick to win against you once. There's no need for you to hold a grudge till now, right?"
"I… I'm not holding a grudge!" Konochi Kurusu glared at Fang Li when he heard his words and spoke somewhat insincerely, "I just want to have another fight with you."
"In the eyes of ordinary people, that's generally called holding a grudge." Fang Li patted his forehead, his voice filled with helplessness. "I know you have a high sense of pride, but I didn't expect it to be underestimated."
"Um…" Konochi Kurusu seemed speechless.
Seeing Konochi Kurusu in this state, Fang Li couldn't help but smirk.
It was not easy to see this strict and serious Bushi eating humble pie.
Just then, a pleasant voice sounded from behind Konochi Kurusu.
"Kurusu, so you're here?"
Hearing this voice, Konochi Kurusu slightly widened his eyes, and his expression became somewhat flustered as he turned his head.
When he saw the newcomer's appearance, Konochi Kurusu exclaimed in surprise.
"Lady Ayame!"
This address made Fang Li's eyes light up as he also raised his head and looked over.
Ahead on the path, a girl was slowly walking towards them. She was a young lady, roughly around Fang Li's age. She was dressed in luxurious attire. Her long black hair was flowing like a waterfall and was tied into a ponytail that hung behind her.
Among her hair, there was even a flower accessory.
As for her appearance, it was unbelievably exquisite.
At least, before coming to the Main God's Dimension, Fang Li had never seen such a beauty face to face.
Looking at the beautiful girl approaching with a leisurely pace, Fang Li spoke softly.
"Yomokawa Ayame."
――Yomokawa Ayame.
From her name, it could be seen that she was a blood relative of the Yomokawa family, which governed the Aragane Station.
This young girl was very likely to become the ruler of Aragane Station, taking over from her father, so it was not surprising.
And, this young girl was also an important Plot Character that Fang Li needed to protect in Main Quest 2.
"I didn't expect to encounter you here…"
Under Fang Li's gaze, Yomokawa Ayame also noticed him. After a moment of surprise, she bowed apologetically and said, "I apologize for interrupting you both."
"No, it's nothing." Konochi Kurusu quickly shook his head and replied, "We weren't discussing anything important. Please don't worry about it, Ayame-Sama."
Before Yomokawa Ayame could react to Konochi Kurusu's words, Fang Li's eye twitched slightly.
This guy, he clearly seemed so enthusiastic about bothering me…
