Chapter 39 Free People (Part 1)

On the second day after returning to the town, snowflakes floated over the town of Rika again. Romon stood in front of the window of the room on the second floor, admiring the snow scene with great interest.

Although this is already the fifth snowfall in Rika Town this year, and it may also be the last snowfall in spring, Romon is still in high spirits today. Taking out a roast duck and a bottle of Moutai from the space, this is the snow scene, and Luo Meng started to eat and drink.

Being able to officially become a level 2 druid was a big change in his life. The gap between the first level and the second level is only one and two, but in reality, it is very difficult to pass.

Not only for Druids, but also for other professions. It is very difficult to improve each level (except for warriors who are slightly inferior), and each improvement also represents an increase in status.

In fact, when Romon reaches the first level of druid, he should be regarded as a professional. After all, he has registered with the Adventurer's Guild and his identity has been confirmed.

However, because of his debts, he is still not a free man, and it is impossible for a non-free man to become a professional. This is something that has always troubled him.

But now, all his debts have been paid off. As long as he obtains the status of a free man, his professional status will be recognized in advance by the lord.

With this identity, even if the tax officer Bakar and others try to make things difficult for him, it will no longer be an easy task.

Recalling the surprised and disbelieving expressions of the tax officer Bakar and the priest when they saw his second-level mark, the corners of his mouth twitched upwards.

That's right, who would have thought that a kid who was abandoned by the teacher without any background could improve his strength so quickly by himself? They must not have thought of it?

After taking a hard bite of the roast duck, Romon began to wonder whether his status as a free man could be successfully passed.

At the same time, in the baron's castle not far from Rika Town, a middle-aged man with a somewhat bloated body was sitting in a warm room, flipping through the account books.

"Guess who I am?" A pair of warm little hands suddenly caught his eyes.

The middle-aged man said dotingly: "Let me guess... well, it's my little girl, isn't it?"

"Father, you guessed it right again!" The girl with an angelic face pouted, retracted her hand coquettishly, and came out from behind.

"Alini, shouldn't you be reading at this time? Why did you come to father?" The middle-aged man, the lord of the land in Rika Town, asked the baron curiously.

Alini smiled and handed a roll of kraft paper to her father. The baron opened it curiously, and after a closer look, he realized that it was some personal information of Romon.

"Romon? Has he reached the second level of druid?" The baron looked at it, and was very surprised by the other party's talent.

"Yes, father, and all the debts he owed have been paid off, I think, should we grant him the status of a free citizen?" Alini suggested.

"Really? Then give it to me." For his little daughter, the baron has always been very fond of him, and bestowing the status of a free citizen on a person who has already been recognized by his profession is simply the simplest and most reasonable thing.

"Thank you, father." Alini put her arms around her father with a smile, and kissed that loving face.

"It's already the third day. I don't know if Miss Alini has told the baron about my situation. I don't know how it is..." In a room on the second floor of the Mott Hotel, Romon was anxious at this time. waiting.

The initial excitement has almost disappeared with the passage of time, replaced by tormented waiting.

Romon knew very well how important the status of a freeman was to him. Different from the geographical boundaries on the earth, in this world,

As long as you have obtained the status of a free citizen, as long as you don't leave the country, you can live freely anywhere in the country. Just show the freeman's certificate and go through the registration procedures at the place.

If he wants to live a better life, he must work hard to make himself stronger and improve his status. And a person who does not even have the status of a free citizen is neither eligible nor possible to obtain the above-mentioned ones.

He must become stronger, and this free identity is the first step for him to become stronger.

free. This matter that he hardly had to think about in his previous life, in this world, threatened him all the time. Without the status of a free citizen, even if he obtained the certificate of a second-level druid, he would still encounter a lot of trouble, unless he became a fifth-level druid. Druids automatically obtain the rights of freemen that are common across the continent.

But now, without the status of a free citizen and without enough power, there will be countless troubles out of thin air in the next few years. The biggest trouble is that he is not free to go where he wants to go. For a druid who needs to constantly find new types of plants to increase his strength, the impact on future promotion is almost fatal.

Thinking of the hostility towards him from priests and tax officials, Romon's sense of crisis was unprecedentedly strong.

"Romon!" Just as he was thinking wildly, someone downstairs suddenly called his name.

"Here we come." Romon shook his head, quickly tidied up his messy clothes, and came out of the room.

"Romon, just now the temple asked someone to come over and let you go there." Knowing that Romon has become a second-level druid, although Mott's name for him has not changed because of Romon's insistence, but his attitude , has become more enthusiastic than before. Seeing him coming down the stairs, he quickly conveyed the other party's words.

"Did you say who was looking for me?" Romon walked down and asked.

"It's Miss Alini!" Mott rubbed his hands and said.

Romon immediately understood that it must be because of his status as a free citizen, and reluctantly waited for Mott to finish speaking, then thanked him and ran out.

He walked out of the temple almost quickly, but when he was about to enter, Romon stopped again.

"You can't let people find faults..." Luo Meng knew that the more he was at this moment, the more he had to be calm. He relieved his nervousness, and then checked his clothes again to see if there was any uncleanness. After it was done, he walked in slowly.

"Romon, you're here." Alini, who was wearing a priest's female robe, seemed to be wearing thin clothes because of the priest's spell, but she was not afraid of the cold. At this time, she was standing in front of the garden of the temple, admiring the flowers that were still blooming brilliantly because they were surrounded by divine arts. When she saw Romon coming in, she immediately turned around with a smile.

"Miss Alini, I kept you waiting." Romon immediately returned a bright smile to the other party.

Infected by Romon's smile for a moment, Alini laughed even happier.

"Do you know why I asked you to come here?" Alini laughed, and she actually made a fool of herself.

Perhaps she didn't even realize that at this time, she made an exception to show her lively and mischievous side in front of outsiders.

"This..." Romon was stunned by the other party's sudden cute smile, and was at a loss for words for a while.

It wasn't until this moment that Miss Alini realized her gaffe. She felt slightly annoyed, and at the same time took out a document from her bosom, and handed it directly to Romon: "Here, from now on, you are a free citizen , unimpeded, travel across the country, travel on business, and enjoy all legal rights!"

The document is parchment, marked with his name, gender and occupation, and the signature of the lord.

"With this document, you can file it in the Adventurer's Union, and inject new information on the Adventurer's Union brand, so that you don't have to take out the original document again and again." Miss Alini was more familiar than him, and said.

Romon nodded, took out the adventure card, looked carefully, and found that the adventure card was really similar to the previous ID card.

However, Luo Meng is very clear that this kind of adventure card has energy settings, and most of the identity documents in this world have special magic instruments. In comparison, it was actually more difficult to forge than those documents on Earth, at least before the fifth level, it was impossible, which was why he had to obtain the status of a free citizen.

"Thank you, Miss Alini, thanks to you this time." With just one glance, Romon carefully put away the documents and tags, and then thanked Miss Alini.

"You're welcome." Miss Alini said with a smile. "Oh, by the way, I almost forgot about this." As if thinking of something, Miss Alini suddenly took out another roll of kraft paper and handed it to Romon without looking at it. "Take a look, what is this?"

Something else? Luo Meng took the roll of kraft paper, opened it, and after only a few glances, a surprised expression appeared on his face. "this is……"

"This is the certificate of permission to open a store in Rika Town. I knew you wanted to open a store, so I asked for it together. I hope it can help you." Miss Alini smiled again.

Ha, this is simply what you want. At this moment, Romon really wanted to hug him and kiss him. However, he still held back, but his tone became more cheerful: "Thank you so much, Miss Ai Lini, you are such an angel!" As soon as the words of praise came out, the other party blushed immediately.

"Actually, you don't have to thank me too much. I just did it with a little effort. What's more, the conflict between you and him was also caused by me, so...you don't have to thank me so much." Miss Alini blushed, suddenly Said, and then smiled mischievously. "In short, you have to run the store well, and don't shrink back because of a little setback."

Luo Meng nodded hurriedly, seeing the other party turn and leave, he still stood where he was, and didn't wake up for a while. Miss Alini knows everything? She knows all about it?

That's right, how could such a smart person fail to guess the reason after sensing the pastor's hostility towards him!

It's just that this angelic girl, under her quiet and delicate appearance, is afraid that she still has a smart, strong and intelligent heart, right?

Romon thought secretly.

"By the way, a small banquet will be held in the temple at noon tomorrow to celebrate your obtaining the status of a free citizen and a second-level druid. Don't be late."

The clear and pleasant voice was brought by the wind, and Romon looked up, and saw Alini smiling sweetly among the flowers, waved to him, and then left gracefully. He stared blankly, and it took him a while to come back to his senses. Then, with two proofs in hand, he left the temple excitedly.

At the same time, in a corner that Romon couldn't see, a young priest stuck his fingernails into his flesh.

"Romon..." He whispered the name in a low voice.
