Chapter 189 - Chapter 189 My Name is Huì Huì, Begging for Food and Drink

"I'm just looking, don't mind me, just pretend I'm air." Xia Wei smiled. Although he had completely reined in his divine aura, his appearance was still too transcendent, naturally attracting attention.

"Oh, oh, you, please go ahead." Luna was disappointed. She had originally thought of using work as an excuse to interact more with the handsome young man, hoping that he would become immersed in her gentle older sister demeanor and then naturally marry her.

Xia Wei looked at the crystal on the counter: "Job Change Crystal."

"Yes, this is a crystal that provides job change services for those who want to become adventurers. It was bestowed by the gods. Only the power of the gods can perform job changes for ordinary people. After a successful job change, a corresponding adventurer card will appear, and all of the adventurer's abilities will be recorded in it."

Luna eagerly introduced, but just as she wanted to continue explaining, artificially increasing their time together, she was ruthlessly interrupted.

"I know all of this, no need to introduce." Xia Wei reached out and pressed his hand on the Job Change Crystal.

The Job Change Crystal was instantly activated, emitting a blue magical light.

"Wait! Wait a moment! You can't touch it without permission! You need to place a blank adventurer card on it first." Luna said, flustered, and was about to turn off the Job Change Crystal.

"Sorry." Xia Wei withdrew his hand, and the Job Change Crystal instantly returned to calm.

The job change system is similar in type to the Grace System, but fundamentally, they are far apart.

The experience for leveling up in the job change system is gained by absorbing the 'souls' that escape after killing living beings, increasing one's various 'experiences'.

This is merely a simple accumulation of 'quantity', without the sublimation of life.

Humans cannot become gods under this system.

The 'gods' of this world are 'gods' because they were already 'gods' to begin with.

Gods can descend from above, but cannot ascend from below.

Before becoming gods, they were already higher life forms born from 'faith', 'rules', 'world origins', and so on, not mere mortals, which is why they could naturally ascend to godhood.

"Sir, have you already become an adventurer?" Luna asked, puzzled.

"No, I am not an adventurer, nor will I become one." Xia Wei finished speaking and walked to a table in the corner, sitting down and tapping on it.

"Coming, coming, handsome young man, what would you like to drink?" Two female staff members eagerly ran to him and asked solicitously.

"A pot of the best wine, and then one of everything here." Xia Wei slid his finger down the most expensive column on the menu. "All of this?"

"Yes, all of this."

"It'll be ready soon."

Xia Wei glanced out of the corner of his eye at the Red Demon Clan loli huddled on a long bench at the next table, clutching her stomach, and smiled.

One dish after another was brought to the table, quickly filling it up.

"Here's your wine, please enjoy."

Xia Wei slowly drank the wine. To be honest, it didn't taste that good; it was just ordinary wine. But in this kind of fantasy world, it was already quite decent. The most popular drink here was still dark beer.

Grumble grumble~' The rumbling of her stomach grew louder.

Huì Huì opened her eyes and looked at the food piled on the neighboring table, her stomach protesting uncontrollably as she clutched it even harder with both hands.

"Can one person eat all that—?"

Sigh, what should she do if no party would take her? The money she had received from Arichi had already been spent.

If she couldn't find a party willing to accept her soon, she would be kicked out of the inn tomorrow.

Perhaps she would starve to death before being kicked out of the inn.

Sigh~ she had come here to make a name for herself and to find the fated friend she was prophesied to meet.

Actually, she knew the reason why she wasn't being accepted.

She only knew Explosion Magic, and she could only use it once a day.

But she would absolutely not learn any other magic; learning other magic would be a betrayal of Explosion Magic.

She would put all her skill points into Explosion Magic.

"Hmm, he's so handsome, he must be one of those annoying, popular, self-important guys." Huì Huì sat up from the long bench, her eyes darting around.

"Someone so dazzling and attention-grabbing would surely bestow something if asked casually."

Even if they were unwilling, they would act generously under so many gazes.

Such people are simply too easy to deal with.

Huì Huì wiped saliva from the corner of her eye with her finger, propped herself up with her magic staff, and walked over, looking utterly pitiful.

From the Red Demon Clan village all the way here, and then being rejected by all the adventurer parties in the guild, she had realized that she absolutely couldn't make a living on her own.

"Oh~" Xia Wei looked at the pitiful Huì Huì walking towards him.

It truly is you, Huì Huì. You're so broke you have to beg for food and drink to survive.

Perhaps around this time, Aqua will be demoted today or tomorrow.

"Handsome Big Brother." Huì Huì's pitiful voice was incredibly loud.

The loud voice immediately attracted everyone's attention.

After a moment of silence, some people began to whisper.

"Isn't that the Red Demon Clan Arch-Wizard who only knows Explosion Magic? Is she looking for a party to join again?"

"An Arch-Wizard who can only use magic once a day is unacceptable no matter how you look at it."

"Yeah, it's not like we fight elite monsters every day, and she becomes immobile after every use of magic, needing special protection."

"She's joined every guild, hasn't she?"

"Yeah, totally unacceptable."

Huì Huì felt a pang of discomfort hearing the whispers, but what could she do? She was thick-skinned. She said loudly and pitifully, "Big Brother, I haven't eaten in a long time. Could you treat me to a big meal? Anyway, you ordered so much, you can't finish it all."

Hmph hmph, in broad daylight, how could someone who looks so flashy and prominent refuse?

"—!" Chris, who had been carefully observing from not far away, covered her face with both hands, her entire face turning into a 'soul-out' emoji.

"What is that Red Demon Clan doing?!"

She had heard of the Red Demon Clan member who could only use Explosion Magic. After all, the Red Demon Clan was one of her key observation targets, to prevent them from causing inexplicably dangerous situations for the world.

"Oh~ You want to eat?" Xia Wei looked at the pitiful Huì Huì, a hint of amusement flashing in his eyes, as he speared a chicken leg with his fork.

It truly is you, Huì Huì. Your shamelessness and initiative are just too impressive.

All those methods of recruiting followers in the Axis Cult were taught by Huì Huì.

"Thank you, thank you, kind and handsome Big Brother." Huì Huì's mouth curved into a wicked smile. While speaking loudly, she sat down and unceremoniously grabbed a knife and fork, beginning to devour the food.

"You—" Xia Wei.

"Mmm, mmm mmm—" Huì Huì mumbled, probably meaning: 'My name is Huì Huì, and I'm too hungry to talk right now. I'll introduce myself once I'm full.'

Ahaha, filling my stomach is the most important thing. Let me finish eating first.

Xia Wei watched Huì Huì frantically eating, arms crossed, eyes narrowed. "Girl, freeloading off me comes at a considerable price."

Chris was completely stunned, and Darkness, who was next to her, pulled her hand but she didn't react.
