The next morning, after a long and quiet night, Red woke up to the sound of birds chirping in the sky. He began to wonder would his hearing abilities awaken naturally, or would they require deeper and more intense training to fully control and master them?
As the new day began, morning activities at Uncle Star's house proceeded as usual. Uncle Star immediately prepared his fishing gear and net to catch fish for the day's meal. Seeing this, Red also decided to prepare for his own hunt in the forest.
Red: Uncle Star, I would like to go hunting in the forest.
Uncle Star: Yes, my dear. Go ahead, but make sure you stay alert and take care of yourself.
Red: Yes, Uncle. Thank you.
Uncle Star: And don't forget this afternoon, before the sun sets, you must return home. We will continue your self-defense training in the evening.
Red: Yes, Uncle. Thank you for your guidance. I will take responsibility for my decision to continue training my abilities.
Uncle Star: Good, son. You are starting to think like an adult. Hahaha…
After their conversation, they went their separate ways Red heading into the forest to hunt, and Uncle Star going to the river to fish.
Sometime later, while both were focused on their respective tasks, events were unfolding in Arkhan City.
At the port, a large crowd of people suddenly arrived. Rumors spread quickly among the citicity were they newcomers from other regions?
Citizen A: Hey, do you see all those people gathered at the port?
Citizen B: They look like newcomers… or maybe traveling merchants?
Citizen C: Based on what you said, I think they are indeed newcomers and merchants.
Citizen D: Yes, I agree. They are newcomers and traveling merchants who have just arrived in Arkhan City.
Citizen E: I've heard that their arrival might improve the city's economic growth, according to the Arkhan City government.
Citizen F: If that's true, then I'm glad. It seems our economy is slowly improving.
Citizens A, B, C, D, and E: Agree… agree… agree…
The residents of Arkhan City appeared pleased, viewing the arrival of these newcomers as a sign of positive change for their city.
