This is a Miracle

Chapter 2: Black Book



The winter snow melted in the warm sun at dawn. Drops of melted ice water fell from the wooden eaves, leaving a patch of black water stains in front of the door.

The house wasn’t luxurious. It had a purely wooden structure, with a not-so-small space inside, but the only furniture in the house was a stone table and two wooden beds.

The wooden ground was bare and rough.

The only place worthy of attention was the wooden wall. A variety of beast heads hung across the entire wall, silently conveying the splendor and power of this family.

“Well, the weather is good today.”

Bai Luo looked at the big silver mane hanging on the wall. It was the trophy that he acquired with his old uncle and elder sister’s help two months ago.

Relying on it, Bai Luo became the head of the Arden Village and the new leader of the Arden people.

However, this position wasn’t as enjoyable as he thought.

Bai Luo didn’t realize this when the old uncle was in charge of things before, but now that he has taken over. He finally understood how much pressure his old uncle was under.

The Arden Village is located deep in the limestone mountains. To get out of the village, one has to trudge on a mountain road of at least 100 miles. It takes a long time to get in and out.

Moreover, the roads are winding and rugged, it’s not easy for carriages to pass through them. It’s not impossible to trek across the mountains and forests on horses, but that’s something only experienced hunters are capable of.

Because of this, there are very few merchants traveling to and from here.

Even if there is, the price of their merchandise would be sky-high, and they will buy the products of the Adren people at a minimum cost. Finally, they only pick the light and convenient local products for trading.

This made the Ardennes hate them with passion, but they were helpless.

“The weather is getting warmer.” Bai Luo said.

He straightened up his warm windbreaker made of snow wolf fur, then strongly propped up the crutch in his hand,

“But it’s still cold.”

Bai Luo Arden, a reincarnator from the Blue Planet.

“In the blink of an eye, it’s been twenty years.”

Twenty years ago, Bai Luo was reincarnated in this world.

He retained the memory of his previous life and became a newborn baby.

His soul traversed to another world, starting anew.

If he had also gotten a ‘golden finger’, Bai Luo feels that he would have become a winner in life.

Unfortunately, Bai Luo didn’t get a ‘golden finger’.

Not only didn’t he get a gold finger, but even his current life’s parents were killed by bandits at the age of 3 or 4.

Had it not been for uncle Saros who had just come home to visit relatives at the time, Bai Luo guessed that he would not escape death.

“Hiss~~”

With some unsteady steps, Bai Luo jumped over the water patch in front of the door. At the same time, he couldn’t help but complain.

“I had been hunting and eating pigs for so long. I never thought that one day, I would be injured by a pig.”

“Brother~~Big brother~~”

Bai Luo heard the shout of a cheerful girl ringing from a distance. He turned to look at the distant soil slope with a smile on his face.

This girl’s name is Inya, the younger sister of Issafeiya.

The father of the two sisters is the buddy and comrade of the old uncle Saros.

In his last moments, he entrusted his daughters to the old uncle.

“I got it, I got it!”

Inya was wearing a snow-white wolf fur coat. This coat came from a pack of wolves that the old uncle encountered three years ago.

While the nobles and their servants outside are cravings for such a rare and luxurious commodity, the Arden family of four uses them as a coat to keep warm.

“Brother, look, is this the boar that attacked you and broke your leg?”

Morning dew slid over Inya’s dreamy silver-white hair. Her smart eyes looked at Bai Luo expectantly, like a little pet expecting pats from its owner.

“Little girl! Why are you yelling so loudly, do you think I am not embarrassed enough?”

“The king of the mountains, Silvermane was beaten to death by me, but a mere wild boar broke my leg,”

Bai Luo said as he rubbed Inya’s head affectionately, giving her the head pats she wanted.

“Not very glorious, right?”

Because Bai Luo has taken care of her since she was a child, tending to her from infancy to the current young and lively girl, so the relationship between the two of them is extremely close.

In the past week, Inya has been looking for the wild boar that injured Bai Luo, intending to avenge her brother.

Compared to her elder sister’s excellence, Inya can only hunt some hares and pheasants. There’s a huge gap between the two, but this didn’t diminish the little girl’s enthusiasm.

“Hey-hey…”

“Look, see if this is it!”

Inya has a simple personality, a bit silly and honest, but she has always been close to Bai Luo.

Her brother was injured by a wild boar. How could Inya endure such a thing? She visited the woods several times a day during the last week, looking for an opportunity to avenge Bai Luo.

“Huh? It seems to be it.”

The wild boar in front of Bai Luo is completely different from the ones he had seen in his previous life. Their shape might be roughly similar, but everything else is different.

The official name of this wild boar is ‘Tintooth beast’. It is tall and has a strong physique, but most of its body is composed of bones. There are very few edible parts.

Its most distinctive feature is the four sharp silver-white fangs in his mouth. Bai Luo was injured by these things.

At that time, he single-handedly fought against eight Tintooth beasts and killed seven, but he was successfully injured by a sneak attack from the last one.

“Really?!”

Hearing Bai Luo’s confirmation, Inya was extremely excited. This week’s search was not in vain.

She helped Bai Luo exact his revenge!

“Ah, indeed, I remember that one of its teeth is chipped.” The old uncle taught Bai Luo how to distinguish beasts, so he can clearly remember that this is indeed the wild boar that injured him.

Bai Luo looked at the Tintooth beast and helplessly said,

“There is only one? I remember they live in groups, right?”

“Actually, I wasn’t the one to hunt it, it was daddy. There were four in total.”

Inya knew that she was exposed, so she immediately said,

“But I did my best, really!”

Although she missed the wild boar’s eyes, she shot its knees! Inya is confident about her contribution.

“What about uncle Saros, why didn’t he come back?”

Bai Luo is not worried about the safety of Saros.

This mountain forest is no different from the back garden of the Arden clan. They are extremely familiar with it.

Therefore, Bai Luo was really embarrassed by his latest blunder. He could already see Inya using this matter to laugh at him for years.

No, with this little girl’s mischievous character, he might be taunted for a lifetime.

“The old man said to go ahead…”

Inya’s tone turned cold all of a sudden, and Bai Luo’s face immediately worsened.

”Is it them again?”

Inya didn’t say anything in detail, but how could Bai Luo not know.

If it weren’t for his injury, he would be the one taking charge of this matter.

Saros is getting old, and now, Bai Luo is the patriarch.

“The village doesn’t have enough food. We just survived this winter. Sister Alea almost starved to death, and now these guys are levying grain again.”

Alea is a blind girl in the village. Her life depends on the villagers’ assistance.

There was heavy snow this year, and the harvest last year was not good.

However, the lords outside the village didn’t care about the life or death of the people, expropriating food again and again.

Alea is the kindest person in the village. Knowing she is a burden, she always distributed her food to the orphaned brothers and sisters living across from her.

If Bai Luo hadn’t found out about it early, she would have starved to death.

Inya gritted her teeth angrily, her hand holding the longbow slightly trembled.

“It’s better to just…”

“All right.”

Bai Luo grabbed Inya’s hand. He understood the girl’s dissatisfaction and anger very well, but as the clan’s new leader, Bai Luo couldn’t take risks.

His youthful and vigorous period has passed. Now, he is a mature man.

Over the years, Bai Luo has learned a lot and changed a lot.

By the words of uncle Saros, Bai Luo is already a qualified patriarch.

“The old man asked you to send this wild boar back first, right?”

“Yes.”

“Peel its skin, wash it, and distribute the meat to everyone.”

“I remember that Brother Huster just happened to be sick. Give him more meat so that he can get better.”

As he said, Bai Luo ruffled the little girl’s silver hair.

“Don’t be impulsive, no matter what, people have to live. As long as we are alive, the day where we will rise will eventually arrive.”

“Okay.”

Inya is not stupid, she might be lively and mischievous, but she is very obedient.

She had an adoptive father, elder sister, and older brother. As the youngest in the family, she has always followed their opinion.

“It’s not just you. I want to kill them too.”

Bai Luo’s tone had a hint of chill. He is naturally furious at those inhuman ???????? that are always driving them to the edge of death.

“But we don’t have the capital…”

Although Silvermane is ferocious, it’s only a beast after all.

Bai Luo can kill monsters, but he can do nothing to the more evil human beings.

Sometimes, humans are much more terrifying than any ferocious, wild beast.

“No, not necessarily…”

Bai Luo concentrated, and a black book appeared in his mind, floating.
