Chapter 8

Today I want to try to paint a rice field landscape.

Roxy and Paul's lessons and training for today are over, so now I have some free time to try painting.

In my previous life my painting skills were terrible..., I could only draw stickman.

Maybe in this life I can paint well using my cheat, namely [Extreme Talent] which functions to have talent in all fields.

I then just prepared my notebook and a pen for painting because I didn't have money to buy painting equipment.

I continued painting for 1 hour and finally finished.

Landscape painting in a rice field where farmers are working in a clear sky.

"Umu! This painting of mine is very good, better than the painting I had in my previous life." I said satisfied to see the results of my painting

"But painting is tired too." I said tiredly leaning on the tree and then took a basket containing 3 jam buns that I made at home before leaving. .

I ate jam bread quietly under the tree with a cool breeze

'Haa....How peaceful, can I really survive in this world? A world full of monsters and strong people? I have cheats so I can definitely survive but I'm worried about Nadia.. ..'I thought

'I don't know where Nadia is and what she asked for her wishes....., I hope she's fine' I thought after eating just one bread because I was full, then packed up my things and got ready to go home.

On the way home I found someone sleeping in the middle of the road, I then tried to wake the uncle.

"Uncle don't sleep here, You hinder people who walk when you sleep on the road uncle." I said patting his shoulder to wake him up.

'Is this uncle drunk? Haa it's so bothersome to deal with drunk people' I thought

"Akh...Fo..."

"What? What did uncle say?"

"F-ood... hungry" groaned the uncle

"Did Uncle faint from hunger? It's a coincidence that I still have some leftovers from the bread I ate earlier" I said quickly handing the rest of the jam bread in the basket.

"F-FOOD!!"

The uncle quickly took the basket from my hand and ate the bread in one gulp.

"Ahh so delicious, thank you child." handed the basket back to me.

"You're welcome, Eh? Uncle isn't the painter from yesterday."

"Oh, it's Young William! What a coincidence to meet here"

"Haha right, but what is Uncle Michael doing here?

"Ah, I just got robbed and didn't have money to buy food so I fainted." Michael replied casually.

"Er robbed, but why can't uncle eat the fruit on the tree?" I asked pointing to the apple tree across the road.

"No! It belongs to someone else, what if the person gets angry?" replied Michael

"But on the other side is the forest, so no one has it."

"...."

"...."

*AHO* *AHO* *AHO*

A mocking sound of a crow passed through the two silent people.

"Ehem! Is that the painting you brought?" Michael asked pointing at the paper I was carrying and ignoring my words

"Ah yes, this is my first painting, would you like to see?"

"Good for a small child too." Michael praised looking at my painting.

'Oh right, Uncle Michael's painting is very good, maybe I can ask to learn to paint from Uncle Michael'

"Uncle is really good at painting right?, please teach me how to paint" I asked Michael relying on the combination of my beautiful face with puppy eyes

"Eh, I don't think I can, I need to find money to find a place to stay later." Michael refused casually

'NANI?! My face doesn't work, Khh .. this uncle is very strong' I thought surprised to see Michael who casually refused.

"If you want to teach me, you can stay at my house and get paid lat-."

"REALLY!! OK!! OK, I'll teach you all my knowledge!" Michael shouted, happily cutting me off because he didn't have to sleep on the streets anymore.

"Haha really Come on, Uncle Michael, let's go to my house." I said laughing at the change in Michael's attitude quickly.

***

Michael and I headed to the house and saw Zenith watering the plants in the yard.

"Mom I'm home." I said waving my hand

"Ara Will you're home." replied Zenith who saw me

"Hm? who is the person next to you" asked Zenith who saw me with Michael.

"Mom come with me for a while and Uncle Michael wait here for a moment." I said then went to bring Zenith a little away from Michael.

"What is it?"

"Mom i wants to learn to paint and he is a painting teacher I met in the village, but he doesn't have a place to live so I brought he here."

"Is he really a painting teacher?" Zenith asked suspiciously seeing Michael's messy appearance.

"Really mom, he is very good at painting."

"But we already have Roxy, can't we just ask her to teach?"

"Come on, mom, I want to be taught by that uncle. He is very good at painting, please mom." I asked using a combination of my beautiful face and puppy eyes.

"Khh... Fine, but I'll check he painting skills first." said Zenith quickly surrendering to my pretty face and puppy eyes.

Then Zenith and I went to where Michael was waiting and Zenith handed over the paper and pen to paint.

"I've heard from my son that you will teach my son to paint, but before that I want to see your painting ability." said Zenith

"Fine, but what should I paint?" Michael replied

"Whatever."

"Okay, please wait a moment." Michael replied then immediately started painting.

20 minutes later

"It's done" said Michael handing him a paper and pen.

Zenith then took the paper and saw Michael's painting which showed a portrait of Zenith and William standing in the yard and behind him was a 2-storey house.

"Wow, very good and you paint it very fast" Zenith was amazed to see the results and speed of painting Muchael.

"Okay you are accepted and i heard you have no place to stay well, you can stay here and for payment I can only give you a little, is that okay?"

"It's okay, I'm actually grateful for being allowed to stay here." Michael replied bowing his head.

"Haha calm down." Zenith said then entered the house to prepare a room for Michael.

"Look? I'm not lying right." I said approaching Michael who was still bowing.

Michael looked at William who was smiling with the sunset behind him made him look very beautiful.

"William, are you an Angel?" Michael asked with watery eyes

"Huh?"

"You..sob...so beautiful....sob...and very kind." said Michael while crying.

I was a little panicked to see Michael suddenly crying and said I'm like an angel..

"Woah, don't cry, I'm just an ordinary human being and now you're my teacher." I said trying to comfort Michael.

"Yes I will try my best, Thank you very much William" said Michael wiping his tears and trying to hug me.

I quickly hit Michael in the stomach and sent Michael crashing into the fence

"Akhh!"

Michael screamed in pain that hit the fence then I approached Michael,

"Oh yeah I forgot to say, I really don't like being TOUCH!" I said dusting off my gloves while looking at Michael with cold eyes.

"Clear your appearance first before entering the house, understand?" I said then left Michael who was in pain holding his stomach.

"Ugh... he's not an angel at all, he's a DEVIL WHO WEARS THE SKIN OF AN ANGEL." Michael groaned getting up in pain while holding his stomach he walked towards the well to tidy up his appearance.
