Chapter 1 1. Raymond
"Ugh~ My head hurts so much!!"

Raymond groaned in pain, "Did I drink last night?"

In a daze, Raymond covered his head with his hands and unexpectedly touched a cloth bandage, which made him suddenly open his eyes and wake up.

"What's going on? Did I get beaten?"

When his fingers touched a certain area on his head, he felt a strong pain, which convinced Raymond that he had indeed been injured.

Raymond, who felt that he had been injured, was not frightened at first, but became a little excited.

"Where's my phone? I want to see the car!"

He rummaged through the bed. As a modern man, Raymond was always close to the opportunity.

Unfortunately, he didn't find it, but it made Raymond notice that something was wrong with the surrounding environment.

The room he was in was neither his home nor a hospital, but a small wooden house.

From the perspective of the slope of the roof, I was in the attic on the top floor.

In this small room, only half of it can accommodate people, while the other half is so low that it can only be used for stacking things, and Raymond's so-called bed is also laid directly on the floor.

'What is this place? '

When this question just popped up in Raymond's mind, he suddenly felt his mind swell, as if countless pictures were pouring in.

"Uh……"

This made Raymond, who was already injured on his head, groan in pain again and fall back on the bed.

After an unknown amount of time, Raymond finally got relief from this pain.

He lay on his back on the bed, staring blankly at the roof, and finally laughed helplessly, "I didn't expect that I actually traveled through time..."

Yes, what just flooded into Raymond's mind was the memory of the original owner of this body.

The original owner was also named Raymond, to be precise, his name was Raymond Kelton.

Well, he's an orphan.

In addition, the memories in his mind also made Raymond understand the world he was in.

This is a world of swords and magic. In this world, when everyone reaches the age of 15, they will go to the temple to perform an awakening ceremony. Those who are lucky or have a high affinity for magic will awaken to a certain profession and become a professional. .

These professions include fighters, warriors, magicians, priests, hunters, archers... and so on.

Each of them has powerful abilities far beyond ordinary people, and can be said to be the darlings of this world.

The original owner had turned 15 years old half a month ago and had also been to the temple. As for which profession he had awakened, the answer was: no.

The original owner's magic affinity did not meet the requirements for the awakening profession at all, and now he is just an ordinary person!

"Haha...it turns out he's a loser, so it's better not to travel through time."

Raymond smiled bitterly.

At least, in the original world, his country was stable and peaceful, with good law and order, and he could live a stable life even if he was a waste.

As for here, it's different.

In addition to humans, there are a large number of demi-humans and other races in this world. You must know that not all races are on good terms with humans, and many races even have irreconcilable conflicts with humans.

Not only that, there are all kinds of powerful monsters in this world, and ordinary people have no way to deal with these monsters.

And Raymond's parents were killed by monsters three years ago, and he became an orphan.

It is precisely through those powerful awakened people that mankind can survive against various threats.

"Forget it... Just leave the fight against monsters to the adventurers and knights. I am an ordinary person, so I should think about how to live my current life."

Raymond sighed helplessly.

but……

"Is there really no other way? If the magic affinity is not real enough, then I can't awaken my profession?"

"Why don't you have the golden finger that is necessary for time travel?"

But after waiting for a long time, there was no cold voice in his mind, which made Raymond feel a lot colder inside.

I'm really not reconciled!
"Perhaps Golden Finger will not come until I am an adult, so let's wait another three years!"

Raymond took pleasure in the suffering and gave himself some psychological comfort in his heart.

Boom!Boom!Boom!
At this moment, the sound of trampling on the wooden floor came from outside the room.

Ga~
The wooden door of Raymond's room was pushed open, and a beautiful-looking girl wearing a white apron with blue edges came in.

But what is even more surprising is that the girl has a pair of green eyes and a particularly conspicuous long red hair.

When the girl just walked in and saw that Raymond had gotten up, her troubled face suddenly turned cloudy, and she said happily: "Lemon, you're awake!"

Before Raymond could reply, the girl walked up without saying a word and pushed him back onto the bed. "You are an injured person now. Just lie down. As for the work in the hotel today, I have already told Mrs. Weir. She I also promised to let you have a good rest today, so you don’t have to worry about it.”

Raymond looked at the girl squatting aside to look after him, and knew the girl's name from the memory of the original owner.

Arya Maul.

As for the hotel job Arya mentioned, she was talking about the 'Vail Hotel' run by the Vail couple.

It was in this hotel that Raymond could barely survive by working as a waiter.

Arya and Raymond have similar life experiences. Their parents were also killed by monsters, and now they are also working alone as a waiter at the 'Vell Hotel'.

Perhaps because of their similar life experiences and the fact that they are the same age, their relationship is closer than others.

But judging from my memory, Mr. and Mrs. Weir are not that easy to talk to. They have always exploited the waiters in different ways and found various reasons to deduct their wages.

He accidentally fell down and was injured this time and did not go to work. The Weirs would definitely not miss the opportunity.

And this time he was able to agree to let himself rest. Without even thinking about it, he knew that it was Aaliya Jiang who had taken over all his work.

"Alya, thank you." Raymond thanked him sincerely.

"You're welcome! Don't you always help me when I feel uncomfortable..."

Arya seemed to have thought of something, her face was slightly red, but she soon smiled softly, and gently placed her hand on Raymond's head, gently stroking the hair on his head like a kitten.

Uh……

Looking at the girl caressing him and feeling the touch on his head, Raymond felt his whole body become numb and very comfortable.

This is an indescribable feeling, like I feel that this thing is very interesting and I want to continue like this.

He had felt this way before, but it was only when he saw something interesting or was doing something, and then suddenly had a sudden impulse.

Speaking of which, Arya seemed to be a few months younger than him, not yet 15 years old, and she had lived for more than twenty years in her previous life.

But now, under the caress of this girl who was smaller than him, he actually felt like his whole body was numb.

'It seems like I haven't felt this way for a long time...it's so good! '

Raymond narrowed his eyes slightly, enjoying the tranquility of this moment like a kitten.

Unfortunately, the good times don't last long.

"Arya, what are you doing? Come down quickly. There are already guests!"

This sound was really unpleasant, it was an uncomfortable high-pitched roar like noise.

The shrieking sound reached the room from downstairs without any hindrance, breaking the warm and peaceful scene between the two of them.

This was Mrs. Weir's voice, and her caustic voice could be heard clearly no matter where in the hotel.

"Oh, it seems like it's already five o'clock in the afternoon, and now the guests are starting to arrive."

Hearing Mrs. Weil's voice, Arya shuddered, stood up quickly, and said goodbye to Raymond, "Well, Raymond, you have a good rest, I'll go down first, otherwise Mrs. Weil will keep talking..."

No one could stand her harsh lectures, which were as loud as noise, and they lasted for more than half an hour, during which you couldn't stop working.

"Wait a moment."

Raymond stopped Arya, lifted the quilt and stood up from the bed, "I'll go down too." "But your injury..."

"It's okay!" Raymond replied in a positive tone.

Raymond is the kind of person who tries his best not to bother others when he can handle his own affairs without bothering others.

At the same time, he is also a person who is particularly afraid of trouble. Sometimes he feels that something is too troublesome, so he would rather not do it.

That's what waste is.

"Let's go."

Raymond put on his work clothes and walked out of the room first.

"Don't be brave!"

Arya quickly reminded her and followed Raymond out.

Vail Hotel is not only accommodation, but also has a restaurant, which is a hotel integrating food and accommodation.

There are four floors in total. The first floor is the restaurant, the second and third floors are rooms for guests, and the top floor is used to stack things and provide accommodation for waiters like Raymond and others who have no place to live. Of course , that can't be free.

And Arya lives opposite Raymond.

The two of them went down the stairs and arrived at the first floor.

"Raymond!"

As soon as he came down, Raymond screamed at the noise.

At first glance, it was Mrs. Weir standing at the front desk cashing out.

She wore a bright red fur coat, fishnets on her feet, makeup on her face, and her blond hair was specially styled with curls and style, giving her a gorgeous look.

If you don't take into account her arms that are thicker than her thighs and the fat that spills out from the fishing net, this outfit is indeed good.

But now it just feels scary!
In short, Raymond only took one look and no longer dared to take another look.

But Mrs. Weir obviously would not let him go so easily, "When did you wake up? You should get down quickly when you wake up. Do you know how difficult it is to do the work in the kitchen because of your absence? How many guests have complained about you?" do you know……"

"Are there any rooms in the hotel?"

I was about to stop talking, but fortunately, a guest came.

"Ah, yes...how many rooms do you need for guests?"

Facing the guests, Mrs. Weir immediately put on her signature friendly smile, which may be friendly in her eyes.

"Come on."

Seeing Mrs. Weir going to greet the guests, Arya hurriedly pulled Raymond into the kitchen.

The two of them escaped all the way to the kitchen and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Oh, it's so horrible!"

Raymond exhaled and put his hands on his knees, feeling a little exhausted.

What bothers him most and fears the most is when someone nags him endlessly, and sometimes he really wants to punch him.

"I'm lucky this time. There are more and more customers at this time. She is too busy collecting money to entertain us and has no time to pay attention to us."

Arya also patted her chest,

Then the two looked at each other and smiled.

"Hey! You two can't stop talking, why don't you come over and get to work!"

A waiter wearing work clothes like Raymond came over. He glared at Raymond and said angrily: "Raymond, do you know how much more work we had because of you yesterday?"

This man has blond hair and is much older than Raymond in terms of age and size.

"Seth, that's enough!"

Arya looked at the blond young man angrily, "If you hadn't dropped the garlic on the ground and didn't clean it up in time, Raymond would have accidentally stepped on it and fallen!"

"That is……"

Seth wanted to defend himself, but seeing Arya's attitude of clearly not giving in, he could only snort. Then he looked at Raymond and mocked: "A loser like you can only hide behind women." Got it!"

After that, he turned and left.

"Raymond, don't pay too much attention to what Seth said...he just deliberately provoked you because he couldn't do anything with you."

Arya seemed worried that Seth's words would hurt Raymond's self-esteem, so she turned back to comfort Raymond.

But when she saw that Raymond only frowned slightly and didn't seem to care that much, Arya seemed relieved.

Raymond really didn't care much about Seth's ridicule. He thought he was a loser in his previous life, and he couldn't tell that Seth wanted to anger him.

This method is very low-level, but it is often very useful for men, especially young people who are full of blood.

Unfortunately, Raymond was already past that age. He touched the injured area on his head and realized that it was the yellow hair that caused his injury.

"I'm going to entertain the guests. If Seth and the others bully you, remember to come to me."

Girls like Arya are responsible for entertaining guests in the hall.

There were already more customers at this time. If she didn't go over to help entertain them, the other waitress would be overwhelmed.

However, Arya had some doubts on her face as she left. She felt that Raymond seemed a little different today.

In the past, when Seth and the others ridiculed him, he would get angry and blush even if he didn't dare to talk back, but today he is somewhat calm.

Maybe it's because I hurt my head...

After Arya left, Raymond came to the kitchen. His job was to serve the dishes, clear away the dishes after the guests finished eating, and finally wash the dishes.

As soon as he entered, he saw Seth discussing something with the other two waiters. When he saw him coming in, he immediately smiled like a villain.

Raymond also knew about those two people, Andre and Ma Fei, who often worked with Seth to get in Raymond's way, and sometimes they would force their own work on Raymond.

'Proper workplace bullying! ' Raymond lamented in his heart.

Moreover, looking at them like this, it didn't take much to think about it, and they must be preparing to embarrass him in some way.

"The dishes for table three are ready. Hurry up and bring them over!"

At this time, the chef in the kitchen shouted in their direction.

"Hey, Raymond, do you hear me? Hurry up and deliver this plate to table three!"

Andre among the three pointed at the dinner plate and gave orders to Raymond with a proud look on his face.

Andre and Raymond have the same job. Although he is smaller than Raymond, he often relies on Ma Fei and Seth to boss Raymond around.

It can be said that Raymond does at least twice as much work as him every day.

'Sure enough, no matter where you are, if a person is too kind or cowardly, he will only be bullied. '

Raymond took a breath silently, and then with an 'ah' sound, he covered his head and said loudly: "My head hurts! It hurts so much!"

While shouting, he bent down and covered his head.

Seeing Raymond like this, the three of them were dumbfounded, but they didn't care whether Raymond was faking it or not.

"Raymond, please come here less..."

"What are you still lingering on! Andre, bring me the food quickly!"

Just when Andre was about to scold Raymond, the chef came back with the next ingredient and found that the dish had not been brought out yet, and immediately shouted an order.

In the kitchen, the chef is the biggest, and they, the handymen, cannot afford to offend.

Andre could only obediently pick up the plate.

When he passed by Raymond, he threatened him viciously: "Wait for me, kid!"
