| Suddenly you hear a familiar voice.

| {{SL|???|Mr. Richter, Miss [Player]? I didn't expect to see you here.}}
| |
| You turn around and see Jennie walking up to you quickly, carrying a bucket of milk in her arms.

| |
| |script=
| |
| After saying goodbye to Jennie, you and Vyn continue to travel around Fia Estate.
| |
|
| |
| The spring breeze is warm and the view is breathtaking. In the distance, cows are grazing on the pasture. It is a peaceful scene.
| |
|
| |
| {{SL|You|...What are we going to do at the last stop of our trip?}}
| |
| The five-day overseas trip will soon come to an end. You feel reluctant to leave.
| |
|
| |
| After leaving Jennie's house, you begin to think about doing something special to commemorate the trip.
| |
|
| |
| {{SL|Vyn|Do you want to experience the life of being the master of the estate?}}
| |
| {{SL|You|What? How?}}
| |
| {{SL|Vyn|There are many farms around Fia Estate which are available for tourists to rent.}}
| |
| {{SL|Vyn|If you want, you can temporarily become the owner of the farm and experience the farmer's life.}}
| |
| {{SL|You|(It's nice to be the owner of the farm and watch cattle and sheep wandering on the pasture!)}}
| |
| {{SL|You|That's it! Dr. Richter, let's become the masters of the farm together!}}
| |
| {{SL|Vyn|Shall we go have a look at the farms available for rental?}}
| |
| {{SL|You|Sure.}}
| |
| Soon, you find a farm available for rental and become a temporary farmer.
| |
|
| |
| According to the staff, during the rental period, the tenants can use any items on the farm.
| |
|
| |
| If you want, you can even prepare a Baroskian meal for your guests.
| |
|
| |
| {{SL|You|Dr. Richter! The cows are here!}}
| |
| {{SL|Vyn|I never thought that I would need to harvest my own food one day.}}
| |
| It might be a little hard to cook traditional Baroskian food, but it shouldn't be too hard to make a cream stew.
| |
|
| |
| You feel like an idiot for not realizing that you'd have to harvest your own food.
| |
|
| |
| There's no food in the kitchen. If you want to cook, you'd have to collect the ingredients from the farm yourself.
| |
|
| |
| {{SL|You|Fine. It is our farm after all.}}
| |
| {{SL|You|As a farm owner, I have to do everything by myself.}}
| |
| You volunteer to milk the cow, but you become totally helpless when you sit by the milk bucket.
| |
|
| |
| {{SL|You|Okay. Massage the teat repeatedly from the top to the bottom... Be careful and squeeze it in one fluid motion.}}
| |
| {{SL|You|(Oh no, I've completely forgotten the milking technique the staff just taught me!)}}
| |
| You try your best to remember as you approach the cows...
| |
|
| |
| "Moo!" You tried to be gentle, but once the cow moves, you get scared and you withdraw your hands.
| |
|
| |
| At this time, a pair of warm hands cover yours and gently hold your trembling fingers.
| |
|
| |
| {{SL|Vyn|Don't be afraid. The more you worry, the more your fingers will lose control.}}
| |
| {{SL|Vyn|Calm down. It is actually very simple.}}
| |
| With a gentle force between the fingers, you massage the cow's teat... Soon, you can smell the sweetness of the milk.
| |
|
| |
| {{SL|You|I did it.}}
| |
| You relax your arms and let Vyn's fingers guide you.
| |
|
| |
| The rich smelling liquid squirts through your fingers and drips steadily into the milk bucket.
| |
|
| |
| Soon the bucket is filled with milk. You've finally finished your task.
| |
|
| |
| {{SL|Vyn|Look, you have done a good job, right?}}
| |
| {{SL|You|Dr. Richter... I mean, farmer Richter, you've also done a good job guiding me.}}
| |
| {{SL|Vyn|I did not really guide you. I only learned from the staff's introduction.}}
| |
| {{SL|You|Now I have to repay you with the creamy stew I guess.}}
| |
| {{SL|Vyn|Okay. Let me carry the milk bucket...}}
| |
| {{SL|Vyn|Ah!}}
| |
| {{SL|You|!!!}}
| |
| Because of your inexperience, the bucket is too full... The milk splashes out onto Vyn's face.
| |
|
| |
| Milk is dripping from his collar, cuffs, chest, and even the ends of his hair...
| |
|
| |
| Unlike his usual self, Vyn shows a hint of helplessness or even nervousness.
| |
|
| |
| {{SL|You|Pfft...}}
| |
| Instead of getting a towel to clean up, you pick up the camera and aim it at him...
| |
|
| |
| Admittedly, you do want to prank him but you won't say it out loud.
| |
| {{SL|You|Dr. Richter.}}
| |
| {{SL|Vyn|Yes?}}
| |
| The moment is captured by the camera. The surprise in his eyes, the embarrassment when his shirt is soaked with milk...
| |
|
| |
| It's like... you know a little secret about Vyn. It makes you feel strangely satisfied.
| |
|
| |
| {{SL|Vyn|Why did you... suddenly...}}
| |
| {{SL|You|Because seeing you embarrassed is also a new experience.}}
| |
| {{SL|You|I want that as a souvenir.}}
| |
| Vyn looks at your photo, the surprise in his eyes is enlarged and there is a kind of helplessness in his golden eyes.
| |
|
| |
| {{SL|Vyn|...You captured the embarrassing side of me.}}
| |
| {{SL|Vyn|I can never hide anything from you.}}
| |
| You pick up a clean towel to clean the milk stains on Vyn's shirt.
| |
|
| |
| {{SL|You|Perfect... I want to get a better look at you.}}
| |
| {{SL|Vyn|I am willing to let you see me.}}
| |
| His voice is so soft, like the tenderness reflected in his golden eyes.
| |
|
| |
| The more you see, the more you understand, and slowly you find his uniqueness...
| |
|
| |
| I think... Maybe this is the meaning and reward of your trip.

| |
| After you decide to report on the unreasonable charges of Lombardia...
| |
|
| |
| Your trip to James River seems to have gained another purpose.
| |
|
| |
| You record every expense incurred during the trip and check the amounts on each receipt carefully.
| |
|
| |
| {{SL|You|I knew it! Look, Mr. Wing...}}
| |
| {{SL|You|There's a 30% extra service charge for the waterbus ticket.}}
| |
| {{SL|You|There's an unknown extra charge for the speedboat tickets.}}
| |
| {{SL|Artem|Also, there's a surcharge on the receipt of the Riverside Restaurant.}}
| |
| {{SL|You|We never realized until we checked carefully...}}
| |
| In fact, not only did you find problems in today's receipts, when you and Artem went through the previous bills last night...
| |
|
| |
| You've been charged extra service fees on the first day of the trip. You just didn't notice them back then.
| |
|
| |
| {{SL|You|I think these are sufficient to explain the problem here.}}
| |
| {{SL|Artem|Well, let me find the way to the police station...}}
| |
| Before Artem finishes, an angry voice interrupts him.
| |
|
| |
| {{SL|???|How can you do that? I'm going to sue you!}}
| |
| A man with a bandage on his hand comes out of the water bus station angrily.
| |
|
| |
| He points to the air and says a few swear words as though he's very dissatisfied with someone in the station.
| |
|
| |
| And yet no one from the station is responding to him ...
| |
|
| |
| {{SL|Hurt Tourist|Don't hide. I know you are there!}}

| |
| {{SL|Hurt Tourist|I didn't force anyone to open an extra seat for me. I just said it would be nice if I could have some extra space...}}
| |
| {{SL|Hurt Tourist|Then I was told that they could arrange a separate seat for me but I need to pay extra!}}

| You sit down in a patio chair and enjoy the gentle sunlight shining through the greenhouse's glass panes.

| {{SL|You|There were some troubles that came up, and I really was worried about them...}}
| |
| {{SL|You|But those kinds of things wouldn't affect me! With my confidence, those kinds of things aren't even problems.}}

| |
| On the last day of your trip, you and Artem visit all the attractions in Floren Palace.
| |
|
| |
| The gorgeous Floren Palace, the historical Art Gallery, the magnificent Sculpture Park... You record the scenery with the lens.
| |
|
| |
| {{SL|You|Mr. Wing, come and have a look. Which photos should I use?}}
| |
| It's easy to take photos but choosing them is a nightmare. After staring at the camera screen for a while...
| |
|
| |
| You decide to turn to Artem for help in choosing the photos for Evelyn.
| |
|
| |
| {{SL|Artem|Hmm...}}
| |
| Artem pokes at the camera screen and points at a group of Floren Palace photos taken with a wide-angle lens.
| |
|
| |
| {{SL|Artem|The angles of these shots make the photos seem more open.}}
| |
| {{SL|You|We have the same taste. Actually, I like this group too!}}
| |
| {{SL|You|Just that...}}
| |
| You personally prefer this group of photos too, but you're also worried at the same time.
| |
|
| |
| {{SL|You|Mr. Wing, do you think this group of photos is similar to the last ones I sent?}}
| |
| {{SL|Artem|How is that?}}
| |
| {{SL|You|When we were in Lombardia, I took photos with similar angles... but Evelyn...}}
| |
| {{SL|Artem|Are you worried that your friend won't be satisfied with this group of photos?}}
| |
| {{SL|You|Yeah...}}
| |
| {{SL|Artem|Don't worry too much. Your friend wants "the view you think is the most breathtaking on your trip."}}
| |
| {{SL|Artem|If you think this is the most breathtaking view, then it is.}}
| |
| {{SL|You|(My feelings?)}}
| |
| Subconsciously, you fan yourself with your hand to calm down and think more clearly.
| |
|
| |
| {{SL|Artem|[Player], let's find a place to sit down and rest.}}
| |
| {{SL|Artem|If you can't decide now, relax for a bit. Maybe you'll think of something new later.}}
| |
| {{SL|You|Yeah, sure.}}
| |
| Artem is right. There's no point stressing over it. You may as well do something else and enjoy your trip.
| |
|
| |
| You take a rest on a bench in the street.
| |
|
| |
| The cool breeze is comfortable and brings with it a sweet aroma.
| |
|
| |
| Following the smell, you see an ice cream truck across the street, with a sign "Handmade ice cream, 100-year-old recipe."
| |
|
| |
| {{SL|You|Handmade ice cream from a 100-year-old recipe? I wonder what that tastes like.}}
| |
| {{SL|Artem|Do you want to try?}}
| |
| {{SL|You|Yes!}}
| |
| The sign caught your attention and suddenly you're interested in trying the traditional handmade ice cream.
| |
|
| |
| {{SL|Artem|Wait here. I'll go buy some.}}
| |
| With that, Artem crosses the street and walks over to the ice cream truck.
| |
|
| |
| You watch Artem from the distance...
| |
|
| |
| You see him talk with the owner politely then return with an ice cream cone in both of his hands.
| |
|
| |
| Artem's classic camel-colored trench coat is straightened and neat, giving him a little extra elegance.
| |
|
| |
| {{SL|You|(This coat really suits Mr. Wing. Strange... Why haven't I noticed earlier?)}}
| |
| When you are still staring at Artem, he's already walking over to you...
| |
|
| |
| The classic architecture becomes a background for him, like the composition in a fine painting.
| |
|
| |
| The image freezes in front of your eyes, it looks like a landscape picture.
| |
|
| |
| {{SL|You|(Your friend wants "the view that you find the most breathtaking on your trip.")}}
| |
| Thinking about what Artem'd said, the idea slowly becomes clear in your mind.
| |
|
| |
| You pick up the camera and wave it at him.
| |
|
| |
| {{SL|You|Mr. Wing, here!}}
| |
| {{SL|Artem|Oh?}}
| |
| Through the camera lens, he looks directly at you with a smile on his lips. This scene is captured.
| |
|
| |
| {{SL|Artem|Why did you... suddenly...}}
| |
| {{SL|You|Because the angle was perfect. I decided to send this photo to Evelyn.}}
| |
| You show him the camera. He looks at the photo and looks back at you.
| |
|
| |
| {{SL|Artem|You...}}
| |
| {{SL|You|Everyone sees and thinks differently. I should bravely show others what I think is beautiful.}}
| |
| Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. Everyone sees differently. And everyone defines beauty differently.
| |
|
| |
| So the answer is very obvious.
| |
|
| |
| What Evelyn wants is your emotion. And the beauty of this journey is being together with Artem.
| |
|
| |
| {{SL|You|I think the most breathtaking view...}}
| |
| {{SL|You|Is you.}}
| |
| Artem smiles and looks at you, sincerely and genuinely.
| |
|
| |
| {{SL|Artem|In my eyes, you've always been.}}
| |
| His calm words set off ripples in your heart, twisting and circling.
| |
|
| |
| A warmth surges up to your cheeks. At this moment, even the air seems sweet, making you intoxicated...
| |
|
| |
| {{SL|Artem|Okay. Put away the camera first. The ice cream is melting.}}
| |
| {{SL|You|Ah! My ice cream!}}
| |
| You'd been so focused on the photos, the ice cream is already melting, dripping down along the side...
| |
|
| |
| You quickly put away the camera and take the ice cream.
| |
|
| |
| {{SL|You|Delicious. No wonder it's been around for a hundred years.}}
| |
| {{SL|Artem|It's fragrant and sweet.}}
| |
| Although the melted ice cream is a little messy to eat. The creamy fragrance still tastes wonderful.
| |
|
| |
| At this moment, as you look at each other, there's tenderness and romance in the air.
| |
|
| |
| The feeling is beyond words and yet it is in the bottom of your heart.
| |
|
| |
| You believe this is the most breathtaking view of your journey.
