Jay unfolded the parchnt paper, and his eyes widened in surprise.
It is just as he and the viewers had expected, the parchnt paper indeed contains a map inside it!
The surprised look on his face soon subsided and only a smile could be seen on Jay’s face.
Turning his eyes to the cara, he said, "Everyone, just as we have thought and hoped, there’s really a map on this paper!"
His eyes were shining as he waved the parchnt paper in his hand in front of the cara.
However, Jay didn’t show the map on the stream.
This caused the viewers to start urging him.
[Let us see it too, Jay!]
[Yeah, yeah. show it, show it, show it!]
[Jay really got a treasure map?! I wanna see it!]
[I won’t believe that there’s really a map unless you show it to .]
...
There are a lot of similar comnts filling up the screen and Jay just looks at them while maintaining a smile on his face.
After watching for a while, Jay finally opened his mouth and started talking.
"Okay, okay. Everyone, please calm down for now."
It seems his words still hold so power in them, the comnts in the live stream room beca less frequent and only a few people are continuing to urge him.
Seeing that the chats have mostly cald down, Jay continued,
"So, what I want to say is that I don’t think I’ll be able to show this map to you guys even if I want to."
"Before you all even say anything else, let explain my reason first."
As Jay said that, those viewers who were about to start typing stopped their hands above their keyboards.
"First of all, if I show this map here, there’s a possibility that you will go to the location in it."
"We should all be aware that things like this might have so problems, right?"
"It might lead you all to so sort of danger. I don’t want to feel guilty because of that."
"As for the second reason... call selfish, but I want to see where this map leads to first."
"After all, if this is really a map that leads to a treasure, it’ll feel like a loss to if soone gets it."
Saying that, Jay looked at the comnts and saw so nasty words coming from another audience.
So people are already calling him greedy, unkind, opportunistic, and other more things.
From the looks of it, those people might really have so hidden motive.
However, Jay just glanced at them and didn’t really mind them.
He knows that no matter what he does, there will always be people who will contradict him whether he likes it or not.
Especially since he’s a live strear who lives off the internet.
Anyway, Jay knows that those who understand will understand and it’s not necessarily for him to continue explaining it to those who don’t want to listen.
So after talking about it with the viewers, Jay stuffed the parchnt paper in his pocket.
Honey on the side didn’t say anything about this.
Here, she’s just a guest and she doesn’t have any say about the map.
However, Honey is actually really interested in it as well.
"Jay, are you really planning to go to the location on that map?"
"Yeah, why?"
Jay, who’s already started rummaging the sack, answered without even looking.
"Uh, well... is it possible for to co with you?"
Honey asked after a mont of hesitation.
Jay finally stopped what he’s doing and turned his head to Honey.
"Are you serious? You want to go with ?"
Nodding her head, Honey looked at Jay with a hint of expectation.
Sweat drops down on Zed’s tanned skin as he stands under the blazing sun, in a wide one acre of land.
Holding a hoe in his hand, Zed buried the last seedlings in his hand into the ground before getting up and wiping his sweat.
"Phew~ that was really tiring."
Looking at his own field, a smile can’t help but appear on his face.
"Still, I never imagined that I would actually own land at so point in this life."
Zed is an 18 year old man.
But compared to people around his age, Zed could be said to be a bit more... mature.
And that is because of one thing.
Rebirth.
In his past life, Zed led a normal life and didn’t achieve anything noteworthy.
A normal man who beca a corporate slave, that is who Zed was in the past.
However, at that ti, Zed still had a dream.
And that is to own a house in the province and a plot of land where he could plant so crops as a hobby.
It is a common dream of those who dream of peace and a relaxing, slow life.
People who live in the city are already tired of the hustle and bustle. Wanting to relax and do what they want in a peaceful environnt.
Those are those drears.
Zed was one of those people.
But being a corporate slave and nothing to inherit from his family, it was a dream that could only remain a dream forever.
At the age of 34, Zed died from exhaustion caused by overworking.
Unexpectedly, after an unknown number of tis passed, Zed opened his eyes again and found himself in an unfamiliar place.
It caused him a montary confusion which also didn’t last long.
Because the next mont, mories started rushing through his mind, giving him information about his current situation.
Zed learned that he’s been reborn from the mories that he received.
However, for 18 years, he lived without knowledge about his own past life.
But on his 18th birthday, the mories of his past life were suddenly awakened and his consciousness from the past and the current life imdiately ld together!
From that day on, the 18 years old Zed started living his life as a continuation of his past life.
...
Now, it’s been two months since his birthday and Zed is busy taking care of his own land.
That’s right.
The man who could only remain as a corporate slave in the past, dreaming of owning a land one day, has finally achieved it!
Although, it is already in another life that he achieved it.
Anyway, Zed is just thankful at the fact that he now owns his own plot of land.
A smile unconsciously ford in his lips.
"What a nice gift this is..."
This plot of land is actually a gift of Zed’s parents on his 18th birthday.
Since turning 18 ans that a child has finally beco an adult, people put great importance to it.
Zed’s family is not rich.
His family consists of him, his mother, his father, and lastly, his little sister.
Both of his parents are office workers in the city, earning ₱20,000 each monthly.
With this number, the family could barely be called a middle class family.
It is enough for the family of four to live a sufficient life in the city.
Through the past 18 years, despite not awakening his past life’s mory yet, Zed led a very quiet life.
He’s been a sensible kid from the mont he gains consciousness, making his parents feel assured about him.
That is the reason why his parents gifted him with their precious 1 acre of land.
This land was originally an inheritance of Zed’s mother that she got from her mother or Zed’s grandma.
It was farmland that they used to plant crops on in the past in order to sustain themselves.
However, Zed’s mother and also his father are self-aware.
As people from the city, the two of them are certainly not suited for farming.
Instead of doing that, why not just work overti and gain an additional salary?
But this doesn’t an that they are not aware of how precious lands are nowadays.
And that is why, after giving it a lot of thought, the two decided to use it as Zed’s 18th birthday’s gift.
Because in their mind, Zed could probably make use of it to the best of its utility.
Surprised that Zed’s parents trust him that much?
It can’t be helped, parents like that still exist after all.
For example, in novels...
...
After looking at his own land with newly planted seeds, Zed left and headed back ho.
Zed’s ho is located not that far from his land.
To be exact, it’s just right beside the farmland.
When he arrived at his house, Zed found his mother in the kitchen, cooking.
"Oh, Son, where have you been? Anyway, take a seat and we will be having breakfast now."
"Okay, Mom."
Zed took a seat around the table and turned his eyes on the TV in the living room nearby.
It is only 7am right now and the program on the TV is a long ti running talk show called Morning’s First.
At this ti, one of the female hosts is talking to another host.
[Have you heard about the latest news, Bruce?]
[What news are you talking about specifically, Anna?]
