Chapter 193
Facing Robin’s teasing, Leon scratched his nose awkwardly. “Forget it, I was just asking casually.”
“So you brought all two hundred pieces of lumber?” Robin confirmed.
“Yeah.” Leon nodded.
“My goodness, what a convenient ability. If I had that, I wouldn’t need to drive every time I go out for construction or renovation work. And for big projects, I can’t even transport all the materials in one trip.” Robin sighed with envy.
“You don’t seem surprised about the existence of special abilities.” Leon looked at Robin curiously. “Mind telling me why?”
“Because this is Stardew Valley. Young folks might not understand, but us older folks have seen all kinds of things.” Robin smiled as she explained. “And you’re not the only one with a special ability—I have one too. Otherwise, why do you think I’m the only carpenter in all of Pelican Town?”
“Does Demetrius know?” Leon asked, intrigued. He couldn’t help but wonder if Robin’s second husband, the science-obsessed man, knew his wife had a hidden talent.
“He never pays attention to my work. His head’s always buried in research.” Robin shrugged. “Besides, I wouldn’t want him to know. Otherwise, he’d try to make me his research subject. I’m not interested in that kind of… unique marital pastime.”
“Tsk tsk tsk.” Leon clicked his tongue regretfully. “So your ability must be related to construction, right? Is it the effect of a Starfruit?”
