Dungeon Master Makeup Money (formerly known as Dungeon Master Funding)

I was in a hurry.

Initially, the plan was to go into action while we were making noise about the bandits we hired.

But the bandits were devastated while they were acting just a little differently.

I got stiff from surprise when I heard the story as a rumor in the city.

I immediately ran to the Adventurer Alliance to make sure the information was true and false.

Of course, I don't imitate asking Alliance officials directly because they don't know their identity. I gather rumors from adventurers who became close while I was talking to an adventurer on my arm to make a personal request. Collect the contents of Alliance staff conversations beside them.

Apparently, the bandits have been devastated for sure.

Besides, it looks like some of the adventurers I crusaded hated were adventurers.

I can't get tired of just killing Salma, even getting in the way of my plan. Of course you don't know me or anything, but as it turns out I'm in a situation where I have to change my plans.

After gathering the information, I return to my tentative quarters in Alistair.

"Welcome back, uncle"

The smile of an innocent boy greets me when I return to the inn.

"I'm home."

The boy who waited for me in the inn - stroking Elmer's head before sitting back in bed.

This kid is a really smart kid. A child of this age would want to play more, but he keeps my word, the guardian, and makes a big deal out of me in the inn.

"Anything unusual?

"Yeah."

Elmer shakes his head to the side.

Watching that make me crave protection.

"Right."

I really wish this kid was my kid.

But this kid was childhood friendly. One son left by Salma.

Me and Salma just played a couple of relationships at an early age. He seemed to be some aristocratic child from the clothes he was wearing, and when he left the house, he went outside to play and meet me.

Salma, who had strong arms, began to take on dangerous tasks as she grew up, and her relationship with me was alienated by the time she grew up. I wanted to be independent soon because I was originally disgusted with my life as a nobleman.

I was also swept away during my busy days as an adult and working for the Chamber of Commerce to manage my money.

Live normally, normally for the rest of your life.

There was a life of nothing going on.

It was my first love that was such a big event in my life.

I've never talked to anybody in the city who just sees me.

After a little research, I found out that she was a whore.

But I stopped seeing him at all one day at the border.

The next time I saw him all over the city, he was holding a baby.

Apparently, my pregnancy had reduced my chances of going out and not even meeting me anymore.

My first love ended without even talking to them.

But I don't see the father at all.

That's when childhood tampering came suddenly.

"I want you to give my kid the money."

The purpose is not to reveal that he is the father, but to carry the money to his own children.

Apparently, there was a deep connection to the Chamber of Commerce where I worked in doing dangerous work, and when I visited the Chamber of Commerce, I witnessed my face and remembered the person I missed.

In doing so, knowing that I was in control of some of the money, I decided to deposit my own money thinking I was someone I could trust.

I didn't have any particular reason to say no, and I took on the request because it was a nostalgic pattern.

But I regretted the moment I saw who I took the money from.

"There you are."

The other person is my first love.

I revealed that it was Salma's mercy and gave him the money. At the same time, I talk to her in public for a short time.

It was the moment I had contact with her who had no contact at all.

He has since assumed the role of proposing from me and giving it to me on a regular basis.

As for Salma, she was going to give it to me using her own route so that she wouldn't know about herself if she'd even taken on the first one. But I also convinced him that it was more certain that I gave it to him, not certain.

There's no point in living like that.

I am only the mercy of Salma.

That was still enough.

I didn't mind if it lasted forever.

But nothing could have lasted forever.

I knew such obvious facts from the beginning. Still, it was unexpected that the end would come after less than ten years.

"What is this...!

There was nothing left in the Azito of the Gleasons.

There should be a mess of boxes filled with stolen goods that could not easily be put on the table because they kept a large warehouse that was no longer in use, but there are not even those boxes.

Looking for people doesn't find any constituents.

As soon as I desperately started looking for clues, I could easily tell what had happened.

There was a raid about a week ago and all the constituents died. Everything the organization owned had also been confiscated by those who crusaded it.

The people of the city who learned of the fact that there had been a raid were surprised that such a dangerous organization was in the same city, and at the same time were horrified to learn of the fact that it had already been crusaded.

If I had nothing to do with it, I would have been happy to raise my hands.

But it was a problem that I couldn't ignore.

When you hide yourself from the city where you were based, you go back to where you should go.

This meaningless life has also come to an end.

"Sorry."

I bow my head when I go back under the two of them.

"Keep your head up, please"

She tells me softly.

"I was ready for a day like this one day"

Then she pulled into the back of the house crying.

He was such a business man, but Salma would have meant he was a man to love for her.

- From now on, I have to protect her.

The situation of losing the man I loved seemed like an opportunity to me, and I never thought of it.

But I wanted to protect her purely.

Such small thoughts never materialized either.

She fell ill.

"Oh no, why not!?

She didn't look like that in front of me, but she seems to have been in bad shape for a long time.

Later it was a story she told me, but after I had my child, I stopped the whore and worked busily as a waitress in the city. That seemed to have been a considerable burden to her, and the medical condition had progressed to cut Salma's death.

She couldn't beat the disease, which was spiritual.

"My son, please!

"... ok!

Less than a month after learning of Salma's death, she took her breath away.

I must raise Elmer from now on.

Fortunately, I had no problems with alimony.

She had little hands on the money I was brokering and Salma was giving her. It was a word heard during death, but he said it was clear. She also knew what kind of business Salma was in, so she didn't want to get her hands on the money she earned that way.

However, if I could no longer raise Elmer because of my own will, it would make no sense, so I had only a few hands on it.

I want you to raise my son using the money you had left.

That's the will left by the first lover.

"Hey, uncle. Where's your father?

Saturnful Elmer was quick to accept that his mother was dead.

I also understood that the only person I could rely on for losing my mother as a child was my father, whom I had never met.

He also understands through me that he has a father.

"Your father..."

I was wondering if I should tell you about my father I hadn't told you before.

That's also because Salma was in a business that people couldn't tell.

"Your father used to work on getting rid of bad people at the behest of people in need, but he lost to bad people a while back, and he died like your mother"

At the end of the day, I only tell Sarma that she has already died because of the content of the work she was doing.

Elmer accepted what I said, too.

- What do we do now?

I have no obligation to do anything to this child.

No one knows anything about this child's relationship with mine.

I can't be blamed for abandoning you here and leaving you in an orphanage.

But I couldn't abandon the child I thought was like my child.

"What does Elmer want to do now?

I felt sorry for the child.

"What does your uncle want to do?

"Me...?

Elmer's question made me tilt my neck.

What have you lived for so far?

I couldn't even share my thoughts with my first lover, and I was satisfied with my life just to talk to the public about the business of giving away money.

That's what I thought I should go on forever.

Why did your life break down like that?

"I want to take out the bad guys who took out your father"

Salma's business has not been praised. On the contrary, it is to blame.

Still, if Salma had lived, there shouldn't have been anything like her death, and there would have been a life so far full of my fine happiness.

It was the moment when vengeance dwelt on my chest.
