I want to protect you in this hand.

Arsh, eight, five years old, the beginning of the month.

The Zashes were off to a good start as adventurers.

Originally as the orphan leader, he felt responsible and had good sword arms.

But my complexion got worse and my injuries got better. I was worried because I, Mal, and Zash adored Maria and Sophie's group of girls.

"Open up there! He's an injured man!

Several men, it was Zash who carried them.

Normally, he got hit by a monster of sorts, flabbergasted. The other one at the party, Cliff, called for help and managed to help. Fortunately, there were no deep wounds.

I was in the Guild infirmary, so the next morning, I took a pan of breakfast. Cyril and Will say they're on their way home because it's work.

"Zash, how's it going?

"Arsh, Mal"

You're injured, but why did you do it?

"It's okay, I just fluttered something"

"You're all pale, aren't you? Have dinner?

"! Are you okay!

"I made it multieyed, so eat Cliff and Maria?

As an injured person specification, I turned it into meat dough vegetable soup today. Slice the black bread and put on the jam. I lost a lot of momentum.

"... good... Did Arsh make this..."

"Yeah, 'cause I was cooking"

Looking closely, Zash and Cliff seemed to have made it a little easier.

"Adventurers can make more money than luggage, can't they?

"Sure, we can make money, but we split what we earned between the six of us, so I guess it's about as good as before"

"Are you getting more rice?

"Why? It's the same."

"Maria, the girl works at the demolition station, and Nico and Bran have luggage, right?

"The Zashes are starting to make money and they're all eating a little good food, so the money will be gone soon"

"Good stuff?

"It's from the stall."

"What about the food?

"Nobody's ever done that before."

I'm playing with you guys. I want to be an adventurer and earn money. I never had extra money so I'll spend it right away. As soon as I get hurt, I'll be poor. And like Cyril and the others, I don't have cooking experience.

Zash is a leader, and I'm going to take care of him. Not really, I've spoiled other orphans.

"Zash, Cliff, adventurers, they use their strength, don't they?

"Yeah, I'm much more tired than I've ever been"

"Well, for that matter, you have to eat a lot of bread and meat."

"Really?"

"If you're as serious as you've ever been, you're not gonna grow up, and you're gonna quit."

"I didn't know."

"Hey, Arsh, I want to be able to make dinner"

"Maria!"

"I thought it was kind of bad. But I don't know what's good for me... and the Zashes are getting worse and worse..."

"So, hang in there with me?

I undertook to rebuild the Zashes.
