Master of the brave.

corner of the city of Teito. Corner of the street corner close to the walls.

Around the walls are the districts inhabited by the poorest strata, as residents of the imperial capital.

Small stone house.

One man had a clumsy hand in his daytime support, putting a fire in the trenches mounted between its earths.

"Are you hungry?

"Yeah, I'm fine"

When I spoke to my 10-year-old daughter, who was in the living room between the earth and the room, she replied yes.

I lost my wife, one father, one daughter.

As she turned to the living room as she turned the pan around, her daughter was fixing things with familiar hands.

"Good boy. We're almost there, so just wait."

"Yeah."

The contents of the pan are porridge made of wheat. It also adds root vegetables, such as potatoes and carrots, and beans.

The luxury could not be said of a man who was a poor meal but could not do his job in a standout because of circumstances.

"All right, we're done."

I took every pot to the living room and poured grain porridge into the vessel to my daughter, who was hungry who could dust her face off, and the sound of knocking on the door of the house sounded like a ton.

When the man stands up quietly, he takes the sword that was placed in the corner of the living room.

I stopped my daughter's hand eating porridge and watched her father look up anxiously, stroking her head to reassure her, and she headed to the entrance.

Pull the sword out of its sheath and hold it in your right hand, opening the door thinly.

"... what is it, you"

It was a face I saw.

Loosen your expression, loosen your nervous whole body.

When I saw how it was, my daughter, who had an anxious look on her face, also started eating porridge.

"This week."

"Appreciate it"

The visitor hands a bag with jalali and coins in the man's hand.

The contents are as much gold as father and daughter can live carefully.

Compared to the amount a man used to earn, it is only a small amount.

But I couldn't tell the man the luxury.

"And a message from that one - 'I'm sorry for the hard work. A little more patience, please. That's it."

"I wish I could tell you it's a waste of time"

The customer nodded with a strange look on his face at the words.

"Are you working out - no, that was a stupid question..."

I just looked at the muscles in my arms peeking out of a man's shirt, and I can see he's being worked up.

Same as before - no, I've spent more time working out before, and the guy couldn't get the time to break into work.

And this is from me.

The customer took one of the wraps out of the bag that was hanging on his waist and offered it to the man.

I put my stripper sword against the wall and it weighed snugly when the man took the wrap.

Fresh meat when you look inside.

"Pork. Feed her daughter."

The man bowed his head to the word.

Meat is a luxury.

That's also fresh meat. I haven't spoken as though it's been here lately.

"A little more patience."

That said, the customer left.

The man, whose head was bowed until the customer closed the door, looked back at the living room as he locked the door.

My daughter sees the wrap her father has.

I guess I heard the word 'pork' the guests said.

Saw my daughter's face with a color of anticipation somewhere, the man said.

We're having a treat tonight.

My daughter's face glistened.

◇ ◆ ◇ ◆ ◇

Morning market held in front of the South Gate Square.

Filling the morning air is the fragrant smell of meat cooking, the smell of spices, or the smell of freshly baked bread.

Those smells were drifting through the alley, and a large crowd was crossing.

A number of simple dewstores have been set up with tents, and the shopkeepers raise their voices to arouse the interest of their customers by thoughtfully arranging food such as meat, vegetables and spices on the cloth, as well as suspicious chemicals and craps and ornaments that they don't know what to use for.

"Unlike the image I had in mind, I was surprised. It's a lively and fun place."

Cornelia groaned with a rare view of the various products lined up.

"If we pay for a place here, anyone can open an outdoor shop. So besides the citizens, there are people who live outside the walls who open shops."

"You have to wake up early in the morning."

take on Winn's words. When Leticia laughed and said,

"I woke up early."

Cornelia laughed and nodded with pleasure.

"Hehe, the vibrant morning air wouldn't be bad either, would it?

Celli walking in front of Leticia and Cornelia looks back.

"It's like a festival."

Both the voice of the call of the store and the chatter of the guests on the road were overflowing with enthusiasm to "sell" and "buy good things", and felt vibrant in the body of nature Cornelia.

"Is it always like this?

"This is more or less the case. When I first came here with you, I thought you were at a festival."

"Your brother was here to buy it when he finished his morning workout."

Leticia looks back behind her back.

Winn was walking behind the three girls.

"Yes, yes. After the run, after the audition."

"Your body moves a lot, right?"

After rigorous training, Celi tells me like she was impressed when she heard she was working.

"After exercising, I was so hungry. Letty used to hang out in front of the outdoor shop."

"Yes!? That's not true!

"Jeez, if you stare at me like I want something, the guy at the store will probably break into that gaze and give me some food."

Winn says it was like a puppy was being fed,

"Speaking of which, you also said that Mr. Poulat, Leticia always had something to mog about,"

"Ugh..."

I got stuck up to Cornelia and Leticia couldn't say anything back.

He sends a resentful gaze to Winn, who provided this topic, so when Winn turned his gaze around to delude him, the people who watched the Winns turn away from him.

Leticia and Cornelia wore a simple outfit called trousers on their shirts, but they were very noticeable because they wore an exceptionally neat face and a different atmosphere than Shirai's daughter.

Seli also has a mix of elf blood, so her appearance isn't so inferior compared to the two of them.

Inevitably, gather your gaze even if you're just walking.

That would be even worse if I smiled and seemed to enjoy myself.

It is a market so crowded that it bumps into each other with people, but it was very easy to walk because the crowd cracks at will as they approach.

Sometimes Winn was walking from behind because he gathered his gaze, but also because it was easier to follow him from behind.

"Oh, there it is."

Seri suddenly swept out to one of the dewstores.

A woman in her mid-thirties and a teen or so children were helping her out in the outhouse she headed to.

"Good morning, Auntie!

"Oh, it's not Celi. I haven't seen your face in a while, so I was worried about you, Auntie. I was wondering if you got sick or maybe you got involved in an example kidnapping..."

"Me, good health is all that matters, isn't it? But it's been a lot of noise lately, so I don't have to walk around."

Celi smiled like she was in a bit of trouble.

"Yeah, yeah. Ceri's cute, so hey. I'm worried about my kid getting caught up in it. Look, my clothes are messing up again, come here."

Inside a simple, narrow dew shop where the woman shopkeeper just tented the tent. I'll catch my daughter walking around a little bit, and I'll groom her long clothes like a messy robe.

"Leena's okay because she's solid, right?

"Yeah, your mother's too worried"

A woman's daughter - a girl called Leena - was made an adult but left to say so in her mouth.

Celi looked at her mother and daughter like that with a smile.

"So, what does Celi want today?

"Auntie, I'm not shopping today. In fact, these people want to talk to you about the kidnapping..."

"That's good," he said. You want to talk to me? More noisy than that... "

After finishing her daughter's clothes and nodding contentedly, the woman looked back at Celi with an astonishing look on her face, at some point she realized that she was able to get a crowd around her shop.

And in front of the store stood a beautiful girl with a terribly neat appearance, with her golden hair sparkling in the morning sun and her emerald jewel-like eyes, and some noble atmosphere, with a soft beauty no less than that of her.

"Wow... uh... are these the customers?

For a moment, the woman, who had been seen by the two girls, managed to squeeze out words for Celi, but the voice went up.

Neither of us are just ordinary citizens, no matter how we look at it.

The outfit is the one wearing the simple stuff, but this makes me wonder if I'm going to be disguised.

Especially since she also makes an effort to hide her daughter's identity, I guess she thinks even more so.

Anyway, she walks over to the two girls with a little nervousness, wondering what it was like for herself, the outdoor shopkeeper, two people who clearly felt out of place.

"Oh yeah...... what is it you want to ask me?

I was afraid that's the woman who asked, but the answer to that query was something she didn't expect.

"Mr. Laura? It must be Mr. Laura!? And Leena, too!

"Huh? Huh?

Woman - Laura is suddenly called her own name by a blonde girl to make her eyes black and white.

And Leena, her daughter, who was also called by her name, rushed over to the blonde girl to make sure she jumped out of the store.

"Letty! It's Letty! Wow, Winn, your brother too!

That's when I noticed a young man standing behind the girls. People's goodness. He looked carefree. He was surprised and his eyes were round.

"It's been a while. Laura, and Leena."

Hearing that voice, behind Laura's brain, a young man scratching her head behind her like it was lit in front of her, and a girl holding her daughter, Leena - Iferina - tied her to the appearance of the little boy and young girl of an adventurer she once asked for.

"Oh, oh! Mr. Wynn, Letty, was that you guys? Grow really big..."

Laura tears in nostalgia.

Cornelia and Celi, who don't know what's going on, look at the four people who rejoice in such a reunion.

But watching the four people who seemed really happy to miss them made them both feel somewhat warm.
