Being poor is not good (4)

I suddenly felt my hands and feet tremble just by thinking of my face for no reason. I'm not angry. It's just hard to understand.

‘I'm not wrong. ’

Of course.

It's very natural to help people. Yes, it's perfectly natural.

‘I don't know anything. ’

No one comes in because they want to enter the Slum.

Everyone has a story.

Some have not been contacted by the guild or the clan, and some have become crippled on their way out to hunt.

Some people get thrown out on the street because of sick families and sometimes they can't get a job.

In other words, this society has led them to the streets.

Lindell, the Holy Empire, no, the continent itself is wrong.

A society that is indifferent to abbreviations. And a selfish society.

They say they have benefits, but the poor don't.

Someone had to make a move on this continent that was only moving its own interests.

“You'd be in danger. ”

“No, it won't be dangerous. ”

“Well, whatever you think, it's your freedom. But you'd better have a minimum of protection. because we don't know when or how or what's going to happen. ”

“Why do you think that is? ”

“Rather, I'd like to ask why you don't think so. ”

“You don't understand me because you're not looking right at them. ”

“I have the same answer. Rather, it was the priest who wasn't looking at them properly. They're not just poor, needy people. Those who want to stand up need help, not those who lie down on their own. ”

“I don't want to hear any more of that talk. ”

“Yes. I'm sure you can hear the ulcer. Sure.”

“Then I'll be on my way, as you said. I want you to keep your promise. ”

“Yes. Do you have one? Have a nice day. ”

Not worth answering.

No, even if you go to the Slum like this in the first place, nothing will change.

In fact, I didn't have to respond to this kind of joke.

Nevertheless, there is only one reason to enter the slum.

‘I'm not wrong. ’

I want to prove that I'm not wrong.

I wanted to prove him wrong.

There is definitely a difference between simply watching from a distance and living with them.

Everyone's just stupid and naive.

There was an old couple who gave thanks with tears, and a little boy who was picking flowers as a reward.

I've been watching a lot of things he hasn't seen in the last two years. I have spent a long time communicating and talking with them.

‘Because I didn't see it, I was able to say that. ’

I have not seen such a thing, so I can make such a sound.

As I move slowly, I feel that the atmosphere is getting darker.

I've been coming here with him every day, but I feel a little strange.

If you can't see the people who serve together even though it is time to eat, it seems that there is something wrong today.

This place is always the same.

I felt the stink of a nosebleed, but I've adapted for a long time now.

Compared to the first time, I am able to move around in a cool way thanks to my adaptation.

I turn my head and look around, and those who are still lying helpless come into view.

I can see people chatting, and I can see people looking at other areas.

The people who take care of the children also noticed, and the lovers who walk together with arms around their eyes.

He's right.

This is also a place where people live.

A place where very ordinary people live.

No amenities, no restaurants, and no proper homes.

I laughed for no reason.

‘Good.'

As we go a little deeper, the crowds come in.

‘Plaza.’

This is not a proper square. It was a wasteland with nothing, and it was a place where people would naturally gather as they began to look for this place, so they called it a square.

In other words, this is an iconic place that the slums call a shelter.

Setting down quietly on one side, the familiar faces caught my attention.

‘Obviously.’

Obviously one of the men he took.

I don't know why he should be here now, but something must have happened.

As I was looking around quietly, I began to hear a loud voice in my ears.

“Kim! Aren't you going to work today? ”

“What happened. ”

“Just because the old man hired me.... ”

“Ahh. I hit him. ”

“What?"

“It's been hard. I'm told to move some rocks, but honestly, it doesn't suit me. ”

“What? What did I tell you about starting over? ”

“I thought about it for a while. But it didn't make much difference to work there or eat her food here. ”

“If anyone hears, swear, man. ”

“Listen to me. I don't think he's coming today... I don't think he's working for nothing. What if he doesn't come here anymore? ”

“He'll be here. It might hurt today. ”

“How can a priest be sick? ”

“It could be that day. Even priests can't resist nature's providence, right? ”

“That makes sense. ”

Huh?

There was something I didn't understand.

I listened again to see if I had heard it wrong.

But it was not a mistake to hear.

I came and went with words I couldn't clearly understand.

‘Ah... ’

“This sucks... I'm starving... My body is full... ”

“I haven't seen that face in a while... ”

“Ah…. ”

It does not seem to refer to you exactly, but it is natural for you to be anxious.

After covering his face with a rough hand, he left the square.

I couldn't figure out why I ran away.

I just felt like I shouldn't stay there.

In fact, to be precise, I didn't want to listen to their conversations anymore, but I couldn't afford to think about them all at once.

‘You tamed them. ’

I heard the voice of the man in my head.

As the palm turned upside down, an unintelligible landscape came into view.

I can see scenes that I haven't seen so far.

“I'll make it cheap for you. ”

“The money smells amazing. ”

“I knew he was following him... of course I knew. ”

“Puha.”

Lovers who walk with arms crossed don't look like lovers anymore.

A middle-aged woman looking for courtesans and courtesans.

“Is this it? ”

“I'm... sorry. ”

“The babies are missing... ”

“Aah!”

The man who was with the children is not taking care of the children.

Vagabonds on the streets were choking on cheap rum, and many heard minorities persecuting minorities or men harassing women.

Even those who pretended not to see those who were lying in agony and complaining were left to be left alone after they vomited on the street.

“Hey!"

I am so embarrassed that I haven't heard such profanity.

‘Course it is. ’

Same everywhere.

There is no reason to be shaken.

There are bad people everywhere.

It is correct to ignore as much as possible to judge the whole as part of it.

However, I had no choice but to swallow the dried saliva.

What if he's right? ’

What if I'm really wrong?

‘What if it was part of what I saw and all he saw? ’

If it was you who wasn't seeing things right.

Different ideas are complicated.

I see things I haven't seen in a while.

I had never seen anything like it when I was helping them.

‘They're probably perpetrators somewhere, too. ’

He's right.

Those who thought they were weak should be assaulted somewhere. Wherever the assailant is.

The reason he has not been angry with himself so far is because he has always been above them.

The reason I haven't been a victim so far was because I was surrounded by a group of strong people dressed in good clothes.

Things are a little different now.

It was at that moment that I realized why he said he would be dangerous.

‘We have to get out. ’

Now he is also a member of this society. It was when I swallowed the dry saliva once and took a quick step.

“If you don't want to get stabbed, don't move. ”

I heard a voice behind my back.

It was a voice that felt like the sting was boiling.

What bothered me more was the presence of the blade that felt behind my back.

“Yes... yes? ”

“Bitch…. ”

“ ……. ”

“Even if I get caught, I get caught up in this. Did you really think you wouldn't find her if you had her tied up in a hood like that? ”

“W-what are you doing? ”

“Do you know and ask? Or are you asking because you don't know? ”

“D-don 't rush. ”

“Do you know how dangerous it is to walk around alone at night like this? ”

“S-save me... ”

“Don't worry, I won't kill you. You can't kill it.”

I understood roughly what was happening.

I could feel the hand on my back.

I thought constantly that I had to memorize the spell, but my mouth didn't fall well.

It was too sudden and my legs were trembling from the first time I experienced it.

I feel a fist in the back of my head when I don't hesitate.

“Gaaaahhhh!”

The body naturally moves to the side.

Before I woke up, I felt a strong touch on my hair. Despite desperately rolling their eyes to ask for help, the men who come into view quietly stare at themselves as if it were fun.

“H-help…. ”

I can see the faces I know.

I can see the people who appeared at the time of delivery.

They laughed and talked together.

Obviously, they had stories, and they were all naive people.

Of course I thought I would help.

It was wrong.

However, none of them reached out for help. Avoiding gaze or smiling with your fingers.

The responses were all the same.

“Don't do this. S-save me! ”

Punching the abdomen.

A strong hand swings across my cheeks.

It feels like my mouth is bursting, but I can't even scream.

A huge fist approaches you as you raise your divine power to recite the spell.

“Ahhhh!”

“ ……. ”

“Don't do this. Come on... Somebody help me. Please... help me. ”

“They're all like me here. Tell them to help." You're... new here, right? ”

“N-no. ”

“Did you come in here knowing that? By myself. Phew. Eat me. What are you doing? ”

We are not referring to the slums.

It was only a matter of time before this man realized the western part of the square.

It was hard to understand why this was a place that shouldn't be here.

It was always a place to walk on volunteer days.

A big face comes right up to you before you even think clearly.

“I think I can sell it at a good price.... ”

One face scrubbed with burns. It appears to be rotting everywhere.

I was so nauseous because of the stench all over my mouth and body.

“Woof.”

“Miss, do I disgust you? ”

“N-no. ”

I turn my head again.

I'm starting to feel a strong hand on my left cheek that chokes me before I even feel pain.

While I can hardly breathe, I feel pain throughout my body that I don't know who I am.

“You disgust me?! ”

“Ahhhh!”

“Me! You disgust me?! ”

“S-save me. Somebody... help me! ”

‘I'm gonna die... ’

“You'll get more disgusting looks in the future, but you shouldn't be so squeamish. Huh? We'll be sold to more places than we are right now. And before that, of course, have fun with us, okay? It will be. ”

‘Help me.'

“Please help... ”

“Lady, I don't know what you keep asking me to do... Who do you think can help you here?" If you need help, you should ask the nearby Clan vigilantes for help. There's no one here to help you. They're all busy living... ”

“Please…. ”

“Stupid bitch. Puh-huh-huh.”

‘Help... ’

With a very interesting expression and looking forward to what happens in the future, those who are watching themselves are not interested in saving someone.

‘It will be dangerous. ’

“N-no. ”

‘They're probably perpetrators somewhere, too. ’

“Help me. Someone... please... ”

‘People who want to get up need help, not people who are lying down. ’

“I'm sorry. Please... help me." ”

‘You're the one who turned them into dogs. ’

“Help me, I'm sorry! Please! Aaaah! Stop, stop! ”

“Well, what did I say? Priest.”

“Ah…. ”

"Not all the poor are good," he said. ”

When I turned my head, what I saw was the most unsightly face.
