"Hey! You really need to relax for a while."

A girl speaks up to a man walking in front of her in the middle of the market.

A man connects his hand with the boy who pulls his hand, pulls every boy pinched, and calls on the man.

On the left and right side, the familiar stalls and shops opened narrowly, and he smiled at them to make them buy the goods by calling casually to take care of the children.

"Uh? The Lord said so. I let him work through here lately, so he wants you to do whatever you want for a month.

Because of the large number of people, the man looked troublesome and returned the words while wearing the hood deeply. The boy grabbing the man's arm in the words raised his voice as he firmly connected each of his right and left hands to stay away from the man and the girl.

"Where is Val headed now? Is this Mr. Bail's shop?"

Boy... Val scratched his head over the hood in Chemetho's words.

"Not bad," he says, roughly accounting for the possession of his nostalgia in his head. Bounty received from Stayle for one of the defensive fights that was six months ago. I have been working ever since and haven't used it at all more than necessary. For a long time, they had had enough snacks and liquor to rob from the Jilbel family, and their nostrils were now greatly overmoistened.

In the unlikely event that they both have small sums of money, Val still holds most of the funds for the three of them.... However, since the slave contract does not allow us to get to any money other than our own, it is the current situation that we are literally "just keeping" the money for both of us.

As a result, there was also a desire to use a number of extra heavy sachets just to make them somewhat lighter.

"It's hard to be domestic for a while, right? I get permission from the Lord to leave the country on vacation or outside of work... but you don't even have to go out now.

Outside the country is not uncommon for the Vals, who cross the country every day as deliverers.

Instead, until today, my stay in the Kingdom of Friesia was even short. I was running around the country, except for delivering deliveries.

As a sinner, he finds it ridiculous that he should not have been able to leave the country without permission under a servitude contract, and that it is at last rarer to be in the country after undertaking the work of a courier.

Because we are in the king's capital of the great powers, it would be good to play here. It's not a bad chill in a borough outfit if you dare to come and go to a delightful neighborhood or a store where only the upper echelons of humans come and go.

With that in mind, Chemetho and Sefek follow quickly with their hands drawn to Val, who dares not walk away from the castle just now.

"Is the delivery to Hanazoo good?" I've been interacting!

"Yes! If it wasn't for us, it'd be hard to get a response.

Val repeated her tongue annoyingly at the two inquiries.

Working stuffing here these days. Much of it was a round trip between the United Kingdom of Hanazoo and the Kingdom of Friesia. Many times since Pride's Birthday, which was three months ago, the Vals kept going back and forth on a journey that would take ten days if they took a royal carriage.

Many long round-trip deliveries, even though the exchange between the original allies has settled. Besides, Cedric and Pride were both quick to write back. Val seriously thinks it would be easier to deliver either of them in person. After replacing her letters with the Queen, Rosa, and the United Kingdom of Hanazoo, she became pinched for a little while and went back and forth better, but still hassle-free.

Moreover, during the past three months, Yoan of the United Hanazoo Kingdom, the Style of the Kingdom of Friesia, Cedric of the United Hanazoo Kingdom and the Birthday Festival continued, and each time a letter was handed over, a large number of items of celebration were carried. In addition, when I stopped by the kingdom of Anemone last month, Leon gave me a large quantity of deliveries for Arthur's birthday to the Knights. Leon gave me the money, but I still feel bad when I think it's a delivery to the knight.

"Almost both Prince Fool and the King of Hanazoo have already exchanged. Until three months away, we await the Queen's reply.

That's why Val and the others were allowed a long vacation in pride.

Val himself, I don't know what the hell kind of exchange he was having just to reciprocate the letter. Pride hasn't talked about interacting with Cedric either. And since Val hadn't even met Cedric in person, I couldn't have predicted what it would be like. However, since the Prides returned home from the United Hanazoo kingdom at Cedric's Birthday Festival last month, the writings had changed from personal from Pride to formal from Queen.

I can't imagine Val having little learning. However, I only felt the bad touch, somewhat uninteresting from the strange reaction from Pride and the grumpy appearance from the occasional look of the style. I have a bad feeling if I can stay unknown, I want to stay unknown for the rest of my life.

Kemeto peeked back at Val's arm as he rang his tongue again and distorted his face uncomfortably.

"Where does Val want to go?

I'm good anywhere! And Val, who turned once to Chemetho, who laughs, compares with Sefek. "I haven't decided yet," I said back, finally loosening my legs there. A lot of people go and go because of the time approaching dusk. Cefek and Chemetho, which used to be buried in the shadows of the adults, but now they are both quite easy to find from Val's gaze.

"... Think belly-up?

The two eyes shone as Val got his hands on his nostalgia whining like that.

Hand the two of them a few meals at a time, thinking they were still hungry. Chari, and along with the light sound, the two received it with both hands. Marking the long Val, each of them rushed to the stall of their choice. They used to shop together in the same store even away from Val, but now they were each buying more in different stores.

Unlike Val, who makes immediate decisions about alcohol and meat, the two take more than twice as long to choose. Val exhaled, thinking it would probably take another while to get back. gazing at each of the directions they ran and went. It is a superior market among the castle towns classified as Wang Du and not even begging. The Kingdom of Friesia itself, security is now quite calm. If it's a castle town or even a king's capital, there's rarely even a burglary.

... Well, that still doesn't make it totally warm.

It's not like I know where people like me are. Though I thought so, I was also angry that my choice of that market thus seemed to admit a little loss.

The more insecure you are, the easier it is to do business, the easier it is for you to live, which is how you have now appeased to the good security, to that fact.

Mixing some groaning and moaning and leaking a low voice, he still doesn't just fail to be vigilant.

……

"Fruit... Fruit...

Sefek wanders around and looks at the stall, whining small and over again not to forget his purpose.

Even if I decide what I want to eat, this is how I look past the various stalls. I often forgot what I wanted to eat when I realized it.

Unlike Val, Sefek, who also has trouble wearing a hood, can speak up to stalls and shops especially many times. Dressing doesn't look wealthy, but young girls are prone to be heard in any market.

I've been doing this for a long time now, before I even met my eyes. "My lady! I'll keep it cheap." "Look, you can do it!" He leaves early, one step behind when he is called out. If I were with Chemetho or Val, I wouldn't be able to speak up easily, but they really targeted me for being alone.

While searching for the object, he hastens to the next stall without returning a reply, loosens his legs again, looks at the store, and rushes again when spoken to. Compared to the old days, adults can now relate by themselves, but still remain unconscious. Even if you can behave in a temperament in front of Chemetho or Val, your fear is not completely wiped.

... but what a bad outfit just for me even though Chemetho is fine.

As long as you take a distance, you can reply. I can stay flat if it's about shopping. Still, I'm hesitant to look into my eyes and talk.

I couldn't find what I was looking for and unconsciously wore the hood softly. Still, anyone can guess being a woman in a girly silhouette. When I lifted my face while holding down the hood, I finally saw the fruit shop a little further. Hold down the hood with both hands to finish shopping quickly and hurry your feet

─ Dodd.

Suddenly, I bumped into people.

I didn't notice any crossing shadows because I was leaning over with my hood on. Thoughtfully bumped into each other, got laid, got his hands on the ground. No injuries, but there was more confusion about getting bumped into than that.

The person Sefek bumped into just let go and he called out, "Are you okay?" simultaneously reached out to his hand and his voice. Sefek was

I was attacked by unspeakable disgust and fear.

………………⁈

Even myself, I don't know why all of a sudden such emotions came up. I've hit people many times before. Often the other person is an adult man over himself. Once upon a time, he was spit on, stoned, and kicked. Still, I could get up as soon as I fell, and return about a "okay, sorry" word these days. And yet, it's really nothing now.

Wonder and blood caught on the hand offered, as his hips slipped into the ground. "What's wrong," he asked, raising his face, and the disturbed hood went down to his back with a parsley.

The brown-haired girl appeared dewy and her bloody face looked up at the man in front of her. I feel like I recognize you somewhere. I can't help but look away from that man.

"What's wrong? No way. Even in physical condition...?

The man, who is kind enough to worry about Sefek, circled his eyes on her blue-white face.

I suspected he was a suddenly ill man and gently put his hands on his back. Can you stand, he asks, and Sefek finally squeezes only a faint voice out of his throat saying, "It's okay..."

Stand up of your own free will with your hands and feet to escape assistance from men. If I tried to leave the spot sparingly while I was paying off the dust of my clothes, I paid off the dust of Sefek's clothes first with a hand the man was used to. Suddenly he was touched, and the body of Wonder and Sefek solidified like ice.

"I was inadvertently looking at you... excuse me. Are you sure you're hurt or in good health?

Sefek replied with a vain eye to a man peering into the same face height in an attempt to meet Sefek.

Still, to a girl with a superior complexion to see, a man suggests a place off the market to rest somewhere, but Cefek shakes his neck sideways. The man, dressed in fine clothes, looks worried and peeks at Sefek over and over but her answer remains the same. She spins words with her trembling lips when a man never leaves and her feet have hardened herself.

"It's okay... I'm sorry,... I'm sorry, I'm sorry... I'm sorry... let...?

Even myself, I don't know why those words came out.

I just felt like I had to say that reflexively to the person in front of me. The man also twisted his neck as confused by being suddenly thanked, and his eyes... rounded.

"... you are.

Unexpectedly, a man leaks a lower voice than he did earlier in such a way.

I kept staring at Sefek's face, which I should have watched many times, with a completely different look than before.

No way, no... but here I am. I look at Sefek from top to bottom, whining and suspicious all by myself. to the color of his hair and eyes. The man traced his memory and grabbed her shoulders with both hands

"Hey."

... On the brink of it, a voice even lower than he was, was released to break them both off.

The two turn at the same time to that voice of mixed animosity and that which they are accustomed to hearing. If you capture it in your sight, Val, who is obviously in a bad mood to stare at the man, and Chemetho, who grabs that arm, stood. Both of them with their hoods on. Their eyes beneath them are still pointed at the man and Sefek.

"What can I do for our kid?

He glanced at Guillaume, and the contract did not allow blackmail. He put pressure on the man with the minimum of words necessary.

Only sharp eyes are fixed to stab and pierce the man as he walks toward Sefek and the man with a hinge and gravity. The man who muttered small "of our..." to Val's words retreated after the apparent vicious appearance of Val.

Once somewhat closer to Sefek, Chemetho rushed out at once before Val and touched Sefek's shoulder, which remained solidified, "Are you okay?"

Shaking his body in all agitation, Val, entering between Sefek and the men, asked again, "What can I do for you?" and glared at the man. The man rings his throat with a goku, but stops moving like a frog stared at by a snake.

"... are you... the child's... parent...?

"Do I look like I have a kid like this?

Val's appearance is vicious, but the age difference between him and the Sefeks was halfway to seeing him as a parent and child. Still, I wondered if he was seen at that age, and the man turned back small to Val, staring at him with his tongue pounding, "No..."

Disgusted by a man with a very bad tooth cut, Val turns back to Cefek and Chemetho once. I noticed that Chemetho said, "Sefek says it's okay!" Returning it, "he finally loosened his guard from Val. Ha... he sighed sick and turned his back on the man. Sefek, call Chemetho and his two names and turn to them gently.

"... let's go.

Using Val's words as a signal, Chemetho took Sefek's hand. The more reflexively Sefek grips back, the stranger his hands and feet move normally.

Yeah, and Chemetho pulled my hand as I gave it back, and ran across the man to Val's side. Then a man shouted, "Wait," as he panicked. Val looked back softly as he glanced at the volume enough for the people going to and from the market to look back at it unexpectedly.

"The child is yours,... what? Sefek, that is………"

Val looks at the man who asks without blinking and doesn't know what it means.

Instead, he was called out loud to ask the same question again if he tried to ignore it and leave, even wanting to hear back the man's intention to ask the question. It was such a wake-up call that the guards and knights who heard the noise were about to rush.

Nothing stood out any more, and Val went bad with his hood pulled at his fingertips. If it's true, I want to hit a man on this spot and shut him up, but I can't do that either. I have no choice but to stop and stare at the man.

"... Sefek. You know him?"

I doubt the man in front of me will stick around strangely and ask Sefek only with his voice.

If he turned his eyes only slightly afterwards, Sefek held Chemetho's hand strongly and opened his mouth while hiding his body slightly on Val's back.

"... I don't know.

I confirmed Sefek shaking his head with just one word of that, and I saw a man.

I find myself in a man who rounds his eyes as surprised by her words, apparently unilaterally acquainted or different from others. I tried to turn my back again, but I couldn't help but open my mouth to find it troublesome to be summoned.

"It's a mistake. Sefek is his name, it has nothing to do with Temehe.

Now you're satisfied, or you keep going, and now you grab Sefek's hand from Val.

Sefek, who touched Val's hand with the opposite hand to the one connecting with Chemetho, shook it back with much strength. But still, the man eats down. He screams that he hasn't answered the first question, and even the kidnapper becomes obnoxious. Think about how Val should seriously shut the man up about that momentum that really seems to call for a guard.

It's also hard to stand out, but if you can get a guard and make it difficult, you really can't help but be made a kidnapper of two. There have been several times before that it can be seen that way because of the poor phase, except rather for the different colors of the appearance. Even with that in mind, the man's calling never stops. I also wonder if I would use my abilities to escape in public readiness.

"I am of the Bastard family! Depending on what happens, I can capture you. If you don't like it, answer me! How did you get that kid..."

"It's my family."

Chemetho's still high boy-like voice sounded, blocking the man's words.

Kemeto, with a little vigilance for the man, turns his face straight to say it out. When the man stopped his words to a very clear assertion, Chemetho opened his mouth to continue, laughing and showing it.

"Sefek is my sister and Val is our family! So it has nothing to do with your uncle. I don't know anything about my uncle either.

Let's go, and Chemetho moved on to pull Sefek and Val.

Sefek, who held hands with Chemeth, next walks out, and Val walks out so that he can be pulled. I turned my back on the man again, but now I didn't get any words back.

If Val looked back small enough to catch on, the man would still stare at this one with the bar standing. The next time I looked at Sefek, I was staring at Chemetho with his mouth poking open as he continued to pull himself forcefully so that he was no longer interested in the man. For the first time, Val himself saw Chemetho release words from the front so clearly besides people close to him.

As he noticed Val and Sefek's gaze, Chemetho laughed as illuminated as he turned to the two of them.

"... me, could you dress up and protect Sefek like Val right now?

Val and Cefek blinked at the same time to Chemetho, whose legs loosened naturally and backwards as usual from the posture that pulled them both.

"... thanks.

Sefek shook Chemetho's hand back hard with his reply.

Already confused by the crowd, the man was invisible. Having confirmed that, Val took his hand off Sefek once and bought two apples at a nearby store. Keep it up and hand it to the two of you without saying anything.

Chemetho happily said, "Thank you!" When he raised his voice, Val placed that hand he handed over on the heads of the two men as it was.

The moment he clawed an apple alongside Chemetho, Sefek finally remembers that he was hungry. To thank her briefly as she also moistened her throat in sweet fruit juice, Val turned her back and walked out again. Kemeto and I continued perfectly on that back, while Sefek continued to play the apple without saying anything for a while. I don't know where I'm going, I don't even know if Val decided to go.

But now, I don't care where I go.
