After that… about another half a year passed.

Since he couldn't find a way to go back, Yongye could only find a way to make himself stronger and learn the techniques that the weak in this world use to fight against the strong. In this world, magic that hurts a thousand enemies and damages eight hundred.

On this day, Yong Ye, as usual, was familiar with the skills in the sanctuary, but happened to hear the whereabouts of the 18th generation regular hero Mars D. Verina.

He was naturally full of interest in the eighteenth generation of brave men, and wanted to acquire the opponent's martial arts, so he went straight to the brave man, hoping to teach him martial arts.

During the period of Yongye's continuous study, the little princess Lilia, the protagonist of the tragedy, was kept in various places, and then was constantly pushed around for various reasons.

After going to various places, the young girl was asked to play a different role than before, and let the princess who died of the country be the protagonist of the tragedy, because she is indeed tragic enough.

Lilia listens to what adults say very much, and will play the role she is asked for with a smile. Sadness, anger, pain, hatred, and despair, she obeys the will of the adults around her as required, with a weak smile on her face. Show them those expectations without smiling.

As long as they see her tragic aggregate, other people will feel that they are lucky and happy in contrast, and their mood will be relatively better.

It’s almost winter today. In the icy cold weather, young Lilia sits under the tree with her knees folded, and looks at the pedestrians who are constantly flowing on the street. The old man, who is already in bad health because of the situation in the Kingdom of Knights, is suffering. She couldn't stop being beaten to death. This is how many times she changed her place of residence, and now the adults are discussing how to arrange her, the tragic princess who lost her country.

As usual, this will be another day of acting, next to the roots of the dead tree, the girl tries not to look at the pedestrians on the street with her forehead close to her knees, because she just saw a pair of parents and children in harmony, so she can no longer be able to. Endure the loneliness that I have become accustomed to.

There are very few survivors of the Knighthood, and the only old man she knew who took her died. In this way, all relatives and friends in the world have disappeared, and only their own situation is left, even an adult and a veteran soldier. It's unbearable, and it's normal to lose hope of living, let alone a child.

She looked at the spiders on the dead wood nearby, and couldn't help thinking, spiders live alone in the world, but they just lie on the web alone every day, why do they live? Is it enough to eat, drink, and hunt every day? Is this kind of life really interesting?

But at this time, footsteps accompanied by the sound of metal collisions came towards her.

Raising his head, the figure in his memory, as if he was a young man in a wartime uniform all the time, appeared in front of his eyes, and he squatted down once again to reveal a kind smile that was extremely incompatible with him. hands on his head.

"...I remember you, little princess Lilia Asprey? What are you doing here?"

"Strong... Lord Yong Ye?"

The little princess almost blurted out her instinctive first impression, but the princess' recuperation made her quickly change her mind, and stood up from the ground with a habitual dignified smile.

"Lord Yongye, where are you going? Sweeping away demons and evil spirits? Or crusade against aliens?"

"Well... Compared with those things that are all good, I'm more curious. What about the interior official next to you?"

It is impossible to say that he is going to find a brave man to learn his art, and now he has not found anyone. When he arrived at the location, the eighteenth generation of brave man who had been with a strange whereabouts has disappeared, so he can only return in disappointment, and pay attention on the way. The acquaintances who came to this road came to have a look.

"If you are talking about Mr. Mori, unfortunately, Mr. Mori has passed away due to physical problems."

"Is that so...then you are now...?"

"Lord Yong Ye don't need to worry, Lilia is now receiving help from people with good intentions."

Yes, it is indeed the help of kind-hearted people, because helping a princess of a kingdom is a good talk for nobles, and will be regarded as a symbol of good-heartedness, especially when they see unfortunate people around, they will be compared. Considering herself lucky, so she, Lilia's job is to play misfortune.

"…Really? Good luck, then."

Not knowing how to evaluate this matter, Yong Ye just thought for a while in silence, then got up to say goodbye, while the young princess said goodbye with a requested, full of sadness, but polite smile.

"Yes, please walk slowly."

"..."

Nodding indifferently, Yong Ye walked away with the sound of metal collision under the watchful eyes of the girl.

Lilia looked at the back of the mixed white and golden armor at the other side of her sight, silently watching the back disappear at the end of the street. This is the back that once rushed into the kingdom of knights that had turned into a sea of ​​fire, and it was the back that she longed for.

And it was at this time that she remembered that she seemed to have forgotten to thank the other party for revenge for the motherland.

Looking up at the sky, the dark cloudy sky is gradually falling with drizzle. Without getting instructions to leave, Lilia can only play here, the princess who deliberately rains on rainy days because of sadness.

The sun is about to set in the west, and there is a drizzle in the sky, but Yong Ye has no plans to hide from the rain, nor to speed up. On the way back, my hair was soaked by the drizzle, and I didn't care too much. I just stopped halfway and muttered alone.

"Sure enough... let's go back and have a look."

He took a lot of benefits from others, but in the end he just killed the group of ancient spirits, and nothing was recovered. This made Yong Ye feel a little guilty about the kingdom of knights, so he decided that if Lilia's child, when he returned, was already I'll leave her alone when I get home, and if not... think about it.

In fact, as imagined, Lilia always stood in place, letting the falling raindrops hit her on the edge of the road.

The sound of thunder came from afar. Whenever it exploded, the little girl's fingertips would also tremble. It was obvious that she was suppressing her inner fear.

"...It's raining but still standing on the side of the road, helping your kind people, doesn't seem very kind."

Coming to the girl's side, facing the girl's astonished gaze, Yong Ye followed his current judgment and said this sentence without giving her any face.

And the kind middle-aged woman actually walked out when she saw Yong Ye wearing the armor of a paladin, because there were only six paladins, and each of them had great power, no less than that of ordinary nobles. , so she wanted to pretend to persuade Lilia not to get in the rain.

Hearing Yong Ye's words, this famously kind middle-aged lady immediately complained.

"Lord Paladin! You are wronged! This child is so pitiful that I can't even take care of her! It's just that she is in a bad mood and I can't do anything about it... In fact, I always have this poor child in my heart. The poor child is regarded as his own flesh and blood!"

"Okay, don't snot and cry, this child... I have a good personal relationship with his father, so let me take care of him for the time being."

"…Ugh?"

Not only the woman, even Lilia was stunned. Didn't his father call him a robber behind his back? Is it actually a good relationship? ? It doesn't make sense, or is it... a surface brother?

Under the circumstances that Lilia is completely unclear about the status quo, the famously kind middle-aged lady, naturally cannot go against the words of the chief paladin, and can only let Yongye lead the princess who can be used to gain a good name. gone.

The sky was still gray, and Lilia, who was originally the same as the sky, suddenly had a ray of light. She felt that she might be able to change, so she carefully followed the tall man in front of her.

There was nothing special to do, Yong Ye took Lilia directly back to the church. It was definitely not his home, but at least it was a temporary place to live. Although it was not comfortable, it was not intolerable.

In front of the huge church sanctuary, the church knights guarding the gate and the pastor passing by saluted Eternal Night and cast curious glances at the wet Lilia.

Yong Ye went all the way back to the dormitory assigned to him by the church, but suddenly he didn't know what to do with the child behind him. He had to find a pastor to raise him... Wrong, he should raise him, or let the pastor find a truly kind person, Not those nobles who like to put on a show.

"Anyway... take off the fake smile on your face first, I'm terrified, and then take a shower and change your clothes."

Sitting on the chair, Yong Ye, who felt a little headache about this kind of thing, waved his hand to the girl who entered the room with him without raising his head, and pointed to the independent bathroom next to the room. , indicating that the other party can solve the physical problem by himself.

"…bath?"

"Do you want me to help you?"

"No, it's just clothes..."

"Oh, you're right, you didn't bring any clothes..."

Suddenly I remembered that it was so sudden that Lilia didn't bring anything in her clothes, and she didn't have time to pack her things. The child only had one set of clothes on her body.

"Speaking of... Do you have anything you want to bring? For example, something that represents your parents' memories. Would you like me to have someone accompany you back to get it?"

"It doesn't matter, Lord Paladin, those things are gone."

"…Too."
