“It's nothing… I’m just looking around… I’m just new in this town after all.”I continue looking at him observing his expression if he was lying.I don’t think he's one of those knights chasing me. Feels like he didn’t even recognize me. He looks like an average adventurer. He has a sword o his waist. He must be a swordsman class adventurer. But he's not wearing armor. He does wear an arm plate and that’s all.“Really? Then, have a nice meal.”I responded and turned my face back to my food.While I was eating I still felt his stare on me. Making me uneasy I go to confront him again.“Why are you still looking at me?”“It’s nothing, I just thought that your like a kid while eating.”After he said those words he goes back facing his food opposite to my seat. Being treated as a child is nothing new to me. I would be lying if I don’t felt irritated hearing similar comments every time.It wasn’t my fault that I look extremely young and cute.After eating dinner, I stood up from my seat and
“Don’t pull the blanket!”He complained while I pulled out the small thin blanket that was never enough for two people to use. The snow has just melted away, but that doesn’t mean that the winter wind is already gone. In addition, Stella city is located in the northern region. Half of the springtime would still be cold.I don’t complain about the church because there are plenty of kids there that would be happy to share their warmth. Right now, it is a completely different story.“But it's too cold… Why the heck did you rent this kind of room in the first place?”He suddenly pulled all of the blankets away from me, facing me. Resulting in me rolling.“You’re so selfish… Have you ever heard the saying ‘Spoiled the woman’?”Hearing my plea, he turned his head to me and responded.“What kind of saying is that? I had never heard anything like that before. If that’s true, then become a woman first.”Staring at my chest. He made fun of my childish appearance. I’m used to it, but there are t
Under the moon. Slave traders are all on their way to the capital city black market to sell new slaves. the Slave traders boos named Klaus are looking forward to the business his going to do with his new products."Young and slender... Strong and muscular... These slaves will surely make tons and tons of money.""Master Klaus how about these scrawny girls? Their chest is underdeveloped and they look very weak.""Well, many old men want girls like that as their toy. If those girls are the dress with something frilly and made to look cute. They will surely fill my pockets.""Please give me back to my parents!""Me too, I missed my parents so much.""I want to go home."the little girls said as they look toward Klaus with begging eyes."Don't bother to talk to master... You're all abandoned by your parents. They sold their children for some wealth. If you have to blame someone. Blame your parents who give birth to you."Klaus's assistant answered the girls."It's so sad to think... Love
Sunbeam coming from the window radiated my face. Wakes me up on a cold lazy morning. The snow covered the surroundings of the house in white. Kids giggling and playing in snowball fights could be seen outside. Instead of playing with them, I continue to curl myself in my soft yellow blanket and hug the giant teddy bear beside me."Lenny! Lenny! This kid really is not moving in this season."Said the brown-haired woman wearing an apron. She is my most wonderful mother in the world.However…She snatched my teddy bear and forced me to get up."Mama! Mama! I wanted to sleep more..." I protested and buried myself under the blanket."No more sleeping…. We have lots of work to do… There's a fruit in the forest that can only be harvested every winter morning. It would be a shame if we didn't get it.""Then, you should go by yourself.""This little kid is growing up irresponsible."My mother said as she scratched her head."Lia-chan, I think it's okay for Lenny to stay like that. It's winter
What is this? A dream?The river and grass trail in front of me were so familiar to me.

I want to see you here again…“My mother!”The surroundings started to make a creaking sound. The land and the mountain started to crumble in my own eyes. Everything breaks apart like a glass mirror.I keep on running trying to reach my hand to the house near the hill.♦♦♦♦♦I jump out of my bed as I woke up."Lenny? Do you have a bad dream?Grandma asked.I replied with a nod small nod. I know I have a bad dream but I can’t seem to remember anything."Lenny why you're crying?"When grandma said that I found myself crying. Placed my fingertip at underneath my eyes. My finger was moistened by my tears.I immediately wipe my tears an

"Running toward the deepest part of the forest. I continue to search for Konoha’s location. The foul scent in the air is worse. The reason for that was the number of corpses hanging around the forest.I was worried and angered. These mixed emotions keep on whirling around my heart. Just like Hikari, I don’t want a good innocent person to die.While searching, I stumble upon some monsters living in the forest.

She is walking steadily on the trail, slowly.It put a brief smile on my face seeing her fine. To the forest full of monsters. Konoha manages to live. I was so worried about her safety I searched the entire forest last night.“Konoh
