Not a human baby
“That’s why I’m telling you that if you sign up now, you’ll get a huge benefit. You don’t know much about it, though···.”
I thought seriously while watching Adolgu explain in a passionate voice.
‘Does Cassidy only gather lungs?’
Looking back, all the kids I met here were missing something.
‘Because it’s a remote area.’
Cassidy was a useless place, even on the outskirts, blocked by mountains at the end. If you were to come to such a remote place, you would either be demoted or exiled.
“Look carefully. This is a stone statue that I specially made for the Kanggu Corps… If you touch it like this! Here! The hand holding the sword will turn!”
This knight, who took out a small stone statue and showed off by turning its arm, was likely both.
‘Well, all knights are originally strange.’
Although the royal knights were somewhat solid, they also had a somewhat psychopathic feel to them.
“I am politically neutral, so I cannot join such a thing.”
“Political…what?”
I refused with the most convincing words I could muster.
Adolgu opened his eyes wide and muttered what I had said.
I felt it last time, but the knights like to pretend to be stupid, so when they hear a difficult word, they pretend to understand it.
“Aaron! Are you here?”
At that moment, Hanna greeted me with a bright smile, so I was able to escape from Adolgu.
The hall was empty. A weasel stood in front of the main door with a serious expression, its sword drawn. It looked as if it would ring if anyone opened the door and came in, but it knew full well that it was just a pretense.
“Sales are a huge hit thanks to Aaron’s safe. Here you go!”
Hanna handed me the beer mug the three Hogu men had brought.
Hannah was talking about a new bar she was opening. It seemed like she was going to open it before Yeong-ae’s upcoming birthday, even if it meant pushing herself a little.
“Kuhh!!”
“Kuh! Member Kangoo!”
Next to them, Kanna and Adolgu, carrying buckets, saluted each other.
Adolgu asked Kanna something seriously, and Kanna, who noticed my reaction, answered quietly. Then, Hanna also moved over to him, and the atmosphere became like a meeting.
The words I heard occasionally sounded strange, but Deokgu was dead anyway, so it didn’t matter. Hae-na also gave me a decent amount of income.
Hannah was like a flower pot in many ways.
A silver coin copier that continuously copies silver coins when placed next to it.
“I told you not to! Hero Deokgu is politically neutral!”
“Political neutrality? What is that?”
“Ahem… There is something like that. Oh, thank you.”
It was quite surprising that he, a knight, could converse so well with a commoner woman. I watched him and then headed to the backyard.
I was just checking the safe, and there was a black shape on top of the safe.
The opponent was wearing a black hood, and his physique was familiar. Judging from the sauce soaking through his black hood, he was definitely the head of the young lady.
“I’m going to try to open the safe.”
Youngae, who found me, spoke in a low voice.
“Business hours are over.”
I tried hard not to notice and answered.
“Huh?! Business hours?!”
But it was hard to be fooled because Youngae raised her head and her face was clearly visible.
“Oh! Vivian?!”
“Huh… Are you surprised? I’m sorry if I surprised you too much.”
He quickly smiled arrogantly and muttered under his breath, “You’re so annoying.”
“Unfortunately, our business hours are over.”
“Ah! That can’t be! I came here because I heard there’s a new game!”
Young-ae Park, the girl with the big head, had a sad look on her face.
‘Isn’t this guy a little dangerous?’
I was a little hesitant because I didn’t know the exact physical specifications, but I still had a device in case of an unexpected situation.
I didn’t think I could open the safe because my head was so red, and it didn’t feel good to blush.
After a quick calculation, he nodded.
“Okay, 10 silver.”
“Huh?! 10 silver?!”
‘Did I shout too loudly?’
I thought it was a fair price from a noblesse oblige perspective, but judging from the response, it seemed like I had set the price too high. At that moment, I was about to lower the price-.
“It’s really cheap! I heard there’s a mountain of gold coins inside. What are you going to do with them later? If you keep doing this, you’ll be in big trouble! Big trouble.”
Yeong-ae waved her arms around with serious concern.
He took out a silver coin from inside his black hood and handed it over.
‘Hmm… A noble is a noble.’
I showed him the safe handle, slightly impressed by his noble sense of money.
“Haha- I’ve been learning a musical instrument recently, so my arm strength has gotten a lot stronger.”
Yeong-ae smiled confidently and bent down to grab the safe’s handle.
He bent over, exposing his chest area.
My gaze, which was in front of me, was suddenly drawn to it.
When I came to my senses, Yeong-ae was holding a rock in her hand. She was so bright, like a weightlifter who had won a gold medal.
‘This… was it an illusion?’
I came to my senses, but the safe had already been opened neatly.
“Wow! There really are gold coins?!”
Youngae Park’s eyes widened and she looked inside the safe.
‘How? Obviously···.’
I tried to think back on the situation, but I was so distracted that I couldn’t remember properly.
‘That’s strange.’
I was a gambler who had been involved in all sorts of dirty tricks. I had seen all sorts of nonsense being played out to manipulate the money, and I fell for such an obvious trick.
‘How strange.’
No matter how beautiful it was, in the end it was just a shell.
I guessed that there was something about Youngae.
It seemed like receiving Mana’s love had a side effect.
Anyway, a promise is a promise.
He nodded as he went into the safe and watched Young-ae smiling and playing with the gold coins.
It was a bit disappointing that the magic sword was missing, but it was clear that Jackson would take care of that.
“You can take it with you while you’re at it.”
“Yes? All of this?”
Yeong-ae asked back with a dumb face.
“Yes, you did.”
“Ha… but isn’t that a large amount?!”
Youngae’s reaction was somehow not pleasant.
“But a promise is a promise, so you can bring it.”
“No! That’s not it! It’s not for me, but it’s a lot of money for you! A lot of money!”
Young-ae, her face flushed, held out a handful of gold coins and showed them to me.
“Now that you’ve opened it, it’s yours, young lady. That’s the rule.”
“···no, I do not want!”
Yeong-ae screamed as if she was throwing a tantrum.
“yes?”
“I don’t need it! Gold coins! I won’t use them anyway!”
‘Then why did you do it?’
Judging by Youngae’s pout, it seemed like she wasn’t happy with the situation that was unfolding.
“I have plenty of gold coins! Instead of gold coins, how about doing me a favor later?”
Yeong-ae immediately made a request.
‘So that was your intention.’
I did the math quickly, snapping my fingers.
In such transactions, the one who shows what he wants first is bound to be at a disadvantage.
If you do well, it seems like you can get through without giving any gold.
“No, I don’t want to. Take the gold.”
“Huh?! Why?! Gold coins are precious! Everyone likes gold coins!”
“Do you know what I am asking for and promise? I would rather have gold coins.”
I even pouted with nerve.
As if I had already won.
However, I couldn’t help feeling anxious.
Because if Youngae got upset and chose Geumhwa right away, I thought she would feel a bit bad.
From the beginning, even if Young-ae had asked, it was clear that it wouldn’t be anything special.
“Ahh! I won’t ask you any strange favors!”
“I don’t even know what the request is, so how do I know if it’s weird or not?”
“Hmm…! But! I haven’t decided what to ask for yet!”
Yeong-ae frowned as if she was in deep thought.
After a while, Youngae looked up at me and clapped her hands so loudly that it made a “clap!” sound.
“Then listen to my request later and if it’s okay with you, then grant it!”
Young-ae Park said stupid things with great confidence and pride.
‘You can listen and refuse… It’s just a request, right?’
“yes.”
I nodded coolly.
“Huh huh···.”
Yeong-ae smiled brightly at my answer and clapped her hands so loudly that it made a clap!
The moment light came out of that hand, I covered my eyes with my forearm.
Even though I covered it with my forearm, I felt the world brightening up.
As soon as I removed my arm, I saw the back of Park Dae-ga-ri Young-ae running away in a hurry.
‘Magic? Who would throw a flash grenade at a bald head…’
It was like giving a firecracker to a reckless child.
***
Time passed without any major problems, to the point where the previous huge commotion felt like a lie.
The wall was steadily rising, and Kanna began to draw a large picture as if the entire wall were a canvas.
The lord also did not expect this, as the sheriff looked at him and let out a sigh before turning away. The lord then came out and watched him for a while before turning away.
I periodically visit Google to search for various things. According to Google, the Imperial Army has entered the East. As long as the Imperial Army has moved, it is certain that the Black Bloods are completely finished.
‘You bad black blood bastards! Live well!’
I was just sitting at the bar drinking beer and watching the patrols.
The man who was guarding Jackson approached.
“He seeks.”
‘···He is a pest.’
I was taken aback by his serious face, but I nodded and followed him.
Jackson’s house was as dirty as before when he arrived, but there was a stranger there.
‘Gray Hood, wand. A wizard?’
Judging by her small size, it was likely a woman.
I habitually took a step closer. It was important not to give distance when dealing with a wizard.
Then the gray hood flinched and took a small step back.
Judging by his knowledge of the streets, he was a wizard used to combat.
“You start by checking the street as soon as you get here. You’re a real loser.”
Jackson said with a smile in his voice.
“I’m a bit shy.”
“Are you trying to remove the cause by covering your face?”
“hmm.”
As I let out a small sigh, Gray Hood hid behind Jackson in surprise.
“This is the person who delivered the ordered magic sword. Open your eyes.”
“A wizard as a delivery man?”
“The magic sword is originally a bit sensitive, but this one is especially dangerous. Don’t frown. It’s the other side that’s taking the burden.”
Jackson gestured behind him.
The wizard hesitated for a moment and then headed towards a long wooden box on the table. As he waved his hand and muttered something, the wooden box opened.
Inside the box was a dark black longsword.
The color was so dark that the light on the sword didn’t even shine through.
‘It’s a demon sword.’
It was black, bulky, and without any special decorations, but it immediately caught my eye.
It was a sword that fit the word ‘demon sword’ perfectly.
I calmed myself down by putting strength into my trembling hands and pretending nothing happened, I took out a gold coin from my pocket.
“It looks more rustic than I thought. Is it worth 20 gold?”
“I’ve already seen your eyebrows go up all over your forehead, so there’s no point in acting.”
Jackson laughed and waved his hands.
I licked my lips and handed over the gold coin.
Jackson gestured for me to take it, or to put it away quickly.
I took the sword out of the wooden box and examined it slowly.
‘Gilgun. Is that a claymore?’
It was about a palm longer than my sword.
To begin with, I was bigger than other medieval dwarves, so this sword fit my hand better than the one I had used before.
‘The taste of the hand that holds it well is the best.’
The grip felt so comfortable that it almost seemed as if it was whispering that this was the sword for me, and the corners of my mouth went up involuntarily. As Jackson said, the price of 20 gold was worth it.
If Jackson had shown me this sword first, I would have given him my entire fortune instead of 20 gold.
“Hmm… You don’t look like a good-looking person, so how about doing it alone in your room?”
Jackson’s words brought me back to my senses.
Jackson shook his head with a disgusted expression.
“hmm.”
I nodded, wiping the saliva from the corner of my mouth.
He took a silver coin out of his pocket and flicked it at the wizard. It was hard enough to sting a little if it hit him.
The wizard raised his wand in surprise.
The silver coin hit something invisible and fell to the floor.
‘The shield speed is fast. I don’t think I have the skills to work as a delivery man.’
The hood that had been covering him lifted slightly and the wizard’s face was revealed. The atmosphere was extremely gloomy, and he looked more like a witch than a wizard.
“What is this···.”
“That’s a tip. A tip.”
I raised both hands as if nothing had happened.
“There’s a guy who tips wizards…. This wizard earns a month’s worth of money….”
Jackson scolded me, but his eyes were fixed on the wizard.
“Ahhh··· Thank you···.”
The wizard expressed his thanks in a suffocated voice and picked up the silver coin that had fallen on the ground.
“So are you leaving right now? Oh, I’m asking because I’m a guard. It’s essential to check for outsiders.”
“Ah …
It was really frustrating to keep adding ‘Ah …
“Ahhh… You shouldn’t keep a sword near you while you sleep… It’s really dangerous….”
As I was leaving the house, a stuffy voice caught my attention.
“Ah, because I bought it for my wife.”
He said it as a joke, but judging from the way he muttered, he seemed to have no sense of humor.
“If you ignore the wizard’s warning, it’s unlikely to end well.”
Jackson said with a stern face.
Unlike the uncivilized medieval people, I did not believe in superstitions.
***
The magic sword ‘Shapers Besen Shafe Belhephore Andier······’ opened its eyes to the body temperature it had not felt in a long time.
The names of the previous owners were attached to them like spoils of war, so the names were too long to mention.
Since the owner he liked the most was a woman named Shafers, Shafers decided to name himself Shafers.
Shafers preferred women as his masters. The men were so quickly defeated that he had no time to savor them properly.
Just as humans eat bread, Shafers ate his master’s dreams. He would enter the dream, show the other person what he was most happy about, and eat what leaked out from there.
It took quite some time for Shafers to realize that it was an emotion.
The feelings were sweet and powerful.
Since Shafers had been locked up for a long time, he was very excited to have a meal after a long time.
Even this week’s owner was a knight.
The article was Shafer’s favorite because it was so easy to make and tasted so good.
Shafers looked down.
A sturdy body with brown skin was visible.
It was the look the other person wanted most.
Shafers walked slowly towards where he was being led.
Corpses piled up indiscriminately like small mountains.
At the top, a man was standing tall and staring somewhere.
Shafers felt something strange when he saw him.
There was no taste in him.
[All the sweetness has gone away. This is perfect timing.]
Shafers turned his head in surprise at the sound of a voice coming from somewhere. There was nothing there.
Shafers turned his gaze back to the man and walked slowly.
Shafers stepped on the strange corpse wearing a crown and climbed up. Various corpses were showing off their various appearances.
Shafers climbed the corpse diligently.
Finally, I came face to face with the man.
Although stained with blood, his face was smooth.
Unlike the outside, which was full of scars, there were no wounds.
A face without scars looked truly fragile.
It was similar to the boy who had accidentally picked himself up during the war.
It was really weak.
“There’s one left.”
The man stared at Shafers.
In an instant, scars spread across the man’s face.
Shafers opened his arms wide without opening his mouth.
So that everything about you is visible.
Showed what the other person wanted.
“Yeah, nice to meet you too.”
I heard a voice that sounded like it was being pressed hard.
The man hugged Shafers tightly.
The emotions that came out of the man were truly intense and had a great flavor. However, before Shafers could taste it, it disappeared somewhere.
The man hugged her really tightly.
So much so that Shafer’s body burst and collapsed.
Shafers couldn’t understand.
Clearly, you are the person that the other person wants the most.
Is that guy going to cut his own throat?
I didn’t understand it at all.
Shafers blinked, as this was his first time doing something like this.
“Phew···.”
The man let out a deep breath, got up, and dusted himself off.
He pushed back his hair, which was disheveled with the blood on his hands, and stared somewhere with his eyes wide open.
Shafers smelled the man’s strong scent.
It was a terrible fear.
The man shuddered once and slapped my cheek. He let out a small scream and slowly walked towards the darkness.
Every step he took was filled with a terrible, savage fear. Even though it was obvious that he would be afraid, the man continued to walk into the darkness without stopping.
As he got closer to the darkness, the man’s size got smaller and smaller…
It disappeared as if consumed by darkness.
[I was a bit sick of it, but thanks to you, it tastes better.]
Shabert shivered slightly at the sound of laughter right next to him.
***
dripping.
I opened my eyes and looked for the sword.
As the sword settled into my hand, my mind quickly calmed down.
‘I told you not to sleep next to each other… You uncivilized bastards.’
It wasn’t much different from usual, just a little bit calmer.
It felt like a similar feeling to saying that if you sleep with the fan on, you’ll die.
I slowly stroked the 20 gold sword, smiled happily, and put it on my back.
As I carried the 20 gold magic sword, my back straightened and my posture automatically corrected. It felt like I was carrying a foreign car on my back. My shoulders naturally tense up.
“It’s a good morning for prayer.”
I woke up Choco, who was sleeping, and headed to the backyard after receiving a greeting from the abbot who looked like an NPC.
It was nice to exercise in the morning since the heat had let up a bit.
“The sword has changed.”
Vermunt sighed softly as he looked at my sword.
“Yeah, isn’t it cool?”
I drew my sword and swung it lightly in the air.
A grip that feels good in your hand.
A feeling like you’re really cutting through the air.
I couldn’t help but exclaim in admiration.
“A sword is nothing more than a tool. What matters is one’s own strength.”
Vermunt pulled out a crude sword and aimed it at me.
However, his gaze was fixed on my sword.
‘Well, Vermunt’s sword is good too.’
Although it looked rough, it was a sword that had not broken even after being through countless battles. It was no ordinary sword.
‘But it’s not in my twenty goals.’
I raised my sword to my right. The sword was large and long, but it was light, similar to the sword I had used before.
I stood him up at an angle and shook him slightly to confuse the distance, then nodded my head.
Vermunt did not refuse and rushed towards me.
‘It’s definitely faster. The movements are smoother too.’
The expression “the day stood still” was appropriate. Vermunt’s rusted blade stood firm as if on a battlefield.
Vermunt stopped slightly outside my street and kicked the ground. The mud crumpled and Vermunt jumped forward.
However, the speed was beyond the expected range.
‘Were you hiding it?’
It didn’t suit Vermunt, who always insisted on straight lines and fair play on the battlefield. Rather, this was…
‘That’s what I was doing.’
I realized it and exclaimed in a small admiration.
Vermunt had taught me in the desert. His methods were more like beatings and bullying than teaching, but I learned something from him.
But it would be enough of a blow to one’s pride to lose to the one he taught, so to learn from him and apply it…
‘···It’s changed.’
It was an action that the brilliant fifth star would never have seen. I don’t know if the imperial water was sweeter than I thought, or if it was bitter that I lost to him…
‘But you’re using that on me.’
I smiled bitterly and swung my sword.
Vermunt was startled and raised his sword at an angle.
It seemed that he had decided that it would be dangerous to come into direct contact with my sword.
It wasn’t a bad decision.
Of course, you will be hit by my subsequent stabs…
‘?’
I was preparing to stab, thinking that I would naturally be hit, but suddenly my sword cut into Vermunt’s sword.
Bam.
A beautifully cut Vermunt sword.
Vermunt narrowed his eyes and looked back and forth between the fallen shard and the half-broken sword in his hand.
‘Hmm… I really like the sword.’
I put the sword back in its sheath and turned my gaze away, pretending nothing had happened.
“My··· my··· my··· sword···.”
Vermunt grabbed the fallen piece with trembling hands and placed it against his sword.
And I blew my breath ‘hoo hoo…’ but there was no way it would stick. When I took my hand off, the piece rolled back onto the floor, and Vermunt, who had been watching him for a while, looked at me with a very complicated expression.
Vermunt opened his mouth as if to say something, then closed it again and opened it again.
“Hmm… It was split exactly in half. How about using this opportunity to learn how to use dual swords? I met a guy who used dual swords before, and he was really annoying.”
“This···this···this···.”
An expression I had never seen before appeared on Vermunt’s face.
I was about to say something to him when I scratched my cheek and pulled out the sword on my waist and handed it to him.
Vermunt stared at me with unfocused eyes.
“This was given to me as a keepsake by a very close friend of mine, but since you are my child, I will give it to you specially. Please continue his legacy.”
“···.”
Vermunt, who received the sword, nodded with a complicated expression.
Vermunt looked down at his shattered sword and couldn’t come to his senses.
I walked over to him and swung my sword in the air.
The sword I used before felt a bit short, but this sword feels like it was made for me and fits my hand perfectly.
It was so much fun to swing it around.
There was a soft swish sound, like air being cut by a sword.
He swung his sword for a while and then put it back.
“···What is your name?”
Vermunt asked, his face still blank, but his focus returning.
“Aaron.”
“···No, not your name. Don’t you know your name? It’s your close friend who gave you this sword.”
Vermunt asked, showing me the sword he had received from me.
“What was it?”
At that, I scratched my head.
“···Didn’t you say we were close knights?”
“Oh, it was James.”
“James? That’s a common name.”
Compared to the sword that Vermunt used, which was good but rusty and in bad condition, the sword I gave him was definitely much better.
Vermunt, who had been muttering for a while, went up first.
After that I used the safe to do some strength training.
Kanna stood next to me with a sleepy face, took out her safe, and followed me.
‘This is a bit···.’
I watched Kanna work hard to open the safe for a moment, then shook my head.
“If you do that, your back will hurt. Straighten your back.”
“···Spread out.”
After a quick morning workout, I washed it down with an ice cold beer.
Hannah said with a slightly arrogant expression that a new bar was opening soon.
It seemed like it ended just before Young-ae’s birthday.
I nodded at the suggestion that I absolutely had to attend the opening ceremony and emptied the rest of my beer into my mouth.
It was time to go to work.
***
As I was changing my boots at headquarters, the weasel arrived late.
The weasel reported on the movements of Skane and the children of District 6.
Since returning from Karzan, the Weasel has been visiting Skane and District 6 every day, claiming that they need to increase their forces to ‘fight the Empire’.
I think I became close with them as I continued to drink with them. I don’t know what they wanted to do with those thugs in the first place, but it wasn’t something I needed to worry about.
Weasel and I headed to the captain’s room.
“Our most trusted captain, Aaron. And Dylan.”
“Yes, hehe. Our captain, the one I respect the most after my older brother.”
The leader frowned as the weasel rubbed his palms together.
The captain warned them to be careful with the inspection as Yeong-ae’s birthday was coming up soon and a VIP might be coming.
“Hmm… Dylan, this kid doesn’t have the face for inspection, and the nobles might get upset. Let’s change him to someone else. Kelo.”
At the captain’s words, the weasel wrinkled his face slightly, then smiled brightly and nodded.
“Since ancient times, a man should have a dignified appearance like a general, dark eyebrows, a little thinning hair, and a saggy belly to look good, right? Hehe.”
“···Hmm.”
The captain waved his hand at the subtle tone of the weasel that followed.
As soon as he came out, the weasel pulled out his dagger and pointed to the captain’s room.
“Brother. Isn’t it time to eat the guards? Just say the word and I’ll take care of that bald pig. You, as the captain of the outer wall guards. I, as your assistant, will be the leader of the 4th company. It’s perfect.”
“···It’s perfect.”
I immediately hit the weasel on the head as it was swinging its dagger into the air, shutting its mouth.
‘Why are you so good at stabbing?’
All of his movements were poorly made, but strangely enough, his dagger thrusting motion was very clean.
He turned the weasel towards the patrol and pulled Kel towards the checkpoint.
I stood guard with Kel.
The number of carriage drivers was greater than yesterday, so the income was good.
At that moment, the carriage driver who was conducting the inspection relayed news from the surrounding castles. As the imperial army moved in, all the impure people in the east disappeared or were burned.
“So there’s only 50 Cooper?”
“Ahem… That’s because you haven’t seen the Byzantine Castle! How horrible it was for the Imperial Army to tie up the living and burn them!! I had no choice but to run away!”
The coachman with the eyebrows stuck together trembled slightly. His acting was so good that I could empathize with him, but…
“But there are so many carts?”
“That… I came out in a hurry! Because I was in a hurry! I packed up everything, both the valuable and the useless, and came out!”
“okay?”
“I’m telling the truth! Look at this! Aaron! Am I a liar?”
“Didn’t you say that you couldn’t bring the money last time because your brother died and you were in a hurry to come? But I heard that you came from a prostitute’s house.”
“I still remember what happened a year ago…”
The coachman shivered and frowned.
“Hey, Kel. You should check the bottom of the cart too. The lord is very sensitive these days.”
“Yes. Are you tearing it?”
“uh.”
“Wait a minute! How am I supposed to carry that around if I take it off! Calm down! Aaron! Here, 50 Coopers!”
“I miscalculated. Last time I only paid 30 Coopers.”
“It was a year ago, and I still remember that amount… This is fucking horrible…”
“Are you tearing it off?”
“You haven’t opened it yet?”
“Thud.”
In response to my question, Kel made a wood-crunching sound with his mouth.
“Ahhh! Got it! Got it! These damn… no, perfect guards! They’re here! They’re here!”
Then the coachman, in a fit of rage, handed over a silver coin.
“When a person tells a lie, his tongue becomes heavy.”
I patted the carriage driver on the shoulder and let him pass.
“Don’t be so discouraged. We have to eat and live, too. Instead, I’ll talk to Rosa and she’ll come back later.”
Kel sneaked up on the carriage driver.
After a long period of inspection, a carriage approached from afar. The seal stuck in the corner was Fenerga’s.
At the very front of the carriage was a knight riding a black horse.
The bastard grabbed the reins as if trying to show something.
Then the horse jumped up and changed its feet in the air.
The horse approached powerfully, stretching out its long legs.
Then, as he approached right in front of me, I could see the horse’s muscles twitching.
‘It must be really expensive.’
As I was thinking that, a knight in black armor on horseback raised his helmet that covered his face.
A cool smile on an unlucky table.
“It’s been a while, my friend.”
A guy who always falls down helplessly.
It was Ben, the ‘not human’ knight of the Fener family.
“Yeah, it’s been a while.”
I greeted him with a smile, following that honest smile.
‘Your arms have gotten a little thicker.’
I habitually checked the guy.
