[Episode 25]
Three days have passed since Richard handed over the fragment.
Now, fortunately, there was no such thing as a handprint.
However, if you ask me if I can go back and forth between human and human painting whenever I want, that is not the case again.
‘There is no place to learn this.’
Normally, I would learn from my parents, but unfortunately I was an orphan who didn’t even know my parents.
“Ugh, are you here again…?”
“I feel bad…”
“Did you see his tail? It’s disgusting…”
“Richard, why is he so strange…”
“Is he strange for a day or two?”
“But didn’t I say that beastmen are inferior to humans? I picked it up on the road before. Prisoners without masters or parents are like slaves.”
Even if it stabs a painful place, it stabs well. I pretended not to hear what the children were saying and received the food.
‘Richard is late today.’
Since he said he was going for hard training, he might be doing one-on-one training with Albion.
“Hey, where did you come from?”
I glanced at the child coming up next to me. Judging by his large size, he looked ten years old.
“I don’t know?”
“Is your master Richard?”
I chewed my food and smiled at the boy.
“Ugh… ooh don’t laugh! I, this human being, ask!”
Perhaps embarrassed that I wasn’t frightened, the boy shouted with his face red.
“Yeah, but should I answer?”
“Of course not! I am a human and you are a beast!”
I tilted my head, chewing on the meat I hadn’t eaten in a while.
‘Even now, adults and children like this don’t change even if the times change and the world changes.’
The only thing that changed was the person’s appearance.
“Ash, I am Saramiya. Not a beast.”
“With that monstrous tail… What’s the difference between you and Richard?”
My appetite plummeted.
I put the fork down as if tossing it lightly.
“Do it right.”
“what?”
“Me and Richard are straight, and Richard is said to be the same loner.”
I couldn’t make a lonely kid more alone here.
‘If you do something wrong, your life will disappear without a rumor.’
I wondered if it would be good to say something about what a great idiot Richard will become in the future, so I got up and a small hand landed on my head from behind.
“You spoke well, BamBam.”
My eyes widened at the touch from behind.
“Richard…?”
“Yes, my BamBam.”
I wish I could say something about that bastard’s BamBam.
“Hey, that’s fat… no. I decided not to use that word.”
Richard muttered softly, but soon covered his mouth with a slap in the mouth.
“Hey, you fucking gorilla.”
Is it a fight between a pig and a gorilla?
“If you touch my BamBam one more time, you will die. I know next time I’ll end up in the trash forever.”
Richard quickly grabbed my hand and pulled me. The boy’s fingertips trembled slightly.
“Are you not hurt?”
I nodded slowly. It was just a battle of words, so of course there were no injuries.
Richard strode back into the room with his mouth shut.
Then, standing face to face with me, he looked around my body and hugged me tightly.
“…don’t get hurt.”
How long has it been since someone cared about me like this? Without realizing it, I let out an answer with a sigh.
“huh.”
“Don’t even leave my side. you are like my family So stay by my side.”
“My wife, you didn’t come and I was just trying to make a meal.”
“I’ll come sooner next time. Today, the damn director rolled and rolled me for doing things I couldn’t do before…”
Listening to the growling voice, looking at Richard, he was definitely twitching here and there.
It’s like it’s not like I rolled once or twice on the dirt.
Still, seeing that he didn’t have a single wound in the middle of it, he seemed to know how good Albion was.
‘Albion does have a strict temper…’
Never again, so that the children don’t die because I can’t protect my life.
Albion had been wandering around the empire at night in a shabby country town with such a wish, taking care of a child who had lost his or her parents.
‘Come to think of it, the day will soon come when Albion leaves for the capital…’
At that time, Albion also develops a relationship with the heroine.
He also served as a temporary escort knight for incidents in the capital.
Then, later, the heroine comes to the point where she supports the time orphanage for sprouts…
‘This is where Richard meets the heroine for the first time.’
Hey, because I think like this, everyone who comes out has a relationship with the female lead at least once.
It’s just envy.
How does it feel to have the whole world in a life where you just have to walk on well-laid rails?
‘uh…? capital…?’
If Albion goes to the capital, shouldn’t I and Richard follow?
It wouldn’t be difficult to spread the news to the Colin family if you only went to the capital.
The bank is also the largest in the capital, and above all… Erno Etam will be there.
I have to go return the fragments.
‘Oh perfect…?’
I slapped my fist on the palm of my left hand and opened my eyes.
“BamBam?”
Richard, who had been holding me from behind for a long time, slowly pulled away.
“Let’s go on a trip!”
“travel? Where?”
“capital!”
“I’m fine too, but the director won’t allow it.”
“Ganchana secretly go. Unjang-nim and worth!”
“…with the director?”
“huh!”
Richard smiled and nodded.
“Okay then.”
I knew for sure that it wouldn’t work anyway, but there was a strong sign that he would match the rhythm. It will become true soon though.
‘Richard, let’s not be crazy idiots, but become great idiots.’
It won’t change that it’s a ttorai, but that’s it.
Richard seated me on the desk chair and busily started unfolding the futon.
They were two blankets that he had obtained by going a long way from the director.
Albion wanted to keep me in the room where the girls stayed, but the situation was special, similar to Richard’s time, so I eventually acquiesced.
“BamBam, come here.”
Richard smiled brightly and opened his arms to me. It was a truly heart-wrenching look.
As I got off the chair and approached the blanket, the boy laid me down and pulled the thick blanket up to my neck.
“Isn’t the tail uncomfortable?”
“yes.”
The tail was easier to control than I thought. When I sat down, there was nothing to exhale.
“I’m glad I met you.”
“….”
“You are the greatest fortune I have ever met in my life.”
The boy smiled brightly and held hands between the gaps in the blanket.
[Ah, you’re in the same class as him? I really don’t have any luck, it’s the worst…]
[Hey, I’m a partner with him, right? I’m really pissed off.]
[Hey, I’m disgusted and terrified that someone dirty like you is my older sister, do you know?] [I
didn’t give birth to you…. Making you and giving birth to you is the biggest failure of my life!]
Suddenly, nothing more comes to mind. I slowly closed my eyes at the old memories that couldn’t even scratch me and the warmth of my hands.
“Good night Erin.”
At the end of the muffled voice, my mind sank deeply.
* * *
“…My BamBam is surprisingly bold.”
Richard, who hid with me under the coachman’s chair, spoke to me.
Early this morning, Albion introduced a new teacher, saying that he would be away for a while.
A wagon had been waiting in front of the orphanage since early morning, so it was clear that today was the day Albion was leaving.
And I immediately dragged Richard along and hid under the coachman’s seat while the coachman went to the bathroom for a while.
It was supposed to show up halfway through.
‘The reason I went to Albion this time was because of the underground auction.’
I remember that the biggest auction in the empire was where people bought and sold.
Slavery had disappeared on the surface, but as the vices of war still prevailed, underground people overflowed with people who enjoyed such despicable acts.
‘And there… I meet the heroine.’
Oh, why is there a female protagonist here… It’s because she was kidnapped while out shopping for a while.
The guys who kidnapped the cute and pretty heroine were criminals who were searching for items to sell at an underground
auction .
It seems to be moving for
‘By now, the heroine must have become friends with all the people in the mansion.’
I’m sure you’ll be loved by everyone.
How great would it be if I could be like the heroine?
“Let’s leave.”
While delusional, he heard Albion’s voice.
Richard and I hurriedly shut each other’s mouths, then widened our eyes.
“Yes, let’s go!”
The coachman sat down in a chair.
Richard was right in front of his nose, barely breathing.
The boy turned his head away with a flushed face, and his eyes were fixed on the heel of the man’s shoe.
Knock-
before long, the carriage started…
and I tasted hell.
