Two little children who attacked Si-hyeon and his group without fear.

Even though they were starving, they had never done anything like this,

-sister… I’m so hungry… .

‘Lala. wait. We must… .’

The youngest of the three sisters, who lost both their mothers and fathers during the war and became orphans, was on the verge of starvation.

They had no choice but to commit the crime of attacking foreigners.

For the one and only family who can be trusted and relied on in the harsh kingdom of Montpellier after the invasion of the devil’s army.

‘The outside of the castle wall is full of monsters, but they got through it, right? I’m sure you’re so exhausted that you can’t even lift a finger… !’

‘How dare you bribe the guard lady and go straight to the inn?’

Of course, the sisters did not do this without thinking.

Unlike the inside of the city, which is protected by walls and garrisons, the outside is a magical landscape overflowing with monsters.

It was natural for them to judge that those who had come through such a place were exhausted.

The two even guessed that the reason Elizabeth had picked up a gold coin to get through the inspection quickly was because she was so tired that she wanted to rest quickly even after all the expenses.

Therefore, the two sisters immediately decided to attack those travelers.

​

If they tried to steal valuables, a real battle might break out, so they planned to loot whatever food was left after eating.

“Flowing, shaking. Are you scared?”

“That can’t be… !! My Lala, my body trembles with joy when I think about eating my fill for the first time in a long time!!”

“Yeah, right. Let’s go!!!”

Since I didn’t have any equipment for weapons, I made a weapon by wrapping an old cloth around a sharp piece of broken glass.

For some reason, the two of them forced their legs, which were unwilling to separate, to move and run out.

Towards Sihyeon and his group heading to the inn.

-Tap!!

“Well, well, give me everything to eat… Let go… … .”

“Tsk.”

“… … Hi!!”

However, when they actually stood in front of Si-hyeon and her group, they were soon overcome with tremendous fear.

because,

“I was afraid that the angel would be surprised, so I tried to scare him a little and watch him, but he ended up doing something wrong.”

-Gooo.

‘W-What are those eyes…? !!!’

Because Arthur had already noticed their clumsy ambush.

Arthur sensed life coming from well over 100 meters away and was spreading a subtle sense of intimidation with the meaning of ‘If you disturb my time with the angel, I will kill you.’

However, the two sisters suppressed their fear and forced themselves to stand in front of him…

As a result, he faced the enormous power of the Kingdom’s First Sword head-on.

‘I’m going to die, I’m going to die…’ … !!!’

‘What on earth are we going to do to such strong people? … .’

-A little.

There is no way that these malnourished women could overcome the pressure of the legendary knight who protected the kingdom for nearly 10 years on the front lines.

The two of them forgot about caring for their younger brother and fell into such extreme fear that they even had to urinate.

-Clink.

“Ugh, ah… .”

They even lost the piece of glass they had grabbed with all their might to threaten.

Among them, Elizabeth and Lucia naturally stood on either side of Sihyeon.

“There really are people like this. Maybe it’s because I’ve only seen Savior, but it’s a little strange.”

“Because humans are all different. By the way, there were highway robbers in the evening, so you should know the security here.”

Then, the two look at the two sisters frozen in fear with cold eyes.

Arthur also cracked his neck and took a step forward.

“Your Highness Elizabeth. Lucia. Take the angel to the inn first. I will hand them over to the security guard.”

“Hee, hee… … .”

‘Guards, are…’ … .’

However, no matter how much he was threatened with robbery and murder, Arthur had no intention of seeing blood in front of Sihyeon.

She first thought of what she thought was the most moderate and reasonable solution: taking over the criminal guard.

… If that happens, the two sisters will be summarily exiled. This was done without knowing that it was a de facto death penalty for an ordinary person with no force.

‘Oh, we were just trying to get some leftover food… … !!’

‘Lara, I’m sorry… !!!’

Unlike Arthur, who does not know the circumstances of the Kingdom of Montpellier, the two sisters know very well what it means to hand them over to the guards.

The regret that they could not let out turned into cold tears and flowed down their cheeks.

“Tsk. When you think you are the weak, you are so energetic, but when you meet the strong, you cry?”

“Savior. Let’s go quickly and stop looking at that ugly thing.”

Of course, that’s just their situation.

The warrior’s group just gave those tears a cold look.

‘Ugh. It reminds me of the old days. ‘I cried like that when I went to juvenile detention center.’

“Wait a minute. Arthur.”

“… Angel?”

“Can you leave them to me?”

—of course. Although he denied it himself, Sihyeon, who was already half an angel, was an exception.

* * * * * *

They attacked us with such force that the two girls broke down and cried as soon as Arthur glanced at them.

Although the other party members didn’t seem to sympathize with him…

‘Even if you look at him, he looks clumsy, so he’s a first-time offender. Looking at it, does it look like it’s because it’s really hungry? It would be so pitiful if you took that and handed it over to the security guard. cancer.’

As a TRPG junkie, I immediately noticed the sad situation inside.

Thin cheeks. An awkward posture, as if you were holding a weapon for the first time in your life. Hesitant behavior. A freshness that cannot be expressed if you have committed a crime even once.

By all accounts, they were newbies who were on the verge of turning to crime for a living.

… If I had already been an experienced worker (?) who had already been through several rounds, I would have handed him over to the security forces without mercy, but it seems obvious that I had no choice but to do it just once. Moreover, it ended in an attempt.

I’m not so merciless as to hand over those crying children to the security guard.

‘More than anything… ‘Because it reminds me of the old days.’

And, the way I cried sadly without even being able to say anything was a reflection of my past self.

I decided to forgive them once.

“Arthur. Can you leave them to me?”

“… Warrior. No matter how good you are. You shouldn’t even do that to the kids who tried to attack you.”

“That’s right, angel. If you make a mistake, you should be punished accordingly… .”

My companions made noises as if they could not understand my actions.

however,

“Why not, Arthur? Elizabeth? Lucia?”

“Big, big. As if my heart would explode again… !!!”

“… That’s a foul. Warrior. okay. Do whatever you want.”

“… … I will unconditionally follow the will of the Savior.”

When I looked back and smiled slightly, my companions nodded as if they had never done that before.

… There was a minor incident where Arthur had another hyperventilation attack, but whatever.

“Thank you. then… That little guy over there, hiding here and watching? Would you like to come out here?”

“… … … !!!!!?”

I guess I got permission, and I gently gestured toward one side.

To the skinny girl who had been sticking her head out from the entrance to the alley earlier.

“La, lala!!!? Why did you come!!!”

“Don’t worry about us, just run away!!! Hurry!!!!”

‘I thought his eyes were unusual, as expected. Looks like this is their younger brother. Are they the three sisters?’

The two must have escaped their fear by taking advantage of Arthur’s hyperventilation, and screamed as loud as they could towards the child.

His voice was full of urgency, as if he thought I was going to eat him.

Really. In fact, it’s quite the opposite.

‘Inventory.’

-Teook.

While the skinny little girl was wondering whether to go save her sisters or run away, I took something out of my inventory.

Then the eyes of the little girl hiding in the distance widened.

It was a natural reaction. Because what I just brought up…

“… Warrior? What is that again?”

“I thought I’d make something the kids like.”

– Whirling.

It’s a combination of rice cakes and wursts that kids can’t hate. Because they were sotteok sotteok skewers.

One of the street foods that Korea is proud of. The representative of my child’s drinking snack and my father’s nutritious snack. Sotteok sotteok.

… I put it on a skewer in advance to give it to my companions as a snack, but I had no idea I would end up using it here.

anyway. I held up a skewer of sotteok and started to gently tease the child, who was starting to drool from afar.

“Are you hungry? Would you like me to bake this for you?”

-Silang, softly. Look around, look around.

Every time I hold my special skewer and shake it gently, this little boy moves his eyes as if he is hypnotized.

Even the children who were crying earlier and the gazes of my companions were all focused on my skewer.

The look in his eyes showed that he wanted to put the skewer in his mouth right away and gorge on it.

‘… I haven’t even put the sauce on it yet, but I never thought I’d get this kind of reaction already. Of course, K-Street Food!’

anyway. The children who had been shedding tears were now starting to drool.

I held the skewer and walked slowly.

Waving seductively, as if seducing women.

“It’s so dusty here, so I’ll just go to the square and feed them.”

-Sneaky, sneaky.

“It’s white and soft, juicy and delicious~.”

When I tempted them to come eat skewers, the three sisters, who had the saddest faces in the world, followed me, gulping their saliva as if in a daze.

“The hero’s skewer… .”

“Angel’s, it looks so delicious… … .”

“Savior’s big and thick… … .”

The temptation worked so well that even Elizabeth and the others followed in fascination.

I was happy to see a change in the serious atmosphere just a moment ago, so I raised my voice even more softly and led them.

To a place where everyone can see my skewers, to the square right in front of the inn where we will be staying.

‘Now that I think about it, I feel like it sounds a little strange when I say skewer… Hey, it must be my mood. ‘Who would have strange imaginations when they see sotteok sotteok skewers?’

I felt a little suspicious, but I thought it was just my mood and ignored it.

“Yo, hero!!!!? You have wings on your back… … !!!”

“Aww, the angel is a real angel… … !!!!”

‘… … ruined!!!!!!’

———When I realized that that anxiety was actually an instinctive warning, it was already too late.
