There a war.
When did it happen? Who was the opponent?
She has not heard about that.
She was only told what happened just how it was.
Rorona's grandfather was a carrier soldier of equipment and army provisions.
They brought with them a magic bag full of weapons and rations and ran through the forest with just six elites.
The frontlines were doubtful, and it is a situation that would change in 180 degrees whether or not the supplies reaches or not.
But, however, it must be because of that.
They were in a distress situation where their transport was surrounded by the cautious enemy.
There are 60 of them.
Thinking about it normally, it was nothing that can be done.
Rorona's grandfatherーー.
He ran away.
He threw away the magic bag that is full of rations and ran away.
Magic bags are extremely valuable.
On top of its materials being very rare, a delicate craftsmanship is necessary as well.
It would take a month to make one bag even skilled craftsmen and adventurers were gathered.
When it comes to a coward running away and a magic bag, anyone will pick up the magic bag.
He throws it away then ran away because of that.
The remaining five did not run away.
All of them drew their swords and charged head-on.
They opened a bloody path through their enemies and broke through their encircling net.
They entrusted the bag to their comrade and collapsed, and entrusted the bag to their comrade and collapsed.
And, there was only one who reached the front lines.
And even that remaining one, he entrusted the bags to his comrade and died.
Thanks to their sacrifice, the war was won.
The five elves were treated as heroes.
And following those heroes being praised as heroes, Rorona's grandfather was slandered.
Why did her grandfather run away? The reason for that, it was simple.
He had a wife.
He had a child as well.
And it was a child who was just born as well.
He thought that he did not want to die before he sees his child's face.
If it was before he knew that he had a child, there was no doubt that he held his sword and slashed through the encirclement with them.
He was a courageous warrior until the day of that fight.
However, Rorona's grandfather's such circumstances were not taken into consideration.
It was because the other heroes who cut through a bloody path had the same circumstances with Rorona's grandfather.
The existence of the brave heroes did not leave Rorona's grandfather who is just a human.
The disdain and persecution also extended to her grandfather's son.
It was forbidden under the rule.
Even when talking about the story of the heroes, it was directed so that the "sixth one that ran away" did not exist in the first place.
However, malice permeates.
They received casual harassments where the culprit cannot be specified.
Furthermore, Rorona's grandfather collapsed just when she was born.
Rorona's father died early, and her mother threw her and ran away.
The daughter that was born who was not even named, but sold to a certain rich noble.
Her mother's appearance is completely that of an elf.
If she lies and says that she is still a virgin, there are countless nobles would take her as a wife.
However, that was also throwing away one's pride.
A grandfather that left his comrades and ran away, and a mother that threw away her daughter.
A girl who has the blood of them, who in the world will she abandon?
The girl who had circumstances that must be pitied became the target of contempt.
She was given the name "Nagu" that means "No Name" for convenience.
But although it was like that, adults are adults.
There were only a few of them that discriminates.
However, it is different for children.
Who knows when, but her circumstances were found out by the children, and those children blatantly discriminated" Nagu" with their cruel innocence.
They threw her mud as a "game as children" and let her eat fresh grass.
There was also a time when her face was suddenly covered by a bag and was thrown deep within the forest.
It is a "pretend play" of leaving one's comrade behind.
But going this far, the bullies were scolded.
However, Nagu was not completely treated as a victim as well.
They treated it like it brought all of it on herself.
It does not matter whether they did a bad thing or not; she was slandered without a clear cause.
"Nagu"'s heart was being killed with each day that passed.
But regardless of that, she was hungry.
She received support from the village as a rule until she was 6 years old.
When she reached 7 years old, she entered the forest and swung her sword.
"Nagu" was a genius swordsman.
She was able to hunt for beasts and fruits just enough for her to eat.
But even so, her loneliness did not disappear.
She spent her days alone in a small hut at the corner of the village.
There was deep loneliness there.
It was the two, Lalana and Lilina, who picked her up.
The two of them who came to the village from the town because it was their 17th birthday looked at the village's children.
"FUOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
It super smells that a great weapon will be made here. UOOOOO!!"
Lalana who got excited then said to Lilina.
"I'll go and look at the workshop! I'll leave the details to you!"
"I only need to, let many kids swing the weapons you made right?"
"That's right!!"
Immediately after saying that, Lalana rushed to the workshop.
The two are the so-called "higher-ups".
It was equivalent to have their futures promised if they were to be fancied.
All kinds of materials were gathered to Lalana.
All kinds of people gathered to Lilina.
Especially the parents of the children, they fervently introduced their children to Lilina.
And there, Lilina met "Nagu".
Lilina who has an appraiser's talent felt "Nagu"'s genius in an instant.
On top of that, after hearing "Nagu"'s circumstances, she felt closer to her.
Lilina is the granddaughter of the hero who opened a path end delivered the supplies to their allies.
That is why, she was adored and praised by people. However, she was "empty" just like "Nagu".
She was called amazing for being the hero's grandchild, and told as expected for being the hero's grandchild.
Praise and persecution.
Although the vector is different, it was the same for being empty.
Lilina made "Nagu" her little sister, and gave her the name Rorona.
And from then on, loneliness disappeared from Rorona's world.
Lilina who is the grandchild of the hero and has a great merchant's talent, and Lalana who was not concerned who it is as long as the potential of the weapons she made would be brought out.
Rorona was able to gain her place within the Dwalves because the two treated her well.
However, that made a different wound towards Rorona.
The reason why she was being loved was because of her talent.
It is because she saved other people even if it meant to injure herself.
If that did not exist?
If that ceases to exist?
What appeared in Rorona's mind was herself being alone inside a house.
Nights of trembling alone in a house full of holes.
Fear was born because her sadness disappeared.
She was thankful.
She also thinks that Lilina's plan was for the best.
Thanks to Lilina, she was able to get more than a hundred companions recognizing her.
However, what Rorona needed was not the best way.
It was alright even it is wrong. It is alright even if it depends on others.
A person who would embrace her even a hundred companions throws her stones.
A person who would give me unconditional love, even throwing away reason, logic, rationality or whatever there is.
I want such a person.
I am asking for, such love.
However, that is just a selfish thing.
I know that it is crazy.
That is why, she was not able to show it, and only the sadness piled up.
Nights, where she would cry for no reason, comes once a week.
I need to be of someone's use.
I need to be of someone's use.
If not, then no one will love me.
If not, I will be unable to live.
The disciplined rightness continued to make Rorona suffer.
She wished to be loved the most, but she was afraid to ask for love.
She was only able to prove her worth, by being of someone's help.
