"Where the hell is this place?"

I looked around with blurry eyes.

A little while ago, it was in the neat corner of the capital, but now lighthouses and sailing ships were seen around. It was a maddening experience.

"It's a TRATAN. It's a port city."

Vinter replied kindly to my self-saying words. "A port city? Not near the capital?"

"It's the front line of the eastern Empire.

I couldn't quite understand, so I asked again. "Why do we have to come so far?"

"Because the damage caused by the war here is the most severe, I'm focusing on it." 'So why are you doing it with me when you're with me, you bastard!'

I've got words that fill my throat. Toughly swallowed.

"OhI see."

First of all, this was not the fault of Vinter. The system ordered it. I followed him with so much solace.

We climbed the bank and walked toward a village far away.

The village, which was getting closer and closer, looked devastated at a glance. Half-cracked buildings and roads.

No one wandering around in the midst of a busy time of fishing. The village was like an abandoned place.

It was a little scary to see that it was so different from the fancy capital. Behind the end of the war was hard, a scary and horrible life.

'Well, no matter how powerful a country is, it can't be fine.'

but what I'm scared about is the fact that this whole thing is too realistic. Normal mode is the dream of a poor woman.

I was only shown the capital city life full of hope. These details were not described.

Why did the background of the episode in hard mode so gloomy? 'ha"

It was when I was looking around, swallowing a deep sigh. "You're the noble lady who came back then, right?"

"The lion who stood by me quietly and walked, suddenly whispered.

I opened my eyes in amazement, then watched the boy walking ahead and killed my voice. "How did you know?"

"Speech and voice. I remembered." "You are quite sharp, are you?" "Hehe."

The child laughed at my compliment, gleaming. A smile I couldn't make at that time

I said with a wide mouth.

"Thank you for back then. I'm still alive thanks to you." Really.

If the lion's mask didn't come out and back me up, before the cane shot by Winter, I would have died of a slump in favor.

When I say thank you, the lion eyes were bent to the fullest, and his eyes were sullen. "I got in big trouble with my teacher after aunty left.

"Aunty. Do you see me as an old lady?"

I was angry at the prettily decorated title. "Then what do I call you?"

"Call me Penelope. It's my name."

"I'm Raon. I named it after a lion. I like lions the most among animals." "Yes, Raon."

I nodded and satisfied Back to the original topic.

"Why were you scolded? Is it because you take me in?"

"Yes, but they complimented me on my discovery. Thanks to Mrs. Penelope!" "Good for you."

Perhaps because he was still young, the conversation ramble. Still, I smiled calmly listening to the child.

".....and since then, my teacher...were very upset. " "Why?"

"He lost faith by pointing his cane at the person who helped me. "

I looked at the back of the empty space where I had been walking first with fresh eyes. I could see a purple favorability gauge bar floating above his head.

'Is it guilt then?'

Raon whispered again as he tilted his head.

"On the day Miss Penelope came back and then he was happy. "Really?"

"As soon as Penelope got there, he planned where to start volunteering!" I frowned at the words added.

After all, I had no intention of dating him.

'Come to think of it, you almost did volunteer work when you were in normal mode.' Except for meeting at the ball.

The service was in contact with the hostess.

It was when I was staring at his back of the head with distraught eyes. Before we knew it, we were walking up the hill and reaching the village.

At the entrance of the village, the shabby-looking lynolds raised their eyes wide at the sight of his wife, who appeared while playing.

'A noble lady in a dress and two masked men, that's worth seeing.' I smiled a self-contradictory smile at our reflection.

Vinter moved into a quiet place where there were no people.

When he reached the vacant lot on one side of the village, he stopped walking. And he took a black pocket out of his arms.

"Raon, check if there are people around us."

The lion's mask said, "Turatakan," calling out the strange spell. It was like magic to check a man's presence.

"None."

When Raon replied,

As if it had been confirmed, Vinter immediately took action. He untied the knot in his pocket and took something small out of it and threw it into the bar.

kuungg-

there's something fell on the floor. suddenly turned into a huge table "what"

I stared at it with my eyes wide open.

He then took out something short from his pocket one after another.

After a while, a huge awning screen, several simple chairs and tables, and a large tin can containing soup, a basket of bread, and a bowl of salad were listed on the table in turn.

In an instant, a temporary restaurant-like wetland was formed in the vacant lot. "It's a magic shrinkage."

Vinter looked back at me in astonishment and replied awkwardly. At that time, the sea breeze with a fishy scent blew once.

Dangling, dangling-- A clear bell rang out.

As I turned my head along the sound, the bell hung at the end of the tent was swaying in the wind. "Now people are coming. "

Raon approached me and told me nicely.

Indeed, some time later, the people who heard the bell crept in. It was all a ragged streak. "I'll give them the soup, and will you give some bread?"

Vinter encouraged me.

It wasn't difficult, so I went to the back of the bread basket, nodding my head. Soon the food distribution began.

"Thank you, thank you. "

The people bowed their heads to the Vinter as they took the food. As time passed, more and more people gathered.

Then I suddenly thought it was strange.

Most of the people who came for free food were young children. It wasn't adults, but the number of children was overwhelming.

I took advantage of the diminishing number of people for a moment and asked the Vinter aloud. "Why are the majority of the children coming for food?"

He looked back at me with a little surprise, but soon gave me an answer. "They're war orphans by bombing. I lost my parents overnight. "

"...."

"Nice families don't come for free meals. As a disgrace to the British Empire." I understood why Vince was so far away from the front line.

He was particularly weak with young children.

It reminds me of a long time ago when I was complaining about why I came so far. My heart grew a little solemn.

"...yes. "

I answered quietly, and then I devoted myself to giving out the bread silently. Fortunately, there was plenty of food.

When it was almost ran out, the Vinter quietly went behind the tent and took out new food.

It was when the busy surroundings became somewhat quiet that something a little absurd happened. A black-haired child, who did not go even after eating his share of the food, stood in line again.

"Was he hungry?"

But the child disappeared without eating, and soon after, he came again and lined up again.

The masked mortuary must have been scary, ignoring Raon and taking the bread straight from me. It wasn't just him. on and over again.

I saw some kids picking up bread pretending it was their first time.

When I gave out the bread without saying anything, the line became bolder . "If you give it to them like that, I'm afraid it's never end."

Fifth, when I was about to give bread to the black hair. Vinter blocked me.

"Hyuk!"

He didn't even say anything to me, but the child got scared and ran away quickly. Looking at the child's distant back, I soon turned my head toward the Vinter.

"Didn't you prepare enough?"

"Of course I prepared enough food to spare. But it's not always enough, Lady" He explained it softly as if he taught me.

"Children who are fed several times are probably hiding it at home and coming back for it. Or, you're paying the orphans."

"I know that much." I retorted coyly.

"You know, but you didn't care?"

It turned the dark blue eyes to embarrassment.

I felt that I gave me bread even though I knew he was being playful.

"Will you feel like an immature young lady for the first time in volunteer work?" I opened my mouth, upsetting the mind of Vinter looking at me.

"How about you, then?" ""

"I would have starved to death today, watching if there was no piece of bread on the street until you came here."

Thinking of a distant past, He laughed bitterly.

"Can't you just let a few of them pile up? Anyway, they going to save it for a few days and starve." I could see the blue pupil slowly bulging large.

like a man who never expected me to say this run sound. "Someone I know. "

After a moment's sweet lip, he replied,

"You told me to grab those kids and eat as much as they want."
