Soul Land IV (Douluo Dalu) : Ultimate Fighting

"I-I got offered money to help Reim-san's party to hunt the magical beast"

Looks like she finally able to talk to us properly, I leaned against the wall behind me to relax from fatigue today, I am so sleepy now.

"Wait, before you go any further, may I ask you 1 question first? Are you an adventurer? I believe you have to be at least 13 to be an adventurer"

"I-I have to get money…"

I barely can catch what uncle Alto and that girl is talking about with this drowsiness, I try to keep my eyes open and keep in the conversation.

"*sob..*sob I-I don't have family…*sob"

I try to keep my eyes open with my eyelids getting heavier, I shake my head to make sure my consciousness won't fly away, keep it together Erwin!

I don't really understand why, but, I feel like I heard Aura is crying again, I can hear her sobbing again there.

"I-I *sob.. I don't have *sob.. anywhere to *sob.. go.."

Please cheer on, don't be sad like that…..

[ Bruk… ]

"Ugghh.. my head…"

"Oh look, you woke up, how's your feeling?"

I try to open my eyes and look around, this is uncle Alto's house eh, I tried to wake up, but I feel like my body is in sore, I can feel that I don't want to move from this bed so I decided to keep laying on the bed, I see uncle Alto is sitting next to the bed, he looks like he's waiting for something.

"E-excuse me…"

"Oh, wake up Erwin, go eat that food Aura-chan made for you"

Eh? Aura-chan?

I wipe my eyes to make sure I'm not seeing things, the first sight after my room's door open is this girl I save before, I look at uncle Alto and he just shrugs and shook his head while smiling.

No, no, no, that's not the case uncle, why is she here? didn't we were at the tower building yesterday? why are you brought back a girl like this uncle?

I stare at uncle Alto, trying to find the answer why he brought back a little girl home with him, is he actually that kind of person Ilya-nee told me? the person who loves little kid like this?

"Oi Erwin, you think of something rude aren't you?"

I slide my eyeball and look the other way, I'm trying to blow a whistle and change the topic.

"[ Sigh… ] I'm not someone who loves child and wants to kidnap them, I'm still normal you know? and also you can't even blow a whistle and stop your disgust look saying I'm a low scum like that.

Aura-chan, can you please this little brat that I did not kidnap you"

"A-ah…yes, A-Alto-san said I should live here or Erwin-san might keep bugging Alto-san and forcing Alto-san to help me…"

Why is that? Why I have to force uncle Alto to do that? you need to go home or else your family might worry right?

"[ More deep sigh ] Well I know what you are thinking right now Erwin, sit down here Aura-chan"

Uncle Alto tap my bed and tell her to sit there because there was no other chair in this room, so she just place the tray near me for me to eat, Oh it's a warm porridge.

"So listen carefully here Erwin, Aura-chan, can you tell your story to Erwin?"

Aura-chan looked at me and look down, she able to sit closer to me, I guess I don't need to worry about her anxiety anymore.

"I-I lost my childhood memories, and I live in the orphanage after the nun found me and take care of me, I've been living there for 4 years, but now…"

I munch my spoon while listening, and she looks down when telling me the story, I can feel her sadness over her voices, she constantly wipes her eyes.

"I'm sorry, I was living there, but, it got destroyed after got attacked by a lot of magical beasts, everyone helped me to escape, I was able to escape, but everyone else..*sob"

Ah… magical beast again huh, I this is really a big issue in this kingdom I think, uncle Alto was right, I will just whine to uncle Alto and beg him to help Aura-chan.

"I'm sorry to hear that.."

Aura-chan shook her head.

"No, I don't want same fate happens to anyone else, so I encourage myself to hunt magical beasts, I can use some support magic to help adventurers, I need to work for money"

"Now you don't need to do that anymore, you can live here and leave that magical beast matter to the kingdom, just don't worry about that okay? if anything happens, Erwin will save you for sure"

I look at uncle Alto, I haven't moved my lips but he seems to know already what am I thinking, I'm glad uncle Alto is so kind, but uncle, please be at least a little cooler and say you will save her instead of putting me for this duty.

I just hopelessly glare at him and let out a deep sigh, this issue the kingdom has really needed to be solved soon so no one will suffer anymore.
