125 – Genius of the Southern Town (2)
I happened to find a child and received a bounty.
The bounty money was n-breaded and distributed to the priests who served.
Is it because money came from an unexpected part?
The morale of the attendant priests has definitely increased, and the atmosphere seems to have changed slightly.
I guess it’s natural since I’m old enough to spend a lot of money.
I have to take good care of myself from now on.
Looking at the priests who were happy with that thought, I saw one person smiling bitterly.
She was Cain, who had just become a new priest.
“What’s wrong?”
It’s okay to simply like him, but he’s smiling bitterly… What should I say?
I’m worried about what’s going on.
From the expression on the child’s face, it didn’t look like he was happy to receive the extra allowance.
“Oh…Nothing.”
“Hmm… Really?”
“…..Ugh…”
Cain kept her mouth shut and bowed her head.
Teria, who was next to her, stroked her hair to see if she was worried about Cain.
As expected, the age difference is only 3 years, so Etheria seems to be comfortable.
Her face turned red and she began to react differently than before.
“Right. You said Cain had two sisters, right?”
“Yes, she has younger sisters who are 7 and 5 years old.”
“Go to the place where your brothers are today and bring them home.”
“Huh?!”
Do you think that asking me to bring you home has some other meaning?
Looking at the simple surprise, I don’t think that’s the case…
“You have a room, right? You can live there with your younger siblings.”
“That… It can’t be that…! Even if they are my younger siblings, they are at the residence of the saintess Yeha and her consort Mama…!”
“It’s okay because the saintess gave permission for this. And the knight commander also gave permission.”
The identity of Cain and her past have already been grasped. She
She’s not a spy or anything like that.
She was just a poor child who grew up in an orphanage, escaped and wandered around with her sisters, and became a priest.
In addition, the place where the younger siblings live now is a lot poorer than I thought.
She lived in a hut that couldn’t even be called a home. How painful it must be for Cain to have his younger sisters in such an environment.
It seems she tried to get a house with the money she gave me, but
It’s something she can collect and use when she becomes an adult or when her younger sisters become independent.
“Okay? Bring me.”
“…Thank you, Mrs. Ma.”
“Thank you. A little boy like you can lean on your older brothers and sisters.”
“Can I look forward to it too?”
“Go away. You’re older than me.”
I pushed Dave away with a smirk.
Seeing that scene, Eri-san laughed out loud.
You can’t even take care of me…
Dave I shouldn’t have taken care of this guy, I should have given all of Dave’s share to Mr. Eri.
“Hey, what are you… Thinking…?”
“A thought you don’t need to know~”
“Ah… No matter how married you are, the salary is different… You know?”
“Well, what do you think, Mr. Eri?”
Mr. Eri didn’t say anything and she just laughed.
She probably wants to keep an eye on Dave’s heart-wrenching heart.

Following the call of the priests, she went to the front door and saw two cute children holding Cain’s hand in both her hands.
The same hair and eye color as my brother…
On top of that, the faces of the two people are very similar.
From anyone’s point of view, she was the younger sister.
“Ah…Hello.”
“Hello…”
On that day, after finishing all her work, Cain brought her younger sisters.
Judging from the fact that she is wearing clean clothes, she seems to have bought her younger siblings’ clothes with the money she received.
“You look a lot like your brother?
From noble mtl dot com.
Plus, she seems to be educated to some extent, as she greets you very politely.
I don’t think she learned anything from her brother…
“Are you comfortable in your room? It’s a spacious place with a bathroom, so it’s a good place to stay.”
“Yes!”
“Thank you…”
The child who appeared to be her older sister replied with a bright smile, while the child who appeared to be her younger sister held her older sister’s hand and bowed her respectfully as she greeted her.
It seems that the children have grown up earlier than expected.
It would be best for a child to be a child…
I was too young to do that, and I knew the feeling of becoming an adult, so it was just bittersweet.
“Cain take her little brothers and explain things to her. Can you?”
“Yes! My father-in-law!”
Come to think of it, she seemed to have changed a little from Cain since yesterday.
When she first came, she felt like a timid and abandoned stray cat, but now she feels like a proud salesperson?
She seems to joke around with Dave often, and maybe it’s because Eri and Etheria are cute for her.
She seems to have changed her mood.
Her sisters followed Cain to the stairs. She
She said she could take the elevator, but she said she wouldn’t take it now.
It’s fun because it’s like a child, but I hope you don’t overdo it.
“Hey Dave, you walk too.”
“What the hell did I do…”
I started to feel discouraged with a face as if I was watching the world perish at any moment.
Was it such a sad thing to say not to use the elevator?
Sometimes you said you could get around without an elevator like this.
“You really don’t think you did anything wrong, do you?”
“Awesome…”
Dave doesn’t say anything and just chews on his lips.
I am very happy that I was able to feed him once in a while.

“By the way…”
Should I say it’s lively because there are so many people…
I did mean it, but I guess it’s a strange feeling because there are only a lot of women…
It’s a bit sad to see the maids, priests, priests… And the knights having fun having a conversation, because it’s hard to interfere.
Every time I do that, I have many conversations with Dave or Cain…
“Where should the boys go to play?”
“Where?”
Dave asked, yawning.
Cain is looking at me with her eyes shining.
She must have never thought of going out to play with Cain, who has been struggling since childhood.
Now that she can afford it, she seems to be shining her eyes.
“We haven’t been to the western town yet, have we?”
“What, haven’t you been to the west town?”
“Have you been there?”
“Of course I went. Even if I did, I went with Eri before I became a priest.”
“Hmm…That’s right.”
I wondered if he left me and went out alone, but it turned out to be a date.
It’s okay if it’s a date…
“Then why is the western town all of a sudden?”
“I heard there’s a watch shop there…”
“You really like clocks… Didn’t you turn a room into a clock room this time?”
I asked Stella to decorate one of the rooms in a dark hotel atmosphere, just like Dave and Eri’s house.
It is designed to be air-conditioned at all times in spring, summer, autumn and winter.
Because the air conditioner is also the best dehumidifier.
Watches that are affected by moisture must be stored well.
“Well, no one complains about your wife’s lavish hobbies.”
“Luxurious… Because my sister bought all the luxurious ones?”
“Does…Does your wife collect watches?”
“Yes. Oh, that’s right. I should buy Cain a watch too.”
I gave my attendant priests a watch as a sign of becoming a attendant priest.
I haven’t given any watches to Arya and Ether yet.
It would be best to do something similar to what I have done to others…
Then I guess I’ll have to spend the rest of the day wandering around the western town.
“…They say couples look alike.”
“Huh? What?”
“Ah…It’s nothing, Mrs. Ma, do whatever you want.”
Dave avoids saying it’s nothing.
If there is a case where you suddenly become polite, it is that you made a huge mistake.
I’ll peck it later.
“Anyway, shouldn’t we guys get together and have fun?”
“That… That…”
“Don’t worry, I took a peek and saw that the maids of your younger sisters were really cute.”
“That… Is that so?!”
That is not the end.
Cain’s two younger sisters gained noticeable weight in the past week.
It’s cute when a child has a plump body.
Of course, she’s not overweight.
“Cain, you’re eating well too, right? Didn’t you take bread to your room just to feed your younger sisters?”
“Awesome…”
“Wow… Did you really carry it?”
Are there any younger sisters like this?
If you’re hungry, you can take it out of the refrigerator in the kitchen and eat it.
My refrigerator is filled with food by the maids, feeling like an oasis that never runs dry.
Even if I, who likes milk, take out all the milk and drink it, when I go to the bathroom and open the kitchen, it’s all stocked up.
So, if you don’t eat the food in the refrigerator within a certain amount of time, it’s a waste.
When I explained what had happened, he looked quite shocked.
A refrigerator that never dries is said to be something out of a fairy tale when you were a child.
“Anyway! This week’s rest day, are we going to play together?”
“The knights are also together.”
Cain nodded her head, as if in agreement with Dave’s words.
To say that there is an 8-year age difference and they get along like that, is Cain like an adult or Dave like a child?
From noble mtl dot com.
Personally, I think it’s the latter.
“Somewhere, as long as my wife and mother don’t oversleep, there’s nothing wrong with the plan.”
“Kuhmm… You know I can’t help being tired, right?”
Every night, Dave doesn’t know my position as I am attacked by Stella…
No, I don’t know.
Cain won’t know!
