Devil’s Claw, Depth’s Wreck (3)
“Oh, if that’s the case!”
“I’m sorry, but we don’t do that.”
The excited little sister opened her mouth, but her brother’s side cut off the waist.
I rolled my eyes in surprise. The boy’s young eyes grew sharp.
“You pass that customer information to this customer, and you pass this customer information to that customer. Then no one will believe us, so how do we do business? There won’t be a single warlock left to sell us junk.”
“ah······.”
“Oppa, do you think like that? surprising.”
“Be quiet, please.”
“What did you eat and suddenly became smart? Let’s share.”
“hey.”
The brothers and sisters groaned while holding the wheel of the cart.
Then I smiled and looked at the children.
The age difference between the two of us doesn’t seem like much, but somehow it reminds me of the three of us.
Suddenly, I remembered the last chicken I ate together, and my nose twitched.
The content of the comedy movie we watched together in the living room was still vivid in my mind.
Lofi looked up at me and tilted his head.
I shook my head and raised the corners of my lips.
both of you will be fine No, are you sleeping well?
“That’s right, I’m sorry. He hadn’t even thought of that.”
·····I’ll be back soon. After keeping a few promises here.
“Then can I ask you something else?”
“Yeah, what.”
When I asked a question while exchanging glances with the prince, the boy answered with a slightly softened attitude.
That alone was a very grateful response.
The black market folks we’ve been experiencing since dawn were extremely reluctant to talk to strangers.
Even with a light greeting, he would get angry or blatantly ignore it.
It seemed like everyone was a potential sinner. The fact that everyone was sensitive to the exhibition also played a part.
It was the merchants who answered questions, but even that was blunt and unkind in most cases.
Even Sir John said that there were no proper connections here.
Most of the warlocks are being chased, and it’s because there are very few people who live long.
It wasn’t a dark underground city for nothing.
I lowered my voice.
“Are there any unusual rumors in the market these days? I’m looking for a man with colorful magic tools on his limbs and tattoos on his face. The hair is lavender. You look very beautiful.”
“·················ogue.”
“·················ogue.”
Then the two children opened their eyes and looked at each other.
It was a reaction that anyone could see. I spoke coldly. You can’t miss this opportunity!
“The pay will go down. In a lump sum, advance payment is possible if desired. Of course, all secrets about you will be guaranteed.”
“Brother, please don’t do that and tell me to help you. He gave me the money right away!”
“Instead, I would like you to remain silent about us. Other than that, there are no other conditions.”
“·················ogue.”
Then the boy looked up at me with a smirk on his face. My dry saliva passed through my mouth.
My heart was pounding, wanting to reject this mourner like a knife and turn around.
These are the kids who live in rough places, so they will be more vigilant, and there was no reason to do business with us, the first time we met.
If there was a guardian, it would be the first thing to get his permission.
Prince Sedric and Lofi also looked slightly nervous.
That was then.
– crumble, crumble
“Heineken, Pilsner. I bought lunch!”
Ga-in, who hugged a beautiful take-out food, appeared!
“Inexhaustible sausages and our favorite yogurt. taut?”
Pain perdu. They eat like this from the other side of the continent!
“Anyway, bread soaked in milk and egg, baked and sprinkled with sugar. Set for 10 people. This is a salad, and this is a cookie that I got as a bonus! There is also a dessert that I bought on the recommendation of Mr. Johann. What was your name?”
“It’s called a banket. It contains almond paste, so you will enjoy it. I brought coffee and tea, so let’s eat first.”
“Thank you, you two. I will enjoy this food.”
“You’re doing it like this since broad daylight? Are you going to go hungry for dinner?”
Confucius Djibril Dioff, who was approaching all of a sudden, asked in astonishment.
I shrugged and looked back at the children.
The girl was devouring her appetite, lost in her mind.
My brother’s reaction was no different.
It broke my heart to see them wearing goggles that were much bigger than my face, covered in soot, and working without eating.

On the other hand, it seemed that he had found a way to break down the boundary between siblings, and a bitter smile came out.
This is probably the fastest.
“Would you like to eat together?”
“·················ogue.”
“·················ogue.”
“I am not asking for anything in return. It’s just too much for us to eat. I didn’t know the street vendors were so friendly.”
As he handed him warm bread and spoke softly, finally the boy’s expression softened. cute.
“Instead, we go to where we live. There is a lot of snow here, so it’s dangerous.”
The little boy mumbled as he took the bread kindly with both hands.
Ga-in exhaled with a ‘huh’.
Are you going straight to your house? We’re strangers, isn’t that more dangerous?
“Umm…”
“Come back about 100 steps. You are doing other things in moderation.”
“OK got it. I will follow you right away.”
For once, he shook his head.
Then the two children and the cart slowly made their way up the hill.
I took the lunch basket and turned to my friends.
Thankfully, our main couple wasn’t very much opposed to it, and Confucius Diop didn’t have a say in the first place.
It was thanks to Lofi that I was able to talk to the Scrap Children, so of course it was quiet here too…
“Let’s go. Young children are the opponents everyone cares about. You may have seen and heard a lot of things unexpectedly.”
‘There was no special energy or the smell of blood.’ Finally, Sir John stamped it.
The expression on his face was also a gentle smile. Ga-in and I quickly turned red on our faces.
Thank you, sir!

after an hour.
-chin!
I took the last step with my basket on my back. My breath hit the tip of my chin.
“Uh-huh… There is a house for the children in such a high place…?”
– Nyaaah
At some point, the robe hood came off, and the magic stone glasses were crooked.
No, I’m not kidding. This is just hiking level.
– Doo doo doo doo…!
“Ugh.”
Besides, an airship the size of Juliet’s Palace is flying right in front of you!
I was shocked and looked back. Whew! A hot and humid wind blew.
From here, the scene of the black market, like a stain of poison, was clearly visible.
“Whoa, whoa….”
In the huge, dark underground space, there were no missing objects and no missing terrain.
We passed the star-shaped plaza and climbed the hill, then we walked downhill again and through winding alleys.
It seemed that I had only wandered for about thirty minutes, but out of the blue, a steep ascent appeared in front of me.
It was a level that required a rope or a ladder with a little exaggeration.
Even on such a road, Cheol-sang Ko and Siblings were friendly and pushed the cart.
“under······. It seems like it’s all over I exercised for a while. Let’s sit down for 10 seconds.”
– nah oh
“Yeah, thanks to you. thank you.”
It was a yard where even the owner of our hostel did not even receive greetings with plaques such as ‘Do not enter the doomsday’ and ‘No unnecessary dialogue’.
No matter how young they were, they couldn’t miss a chance like this.
Besides, it wasn’t the opponent that Lofi wanted.
Shinsoo, who was going ahead, walked about ten steps and waited for me, and then went about 20 steps and waited for me repeatedly.
There must have been something in such a cooperative manner.
However, the paladins and lightning wizards had tremendous stamina, so naturally I was the last.
It’s not at the level where I’m falling for it, really…
I also won first place in the long run at the in-house athletic competition.
“Can I pick you up, Heineken? Or hug the princess?”
“no! it’s okay!”
Ga-in waved her hands in excitement as she asked the question.
Suddenly, the prince was standing next to her and looking down at me.
“I need to build up my stamina. With a body like that, I can’t handle the royal schedule.”
From https://noblemtl.com
Oh, it’s because you two have too much stamina!
Anyway, I ran these hill pants under 10 minutes!
– Kwok!
In anger, I grabbed the ankles of both of them and stood up.
It was meant to be revenge in its own way, but Ga-in was joking around and the Crown Prince only raised his eyebrows.
The drug was very tight. Don’t leave this bastard couple alone…!
“Everyone is here! This is our home!”
– Doo doo doo doo…!
-Woo…
Startle.
Beyond the terrifying noise of the airship and the creepy ghost castle, the scrap metal girl waved her arms.
Sir John and Confucius Diop were looking somewhere in the wind.
We followed them and moved our eyes slowly.
And for a moment I was stunned.
“······Crazy, great!”
The old tree ‘Devil’s Claw’ that supported the entire black market was stretching out its trunk up to here.
It means we’ve climbed that high, but it wasn’t just the branching level.
The yellow plots were closely overlapped and woven like a miniature painting, and they were building a large nest on the top of the hill.
The wooden cave was as beautiful as a jewel box made by a craftsman, and as mysterious as in a fairy tale book.
Moreover, it was round and spherical, as if it was made by rolling a snowball.
It was a haven that perfectly harmonized with creepy black magic and magic organs.
It was the children’s house.
“Wow…”
I looked at the little brothers and sisters with my mouth wide open.
The children looked very excited in front of the adult guests.
There was no fear or fear to be found.
The moment I saw it, I had a brief realization.
From https://noblemtl.com
Oh······.
– oh oh oh
“I see.”
That old tree was the protector of these children.
*
It was very cozy inside.
The stinging noises outside were as far away as lies, and the air was so clean that it felt like we were in another world.
it was really weird It didn’t fit the nickname ‘Devil’s Claw’ at all.
“ah! My name is Kina, and my brother’s name is Willem. There is no last name!”
The girl who ate the bread and sausages full, declared with a bunch of crumbs on her lips.
Ga-in smiled kindly and wiped the child’s face.
As the soot-stained skin cleared, plump, pubic cheeks were revealed.
I was happy to see that I was just my age.
I diligently put potatoes and cheese on Willem’s toothed plate.
The boy ate up milk and fruit even while looking at us.
From what I’ve heard, the most precious things here are fresh dairy products and produce.
Seven people and a divine beast were sitting around a table made by joining two broken tables together.
The occasional flickering lights indicate that Kina fixed an object that a warlock had thrown away.
It was also the end of lunch. I took my luck carefully.
“That, that there is no last name….”
“My parents left us here. We were three years old.”
Willem shrugged and replied. I couldn’t help but be stunned for a moment.
The children had no-nonsense expressions on their faces, but they could not even imagine how much trouble and sorrow it must have been for them to be able to speak like that.
It’s not just an ordinary town, how could you ever think of abandoning a three-year-old in a place like this? is that person
A burst of anger erupted, and both cheeks heated up in an instant.
But instead of angering the unknown child abuser, we decided to focus on the children of today.
you need to calm down you should be calm
“·······The two of us worked really hard and lived well. Taking care of each other while staying healthy. Awesome.”
“I think so. If it wasn’t for my brother and ‘claws’, I would have been the last!”
Kina shouted with a big ball.
Then Sir John gently squeezed the conversation in.
“When you say ‘claw’, do you mean the devil’s claw?”
“yes!”
“It seems that the tree of the black market has made a house for you.”
“Right. But that’s not all!”
The girl’s voice grew louder.
Willem noticed, “Hey.”
What do you do right after eating?
“I was scratched here today and I was bleeding. look at this.”
“Gosh. I’ll make it better for you.”
There was a long scar on my skinny forearm!
I was startled and tried to get up from my seat.
Confucius Diop clicked his tongue and muttered, ‘You were a tomboy indeed.’
However, Kina jumped up and jumped up.
All eyes were on the child.
“it’s okay. Your toenails will heal.”
“yes?”
“It goes by in the blink of an eye, so pay attention.”
The girl looked at the ceiling of the cave for a long time, then grabbed a vine that was dripping down.
Even then, we did not know exactly what the child’s intentions were.
Can you eat it raw? Is the tree in the legend used for medicinal purposes? It seems plausible.
“Put the vine to the injured area and pray for it. claws. I hurt my arm. Can you kindly help me…?”
Kinna looked up at the ceiling and asked earnestly.
However, nothing happened in the cave for a few dozen seconds.
I don’t think it was eaten right away. We quickly exchanged glances.
Willem, who had not seen it, sighed as the ground fell. I was all ashamed.
That moment,
-…
A fine flax-colored light emanated from the tip of the claw’s thin vines.
The girl, wrapped in a gentle energy, smiled broadly. I opened my mouth wide open.
-Sorry!
Soon, the wounds of the child began to disappear as if erased with an eraser.

Oh my gosh, my god, even François vouches for this – my jaw hurts!
“Voila! Everything is fine!”
It has to be, tall or child!
Now that I see it, it’s 99.9% new!
