”Ah, little princess, you're awake” Alda smiled at her ”Want breakfast? It's ready”

”Yes” Nana sat beside the dining table and ran her eyes around the room, but she did not see her father ”Where's Daddy?”

”Lord Pine went out early in thehis silver shotgun”

”Indeed” Nana curled her lips upwards ”He's probably gone to the city wall to practice shooting again—ever since he fended off the demonic beasts with the flintlock, he has beco weapon Not only does he wipe a gun barrel every day, but also he'll go to the city wall to practice whenever he has tied to apply for a specially- abilities as a bargaining chip
