Chapter 81 - Unexpected information (1/2)

It's my first morning at Malsia, and once again, I wake up at a site of new ceiling. With me are all the orphan boys sleeping like a log. They're 14 of them with the oldest one being 13 years old and the youngest one (and also the youngest in the group) nearing 4 years old. Well, they're sleeping peacefully, so let me just use the kitchen first and make some good breakfast for them.

This small mansion, they're Mira's parents property which was passed down to her since they end up dying as a result of the succession war. Apparently, like what Lisa had told me, the two leader that opposes King Druser of Demon Kingdom as well as his Paladin Aries, one day launch an attack to Malsia and almost ravage this kingdom as a result of it. Her parents as well as those working in this mansion die and Mira left this mansion as she can't help but to feel sad, reminiscing about her childhood day when living here. Must be tough.

”Morning” [Ash]

”You're up early” [Mira]

”Have to cook some breakfast for them” [Ash]

”Let me help as well” [Mira]

”Gladly” [Ash]

And we started to cook. I have to make some heavy meal for me as well since I will start my investigation today itself.

Last night, after making sure all the orphan asleep, Haliza, Mira and I went to the castle and meet King Malsia. I presented to him the letter from King Estel before him, and to my surprise, King Estel did have good impression on me, just that he tell King Malsia not to bother with the way I talk and how I greet the noble and royal (by writing what actually happened during our first meeting). Well, as long as I don't have to make a fake smile and all that, I guess it's fine.

”Morning” [Teenage girl]

”Morning, you sure wake up early” [Mira]

”Can you cook? If not, I can teach you” [Ash]

”...” [Teenage girl]

”Alright then, start with chopping these carrots” [Ash]

”I'll try my best” [Teenage girl]

Seo Ah, that's the teenage girl name. Like her Korean name, she followed the same features especially her long black hair that she's tying right now, but

”Hahahaha. That's not how you hold a knife” [Ash]

~Blush~ [Seo Ah]

”Ash!” [Mira]

”Sorry, sorry. Here, I'll teach you” [Ash]

This is exactly how Farhah first uses a knife. Well, she might not know it, but that's the beauty of keep on living your life everyday. You'll learn something new and for her, today is learning how to cook. I'll just make a simple sweet Malaysian curry, they use coconut milk in their ingredient to make it more delicious, and that's exactly how I'm doing it right now and...

”Call the other please” [Mira]

”I will” [Seo Ah]

”Ash, can you please lift this up?” [Mira]

”Sure” [Ash]

As we prepare the table, one by one, the kids come downstairs and start taking their sit and we have our breakfast after they all gather. Instead of talking with other, they're more focused on the food right in front of them. And here I am, wanting to memorize their name during breakfast itself, but I guess that can wait. Haliza barge in halfway through and join us for the second breakfast

”You'll get fat” [Ash]

”How dare you!” [Haliza]

~Scare~ [Kids]

”Really Ash...” [Mira]

”Kids, Don't follow this bad example of his. Don't get me wrong, he is a nice and strong person but his foul mouth part, absolutely don't follow that!” [Haliza]

”Yes” [Kids]
