Chapter 17

The day after their dinner party, Flaredients fro her final report

Perhaps because she proved herself by taking out the Anzu, her adventurer rank had raised to D before long and her incoht that since she had to support two people, she had to earn more, so she couldn’t take it easy just yet

“Or rather…is Eternsan going to work…?”

She had been staying inside her roo, but she didn’t knohat it is that she’s doing

But since she taught Fla her free tioing to work?”

They can still e their expenses for now, so Flao fro dark

It’s not like she’s taking her sweet tiuild

It was siht that the , but it turns out that the small anied to take it down and obtained its hide, but she was a lot more tired than usual

With that, she won’t be surprised if she was attacked by the receptionist Iira or the fools froroup seems dispirited today

It also looks like their leader Dain is also having awith his boys in such a heavy at that they’re not picking a fight with her

But at the sa that there are no ways for her to repay their debts

“It would’ve been great if I could take the her wish, her boots kicked a pebble away

But then the pebble hit soirl

The girl that was lying down as the cold pebble hit her perhaps was just about Sarah’s age

Her black hair was tied up into a ponytail, and both her white top and bottom are dirtied by dirt

“…This feels like trouble is brewing up”, Flaure of soht in the Western District

Some drunkenaround here for several years, you’re guaranteed to have seen a dead body or two

But it irl, especially in such a young age

Obviously, as night falls, public safety will get even worse, so if a girl like her is walking around, a lot of men would swarm her

Obviously, only to sate their lust

Which means—It’s possible that soht sight of her

She couldn’t possibly just leave her lying there

So she squats down, put her hand to her shoulder and shook her up

“Hey, are you alright? You’ll get attacked by perverts if you sleep here, you know?”

“Nn…uu…”

The girl flopped over, and as Flamm saw her face—or rather, her eyes—she was startled

They were stitched shut

It was so cleanly done that it has no fester, so it’s possible that it was done by the hands of a doctor

But what’s even et here?”

She still had a volu properly

Her hair wasn’t rough, so so her hair

There are no signs of abuse, and she didn’t s baths

It doesn’t feel like she escaped her confine her shoulder, she listlessly said “Who is iit?”

“Just a noro soirl was quiet for a while, but then she exclaiht tone;

“Ink!”

“Huh?”

“My name is InkNice to meet you”

“Eh, uhh…nice to irl’s flow and ended up saying “nice to meet you”, but what’s so nice about all this?

While Flairl rattled on

“I lost my memoriesI don’t really knoho I am”

“But you remember your name?”

“Yeah! By coincidence!”

It was such a convenient coincidence

Flairl’s hand to let her stand

After patting the dust fro “See you, Ink,” and waved her hand cal duck that is the girl couldn’t let her go, so both of her hands tightly grabbed onto Flamm’s clothes and stopped her

“You see, I don’t have a place to sleep”

“R, right…”

“I don’t have a place to return, and I don’t have irl wanted

Basically, the blind runaway girl wants to stay in her place

She even blatantly lied all the way and said she lost her memories

If she were to take care of this kid, she didn’t want to iet involved in, and on top of that, doing that didn’t benefit her in any forure out what’ll happen to a young girl on her lonesome in the West District

But thelike that was the h onceyou to ht?”

“I know nothing! I lost my memories after all!”

Are there some people in the world who can be so cheerful if they lost their h of the day and started walking with the girl in tow

On the way home, Flamm asked Ink a lot of questions, but she was ada

Her lie had been exposed long ago, but it doesn’t see to retract her story about her amnesia

She won’t be able to deal with this on her own, so ai to seek help from Milkit and Eterna, Flamm’s pace quickened

Ink, too, didn’t mind that and followed suit

There aren’t any probleth—so what does her status look like?

She felt bad for checking without the person’s per her statement

——————————————————————————

Ink Riesekraft

Attribute: Water

Strength: 18

Intelligence: 43

Endurance: 28

Agility: 23

Intuition: 49

——————————————————————————

Her Intelligence and Intuition are soirl

It see about her name as well

“Riesekraft, huh…I wonder which family is that”

“Did you Scan me?”

“I did”

“Perv”

Flaed to keep it down

She’s just a child, and as a 16 year-old, Flamm needs to be the mature one

“By the way, how old are you, Ink?”

“Ten!”

As expected, she’s the sae as Sarah

“You said you had amnesia but you remembered that, huh”

“Ah…um, I remembered about my body”

“Such clever body”

“Don’t you think the way you say it is also perverted?”

“Nope”

What a very convenient amnesia

Either way, it’s such a reckless behavior for a blind 10-year-old to run froht at the West District

It’s such a drag, but I’ht Flamm from the bottom of her heart

After a short walk, the two arrived at Flamm’s house

She opened the door and said “I’ toward her from the kitchen

Milkit showed her ses at her master as she said “Welcoirl next to her, she showed a puzzled expression

“I’ll explain it to you later, so can I go up first?”

“Y-YesI prepared your meal as well”

“Yeah, thanks”

As she said that, she petted Milkit on her head and Milkit turned bashful in turn

Right behind them, Ink held onto Flamm’s clothes and followed after her

“The delicious sry”

With perfect tirumbled

It wasn’t loud, but it seems like it was captured by Milkit’s ears, and her cute yet stiff cheeks slackened

“Fufu, this is the first tiredient, so I hope master likes it…Ah, by the way, should I prepare a meal for this child too?”

“Aah…How about it, Ink? Do you want to eat?”

“Of course!”

She was truly a child without modesty

Flamm dropped her shoulders in exasperation, while Milkit showed a bitter s roo her fork and knife as if she’s waiting impatiently for dinner

She looked over at Fla—”Flairl!” with a blank expression

“That’s not it! I just picked her up by chance, I can’t possibly leave her behind”

“She brought me here!”

One idiot raised her hand up cheerfully

“I’irlThere is sos I need to do to prepare dinner, so please have a seat first, Master”

“Ah, it’s alright, I’ll help tooSit down over here, Ink”

“Okaay!”

Ink raised her ar for the chair by her hand and sitting down after finding it

They thought she’d need help because she’s blind, but it turns out that she can be independent to a certain extent

Fla with Milkit to finish her cooking

For an instance, Milkit looked like she felt bad for having her help, but she didn’t put it into words any out with cooking is an everyday thing, and even when she apologized, Fla what’s obvious”

The ht now is different from those she served under in the past

As if it’s the natural thing, Flamm is someone ould devote herself to a lowly slave that Milkit thought of herself as

If Flamm wants to pah, but Milkit herself also wished for that

Her eyesbehind it, but when Flamm smiled, Milkit replied with her own smile

She was happy with just that, and even if she’s scared of losing her, she wants to deepen this relationshi+p that they have

“I took a shower ahead~”

When Fla table, Sarah entered the roo her head with a towel

“You’re here too, Sarah-chan?”

Preparing food for 3 people ht be a bit too much, but it turns out that Sarah that had stopped by yesterday had stopped by today as well

“Ah, I’ot to tell you that Sarah-chan is co is so delicious that I want to keep co back!”

“Are you okay with the church?”

“When I toldto eat at a friend’s place, they ended up laughing and sending me out you know?”

The church’s is a bit more lenient than Flamm had expected

Well, despite the bad public safety of the West District, there shouldn’t be any idiots who are stupid enough to attack a nun, and if it’s Sarah, she would be able to turn the table if she did

“By the ho’s that girl?”

“I’m Ink!”

“Ink-chan, huh? Nice to meet you”

“Nice to meet you!”

The cheerful Ink flapped her hands as she said that

Perhaps because their age is close to each other, the two clicked together and got even“Yaa~aay!”

During such bustle, the foods are lined up on the table

Perhaps because Eterna is nearing her lilared at the Candy Boar Steith bloodshot eyes

“Oh, by the way, Candy Boars are C-rank ht? Aren’t these quite expensive?”

“It was half-off since it’s near its expiry dateIt’s still wasn’t cheap though…is it too luxurious?”

“No, isn’t it fine? If it’s half-priced it’s going to be cheaper than Goat or Buffalo ry now”

Flae plate on the middle of the table and took a seat

Candy Boars are large-bodied C-rank boar-type th, and it has high agility despite its enorh

Its weakness is the fact that it could only e of Earth-Attribute ic

The naarcane fields, a raw ar

The Candy Boar likes all sorts of sweet things and not only sugar, so there itnesses of candy boars charging into trees to knock down beehives and lick its honey

Perhaps because of that, the sweetness of the fat of its ory

Thoroughly cooked and soaked in deet so soft that you won’t need utensils to cut theht now as she salivated just by looking at the dish

The sauce itself was a ready-ht by Milkit froredients

And once she added her secret ingredient, there would definitely be a step-up on the flavor, so that too is soirls look forward to

The flavor also perether, so the soft and flaky potatoes are looking delicious

It would definitely go ith the baguette that they also prepared

After everybody confirmed that everyone had sat down on their seats, everyone said “Itadakihtly late

Thus, dinner is served

The first thing Eterna did was to scoop up bite-sized meat,her tongue slightly melted the meat in her lace sauce spreads across her mouth

The moment she bites into the fatty meat, the fat that oozes out froh of “Nfuu~” and a suette and dipped it into the stew

With the meat on top of that, she had to open her mouth wide to stuff her cheeks with it as it wasn’t so small anymore

The sauce soaks into the piece of bread, and as her teeth sinks into it, it flows back out and floods her uette’s savoriness and a tinge of saltiness, giving a completely different sensation than when eaten alone

Seeing everyone enjoying their foods, Milkit looked happy as she s the food that sheit herself

That seems to be the type of person she is

Fla happy, and in turn she became happy herself

Suddenly, their eyes met

“Is it tasty?”

“Yep, it’s the bestYou’ll be a splendid wife, Milkit”

“Rather than a wife, I’ll be happier ifthose words, Flamm scooped up more of the steith her spoon

See, so she said “It tastes better than the food on h to herself for the third time; what happened to your memory loss story?

After dinner and the cleanup of the table, what coirl isn’t fooling anyone with her ain with, they started with simple introductions
