"Kronos, are you lazy?".

On the second floor of the tavern, in a small bedroom

A little girl of about twelve or thirteen years old, with her hands on her waist, said to Kronos in the room with some annoyance.

In the face of the little girl's reprimand, Kronos didn't take it to heart.

Instead, he responded gently.

"I'll go down in a moment. "

Listening to Kronos's gentle voice, the little girl was also stunned for a while.

Originally, she also wanted to take this opportunity to scold Kronos and suppress his 'arrogance'.

But now Kronos's gentle attitude made her suddenly not know what to say.

After hesitating for a long time, the girl snorted stubbornly.

"Hmph, you'd better hurry!".

With that, the girl ignored Kronos, turned and left the room.

Watching the girl leave, Kronos did not say anything.

After a moment, Kronos whispered to himself.

System, open the Properties panel. "

The panel is open. 】

[Host]: Kronos

[Prestige]: 80

[Ability]: None

[Convening Members]: None

[Possession]: Devil Fruit*1

[Entrance to the Prize Pool"].

Looking at his own panel, which only has a prestige value of 80, Kronos's heart is a little complicated.

"Hasn't changed today?".

"It's been more than a week...."

Muttering, Kronos stood up, left the room, and went downstairs.

As soon as he reached the corner of the stairs, Kronos saw the tavern counter.

The little girl who had gone upstairs to look for her was hit on the head with a knife.

"Boom!".

"Oops!".

The little girl hugged her head and exhaled, and complained with tears in her eyes.

"Mother, why are you beating me?".

Erica, the tavernkeeper, glared at the little girl.

"Honestly, did you just bully Kronos again?".

The little girl turned her head a little weakly and muttered in a low voice.

"I.... Didn't I tell him to get up..."

Erica raised her eyebrows, a little displeased.

"Do you call people to wake up like that? I hear you all. "

As she spoke, Erica raised her hand to give the little girl's head one more time.

At this moment, Kronos's voice came.

"Good morning, Auntie. "

Hearing this sudden voice, Erica and the little girl both subconsciously turned their heads to look.

I saw that Kronos had already come downstairs and walked towards them with a smile on his face.

As soon as she saw Kronos, the little girl immediately snorted unhappily.

"Humph!".

It's good that she doesn't hum, but as soon as she hums, Erica suddenly gets angry.

The hand knife that had stopped was once again hit her little head.

"Boom!".

"Oops. The little girl exhaled again.

Then came Erica's disapproving voice.

"While playing. "

The little girl muttered, but she didn't dare to resist, so she had to leave the counter in a huff.

Seeing this, Kronos did not say anything.

He could have said a few nice words to the little girl.

But he didn't.

Because he understands that this will only backfire.

Saying a few kind words to the little girl will make Erica feel that she is a good person, kind, and her opinion of herself will increase.

But in the same way, she will again accuse the little girl of wrong behavior.

And the little girl will resent herself even more.

This is not what Kronos wants to see.

It's morning, there are no guests yet, and the tavern seems somewhat quiet.

Kronos came to the front desk, silently wiped down his glass, and helped Erica with some chores.

At this time, Erica couldn't help but sigh and said to Kronos.

"Tina, this kid is still young and ignorant, don't take what she says to heart. "

Hearing this, Kronos smiled and said.

"No, don't worry, Auntie. "

Hearing this, Erica fell silent with some speech.

Erica also wanted to comfort Kronos.

She felt like she had a lot to say to Kronos, but she didn't know how to say it right now.

There was silence for a few moments before she spoke.

"It's good to think of it like your home. "

Hearing this, Kronos only smiled in response.

"Hmm. "

More than a month ago, Kronos crossed into this world.

At that time, Kronos was in a situation where he was almost starved to death from the beginning.

It was the owner of the tavern, and Erica gave him a bowl of rice and kindly took him in.

Therefore, for Tina's previous rebuke, Kronos will not take it to heart.

Even if Tina was going too far, Kronos wouldn't be angry.

First, it is because he is not qualified to send people under the fence at this moment.

The second reason is that Kronos has long regarded Tina as his sister.

Of course, the fact that Tina is his sister.

Kronos didn't mention it to Erica either.

Because this will only increase Erica's good opinion of herself.

It doesn't make sense to just talk about it, it depends on what it does.

Therefore, there is no need to mention and inform Erica about this matter.
