My Disciples Know That I Am Strong

Episode 1. Gathering the warriors (5)

“I’ll bring you clothes to change into, so wash up and rest.”

I immediately took her to her inn. Because I wasn’t in a state to take Iris, who was covered in mud, somewhere else.

“Gwa, it’s okay. You can wash this and wear it.”

She said, grabbing the worn-out T-shirt she was wearing. She was in such a state that even a slight tug would tear her apart.

“Dirty and smelly. Take it off.”

“Ah… ….”

Iris sighs.

Ah, come to think of it, he was tired of peeing…….

Iris lowered her head at the tone of her manners, which could not be found after washing her eyes.

‘No way, are you crying? I shouldn’t cry.’

“If you cry, I will kick you out. I hate to hear you cry.”

Why doesn’t this muzzle know that he has to be careful with his words?

Iris is not a slave.

Although she hadn’t yet awakened the power of a hero, beastmen were basically stronger than humans. Even more so, since he worked at the construction site, his strength must be better than mine.

I’m sure it would hurt a lot if I got hit. You might cry

A 19-year-old who was beaten and dragged by a 10-year-old…….

Um. It is a black history that should never happen.

‘Okay, let’s never get angry with Iris.’

“I don’t like to get angry. If you don’t want to be kicked out, crawl on your own.”

f*ck. What is crawling to a 10-year-old, crawling.

“Yes, yes! Oh, no crying!”

Iris whimpers and hastily wipes away her tears. She smiled and said, but her eyes were still moist.

“It comes and goes.”

“Yes, yes! Come on!”

Keep your back politely. How could a 10-year-old do something like this?

I’ve already seen Iris’ past in the game, but it seemed like he might need to have a serious conversation sometime.

“Water and beef jerky were in a bag. Eat when you’re hungry. When you finish showering, change into my clothes. If you’re not wearing anything, it’ll be a bit like that.”

“…… Oh, I see.”

I closed the door and went outside.

Wouldn’t it be nice to buy clothes and underwear for a 10-year-old?

Since other kids have to wear it anyway, I buy several sets at once.

“Buying clothes for slaves… ….”

Iris was staring blankly at the door that Prause had closed.

“Besides, he didn’t hit me because he smelled bad. Mr. Folde beat me up a lot whenever he smelled it…….”

Muttering while smelling the smell of old clothes covered in mud.

“A mysterious person… ….”

A mysterious person. Iris thought so.

The way he speaks is emotionless, and every time he sees himself, he exudes murderous spirits, but his actions are meticulous.

When she’s scared, she gives me jerky and water and tells me not to worry, she won’t hurt me.

When he felt uncomfortable with the pain, instead of cursing, he gave him a potion.

She bought herself for twice the amount and freed her from slavery in the first place.

Since he was the kind of person he had never seen before, Iris had no choice but to look strange.

‘What kind of person is this? …. What do you want from me?’

She knew nothing was free in this world, Iris knew.

She obviously expected Prause to ask something of her.

“Come to think of it, I was talking about a virgin. No way… ….”

‘No, I didn’t think that was the case. If that had been the purpose, the slave contract would not have been canceled……. Then what the hell is the purpose?’

After thinking for a while, she finally let out a sigh. It was because with her own head she couldn’t fathom what he was thinking.

“But…… He didn’t seem like a bad person…….”

Iris thought of Prause and turned her body to the bathroom.

She was thinking of getting her cleaned up before Prause came back.

‘Lord, I made a mistake in front of my master…….’

When she thought that, she shook her head vigorously, though her shame rose again, her face hot.

‘You don’t have to make mistakes in the future. Because the owner seems to be overdoing this. Okay, let’s do our best.’

She was aware that even though she did not have a slave contract, she was a sold body, so she was full of thoughts of taking anything Prause said.

That’s how she survived until now.

There were no children’s light clothes that would be worn in modern times. For the most part, it was all about clothes that were good for activities.

Of course, there were places that were more upscale.

There was also a clothing store made of silk that was easy to see, such as dazzling dresses and everyday wear. However, the price range was different, probably for aristocrats.

Right now, it was enough to put them on.

Besides, I had to buy three people’s worth of clothes, so I had no choice but to choose quantity over quality.

That’s how I packed my bags and headed back.

I decided to turn around a bit and head to the inn.

I was thinking of meeting the second warrior who was begging while I came out. Just to get used to the face.

I want to drag him right away, but I was thinking of making him feel like he wants to follow himself.

It was because that way we could deal with the situation more flexibly.

“Where were you? As far as I remember, I think it was done in front of the main road on October 1st.”

I looked around for a long time without stopping.

I could see a girl with her face and clothes covered in dust and bowing her head.

It was hard to tell when it was washed. People also frowned at her as they passed around her.

It smells so bad that you can’t get close to it.

Well, I wonder if a kid living with a gangster can afford to wash up. Survival is at stake right now, so what’s the point of washing?

Kids living with gangsters had to pay a certain amount by begging, but if they couldn’t pay, it was normal to be beaten and had to starve.

Then you might want to say that you can go to an orphanage with a better environment, but unlike today, in this world, orphanages had to prove their children’s worth.

Are you worthy of entering the orphanage? How can you help orphanages?

It was a world that judged such things.

The orphanage also receives support from the imperial palace, but the situation is not good enough, so there is no choice but to measure it.

I moved in front of the hero.

It was fortunate that they were still begging.

The moment I took another step in peace, a stench wafted up that made me want to cover my nose inadvertently. Is this worse than a pissed Iris?

“Oh, f*ck.”

I couldn’t stop my nose because I had luggage, so I inadvertently spat out curse words. At my words, the child on her knees flinched.

[「Live」Is activated.]

I start to shudder. Oh right. My life is activated just by looking at me.

I tried to turn my head, but now I think it’s better to keep living.

Squat down in front of the child.

The child trembled uncontrollably at the sound of her clothes brushing against her. I can’t see her face because her hair is long.

I glance down at the cracked bowl. There was no money.

Clink.

I put the silver coin into the bowl.

“Ugh, silver coins…… !”

“Listen to your face.”

Raise your head slowly.

Black hair, black eyes.

The condition was dusty, sweaty, dirty, and his hair was long, so he wondered if he was a real warrior.

It was because he had a much more serious appearance than when he saw it in the illustration. At first glance, they look similar, but it was difficult to be certain.

Make eye contact with me. It was hard to see because of the grime on his face, but his eyes were red.

But why are you trying to cry? Is it because you cursed?

The child tries to raise her mouth while trembling to live. Although she was scared, she seemed to be in a good mood.

I guess so. Because no one puts silver coins in the begging.

“Name.”

“Yes?”

“Name.”

“Tee, Tina…… It is.”

Tina.

That was the name of the second hero.

Mankind’s strongest sword. A human capable of cutting down everything.

A girl who is simple but strong enough.

To put it mildly, it is said that no living thing can survive in the place where she passed.

“I see. Who built it?”

“Yeah, my parents who abandoned me when I was six years old built it.”

Although he trembles for life, he answers properly. I was scared, but I feel upright. It also matches the information you already know.

‘Not bad.’

“What a nice guy.”

I put her things down and handed her the jerky she had tucked in her pocket. Tina accepts, widening her eyes.

“…… Where are you going tomorrow?”

“Yes? Ah…… It’s near the market place. I have a lot of kids, so I change the area every time…….”

“Yes.”

If I could speak more politely, there would be no needless expenses. This damn snout had no flexibility whatsoever.

I got up from my seat. It was to go to the inn.

“Over there!”

Call me.

“Thank you.”

“…… It won’t fit today.”

“Yes?”

Without even paying attention to her bewildered reaction, I moved on.

* * *

‘No, I’m scared. What? What?!’

Tina nearly had her pee at Prause because of the incredible killing spree that grew stronger the closer she got to her.

As she approached the man who gave off a much more oppressive atmosphere than the man she was attached to, his body stiffened.

“Oh, f*ck.”

Since she is not saying anything with her head down, she curses outright.

‘I, oh, am I going to die today? If it was like this, I would have bought something delicious with the money I earned from begging… ….’

Her eyes started to redden. But just before her tears welled up, she desperately held it back.

Until now, every time she showed tears, she couldn’t help but cry when she thought of how she had been beaten by thugs.

It was then.

Clink.

The sound of coins echoed over the bowl. She glanced at the silver coin inside the bowl and her eyes widened.

“Silver coins…… !”

“Listen to your face.”

Unable to resist her commanding tone, Tina lifted her own face, which she thought was ugly.

“Name.”

The man looked at his face for a while and asked a question.

From noble mtl dot com

“Yes?”

Tina inadvertently gave out an idiotic voice. By the time she closed her eyes, thinking she was going to be beaten, she heard her again.

“Name.”

Although she is blunt, Tina was relieved by her calm voice, as if her patience was deep.

She was worried about the ongoing hostility, but she opened her mouth, thinking that she wouldn’t give a silver coin to someone she wanted to kill.

“Tee, Tina…… It is.”

She was taken aback by the sudden start of the household survey, but the man didn’t ask for details.

Then he gets up and leaves.

“Thank you.”

She said she wouldn’t fit in today, she reassured her, and thanked her hastily.

“It won’t fit today.”

Tina was stunned by the completely emotionless remark.

Tears flowed nonstop from her eyes as she watched the man’s back move away.

“Black! Suck…… !”

She habitually suppressed her cries, but her tears could not be stopped. She wiped and wiped, but it continued to flow.

It won’t fit today.

Those words lingered in Tina’s mind over and over again.

Tina couldn’t hold back her tears because it wasn’t enough that she didn’t feel any emotions out of consideration for herself, it was something that made her understand everything about her situation.

After crying for a long time, she muttered as she watched Prause leave.

“Again…… Can I meet you?”

Tina glanced at her silver coin in her own clutch with her sniffles.
