His father died when Hachiro was still a child. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Hachiro was so sad that he curled up in the corner and cried incessantly.

Just then, a man walked up to Hachiro and carried Hachiro on his back.

- Hey! Hachiro! You are my son from today onwards!

The man uttered loving words that did not match his tone, and looked at Hachiro with extremely gentle eyes.

The man is not magnificent, and even a little short.

But Hachiro, who was carried on the back by the man, felt extremely relieved at this time, as if he had been redeemed.

――

In this way, the man became Hachiro's new father.

Men often run around with Hachiro on his back to make Hachiro happy.

The man often asked Hachiro to put his head on his thigh and help Hachiro pluck his ears.

The man often asked Hachiro to hold his big rough hand and take Hachiro around with the other children.

Hachiro also met two people who were very important to him here.

No matter how busy the man is with government affairs, he will never forget Hachiro.

Hachiro now still has tears in his eyes when he thinks back to that time.

It was probably the best period of my life.

――

Time flies.

Hachiro has grown from a child to an adult, but the once young and strong man has become a gray-haired old man.

Before he died, the man called Hachiro to his pillow and asked Hachiro to take care of his two young biological sons.

In an instant, Hachiro seemed to go back to twenty years ago, remembering himself at that time.

Although the man has long since grown old, the eyes that look at Hachiro are as gentle and kind as ever.

From then on, Hachiro decided that he must take good care of the two young children. It's like the man swore to protect Hachiro's father back then.

Therefore, when he knew that a war was coming that would be difficult to win, Hachiro still resolutely set off.

- Hachiro, I will never betray you.

Hachiro, the only one, has never regretted this decision.
