Alice was not going to accept the money, although in the eyes of the common people, it was already a lot, not to mention Alice's situation. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info But Alice still doesn't think she should take it, the first few times she accompanied Solam, he had given so much money to help her get through the difficulties. I helped her again today, and she didn't want to take her benefactor's money anymore.
"If you want to take it, you can take it, you don't want it, what else does this kid want, what kind of pretend." Alice postponed this time, and Soram didn't say anything. But it angered another person, that is, Fia, from the beginning, Fia looked at Alice very unhappy, not only because she and Soram were eyebrows, but also because of her negligence, she almost killed a child.
She knows very well what will happen to such a little girl after she is sold, if she is lucky, she can grow up, and then she will be sold to a brothel, and if she is unlucky, she knows what she will experience.
Now that she is grinding and chirping, Fia thinks that she is just pretending, and she feels even more unhappy, so her tone is very bad. Alice's head was scared lower, and so was the little girl. Hide directly behind Alice, not daring to come forward.
Timo was a little overwhelmed when he saw Fia talking like this, and quickly pulled Fia, "You scared the child, things are not what you think." ”
Then he told them about Alice, because Alice was also a believer in the god of the dawn, so Timo still knew Alice very well.
It turned out that Alice was the daughter of a shoemaker in the town, and she had no mother since she was a child, and she depended on her father until a few years ago, when she and her father left the town for the country, they were unlucky enough to run into several werewolves roaming nearby, and her father died to protect her, if it weren't for an adventurer passing by who happened to save her.
Then, like all stories of heroes saving beauty, Alice tied the knot with the adventurer who saved her, and lived a happy life. The adventurer was very kind to her, and soon they had a child of their own, and it was this little girl, whose name was Shirley, and it would have been fine to go on like this.
But there were unforeseen circumstances, in order to make a good life for her and the child, his husband did not quit the adventurer, and kept doing the task until her husband's last mission, and her husband's entire lower body was destroyed, and he was about to die.
But Alice refused to give up, and insisted on finding a senior priest to help him, but the senior priest still failed to save him. There is no way, the priest is not a god, and some injuries cannot be saved, which is too normal.
Not to mention that the person was not saved, in order to find the senior pastor, Alice sold everything that could be sold in the house. Although the temple is also considered to be a good church, it can be regarded as a preferential treatment for believers, especially a devout believer like her. But to treat this kind of injury, it is impossible to treat this kind of high-level magic without charging money, otherwise the temple will drink the northwest wind, and it will be taught by a fart.
(Making money with magic is the eternal truth of Fallon, and it is a rule recognized by everyone)
People say that blessings are incomparable, and disasters are not one-way, this is really reasonable, her husband just died on the front foot, and the child had problems again, this little girl named Shirley, I don't know what's wrong, so she suddenly fell ill.
In order to treat her daughter, Alice can only borrow money everywhere, but she is a woman with a child, no relatives and no reason, where to borrow it, she has no choice but to find gangsters, and she doesn't know how to read, so she was trapped.
But the money was spent, Shirley still didn't get better, and the priests were helpless, and in the end, thanks to Christie's arrival, she saw the cause of Shirley's illness. In fact, it is congenital dysplasia, and the body has congenital heart disease, and this kind bishop, after knowing Alice's condition, is willing to help her daughter treat it for free.
Hearing this, Fia was moved, and she now knew that Alice had suffered so badly, and she was still so strong. also knew that he had wronged Alice, but he couldn't pull his face a little, so he just took out 10 gold coins from his wallet and handed them to Alice, and then said sorry, and ran away with his face covered.
Solam didn't follow Fia, but asked Alice curiously: "Didn't I give you a lot of money, why are your mother and daughter still like this?" ”
Indeed, Solam is really generous when it comes to money, and every time he is with them, he will leave them a lot of money. But looking at the appearance of their mother and daughter, their bodies were tattered, and their faces were also haggard and abnormal, and they looked malnourished.
When Alice heard Solam's words, she blushed and whispered, "I'll keep some money with Joey, otherwise those people will definitely snatch it when they see it." ”
"Oh, no wonder." Think about it, how can a woman with a child keep so much money. "Okay, you don't have to worry about it in the future, those people don't dare to trouble you anymore, you can use that money with confidence."
After saying this, Soram glanced at the little girl who was still hiding behind Alice, and she trembled with fear when she saw Soram looking at him.
Soram also found it boring, so he said hello to Teemo and Harris and left. I just taught those gangsters a lesson, and I guess it scared this kid, and it seems that I still have to pay attention to the next occasion when I beat people in the future.
――――――
"What? Do you want to join us? Mares put down the glass in her hand and looked at Teemo in surprise, this guy, who had come running over at dinner and was cheeky enough to eat. Then, at the dinner table, he said that he wanted to join Solam's team.
"Yes, I told Bishop Christie today, and she agreed, the work of the Adventurer's Guild is too boring, so I thought of teaming up with you to go on an adventure, why not?" Timo said as he scooped up the meat in the pot.
To put it mildly, today Solam and they are eating hot pot, of course, it is the kind of cottage hot pot, in fact, the soup is heated, and then some meat dishes are put in it to cook, and then they are fished out with a spoon and eaten in their own bowls.
Who told them that they don't know how to use chopsticks, originally Soram wanted to promote chopsticks, but they were not used to it, and Fia also said that a group of people who used chopsticks to eat directly in a pot were too dirty, which made Soram unable to refute what he said.
"Of course! We welcome it too late. "How could Maris refuse a priest to join, I was a little surprised just now, but I didn't expect them to encounter such a good thing.
Pastor Yay! Definitely the teammate that any adventurer dreams of, and there are definitely not too many teammates who can resist and fight.
To illustrate, in addition to being a wet nurse, the priest of this world can also be used as a heavy armor warrior, because many priests can use martial arts. Don't look at Teemo's age, but his strength is definitely not bad, he is already a level 9 priest, oh no, today he just got the divine grace, and he is already level 10.
"Oooh, for the sake of our new teammates, let's toast!" Sim was more direct, directly picking up the wine glass to celebrate, for him, Teemo had already known them, and now he had joined their adventure party, of course, it was worth celebrating, as for the rest, he didn't care so much.
Solam and Fia were naturally very happy, especially Fia, who was originally a believer in the God of Dawn, and now that there was a priest of the God of Dawn in the team, of course she was overjoyed.
Just when everyone was happy, suddenly someone knocked on the door, Maris put down the wine glass and ran to open the door, and when he opened the door, he found that it was Harris.
"Harris? Why did you come to us at this time? Maris let Harris in, and helped him take off his thick coat, which had a stove in the house, so he didn't need to wear an overcoat.
"What? If you're not welcome, I'll go," Harris gestured to walk out.
"Don't, you're a security captain, if you can come to us, of course we welcome it." Maris could see that Harris was joking, and quickly pulled him back with a smile, "Have you eaten, if you don't, eat with us." ”
Hearing this, Harris walked to the dining table satisfied, "Yo! Yes, eat the stew, come and get me some, I'm dying of hunger. With that, he found a chair and sat down.
Fia went to the back kitchen to help him get another piece of cutlery, and Harris was not polite, picked up the cutlery and began to eat it in a big gulp, it seemed that he was really hungry.
Seeing that Harris was eating so violently, Maris quickly poured a glass of wine and handed it to him, "I said, you haven't eaten for a day, otherwise, how can you be hungry like this, you slow down, and no one is robbing you, come and drink something, slowly, eating too quickly is not good for the stomach." ”
Harris took the wine and dried it in one gulp, "Whew! It's a good wine. You're right, I haven't eaten all day today, and I'm starving. ”
"What are you...?"
"Don't talk about it, I've been a bunch of bad things lately, and I finally came back today, and as soon as I arrived at the police station, Master Cruise pulled me to discuss it all afternoon, and I didn't even eat lunch." Harris poured another glass of wine for himself and said.
"Is this something big happening? For those who are missing? "Maris has a lot of friends, so he is very well informed, and he has known about this for a long time.
"No, it's a lot more than that, but it's actually a good thing for you."
"A good thing?" Mares was a little weird.
"Don't guess, give, your reward, Lord Cruise sent someone to the forest to really find the ogre tribe." As he spoke, Harris took a gem from his fanny pack and handed it to Mareth. "Lord Cruise thought it was too troublesome to give the gold coins, so he gave him a gem, saying that it was worth more than 500 gold coins."
Mares took the gem, but instead of being happy, she asked worriedly, "Isn't Narok Town dangerous?" ”
"Who said it wasn't, just for this matter, Lord Cruise discussed with me for a long time, he wanted the surrounding villages to come to the town in advance, and in the afternoon he discussed with me how to allocate manpower."
