Under the dark night sky, the brightly lit Herbert Manor is particularly beautiful. Theodore Herbert, Alice, and the Orc Girl are sitting at the same table enjoying dinner. The orc girl took the fork and stuffed the whole steak into her mouth without even cutting it. Theodore and Alice looked at the people in a daze, and they really couldn't think about how long it had been since they had eaten so much. And Alan put his hands behind his back, and the smile on his face remained the same.

"Eat slowly, no one will rob you. Theodore waved his hand, and the servants behind him went from the kitchen to fetch more food and put it in front of the orc girl.

"What's your name?" asked Alice

"Hmm...... My name is Christine and I'm from the Great Forest of Geb. Christine said as she chewed on her food

"Roar...... Geb Forest. Then you're an orc group, and you shouldn't be here. The Great Gab Forest is 108,000 miles away. Alan's white eyebrows began to furrow, and her eyes narrowed into slits. Christine put down the fork in her hand, a sad look on her face

"I'm a cat of the orc clan, and I lived carefree with my fellow people. But one day, humans claiming to be Codiano broke into the Geb Forest. attacked our territory, and other groups of our companions were attacked one after another. Many races perished because they were not hostile to the species. And we young beasts are to be sold farther away into slavery to serve humanity. I escaped from the wagon, but I was the only one who escaped. ”

With that, Christine covered her eyes with her hands and began to sob. For Christine, that day was like the end of the world. His parents, brothers, and friends fell in front of him one by one, but they were powerless to resist. It has to be held in a cage by humans, ready to accept a cruel fate. In fact, Theodore Herbert's mood fluctuated a little after hearing these words, and Theodore, who had lived in a village manor for half his life, felt like a frog at the bottom of a well at this time. There are so many things going on outside of Custer Village, which is completely different from the ideal world that I had in mind. But Alan Hillman doesn't think so, and it's no surprise to him in his old age. Once when he was fighting the orcs, Eren also did things that violated humanity. Fragments of these memories gradually reveal themselves in the massacre of villages and so on, but there is no way for Allen to do so. Because that's war.

"Why don't you just stay here!" Theodore slapped the table suddenly, then looked at Christine with a smile. Christine replied with a puzzled look, for Christine this human was grateful to be able to treat herself to such a luxurious dinner. But now they want to take her in, which makes her very puzzled.

"That's right, if you live here. You won't be hurt by those bad guys anymore, and the people in the village are all good. You can have new partners. Alice chimed

"My name is Theodore Herbert and her name is Alice. And this uncle is my housekeeper named Alan. You can live here and we can do all sorts of things together. How's that, Christine!" Theodore stood up and walked up to Christine, smiling and holding out his hand to Christine. Alan just shook her head and smiled, and Alice looked at Christine expectantly.

Christine's eyes were on Theodore Herbert's cheek, and she felt a dazzling and warm light shining on her at this moment, accustomed to the darkness. She hadn't had this feeling for a long time, for too long, too long. Ever since the Great Gab Forest was attacked, all but the beating and scolding of the humans has been starvation. Children who were imprisoned like themselves died because of illness in addition to being beaten to death by humans. Being able to live until now can only say that his parents have been blessing him in the spirit of heaven, and now he is facing a new dawn. Christine was flattered. Christine put her hand on Theodore's hand, and Theodore clenched the man's hand excitedly.

After the meal, because it was too late. Alice stayed here for one night. Take a shower in the bathroom with Christine and change into new clothes. Christine's originally numb expression gradually began to smile, and she was relieved. Alice is like two sisters, while Theodore Herbert and Alan Hillman stand on the balcony.

"Alan, is the outside world really like this?" Theodore asked as he turned to Alan, who didn't say it directly. Just nodded slightly, Theodore sighed after getting the answer, "If I can, I want to go to the outside world to see." Instead of staying here all the time and being a frog at the bottom of a well. ”

"Yes, if it's a young master, there shouldn't be any problem. After all, that's what the lord expects. Alan narrowed his eyes, stood up and walked away with his back to Theodore. When Theodore turned to look at Alan's back, he realized that Eren was so old. When he was young, Alan still had jet-black and shiny hair and a straight chest. But now, it's slightly bent, and my hair is starting to turn gray. The relationship between Alan and Theodore Herbert has long ceased to be a master and servant, and Alan has long regarded Theodore as his own child. And Theodore also considers him to be his father. If Alan is gone one day, he must be heartbroken.

- Dark World

"Hey, why after the fight with you. How much strength does it get after using the spell?" Theodore shouted as he stood beneath Clara, confused.

"Of course you're here for you, you idiot. The magic in your body has been repelling me, and I can't get a good rest. Therefore, I want to replace this power first and let you use my power. I'll talk about it when I'm used to it," Clara sat on a branch, flipping through a book in her hand, looking intently. No wonder Theodore wondered why the increase in strength during the fight against the bear was not exactly the same level as before. According to the previous use of Horace's abilities, it should seem a little more exhausting. But now that this feeling has been completely eliminated, it is even more powerful. Is this the strength of the dragon, but it's really exciting.

In the room, Christine had changed into new clothes. And the previous stain has also been cleaned. At this time, the two of them are lying on the same bed and talking about some topics.

"Alice and Theodore have a very close relationship," Christine suddenly asked someone such a question, Alice's face turned red all of a sudden, and she denied it extremely, "No!

"Roar...... Well, but he's a good guy. It's completely different from the humans I've seen before, and it's very gentle. "Christine was lying flat.

"Ah......h That's true, it's been like this since I was a child. So gentle, though sometimes cheap. But he was always good to each one and gave the same hope. ”

"Whoa, you understand. And say you're not!"

"Not really!"

In another room, Theodore was eating bananas and reading a book. Suddenly he sneezed and wiped his nose with his fingers, "Is anyone talking about me?"
