[Myreni’s POV]
‘I secured a good deal’
While holding Kaiser’s hand, Myreni thought to herself
‘I can’t believe I stumbled upon a Chosen in such a random place’
Myreni looks around. She and Kaiser are in a narrow, winding street where crumbling tenements, with their stained and peeling walls, line the sides. Garbage and refuse pile up in the alleys, casting a foul stench into the perpetually damp and dark streets
‘I was simply strolling through the city when I suddenly felt the power of the aspect being used’ Myreni recalled the moment
‘I was very surprised to find a kid with a stigma on his neck. Those who are chosen often stand out from a young age. Their stigma, in fact, passively increases their Mana pool since birth, Which grants them tremendous power’
‘Why hasn’t anyone noticed him? And What's his life like?’ Myreni's eyes fell upon Kaiser who looked pale and weak. She decides to ask him
“Hey Kaiser, do you have a family?”
Kaiser pauses for a moment before replying.
“I used to have it. But when I was 5 years old, my family faced financial difficulties. So they decided to abandon me”
Kaiser continued with a blank expression
“It doesn't bother me though, as they were never my real family. They only took me in out of pity for a child left on the street”

Hearing Kaiser’s answer, Myreni falls into silence
‘To think he's been surviving alone here since he was 5 is amazing. He must have been incredibly resilient to find a way to stay alive’
‘Okay, first I need to find something to fill up his stomach. Those apples from earlier wouldn’t be enough for him’
Myreni brought Kaiser to the bustling market. The air was filled with the shouts of vendors hawking their wares, the clatter of carts, the hooves of horses, and the chatter of countless shoppers
“Do you want anything? I can buy it for you”
“Grilled skewers”
Kaiser answers without a doubt
Hearing Kaiser's choice, Myreni found him very cute
‘A kid is still a kid’
Myreni held Kaiser's hand and led him to a grilled skewer stall. She then gave him 4 skewers.
She and Kaiser continue to stroll through the busy market. In Myreni’s hand is a skewer that Kaiser has given her
‘Looking at him, I should get him some new clothes’
Kaiser’s clothes are torn, faded, and have holes
"Let's go to that shop"
Myreni points to a luxurious clothing store
“Can we really go to that place?” Kaiser has doubts in his eyes
“Your sister is rich. Don’t worry, come inside” Myreni replies confidently
Inside the luxurious clothing store, Myreni calls a male employee and asks him to bathe Kaiser and dress him in a new set of clothes
Seeing Kaiser’s appearance, The employee shows a displeased expression on his face, but because here, as long as you have money, you can get anything. So he still goes to prepare for Kaiser
After Kaiser leaves, Myreni is left alone
‘I should prepare to introduce him to other people”
