[Kiserre's orphanage]
[Khamishah point of view]
Kucin, Anjin and Manu, the three kids (a black cat girl, a golden retriever boy and a human boy), all three of them was once under the care of this black cat lady right here, as her adopted children. They're just like any other normal family if you ask me, minus the fact that she's taking care of kid from different races, and not to mention, all alone as she was still not married during that time
You would think when she said the same thing happen and I rescued her before mean that she got harassed by a group of old follower, by no, it was a group of true beastman group that harassed her. The group didn't have any problem with Kucin and Anjin, but with Manu, and since thing got heated up that time as she was trying to defend the three children all alone, I couldn't save one of the children, and thus, the human boy die, being slammed hard into a rock by those despicable group. The scream of a mother losing her child that time, it wakes me up several times from my sleep, and it takes me six months to stop seeing it completely from my dream. And now
"So, the pair cat and dog S rank adventure, Kucin and Anjin, is you kids?" [Priest C]
"True, but they have been so busy lately that they forgot to pay me a visit" [Black cat lady]
"Sigh... I'll scold them for you the next time" [Khamishah]
"Oh, it's fine. They're busy after all" [Black cat lady]
"So busy that they didn't know their mother had been caught and enslaved in an international crisis?" [Khamishah]
"..." [Black cat lady]
I have to make sure that I scold them severely next time I meet them. They just got the S rank title, thus I can empathize them being busy, but not this busy. Then again, I am an orphan myself back then with no other responsibilities, so that's why I can quickly climb the ladder and become an SS rank adventure. If anything, maybe I should ask Motra to scold them. He's/She's a noble, and S rank adventure as well as a close aid to Beast King Leogris, so he/she can give a better scolding
(Still, if I'm not mistaken, they're tasked to find about the two traitors of the demon kingdom, and those two traitors did involved back then, so...) [Khamishah]
Did something happen to them? In term of power, individually, they're weaker than Ash, but the two of them combined can give Ash a run for his money, so I find it almost unbelievable that something happens to them. Almost, as there are cases where an S rank adventure goes missing only to be found out they're in trouble
"Wah, Wah, Wah" [Miriam]
"There, there. I'll feed you once more, don't cry" [Black cat lady]
"Men, boys, get out now!" [Nun C]
As the guys get out of the room, the black cat lady here ask me
"Mrs Saga, can I... adopt this kid?" [Black cat lady]

An angel, an angel has descend from heaven and visit us early in the morning. A cute red hair angel that is nice even to a brute and rude person like me.
"Thank you so much for teaching me how to use this weapon Ash" [Rumia]
"You're welcome" [Ash]
Her sweet voice, and her sweet smile, it's refreshing, unlike a certain blondie red dress princess
"How rude!" [Diana]
This story is posted elsewhere by the author. Help them out by reading the authentic version.
"Yup, so unlike a certain someone" [Ash]
"Gerr! Sometime, you really are way too rude!" [Diana]
"Yeah yeah" [Ash]
"Ash, you can't say like that to the princess. She's working hard for your sake and for the sake of other, the least you can do is to not give her any more trouble" [Rumia]
"Right. I wouldn't do that. Thank you for the advice" [Ash]
So unlike a certain princess that I come to know from day 1 of my new life
"Ohh! You're so dead!" [Diana]
Taking a prototype pistol, she quickly uses it to shoot a magic bullet toward me. While it's dangerous, it actually pretty damn impressive how effortlessly she handle a foreign weapon. Still
"See! How come you blame me for thinking like that!" [Ash]
"Then stop being so rude all the time!" [Diana]
"You two, you two really are close" [Rumia]
""We aren't!!"" [Ash, Diana]
Well, at least her smile heal this wounded heart and soul, as a result of getting work to the bone by her. Then again, I couldn't thanks Diana enough for all she has done for us, but shooting me suddenly is way uncalled for! I'm just glad her little brother here doesn't copy that action just now
"Mrs Saintess, are you gonna be our big sister?" [Charlotte]
"Why do you ask that?" [Rumia]
"Brother Ash will marry Princess, but I also like Mrs Saintess here" [Charlotte]
""No!!"" [Ash, Diana]
"Elder sister, with him?" [Zaidi]
(On one hand, I'll love Princess Diana become our big sister, but Mrs Saintess here isn't that bad at all) [Kara]
(Love triangle. A commoner, a princess, and a saintess. This sound like a nice romance novel) [Alice]
Well, as much as I have a huge crush on her, I think it's better for me not to indulge much into it. Since my priority right now are those twelve, plus, she reminded me of Rafiah too much. Both are natural cutie and naturally oblivious to that matter
(Good, even I don't think you're good enough for her) [Goddess Achalasia]
(Not you too!) [Ash]
Well, since Goddess Achalasia say that herself...
"Ehh..." [Ash]
"Something wrong?" [Qis]
"Rumia, you said that the goddess guide you to come here right?" [Ash]
"That, I did" [Rumia]
"And you can communicate with the goddess right?" [Ash]
"It's an open secret by this point, but yes" [Rumia]
"By any chance, did she mention something about homework?" [Ash]
"How, don't tell me, you too!" [Rumia]
Since her being here means that I can easily communicate with Goddess Achalasia without the need of special medium like dream or in a holy place, is it possible for me to communicate with God of Death and ask him something. The only other times this happen outside said conditions is back at Malsia where we met the orphans, and that was most likely because of the diamond carved statue of her, which basically radiating holy aura all over the place
(That's still your homework. It's possible, but he wouldn't answer any of your questions) [Goddess Achalasia]
"Oh come on!" [Ash]
"?" [Other]
Well, whatever. Not like I hit a major block in resurrecting Linda, but...
"Rumia, Diana, Qis, Alice, and Elise, can you come here for a bit" [Ash]
"Brother Ash, don't tell me..." [Elise]
"Well, I see no harm right now, plus, a saintess ought to know a thing or two, am I right" [Ash]
"Is this about your suspicious activity in front of Linda's grave?" [Diana]
"What actually you have been doing with Elise all this time?" [Qis]
"Just how did you know about that, but yeah" [Ash]
No doubt about it, must be Alaric and co doing. Well, I can just tell them about it
""""!!!!"""" [Diana, Rumia, Qis, Alice]
"Can you spare some time tonight?" [Ash]
"Will do!" [Diana]
"Others?" [Ash]
~Nod~
Guess that's good then.
"Grandpa Claude!" [Savel]
"Welcome back!" [Karon]
"I'm back, and the stalls issue have been settle" [Claude]
"You really are a reliable butler, Mr Claude" [Diana]
"Mr Claude..." [Rumia]
"May I help you, O saintess?" [Claude]
Claude and Rafiah here have been going around the neighborhood helping taking care of the preparation for debutante party this morning in my stead, he just comes back and thus, this is the first time Rumia and Claude meet
"No, I just remember about an old elf that I acquaintance with. He did tell me he had a mansion in Estel before, and had a reliable butler name Claude. Surely, it must be coincidence" [Rumia]
"Wait a minute..." [Ash]
"Could it be..." [Rafiah]
"Is his name, by any chance, Filvisar?" [Claude]
"IT IS!" [Rumia]
Claude's master, Filvisar, is still alive!?
