"**The Gods will always watch us, and guide us for peace"
"What is this gibberish message from the Pope itself?"
"In this world... Life means Survival**."
I was just a normal girl born from a normal family in a small village in the Kingdom of Kiloeses. My family's ancestors were from the eastern country called Empire of Oritsu.
In a village that don't even have a chief will always attacked by monsters without the blessing from the church so my father was one of the warriors that protect us from those evil beings.
Then one day... The group of orges, weeks that have been in the sight of the Kingdom attacked us.. the kingdom simply ignored us and let our people die.
My father and the other warriors help the villagers to run away from Death. While in process of escaping, my mother was caught by a group of three orges. I can't do anything than trembling in fear... I watch my mother's clothes thorn off by those monsters and father came to save mother, but... mother already killed herself.. father shout that even the other orges felt his anger and begun to attack him.
Father was able to defeat 4 of them and was knocked out by one, I push father in fear of losing him too, and I... lost my left arm.. father quickly stand up and fight the orges and ran away whilst carrying me.
The village was burnt to ashes by those monsters... father carried me till we reach the deep forest of kalligoese and gave me first aid of herbal medicines.
Father cried in front of me.. The man who always smiling because he's grateful to have a peaceful life with his family burst crying infront of his dying daughter..
"**I... I have begun to think... why.. why do we have to suffer like this? Why didn't the Kingdom defend us and gave us a prior notice that a group of orges is heading to our village? Why mother died? Why the man who always stood up and look for the better future for his family is crying? Why am I dying?"
WhY? wHY? WHy**?
WhY? w**Hy? Wh****y? WHY
*WHY***..!?
"The Gods will @/₩ăYs watch us and &Ū!Đ€ us"
Father eventually continue to walk while carrying me and noticed something.. a gem that have a color of emerald, it was a magic stone for healing... He immediately picked it up and used it to heal my left arm... the injury dried like it wasn't there in the first place. He hugs me tightly and walk again.
We were able to survive in a week but... Father died of hunger.. He wasn't able to eat much because of me. I buried his corpse near the lake and a the bracelet that my mother gave me in my 3rd year of birthday... I cried until I faint because of hunger.
The next day I woke up and drank some water from the lake and noticed a pack of dire wolves approaching me.. My instincts told me that I need to grab the sword and the herbs my father left behind and run away.
I ran out of the forest and lead me to an open field.. as I look straight forward I saw the big walls of the Kingdom.
Nameless
[This... This damn kingdom.. if... if only just...]
I continue to walk as my mind became blank because of insanity... I don't know why the kingdom ignored us.. is it because we don't have a village chief? we properly pay the tax right? then... Why?
My feet suddenly stops on its own and lead me to another route... inside the forest.
my mind is still blank and I continue to walk.
A week and a week later... I arrived at the town-owned by the Kingdom of Epherieq, this town looks pretty worn out and the people have dull emotion that makes it more difficult to walk in the centre.
In the past weeks, I've been fighting and gathering herbs in the forest... while at it I learn how to use magic. Mother told me back then that when I reach the age of five I'll be able to form a contract with spirits roaming around.
Next month I'll be turning 5 until then I'll be able to learn more magic... I reached the town's guildhall where I sell all the herbs I gathered and monster meats.
The guild receptionist and the other members of the guild stared at me... Father taught me that I can give and sell anything valuable to the guild such as... information, monster's valuable parts, wanted criminals and more...
then..? why are they staring at me?
Man
[Young Miss... you can't sell here anything yet because there is an age restriction rule here you know?]
Nameless
[Is there? Father never told me...]
Tyrone
[I forgot to tell my name is Tyrone, wh-]
Guild Receptionist
[Tyrone-san, would you like to sell those in your name for this young lady?]
My surprised that they are kind people left in this world... Tyrone-san look scary but you can't judge people by their appearance...
Tyrone
[Would that be ok young miss?]
Nameless
[It will be a big help.]
Tyrone-san gave me all the money that he receives from the guild and let me seat beside him... In this table, it looks like the people around me were Tyrone-san's party members.
Tyrone
[I don't see you around here... where are you from? Where are your parents?]
Nameless
[I'm from a small village in the out risk of the Kindom of Kiloeses.]
Women
[That's far from here.]
A woman who looks like in her 30's suddenly joined our conversation... Tyrone-san introduced his party. The women who join us in our talk is Juvile-san, the guy in the blue in her left is Quinao-san, and from her right side is Bruk-san.
Tyrone
[So, where are your parents?]
Nameless
[...]
Juvile
[I guess we shouldn't ask more about that question.]
I quietly leave the table while the sun is still on the sky.
Tyrone
[That kid have it taught huh?]
I got out of the guild and started looking for a place to stay... my current money is 1 small gold coin, 8 big silver coin, 78 small silver coin and 204 small copper coin.
Some of this money was the things I found along the way, some of it is from an adventurer and people's corpse.
I bumped into a person. and he quickly turns left and I continue to walk forward and realize one thing... my bag of silver and copper coins was stolen by that guy. I swiftly followed the guy and turn left... it was a dead-end alley.
The good thing is that the small gold coin I have is in my pocket, I left the town to sleep in the forest.
The next day I read the books I found from a wrecked carriage by some merchant? It has an advance knowledge about magic stones. It appears that there also a helpful magic stone that can replace my left hand.
{Spirit of the wind} It's the name of a magic stone that can manipulate gathered air and you can even feel it.
I began to search for it by asking the townspeople. They said that it's a super rare magic stone that even a prince would kill for it.
I looked at the map that I also found in the wrecked carriage. I immediately saw a marked cave.
It's 2 days away from here, but maybe it's worth trying exploring that cave. I bought a set of clothes from an old lady who's store is selling things at a small price... because it's clothes from the dead people.
3 days have passed then I reached the entrance of the cave... It has a big entrance... just looking at it gave me the chills.
I pulled out my sword and walk inside, I already encountered a dark rabbit a double size of an ordinary rabbit.
Nameless
[You'll be my dinner today.]
This one is taught. It took me 3 minutes before defeating it and when I look back... there is already a group giant black rabbit it has the size of a normal human.
Their blood lust came to me. They were blocking the way back and so I run inside the cave instead...
Nameless
[Why the hell monsters are so strong in this cave...!?]
Time stopped as I look back what are they doing... they're gone, as a relief I let my guard down and take a deep breath.
Nameless
[...]
That was a mistake to do in a cave... don't ever let your guard down... one of them suddenly attack me from behind and cut off my right leg.
I screamed on the top of my lungs, I leaned in the wall and cast a spell... I can feel that the other giant black rabbit let this one go after me... and this one is already thinking at I'm a small fry.
Nameless
[Ice Lance!!]
The rabbit evades my ice lance... little did he know it's two.
Nameless
[You fell for it fool!!]
The other ice lance pierced to its head. I leaned at the wall nearby after our fight then I suddenly fall
Nameless
[Huh..?]
I Immediately shove my sword in the wall but my sword snapped and I continue to fall. In a distance, I can see a magic stone that is smaller than normal...
