Leader

" See that is how we do it." The little boy explained. " Who wants to try? I will warn you that you are not allowed to make any mistakes.

One of the girls around six years of age raised her hand.

" I will do it." She said it seemed a fun thing to do. " I had seen Ms Ila Stitch my clothes, it's similar to that."

She started, in the beginning, she had a little problem but soon she adopted. Everyone was amazed. " Hehe, I got it." She said.

Some other boys and girls also started to do it, Including him, the crying boy and the girl, there were five more people who were doing this assignment.

They were able to finish doing this within half a day and were overjoyed at this achievement.

~ They seem fine.

The voice also approved of the work. Everything was done as demanded.

In the evening, the black-haired boy and the Caretaker left the orphanage. They were taking the assignment given to them to Myler.

They reached the place where Myler's shop was, the shop was big and it had all kinds of household decorative items such as carpets and lanterns, and some normal use items.

Myler invited them and checked the things.

" It's great, you pass," Myler said. " How many can you make every day."

" I think twice the amount we made today."

" That's alright with me, I will give you this week's material. Return it by the end of the week. Here's the payment for this lot 60 copper coins." Myler said and gave them the payment.

The boy smiled at her because instead of the caretaker she handed it to the boy. The bag full of sixty coppers was not heavy at all for him.

~Give this to the caretaker, he will keep it safe.

He agreed with the voice and gave the money to the caretaker.

...----------------...

" Everyone, This is the food you will always get as long as you contribute with this work. Every child who is above the age of 7 will do it and if there is anyone else who wants to do it then they can also do it." The caretaker explained. 8 children were above that age, the crying boy and the black-haired boy who was going to work.

They had received more than enough food for everyone, The bread was fresh and softer compared to what they ate in the past. A girl raised her hand to say something.

" I want more, I worked the most."

" You already have received more than enough why do you want more." The caretaker asked.

" They should receive less, they were playing while we were working."

" You are right." The caretaker said as he took one bread from everyone who didn't work and who was above the age of 7. The older children except for the girl didn't work at all.

" Here, take this." The caretaker said.

" Uwa! why mine?" A boy cried.

" You will get it from tomorrow if you work with them."

" I will but don't take it today." The boy said. He was the only one protesting, others were just watching how this would go.

" Even so, You will get it from tomorrow, I will see, every one of you above the age of 7 must make 60 of these."

" If there is anyone who didn't make enough will receive only 2."

The kids quickly started to eat, they were now determined to work even the ones that were just thinking of having a free ride.

The black hair boy winked at the girl on the success of thier plan.

' It worked.'

~ Hehe, What did I say?

The situation was all planned by them.

...----------------...

" Okay, This is enough." The boy said as he counted everyone's work one by one, among the total 25 children 14 volunteered to work. The boy had persuaded them saying that there will be much better food to eat if they also work.

He employed everyone in doing some minor tasks and the most important thing was that he wasn't advised by the voice this time.

~ Hehe, You did well.

' Hey, this is not enough. I think we are still lacking a lot of things. When I walked into the town there were many things I saw, people were selling different kinds of food, their clothes were much better than us and their houses as well.'

~ You are right. It's good that you are not satisfied with just this. You have me so you can achieve whatever you want in the world, right now you have four blessings. I can give a total of ten blessings for now but this is not easy, your body is not strong enough we will need you to work hard.

' Blessing, I do not need that, I need money.' The boy still didn't understand much about blessings, he didn't ask either.

~ No, only money is not enough. You need strength, I can give you that.

' Okay, what will I do by becoming strong.'

~ Protect what is yours, gain what you want. Everything is achievable if you have power.

' I want to ask something. Why do you want me to become strong?'

~ I never thought you will ask this question this early because your mindset is still that of a child. I will tell you when I want to.

The boy only had one goal for now which was to improve his life and others' life. He was sitting and watching the children in the room playing.

The caretaker was watching him carefully,

' What is he thinking? Probably about the food, I think he is not going to be satisfied with just a little better. This child will surely change everything here, I wonder what would become of him as he grows.'

He considered him the leader of the children and was proud of raising the boy. He had watched him grow and had always secretly cared about the well being of the child. Thinking about the future brought a big smile to his face.
