"I'm different. If it's you, I'll probably give it to you?"

"Should..." Zanze looked at him blankly, unable to figure out what was going on for a long time.

But Ash didn't answer. He patted her head, stood up, and walked out of the ruins.

This made her subconsciously reach out her hand, trying to keep him: "Wait, wait a minute! Master Ash, are you leaving now? But your injury..."

"I suddenly remembered that the little animals at home haven't been fed yet. You can clean up the scene properly... Of course, it's almost done. Anyway, a professional construction team will be here soon."

Ash, who just remembered that he was in a hurry to go out and forgot to prepare dinner money for Philen, only left a meaningless farewell, and he was already having a headache. How should the destroyed part of this branch be rebuilt?

In addition, how to avoid the need for secondary expansion as much as possible is also a key project he is thinking about.

The three-no loli of unknown age was still sitting there, just staring at his back blankly.

..........................

In the temporary residence in the city.

When Ash came back, he saw at a glance that the little girl was holding a soaked rag and busy cleaning the room.

The bedding that had been placed for a while had been washed by her and was now drying in the courtyard.

The weather in the north is not as good as in the south. The girl's tender hands had already turned red, but she worked hard to do things beyond her responsibilities without saying a word.

"It's like an adopted child who is afraid that he will not do well, so he forces himself to work hard, actively perform, and want to show his value..." Ash couldn't help but sigh as he watched Philen's hard work.

And the actual situation is obviously not much different.

Although he couldn't hear his mumbling clearly, Philen also heard the voice and looked up subconsciously.

"Welcome back, Lord Ash?! - What happened to you? Did you encounter a robber?"

Only then did he see his figure clearly, and noticed that he was dirty and bloody as if someone had hit his head with a hammer, and he ran over in panic.

"It's just a bully." Thinking of Celia's smug face, although he was a little depressed, he didn't care about it anymore. However, Philen's worried expression made him subconsciously add: "... I'm almost used to it. It's okay. Don't worry about it."

"A bully?? Just? Used to it?" Philen grasped the key point of this sentence, but he wiped the blood from his forehead nonchalantly: "It's really okay. It happens often.".

This casual attitude made Philen unable to control himself and shouted: "-This is not a problem, right?! I have to find the guards immediately... No, I have to go to the church first...!"

"Speaking of which, I forgot to leave you dinner money. Sorry, I'll give you more at one time next time. If you don't have enough, come to me again."

Compared with Philen's nervousness, Ya Xiuzhen, who had long been accustomed to fighting, didn't care about it at all, and took out two gold coins from his pocket with guilt.

But compared to his indifference, Fen felt an indescribable emotion surge in her heart because he was still thinking about her and didn't care about her figure at this time. She felt warm in her heart, but at the same time, she pushed him out with the urge to cry:

"-Now is not the time to care about these things! The blood is dripping again, hurry up to the church!"

"Ah, don't push me, I will go, but..."

"No but! Please act quickly."

......

Amid the noisy urging, Ash was forcibly pushed to the church.

And that night, Ash's quilt smelled of the long-lost sunshine, and there was a little head next to him.

The day after the first night, Fen was actually a little shy at first, and basically didn't dare to look into his eyes.

But after that night, although she was still restless and couldn't fall asleep, as long as Ash held her hand, Fen would feel a warm feeling in her heart, and felt at ease for no reason.

After doing housework for most of the day, the exhausted girl basically fell asleep on his shoulder.

Probably after the first night, the relationship between the two became a little closer, and on this day, the relationship between the two seemed to be... one step closer?

To be honest, Ash was not very sure, he just touched Philen's hair, closed his eyes and let the fatigue drag him into sleep.

..........................

..........................

In the blink of an eye, Philen has lived in this magic city for more than half a year.

During this period, Ash went out early and came back late every day, presiding over the reconstruction of the Magic Association branch, and soaking in Celia's library by the way, and then went out for a few days to fight with Livale, who was known as the bloody military god.

After all, if Livale, a berserker, didn't fight him for too long, he would probably run out to fight others for no reason, and then... it would probably be slaughtered together.

"You can go to the street to eat something appropriately. The security of this country is very good. As long as you don't leave the city, you don't have to worry about it."

Ash said this, after appropriately increasing the amount of money he gave to Fearon... Although he also hired a maid to take care of her, it became Fearon who took care of the house without even realizing it.

Although she is only six years old, she is much more responsible than Ash who doesn't care about these things at all.

One day, when the morning light woke up Fearon gently, she rubbed her eyes and stretched a lot.

The soft bed made her sleep very comfortably, because Ash had specially taken her to pick out the mattress on the street. It was basically the same as at home in the past, and she could almost sleep peacefully without Ash holding his hand.

Although this made her somewhat lonely, she didn't want to cause too much trouble to Ash, so she never showed anything.

And when she walked out of the room, of course she couldn't see any familiar figure, even though it was still early and even the maid who lived nearby hadn't come to work yet.

"...Master Ash is really busy with his work." Fearon reached out and touched his bed, but she could no longer feel any warmth, which made her unable to hide her disappointment.

But soon she patted her face with both hands, cheered up and washed her face. After eating what the maid prepared in the morning, she hurried to school.

Her parents also found a magic teacher for her, so she also has a corresponding magic foundation. Now she is naturally studying directly in the magic academy in the magic city.

Recently she made two new friends at school...but they often quarreled.

"But the teacher said that being able to quarrel all the time is proof of a good relationship... Master Ash and I have never quarreled. Is this a bad relationship?"

The sun had just risen from the horizon, and the air on the streets in the early morning was very cold. Fearon held his hands in front of him and breathed, but he unconsciously fell into thinking.

But soon she stopped thinking about it, because in front of her, the girl with orange-haired twin tails and the girl with blue eyes and silver hair appeared noisily in her sight, making her couldn't help but reveal her A smile:

"Connet, Rabine, good morning."

"Ah, Feilun! - Hurry up and hold her down for me! This guy grabbed my hair again! My hair is about to be broken...I will definitely kill her this time!" The orange-haired twin-tailed girl Kang Ni shouted excitedly.

But Rabine pushed the silver-haired girl away unceremoniously and showed a decent smile: "Good morning, Philon, the weather is really nice today."

"Yes, it's a good day to lay out your quilt."

"Drying in bed...?" Rabine subconsciously raised her head, looked at the blue sky, and couldn't help but agree: "Indeed, but..."

"But normally, shouldn't the weather be suitable for playing?" Kang Ni couldn't help but interrupt.

Feilun didn't think much and said subconsciously as a matter of course: "Because Lord Ash likes sun-dried quilts."

"Master Ash...?" Kang Ni tilted his head sharply: "Speaking of which, I have heard you say it before, it seems to be someone from your family, right? Why is it an adult?"

"This..." Fearon suddenly looked a little troubled, not knowing how to explain this.

But Rabine didn't even blink, and kicked Conne away with one kick:

"Don't dig into other people's family affairs. This is the school's rule, right? Did you forget it so quickly?"

"——Wow! You, you bastard! Of course I...of course I remember! But there's no need to kick someone like this, right?!"

Kang Ni was so disgraced from the fall that her ponytails were a little dirty, so even though she realized that she was a little weak in asking questions that she shouldn't have, she still kept complaining on the ground.

But Feilun knelt down to help her up at this time, thinking about the relationship between himself and Ash while thinking about Kang Ni's gratitude.

However, it really is an adoption relationship, right? But in reality, if you don’t call me an adult, what should you call me? Grandpa Zeng? grandfather? uncle....?

From the outside, it's obviously not that level, but there's something wrong with calling him brother.

And this problem has been bothering her until she arrived at the academy and the real school started. She was finally put down and looked seriously at the teacher who was demonstrating magic not far away.

"...I have to work hard to grow up like this...No one will be able to bully Master Ash!"

Whenever he recalled the appearance of his bruised and bloody head, Feilun felt a sadness in his heart and whispered silently, secretly forcing himself to work hard.

Because——she wants to be someone who can protect Ash.

Compared with her worries, this is her biggest dream now.

............................

By the time Ash returned home after a busy day...it was already completely dark and it was already late at night.

When he stepped lightly into the courtyard, he noticed that the living room was still bright.

When I entered the living room, I noticed that there was an oil lamp burning in the living room, and there was a small figure lying on the desk. There was also a book on the basics of magic beside it.

"...Have you been waiting for me for a long time, or are you tired of reading?" Regarding this point, Ya Xiu was also a little unsure, but when he picked it up smoothly, he couldn't help but sigh: "But It really won’t work if it goes on like this, right?”

Compared to Feilun, who has been thinking about how to repay the kindness of raising her, Ash has been thinking about who should be more suitable to raise her.

It's not that he is heartless, but considering all aspects, combined with the situation that has been repeated countless times tonight, he is convinced that it is better to leave it to someone else...at least better than himself.

Because as time goes by, he also finds that in addition to providing food, clothing, shelter and transportation, he also faces the problem of providing for the other party's old age and emotional value.

Although he is reluctant to let her go after getting along for a while, it is better than raising her up and then taking care of her in her old age.

And this is also the advice from the previous experience - Celia.

In addition, he doesn't have so much time to play with the child, even if he hires a maid to take care of her, it is not appropriate.

Because... the state of the elders being away all the time is not a left-behind child, right? From the perspective of physical and mental health, this is definitely not good.

As the last orphan among his friend's descendants, he feels that he has an obligation to give her a suitable and warm family, rather than a cold room and being a left-behind child.

As a demon who grew up alone, he can understand similar experiences to some extent.

After all, if we actually consider the growth environment of the demons, no matter what the nature of the demons should be, what else can they become if they don’t grow up like beasts?

Even if humans grow up alone in the wild, they probably won’t be much different... Therefore, education and companionship are really important.

At least, that’s what Ash thinks.

The Buried Flyllian·Thousand Years to the Present: Chapter 69 Parallel Lines of Understanding·The First Gift·Visiting Haita (4K)

The importance of the growth environment after birth, if we take the demons as an example, Aura is also a good example.

Shulahart probably had a good growth environment, so he could become a rare person who cares about others in the demons where individualism is rampant, and even willing to sacrifice for the collective interests.

Of course... How Shulahart actually grew up to be a demon who cares about others and is even willing to sacrifice and dedicate himself is a bit hard to study, but he just has that feeling.

If Ash were to raise the child himself, he would have no time or energy to take care of it, and he would even have to worry about Fern being influenced by someone like him.

Unfortunately, there were really no normal people in his circle of friends, and most of his friends were dead. If he asked Aura to help find the child, it would be a tragedy if he was not careful... At least now he was completely worried about Aura.

Most of the nobles in this kingdom were basically controlled by Aura. Even if he forced her to take care of the child, it would be a disaster if she lost control.

Therefore, after thinking about it, after more than half a year of worrying and searching, he still did not find a suitable person in this magic city, so he decided to go to Haita for help.

Although he was a little worried before, whether Haita was still alive, he had someone investigate and found that Haita had retired and was even surprisingly alive and healthy.

As a highly respected bishop of the Holy City and a former savior hero, his reputation would definitely be much higher, and the people he knew would be more serious and reliable.

Of course, the option given to Haita himself was rejected by him at once. After all, it was hard to say when that drunkard would die, and he was also not at ease with the child.

If Xin Meier was still alive, he would be the best candidate in terms of character and personality, but it was a pity that the goddess didn't like him very much, and he was the first to die in the team.

".... Although our fate is limited, it is really a pity, but I will definitely help you check it, now you can sleep peacefully."

He put Feilun on the bed gently, and covered her with a quilt, and then gently stroked her hair that was gradually regaining its luster, and secretly made up his mind-even if it took one or two years, he had to find a way for Haita to find a suitable home for this child.

..........................

The next morning.

The warm sunlight sprinkled on his face, making Feilun drowsily open his heavy eyes. Under the urging of the morning sun, he was rarely lazy. He stretched and squirmed on the bed for a while, and then rubbed his sleepy eyes and climbed up.

".....Today, Master Ash must be away again..." She habitually patted her face, then sat by the bed and murmured with a little loneliness, but...

"No, I am still here today."

"Hey? - Master Ash?!"

She looked in the direction of the voice in panic, but saw that the always missing Ash was sitting at her desk, flipping through the magic book that she couldn't understand at all.

This made her stand up quickly, tidy up her messy hair and pajamas, and bowed her head politely: "Good morning... Good morning, Master Ash, is there anything going on today?"
