“From your appearance and strength, how could you possibly be our guide, Nak?”
Looking at the little beggar in front of him, Reinhart asked with a curious look.
“S-I am from Roscars City, Mr.”
“Hou ..” Reinhart stroking chin. “Then, how can a child who has no strength like you get to Wind Prairie City?”
The young man immediately looked towards the little beggar with a cold gaze.
“S-I went to Wind Prairie City with both parents only, Sir. However .... both of my parents who worked as adventurers died while on the mission.”
“When???”
“Sorry??” The little beggar tilted his head with a puzzled expression.
“When did your parents die, son?”
“T-Three months ago, Mr.”
“Yes ,, living in a city like this for three months is definitely difficult.”
“A-Do you accept me, Sir? Thank k-”
“No.” Reinhart shook his head. “I can't accept you.”
“Eh??? Why, Mister?”
“Although you did memorize the streets and the City of Roscars, but you have not been there for more than three months. That means you have no new information. In fact, you also do not know some news about the changes in the City of Roscars.”
“...”
Dugm!
The little beggar knelt down then banged his forehead against the ground several times, before finally staring towards Reinhart while pleading.
“I beg you, Sir. You don't have to pay for everything. Half ... no! Just pay a third of the money, Mr.”
“Hmmm ..”
Reinhart stared at the small beggar. After a while, he finally said.
“It seems that you really want to be our driver. Well ... more precisely, want to go to Roscars City?”
Reinhart lifted the corner of her lips.
Hearing Reinhart's question, the little beggar was surprised, but soon changed his emotions. Feeling uncomfortable and depressed, she then replied gently.
“Rabate .. I still have relatives in Roscars City. However since I do not have the money to hire adventurers and do not have the means of communication, I cannot go there.
I had heard that there was a group who wanted to go to the City of Roscars. The group had no condition of recruitment based on strength, and only asked for a guide. That means, the group is quite strong and not worried about the attacks of ferocious beasts on the way.”
Reinhart understood that the group the child mentioned was his own group. As it contained some outstanding students and had good backgrounds, they were indeed strong and did not care much about danger.
“Build.”
“Please don't drive me, Sir. Although I can't fight, I can still-”
“Who wants to kick you out? Get up and follow me to the inn.”
“...”
“Let my friends judge you. After all, they are picky. So ... what are you waiting for?”
Wiping away his tears, the boy immediately got up and bowed a few times.
“Thank you, Sir. Thank you ..”
Reinhart shook his head lightly.
“Follow me.”
After saying that, Reinhart walked back towards the inn while being followed by the little beggar.
Arriving at the inn.
The young man immediately called Aiden, Helena, Sophia, and Caterina. They gathered, looking surprised when they saw the little beggar who was behind him.
“Please help her take a shower, and give her one of your clothes, Sophia.”
“Eh??? Fine.”
Sophia was surprised, but ended up nodding lightly.
“Open your eyes, Aiden! This little beggar is a girl.”
“EH??”
Aiden and the little Beggar cried out simultaneously. Aiden looked surprised to find out that the little beggar was a woman. While the little beggar was surprised because Reinhart was able to see and dismantle his identity.
“Don't be surprised. Even if you dress like a man and are young, that doesn't mean I can't see it. Not only me, surely the three girls also know that you are a girl.”
“As Prince Reinhart said.since you entered, we know that you are female.”
Helena added. He glanced at Aiden. Although she is Aiden's fiancee and tries to continue to love the young man, it seems that the girl has been let down several times.
“So, since I don't want the little girl messing up, I want you to help her, Sophia. Can, right?”
“Give it to me, Prince Reinhart.”
“Thank you.”
Sophia nodded happily, then left while being followed by the little girl.
After they left, Reinhart invited the other three to find a seat and talk.
“Really ... I don't understand, Rein. Why did you bring the girl? You reject the girls and the adult charm, do not-don't you-”
“Don't think weird, Aiden. I like girls. I don't like underage girls. So don't spit out a lot of nonsense.”
“Then why are you still determined to take him?”
“First, you guys protest too much so we don't have a professional guide. Second, compared to setting out alone, I think it's better to be with that little girl because she's from Roscars City. Third, I feel sorry for him.
The little girl lost both her parents. He wanted to go back to Roscars City to look for his relatives. I was just planning on helping her because it could be a good mutual relationship. Of course, I also have other reasons that cannot be mentioned.”
“Really. Isn't that girl so suspicious, Rein? He pretended to be a man.”
“Yes. It's suspicious, but I can't blame it either.”
“Eh??? Why?”
“Because she's a girl.”
“...”
Seeing Aiden speechless and clueless, Reihart let out a long sigh before explaining.
“That girl lives in a bad neighborhood. Although it was still in the city, but no one would care about the little beggar.
The problem is, if the little girl is attractive, not only does it not make her better, there must be a lot of bad guys like the local gang targeting her. Although skinny and dirty, in my opinion, the appearance of the girl was indeed quite good. At least, it is worth working as a maid in a castle or castle.”
Hearing Reinhart's words, the other three people were shocked. They did not expect that the young man had such high regard for the little beggar earlier. It is worth mentioning, although not obligatory, almost all the maids in the residence of the nobles, especially the middle and high levels were almost all beautiful.
“Wait? You say, those criminals, they will also attack underage girls?”
“As long as they are beautiful, they definitely do not feel guilty. Moreover, there were even more ruthless people. They were the bad guys who employed slaves. Other than girls, even little boys, as long as have feet and hands ... forced to work for them to starve, even die.”
“Autom!” aiden said with an angry expression.
“That's why, I swear to him if he's careful. After all, the outside world is more cruel than you or even I can imagine.”
“I understand.”
Aiden nodded. He seemed to agree with what Reinhart had said. At that moment, Helena raised her right hand.
“Can I ask, Prince Reinhart?”
“What's up?”
“I understand that you want to help him. However, according to what was taught to me …
Shouldn't we influence a great mission or purpose just because of personal matters, Prince Reinhart?”
Hearing Helena's question, Aiden frowned. Meanwhile, Reinhart replied.
“That's why we're called human, Miss Helena. Also ... Didn't I already say?”
Reinhart lifted the corner of her lips.
“I have my own reasons for choosing it.”
