I finished the daily quota for today and queued to get my daily food distribution. In this cold winter, the duchy generously gave the workers a free warm coat and boots. It was such bliss.
'Grand Duke Harion is really a kind man…' I pondered about Grand Duke. He never called me again after that moment. He hadn't even visited this place for a while. The current boss who controlled the business under Grand Duke Harion's order said that Grand Duke was busy with other business, so he couldn't visit us.
I walked alongside Jon to his house. Today was pretty cold, so the cook gave us warm bread and a seasoned fish. Yes, a seasoned fish. The deliciously salty fish tingled my nose and made my mouth watered.
We entered his house and saw Lisa and Merry waiting for us. The winter was harsh, and food was scarcer, we ate so little and might not even be able to provide ourselves if the duchy didn't hand us free dinner everyday.
