(Maany Corhel Matt)
My name is Maany Corhel Matt.
I wonder how long I have been serving at the orphanage... I can't remember when it started; time seems to have slipped away.
Mother Maressa, you must have gone through a similar period... May your soul rest with the goddess Vantinom.
"Sister Maany! I want more potatoes!" Ilka, wearing clean and simple new clothes, ran up to me with a plate held high in her hands.
"Sure, come here. Let's try to eat as much as you can today." I smiled and scooped potato stew onto Ilka's plate from the large copper pot. Watching her run away happily made me feel inexplicably joyful. From now on, the children in the orphanage wouldn't have to worry about their livelihoods anymore. Perhaps, if we look further ahead, this small Village might even prosper because of it.
A year ago, before Walson left this Village, he left us with a special crop – potatoes. These crops could grow densely even in harsh climates, had high nutritional value, and were relatively easy to cultivate. Although they had the disadvantage of low disease resistance and couldn't be grown continuously on the same land, they could be rotated with wheat to overcome the issue.
This time, Walson's return brought many things to us, and one of them was the new clothes Ilka was wearing. He brought plenty of new clothes, enough to give each child two or three pieces without any problem.
Then, there was the magic hoe... yes, that's what Walson called it.
It could quickly plow the fields, saving a lot of cultivation time. The method was to tap the ground, and miraculously, the soil would turn into well-tended land. So, he used this for farming before... If it gets damaged, it only needs an injection of magic to repair automatically. I've never heard of such technology before... I'm sure Walson must have encountered many things in his journey.
With these items, the labor of the village children would be greatly reduced. Perhaps I should consider providing them with literacy education as well. Those who receive knowledge education will surely have a brighter future.
This hoe is so valuable; it's a truly magical item. I can't imagine its selling price, and yet, he gave it to us for free? Moreover, there are five of them.
Apart from improving the food source, our orphanage also gained a facility for bathing, a small stone house.
Inside, there was a large water pool, and we could use the adjacent water and fire magic to operate it for bathing. It was a bit inconvenient, but it was a good opportunity for the mage children to practice and contribute to others.
The only thing that people found a bit controversial was the renovation of the entire church... the style was quite unusual.
I don't know why Walson insisted on using square-shaped building materials for the refurbishment. Now it looks similar to the secret hut he built in the bamboo forest... Despite that, the living facilities were excellent, and there was nothing to complain about.
"Princess, is it true that you will marry Walson?" Ilka's innocent voice brought me back to reality.
"Don't- don't say that. It's embarrassing!" The woman playing with Ilka blushed and said awkwardly.
With her pure white and radiant hair and a height of 1.7 meters, wearing a black leather coat, short pants, and long boots, this girl is the second princess of the Teigitan Kingdom, Derisha Teigitan.
I heard that the second princess of the Teigitan Kingdom was a famous adventurer, and this is what she looks like in person.
At first, it was hard to believe... until I saw the princess's crown and the royal family emblem, I finally believed that Princess Derisha was indeed visiting Sadin Village and staying at the orphanage.
But... Walson... you've even caught the attention of a princess... she's even chasing after you. Stop running away, really.
When you left Sadin Village together with Grace before, there was some strange awkwardness between you two... Well, it's good to see that your relationship has become harmonious now, and Grace seems to be doing well.
And that girl named Melon, the lizardfolk girl, she became your girlfriend too...
"Isn't Walson charming? Isn't he amazing? How did Princess fall for Walson?" Ilka's eyes sparkled... Oh, this girl is twelve years old now, and she used to idolize Walson a lot...
Ah, yes, there's also a new girl, a member of the elven race, with gorgeous wavy curls.
She looks elegant; is she from some noble family?
I asked you, Walson, and you said she's just a friend, but that elven lady doesn't think that way. She said she wants to be your wife.
...Well... if we include Princess Derisha, who made a bold confession earlier, and Ilka, Walson... you're quite the heartbreaker.
"Hey, Maany, what do you think?" A voice next to me spoke; it turned out to be Miss Alice, who came with Princess Derisha.
With brown hair and a brown snake tail, the Lamia girl had a smart and elegant aura surrounding her,
Lamia is a rare race, I didn't expect to meet one in Sadin Village one day.
"Hmm? What do you mean, Miss Alice?"
"Do you think our Derisha can capture Walson's heart?"
"Well... I'm not sure... but Walson really likes breasts. He used to stare at mine a lot when we were kids. So, I think she should be fine."
