Confession

After I ate these 3 ghouls and 2 humans, I start looking for their purses and want to find some money within them. I can only find some thousands of yens but it is better than nothing. So I come back besides the stream and find someplace to crash.

I saw that Touka alone beside the stream crying so I go behind her and hug her from behind and said "My cute friend why are you crying? If I have anything I can do to make you happy please tell me. I can lend my chest to you anytime you want" "But first you should tell me your name or I will call you a cute girl the whole time." When I looked at her, I saw a girl about 9 years old. Blue beautiful hair and her clothes she wears are a little covered in dirt but that also makes her more pitiful.

When Touka heard that voice, she faces me and prepares to attack me but she didn't attack the next moment and hug me back and cry very hard on my chest for about 10 minutes and she only separates from me after she finishes cry.

Then Touka look at me and said "Name is Touka Kirishima and what is your name again." Argia looks at Touka and fake a sad cry and said "Last time we met I introduce you but you forget my name like I am no one to you. I feel very sad so I need your hug so hug me."

When Touka heard that she blushes and talk to me "If you don't drop your farce then I will ignore you from now on". "Ok. Ok. I will not talk like this so I will seriously ask you can I know the reason for you to cry as I don't want you to say."

Touka looks down and said quietly "My brother left me and he left me a message saying "I want to be stronger and some organization tells me that if I join that organization I will become stronger. Don't look for me. He left the letter like that and leaves me. I can't find him anywhere. Can you please look for him? If you find him, I will do anything you want."

When Argia heard that he feels surprised and at the same time he doesn't feel that much surprise as their father died that day or a day before he thought. But Argia acts like he didn't know and ask Touka "Can you tell me why he left? Touka– chan!"

When Touka heard that her face turn red and want me to tell me not to call her like that but she doesn't deny that and start telling me why her brother leaves her "The day before I and my brother meet you, our father died in the attack of his enemy. I and my brother knew that although our father comes back clean and fulfill like a good father in our home we can tell that our food, human meat must be somewhere dangerous and he must have fight with someone as when he came back he smells like blood. Although he did all the dangerous things he doesn't complain a thing and always smiles at us like there is no problem and give us the feeling of protection and gives us the happiness of being his precious children. And he does his best to make us happy like a happy family."

When Argia heard that he could felt their love for him and love from him to his children. That love is really beautiful but they don't have the necessary strength to protect that love. When he was thinking that he heard Touka tells him or rather asks him a question "Is it that important to become strong?" Argia looks back at him seriously to Touka and said "Yes, in this cruel world, it is very important to become strong and have to get the strength to protect yourself and your loved ones. So do you want to become stronger?"

When Touka heard that she surprised and thought very hard and look at me and said "Yes, I want to have the strength to protect my loved ones. Can you give me that strength? Argia- Kun. Well, what am I talking to you like that sorry don't mind about me."

I saw that she serious about wanting to become strong but when I was about to reply she looks down and said to herself like I am not strong at all and that pissed me off a little. I make her look at my eyes and said to her "Yes, I can't give you the strength that you want but you can get it yourself so let's become stronger. I can give you the path that will make you stronger. So let's train together"

Touka surprise by the words I spoke and she didn't know how to respond back and freeze for a while but she comes back to herself and respond to me "Yes, let's become stronger". "Then can you tell me where you live?" asked Argia. Touka looks at me and said, "Why do you want to know? It not like you need to know. Do you?". "Of course, I need to know as from now on I am going to live with you from now on. So lead me to your home," said Argia.

When I was talking Touka I heard the notification of new quests. So I look at the system and saw

Ding! New quest found.

When I was looking at my status, I heard Touka's voice telling "This is where I live". When I look in front of me, I saw a small house that only enough to fit two people, and the surrounding is filled with trash and the air smell like the burned smoke. Then I saw that Touka is looking at my expression when I saw her house and I look back at her and smile and said "Now let's prepare for breakfast as the morning is going to come soon. I will come back soon and I left to find some human"
