The lady look at him seriously.

He filled with fear knowing what he has done uttering of words “I-I’m s-so-sorry”

The lady looks away and said “We need to get back and check for the others”

*Others?* he ask within his mind

They arrived in a place where it was set by fire and they see dead bodies gathered up and fired.

The lady cry but the only thing he do is hugged the lady to comfort.

“It just us who survive, what are we going to do now?” the lady said to him while kneeling on the ground.

He is a man in a body of a boy so he doesn’t know how he’ll going to give an advice.

“Is there any other place where you can live?” He asked but didn’t receive any answer.

*I guess it’s a NO* frustrated due to the situation.

The man noticed the armors scattered everywhere.

“I guess you need to take a rest for a while and take a nap” He said sincere and the lady is shocked.

“I will guard you, I promise” he added and the woman smile weak but follow the advice of him.

The lady is sleep on the side at basement of the tree.

He wondered around to understand what happened in the place it was a three little burned house with corpse of people in it. He saw one burned house full of tools on it and the other one was full of food stock but it has no used now because of fire.

He saw an entrance from the food stack to underground and he saw one barrel of crude oil, carbon, fire brick blocks and metals but divided in different classification.

The walked to the horse but whined because of his presence around it.

He look for another underground and he saw one near the corpse but he still go inside. He saw that the room was small and hold only unknown stone in different colors, paper, thread, leather, sacs, straws, cloths and ceramic vase.

He noticed a one grimoire holds some sort of information about the goblins Twelve Elemental magic, Heal divine blessing and wands creation

He gathered all the things he found when the lady woken up and ask him. “what are you going to do with these things?”

“I thought we will need these things so I get it” the man answered and asked in return. “where are you going After this?

“I don’t know this is our place, our home and you live here. Don’t you remember me?” the lady answered to his question.

“Then we will stay but we need to get them buried at least in one those hole, to give them a proper burial and used the other one as temporary place for us” he said while pointing out those underground.

“We will” the lady answered with smile and instantly added while looking at the things he gathered “but you need to take a rest, you can help me later”

“Yes, I will” he answered back and asked a question

“You can call me big sis, I’m your sister” the lady smiled.

“what happened here?” He asked and the lady gave him dark impression.

“The truth is I’m not your brother and I just wake up from this body and I don’t know what happened.” he answered but he can’t look at the lady.

“I’m sorry, I don’t know anything” he answered with full of curiosity of what happening.

“You don’t need to sorry but please take care of the body” the lady said and walked away to take her leave but the man answered back that made her stopped “I will, I promise but please let me stay with you because I don’t know where i'll go”

“Yes, you will stay and you don’t have to worry about it” the lady smile genuinely answer back and he take a sit on the basement of the tree expressionless.

(Flash back)

He opened the door but before he went inside, he feels the he doesn’t belong to its place so he don’t enter door close it again.

He opened his eyes and realized he fell asleep.

He heard someone fall from the ladder down of the underground basement that made him come back to reality, he go urgently saw the lady loss her balanced.

“I guess I can’t leave you alone” He said with smile but the lady look away.

He helped the lady to get up and said “Let me help you from now on”

“I’m already done getting corpse inside the ground” the lady said trying to look independent and immediately says that “But they only in the least of our number, hope someone survive other than us”

“Okay. Let us wash our hand and next time cover your hands before touching corpse” He said looking at the lady’s hand as he noticed it full of dirt.

“O-okay” the woman looked away uttering with word because of his gentleness.

The lady lead him to the near river it has black sand and strong water current. The place can be livable to the both of them but knowing the attack makes him terrified to stay in the place but he can’t change his words. He ordered the lady to seat and wait for him.

He got the water container made in bamboo and scoop water down the river and make the lady drink the woman tried to snatch the container but he insisted to hold it because of lady dirty hands “Let me hold it for you because your hands are dirty” and the lady can’t protest and let the man continue.

He scoop water again to clean the hands of the lady by himself.

“I not him but I guess I can be your little brother also” the man said in guilt and can’t looking on the ground because he can’t look in the eyes of lady.

“Don’t lie to yourself, you can’t” The lady said and moved his chin to look at her.

He saw the mesmerizing beauty of the lady that now is smiling.

“You look on my body while I’m sleep” the lady explained and he totally blushed but can’t look away

“S-sorry” The man said.
