That time I failed as an Author and got reincarnated in Tensura

Chapter 79: An otherwordly hero [I]

3rd Pov

The minor world known as Persillia, another world that completely differed from the central world.

Here, the state of magicule was poor...in fact, not many could use this magic and the presence of skills was lacking.
Perhaps, centuries ago or in its whole history some managed to awaken such a concept but it wasn't omnipresent like it is in the cardinal world.

Dawn witnessed the pitiful state of this world...even if he would describe it as such because of his own higher standard.

He briefly landed after engaging himself in a short monologue...far away from the luxurious quarter of this nation he had just set foot in.

Dawn : Is it here ?

Rachel : Y-yes...how did you travel so fast ? It usually takes a few hours to walk from the common quarter to here...

In front of them was a crumbling house...no in fact,the whole street or at least what this rotten area of this nation was filled with such design.

Rachel : W-well...for a noble like you, this kind of house must be quite downsighting...

Dawn : I can't say I'm not disappointed...

Rachel looked down with a sad smile, though she didn't notice the blatant anger sprouting on her new acquaintance's face.

Dawn didn't like how the one who was once his mother...lived in such a poor way, she had died as a hero for him...and fate repaid her in such a way ?

Dawn : I can feel the presence of a few people inside...are they your family ?

Rachel : You can feel their presen-i mean, yes ! I have 3 little brothers and 2 little sisters.

Dawn : Such big family...

Rachel : Hehe, our parents were killed a few months after the birth of the youngest...along with them, my two older siblings passed, ever since I'm the one taking care of them.

She scratched her cheek awkwardly, she didn't know why she revealed so much to a man she had just met...

Maybe because the way Dawn addressed her was...warm ? Or is it because of the strength he displayed and his lack of arrogance ?

Dawn : It must have been hard...

Rachel : I can't say otherwise but...not everything is bad, seeing my siblings grow up healthy despite our poor condition makes me happy.

She was doing her best, a sad smile formed on her...she took a step forward and gestured to her guest to come in.

Rachel : Even if I can't offer much, please do enter.

Dawn : Sure...(Her expression just now...it was regret...)

He simply brushed off the feeling for now and took her invitation, stepping inside the crumbling house.

The first thing he was met with was a noisy background noise coming from one of the 3 rooms present, there was no door...simply a dirty home without much furniture.

???: Big sishter is back !

A sudden voice rose sharply as all noise ceased...Rachel simply scoffed while giving a softer smile.

Rachel : Well welcome to my home.

Making way to the noisy room, which was a sort of living room...Dawn's eyes fell on Rachel's entire family.

As she introduced them...from the oldest to the youngest :

-Theo 12 years old

-Lucien 10 years old
