"TO,

Dear Aaris Ralkier,

'Ello Brat,

We have sent all your belongings from your straw shed to you as you know the whole Tresguy family was sad after hearing about your mother especially Sister Erza they were great friends

you know, and Father too,

Anyway, I heard you are going to the orphanage we've sent you some compensation for your loss that may help you in the future.

And also I think you must be thinking about getting back to us but you also know that you can never do it,

it must be really hard to survive for a useless brat like you anyways, I asked Crius that it wants you as his butler but he refused he said he didn't want as worthless as you as his butler,

In the end, I just want to say we all want you to live a long and happy life and I hope you know why.

Your Dear Owner

Dustin Tresguy."

The moment I finished reading the letter it turned into ashes, it must be bound with a withdrawal spell, I knew why he wanted me to survive,

to unravel the terror of Tresguys' I picked up the crate and put it along with the box and also the book I wanted to read.

In the end, I decided to wait for Serlin,

The evening came Serlin came back, with few documents in his hand,

"Pack your things you'll leave tomorrow for St.Mickael Orphanage in Domain Triof", That was everything he said that day maybe he knew I got my belonging.

We had dinner with a peculiar silence and then I slept thinking what will happen next,

As the morning broke Serlin came to my room and told me to get ready, I got out of the bed and wore clothes he brought, with uneasy air between us we got on the carriage. Serlin looked outside the window and said,

The domain Triof was close to the country Capital St.Jibeael, "named after one of the 4 Archangel,

The Light and Wisdom,

from the Sacred War, and so was the orphanage It was named after another Archangel,

St.Mickael, The Nourisher and Merciful,

The other two were,

St.Isafael, The Protector and The Warrior,

And the last one was,

Angel of Death, was the only nameless Angel and didn't take part in the war You know why"

"I don't" I answered,

"It is believed that he despised humans for not respecting him and being afraid of him, so he never gave his name to anyone to conjure his Grace during the war to Fight the

8 Chariots of Iblyss, The Demon, and

the Fallen Archangel of Salvation and Faith,

the story is long we'll continue again sometime for now your new home isn't far now, in the end, long story short The absence of The Angel of Death resulted in The Sacred war arising again in the future as it won't end until the each Archangel Seal two chariots within their wings if only he joined the war many would've now lived their life without in the fear of demons they didn't have any part in the war but considered as descended of the remaining 2 chariots and....."

"Sir we are here," the coachman told us we are on the destination,

We got out of the carriage and while going inside Serlin said,

"Your grudge and hatred will only bring despair and misery to you and others close to you so now choose wisely what you want to do in life."

"Welcome!"

A middle-aged woman dressed in plain clothes was standing in front of the gate of a big building it wasn't much big it looked like it only had mostly 30-40 rooms it was still small in front of the mansion of Tresguys'.

Serlin standing beside me and went close to the woman,

"Miss Ilin it's been a long time, how are things here?"

the woman touched her cheek and said with a smile,

"It is all good, every child is here happy because of you and your comrades and we don't have to worry much." she looked at me kneeled "And you must be Aaris, your eyes are beautiful! "

I smiled at her bowed my head,

"My Name is Aaris Ralkier and I'll be in your care"

"Hm?" she tilted her head,

"Excuse me, Sir. Serlin, can I see you in the office?"

she looked at him,

"Of course you go put your crate on the table there and go explore until I call you."

I nodded and put my crate on the table close to the gate and went to explore the Orphanage, after all, it will be my new home I promised myself I will face everything with a smile so I can't frown at it now, I went corridor to corridor, there was a garden in the middle of the building and their children of different age were playing and practicing magic they didn't notice me I thought and went again on a stroll, a girl and a young boy was coming forward towards me she looked at me said in a cheerful voice,

"Good morning I am Folia are you new here? " a girl with Orange twin-tail hair and green eyes looked 10 to 12 years old dress in a green frock, the boy hit her head with a chop with a right hand and said,

"you shouldn't be like that, I am sorry for sister ignorance I am Fiol her younger brother, please forgive her for being rude" he bowed in front of me he was taller than her and had the same hair and eyes dressed in a normal shirt and trousers,

"Younger brother?" I was a bit shocked he didn't look younger than him,

"yes I am, she is 11 years old and I am 9 years old"

" oye Fiol! you shouldn't expose a maiden age so casually" she nagged at him, he laughed a bit,

"Anyways I have to go now and also I didn't get your name," he said

" Oh I am sorry myself Aaris Ralkier I m 10 years old I'll be in your care from now on," I said with a smile

"You are a bit strange!" said Folia with her eyebrow raised,

"why?" I asked,

"Well you see nobody can smile the day they come here they are mostly reserved and refuse to socialize with anybody for a long time but you are a bit-"

"Strange? well maybe " I said while scratching the back of my head,

"Anyway I should go now, please excuse me and please take care of my sister" He bowed again and looked at his sister,

"Please take care and don't push yourself, Folia had a strangely worried look on her face,

" I will take care I'll see you tomorrow, see you!"

and he ran toward a building connected by a single corridor,

"So it has two buildings!?" I looked at Folia, "Are they divided by gender?"

"you don't know?" she looked at me with awe "well that explains your peculiar calmness, you see this building is for the orphanage and that..."

she stopped for reason and looked towards the corridor her brother ran to,

"That is for Orphans with Disease or strange Curses,"

"Curses??"
