　Inside Galius' ramshackle house.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I named him Marlon.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I gave him a name with the spell "Naming" and bestowed upon him a spell.

　As I murmured the spell, a magic circle appeared in front of my palm, and the naming of Marlon was completed without incident.

"Now, Mr. Marlon. Meditation. Please say the word "Meditation."

"Uh, yeah. ....... Meditation."

　A few days have passed since I met with Galius.

　We've been staying at Galius' house ever since.

　We have decided to keep an eye on Marlon for a while until his body recovers.

　Cursed as a child, Marlon is slowly approaching death.

　Garius has done everything he can to cure Marlon, and when he has been unable to do so, he has forced Marlon to stay alive with a life-prolonging drug until a cure can be found.

　But perhaps that period of time was too long.

　After the removal of the blood stain, Marlon regained consciousness and his body gradually recovered, but he was in a very difficult state.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It was Marlon's spirit.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　In Marlon's mind, he knew that he was still a young child.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But when he woke up, he found that things had changed drastically.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Galius was known as one of the best craftsmen in the Orient, and his income was commensurate with his skills.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He must have made a good living for that reason.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　However, this is not the case now.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Galius lives in a crumbling old house and in a room in the basement of the house.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Moreover, he does not look like the father I knew.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He looks like him, but he is old and aged.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Moreover, his own body was also a problem.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　For a long time, under the devoted care of Galius, he has been sleeping in bed with life-prolonging drugs, but his body is in good condition.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　However, it was still a good thing.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　His body was emaciated, having spent his entire growth period in bed, unable to move at all, and taking in only minimal nutrition through tubes.

　My hair is not in the best condition, and neither is my skin.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　His body and his surroundings have changed too much.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Marlon's mind could not cope with the changes.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Every day he wakes up surprised by the changes, frightened, screaming, and despairing.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He kept repeating such things over and over again.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Marlon would not last this long.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Everyone watching Marlon thought so.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　So they made a decision.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　We named Marlon, even though he had not yet arrived at the village of Barca.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It is so that he can use [meditation].

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Meditation is a magic that keeps the magic power that is unconsciously flowing from the body inside the body.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Brother Ars made this [Meditation] to avoid the muscle pains he felt when training to ride a Valkyrie.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Therefore, it had the beneficial effect that one night's sleep after using [Meditation] would make one feel refreshed and in perfect physical condition.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　However, this [meditation] has another effect.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It is mental stability.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Using [meditation], the body is freed from fatigue, and at the same time, the mind is stabilized.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　This effect is quite significant.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　For example, the first time you go into battle and put your hands on someone's life, most of us cannot stop thinking about it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　And the mental effects on the body, such as loss of appetite, inability to sleep, and so on, are also caused by the mental effects.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　However, using this [meditation] will ease such mental burdens and calm them down.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The fact that the mercenaries have made it this far safely despite the various mental burdens they have had to endure since their first battle, including living in a new place, is largely due to the effect of this [meditation].

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Marlon used it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The moment he muttered the word "meditation," there was a distinct change in his face.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The impatience, agitation, and anxiety that had appeared on his face were still there, but he had calmed down considerably.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Are you all right, Mr. Marlon?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Then Hannah calls out to her.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　She holds his hand gently and waits until he calms down to listen to his story.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　In between, she gives him a cup of ginger tea to warm his body.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　At times like this, it is probably good to have someone of the same s*x to talk to.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Marlon seems to be able to talk more calmly with Hannah than with his own father Garius.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Thank you, Hannah!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Well, I don't know, Mr. Alphonse. She called me a big sister. I think Marlon is older than you. ......"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I don't think it's any different.　Marlon's mental age is probably younger than Hannah. Think of it as having another sister and help her out."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Of course, but, umm... Older sister."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Hannah, who's that?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Let's see, this is Mr. Alphonse. Look, Mr. Marlon. Can you say hello?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yes. Nice to meet you, Mr. Alphonse. I'm Marlon.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yeah, nice to meet you, Marlon. Marlon will be coming to my village with his father Garius. Make sure you take good care of yourself, okay?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Village?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yes. The village of Barca. It's a nice place with a little more nature than here. Will you come?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yes. I'll go with your father and Hannah.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"That's great. Well, we'll see how things go for a few more days and then we'll move on."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Apparently [meditation] is working well.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Marlon, who had looked so full of despair, is now completely fine.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　His body and mental age are not in proportion to each other, so he feels a little strange, but that is acceptable.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　After a few more days of observation, we finally returned to Barka village.
