-A woman in the village of Latomi

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

Outside the village chief's house.

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

It is snowing.

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

It is the first snow of the year.

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

I hear yelling from the house I came out of.

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

Lots of people yelling.

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

"How did this happen?"

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

This village was not wealthy.

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

But there was income from the village's special product, xaro, which was harvested every year.

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

So they were able to survive the winter.

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

But this year, they had a poor crop of xaro.

...... is wrong. No, it wasn't."

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

Because Luba the fortune teller died.

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

That's not true either.

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

It's because Luba the Fortune Teller was killed by the village chief.

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

Huh~"

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

Breathe on your cold fingertips.

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

Reddening fingertips.

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

Food is scarce, so they go into the woods in the winter to look for something to eat.

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

It's not easy to find it, and every day is tough.

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

She has to live through winters like this ......

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

I had a younger sister.

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

A sweet little sister, four years younger than me.

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

I thought she would never change.

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

But then my parents changed.

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

Since then, everything has changed.

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

I had no idea what had happened.

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

I was just scared.

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

I was afraid that my parents would reject me too.

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

So I ran away.

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

'You're so stupid~'

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

Something I threw at my sister.

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

When it hit my sister, my heart flinched.

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

But it was only for a moment.

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

I thought I was right, that my family was right.

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

'What a stupid family~'

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

He was fascinated by the teachings of the church, his father and mother.

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

I thought they were a little crazy.

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

My sister was a little strange.

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

Sometimes she said strange things.

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

I didn't know what she was saying.

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

She was the only one who would stay with me.

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

My father and mother only liked my brother, who had good skills.

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

My skills weren't particularly good.

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

So everything took a back seat.

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

Sometimes they forgot to make promises to me because they put my brother first.

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

When I was so sad that I hid and cried, he was there beside me without saying a word.

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

She was so kind.

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

GASP!

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

A loud noise echoes from inside the village chief's house.

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

And then, the sound of people going wild.

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

The footsteps of people running away.

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

Shouts.

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

Some people seem to be crying.

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

It's even colder today.

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

Maybe it will pile up.

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

If it piles up, it will be harder to find food in the forest than today.

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

Ha ha, we have to do it even if it's hard.

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

I remember what Luba, the fortune teller, told me.

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

'Do you think God would bring into existence a truly unwanted being?' And.

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

He just looked me in the eye quietly and said.

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

Are they really dead?"

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

The village chief asked the Adventurers' Guild to search for the villagers who had escaped.

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

All but one of them were unaccounted for.

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

The look on the village chief's face when he received the results was amusing.

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

He turned red in the face and yelled at me.

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

It really wasn't a pretty sight."

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

One person whose whereabouts I found out.

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

That's my sister.

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

With the signature of the head of the Latome village, he said, 'We have identified the body of a girl of similar stature.

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

A man named Captain Ogto wrote the story of how he found it.

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

'While patrolling in the forest, we found the body of an emaciated girl,' said his companions, Vice-Captain Verivera and Commander Roigt.

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

There were signs that she had been eaten by a beast, and she was so badly damaged that she was cremated immediately.

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

It seems that it didn't matter to the village chief, and he didn't have anything to say about it.

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

You tried to kill him.

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

I guess it's the same for me and them."

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

A father tries to kill his blood daughter.

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

A mother who knew it and sent her off.

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

My brother who took it for granted.

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

Me, who pretended I didn't see it.

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

All of us killed her.

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

Boom.

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

I was standing next to the front door, and the sound of the front door opening made me jumpy.

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

I looked in the direction of the sound and saw the village head coming out covered in blood.

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

Don't run away!　Because of you."

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

When the village chief started running, several villagers chased after him.

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

It seems that the chief was caught a short distance away from the chief's house.

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

He said, "If you hit him so hard, he would have died."

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

The anger of the villagers was at its peak.

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

And yet, they were ordered every day to go gather food to eat.

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

Ranting and raving about giving them more taxes next year.

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

As a result, the villagers snapped.

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

'You were in a place like this?'

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

I looked in the direction of the voice and saw my father.

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

Behind him were my mother and brother.

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

I said to myself, "How can he be the mayor of this village?

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

My father's words brought a laugh to my face.

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

The family looks at him curiously.

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

He said, "You tried to kill your own daughter on the orders of the village head, and now you've done it again, haven't you?"

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

My father peels his eyes at my words.

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

My mother's color changes.

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

All of us who are left in this village are the same. They killed Luba, the fortune teller."

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

Well, that's not true."

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

Mother denies it, shaking.

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

I'm not different. I pretended not to see it. And then she blamed my sister.

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

I don't have a sister.

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

My brother shouts.

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

'You were there, weren't you?　My sweet, sweet sister. A blood relative that we all kicked out of our home and let die."

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

Stop."

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

Father's face turns red with anger.

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

I stare at it.

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

Why?"　Oh, by the way, did you know that the church teaches us to be nice to people?"

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

I said stop!"

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

My father looks like he is about to grab me.

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

'So why?　Yeah, kill me too?"

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

Stop!"

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

Mother's scream.

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

'Don't make my family sad at a time like this!

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

"At a time like this?　You got what you deserved, didn't you?　Everyone here brought this on themselves, this."

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

The village chief is not the only one to blame.

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

Everyone remaining in this village is equally culpable.

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

And my family and I here are not only guilty of that, we are also guilty of leaving our families to die.

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

It's amazing, isn't it? She survived the winter with nothing to eat for three years by herself.

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

It was three years from the time I was kicked out of my house until that child disappeared.

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

That child survived those three years.

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

So I have a feeling that maybe.

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

I wonder if the girl found in the forest is not her sister.

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

But the captain who said he found her seems to have been an active adventurer.

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

He said, "Huh?　Is he dead?"

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

I don't hear the bruising I heard earlier.

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

I look in the direction where the village chief was and see several villagers standing around.

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

He must have overdone it in anger.

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

Another sin added to the list.

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

We had nothing to do with it.

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

My brother says in a trembling voice.

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

I wonder what he is talking about.

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

'I was watching you?　I saw the village chief being beaten up over there. And yet it doesn't matter?"

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

If you get hit that hard, you know you can die.

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

Because it wouldn't be the first time.

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

The village of Latomi is no longer running well.

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

There wasn't much food, so the villagers killed the weak.

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

That's how we survive.

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

To live?

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

If that was the case, you should have gone to work earlier."

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

When Xaro's sales dropped, he considered going to another village or town to work.

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

The village chief was very much against it.

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

I am sure he thought his crimes would be leaked.

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

He was an idiot.

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

Someday the crime will come to light.

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

Did you get the letter I wrote?

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

A letter I wrote to a person named Captain Ogto, who asked travelers to write to him.

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

I am sure that people will come to this village when they receive it.

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

To catch us.

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

I enclosed a lot of evidence that the chief was hiding.

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

I also wrote about all the crimes committed by the people of this village.

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

It's amazing, isn't it?

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

My family members look gawked at my words.

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

I guess I have only a few more days left to spend with this family.

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

This village should just disappear.

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

I wish I could see them.

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

I want to believe that he is alive somewhere.
