Reincarnation Of Peace Creator 'Magician' 53 Something Is Bothering Me

It's just afternoon and I already spend 4 days worth of living expense today, luckily, I don't have to spend money on daily need because uncle Alto said I don't need to do that, he's a perfect uncle if only he didn't hit me on the head like he did all time today.

"U-umm... Erwin-san, you shouldn't be doing that for me... I-I will pay you back someday.."

"Ah.. don't worry about that Aurchan, it's not a big deal"

It's right, I can't back off from what I said, it's not manly to do that and I am a man who will protect everyone and I will make Ilynee proud to have a little brother like me.

That's right, no backing off from my own words.

"Oh if it isn't Alto.."

Suddenly a man's voice calling uncle Alto from nowhere, I look around and see an old man waving at our direction, he uses a walking frame to help him walk, he looks so calm and try to smile at us with a wrinkled around his eyelids and his mouth, his smile looks so sincere and can melt the heart of those who see it, he looks like a good person, I see uncle Alto approach him and shake that man's hand.

I and Aurchan followed uncle Alto from behind and greet the man, he greets us back warmly.

"What lovely kids they are, are these your nephew Alto?"

"Yeah, they are such lovely kids aren't they?"

Saying that after hitting me in the head three times? just what a good uncle you are uncle Alto, but I can't complain about that, he always been there helping me and Ilynee when we need it, no doubt he's a good uncle and we are so happy to have someone like him.

"Hey Erwin, Aurchan, you guys can go wherever you want around here by yourself, just don't get into some kind of trouble, okay?"

"O-okay..."

"What are you going to do uncle Alto?"

"Well, it's rare for me and Gille-san to meet each other like this, he's a former knight who always helped me in the past when I was a child"

"Ahahaha.. that was in the past Alto, I'm just an old man now"

"Come on Gille-san, you and Markus-san are my heroes, hahaha"

"Ah, that old man, how is he doing now? I never heard anything anymore from him when he starts to be a nomad, I want to meet him now, hahaha"

I see suddenly uncle Alto is looking and smile at Gille-san, that moment there I feel like the warm smile Gille-san made before is vanis.h.i.+ng and left only wrinkle he shows on his old face.

"Ah, come on you two can go and have fun, here take this, don't get into trouble okay? you hear me, Erwin?"

Uncle Alto hand me a little money with some money in it, he let us go around by ourselves, I look back and see uncle Alto and Gille-san entering the house where Gille-san standing before.

Well, I guess it's only me and Aurchan, I think we might better have fun and enjoy ourselves, I look at Aurchan who is standing a bit far behind me, I know she's trying to keep a distance between us, but, somehow I feel like the distance is increasing a bit than before.

"Ummm... Aurchan, where we should go? do you have any suggestions? It's my first time to go out in the town"

"I think we can go to the plaza?.."

Oh, she's not stuttering anymore, I think it's a good sign for me to get closer to her, I hope she won't get mad at me for doing this.

I'm slowing down my pace, trying to make it unnoticeable by Aurchan so I can get closer to her, I look back at her sometimes, but every time I did that, she will turn her head away from me or look down, I don't really understand it, but it's bothering me for some reason, I don't want to think about this because it's impossible that it gonna happen, I mean, she has an anxiety towards a men right? I can't help but think about it for a while, does she like... No way, no way, what am I thinking right now.

I walk close enough to Aurchan, I want to look at Aurchan's face to make sure something before she notices that I'm slowing down my walking pace, and what I just discovered is something that will bother me even more.

This is no way right? I see her turning her face away, I can't really see it before, but in this close distance, there's no way I won't notice how red her cheeks are right now, I don't want to get over myself, but, this isn't something I can just ignore and pretend that I didn't see it.
