Chapter 897
The chief thanked me
“You say that… But it’s not like I did anything bad when I got these scars…”
He seemed a little crest-fallen after hearing Ms. Delia’s opinion.
Regardless, was it from being attacked by a monster?
“It was because you were playing near the forest as a child, and you tripped and fell, wasn’t it? That is what I heard.”
“Well…it is something like that.”
He looked quite embarrassed, and I felt bad for eavesdropping.
Apparently, he had been playing with the other children around the trees that had not been processed yet.
He had tripped and fell on a tree stump.
A branch was growing out, and he had not wanted to break it. So he moved out of the way…towards the axe that was leaning against it. Realizing the danger, he had reached out to another tree to regain his balance.
