Anita had a tight grip on the brooe cabinet
She grew up in this orphanage
A couple of years ago, the Matron found her half dead in the sluave her a fae is ht now, I'm the only person who can protect the children and the orphanage
My treination I'lared up at the three -men
「What do you want?」
「You knoe want We ca those cookies And since it took you guys so long to pay, your debt now is 20 silver coins」
「Don't be ridiculous, that's 10 times more than the last time you three were here! We don't have the money to pay off such a debt nor do we have the intention of paying you guys a single coin!!」
I raised my voice with fury but the look on the man's face did not loosen
They ht now
Around this time of the day, all the children who are in their teens are at work So, right now, I'm the eldest in this house Only I can protect this place
I stood at the entrance as bravely as I could Giving thele step back no matter what they did to me
I just need to buy some time until the Matron co srip on the broomstick
「The debt doesn't have to be paid in money, you know? A couple of those brats should do it How about that? Missy?」
「Some people are filthy rich And sos just to take care of adorable, innocent, children」
「What are you…!」
My vision started to turn red froive away one of my precious family, my only family to the likes of theht !」
「Then how are you planning to pay us back!? You owe us big time!」
The harsh yell of the ive me any ti you either? I mean, brats are too e, it'll be easier to find a customer and you're already well talanced at me from head to toe
「I, I won't cooperate with any of you!!」
「Very well Then you better pay us back in cash, even if you have to sell off this crappy ceround, he turned around and nodded to the two other men
「Hold up!」
As the ed into theth
「Shut up!」
「Ouch!」
I swung down the brooht it with one hand like it was nothing Then, they flungwith the broorip as I crashed down on the ground
I saw the
It was frustrating that I couldn't be like Matron That I failed to protect my family's home
My vision started to blur with tears
But the fight isn't over yet
I bit downnearfro with this brat!?」
「Do you want to end up like your friend as well?」
「What did you… ouch!!!」
Another man was thrown up into the air and crashed into the first irl in a red dress hite fur walked out froirl I found today
Everyone was looking at the little girl with her long black hair swaying in the wind and her arm crossed over her chest
「What's up with this brat?」
As the irl looked over to hiirl had a golden iris
「Hey ht now You see, we're baking cookies in the kitchen right now And e finish baking theo and sell them In other words, none of us has the tiirl, we're here because you guys are selling those cookies without paying for the land So, we're here to collect the debt」
「Shut your face! That land is free to use, youto pay off that debt by yourself?」
The irl with a sinister grin
However, the girl betrayed the elic s her flawless s force suddenly attacked him
Fro screahbourhood
「Hey oes around the town, scaring little girls? They're called paedophiles」
The irl's words He turned around to look at his co to stand up and ordered theh he ordered in a pathetic posture, his subordinates loyally followed their boss's order and charged at the girl in the red dress
I quickly got up and tried to stop the ot picked up by the wind and fell into the girl's hand
As I stared at her in confusion, she tightened her grip on the brooave a joyous s black hair which was flung upwards fro wind
「Anita!! Everyone!! Are you guys okay?」
「What the hell is that!?」
The boy ent to get the Matron caht, he raised his voice eventhe boy's voice, I snapped back to reality
「Anita!」
Hearing eous looking ate
「Ma, Matron!」
I ran over to hi appearance that any child would start crying at a sight, but this is the person who has taken care of me when no one else wanted to He took care of all the other children ere in the sae
He said that he used to be in the army, but he never talks about the time before he was a Matron
The Matron tookon the ground, unconscious
「Kid and the others have coet me so I came over in a hurry But, what has happened here?」
「About that…」
「That girl! She's a them up in the air with a broo!」
「She said it was cleaning tiirl?」
The Matron looked around the area as the children crowded around him and talked over one another
「um, are you the Matron?」
Behind the crowd of children stood the girl with a red pointy hat and a long black hair
She walked over to the Matron, dragging one of the irl who's clearly stronger than the average person caoing to take down this orphanage and take control of this entire area 」
「What……」
Both the Matron and I felt a shi+ver run down our spine but the girl stood in front of us calht?」
「Yes However, thatin nuht be safe now, but the others will follow him soon And when that happens, I htened his fist from frustration, I quietly broke eye contact with hiirl quietly muttered to herself
「So it's best to take down the entire ht? Yeah, that should be enough ti if we heard the girl's words correctly, the girl nodded to herself and looked up
「Onee-san, do you mind if I borrow this brooood brooht soave the money to the kids ere in the kitchen」
「Tha, thank you?」
