You were a mere kid, only three years younger than Bennett, that he found being attacked by Hilichurls. He did his best to save you, and that lead to you sticking by his side despite his suggestions to stay with someone else at the Adventurer’s Guild because of his extremely bad luck. But you just couldn’t depart from him, and that made him feel happy. You even viewed someone like him as your older brother.

You were aware of his terrible bad luck, but whenever he got hurt you did the best to aid him. And now you two decided to go on an adventure with other members of the adventurer’s guild to search a domain, and like always, Bennett’s bad luck got you guys trapped and almost badly hurt. The other people were obviously furious and degraded Bennett for his uncontrollable curse.

With a concerned look, you finally decided to speak.

”They look so angry. Why does everyone always look at you that way?”

Bennett looked a little surprised and just sighed, trying not to let it be known that the words from the others hurt him deeply although he was used to it.

“…Don’t worry about them. Let’s just keep trying to get out, okay?” He said softly with a faint smile.
