[Saint Seiya LC] Daughter of the Abyss

*******************

When Sister Sophia was holding a big basin of dirty clothes and taking a few older girls to wash clothes by the river, she saw Polly who was about to go out.

"Is Polly going out?"

"Well, I want to go pick some herbs." Polly knew very well that she couldn't act too enchanting all of a sudden.

"Huh? Little Polly, do you know how to identify herbs?" The nun's eyes widened, and she didn't quite believe what she heard.

"I read in the book that my father often praised me as the smartest!" Polly deliberately put on the showy look of a child.

"Okay, then don't run too far." Sure enough, Sister Sophia didn't take her words seriously at all, she just took her words as a child's play.However, this child was able to read and write, which was slightly beyond Sister Sophia's expectations.

As if thinking of something, the nun took Polly's hand, turned her head and shouted into the house: "Pegasus, Pegasus."

"What's the matter, Aunt Nun." Tenma poked his head out of the window and responded energetically.

"Come here, take Polly around." Considering that the child had just arrived in the village, the nun decided to find someone to go with her. It would be troublesome if she got lost alone.

"Okay, I'll be right there." While talking, Tenma jumped out of the window.After being slapped lightly by the nun, she jumped in front of Polly.

"Hi, I'm Tenma. I heard from the nun that your name is Polly, right?" Tenma has been curious about this child who is different from them for several days, and Aaron would have run to talk to him long ago. .

"Hello, Tianma. I'm Polly Enna." Polly lifted her skirt slightly, performed an elegant lady's salute, and successfully made Tianma flustered.

Polly wasn't trying to trick Pegasus, though.Uh, well, that's one of the purposes too.Her real purpose is to be a nun. Even if she makes a potion, her child's body cannot be sold. The only adult in this orphanage is Sister Sophia.

Sure enough, her elegant and skillful etiquette attracted the attention of the nuns. These days, the identities of nobles and commoners are very different. A well-educated noble girl, even a declining noble from a poor family, is more important than an ordinary commoner girl. more convincing.

Sure enough, within a few minutes of leaving the orphanage, two people chased him up from behind.

"Pegasus!"

"Ah, Aaron, Sasha, I'm over here!"

So the trio are really inseparable now?Who would have thought that these three little children would be the protagonists of the holy war nine years later, fighting each other on two opposing camps.

Unlike the trio who are familiar with each other, Polly, Aaron and Sasha didn't even say a word, so the scene became a little awkward.

Poli really didn't know what to say, the biggest boss of the sanctuary and the underworld was right in front of her eyes, and the two were holding hands so intimately, she really couldn't say a word!

Tenma's nerves are thick enough, and he happily introduced both sides: "Aaron, Sasha, this is Polly, Aunt Sister asked me to show her around. Polly, this is Aaron, this is Sasha Sarah is my friend."

In fact, Tianma also really wanted to see how Aaron would react under Polly's dignified and elegant etiquette, so he could learn from it.

Hey, hey~~ Tianma, Nai's role is stereotyped as a simple, sunny, and passionate boy, not naturally black! !

But his hope immediately turned to disappointment, because the interaction of the next three people could not be more than normal.

"Hi, I'm Aaron and this is my sister Sasha."

"Hi, my name is Sasha."

"Hi, I'm Polly Enner."

The dignified etiquette that made Tianma's teeth ache before did not reappear.

"Hey, why is it different from just now?" Tianma seemed to be a little dissatisfied and muttered, it was really unfair that he was the only one being messed up.

After stroking her hair blown by the wind, Polly said: "Because the nun was there just now, of course you can't be rude in front of the nun."

As a result, Tenma's depressed look managed to make the other two laugh.

***************

The distance between the children was easily shortened. When they walked out of the village, the somewhat awkward stalemate between the four had disappeared.

"Eh? Polly, are you here to collect herbs?" Sasha's eyes widened in disbelief, looking at Polly who carefully put some plants into the basket.

"Of course, I have learned this before!" As she spoke, she vigorously pulled up a plant that was nearly as tall as her shoulders, "This is foxglove, a medicine that can be used to treat heart disease. "

Obviously, Poli, who is small and weak, couldn't pull out the foxglove tree for a while.

"Look at me." Tianma rolled up his sleeves and began to compete with this plant.

"Ah, I'll help too." As a boy, Aaron also expressed that he could help.

"And me." Sasha joined in not to be outdone.

The four of them worked together, and the poor foxglove was naturally uprooted. Speaking of which, Tianma, who is only a little over six years old, is already very strong.

Uh... The result of using too much is naturally that all four people sat on the ground, and the four children looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.

"Ha ha……"

"Ha ha……"

After laughing for a while, Sasha helped Polly remove the sticky soil from the foxglove roots, while the two boys swept up other medicinal herbs nearby under Polly's guidance.In this era, knowledge is only in the hands of a few people, and most people can't even spell their own names correctly. Pharmacy in Europe is still at a relatively poor stage, and many medicinal plants have not been discovered and are abandoned. No one cares about the wilderness, which makes it easier for Poli and the others.

(Rose: In fact, I have always expressed deep curiosity about whether Aaron and Tianma are literate. Considering the social background and the environment of the orphanage at that time, Sasha, who was sent to the sanctuary to receive the education that a goddess should have, must be literate Yes. As for Tenma, do those ordinary saint fighter trainees have cultural lessons? As for Aaron, this is the most pitiful one, with no chance of education at all. Can he spell his name correctly? Hope he becomes After Pluto, you can get automatic literacy plug-ins, otherwise it would be too tragic for the illiterate Pluto!)
