The man looked down at the cheerful Tein and swallowed hard. 'How did it come to this?' Tein had found the old log cabin not long after Sharti went down the mountain. As he secretly peered outside through the bedroom window, he made eye contact with Tein who was running toward the log cabin. - Tein shouted, startled by the shadow that crossed the window, and at the same time, the man moved far away from the window. - Until then, the clever child seemed to be turning around to flee…-

The man crossed his arms and smiled bitterly. "Although there's no sign of my memory recovering." He had no difficulty conversing, thinking, or acting. Yet how could he not remember even a single name? Among everything else, being unable to remember names was shocking. 'I must have been a big, clumsy oaf with nothing but brawn.' The man was convinced his past self was a dim-witted fellow. That's why he nearly died from his injuries and lost his memories. The more he thought about it, the more…

The thought of her belly button clock that had been rumbling loudly after missing two meals made her dizzy. Realizing the cause, embarrassment and shame heated her face. 'He heard everything!' Back then, she hadn't recognized his gaze as one of concern about her meals. She had thought it was a scrutinizing look, monitoring whether she was being careless with her treatment. Sharti's face reddened with surprise. "Sha, take it. Think about your legs that worked so hard today." Patricia, who had taken…

Sharti was momentarily speechless and couldn't refute him. She narrowed her eyes slightly, wondering why his correct statements sounded so annoying. "I'll wash the dishes." As soon as they finished eating, he naturally took the dishes. But Sharti pushed away his sturdy arm and took back the dishes. <You stay seated.> Despite her limp, Sharti wouldn't share the chores. The man was also a patient. She had no intention of making a patient do the dishes while she rested. "......" The man,…

The man asked for Sharti's name as if he had been waiting for this moment. Flustered, Sharti moved her lips. 'I am...' Ignoring her tingling nose, Sharti smiled. But as the pain in her chest intensified, her smile became distorted. <My name is 'Sha', Ren.> Sharti desperately erased the memories from five years ago that flashed in her mind. Her name was 'Sha.' Not Sharti. "...Sha. I see." Upon finally learning Sharti's name, satisfaction spread across the man's indifferent face. Even though…

The more he mulled over the recent situation, the more suspicious the words and actions of the soldier who was the squad leader felt. 'A reason to search at night. Does it mean their goal isn't to capture? A search with stakes worth the lives of several people.' The man anxiously bit his lip, hoping that he wasn't the sole cause of the search. 'I'm useless.' The only thing he could do was carry the physically weak woman and run. He didn't know how to do anything else. He had no knowledge, no common…

Sharti silently scoffed at his clear expression that he didn't need help. 'As if there's nothing injured.' His upper body was already bare, and his lower garments had been shortened to resemble shorts, so she had already finished examining his wounds. The wounds on his abdomen and thigh that concerned her most had slightly reopened. 'So quickly, but that's expected since he carried me while running.' Fortunately, there was no problem with soaking his body in Sharti's special herbal bath. 'I wanted to…

Sharti carried the heavy basket, happily heading toward the log cabin. Mushrooms, fish, and luckily, even some expensive medicinal herbs were found. Sharti's cheeks were flushed with slight excitement. 'I wanted to collect more. What a shame.' Sharti had a habit of losing track of time and collecting herbs whenever she found an unexpected good harvest. But since Ren was waiting at home, and she had a clear purpose to gather ingredients for his meal, Sharti promised herself next time. 'Huh?' As she…

Sharti didn't dare grip the flower stem too tightly for fear it might be damaged. She hurriedly placed the preciously received flower into a medicine bottle on the table. Though she didn't have a proper flower vase, it created a fitting picture for such a simple flower. "Do you like it? ...ma'am?" Ren watched with slight curiosity as Sharti couldn't take her eyes off the flower. The pale yellow flower he had picked was embarrassingly rough and plain. It was probably a common flower that Sharti, who…

The old log cabin didn't have a hearth in the kitchen. Instead, there was a fireplace in the living room. The fireplace tucked in the corner was in a messy state with dust, cobwebs, and herbs scattered about, having not been used for a long time. Although Ren had belatedly discovered the fireplace, he couldn't touch it without Sharti's permission, so he had just tidied up the area around it whenever he had time. But contrary to Ren's expectations, even on windy days or rainy nights, Sharti ignored…
