我拿出做工粗糙的備用牙刷，把品質較好的留給芙蕾西雅，用晨早在村口打來的水，草率地快速刷牙洗臉，脫掉上衣用毛巾擦拭經常出汗的位置。71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdQCU0gnFB4

芙蕾西雅有板有樣地模仿，我立刻轉身，她好像也發覺不對勁並發出少許驚慌的聲音臉紅衝回房間。71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoEo0RaDUEB

以堅固的石磚矮牆圍著的村莊裡，友好的村民向我這陌生人打招呼，有個婦人問我能不能幫一幫她搬運地下這些稻草放上推車。71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2R8szxv1bb
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡul5pFl0v5K
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvaZ0kdFBQB
我抱著看起來很輕的稻草捆，吃力地搬完頭三四捆都需要稍作休息，這至少有二十公斤吧。只見婦人輕鬆並純熟抽起拋上推車，沒有惡意的輕笑諷刺耐力不足的年輕人。 71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7vG6ZU6CjQ

熱情的問候滔滔不絕，婦人好奇八卦著我從哪裡來，只有稀少的冒險者會來這裡，多數都被前面那領主所勸退。71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08iLNNBK82
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnGv4w2bhaZ
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPQAWWd1W1G
『你知道住在大宅的那個男人嗎？』我問道，『當然知道了，在這附近生活的人都知道。』婦人回答。我從她的口中得知，那不整儀容的男人曾經是領主，是被迫接任領主的職務。 71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhpD13KY6pf

他的父母在權力的鬥爭下不幸離世，作為長子的他自動繼承家業。持續變得頹廢無心經營自然被他兄弟的野心橫行所摧毀，奪去了領主的頭銜並被貶到鄉下。71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcVFDRUiQg5

『他確實也是蠻可憐的。』婦人有點惋惜地說，『好吧......，等一會再去看看吧。』我內心對他的印象漸漸改變，雖然我並不想摻和別人的家事，但想到我不也是曾經有過孤立無援的經歷嗎？71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqm9p1jJLl8

當我們沿路返回到大閘的鐵欄時，正好就看見西服革履的管家鬼鬼祟祟地整理好昨夜放下的水果食物，我上前攔截準備逃走的管家。我說出我冒險者的身份，原本要來執行他的委托，管家才放心跟我談話。 71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSI060xgsXB

在屋內的走廊，男人點起燭火並手持走到大廳的樓梯來到一幅肖像畫前，兩眼無神默默注視畫像，越發疲憊黯淡的眼圈。他長年沒有接觸陽光的身體，無力的骨骼和肌肉支撐不住舉起手臂，抖顫的微弱火光照明了畫中的一部份。窩心的全家福逐漸顯現，溫馨的畫像並沒有打動男人的情感。71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV4bD2LtUoA

老化塵封的邊框，只有在畫中的中間位置成熟老態的女人的臉有用手掌擦過的痕跡，驟然壁畫的釘加速鬆動，沒有鐵釘的支撐壁畫斜向搖晃吊掛著，下一秒便砸向男人，在房屋外只聽到玻璃清脆碎裂聲。 71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkDvQxlYCOS

我的視野在漆黑的房子只能看見倒下的男人和持續燃燒的明亮火焰，我跑上樓梯打算先救出被壓倒的他，漸強的火焰灼燒我的皮膚，我退後並脫下披風拍打被點燃的地方，我連同頂著炎熱的管家以蠻力將他由火海中抽身。71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAssJJ3extS

芙蕾西雅在看見燃燒的一瞬便應變地騎上菲衝刺回去村莊的路，在我們遠離並檢查他中度燒傷的大腿和手臂時，菲咬著溢滿的水桶歸來。71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpkKaSjaOpV

來回幾趟的滅火，靠著其他居民的協力聯手，順利迅速熄滅火勢。只損失了一幅畫已經是不幸中的大幸，但男人卻不是這樣想。 71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ87mDVMOXbk

悲痛欲絕的他此時彷佛失去了家人，也許這幅畫的意義對他來說不只是物件，亦是他唯一能感受到往日的親情，唯一的聯系。71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvrbeFPF6d8

在他從危險後脫身的第一句話就是：『我不想活了…… 殺了我吧… 一切都無所謂了！ 真的完結了……。』過大的衝擊讓他陷入昏迷，管家後悔莫及，覺得愧對了他曾宣誓要守護他的職責。管家差點就想赴死來償還他的失職，幸好我及時制止他愚蠢的想法。 71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡACZlTbT8VE

已經化為灰燼的全家幅是作為其他家庭成員成年的記念，管家向我透露他真實的童年背景。在他的回憶中，男人的父親是管家的僱主，忙碌的製品工場生意令他的父親忙於工作並沒有時間理會小孩，雖是中產階級的家庭，卻只讓他過著艱苦的日常。71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3FtbM4qoYS

作為家族中的長子，他並不受他繼母的愛戴，但他非常渴望被愛，渴望被認可到接近瘋癲的地步。他從少就擁有的經商天賦也被埋沒於糞土中。 71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfpseTYDRXj

雙親的“意外”死亡對他的打擊極大，生活已經不能再差的景況竟再被他的兄弟背後捅刀，奪取了他在城內生活的權利。我在知曉他人背後的故事不禁驚訝於真實的惡意。71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh4gwhCXbOP

『哪麼那間睡房是……？』我問，『在一個月前我忍受不住他每天的頹喪，不斷的嘗試自殺，到最後的崩潰性情特變，轉向把極端的情緒發洩在我身上，超過侍從能夠承受負荷的底線』。71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE3RGlaQjGg

『但我知道他並非自願成為一個爛人……，那間房間的配置跟他的舊睡房的格局一模一樣。我在臨走前替他換鋪床單，清潔每一個會積灰塵的角落，看來他是沒有用過啊…… 。』管家滿面愁容回憶起往事。 71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0G21fLtVLN

他再次醒來，被灼傷的疼痛折磨，管家非常擔心他的傷勢。我發覺他的表現沒有變得極端，反而顯得異常清醒，他只提出了一個要求。71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDvqHjYDnAY

我們扶著他回到剛才的地方，餘燼的碎片，炭化的木板營造淒涼的氣氛。他雖流下了不捨的眼淚，但他堅韌的抗壓力和韌性讓他沒有嚎啕大哭。『你是冒險者吧，我想委托你幫我完成一樣任務。』他收拾情感下定決心認真地向我提出請求。 71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMPp0NqRwt5
