"What do you need the money for?"
Kael's expression fell:
"Count and Countess fell in battle, and the upper echelons of the Mining Workshop were completely replaced. Now the workshop is demanding that we mine more ore. If we don't meet the standards, they will deduct our wages..."
"My father has already passed away from illness, and only my brother and I are left at home. Before, we had our father to protect us, and the workshop wasn't so strict, but now... everything is different."
"To treat my father's illness, I racked up a lot of debt..."
"I need to pay it back... and I need to provide for my family... so I must mine more silver."
"Sorry, Miss Black Dragon, I won't be able to come here as often anymore."
After listening to Kael's explanation, I fell silent.
To be honest, I don't really understand kinship, nor do I really understand family.
As a giant dragon, I also cannot fathom the meaning and value of money to mortals.
But I felt a strange impulse.
