"My dear daughter...are you having fun?"
Even though he was extremely drunk, Wilfen still cared about his daughter.
"Well, father, I am very happy."
"That's good... go and rest."
"Good night, father."
Licaro returned to the room and tidied her clothes. She decided to wear this gorgeous dress to see off the little black dragon because it would be very grand.
Licaro was quite skilled in how to avoid the servants and sneak out. After she had sorted everything out, she took out the magic crystal lamp that she had prepared in advance from the drawer, then opened the window of her room and jumped down directly.
Licaro didn't suffer much impact when she landed on the decorative shrubs, but it did cause some trouble for the gardener who was responsible for trimming the flowers and plants.
Licaro skillfully avoided the routes of the night watch servants and quickly slipped out of the mansion.
Although there is no curfew in the city of Edfallon, it is more difficult to leave the city at night than during the day. Licaro also found a solution. She took out a rope from her backpack, avoided the guards, and sneaked down the city wall of Edfallon.
It's hard to imagine that this is something a little girl who just turned nine years old can do.
The snow was still falling. After leaving the city, Likalo ran quickly into the forest. At the same time, she turned on the magic crystal lamp in her hand. The bright light illuminated the surroundings and provided her with a good vision.
"Little Black Dragon, here I come!"
Licaro's voice was heard, and the light gradually became brighter, and then Licaro, wearing a gorgeous dress, appeared in Eloline's sight.
Eloline was stunned for a moment, because this was the first time that Licaro wore this type of clothes.
During the time they lived in the forest, Ai Luolin had always believed through her communication with Likalo that Likalo's family conditions should be good. Today she confirmed this. The clothes Likalo was wearing at this moment were definitely not something that ordinary people could afford.
Unless the productivity of this world is very high and fine fabrics are very cheap, otherwise, Licaro's clothes are enough to show her family status.
Thinking about the birthday party that Licaro had mentioned before, Eloline became more convinced that Licaro came from a noble family.
“Do my clothes look good?”
Likalo showed her dress to Eloline, who was stunned for a long time before replying, "It looks good."
"Hehe, hehehe..."
After receiving the compliment, Likalo smiled foolishly, and after she finished laughing, the atmosphere suddenly became a little restrained.
Normally she was very relaxed when talking to the little black dragon, but maybe because she was saying goodbye today, Likalo didn't know what to say for a moment.
The magic crystal lamp was placed on the ground, and the area around it was very bright. Eloline could see Likalo's expression clearly, so she took the initiative to say the words she had prepared in advance: "Happy birthday, Likalo."
"Hmm... Ugh! How do you know how to say happy birthday in human language?"
Licaro was surprised because she hadn't taught Eloline the meaning of happy birthday.
"It's a secret."
Since Xia said she didn't want Licaro to know about her existence, Eloline didn't tell Licaro that it was Xia who taught her this word.
"Tsk~ Just forget it if you don't tell me." Likalo stroked her long golden hair with her hand, then said a little embarrassedly: "Thank you..."
After that, she untied her backpack and took out the prepared crystal for taking photos: "Little Black Dragon, let's leave beautiful memories~"
"Hmm?" Elolin looked at the photo crystal in Licaro's hand with some confusion. She seemed to have seen this thing somewhere.
Next, Licaro carefully explained to Eloline the purpose of the photo crystal, and Eloline suddenly realized, isn’t it just the other-worldly version of a camera?
"Come, let's stand together and record the video~"
Licaro spent a long time looking for a suitable posture for herself and Eloline. After all, this was going to be a very important commemoration, so she couldn't be careless.
After recording the image, Licaro carefully explained how to use the image crystal, and then tied it to Eloline's dragon horn.
"Perfect! Now when the little black dragon misses me, he can just put his horn in the water~"
"Ah."
At first, Eloline thought that saying goodbye would be a little sad, but apart from the initial period of restraint, her relationship with Licaro seemed to have returned to normal, as if there was no farewell at all.
Licaro is also an optimistic girl. Eloline has never seen her cry, and after spending so many days together, she also understands Licaro's character.
It is very lucky to be able to make friends with such a lively, outgoing and sensible little girl.
The frequency of the falling snowflakes seemed to increase, and Eloline suddenly noticed that although the clothes Licaro was wearing were gorgeous, they were not very warm.
What's more, it's late at night and the temperature is lower than during the day...
Eloline felt it was time to say goodbye, and she also wanted Licaro to go home as soon as possible, as it was not good for her health to be so cold.
"Then I wish you a more wonderful life in the future, Eloline!" Likalo rarely called Eloline by her name directly: "Don't forget to come back and play with me, okay?"
Eloline had told Licaro before that she would sometimes come back to see her, and that she could contact her without her having to wait in the forest all the time. Licaro was very curious about how Eloline contacted her, but Eloline refused to tell her.
"Well, go home quickly, it's cold outside."
Eloline observed Licaro's expression. Licaro was smiling, and she didn't read any sadness in her expression, which made her feel relieved.
Although we are parting, there is no need to be sad. We just need to wish our good friends a happy future and look forward to seeing them again in the future.
Before flapping its wings and flying into the sky, Eloline looked at Likalo and said goodbye to her seriously: "Goodbye, Likalo."
"Let's go." Lika Luo stamped her feet in the cold: "It's too cold in the forest. I have to go home quickly."
"Ah."
Eloline looked at Licaro for the last time, then flapped her wings and flew away.
It is not easy to attract attention if you leave at night. Xia had previously provided Eloline with a place to go. There were few large settlements in that place, but there were many monsters and the like. Maybe you could find traces of dragons there.
If Eloline wanted to know more about the characteristics of the dragon race, she must communicate with older dragons.
Watching the little black dragon disappear into the dark night, Licaro's smiling expression gradually calmed down. She picked up the magic crystal lamp on the ground and walked towards home.
However, there seemed to be something wet in the corners of her eyes and on her face, and she couldn't help but wipe it with her hands.
Maybe it's melting snow.
PS: This is the end of the volume~
-------------
As of this chapter, the prologue has ended, and the next chapter will be the first volume (unexpectedly). I am not satisfied with my writing style and narrative, but I have been working hard to improve. Currently, I update 4k every day, which is considered diligent~
There are too few people in the group (hint)
The plot follows the outline, and in order to prevent the plot from collapsing, I always keep the manuscripts in stock and the published chapters equal, that is to say, if the book has 5 words, then my manuscripts have already reached 10 words...
So I'm revising the chapters every day, trying my best to make the plot more reasonable. If there are any unreasonable parts, I hope you can point them out.
Secondly, and most importantly, this book is not about a harem, and we hope to write a very beautiful sweet yuri story, and we don’t like stomach medicine.
In short, that's it. Thank you for your support. We will work harder! (Looking at the tickets in your hands)
Chapter 1 - Childhood Friend 001 Southern Wilds
Dawn rose on the horizon, and after a whole night of flying, Eloline finally arrived at her destination.
During this time, she passed by many human cities and towns, and even saw some places that looked like fortresses, but as she got closer to her destination, she gradually could no longer see the presence of humans.
This place was what Eloline learned from Xia. It was called "Southern Wilderness". According to Xia's description, although the Southern Wilderness belonged to the empire's territory, most of the area was uninhabited by humans. Instead, it was the home of monsters.
Therefore, in the southern wilderness, even Elorin, who is a dragon, needs to be vigilant. Xia also warned that Elorin’s current strength will face great survival challenges.
The area of the Southern Wilderness accounts for half of the entire area of the empire. You can imagine how big it is. The empire has built many large fortresses in the outer areas of the Southern Wilderness and stationed well-trained troops to prevent monsters from harassing other areas of the empire.
In non-war times, if soldiers want to establish merit, it is a good idea to go to the southern wilderness for garrison.
Eloline had flown over the human fortress city before dawn. She flew high enough and it was night, so she was not discovered. Now she was in the southern wilderness. She could not see any trace of humans, but could feel the wild breath of the wilderness.
Although it is called the Southern Wilderness, the ecological environment here is diverse, with dense forests, open plains, majestic mountains, etc. However, the empire has not developed the wilderness because there are too many monsters in the wilderness, and there are also many powerful monsters that require a great cost to conquer, which is not worth the loss.
After arriving in the southern wilderness, Eloline did not land immediately. While in the air, she used her good eyesight to observe the many magical beasts below that she had never seen before.
Unlike the previous Edfallon Forest, there are almost no ordinary wild beasts here. Instead, the magical beasts are not only large in size, but many of them also look very aggressive.
It seems that the southern wilderness is really dangerous, but Eloline is not afraid. Instead, she feels a little excited. Her original purpose is to experience life. If there are more challenges in the long journey, she will not feel bored.
Now, Eloline's small goal is to continue hunting monsters in the southern wilderness, enhancing her combat capabilities while maintaining her body's continued development.
Another point is that Eloline wants to find traces of other dragons. Since she was born without parents or fellow dragons, and the dragon clan's heritage is not an encyclopedia, if she wants to learn more about the dragon clan and her own body, Eloline can only find other members of the dragon clan to ask.
Fortunately, the dragon clan’s heritage contains a method of finding dragon clan members, which seems to be prepared for Eloline’s situation.
The dragon race itself is rare in number, and is divided into many tribes scattered all over the world. So in order to be able to find the gathering places of various tribes, many dragons will carve dragon language on boulders, rock walls and the like when they go out, in order to guide other dragon members.
Except for the dragon race itself, other races are basically unable to learn dragon language. At most, they can learn to communicate orally. It is impossible to read or write dragon language.
The dragon race likes to live in remote and secluded places, which eliminates the possibility of other races disturbing the dragon race.
If you don't follow the instructions, the chance of finding the dragon gathering place is almost zero.
Of course, some solitary dragons are sometimes found, and they have only themselves to blame for living so close to other races.
It was early morning, and Eloline had consumed a lot of energy after flying all night. She was in urgent need of food.
As they approached a forest, Eloline felt uneasy for the first time. She sensed a threat!
So she didn't land at all, but flew directly to another place. This is the advantage of flying creatures. It is easier to escape when encountering danger.
Eloline realized that the reaction just now was her instinctive reaction. When she sensed a threatening aura around her, she would issue a warning.
As soon as she arrived in the wilderness, she was almost in danger. Eloline had to take it seriously. This was no longer the Forest of Edfallon. As an underage dragon, she was likely to be in danger of her life in this area where countless magical beasts lived.
"Come on, this is more fun!"
Eloline flew towards the wide plains. The forest was densely wooded and the risk factor was very high, so she decided to hunt in the open plains so that she could give full play to her advantages.
The food chain in a region is basically stable. Since there are superior predators, there are naturally subordinate prey. Not all monsters are strong and aggressive. Therefore, Eloline discovered a kind of herbivorous plains monster. They are huge in size and have delicious meat. Most importantly, they cannot beat Eloline.
Some large herbivores can resist the attack of a single small predator, but now Eloline... it seems a bit too much to call her a large predator. She can be considered a medium-sized predator.
Eloline felt that these moving foods were prepared for her, and she only needed to hunt one to eat for a whole day.
Because they were in an open plain, when other dangerous monsters approached, Eloline was able to discover and respond early. So far, Eloline had not encountered any real danger.
Eloline's body is still developing. As she grows bigger, she can feel that her strength is also getting stronger. She believes that as long as she reaches adulthood, as a giant dragon, she will basically not encounter any opponents.
After a hearty meal, Eloline decided to start scouting the southern wilderness. She needed to know what was noteworthy in this area, and also see if there were any road signs carved in dragon language by members of the dragon clan.
Although they had experienced several snowfalls in Ed Fallon, Eloline saw no signs of snowfall in the southern wilderness.
The sky was gloomy and the air was a little humid. To Eloline, it seemed more like it was going to rain.
She flapped her wings and flew. The grass below gradually became sparse, and many exposed rocks began to appear on the ground. She could see endless mountains in front of her. The highest peak had already pierced the clouds and was surrounded by mist.
Eloline couldn't help but stare in amazement. It was the first time she had seen such scenery. Although she had seen it on the computer in her previous life, it was not as shocking as seeing it with her own eyes.
Now she even wanted to cry. She had died early with countless regrets, but now she had a new life and could see the scenes that she had never been able to see before.
As they flew closer, Eloline saw the vague outline of something at the foot of the mountain. She could hardly believe her eyes.
When she got closer, she finally determined what it was.
A house located at the foot of the mountain.
PS: I am updating 4k words every day now (I won’t be able to recommend it until next week), but let me ask you in advance, when I update more chapters in the future, would you like to update 2 chapters of 2000 words, or 1 large chapter of 4000 words?
Chapter 1 - Childhood Friend 002 Mutual Assistance Contract
Eloline couldn't believe that there would be people living in such a place. The houses at the foot of the mountain were somewhat like villas on Earth, two-story and covering a large area. The houses were surrounded by various flowers, creating a huge contrast with the surrounding environment.
However, it is worth noting that there are no signs of Warcraft activity in the large area around the house.
It only takes a little thought to realize that the people living in such places are definitely not ordinary people. After all, they must at least have the strength to protect themselves, otherwise they will easily be eaten by monsters.
Eloline originally planned to fly over to take a look, but after thinking it over, she decided to continue investigating other areas and find a suitable place to settle down first.
call out!
There was a sound of something cutting through the air, and an arrow flew past Eloline's wings.
Eloline's heart began to beat violently. Although the arrow just now looked ordinary, if she was really hit by it, she might die on the spot.
When the arrow grazed Eloline's body, she felt an indescribable powerful force.
A lazy black-haired woman was leaning against the door, holding a short bow in her hand. She looked a little sleepy, but also a little impatient, as if she hated the approach of the flying monster.
Any blind monster that dares to come near here, this is just a warning, if it dares to come again, it will go to hell.
