Nina looked at the dragon wings covered in black scales, and then at the tight and dilapidated walls obscured by Gordon's body, and her eyes bloomed with inexplicable brilliance.

Although she is less than ten years old, she is not a child who does not know anything, and her experience may be richer than that of many adults.

First grew up in an orphanage, with no friends at all except Grandma Oran and Sister Celia.

At that time, the children in the orphanage seemed to have only two names for her, either "mongrel" or "monster". ”

She grew up listening to them.

The children in the orphanage seem to be on the same page, slamming her for being gregarious, and Nina is isolated, and she grew up in this somewhat desperate environment.

But she didn't dare to disturb Grandma Oran, or complain, so that Grandma would definitely be angry and sad.

But she didn't want to make Grandma Oran sad, not at all.

It wasn't until later, when Celia's sister came to the orphanage, that she had someone to talk to.

Unfortunately, the good times didn't last long, and it didn't take long for Celia's sister to be adopted.

Then Grandma Oran was gone, and her only shelter, the orphanage, was torn down by the aristocratic lord to build a shop.

A trading road near the capital of freedom, land in a town, is still worth a lot of money.

It was a waste to build an orphanage, and if it weren't for Orlan's high reputation among the townspeople, the nobles would have torn down the dilapidated orphanage and lacked repair.

After that, Nina traveled from Blanche to the dark streets of Calando, where she crawled and rolled for a year, and felt the malice in the hearts of countless people.

There are those who covet her appearance, there are those who are angry at her unjust blood, and of course, there is the biggest point, which is poverty.

She had no money, and if she hadn't met a few "kind" adventurers along the way, she would have died in the wilderness between Blanche and Calando.

Died at the hands of goblins, gnolls, kobolds, I heard that they eat people, and I heard that the larger tribes would keep humans in captivity like cattle and sheep, and if Nina hadn't met them, it would have ended up like this.

However, the reason why they saved Nina was also to bring it to Free City and sell it for a good price, after all, there are not many nobles in the city.

After Nina woke up in the middle of the night and overheard the truth about the adventurer's chatter, she took advantage of the darkness to escape.

Fortunately, at that time, the camping site was not far from Karando, and the monsters within ten miles of the vicinity had just passed through a round of sweeps by adventurers and armies.

In addition, Nina was more careful, so she didn't encounter any monsters along the way, avoided them from afar, and then entered this majestic free capital.

She thought that her life might continue like this, or that after an injury and illness, she would not be able to get timely treatment, and die in the gutter of the sewers, decomposing into a skeleton.

Maybe if she was discovered at that time, no one would think that she was a "mongrel" or a "monster" when she was alive!

Sometimes Nina thinks like that.

If it weren't for Grandma Oran's last words, if she had to live well, she might have gone with the flow, and it would have been quite good to be a plaything, at least she wouldn't have to dig in the garbage heap and grab food from the wild dogs in the city.

It's really boring to live so tired.

Therefore, after she saw this dragon wing, which had already seen the embryonic shape, put it on her body, her heart was mixed.

Perhaps Mr. Gordon, who has the same eyes, will identify her as his kind.

And have mercy on her, and shelter her.

Nina thought, and then gently panned and carefully moved her body, her little hands supporting the dragon wings that Gordon had put up, for fear of disturbing the sleeping dragon.

"Hmm"

Unfortunately, it still disturbed Gordon, and the young dragon in front of him, covered in thick black scale armor, opened his dark golden eyes.

The dragon power in her eyes has seen the embryonic form, and Nina has a feeling of worship when she looks at each other.

It was as if what was in front of him was not a young dragon that had just come out of its shell, but an adult dragon galloping through the heavens and the earth, and the storm of its wings could blow people away.

"Mr. Gordon, I'm sorry to disturb your rest. ”

Nina said with some embarrassment, secretly wondering why she didn't take it any lighter, so that maybe she wouldn't wake up Gordon.

"It's alright, it's dawn?"

Gordon's eyes flashed with dragon power, and he quickly reined in.

He was originally a light sleeper, and Nina would definitely wake him up as long as she moved a little.

After all, he was still in the sewers, as long as it wasn't a deep sleep like deep sleep.

The vigilance of the young dragon is still very high, and sometimes the slightest sound can alarm it.

"Well, it's dawn, Mr. Gordon. ”

Nina responded, and then she seemed to react to something, and hurriedly said.

"I'm leaving, and Mr. Gordon might not be able to get in if he's any late. ”

Nina's words were swift and urgent.

Gordon didn't ask her why she couldn't get into the civilian area when she was late, just nodded slightly, and then looked at her quietly.

Seeing Gordon nodding in agreement, Nina quickly began to use local materials and began to make some modifications to her appearance.

This time, she didn't put on any more inhumane makeup on herself, but used some masking and sludge to cover up her fair skin, which made people think at first glance that this person was just an inconspicuous, dirty wild child.

It's not that Nina has let her guard down, but it's that this kind of outfit is convenient for trading in the alchemy shop later.

After all, those alchemists were all superior, and if they saw Nina walking in with a stinking body and red spots, I was afraid that they would have kicked her out at first sight.

She did all this very quickly, mainly because time did not allow her to grind any longer.

While those civilians have not fully woken up, she wants to enter the alchemy shop in the civilian area as soon as possible to exchange the goods.

If she goes late, Nina may be discovered by the do-gooders, and she will be in the same situation as the other day and driven out of the civilian area.

Being beaten with vegetable leaves, thrown with stones, and splashed with dung and water is already commonplace.

It didn't matter if she was cast, she was used to it, but it would be a great sin to delay what Mr. Gordon had told her.

After a while, before the morning fog cleared, Nina was ready to go, and after disguise, she couldn't connect the fair-skinned and immature little girl before.

"Mr. Gordon, then I'll go first. ”

She whispered.

"Well, be careful on the road. ”

After receiving a nod from Gordon, Nina tiptoed over and left the makeshift quarters.

Before leaving, she patted the somewhat awkward material on her waist, and her eyes were full of longing, thinking that these things could really be as Mr. Gordon said.

can be exchanged for a good sum of money.

After coming out of the residence, Nina's petite body flexibly shuttled between various obstacles in the river, and her posture was vigorous and sensitive.

This is also her housekeeping skill, although she has no strength, but her speed is not bad, otherwise she would not be able to survive in the mouth of the sewer monster.

It didn't take long to come to a manhole cover with a gap, and outside was an alley, the third alley of the Black Street.

Nina is familiar.

It's one of the safer exits, as it's still a long way from where the thugs of the Black Street live.

Usually there are more rats than people in this place, but out of the alley is the main road of the black street.

It's easy to bump into people, so it's impossible for Nina to walk this way except when she goes out in the morning and comes back.

Nina didn't know why, but she was still a little nervous, not knowing whether it was her wealth or the silence of the dark streets in the morning that made her a little flustered.

She waited for a minute or two, and after looking through the gap and seeing that there was indeed no movement above, she pushed the manhole cover with difficulty.

The screeching sound of the manhole cover grinding the ground made Nina's heart beat even more violently.

After settling a gap large enough to pass through her, Nina deftly climbed up the sewer.

Hunched over, he touched the tail vertebrae that were a little sluggish through the linen, and entered the misty white fog of the early morning.

And under the sewers, Nina didn't go out for long.

Gordon also walked on his short legs and left the dwelling where he had slept for a day.

It has something to do.
