Chapter 160 [One Night]
A night town in the light of the stars.
Gordon's sudden appearance did not alarm anyone, and there may have been a drunkard on the side of the road who heard the sound.
But their minds were already dizzy, and even if they saw the molten dragon outside the hotel by the candlelight, they were afraid that they were only in a dream, and this kind of memory.
Usually by the next day, they forget it completely.
What's more, Nina had already turned off the lights after finding out that it was Gordon, anyway, both of them had dark vision, and it was the same for her with or without light, and in this way, the risk of Gordon's exposure was further reduced.
The dark night where you can't see your fingers, and the color of Gordon's scales is a natural protective color.
And the reason why Nina made the move of lighting the lamp and opening the window was just a habit cultivated in the orphanage a few years ago.
Lights are lit at night so that Grandma Oran can find her way back.
After all, she's a dragonborn, and grandma isn't.
And after Nina turned off the light, she motioned to Gordon with her eyes whether she wanted to wake up Celia, who was asleep on the side, and received a negative answer, and after calling her to come out alone.
She deftly pulled up to the balcony and cautiously walked out of the window, her clothes were a little thin, like an ordinary long nightdress, the kind that covered her ankles, but she still couldn't withstand the cold wind in the middle of the night.
However, when Nina saw Gordon's call, she couldn't wait, and she didn't bother to change her clothes, so she jumped out of the window.
Gordon also stretched out its slightly fleshy front paws just right, catching the dragonborn girl who came out in only a nightdress.
Then he put her on his chest, walked to the open area of the town square, and spread his black wings, which had just been retracted for a short time, and the wind and the cold wind of the night converged again, setting off a wave of air.
Let the water of the fountain in the town square be scattered all over the ground.
At this time, Gordon had already taken Nina and flew away from Nanhai Town, heading towards the nearest hill dozens of meters high.
There, Gordon can be very comfortable communicating with Nina? It also doesn't need to deliberately keep its voice down to talk.
And? It also wanted to examine Nina's body to see if the Ouroboros still had any remnants of its hind hands.
After all? To see is to believe? Hearing is false.
It didn't take much for Gordon to land on the back of the hill? Stop at a rugged natural cliff platform.
Before Gordon arrived, could you still see some beast shadows with green eyes shuttling through the forest under the cliff? It is the most common wolf in the forest.
But wait until the innate power of the true dragon it carries is shrouded? These ordinary beasts, who didn't even have the courage to look at them, caught their tails and fled.
Gordon naturally put Nina in the middle of the platform? Then look at the silver-haired girl in front of you? Urn voice.
"How do you feel, Nina?"
"I'm fine! Mr. Gordon!"
Nina nodded hurriedly, indicating that everything was fine, and rubbed her sleepy eyes as she spoke, to show her sincerity.
After all? Nina was right, in her feelings? It was held in the claws by Gordon during the flight, and the cold wind didn't even blow it much.
Just know that the scene below will pass in a flash? And then it came to this.
What's more, because of Gordon's just the right in vitro temperature? Even if she only wears a thin nightdress? You can also enjoy the feeling of warmth all over your body.
It couldn't have been better.
Gordon looked down at the eyes in front of him, whether it was his eyes? Nina, who still seemed extremely satisfied, cleared her throat and said.
"I mean, before the mark of the Ouroboros, Liz said you're all right! Is it true?"
"Of course it's true, it didn't take long for me to feel the imprint dissipate, and I was still wondering at that time, and finally I knew from Sister Celia that it was you who helped me again!"
On the neckline of the nightdress with a lace trim pattern on the neck, the dragonborn girl's slightly immature face did not know whether it was blown by the wind or hot and red by Gordon, but the smile on her face was sincere and earnest, she said.
"Mr. Gordon, you saved me again, and Nina will remember what you did. ”
"When I grow up, I will repay you well!"
Gordon's response was to pat her little head with the claws that had put away his blade, and said helplessly.
"Isn't everything you have now mine?"
"What else do you say in return......
But Nina obviously didn't think so, she held her head high, looked at the dark golden pupils that were almost bigger than her head, and said seriously.
"I just want to prove that, Mr. Gordon, I didn't save the wrong person!
As a child, she was extremely insecure, and she only found pleasure and satisfaction when she felt needed by someone she cared for.
And Gordon looked at Nina in front of him like a kitten, and didn't know what to say for a while.
It seems that I really underestimated her.
From Nina's body, it really saw a quality unique to a mage, that is, persistence.
Nina was able to master the Zero Ring Spell in just a few months, and in addition to talent, it also came from this factor to a certain extent.
Therefore, in order to make up for the mistake just now, Gordon gently rubbed Nina again, and took the initiative to put her favorite tail in front of her eyes.
Although the black tail has changed from the thickness of Nina's forearm to the extent that Nina can't hold it with both hands together, it does not hinder Gordon's apology.
Nina was also happy to accept.
She held Gordon's tail like a koala, and her delicate little hands rubbed the scales of Gordon's tail, which was one of the things she wanted to do the most, and this time Gordon took the initiative to send it to the door, and she would not let go of this opportunity.
But all the fun is fun, and Gordon still hasn't forgotten one of the purposes of coming to Nanhai Town.
Asking about Nina's current situation was just a purpose.
Another purpose of coming to Nanhai Town.
It's to ask Celia to help it, from the magic shop in the city, to change the Transfiguration scroll back, the previous two have been used up by it, and by the way, deal with some less conspicuous equipment.
For example, demonized weapons or something, and some expensive spellcasting materials that it doesn't use.
The reason why I want to change the Transfiguration scroll is mainly Gordon, and I think it will definitely be indispensable in the future.
But it is not a dragon like a metal dragon that is naturally good at transformation, and its magical talent may be compared to that of a black dragon, not even a green dragon.
Not to mention the most difficult school of transfiguration among mages to learn.
If possible, Gordon would like to go straight to his stomach and buy a high-level Transfiguration ring, but this is often rare and unattainable, and even though Karando is a big trading city, there is no guarantee that there will be a Transfiguration Ring here.
So Gordon retreated and kept a few Transfiguration scrolls for now.
Of course, it is also for the next trip to the plane, to prepare for a rainy day.
In case it teleports to a plane, the hinterland of the human kingdom, or the center of enemy monsters.
If it doesn't want to be chased, the Transfiguration Scroll is very necessary.
Otherwise, with its huge size, it is difficult to hide.
Nina, on the other hand, listened to Gordon's new assignment to her, while holding her tail and refusing to let go.
"It's obviously a task for Sister Celia, just wake her up, why did you ask me to pass the word. ”
Nina complained, and those who knew her well knew that her complaint was that Gordon hadn't assigned her a task.
Obviously, she is also very capable.
Gordon, on the other hand, shook his tail and quipped as Nina looked up and down on her tail.
"Then can you bear to let your sister Celia blow the cold wind?"
"Of course not!"
Nina vetoed it flatly, and because of the shock, she held her tail in her hand a little tighter.
"Cold wind, it's good for her to blow alone!"
And Gordon, after explaining the matter, began to talk about the recent situation of the past few days, as if chatting with family, and asked Nina about her reverie for the future.
And Nina's future is simple and pure.
For example, get Mr. Gordon a small hill of gold coins, and grow up quickly to learn spells to help him, so I won't talk about that.
But when Gordon heard, he spoke of Nina's love, or hope.
Gordon was still a little surprised to be able to have a field that belonged to her.
But if you continue to listen to it, you will understand that this is a kind of obsession, which is commonly known as feelings.
Because when Nina was in the orphanage, she was very envious of those who had fields, because when she was young, she felt that if she owned heaven and earth, then they would not have to worry about starvation.
However, often the fields were controlled by the minor nobles, and it was difficult for the commoners to divide the cultivated fields.
So, Nina takes this very seriously.
In response, Gordon waved his hand and gave Nina the cultivated fields of Rika Island.
Nina was overjoyed, and began to ask about the type of farming, and then babbled on some of the superficial farming knowledge she had learned from Grandma Oran.
And Gordon looked at the excited eyes of the dragonborn girl in front of him, and he felt an indescribable sense of accomplishment.
Because it looks like Nina is happy when it looks.
Sometimes, it makes it feel.
At least, it changed something, came into this world for a few months, no, did nothing.
......
This night, it's still a long time.
The whispers on the rock platform are like flowing water, gurgling and flowing, never stopping.
Until the golden light of the vast coast first appeared, and the hazy shimmer illuminated the entire forest with verdant greenery.
Nina stepped on the morning dew of the grass and said goodbye to the black dragon that sent her back in the woods.
Returned to the town of Nanhai, a temporary hotel to live in.
The Adventurer's House.
