"In that case, you can go straight in, right?" Asa's words woke Valerica, who was in deep thought, and realized that it was not the time to think about this, and Valerica immediately took her daughter's hand and shouted, "Yes! But we need to hurry! The barrier has been lifted, and the dragon named Dunaville will definitely notice it! You're going to get out of here before it comes back! ”

"Dunaiville? There are dragons here too? ”

"I don't have time to explain to you, you're waiting outside! I'll take Serana to get the Elder Scrolls! ”

Asa frowned, it seemed that Valerika still didn't believe in herself, and then she frowned again, as long as she believed in Serana, it really didn't matter if she trusted herself or not. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info but at this time, a strange feeling welled up in Asa's heart, and he quickly turned his head, and the huge dragon's eye could still see the figure kneeling on the ground in the distance even if it was far away. Immediately, a voice ignored the distance and went straight into Asa's head.

"Alduin, the Eater of Worlds, Lord of Dragons, is above, and Duneville, the feared Dragon, is here to salute you."

……

"Serana, this is the second copy of The Elder Scrolls, you can take it." Valerica opened the long wooden box she was holding, and another Elder Scroll lay quietly inside.

"......" Serana looked at the Elder Scrolls in the wooden box with some complications, and she had reason to resent it for destroying her own family; She also has reason to rejoice, as it can help herself stop her father's conspiracy. Just as she stretched out her hands to pick up the Elder Scrolls, Valerica suddenly reached over and grabbed her hands, startling her.

“？” Looking at her mother with an inquiring gaze, Serana was not worried about her mother's temporary change of fortune and decided not to hand over the scroll to herself. It was precisely because of her confidence in her mother that Serana couldn't guess what she meant at this time.

"You really ...... Do you believe in the dragon out there? "With her daughter alone, Valerica no longer has to maintain her previous cold arrogance in front of Asa, and at this time she is completely acting as a mother who is worried about her daughter's future." As you saw earlier, he's definitely not just an ordinary Dragonborn like he says he is. I've been in contact with the Dragonborn, and they're really powerful, but compared to him, they're nothing. ”

"......" Serana said with a heartfelt smile on her mother's face, "I know what you're worried about, and I know that Asa is hiding something from me. But who doesn't have a secret? My mother, as I said earlier, is a vampire hunter and has absolutely no reason to pay so much for me...... Mom, since the day I became a vampire, no man has been willing to give me as much as he did...... I know it's naïve to say that, but I'm really willing to give anything to believe him, even if it ends up being betrayal and merciless bayonets. ”

Valerica's tears rolled down, and she could no longer hold the long wooden box in her hand, allowing the Elder Scrolls, which the world regarded as treasures, to fall to the ground, but she only hugged her beloved daughter in front of her with her own hands, and cried: "My child, my poor child! I'm sorry, I'm really sorry! We hurt you, we hurt you!! ”

Serana, she may have a stunning look that is not the same as the present day, but what normal person would risk being bitten by a vampire to admire her beauty? What normal person would want to know her heart? What normal person is willing to stand up for her, or even follow all the way to this soul mound that is said to have survived from no living life?

If she weren't a vampire, there would be thousands of men willing to practice and fulfill all of the above. But there are no ifs, and the reality is this: she is a vampire, and a pure-blooded vampire who has undergone a brutal ritual and has been transformed by the demon god Moragbal himself. The girl who should have enjoyed the love of all men in the world has become the most feared and spurned monster in the world.

"Mother, I no longer resent you for sealing me in the cold, dark void, because it was there that the first thing I saw when I woke up was him, Asacheel. He brightened my life, and he gave me hope to bounce back on my feet. I don't dare to hope for a bright future with him, but I am grateful to be able to enjoy the full present with him. ”

"Silly boy, you're such a silly boy!" Valerica hugged Serana tighter in her arms, remembering the days when Hakong was obsessed with prophecy and herself was obsessed with admiring Hakong's repeated failures due to half-interpretations, and she finally understood how much she and Hakong had done to Serana.

The name of that hurt is "loneliness."

……

When the mother and daughter finally walked out of the burial ground after venting their pent-up emotions in their hearts, Asa who was waiting outside seemed to be studying how to lie down with one hand in the body of a dragon because of the long waiting time, and the scene was quite comical.

"Really, you're such an idle person." Serana smiled, then raised her hand to Asa and gestured to the Elder Scrolls she was holding.

"Oh, you've found it! That's great! Asa's eyes lit up, but he soon realized that with his current body, he didn't want to have a warm celebratory hug with Serana.

"Hurry up with the scroll, this is not a place to stay. Your name is Asa, right? Serana is everything to me, she trusts you a lot, and I hope you can live up to that trust and not let her be hurt by her father. ”

"Of course! This is the premise of everything. After saying that, Asa felt that something was wrong there, thought about it and said with some surprise: "What? Aren't you going to leave with us? ”

Presumably, if Valerika had left here with the two of them, she would not have been so handy about protecting Serana.

"Although I am not mentioned in the prophecy, I am the daughter of Cold Harbor like Serana, and I cannot risk increasing Hakong's chances of success. And the barrier here has been opened, and I can go back at any time, and it's not too late to go back when this turmoil is over. ”

"......" Asa didn't comment much on this, just looked at Serana, and the meaning was very clear, that is, to ask her if it was okay for her to do this as a daughter.

"Mother's concern is justified," Serana nodded, indicating that she had just known Valerica's decision, and then turned to Valerica and said, "I'm here to assure you, Mom!" When it's over, I'll be sure to come back and pick you up as soon as possible. ”

"Okay, I'll wait for you, my good daughter." Valerika also smiled in front of Asa for the first time, and this scene of mother and daughter looking at each other and smiling really made Asa feel very beautiful.

"Let's go! Otherwise, the dragon called Duneville will return! Sending Serana to Asa's back, Valerica urged worriedly again.

"Don't worry, ma'am! The guy ...... Never come to your way again! Asa smiled mysteriously at Valerica, and although the expression with a dragon's face seemed more like a threat, the meaning was conveyed.

Valerika couldn't help but be stunned, and when she was about to ask for details, Asa had already spread her black wings and flew straight into the air in the direction she had come, leaving Serana's voice drifting farther and farther away, "Goodbye, mother!" ”。

"This guy, before leaving, you will sell me Guanzi!?" Valerica couldn't help but laugh, and at the same time blessed her daughter in her heart: "(Serana, you may be too pessimistic, this dragon...... Or rather, this man...... Maybe it can do more wonders for you. ）”

……

"Wow~~~ Sure enough, I still feel the best when I walk on my feet!" After leaving the Soul Stone Mound, Asa naturally changed back into his human form, and even the clothes that disappeared when he had transformed inside returned as they were, which made Asa very glad that Mr. Ao still knew how to measure.

"Hey, now you can tell me what you meant by that to my mom when you left, right? What happened to that dragon you were talking about? Serana had already held back the question, and at this point, she could no longer contain her curiosity, and began to tug at Asa's sleeve and ask questions.

"It's nothing, it's just that after you and your mom walked through that door, the guy found me on his own." Asa said it lightly, but Serana was really startled, she remembered that Valerica was quite jealous when she mentioned the dragon named Duneville, and she couldn't help but subconsciously began to look Asa up and down, for fear that he was missing arms and legs.

Seeing Serana's worried eyes, Asa couldn't help but smile softly: "Don't worry, give it ten more guts, and it won't do anything with me." ”

"And what is it looking for you for?" Serana didn't quite understand this time, according to Valerika, Duneville played the role of a jailer in the [Soul Stone Cairn], and the two of them were a bit like accomplices who helped prisoners escape from prison this time, have you ever heard of jailers asking accomplices for help?

"Quite simply, it's a poor man, well, poor dragon, like the necromancers you mentioned, fools who have been deceived by soul suckers. Its soul had been absorbed into one by the stone mound, but it was still looking forward to returning to Tamarel, even if it was only for a while, so it asked me for help. ”

"Help? How exactly can it help? ”

"It's just right now, you come with me!" Asa grabbed Serana's wrist, and the two trotted to the laboratory balcony, where the passage was blocked, but the ground below was still open.

"Du-Nai-Weil!" Under Serana's curious gaze, Asa called out Dunaville's name to the ground below the balcony.

"Dunaville answers your call! I didn't expect it to be so soon, but I'm absolutely happy to see that happen. ”

Looking at the dragon that appeared out of thin air below, Serana opened her mouth in surprise, and then a wide palm and a smug smile suddenly appeared in her sight.

"This lady, it was a rude to let you ride the dragon alone last time, I wonder if you would like to give you the opportunity to ride together next time?"

PS: As a hint, there's a little easter egg when you re-encounter outside the Bone Ground after defeating Duneville in the Soul Stone Mound: if you ask why it calls you Kwanalin after completing the vanilla storyline, it will say "The news that the Devourer of Worlds has been defeated by you is thunderous even here". Friends who want to experience the feeling of being praised to the sky can come back to do the DLC mission after defeating Mr. Ao, and the Mi Sect Master of the Dragonborn DLC will also rarely praise you because of this incident~~~
