Regarding the update author, there will be a time when the author is trying his best to save the manuscript. Please be calm.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

Yana was a girl like no other from a very young age. This is not only reflected in her stunning beauty. When Yana was not yet 10 years old, her nanny discovered her stubborn independence and took every opportunity to learn the common sense of taking care of herself.

Her nanny said, "She would rather have the lace straps of her dress untied all day than have someone else tie them for her." Because she wants to tie it herself until she learns it. By the age of 10, she had already decided to avoid the classes traditionally considered appropriate for the noble class of a princess, and was interested in things that seemed unlikely to come in handy: sword training, horseback riding, bows and arrows, and planting and propagating plants, especially those of the foreign land, which people did not want to touch.

She had no scruples about running out for long periods of time unsupervised, and she preferred woodlands and orchards to the courtyards and gardens of the royal palace. She raised herself to be a tough, pragmatic girl. And be able to always have a reasonable wariness of strangers.

"Stand up straight!" Pressed against the back of his neck by a sharp object, Zoro froze instantly.

"You walk in and look like a funny turkey with a long neck waiting to be chopped off. Oh, relax a little. No, your shoulders should be pushed back, not forward. Yes, exactly. But do you always kick your hind limbs out like this when you stand up straight? ā€

Hind limb? Out-of-the-box? What a stupid adjective.

"Oh, okay. Listening to the voice is still a girl. Zoro couldn't see the other man's cheeks, and after a moment's hesitation, he raised his hands with a strange look on his face.

This small room is like a dark room. If he hadn't just kicked down an oak barrel, Sauron wouldn't have found it easily. And now, as his gaze scanned, with the help of a lamp and candle, Sauron felt that even a complete list of everything on display would probably not be able to describe the scene, and its special feature was not so much the chaos of items, but the effect of the combination. For example, a peacock's feather in a high-waisted boot, a doll next to a sword glove, and a pair of solid leather armor hung with a few lovely women's underwear......

"If I were you, I'd take care of my eyes." What Yana was holding in her hand was just a small whip or something. She didn't push too hard, just wanted to warn the uninvited guest, but she didn't want to scare him. After all, just by his height and size, this is just a little boy who is not threatening.

"If you have a dagger in your hand, my neck is bleeding."

When Zoro turned around, just as he was shocked by Yana's beauty, Yana was shocked by his face.

"You're the bastard?" This sentence rushed out without thinking, which made her feel a little regretful.

"You know me?"

"Just heard."

"And I haven't heard of you." Zoro looked at Yana, his gaze swept over her tall breasts, scanning between her forehead, the shape of her ears, and the lines of her lower lip, looking at a beautiful girl who was several years older than himself, and Zoro was sure that this was the first time he had looked at her.

Oh, a beautiful woman who knows me, and I have no impression.

Before Sauron could speak, he knew how stupid it was.

"My mother was also said to have been on a boat when she conceived me, but then she dropped me off at Dande ****** and then left. After my mother left, it was Israel's guard who took care of me. …… It is said that she also left me a necklace that she wore with her, but unfortunately Israel was banished along with the necklace. But I'm no longer an illegitimate child, my name is Sauron Dande, and I've been recognized by the royal family. ā€

In short, it seems to have lost control of the mouth. Zoro had no idea what he was talking about. He couldn't figure out if it was a side effect of the overdraft, or if he just couldn't figure out what to say. Although the first-level magic does not back, the consequences of the side effects are very funny.

"Have you never seen your mother? …… Zoro. Yana's voice softened and concerned.

Zoro rummaged through his thoughts. At this time, he has actually lost half of his normal sanity. "To be precise, I met my mother, when she gave birth to me. Speaking of which, I haven't been so close to another human since she came into this world. Through that sensory perception, it was an intimacy that no one could share with me. But she just left, and I never knew whether it was a liberation or a deprivation for me. ā€

"Every word you say is like a riddle, Zoro. But I can understand that I was also forced to leave my mother at a very young age, and was only allowed to see her once a year. Yana sat back on the blanket behind the door, tightening her collar and hood against the cold and wet air of the ship.

Zoro's clothes looked dirty, and Yana didn't mind letting him linger here, and even reached out to invite him to sit beside her.

Despite her expression as if she was asking, Zoro's response was crisp. "Thanks, though I don't know your name yet."

As he sat down and smelled the faint scent of the girl, Zoro suddenly realized that it might be time for him to wash his hair.

"You can call me Yana."

Yana looked at Zoro with a sad smile on her lips, but Sauron didn't understand what she was laughing at.

"It was a tough night for me. Yana. "As the side effects became more and more obvious, Zoro became more and more inadequate." It's just, what are you laughing at? Laugh at me? Laugh at yourself? Or laugh at everyone in this world. ā€

"No need to ask me, you should trust your instincts." Yana replied succinctly.

"You talk like a riddle!"

Her eyes seemed to froze with a glint of light, and Sauron suddenly had the idea of telling the riddle of the 'Sphinx Mystery' to the girl who knew her, but it seemed too complicated. Of course, Zoro didn't expect her to understand much.

"In one mythical story, there was a sphinx-faced monster named the Sphinx. It has a riddle that asks everyone who passes by, and the riddle is to walk on four feet in the morning, two feet at noon, and three feet in the evening. It is said that this is known as the most difficult Sphinx mystery in the world. If you can't answer, you'll be ......"

"The mystery is people." Responding to Zoro's astonished eyes, Yana shrugged, "In the morning of life, man is a delicate baby, crawling on all fours. At noon, in the prime of life, he walked on two feet. In his later years, he was so old and weak that he had to rely on crutches as a third foot. So, the mystery is people. Am I answering correctly? ā€

Zoro nodded, his drowsy head making him sit still, trying to keep leaning forward so he wouldn't fall on top of her. Then, with a look on his face that looked very strange to Yana's eyes, he shook his head again.

"You're only half right. The mystery of the Sphinx is actually the mystery of man and the mystery of man's life. The greatest mystery in this world is man. "What was going on in Sauron's head, he probably didn't know what was going on at this point. When he finally can't support his body and makes some movements in a daze, there may be people who don't like this behavior very much.

"You know what? This is actually an unsolvable riddle. Only by persistently pursuing it at the expense of oneself and without fear of sacrifice can mankind finally unravel this mystery. …… Since the birth of mankind, the unfinished problem of understanding is 'know thyself'. ā€

As soon as he grasped something, it made Zoro feel hot and soft. ā€œā€¦ā€¦ Man is the measure of all things. It is the measure of the existence of things that exist, and the measure of the non-existence of things that do not exist. It's like about the gods, I didn't know they existed, I didn't know they didn't exist. So the correct answer to this question is entirely up to you. I say they exist, and they are real. I said they didn't exist, and even if they were, they would be nothing more than a bunch of liars to me......"

The sensation made Yana's whole body tremble, and Yana raised a hand to stop it. But after listening to the rest of the part, her hand suddenly froze.

For a long time, Yana seemed to have forgotten what life was like, whether it was because her heart was cold, or if her heart was filled with something cruel and there was no room for it. Sauron's words made her tremble. "If man can really take the place of God and exercise the rights of the gods, then everything in this world will be free from right or wrong."

So far, most of Yana's knowledge has been learned on her own. She learned to read and count at a very young age, and she read any scroll, book, or even an ancient stone tablet when she came across it. Yana's intelligence frustrated the teachers at Fran's court, as she was easily distracted and often missed classes, but it didn't seem to affect her ability to learn at all, and she learned almost everything quickly and well. But all the knowledge that Yana learned was based on God as the measure of all things; Whether things exist or not, whether they are good or bad, is determined by God. Just as a servant is to obey his master unconditionally, a daughter is to obey her father unconditionally. To do otherwise is to turn your back on yourself and to turn your back on everything.

And today, Yana couldn't believe her ears, she heard and understood more from the mouth of a child than she could have imagined.

Perhaps Sauron, whose consciousness was already blurred, would not have known the famous philosophical propositions of the ancient Greek sages of the 5th century BC. What kind of waves will fall on a Yana's ear set off in her heart.

At this time, Zoro's head was writhing back and forth, and suddenly Yana felt that the sharp itch in her chest was beyond imagination.

She came back to her senses and saw a 10-year-old child, her belly lowered and completely attached to her body, and something hard was pushing between his legs against her thighs.

Sauron's mouth uttered something that humans could not understand. And his hand had already reached into a piece of warm and beautiful underwear, and when he pinched the firm RT, the tingling feeling made Yana even more annoyed.
