Chapter 435: Dream Circus
In Sailian's impression, although Rachel and Ruan Chi know each other, they usually don't have much time to communicate in the academy, besides, the two of them, one is a human race (Ruan Chi is a human race on the outside), and the other is an elf race, how can the two of them not walk together?
Although Dream Town is a paradise with many residents of different races, under Nana's rule, after years of integration, the town no longer attaches great importance to some seemingly important principles from the outside world.
For example, cursed children like Betty and Herlan may be discriminated against or even treated inhumanely in the outside world, but this is not the case in Dream Town.
However, for ordinary people, the children of the curse are always a tragedy, the main thing is that they do not live long, and the combination of men and women of different races will inevitably lead to the offspring being the children of the damned.
Therefore, although the folk customs of Dream Town are relatively simple and open, they still attach great importance to the treatment of future generations, after all, no one wants their future children to be cursed children.
There are many men and women of marriageable age in Dream Town, and they are still looking for the same race as themselves, just like orcs will look for orcs, elves will look for elves, and humans will look for humans. There will never be a human man looking for an orc woman to come back as a wife.
However, what Serian saw now was an elf nestled in the arms of a human boy, what an incredible thing.
Just when Selene was puzzled, the stage of the circus show came to an abrupt end, and then a middle-aged man from the Terran came to the stage, judging by his dress and dress, this person seemed to be the head of the circus.
The head of the circus was in his early forties. There are two mustaches under the nose. The nose is huge. I feel like people have a very funny feeling.
As soon as he took the stage, he bowed to the audience, and then smiled: "Welcome to our dream circus, I am the director of the circus, Hannibal. Durrant, this is my first time in the land of adventurers in the HRE, and in order to thank you for your enthusiastic support, the next performance. The best performers of our Dream Circus will be arranged. ”
As soon as the words ended, four young men and women wearing performance costumes slowly walked out of the stage, and as soon as they appeared, the audience below let out bursts of exclamations.
"Oh my God, I'm not mistaken, right? Is that the Child of the Damned? ”
The four young men and women also attracted Ruan Chi's attention, because their appearance was obviously not an ordinary human being.
There are more or less other racial characteristics on their bodies, like the two teenagers standing in front now, one of whom has brown skin. The ears are pointed, but there are a pair of horns on the forehead. There is also a pair of fluffy cow hooves on the lower half of the body, and at a glance, it is known that it is a hybrid of a blood elf and a bull-headed orc.
The other teenager looked much more normal, but judging by his pale skin and pointed ears, he was supposed to be a hybrid of elves and humans, the so-called half-elves.
In addition to the two teenagers, the two girls behind him were similar, one girl had a pair of long ears on her head, which was a bit similar to the rabbit girl Ruan Chi had seen before in the Wolf Country.
As for the other one, Ruan Chi was more surprised, because she, like Helan, was a hybrid of the wolf clan and humans, and she was a wolf girl.
Four cursed sons with different characteristics appeared on the stage, and the audience immediately exchanged heads and discussed, you know, the status of cursed sons in the Miracle Continent is basically inferior to slaves, they are filthy things abandoned by the gods, most people have only heard of it, and have never seen it at all.
Now, four cursed children appeared at once, teaching those people how not to be surprised, although there is no law in each country on what to do when a curse is discovered, but most people's attitude towards the cursed child is still mostly repulsive.
After all, everyone doesn't want to be dirty, especially some believers in gods, if in some places where the atmosphere is more strict, maybe someone will rush directly and send these cursed sons to the stake.
Fortunately, this is the HRE, and this country is a country of adventurers with a relatively free atmosphere, so when the audience below sees these four cursed children, their reaction is more of a surprise, as if they have encountered some strange animal.
"Please don't be alarmed, they are cursed children, but they have been tamed by me, please watch the upcoming performance project by them in peace."
Hannibal, the circus master on stage, spoke again, and as he slowly withdrew from the stage, the four boys and men began to perform.
A soft music sounded, and each of them grabbed a ribbon that had fallen from their heads, and then slowly rose into the air, and began to dance, assuming various flexible poses.
This kind of performance fell into Ruan Chi's eyes, but he couldn't help but think of aerial ballet.
As the performance began, the audience in the audience did not care about surprise, and applauded warmly, and some guys even whistled exaggeratedly.
The Children of the Damned, although most of the other parties on the Miracle Continent are spurned, it is undeniable that they are all very good-looking.
Even the ugliest of them all, the Minotaur Orc, the Blood Elf Mixed Boy, that face was unusually handsome, not to mention the other three.
The eyes of the audience in the audience stared at the four people on the stage, especially the two cursed children, the performance clothes they wore were very thin and translucent, outlining well-developed moving curves, not to mention, the snow-white skin was still faintly visible, with the soft posture of the two of them when they performed in the air, twisting and twisting, completely killing everyone's eyeballs, and there were several unbearable men, and even drooling.
In fact, cursed children like them were worth a lot of money in the slave market, partly because of their beauty and, more importantly, because of their very small numbers.
Now that there are four cursed sons on the stage at the same time, the big men in the audience are naturally hot and hot, their eyes are about to pop out, and some people even have the idea of paying to buy them.
After the performance began, Ruan Chi only glanced at it a few times and didn't look at it, it wasn't that he didn't dare to be interested in the performance on stage, but when the four cursed sons appeared on the stage, he quickly noticed that Betty's expression became very stiff.
She is also a cursed child.
Rachel also seemed to notice Betty's strange appearance, and hurriedly whispered, "Let's go see Betty's sister." ”
Ruan Chi nodded, let go of Rachel, and touched Betty's side together, and when Ruan Chi reached out and put it on her arm, her delicate body trembled obviously.
Betty twisted her neck stiffly, seeing Ruan Chi and Rachel's concerned expressions, a pair of big pale red eyes were full of moisture at this time.
Seeing her crying appearance, Ruan Chi actually felt a slight pain in his heart, and unconsciously opened his hand and hugged her trembling body into his arms.
Rachel stood aside and watched, looking pity.
Because she left Dream Town, Betty deliberately wrapped the cat ears on her head with a headscarf tonight, and her tail was hidden under her skirt, looking like an ordinary girl.
Since she met Ruan Chi, she feels that she is really lucky that her life has not only changed dramatically, but she can also go to the academy like an ordinary child and meet many friends of the same age.
However, when she raised her hand to appear the four cursed children, she suddenly realized a terrible thing, as far as her identity had not changed from the beginning.
Like the four cursed sons on stage, she was an outcast of God, with filthy cursed blood flowing from her body.
Leaning on Ruan Chi's chest, Betty didn't cry in the end, and after she calmed down, she raised her little face and smiled at Ruan Chi, saying, "I'm fine." ”
"Are you really okay?" Ruan Chi couldn't help but be a little worried when he saw that her eyes were red and there was a trace of moisture.
Betty shook her head vigorously and whispered, "I just had some feelings, and suddenly I saw so many people of the same kind." Saying that, Betty smiled again: "But I think I'm much luckier than them, at least, I still have Ruan Chi, Sister Rachel, Sister Herlan by my side, and I have made a lot of friends in the academy, even if I only have less than a year to live, I am already very satisfied." ”
The lifespan of a cursed child is generally very short, and if you are lucky, you may live to be about 20 years old, and if you are unlucky, you will die at birth.
When he was in the space of the dead, Orlanktor once said that Betty's lifespan may be 5 to 6 years if it is long, and it may be less than 1 year if it is short. Betty is 15 years old this year and is approaching her 16th birthday, which means she doesn't have much to live.
This kid still remembers what Orlanktor said?
Seeing Betty's head hanging down and her shoulders trembling slightly, Ruan Chi couldn't help but sigh lightly, then rubbed her little head with his hand, and said, "Stupid, don't forget that you have inherited the bloodline of the Beamon Behemoth, maybe your lifespan is no longer affected by the curse, and you can't live longer than us." ”
"That's right, Sister Betty, you're very powerful, don't give up lightly." Rachel bent down and encouraged Betty as well.
When Betty heard this, she realized that what she had just said worried Ruan Chi and Rachel, so she nodded vigorously and said, "I understand." ”
Seeing Betty's spirits, Ruan Chi and Rachel looked at each other and smiled.
The performance on the circus side ended at this time, and there was thunderous applause from the audience, and Betty, who had let go of her knot, saw this and hurriedly applauded.
The circus master named Hannibal also came up to the stage at this time, and bowed to the audience with the four cursed sons to thank them.
Betty saw this scene below, and couldn't help but raise her head and smile at Ruan Chi: "Actually, they seem to be doing quite well, it seems that in this world, in addition to Ruan Chi, there are people who are very good to our cursed son." ”
Hearing Betty say this, Ruan Chi looked up from the audience and indeed saw the faces of the four cursed sons full of joyful smiles, which showed that the head of this circus really treated them as family. (To be continued......)
