Rika had a dream, a long, long dream, in which her parents, everyone in the village were engulfed in flames, and then the flames swept over, and it was her turn next...

Rika woke up from her dream, she blinked, and realized that she was still alive, but her head was groggy and her body could not lift her strength. She remembered everything that had happened yesterday, it was like a nightmare, and in fact if it weren't for the ruins in front of her reminding her that it was all happening, she really wanted to think of what happened yesterday as a nightmare.

Unfortunately, this is reality, her parents are dead, or is reality a nightmare that can never be revived from?

The girl propped herself up, shielded her hands from the sunlight coming in through the cracks in the wreckage of the house, and staggered to her feet, smelling a fragrance not far away, which seemed to be the smell of roasted meat.

"The boy is awake," the white wolf sensed movement in the room and said to the wizard that he had learned the art of wind whispering that the wizard had taught him.

In fact, perhaps because she was too nervous, the witch woke up after only two hours or so of sleep, and she didn't break her promise. After eating a little bit of the yakitori made by the white wolf, he immediately began to teach the white wolf's wind language technique.

Wind language is actually divided into two runes, namely input runes and output runes, both of which are wind elemental, the input runes are used to translate other people's words, and the output runes can be used to translate their own words to others, under the surprised expression of the witch, the white wolf didn't take long to parse this rune, and used this rune to say the first sentence to the witch:

“Hello World”

The reason why I said this sentence was entirely because of the white wolf's own obsession as a programmer, if I didn't say it, I always felt that something was missing, although it was in English, the witch understood what the white wolf was expressing very well.

"Well, Lord White Wolf is really a bit unfathomable...."The sorceress felt that the white wolf was becoming more and more mysterious because of the white wolf's words, and at the same time, she also deeply admired the white wolf's talent in runes.

Mysterious, powerful, friendly, that's what witches now say about white wolves.

Seeing the white wolf lying on the ground, the girl who had just woken up couldn't move her legs, as if she saw the witch sitting next to the white wolf, so that she could suppress her fear and not scream or run away.

"Don't be afraid, it was this white wolf who saved us yesterday, he is our benefactor, and he will not harm us. The sorceress Alyssa hurriedly explained to the girl the harmlessness of the white wolf.

"It turns out that you saved us! I just lost my respect..."The girl listened to the sorceress's words, and immediately knelt on the ground, thanking the white wolf, seeing the girl's action, the white wolf decided to accept it calmly.

"It's just a gesture, let's have breakfast first, let's talk. The white wolf said to the girl, standing up and pointing to the pot where the rice porridge was boiling and the rack where the dragon meat was roasted.

It was also the first time that the girl had seen a wolf who could speak human words, and it was only under the wizard's explanation that she realized that it was a spell, and while looking at the white wolf with awe, she took the food, and it seemed that she was indeed hungry, and after a while she was immersed in the sea of food.

The white wolf asked the girl some questions and got a general understanding of the situation of the girl and the village: the girl's name is Rika, she is 12 years old this year, and she is about the first year of junior high school in that world, and of course there is no such thing as junior high school in this world. Rika's mother was a tailor in the village, and her father was a carpenter in the village.

The name of the village is the village of the valley, and the reason for this name is that there is a small stream that flows near the village, and there is a valley not far away, and the white wolf remembers that valley, and he came from there.

Now, the so-called village still exists, but the villagers are almost all dead, but the white wolf feels that the so-called village does not exist without people, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the village in front of him has been completely destroyed.

"Do you want to see your parents? Only they are not buried. The white wolf asked the girl, in order to avoid the plague, he gathered the corpses of the villagers and the mercenaries together last night, dug two large pits with earth element magic, and buried the corpses of the villagers and mercenaries separately, considering the girl's feelings, he has not buried the girl's parents for the time being.

"Well...."Rika seemed to be in a trance, and when she heard what happened to her parents, she reacted and nodded.

"I don't know if it's appropriate to do this," the white wolf said to herself, her parents were burned quite miserably, which may have left a psychological shadow on the girl, but he could not deprive the girl of the right to choose, she had the right to see her parents for the last time.

Rika walked to her parents, looked at their bodies destroyed by the flames, her body trembled a little, she stood there silently watching, after a while, Rika squatted down, kissed her parents lightly on the cheek, and then put them in the pit that the white wolf had dug in advance, and silently covered them with a wooden shovel, and the girl moved very gently, as if she was covering them with a quilt.

The white wolf watched the whole process silently, and he noticed that the girl's tears were rolling in her eyes, but she resisted and did not cry.

"What a strong child" The white wolf secretly admired, even he didn't think he could be as strong as a girl.

"So what are you going to do next?" asked the white wolf, turning his head to Alyssa who was beside the fire.

"I'm going to find a way out of the forest first, no, that's not the most important thing, I'm going to find the flower of life before leaving. The sorceress suddenly remembered something, and her eyes instantly became firm.

"Flower of Life? What's that?"

"It is a plant that grows in the deepest part of the forest here, the flower has a strange fragrance when it is in full bloom, the petals are orange-yellow, the shape is like a sharp sword, it is rumored that it only blooms at the end of the fire moon, this flower has the effect of resurrecting the dead and lifting the curse, I hope to find it to awaken my sleeping mother, Lord White Wolf, have you ever seen a similar flower?"

"I haven't seen it, but maybe there are such flowers..."Looking at Alyssa with a look of anticipation, the white wolf shook his head helplessly, his range of activities in the forest is quite small, so he doesn't know much about this forest.

"Is that so....?" Listening to the white wolf's words, Alyssa looked a little lost.

"Why don't you stay here first, although the houses are burned to the ground, it is still possible to build a temporary shelter with the existing materials. The white wolf proposed, and Alyssa thought about the white wolf's proposal for a moment, then nodded.
