"Monsters, get out of here, this is not the place for you to come!"

"Get back to your dirty, rotten dark street, fuck off! that's where you're supposed to be, bastard!"

Rotten leaves, stinky eggs, and even spilled excrement, with the sound of the wind.

They all threw themselves at Nina, who could only hide behind a broken wall in a panic, shivering.

Even if it didn't hit her, the stench always lingered, but she ..... She didn't have a choice.

Nina's eyes were already squinting as if they were closed, but she couldn't hide the strangeness of her eyes.

She's a dragonborn with so thin blood that it's almost non-existent.

But the apparently obsidian-like vertical dragon pupils have troubled her life.

Especially in this city that has been baptized by fire dragons not long ago, humans with distinctive dragon characteristics are always unwelcome.

Of course, the list does not include adventurers such as powerful Dragonborn warriors, Dragonborn mages, and dragonborn warlocks.

It also does not include the nobles who openly raise dragonborn maids.

For example, the dragonborn maid with the blood of the white dragon is more popular in Karando, which is hot all year round, and her body is always cold, hugging her is like holding a piece of ice, but it is not cold.

Moreover, it is said that it is even more wonderful, of course, these mysteries are only known to those noble lords who have experienced it personally.

Therefore, the only person they can bully is a weak and unresisting outlier like Little Nina.

Nina had no fear in her heart from the intimidation of the residents, she was used to them.

But what worries her at this time is that she will be hungry again today.

If it weren't for the city-state's claim to be the capital of freedom, she would have been driven out of the city and banished into the wilderness by now.

You know, the wilderness is not a good place, kobolds and goblins, goblins and other creatures are everywhere in the wilderness like sewer rats.

It is said that every year, the adventurers of the Karando Adventure Guild bring back goblins, kobolds, and goblin ears to fill the gladiatorial arena of Karando.

Nina hadn't been to the Colosseum, but she had seen it from afar when she was rummaging through kitchen waste in the back street of the Iron Furnace Tavern.

Hundreds of feet high, many, many Nina don't add up to that high.

You can imagine how terrifying the number of monsters that can spread the dueling arena with your ears.

Half-leaning against the wall, she waited quietly for the abusive inhabitants to move away, and Nina touched her slightly shriveled belly under her linen shirt as it made a protest noise.

"Goo~"

A not-so-nice sound, which Nina hated to hear.

But she stuck out her head and saw idle children staring at her at the doorway along the road.

She could only leave them with a back, and slipped away before the stones thrown by the children arrived.

Nina doesn't have to worry about them chasing after her, this place in the Black Street, even the children in the countryside of Blanche know it, and it is notorious.

Since she can't enter the civilian area now, she can only go home before making plans.

After all, this is a dark street without security defenses, and a female creature swaying on it will become the prey of others.

Although now Nina had cut off her silver hair with a stone and made it shoulder-length short.

Then use plaster and other dirt to make it dirty, and cover her beautiful face.

The arms, legs, necks and other exposed places are also made of various colors of filth, making a piece of green and a piece of red, like old moss.

Like a sick little boy with a short life, but even then Nina is still dangerous.

After all, some of the little boys don't mind either.

Therefore, putting on a new makeup before going out has also become one of the necessary tasks for her before every trip.

Otherwise, if the gangs in the black street know Nina's true face, then even if she can hide again, as long as she is in the black street, she will always be unable to hide.

Nina navigated the courtyard walls with ease, avoiding the gang-thugs, or thieves, or goldfinger hangouts in the dark streets.

walked a relatively detour road, although the straight line distance home did not exceed ten minutes, but little Nina took a relatively remote road for the sake of prudence.

In Karandu, a little girl less than ten years old who has no power to resist is walking on the dark street, and the possibility of being hit by the pond fish is too great.

No matter what disease you have, as long as you stand in his way, he will cut you directly.

The weak can only drink hate.

These are all things that Nina has seen with her own eyes in the dark street.

Over the past year, Nina has seen many, many more with her own eyes.

She also learned a lot from these lessons.

She's a good student, and that's what Grandma Oran and Sister Celia say.

However, Grandma Oran is gone, and the orphanage that adopted her was also demolished by the noble lord, and it is said that it was to be made into a shop and sold to the commoners of the city for business.

Celia's sister left the orphanage when she was seven years old and was adopted by a kind couple.

She has also changed from a clumsy rookie at the beginning to a mouse in the dark street, slipping fast.

Soon, she was back on her doorstep.

A manhole cover is long gone, and only the sewer mouth of the swarthy hole remains.

It's also the way home.

The sewers of Karando are tall and majestic, like an underground city.

But there are also many monsters that live in the sewers, in addition to the common rat people, and the swamp frogmen in the sewage, there are also stinky sludge monsters in the sewers.

It is said that it is a mage, and every time the discarded materials are washed away, the magical creatures that are piled up are terrifying.

The most powerful thug in the black street, when he saw it, he could only run away.

However, the darkness of the sewers was like daylight to Nina, and the abilities given by her dragonborn bloodline were still somewhat useful.

Gave her dark vision, and also made her in the dark sewers.

Avoid the monsters and find a safe place where there are no other creatures except rats and cockroaches.

A long-abandoned sewer pipe, that's Nina's home.

It seems that it is in disrepair and uninhabited, and there has been no drainage and sewage for a long time anyway.

Anyway, Nina has been in the past few months, and she hasn't seen anything coming down from the pipe.

Nina now comes back to sleep, because the passage to the Black Street is closed at night in the civilian area, and it is sealed with a wooden board made of ironwood to prevent the residents of the Black Street from stealing or robbing at night.

It was only open early in the morning, and she came back to sleep now, so that early tomorrow morning, when it was dawn, she would enter the civilian quarters, go to the back streets of the Iron Furnace Tavern, and turn over something she could eat.

Thinking of tomorrow's plan, Nina couldn't help but swallow her saliva, she was familiar with navigating through this labyrinth-like sewer, and she was very skilled at avoiding those areas where monsters were active, in fact, avoiding it was not necessarily true.

She chose to walk directly through the area of the Stink Monster, after all, this magical creature is not aggressive against a human like Nina, unless you happen to bump into it.

With dark vision, the possibility is so small that Nina is still cautious.

After walking for about seven or eight minutes, Nina walked through a hallway, a few corners.

I got under an ordinary water pipe, and then climbed up with my hands and feet.

The water pipe was not big, but it was big enough to accommodate Nina's thin body, and there was even room for it.

After going up, she skillfully drilled into the corner of the water pipe and took out the only two pieces of "furniture".

Futon and "pillows".

The futon was found in a dry channel in the sewers, brought back and dried for many days before it didn't smell like a dead rat.

Nina sometimes wondered if it was the smell that attracted the cuties and greeted her like one of her kind.

As for the "pillow", it is actually an egg, bigger than Nina's head.

The egg was discovered by Nina when she discovered the sewer opening, and at first Nina thought she would be able to eat it.

But after trying a few times, it couldn't be broken, and the egg will have a little bit of temperature, so it's very comfortable to hold.

Therefore, Nina has been sleeping with the egg in her arms.

After all, sleeping like this is a little more fragrant, and it is still very warm, and it can also make Nina in her sleep, recalling when she was still in the orphanage.

She also fell asleep with a big pillow and listening to Grandma Oran's story.

It is said that in the story, such a big egg is a dragon egg.

But this egg has been away from its mother for a long time, and it cannot hatch, as Grandma Oran said.

Dragon eggs must be raised by a dragon mother, otherwise they will not hatch.

However, when Nina was holding the egg today, she noticed that something was wrong with the egg.

It doesn't seem to be like this before, this egg body is black and gray, and this flame pattern egg has been trembling.

It's as if there's something in it.

But the tremors are not very large in amplitude and fluctuation space, like a heart.

It made Nina a little difficult to sleep, and even a little panicked.

She can't sleep if she holds it like this, and Nina has to give up her plan to sleep with eggs for tomorrow's food.

Choose to lie flat on this somewhat curved concrete floor.

But it didn't take long for Nina, who had finally fallen into a shallow sleep, to hear the sound again, but this time it was not a vibration.

Rather, it was the cracking sound, as if it were the sound of the orphanage's walls being knocked down, and she remembered it well.

She suddenly woke up from her half-asleep state and looked back to see a scene she will never forget.

She hugged many black-gray eggs that had not moved for days and nights, and cracks appeared on the surface of the shell.

The number of cracks is also accompanied by an increasing number of clicks.

Yes, that's right, it's the crack!

Then, in her dark vision, the egg was bigger than her head.

Cracked.

A black head emerges from the egg.

It seems to have come out too quickly.,The dark golden vertical pupils are also blocked by an eggshell fragment.,With that doesn't match the proportions of the body.,Some big heads.,It looks a little cute.。

But in Nina's eyes, when she saw these dark golden vertical pupils, her heart seemed to be clenched.

Adrenaline is rushing, and fear is expanding.

She couldn't hear her own breathing anymore, as if she couldn't.

This is......

A black dragon?
