The spring rain had just stopped. Under the dusk of late spring, the air was slightly moist. Under the tree, there were still leaves that had been stormy at night. Swallows flew diagonally in the air, and the spring breeze urged the branches. If this scene was seen by those wandering poets, they would most likely be in the mood for poetry. However, a voice that was extremely discordant with this scene came from the forest.
"Pa! The sound of a whip and a man's angry scolding could be heard from a dilapidated wooden house."I told you to run, I told you to run. If you didn't run away time and time again, we wouldn't have to spend the night in this godforsaken place. I'll break your legs.”The man cursed as he lashed out with all his might, leaving bright red whip marks on the body of a boy who looked to be only 2.3 years old. From the bruises on the boy's back, it was obvious that this was not the first time the boy had suffered such a lashing... His tender face was filled with uncontrollable pain, but his slender body was suffering from almost hopeless pain. That was because the mental pain far exceeded the physical pain, because the whip in the torturer's hand was attached with the torturous magic of mental lashing.
The little boy endured the immense pain and bit his lips tightly. He didn't cry or beg for mercy, especially his eyes, which had a maturity that didn't match his age. However, there was no fluctuation in them, just like stagnant water. However, if one looked carefully, one would find that there was a bloodthirsty hatred in the depths of his eyes. This hatred wasn't for the person who had beaten him. What kind of experience did a 2.3-year-old child have to have such a pair of eyes?
"Enough. Reese, do you want to kill him? Don't forget, he was a product that had already been reserved! If he dies, we won't be able to explain to the customers!”
In the wooden house, a burly man with a scar on his face looked fiercely at the one-eyed short-haired man in the corner and said,
A reservation? Goods? Yes, these two people were the legendary human traffickers, and this little boy who had repeatedly escaped was their cargo. The two of them could be said to love and hate this little boy. Love was because of the little boy's cute and handsome appearance, which made girls jealous, because it could make them sell for a large price. Hate was because the boy had repeatedly escaped and caused destruction, causing the little boy, who was originally treated as a precious item by the two of them, to not be sold until now. The two of them had planned to give up on the boy and sell him to a random family. However, a mysterious customer found them and bought the boy for a large sum of money. They were responsible for sending the boy to the place designated by the mysterious person. It was obvious that the boy's escape had led to the two of them having to sleep in the wilderness.
"Damn it, I hope nothing goes wrong this time. Otherwise, we'll die miserably.”
One-eyed Ace recalled the terrifying destructive power that the mysterious man had casually displayed. If Ace's guess was correct, that was a spell that only sorcerers could cast.
"Idiot! It's all your fault. You can't even take care of a child. What else can you do?”
The knife-scarred man roared at the one-eyed man Reese and walked to another corner of the wooden house, where their dinner for tonight was placed.
"Boss Lander, why do I feel so stifled? It seems like someone is staring at us? " I heard that a dragon has come to this forest. I don't know if it's true. Boss Lander, why don't we leave this place tonight?"”
One-eyed Reese frowned as he looked around at the empty corners and the forest outside the window. He whispered to Scar Lander. The strange feeling that shrouded Reese made him feel the fear of death. Reese was very sure of this seemingly unfounded feeling. Back then, he had escaped a terrible war with this strange feeling. Although he had to carry the burden of deserters, it was much better than being in the army.
"Shut up and keep an eye on that kid. Don't let him escape!”
Scar Lander closed his eyes to hide the uneasiness in his heart. As a former mercenary leader, he could naturally feel the terrifying aura enveloping the surroundings. However, he could only be trapped by the rain and could not leave. Otherwise, he would have already escaped from this forest that made his hair stand on end. The forest under the night sky was now the hunting ground for all kinds of magical beasts and wild beasts. If they were to rush out rashly, they would probably enter the stomach of a magical beast and wait to be digested in less than an hour. One-eyed Reese, who obviously knew this, could only sit at the side and watch over the little boy who was staring out the window with a blank gaze. He secretly prayed that nothing would happen tonight.
How long had he been in this world? This doesn't matter anymore, right? Because everything that belonged to him had been destroyed by that demon…The kind smile and familial love that he should have had again had nothing to do with him when the black dragon descended two years ago. The deep sense of powerlessness and the fear of facing a powerful person made the little boy unable to forget that terrifying scene.
That's right, this little boy was Ren Fei, but now he was called Reiner. Two years ago, he was reborn in this world and got the home he wanted. He spent two years happily. That day, when he was two years old, he went to his ancestral home in a small city to celebrate his second birthday with his parents. That day, his heart was filled with happiness, a feeling that he had never experienced in his previous life. However, this happiness that he thought would last for a lifetime disappeared when night fell, because the demon had descended…the black dragon that claimed to be the source of evil.
The little boy thought of the terrifying dragon and his body trembled involuntarily. His hands were tightly clenched in his palms, and a faint smell of blood slowly spread…The terrifying black dragon carried endless panic as it wantonly poured out its sinful flames. The entire city was completely covered in flames, and the weak and humble residents were burned to ashes in panic and despair. The sorcerers 'seemingly powerful spells only tickled the Black Dragon Akunollia, and did not cause any damage at all. At that time, he sat on the ground and stared blankly at the ancestral house that was burning not far away. After his father carried him out of the ancestral house, he ran into the ancestral house to look for his wife who was preparing dinner. At that moment, a monstrous flame descended from the sky and burned the ancestral house to ashes. The only thing that remained in the little boy's eyes was the wooden fragments that still had starlight flames.
"I will definitely avenge you! " I will…" The little boy's eyes were filled with bloodthirsty hatred. There were tears in the corners of his eyes as he muttered.
"Waah! A dragon! It's a dragon!" One-eyed Reese's terrified cry suddenly came from the originally quiet forest.
A dragon! The little boy's eyes suddenly contracted. He was deeply disgusted by this kind of wanton destructive creature.
"What? How…how could there be a dragon in this place…"
Outside the window, a giant dragon with a faint green glow in the night sky looked at the humans in front of it with its basketball-sized eyes wide open. It had long noticed the two humans who had trespassed into its territory without permission. It was just that it had been eating at the time and ignored the two ant-like creatures. However, when the two little boys under the care of the two humans took advantage of the negligence of the two humans to escape, it became interested. It was curious about the little boy's endurance under the whip, which was why it was here.
"Humans, you have trespassed into the territory of the great Wind Dragon, Anigram. Prepare to receive Anigram's wrath!”
The slightly opened dragon mouth began to emit a green light. A huge and terrifying magic power condensed around the dragon's body. The terrifying power made One-eyed Reese kneel on the ground.
"Please…please wait…Honorable Sir Anigram, we have no intention of intruding into your territory. We will leave now, yes, we will leave now.”
" If that's the case, get out of my territory…" Aniglime did not want to waste his magic power on the weak ants in front of him. Although it was a good way to exercise after a meal, he was not interested in the creatures in front of him at all.
Ah...! I'm going to kill you, you worm! I'll kill you!" Reiner rushed out of the wooden house. He seemed to have forgotten the pain from the wounds he had just suffered from the whip. He rushed to the feet of Anigram and used his young hands and feet to punch and kick its body. This kind of strength was not even qualified to scratch the dragon. Reiner did not care about this and continued to hit it desperately. His hands were bleeding from the dragon's hard scales.
Lander was scared out of his wits by Reiner's actions. He quickly rushed up and carried Reiner back. He said in a trembling voice,"S-Sorry. "Respected Dragon, this child is a lunatic. There's something wrong with his brain. He doesn't mean to offend you. We, we'll leave immediately.”
Reiner kept struggling in Lander's arms and shouted,""Let me go! I'm going to kill this worm! Kill, kill it. I will kill all of you so-called dragons sooner or later! Kill..." In order to prevent him from angering the dragon, Lander knocked Reiner unconscious and stopped him from shouting.
"Leave that little fellow behind. You can scram now.”Looking at the little boy carried out by Ace, Anigram said.
" This... Lord Anigram..." Scarface Rate was in a difficult position. This little boy had already been bought by someone. If he offended that High Mage... Rate thought of that mysterious person, and the thick and enormous mana around him made him shudder.
"What's wrong? Do you want to bear the wrath of me, Aniglem?”Aniglem said calmly, and the mana that had calmed down around him once again surged like boiling water. A terrifying pressure instantly filled the entire forest.
"No, no, no. If Lord Anigram likes it, I'll leave this little guy to you. We'll leave now.”The scarred man, who was sweating profusely, immediately threw the mysterious sorcerer to the back of his mind. What a joke. If he refused here, he would probably die here. As for the employer, he could only think of a way in the future.
After releasing Reiner, Lander and Reese disappeared into the forest.
"What an interesting little fellow. He actually wants to kill all the dragons.”Anigram looked at the fainted Delaina with interest. Then, with Reiner in his mouth, he flapped his wings and left the cabin.
