I, a mercenary, became a beautiful silver-haired boy

After struggling for half an hour, Elena exhaled a foul breath while looking at the wild boar lying on the ground unable to move.

"I can save the bleeding step. I hope your meat is delicious enough for me to feel that this trip is worth it."

Elena complained and wiped the sweat from her forehead, squatted down and peeled the skin of the wild boar along the wound.

This kind of fur with extremely poor texture and too hard is not suitable for human contact. It is not comfortable enough for making clothes or carpets, so the value is not as much as imagined.

However, the rare minerals on the fur are very valuable. The most important reason why Elena is so excited and can't wait to accept the commission is to collect these minerals.

The battle with the bandit group has damaged most of his equipment, and he urgently needs to make a new set.

Of course, Melissa is fully responsible for all this. Although no one said it, Elena's equipment has been customized by Melissa by default.

Although there is no shortage of technicians to make equipment, the material aspect is not something Melissa can help solve.

Even for blacksmiths that often help people forge ironware, the amount of ore that can actually make equipment is quite scarce.

After all, rare ores are often expensive, and many blacksmiths simply don't have the money to purchase these ores, so they can only forge ordinary ironware.

Even though Elena's master is a very famous blacksmith, he is famous for his cheap prices in addition to his craftsmanship.

After all, they all live in the South City District, and the blacksmith's family is not very rich. At the beginning, they developed under the slogan of affordable prices.

Before, when he was invited to forge by others, the other party also called for it because of the low price. Technology is not very important. After all, the client does not have enough advanced materials to support the creation of more advanced equipment.

Elena thought that if he brought these ores back, Sister Melissa would be very happy. Thinking of this, Elena seemed to have rarely seen Melissa smile.

Occasionally, he only saw the corners of her mouth raised, and he really didn't have much impression of her showing a bright smile.

Just as Elena was busy dealing with the monster's corpse, a look of grievance came from the side.

Elena didn't care at first, but the atmosphere inexplicably became a little weird. He couldn't bear it anymore and turned his head. He saw Kalina standing not far behind him, playing with her fingers with her head down.

Sensing Elena's sight, Kalina came over carefully, raised her head slightly, looked at Elena with tearful eyes, and said with a trembling mouth

"I'm sorry Elena, I... I messed up."

Thinking back to her out-of-control appearance just now, Kalina felt very guilty.

She was afraid of disappointing Elena. After all, she felt that if she didn't show the role she should have, Elena would give up on her and abandon her completely.

Elena was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect Kalina to say that. It was true that Kalina's behavior just now was very dangerous, but in the end it was just a close call.

Neither he nor Kalina was injured, and the prey was successfully subjugated. There was no need to dwell on the previous small mistakes.

"It's okay, kid. Everyone has a first time. If it doesn't work, it doesn't matter. Just find a way to correct it later. Don't take it to heart."

Elena rubbed Kalina's head with a bit of amusement. This child is good in every way except that she likes to get stuck in a dead end.

When children don't make trouble or make mistakes, even adults occasionally do things that make people's blood pressure soar. People like Kalina who know how to take the initiative to admit their mistakes are much better than these people.

"But Elena, you can control your emotions. I can't even suppress my anger."

This level of comfort didn't even work for Kalina. She was really entangled in the mistake she just made, and she looked like she couldn't get out of it unless she found a way to solve it.

"You're comparing me to someone else? I'm afraid that's not appropriate. You're only as old as I am. There's no need to set such high standards."

Elena was a little helpless. He had actually lived for so many years. If he couldn't control his emotions, then he had lived for nothing.

And things can't be generalized. As a pure-blooded white dragon, Kalina's rich blood makes her more susceptible to instinct.

The dragon race has always been vicious and warlike. No matter what branch of dragon it is, it has a bloodthirsty instinct, even white dragons. As a young dragon that was born not long ago, Kalina was led by her instincts for a long time.

Even Kalina herself probably couldn't imagine that she would lose control before the battle.After all, there is no experience, and things that have never been experienced are so unexpected.

Kalina did not speak, but just lowered her head in a sullen mood. She could not accept her failure, not because she had high expectations for herself, but simply because she was insecure.

If she did not show enough value, she was afraid of being abandoned by Elaina. Even if Elaina did not speak, she would not have the face to stay by Elaina's side.

She thought she was a burden, and the newborn child had a powerful enemy. Strictly speaking, it was indeed a hot potato, but Elaina was willing to hold it firmly in her hands.

"Don't be discouraged, self-blame can't solve any problems, summarize the experience of failure and apply it to the next action. People always have to look forward. It is meaningless to keep entangled in failure. Thinking about how to play a role next time is the right idea."

Elaina was a little tired of talking about the truth. To be honest, he regretted it a little after saying these big truths. Is it really useful to talk about these things with children? He was very skeptical about it.

"Don't dwell on failure, look toward future success?"

But what surprised him was that the truth he had squeezed out seemed to have played a crucial role in inspiring Kalina.

She raised her head, which had been lowered just now, and her thoughtful expression seemed to be deeply touched.

"I understand, Elena. I will work hard next time, and I will never be as useless as I am now!"

Kalina's eyes shone with light, and she clenched her fists with determination, revealing her perseverance while being cute.

Seeing this scene, Elena opened her mouth dryly, but he couldn't be happy to see Kalina so motivated.

He didn't want to put too much pressure on a child. Kalina had just come to this world not long ago, and there was really no need to work hard on such things.

But he couldn't deprive Kalina of the meaning of life. It was not the right choice to treat a mature child like the other party as an ordinary child. He still had to see what he thought.
