Can the sadness that magic cannot take away be offset by love?

The next day, when the sky was still dim, Aecilia carried a package filled with food and water that the two had prepared for her, and waved goodbye to them.

She turned around and embarked on her journey facing the morning breeze.

The further she walked, the darker the surrounding environment became. After walking for half a day, patches of black thorns appeared in front of her eyes, with no end in sight.

Thick fog that was so dark and purple surrounded the surroundings, dead branches and fallen dry leaves looked at each other in the distance, and a few crows were heard from time to time.

...a classic "brave's dilemma".

Aecilia recited a spell, froze a path for one person to walk on from the thorns in front of her, and stepped on it.

What does burning thorns and cutting down obstacles have to do with a weak ice mage like her?

As she walked and enjoyed the fairy tale scenery, Aecilia didn't feel bored at all, but she just missed the food she saw at the banquet.

...This world is novel, but there is really nothing delicious.

The end of the thorn bush is at the foot of the mountain. After going up the mountain, you have to be careful of branches, snakes, ants, rats and insects that block the road from time to time.

Although it is troublesome, it is still acceptable.

Halfway up the mountain, her vision became clearer. When she looked up, she saw a huge black dragon hovering at the top of the mountain.

Below the dragon is a magnificent palace.

Unable to go around the palace, she met the king of the kingdom.

It was a middle-aged, short man, wearing a high crown on his head and long golden clothes. He wanted to look majestic and inviolable.

He looked mockingly at the thin woman in the hall:

"Are you going to kill the dragon?"

Aecilia nodded:

"I can accomplish this difficult task."

The king asked her arrogantly:

"Why do you want to finish it?"

Aecilia faced the king's dissatisfied gaze and looked at his fat body with interest, and finally smiled helplessly and said:

"Besides me, is there anyone else willing to go?"

The king thought for a moment, then reluctantly said:

"Okay, brave man. I will give you the sharpest sword in the entire kingdom. If you can rescue the princess, I will also give you countless gold coins and jewelry."

He waved his hand, and an attendant brought a gorgeous long sword. Aecilia pretended to accept it respectfully, bowed, and walked out of the palace.

This was her first time to kill a dragon.

When she reached the end of the road woven with thorns and black mist, the evil dragon hovering on the top of the mountains looked down at her and breathed out a threatening breath. To her, it was like a howling wind.

She stood quietly in the wind, looking up at the giant dragon, and then discovered a tall black tower behind the dragon.

On the top of the tower, a silver-haired girl holding a book and wearing a crown leaned against the railing and stared at her.

Esilia walked closer to the dragon's body and tapped its ferocious claws with her hand.

"Hello? Dragon? Can you hear me?"

The evil dragon lowered its head and put its ear in front of her. This action stirred up the dust and soil on the ground and blew it up in the wind. Aecilia had to close her eyes and cover her mouth and nose first.

After the dust settled, she shouted into the dragon's ear:

"It is wrong to rob a woman from a good family. You should go back and study the "Code of Good Dragons" before you come out and become a dragon!"

After hearing this, the evil dragon glanced at her sideways, flew to the black tower without looking back, crossed his body and closed his eyes.

Aecilia shook her head slightly, sighed to herself, and then stacked ice blocks at her feet to make herself the same height as the princess and the dragon on the top of the tower.

"I said, what are you trying to do with a dragon snatching a human princess to the top of the tower? Just to follow the main plot? You can do it, okay. I didn't eat before I came here and I'm starving. Just let me complete the main plot and then Let’s go out to eat.”

The evil dragon's attitude of not paying attention to her aroused her anger at being teased by the academy and thrown into a copy for no apparent reason. Nine percent of her anger came from the involuntary sadness of being a student.

"Okay, okay, I know you are so good at fighting a dragon. It's not difficult to find food. You can't understand the pain of human hunger... Of course, you won't understand that a human who lives a good life in the real world is suddenly thrown into a strange place without even saying a word." The place is euphemistically called the feeling of experience... In short, whether you understand it or not, please tell me directly what plot you are going to go through. I really want to go out to eat as soon as possible."

The food in the space ball did not give her a real feeling of fullness. She was so hungry that her eyes were dizzy, so she had an aesthetic feeling of being spread out and working tirelessly while doing tasks.

The evil dragon who was directly spoken to had not yet replied, but the silver-haired princess on the top of the tower spoke:

"What is your main mission?"

Her voice is cold and elegant, like a gurgling spring in summer, clean and clear, and also filled with coolness and ice-coldness.

Her ankle-length silver hair reflected in the sunlight, and her face gave Aecilia a strong sense of familiarity.

"'Save the Princess.'"

She read it word for word without moving.

The princess closed the book and said calmly:

"Then you can leave now."

A golden crown was held firmly on her silver hair, and the chill between her brows and eyes spread from the inside out.

Aecilia tapped her forehead with her fingers, and then said:

"You are not in the same group, are you? I don't think you are unwilling. Don't rush me away. I have nowhere to go but to go back to that small place and be sold to a man who kills pigs. ”

She sighed affectionately.

At the same time, the evil dragon's body turned into a stream of light, and then its huge body disappeared, leaving only Ernest with long black hair flying and amber pupils that were calm and hidden with edge.

The three of them were on a platform at this time. Ernest and the "Princess" looked at each other. Aecilia was stunned and muttered:

"The school is so poor? Are students pretending to be NPCs?"

The two people who were about to speak fell silent together.

The next plot unfolded smoothly. Aisilia contentedly carried the sword stained with the blood of a wild animal on the mountain down the mountain and returned to the palace. She also did not forget to draw two ice shuttles on her clothes, and then He diligently patted some mud on his face and smeared some blood on his face, then reported to the king in a dejected but high-spirited manner:

"Dear Your Majesty the King, I experienced a arduous battle on the top of the mountain and finally defeated the hateful evil dragon. But the cunning evil dragon took the poor princess and fled in the clouds before I could completely cut off its neck. But it doesn’t matter, tomorrow night is a full moon night, and the strength of the evil dragon will be greatly weakened by the moonlight. If I go there again, I will definitely be able to kill the evil dragon and become famous!"

Aecilia spoke her heart out boldly on the spot, as if she didn't see the disdain and glint in the narrowed eyes of the king on the throne.

"The brave man is tired from running around today. Let's go and have a good rest for a day."

*

The king ordered someone to take her to an empty room to rest. When night fell, the waiter knocked on her door with a sumptuous dinner.

Under the watchful eye of the waiter, she happily enjoyed her dinner, drinking every drop of wine in the glass and finishing every dish on the plate.

Wiping her mouth, she yawned.

"I'm a little sleepy. Let's go rest first. Wait until tomorrow, and then I can take care of that damn evil dragon..."

She lay down on the soft big bed and closed her eyes happily and expectantly. Soon, the sound of even breathing could be heard in the room.

The waiter who was hiding behind the door quietly left to report to the king.

"When she wakes up, the dragon meat will have been cooked." The grinning king knocked the sword inlaid with precious gems in his hand and said, "A commoner, or even a woman, also wants to kill the dragon. His famous name?"

The waiter carrying the tray flattered: "Only the great King has the power to kill the evil dragon."
