Dark Iron Incident

"Okay, ma'am..."

Chiron wrote something on a not-too-heavy slate, and returned to the red-haired woman thoughtfully, and the child who had been kept in the dark naturally happily returned to his mother's feet, waiting to go Play somewhere else, or go home.It has been four days since she came out, and she misses the fire detector who takes care of her very much. She always thought it would be nice if she had the opportunity to take Tildi with her at that time, so that she could talk on the road and ask him what is this and what is that in the human world.

"take it."

Huo Mo, who quickly took the slate, changed his face instantly before he could take a closer look.

"……What's this."

"The names of the three cities I designated, you promised, you will not forget."

"—I want the name of that female beast!!"

"The name of the female beast..." Chiron repeated his words with some words, but the fire of doom who was in a fit of anger could not hear any other meaning at all, "Really not, Mrs. Dilmax, this child is Born of you, you are his only mother."

"...Wei, the only mother...?" Little Charmander, who didn't understand, tilted her head, but the woman who had no time to care about her smashed the stone slab to pieces, and the dead fire burned on her sleeve.

"Do you think I'm an idiot, Chiron?"

"I'm telling the truth. One of the three cities is the city of Piliwen. If you don't believe me, you can light the candle below to see if it matches your oath—oh, remember, Don't kill anyone, or I won't be able to say what will happen to you after you make such a big mistake."

"...give me her name."

"No."

"Show me what you just saw!"

"It's not within our agreement, ma'am."

"—You really think you're smart, don't you?—Don't forget, Chiron, you're not even a real monster! Don't play tricks on me!"

"I've said everything I need to say, and I've done everything I need to do. If you want to stay with the little guy for dinner, please let me know first, and I'll be ready."

"Mother... my lord mother, what's the matter?" Kenelie wanted to persuade her to fight, but she was pulled up because the woman grabbed her wings, and her back was very painful.

"—I shouldn't have brought you here in the first place! Ever since you didn't resonate with me, I should have—"

"Please wait a moment, Madam Dilmahaus." Chiron, who sensed that the other party was starting to act seriously, slowly stretched out his hand, "Why make things difficult for a child, besides, she was really born by you."

Dilmax's face was cracked again, full of evil looks: "...I gave birth?...I, gave birth?——I gave birth to the children of other female beasts!? No one can insult like this Me! No one! If you really have no ghosts in your heart, do what you did just now, and let me see what is written on that piece of paper!"

"Okay, I'll give it to you. I don't want to give it to you because you can see the spell I cast on it. That's my closed-door learning, so I can't let others learn it casually, right?"

Chiron didn't panic at all, and continued to go to the place just now to pick up the small jar. This time, he didn't ask the petal for the name, but wrote a line directly with the reed root, "But this is a new deal, you have to You have to pay for new things. Fairness is paramount, madam. I hope that what you do is also very simple. This petal has to go down the mountain and go to the city of Piliwen to open it. I don’t want to make any trouble in front of my house. Unbearable things come, this request is not too much, madam."

"If I find out you're still playing tricks on me, Chiron..."

"How can you say 'still'? I'm just following your orders. Believe me, what's written on this petal is what you want to know." The centaur said calmly, "I swear."

Cenelie, who was tormented by the pain, kept trembling, and before she could say goodbye to the hero in her heart, she was thrown back to the ground and rushed to the town below the mountain.

Chiron shook his head lightly, and smiled wryly.

It was not unreasonable for him to decide to be neutral back then, meddling in other people's business would only bring unnecessary trouble, and he had no reason to interfere in the family affairs of Warcraft, since human affairs were enough for him to keep busy.Poor that child, the only thing he can help is here. As for how to develop in the future, he has no control, and his prophetic talent cannot be used on creatures other than humans.

The little Charmander who was hiding in the sack did not dare to vent her anger. She had never felt that her mother was so scary, and she looked very angry.She didn't dare to think about what she should pick up after her mother said, "I should." The conversation between the two elders made her extremely uneasy and plunged into confusion.In addition, when the centaur scratched her head, she said an ancient language that she cared about, which made her feel a little panic about this sudden journey.

When my mother grabbed her wings just now, the strength was not a joke. She is too weak now and can be easily injured. Tildi told her a lot of reasons when she was not allowed to run too far before the beginning of the year, and she would not Too stupid to care.

Thinking about it again... my mother would tell Aris no matter what important things she did, if she hadn't been dazzled by the joy of going out, she would have known how wrong the whole thing was.

...I should think of a way to send back a message to Aris...

Especially after...after Lord Chiron said that to me...

The horse her mother had found suddenly stopped somewhere, and Cenelie finally nodded her head and looked around.

She has only been to Aper City on the border of the volcano once, still in the dead of night, furtively—although it is furtive now, but the sun shines on everything clearly, there are no piles of stone steps on the road here, and the distance between houses is also very small. It is very big, not only the partitions, but also the house itself. Although compared with father's Vulcan Cave, it looks like a toy at all, but in terms of human proportions, it is already considered magnificent.

There were a few resting horses beside her, blocking her view, but the sound could still be heard, and the endless yelling made her very excited, and she wanted to go out immediately to find out.

After her mother took her home, the first thing she had to do was to pester Tildy and Lawen, asking them to take her to a place farther away to play, so that she would not leave home until the first year passed, It is too long, there are still many decades!

……run?

This thought flashed through her mind, but she didn't dare to act rashly.It is said that the human beings in the world today, whoever sees a monster, will kill it.

Soon, the smell of mother reappeared, and Cenelie, who had lost her chance, hid in the depths of the sack again.She heard several human voices, which seemed to be an invitation to her mother.

The mother's phantom was already on the verge of fury, but Cenelie was not sure if those few humans had provoked it, all she knew was that she left on the horse without paying much attention to them.But it's good if mother didn't vent her anger on humans, Tildi told herself that their monsters can't kill humans openly, and it's better to hide away if someone is entangled.

But she didn't understand why Tilde repeated the word 'clearly' seven times and said it very slowly.

During the gallop, Cenelie heard a lot of crisp and short sounds. At that time, she didn't know that this was called a whistle, and she didn't know that it was made towards the red-haired woman on horseback. She just thought it sounded good.

After the human voice gradually disappeared, she felt that she could come out, and it seemed that her mother's affairs had been dealt with.Now in her little mind, the top priority is to get back to the volcano as soon as possible.

"...Master Mother?"

The little Charmander stuck out its head and looked at the fire demon who suddenly reined in his horse, "Where should we go next?"

Dilmahas got off her horse and looked at her too.

"No, Cenelie, not going anywhere."

"Then... can we go home?"

"I can take you home, and bring this piece of paper with me." Dilmax smiled distortedly as she lifted the petals, which made Charmander a little scared. "As for what your father wants to say, I don't know what to say." knew."

"Um...uh..."

Cenelie stared at the petals, there were actually only four words on them, meaning 'the other blood does exist'.

"Is... is... is it what you talked with... Lord Chiron just now? Is it related to... and father?"

"That's not something you should be thinking about. That's it, we've settled our business, son, and I'll take you home."

The fire demon raised his hand, his slender fingers seemed to caress the child, but the expression on his face seemed to eat people.

She finally understood what the unconcealable disappointment on World Destroyer's face was when the newborn came out of its shell. She once thought it was because he hadn't given birth to a king, and he was in a bad mood, but now that she thinks about it Not at all.It stands to reason that the final stage of the dragon egg's maturity can already know the gender of the child. He doesn't have to wait until the child comes out to put on that face... It is this child's phantom that is completely consistent with his World Destroyer, and there is no trace of other monsters at all. , Even my own "biological mother" has been deceived.

...if I hadn't noticed something in my belly...you'd have really played me, Clegane.

Look, how good it is now... You thought this child wasn't the evil seed of you and others, but she was.I really want to see that face of yours when I go back and describe it all to you...

"Come here, boy?"

Cenelie, who was originally not close to her parents, was suddenly frightened and hesitated by the threatening atmosphere in front of her. Although she would not doubt her mother, she trusted Inspector Fire the most. Parents seem to be close to each other, so I don't want to get too close to Dilmahas.

Also, Chiron lowered his body and said to himself: "Run if you can."

... I was born?

These few words that she hadn't dared to think about began to echo repeatedly in Cenelie's mind. In fact, she vaguely felt that she knew what her mother wanted to do.

...I gave birth to children of other female beasts? ...no one can insult me ​​like that...

Cenelie did run away when the withered fire ignited in all directions, but her running speed was simply not as fast as the withered fire spread, and she hadn't been baptized by the dark water, and the unstable demon spirit couldn't bring her any protection at all. , the skin burst open all of a sudden, although she desperately wanted to fly into the air, the turbid air couldn't support her who had just learned to fly a few months ago, and when she suddenly fell to the ground, the flames immediately engulfed her.

For Huomo, the newborn child is simply flesh waiting to be cut. She doesn't intend to leave any trouble behind. She only has the anger of being humiliated and deceived in her heart. If Clegane still wants to pursue the truth after the truth is revealed, then let him come Explain it in front of your father and elder brother, and in front of the contract signed by the family!

——I don't care who the other party is now!It doesn't matter if Chiron doesn't want to say it, anyway, with his letter in hand, the evidence is sufficient.
