I, Who am Pampered by the Great Dragon, Shock the Magical World
Chapter 61 Little Girl Surrounded By WerewolvesAfter bidding farewell to the village chief and the others, Sade left the Elf Village and headed east. By looking at the map, he could see from the markings on it. He was now at the border of the outer edge of the Magical Beasts Mountain Range. As long as he continued to travel east, he would pass through the Magical Beast Forest on the outer edge of the Magical Beast Mountain Range.
Over there, he would find a small river and the forest and on the other side, that would be the territory of the Kingdom of Herlock. All Sade needed to do was to continue walking toward the northeast. As long as he stayed on that line, he would never get lost. Sade was quite confident about his sense of direction, at least while he lived in the Great Basin with Prescott, he had never gotten lost. With certainty, Sade proceeded on his path.
About four hours later, after pushing aside a thicket, a clear and turbulent river suddenly appeared in front of Sade's eyes. Sade looked at the river and smiled to himself, he thought that the river would be wider than this. Ever since he had left the Great Basin, Sade was thankful every day for his strong physical strength.
Back then, he had successfully used the Draconian language to nurture the Seeds of Power of the Draconian Language Magic. Apart from the two years he spent learning the Draconian language, Sade had stopped progressing in any other fields of expertise but focused wholeheartedly on improving his physical strength. He knew that he had the blood of the Ancient Dragon and the Heavenly-Blessed being inside of him — the combination between the true ancient races' bloodlines.
In terms of the growth of his physical body, Sade was blessed with an exceptionally strong physique. It was because of this reason that Sade wanted to put more effort into this aspect. He wanted to perfect his strength and physical abilities. However, what Sade did not expect was that, until he was five years old, his height was only five feet tall. Sade wasn't happy with his height then. After all, he planned that he wanted to be about six feet tall at this age. Perhaps, it was just his wishful thinking. Especially now, when he thought of how others called him a short mage, Sade wanted to give them a hard punch!
Fortunately, he has been training his body since two years ago to increase his strength and growth. Even now, if Sade was to continue walking on the mountain path or even walk in the forest for more than ten days, he wouldn't even feel the slightest sense of fatigue. As he walked toward the river, Sade scooped a handful of clear water and washed his fresh and freshened up.
"Wow, this is nice. With natural water from the forest like this, washing my face with this water daily will be extremely comfortable." Sade felt the chill on his face and could not help but sigh. In Sade's previous life, where he lived was heavily industrialized. Nature had been severely damaged. Such a clear river wouldn't have existed in his previous life.
"It's true what they say, the real nature is always the best" Sade sighed with relief. As he was just talking to himself for a bit, a loud cry for help came from the forest across the river.
"Help! Can someone help me? Please help me!" Sade's eyes lit up as he heard this. He could make out all the words the person was saying. It was a common language that was exclusively used by the citizens of the Kingdom of Herlock. It just so happened that Sade had just passed through the range of the Magical Beasts Mountain Range.
Along this path, Sade only saw wild animals and Magical Beasts and he had already gotten bored with similar sightings. At this moment, he needed to meet a local villager so that he could seek more information. Since someone was crying for help, Sade assumed that the person would most likely be facing a ferocious Magical Beast. Suddenly, Sade pushed his legs forward, as he jumped quickly across the small river that was in front of him and ran toward the sound. Because of his immense strength, it didn't take Sade too long to locate where the voice came from.
As he looked over, Sade's eyes widened. Not too far away ahead of him, he saw about thirty to forty gray wolves surrounding a ten-year-old blonde girl, who was holding a wooden basket. It was obvious these wolves were planning on having her as their lunch. At that moment, Sade saw the big alpha wolf that was much bigger than the others slowly advancing toward the little girl. He saw its eyes grow greener and more ferocious, and its mouth was full of ugly teeth grinding one another. Sade imagined it would be able to sink its teeth and end the girl's life in one bite. As it was making another move toward the girl, Sade yelled out.
"Stop now, you beast!
"Wind, lightning, and fire!"
The magic started to stir up in Sade's body at the same time! Sade sprinted there with an incredible speed that was almost unimaginable. In a blink of an eye, Sade, who was originally more than thirty feet away now reached next to the girl and held her tight in his arms. Behind Sade, the gray wolves instantly disintegrated into a sudden bursting fire and immediately turned into a glowing pile of ashes.
"Are you alright?" Sade looked at the blonde girl and smiled, he hoped that he could give her a sense of security and kindness. And as expected, the little girl was relieved that she saw all the wolves had disappeared and Sade was in front of her. The little girl fainted at this point.
"Oh, now she fainted…" Sade saw what happened and he didn't even know what to do.
He then laid her down and built a bonfire on the spot to prevent wild animals from attacking. Later, he went out to hunt a wild boar to make a barbeque. He ate his catch and waited for the girl to wake up because he thought it wasn't a good idea to just leave the girl there. If he were to take her out of the forest, he wouldn't even know where to take her anyway. Sade thought he might as well just wait there for her to wake up so he could ask her for more information.
Sade took out a spellbook from the Interspatial ring and read it while he was eating the roasted boar. He had been neglecting his knowledge of elemental magic over the years, and he felt it was a good idea to brush up his skills and revise his skills. Not long after, the little girl woke up and she was dribbling over the roasted boar and started wolfing down the food. It must've been so long since she had any food. Sade thought that after the stress that she was through with the wolves, it wasn't weird for her to be this hungry.
After she had her fill with food and water, Sade finally got the chance to have a conversation with her. Sade had found out that the little girl's name was Kylie. She had just recently turned ten and was living in the suburbs of the Kingdom of Herlock. Her father was a soldier of the Kingdom and he had died in the earlier years during the battle against the Magical Beasts attacks. The little girl's only remaining family was her mother, who had fallen ill four days before the incident. To make her mother healthy again, Kylie immediately devised a plan to go into the city to seek help from a mage.
The little girl had remembered that mages are omnipotent and powerful big-timers. With this thought, she took all the money from her family savings and headed straight to the city to seek a mage's help. But as an ordinary civilian family, the money that the little girl had on her was nothing to the mages in the city and was completely rejected. Helplessly, Kylie thought of her mother who was gradually losing the battle with illness.
So, Kylie decided that she would head into the Magical Beasts Forest to find valuable elemental materials to be able to afford help from the mages. What later happened was what Sade saw. Sade was thinking of all the potential outcomes of entering the forest alone. Even common wild beasts that roamed throughout the territory of Kingdom of Herlock were more than enough to take Kylie's life, and it was something a ten-year-old girl like Kylie could not survive. After the girl told him the whole story, Sade couldn't help but feel pity for her.
Although Sade didn't see himself as someone noble, it was through fate that he happened to meet Kylie here. Since Sade has magical abilities, he was more than happy to help Kylie's mother. As Sade told Kylie what he was going to do, the girl jumped up ecstatically and cried. She was just a ten-year-old girl and Sade sighed slowly in his heart. To stop her from crying, Sade tried to change the topic.
"So how is the Kingdom of Herlock? Has anything changed?" Sade asked.
"Oh, you haven't heard?" Kylie wiped her tears and looked at Sade with curiosity, and she was puzzled.
"Yes, I have been out there exploring for so long and I have missed out on the current situation." Sade saw that Kylie was finally relieved and her attention diverted, he heaved out a sigh and replied casually.
"It didn't change much. However, a few days ago, I heard from the Elf Village Chief that Princess Philomena is going to marry the son of a Minister." Kylie responded.
"Huh? Philomena is getting married?!"
