Chapter 66: Resistance
It is a memory I still vividly dream about
The day when we were all playing outside and suddenly the bell rang
The king and the maids grabbed our hands and pulled us
"Never go outside"
After being told that, we entered a room in a high place in the royal castle.
There was nothing we could do, so we were chatting and eating sweets when suddenly the glass of the window shattered
Men came in looking at me and Sedona with creepy eyes.
"Which one of these two is it?"
"Ah, they said it was a girl. Let's take them both."
I resisted desperately.
The Marquis' son and the crown prince tried their best to prevent us from being taken away.
"You guys are in the way!"
But they're just kids. They get blown away so easily.
And so Sedona and I were taken away by the creepy guy.
------------
"I-I brought it."
"Y-you're sure these are the right ones?"
A rich-looking man was waiting in a carriage with his soldiers
"Good work"
"W-water"
“Water, please. Y-you promised, right?"
"Here, it's the reward water."
The two cling to the water bottle and drink the contents in one gulp.
"Agah!"
"Gehh!"
"You two are just fools."
As soon as they drink it, the water starts to melt down their throats.
Then the water spills out of the hole, and they die.
"Hii!"
Sedona screams next to me who is at a loss for words
"Now then. Which one is the child of the dragon?"
Even a child can tell.
This person is going to kill the other one
"Master, we don't have time."
"Mhh, I see... it can't be helped, let's take both of them. Load them up."
I don't know what they'll do to us if this continued
If the child of the dragon is the purpose
"Sedona!"
I grabbed Sedona by the ear.
"Run!"
I removed the cuff.
"Sylvie!"
"Get away! Run!"
Sedona's in the air.
This is ok
If Sedona's okay.
"...Drop it"
"Eh?"
Without hesitation, the men fired their bows at Sedona.
"Gyaah!"
Sedona, now a dragon, crashes down with arrows piercing her wings and belly.
"Bring it"
"Hurry up"
The man comes at me.
He kicks me in the stomach.
"Geh!"
“You brat! Even though I'm nice to you, you took advantage of it!"
He stomps my knee.
"Gyii!"
"If you're not a dragon, I don't need you."
He puts his hands around my neck.
And then he strangles me.
"Gah... ah... kaha..."
"But I'm still kind. I will not kill you at once, but let you die slowly."
My consciousness is fading away.
I didn't feel fear.
In fact, I even felt relieved.
I was sure that I was going to live.
Because
Right behind the man
Shiro Onii-chan was standing right behind him.
