Chapter 263: Chapter 257: Dong Quan’s Misunderstanding
Dong Quan was a child from Aira who lived in Androlina. If you considered his age, he would no longer be a child, but due to the accursed Mother of Demons, his body had been forever trapped at the age when he arrived in this plane, preventing his mind from maturing further.
This didn’t mean he was dumb, of course not; Dong Quan learned things very quickly! However, he just couldn’t exhibit the mature and composed qualities that those adults who came to protect them could when facing problems.
Dong Quan never thought there was anything wrong with this or rather, he enjoyed feeling like a child and was certain that only in this way could one discover all the joys of life.
But he thought it would be a great idea to have a big adventure with his best friend Lilu! What’s worse, they had specifically chosen to go from the rarely visited east side because how could it be an adventure if they went to a place they knew well?
At first, they indeed had a lot of fun; they saw many landscapes they had never seen before, and the two children chased each other across the endless meadows, drifting along streams. They were having so much fun that they didn’t even notice the stream had flowed into the Hoffenstan River. After the two Aira children rushed ashore, they were still unaware that they had entered enemy-controlled territory and continued to wander aimlessly.
Suddenly, a bunch of ugly, stinking monsters appeared, and his best friend Lilu was captured right away!
Although Dong Quan managed to escape in time, having never experienced such a thing, he was thrown into complete panic. He knew he had messed up badly. In the past, other children had also been captured by monsters and had never been seen again. Although the Protectors never said anything, the children could feel the sorrow in the hearts of those around them, and they knew that these missing friends had most likely been killed.
Dong Quan wanted to kill himself out of remorse to atone for his mistake, yet he could never gather the courage. At other times, he wanted to go back and seek rescue from the Protectors, but he didn’t dare face their disappointed and critical eyes.
In just the blink of an eye, all the trolls had been dispatched. Lancelot cleaned the troll blood off his sword blade, then slung the weapon back onto his back. He then looked towards the child who had just been rescued and saw him staring, mouth agape, as if he had not yet grasped the turn of events.
“Are you alright?” Lancelot greeted him while waving his hand in front of the child’s face.
The child finally snapped back to reality. He tried to rise from the ground but immediately stopped, a pained expression crossing his face.
“Don’t move, you’re hurt.” A pleasant voice sounded from behind Dong Quan; it was the ‘angel’ who had just saved him! He felt a gentle hand gently touch his shoulder and suddenly, a surge of powerful life energy flowed into his body, healing him instantly.
A look of surprise appeared on Lancelot’s face. As his injuries healed, the unusual features on the child’s body became more pronounced — most notably the two pairs of dragonfly-like transparent wings on his back and the elf-like slender, long ears. Undoubtedly, this child was indeed an Aira!
After he was completely healed, Dong Quan scrambled up from the ground, turned around eagerly, and said to Elothysia,
“Thank you for saving my life, beautiful angel sister!”
