As far back as the year she was born, the story still had rainbow streams and laughter.

"I knew nothing in my childhood... In my understanding, my parents were both Fire Dragons. My father was an official in the Dragon God Temple who was responsible for assisting in sacrificial tasks, and my mother was an ordinary Fire Dragon civilian. Our family lived a very comfortable life. They taught me magic, took me to fly around in the Fire Dragon Flame Domain, and said that when I grew up, they would take me to the outside world. I was really happy at that time... I didn't have to think about anything, and I didn't have to worry about anything."

This is due to the overall strength of the Fire Dragon Clan as a high-level race.

There are no enemies around who dare to covet their territory, and they even have to pay them money in exchange for protection. Naturally, they live a rich life without having to worry about war or other problems, and living and working in peace and contentment becomes inevitable.

Timani's ears seemed to echo with the joyful laughter she heard at that time, the chattering among family members, which was a must-do before sunset every day when her father came home from the Dragon God Temple.

Timani still remembers the dandelions in front of her little house. Every spring, she would take her parents to watch them being blown away by the wind. She would smile, flap her wings and fly away with the dandelion fluff. She would return home before sunset and happily tell her parents about the mountains, rivers, lakes and seas she had seen.

Until now I think back on these things.

There was still a faint smile on Timani's face.

"My parents have always been very good to me. They respected my ideas, but there was one thing I didn't understand at the time. They asked me to grow my hair very long since I was a child. They also told me not to show my ears. They also used camouflage magic to cover up the original appearance of my ears. When I was a child, I didn't understand it, but as I grew older, I slowly observed... the ears of my tribe members are different from mine."

"I asked my parents why, and they smiled and told me that my magic talent is exceptional. Of course, exceptional people are different from others. My ears are different, so I have to hide them. Otherwise, if others see them, especially children my age, they will definitely be jealous. So I have to be careful."

This white lie planted a subconscious thought in Timani's heart.

I can’t say it…I can’t say it…I can’t let other little dragons see my ears.

Hee...because my parents said so and they would never lie to me, so that must be the case.

The fact is indeed as her parents said, Timani's magical talent is outstanding even in the high-level races with many strong people. Even the elders of the family often say that she has a future and may become an important figure in the Fire Dragon Clan in the future.

Being the center of attention and highly anticipated by everyone, this is probably the most appropriate way to describe Timani during that period.

But...

There is no impenetrable wall in this world.

As she gets older, the magic that Timani uses becomes increasingly powerful.

However, his ability to control magic has remained at the level of his childhood.

This phenomenon attracted the attention of Timani's neighbors.

The head of the neighbor's family was also a priest of the Dragon God Temple and was in competition with Timani's father for the position.

He had long been looking for an opportunity to find dirt on his opponent so that he could strike him hard when he was about to be promoted. Even if he couldn't destroy him forever, he had to make him leave the only promotion position vacant so that he would have a chance.

So, a few days before the promotion of the high priest, who had basically been decided, the neighbor began to follow Timani's father, looking for useful information.

As a result, there was no point in following for a few days.

Timani's father goes to work at sunrise and returns home at sunset every day. His life is so regular that it is outrageous.

At this point, the neighbors felt that there was no chance.

Just when he was about to give up tracking...

——Late at night on the last night, he really discovered the secret.

Timani's father went out late at night, acting stealthily, and was discovered by a neighbor. Seeing this, he quietly followed him, spread his wings and followed him across the mountains until dawn, when they arrived at the border of the Fire Dragon Flame Domain.

There, he discovered a shocking scene.

Out of the misty fog, an elven girl actually walked out.

蒂曼

Ni's father actually came to this remote place to have a secret meeting with a long-eared elf girl!

This is big news...

Although the two men didn't say much, and the elf girl, whose face couldn't be seen clearly because they were too far away, turned and left, but in the morning mist, the neighbor had already discovered a sure-fire way to defeat the opponent.

This guy looks honest...but who would have thought that he would cheat and have a secret meeting with the elves without anyone knowing?

Considering that Timani's magic control level has always been poor, the neighbor had a rather bold guess.

He didn't have much evidence, but even if it wasn't true, it wouldn't be a big loss to him.

So, the neighbors reported to the Fire Dragon Elders Council, suspecting that Timani's father had an affair with the elves, and that Timani was a mixed-race of Fire Dragons and elves.

At first the Council of Elders did not believe it, but according to the procedure, the neighbor was a member of the sacrificial temple after all, and his report should be taken seriously. At the very least, the Timani family should be summoned to the Dragon God Temple for a face-to-face confrontation.

Without alerting the enemy, the Elders Council summoned Timani alone while Timani's parents were not at home.

The verification method is very simple.

The neighbors said that she was a half-elf, so all we had to do was to part her hair and see if her ears had any elven characteristics.

Timani didn't know the seriousness of the matter. She never knew how much her ears meant to her.

Therefore, she just thought that this was just a magic test that was no different from any other.

The elders of the Presbyterian Church are all her teachers, and the priests around her are all friendly neighbors. They will not harm her because she feels that this world is so beautiful.

However, a thunderclap shattered the beautiful vision that Timani had of the world in her childhood.

Pretending to perform magic was meaningless in front of the Council of Elders.

The moment Timani's pointed ears appeared, all the kind smiles and expectations vanished.

There was a chorus of shock, gasps, anger and criticism.

Timani was arrested.

Overnight, she was thrown from her warm home into a cold cell.

And she was told that she would be executed and wiped out the next morning.

Everything happened too suddenly.

She didn't even have time to say goodbye to her parents.

In the magic-suppressing cell, she learned that long ears were a symbol of being half-blood, not a sign of high magical talent.

Furthermore, it meant that perhaps her mother was not her real mother, and that she was the product of her father's sinful indulgence.

The rules of the Fire Dragon Clan prohibit any impurity in their bloodline. The pure blood passed down from generation to generation cannot be mixed and reproduced by foreign races. Anyone with non-Fire Dragon blood in their body must be executed to ensure that the dirty blood will not continue to be inherited.

On this day, the color of Timani's world changed.

People's laughter disappeared, and everyone looked at her with hatred and disdain. She could no longer find the dandelions in front of the house. Instead, there were cold shackles and dark iron bars.

But...why.

I didn't do anything...why should I die tomorrow morning?

The girl who once looked down on the world and laughed out loud, never figured out the reason until she stepped onto the execution platform in the hazy early morning.

But the "dirty blood" that had not yet dried up and had only recently remained on the execution platform reminded her that the world was not all flowers.

Bright red, besides the flowers, there is also blood.

"But I didn't die..."

Timani spoke in a low voice, and every word struck the sharp blade of the execution under the dark cloud of that year.

Before the blade falls.

Two giant dragons flapped their wings and attacked, knocking over the platform, grabbing Timani and flying straight to the other side of the sky.

Speaking of this, Xia's voice was filled with sympathy but also sadness.

"The ones who came to save you were your parents, right..."

"Yeah..." Timani leaned back against the back of the chair and sighed, "That was the first time that my father came to see me outside of work hours. It was also the first time that my mother traveled so far away from home."

We agreed that when you grow up, we will go out for a walk.

Unexpectedly, it was realized in this way.

It crossed the mountains, flew over the oceans, passed the border of the Fire Dragon's Flame Territory, and hit the dome of the world.

The parents fulfilled their promise and at the end of their lives, they took Timani to see all the beautiful sights in the world.

But during this whole process...there were traces of the Fire Dragon people chasing us.

“Parents are exhausted

...landed on a snowy mountain, and the pursuers of the Fire Dragon Clan surrounded and killed them. "

"how about you."

"Before they died... they used all their strength to release their breath, which opened up a path between the snowy mountains. They told me to keep running in this direction... and keep running. Ignore everything and just keep running."

If you keep running, maybe you can survive temporarily.

However, the efficiency of the Fire Dragon Clan's pursuit is not low. With Timani's ability, she will probably be caught up and killed within a few hours.

Mentioned here.

Timani no longer knew what to say to describe her helpless mood.

"Haa... I don't understand why I am still alive. I am the only one alive... When I was discovered by the pursuers, the clan leader appeared."

The patriarch known as the "Dragon God" is the strongest of the Fire Dragon Clan.

He silently looked at the two giant dragon corpses buried in the wind and snow in the distance.

I actually shed tears.

His voice was deep and powerful enough to shake heaven and earth.

[This is enough. My people are selfless and fearless. They protect our daughter well. They have traveled thousands of miles to bury their lives here. Well, spare her life, but leave her immediately. For eternity, you are not allowed to return to your tribe!]

The transcendent Dragon God, along with his tribesmen, flew over the snow-capped mountains again and left.

Timani was left alone, wandering without a trace.

Timani returns to the place where her parents died.

But they could no longer be found.

The noise of the fire dragons' pursuit triggered an avalanche, burying their bodies forever under the ice.

It’s like a dining table that the family can never return to.

There are no more dandelions to count.

At the table, Timani burst into tears when she spoke of this, as if she was on top of that layer of ice, shouting helplessly, with her helpless face reflected, but she had to continue to carry the burden of "surviving" and embark on an endless journey of being lost in a foreign country forever.

Xia's eyes turned red as she gently patted Xuefei's back.

because...

Even Xuefei, who was usually nonsensical and always loved to joke, couldn't help but turned her head and shed a tear.

Because Timani said it at the beginning.

She no longer has a home.

Even if I have a home.

There was no one waiting for her at home.

57. Suspicion

Timani She fell asleep.

Maybe she was tired of crying, or maybe she hadn't slept on a soft bed for a long time and missed it.

In short, she only touched the quilt for a moment and then fell into a not-so-sounding sleep.

Even in sleep, he was tossing and turning, curled up in a ball hugging the corner of the quilt, looking very insecure.

At first, Timani insisted on leaving. It was one thing for her to tell Xue Feixia about her experiences, but she did not say these things to gain sympathy. Living under someone else's roof was not in line with her style.

However, when Xia asked her where she could live if she left at this late hour...

Timani’s answer was also heartbreaking.

[Isn't there a forest outside your house? I see that the trees there are quite tall. I will find a sturdy tree. As long as the branches are not broken, I can sleep soundly. There are not so many bugs on the tree, which is much better than sleeping on the ground.]

Don't talk about you.

Xuefei had no objection if she wanted to sleep in the open, but if she wanted to sleep in the open right under her nose, then forget it.

No matter how devilish Xuefei is, she would not sleep on a big soft bed by herself. She saw a dragon girl lying on the branch outside the window.

But this fire lizard is so stubborn that Xuefei has no choice but to use her ultimate killer move.

[If you stay here for one night, I will tell you tomorrow morning who the Xila who defeated you is. ]
