"The ice cream shop will open tomorrow, can I really do it by myself?"
"Ah! I'm really nervous~!"
"But, the boss trusts me so much, he must do well!"
In a dim alley, Yabei Mia's soft murmur echoed, her face full of tension and expectation.
This alley is an alley she must pass through to go home. It is dark at night, the houses on both sides of the alley are so close together that it is difficult for even the moonlight to shine into the alley. It is dark and quiet, somewhat gloomy .
The small leather shoes stepped on the ground, making a slight sound, which was very clear in this alley.
Suddenly, a 'Boom! ' A soft sound, as if something fell to the ground, startled Yabei Mia.
"This is?" Yabemia stopped against the wall and listened carefully for a while, but the noise in the yard disappeared again.
"It must have been a mouse or a night cat stealing food and knocking over the jar." Yabei Mia comforted herself, her expression relaxed a little, but her pace quickened a little, and her fists were clenched unconsciously.
The sound of footsteps was getting faster and faster in the alley, Yabei Mia was still the only one in the alley under the shadow of the moonlight, but she felt that there seemed to be a pair of eyes staring at her in the darkness.
She thought of some stories related to the dark night that the female workers told in their spare time when they were working in the previous restaurant.
Although the city of chaos is an orderly city, the Gray Temple and the City Lord's Mansion manage and control most of the places, but in many places where the light cannot shine, there are still some perverts. It is a very dangerous existence.
There were footsteps behind her, not loud, but very fast, as if something was speeding up and chasing after her, she could even hear heavy panting, like a wild beast.
Yabei Mia felt her heart beating faster, and her footsteps became faster and faster, and she was already trotting. She usually thought it was just an ordinary alley, but now it seemed extraordinarily long, and there was still a long distance from her residence.
Suddenly, there was a muffled sound from behind, the footsteps disappeared, and all sounds disappeared.
The alley was quiet again, only the sound of Yabei Mia's hurried footsteps and some ups and downs of breath remained.
Yabei Mia's footsteps did not slow down because of this, she picked up a thick wooden stick on the side alley, held it in her hand, and suddenly felt a sense of security, feeling that the stick in her hand could be broken All pervert heads.
A beam of moonlight fell on the entrance of the alley not far away, like a torch suddenly lit up in the endless darkness, which made Yabei Mia's eyes light up. As long as you leave this alley, the outside will be spacious and bright up.
Suddenly, a figure appeared at the entrance of the alley, blocking the moonlight.
"ah!"
Yabei Mia screamed, closed her eyes, raised the wooden stick in her hands with both hands, and threw it towards the figure that suddenly appeared.
"Kach~"
The wooden stick with the thickness of the child's arm snapped.
Yabei Mia closed her eyes, still holding half of the wooden stick in her hand, maintaining a high posture.
"are you OK?"
A cold voice sounded, with a bit of puzzlement and concern.
"Huh?" Yabei Mia was taken aback, then opened her eyes all of a sudden.
The person standing in front of him was not the expected naked pervert, nor was it a tall and thick man, but Elizabeth in white.
The silver-white long dress shone brightly under the moonlight. Although it was backlit, that icy and beautiful face was still visible, but she was holding her left hand up in front of her body, and there was still half a wooden stick on the ground.
"ah!"
Yabei Mia threw half of the wooden stick in her hand to the ground at once, looked at Elizabeth at a loss and apologized and said, "I'm sorry... I'm sorry... I didn't know it was you... I thought, I thought..."
Elizabeth looked at Yabei Mia, put down her hand, and took a step forward.
The cold breath rushed towards her face, and Yabei Mia subconsciously took two steps back, directly sticking to the wall behind her, looking at Elizabeth with apology, but also a little scared, and dared not speak out.
Elizabeth frowned, and took another step forward, leaving only less than half a meter between them.
"I... I..." Yabei Mia held her small fists in both hands and lifted them up in front of her chest. She looked at Elizabeth who was approaching, her eyes dodged a little, and the cold breath rushed towards her face. There was a cold temperament on that beautiful face. It made her a little scared, but there was also a wonderful atmosphere that attracted her to get closer.
Just like the breath she felt when she handed the mooncakes to her on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, it was mysterious and magical.
"look at me."
Elizabeth stopped in her tracks and said coldly.
Yabei Mia raised her eyelids and looked at Elizabeth apologetically. She did not expect that it would be her who suddenly appeared in the dark, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it. If I hurt you, then you Just call me back."
"Okay." Elizabeth nodded, then reached out and touched Yabei Mia's fingers.
Yabei Mia withdrew her finger as if she had been electrocuted. The tip of her middle finger felt a little cold, and there was a faint tingling sensation, as if she had been pricked by a small thorn. The sensation was light, barely felt, and no blood came out.
"I took a drop of your blood." Elizabeth withdrew her hand, and in her palm was a small bottle made of condensed ice, with a drop of pale golden blood inside.
"Why do you want my blood?" Yabei Mia looked at Elizabeth with some puzzlement. When she stopped her and Sally last time, she asked for a drop of her blood, but Sally refused in the end. Unexpectedly, this time, it appeared again because of a drop of her blood.
"I have my own use." Elizabeth put away the small bottle without explaining.
"Okay." Yabei Mia was a little disappointed, but looked at Elizabeth, and asked curiously: "You are a frost dragon, you must be able to fly, right? The feeling of flying into the sky must be amazing?"
Elizabeth looked at the expectant expression on Yabei Mia's face, was silent for a while, and asked, "Do you want to try?"
"ah?"
Yabei Mia was stunned for a moment, but before she could react, Elizabeth stepped forward and grabbed her waist. A silver formation appeared on the ground and disappeared at the entrance of the alley in a blink of an eye.
Yabei Mia closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, she appeared in mid-air outside the city of chaos, with her feet hanging in the air, she suddenly fell downwards.
"ah… "
Just halfway through Yabei Mia's scream, a giant frost dragon appeared below her, just fell on the dragon's back, quickly reached out and grabbed a protruding scale, and flew high into the air.
The strong wind howled in the ears, the dragon pierced through the clouds, a brand new starry sky appeared, and the moon and stars became bright and clear.
A whole new world appeared in front of Yabei Mia.
…
And in that dark alley, a shirtless man, with an ice pick nailed to the wall between his brows, didn't even close his eyes...
