“Who are you? Where do you come from?”
Rennes stood up from his chair and squatted in front of the young girl.
Last night, Rennes had just lain down to rest when he sensed a violent spatial fluctuation outside Noah City.
Rennes was already very powerful, but it was precisely because of this that he had to pay more attention to all the anomalies that happened around him.
After all, he was not from this world, but he had always existed on this continent.
It would be very normal for there to be something or someone targeting him in this world.
Looking at the young girl, Rennes became a little curious.
He had never seen a real dragon before.
Moreover, when he captured the girl last night, there seemed to be a strange power in her body that was controlling her.
After he expelled this power, the girl fell into a deep sleep.
“My name is Trish. I come from the Land of the Far North of the Arnold Continent. I’m a white dragon of the dragon race.”
Looking at the handsome blond man in front of her, Trish could not help but tell him her background.
For some reason, the moment she opened her eyes and saw him, she felt a strong sense of familiarity from him.
Noticing the dull look in the dragon girl’s eyes, Rennes sighed. Maybe she was retarded?
“The Far North, huh?”
Rennes recalled information about the place in the “World Atlas” that he was reading before.
About two hundred years ago, in order to secure a larger living space for themselves, several powerful Archmages of the dragon race had launched a world-shaking war against many countries on the continent.
After five years of arduous battles, the allied forces finally defeated the dragon race.
They chased the dragons to the northernmost part of the continent, which was a forbidden land for living beings. There were only cold winds and snowstorms there.
Since then, the dragon race had been regarded as an ominous existence. Almost all the countries and races on the continent had them on their blacklist.
The dragon race possessed extraordinary talent and wisdom. However, they were also experts at creating violence and chaos.
The Far North was so far away from the eastern part of the Arnold continent that even with the use of spatial teleportation, without a dragon’s body, one would not be able to endure the journey.
The Noah Kingdom could not be considered a powerful kingdom among the dozen or so kingdoms in the eastern part of the continent.
It was only after their recent victory against the Raytheon Empire that they had started to become more renowned.
But even so, the news could not have spread to the Far North so quickly, to the point that a dragon girl would travel the distance to pay a visit.
“Tell me, what did you come here for?” Rennes asked after pondering a little.
Hearing Rennes’ question, the girl raised her head, her gazed filled with fatigue.
Suddenly, a glint flashed in the depths of her eyes.
She said softly, “I’m so hungry. Do you have anything to eat?”
Trish asked with a pleading expression. Although the man’s face was indifferent, Trish somehow felt that this man was different from the other evil humans. He would not harm her.
Because of the crimes committed by their ancestors, the dragon race was not treated well by the entire continent.
If a lone dragon fell into the hands of humans, it would definitely be skinned alive.
Therefore, Trish did not have the slightest bit of good impression of humans.
This time, she only came here and revealed her identity voluntarily because she had no other choice.
“You should know what kind of terrible consequences your identity will bring!” Rennes ignored the girl’s pleading gaze and said expressionlessly.
The next second, he completely changed the topic and said, “I can, however, give you food, but you must answer my questions first!”
“What is your purpose for coming here?” Rennes asked coldly.
“Because of the Black Storm!”
“The Black Storm?”
Rennes frowned. He was puzzled. He had never come across a term like that in any book.
However, the black power that was in Trish’s body last night that had tried to control her must have originated from the Black Storm she was talking about.
Rennes looked at Trish’s clear eyes and nodded.
“The Black Storm suddenly appeared in the Far North and destroyed our home. It is extremely powerful, more powerful than what the Archmages could deal with. Through the spatial magic array constructed by the elders in the clan, I escaped together with some of my companions. I just happened to be teleported here!” Trish seemed to be recalling some very unpleasant memories. Her little face scrunched up.
“After I came here, I heard about your feats, so I trekked all the way to the Noah Kingdom to find you!”
“You came here to find me?” Rennes raised his eyebrows. He seemed to have guessed something.
“Yes, I heard that you come from the Abyss, and there are some connections between the Abyss and the Black Storm. That’s why I came to ask for your help, hoping that one day I can find a solution to the Black Storm and take back our territory!” Trish’s eyes had a strong glint of hope.
“What exactly is the Black Storm?” Rennes did not give a straight answer to Trish’s request, but asked another question instead.
“I don’t know. It looks like a black mist. There are countless mouths in the mist. The mist can swallow any elemental attack. Even time and spatial spells can’t hurt it.”
“Facing something like that, we barely had the time to make our escape. Most of my clansmen fought to their death trying to block the Black Storm.”
“But before I teleported away, I heard an angry roar from within the clan. The voice happened to mention the Abyss!” At this point, Trish could not help but shed tears. Because she was in an extremely weakened state, her face had turned visibly pale.
Who knew how much she had suffered and endured along the way.
“Bring me enough meat for fifty people!” Rennes shouted to the outside of the secret room while he analyzed Trish’s words.
A while later, a respectful voice came from outside the door.
“The meat has arrived, Chief Consul!”
“Okay, just leave it at the door!”
Rennes closed his eyes and used the power of space on the huge pile of food that was stacked up like a pyramid.
The next moment, the food outside the door disappeared, to be teleported right in front of the girl.
“Here, eat!” Rennes said.
Trish gave him a grateful look and instantly walked forward to wolf down the food without hesitation.
After she was finally full, Trish regained some of her strength. Some color returned to her face.
“Do you know what the Black Storm is, my lord?” Trish was feeling a little bolder. She now dared to look at Rennes directly.
“No idea!” Rennes shook his head honestly.
From what Trish had described, it sounded like the monster could devour all magic attacks.
Then, even if he was the one facing the monster, he had no good way of dealing with the monster for now.
It seemed that this world was much more complicated than what was described in the books.
“Oh,” Trish was a little disappointed. Her eyes flickered as if she was making some sort of difficult decision.
After a moment, Trish took a deep breath to gather her courage and say, “Can I stay by your side, my lord? Trish is very smart. Trish can learn anything very quickly. Moreover, Trish can wash clothes and cook. As long as you let Trish stay by your side, you can make Trish do anything!”
“You have to be more aware of your identity. You are a dragon. What if I’m a bad person?” Rennes said while trying to hold back his smile.
Dragons were born with a noble temperament.
Having a dragon maid did not seem like such a bad idea!
Rennes could find no reason to refuse the poor girl’s humble request.
