“Orro, keep going, hang in there!”
“According to the treasure map, we should reach Dad’s tomb soon!”
In the dark Relic Cave, holding a torch, a seven or eight year old demi human girl encouraged her companion behind her in an energetic voice.
The little girl wore simple casual clothes. Although her face was a bit dirty from the trek, stained with some dust, it did not hinder her cuteness and beauty. Especially her chiseled facial contours made it clear at a glance that she would definitely grow up to be a stunning beauty.
Of course, in addition, the girl’s fiery red hair was also particularly eye-catching. In a sense, it was a symbol of identity.
However, at the moment, the red hair was tied by the girl into a neat single ponytail behind her head, making the nobility and oppressiveness brought by the original red hair thinner, and more spirited!
At the same time, with the help of the torchlight, if one observed carefully, one could vaguely see that on both sides of the Demi human girl’s head, there was a pair of immature dragon horns, just emerging from her red hair, not yet fully developed.
In contrast to the girl’s excitement and vitality, the little boy following behind as the girl’s companion appeared slightly inferior in mental outlook.
“Liya, that’s not called dad’s tomb, it’s called dad’s relic.”
Orro, who had finally climbed over a huge rock blocking the way, sighed as he looked at the dragon-horned girl who was waiting for him, half a head taller than him.
“Hey, what’s the difference?”
“A tomb is used to place dead bodies. When you say that, it sounds like our father is already dead. Don’t do that next time, father will definitely be angry if he hears it.”
Orro explained to the dragon girl in a lecturing manner while patting the dust on his clothes that had gotten on when climbing the rock just now.
Under the torchlight, the boy’s face was soft, his skin fair and delicate. He already had a handsome appearance at a young age, the kind of super positive boy who could receive countless love letters in elementary school and make countless older sisters’ eyes light up when walking on the street.
And unlike his sloppy sister Liya, the little boy was obviously very particular about his image.
Even though he came to explore, he was still wearing traditional clothes from the “Holy Church”. Undergarment, tie, coat, leather boots, church robe… not a single item was missing.
In addition, the cross hanging on the little boy’s chest, faintly emitting a sea-blue glow, made the boy’s temperament even more outstanding.
It could be said that at a young age, he already had the shadow of a future Bishop.
However, at the moment, this little bishop was a bit troubled.
“No way! Daddy won’t be angry. Daddy told me when he was telling me bedtime stories the other day that he crawled out of a coffin.”
“Father was just teasing you.” Orro shook his head helplessly.
“Hmph, I don’t believe it! Daddy would never lie to me. Just wait, when we really get to the tomb, I’ll prove it to you! I’ll open your eyes to Daddy’s coffin!”
After making a face at her brother behind her, Liya took the lead and continued exploring deeper into the cave, referring to the treasure map in her hand.
The cave boulder two or three meters high was easily leaped over by the dragon girl.
This made the little boy behind her twitch the corner of his mouth.
After sighing again, the little boy started to climb arduously on all fours, trying to keep up with his monster like sister with his tiny body.
Hard work pays off.
After about another half an hour, Liya’s excited voice came from ahead.
“We’re here! This is it! Come quickly, Orro! We found Dad’s tomb!”
It seemed that she was too impatient with the panting little boy behind her being too slow. After running over quickly, Liya picked up the little boy and carried him on her shoulder. Then, without waiting for Orro to speak, she leaped into the dark pit of the cave below with her brother.
Bang!
Landing solidly and steadily, Liya put her brother down like unloading a sandbag, and then eagerly began to look around the tomb.
And when Liya’s gaze saw a coffin that was as dark as if it had been burned by fire at the innermost side of the tomb, the dragon girl’s eyes instantly lit up, as if an adventurer had finally found the treasure chest.
“Orro! Orro! See that, that’s it! Daddy’s coffin!” The excited Liya kept tugging at Orro’s church robe beside her with her little dirty hands.
Then the girl ran towards the coffin. The coffin lid, which must have weighed dozens of kilograms, was pushed open with one hand by Liya, who was in a state of excitement.
“Treasure, Dad’s treasure, hehe!”
The girl’s dragon eyes sparkled with little stars, as if she had already imagined the many treasures inside the coffin.
However, when Liya really jumped into the coffin, she found…
“What, what’s going on?”
Liya fumbled in the coffin for a long time, but except for getting herself covered in dust, she had no gain at all.
Inside the coffin…
It was completely empty.
“It shouldn’t be like this. Daddy’s treasure should be here. Why can’t I find it?”
The little girl sat in the coffin dejectedly, her face full of grievance.
“Who told you there was a treasure in the coffin, was it Father too?” At this time, Orro also came to the side of the coffin.
“Daddy didn’t say, but… I specially went to read books, and those books clearly wrote that some powerful people, when buried, would prepare many precious burial objects in their coffins!”
“So I thought, I thought that Daddy is so powerful, there must be many treasures in his coffin, but but…”
After hearing his sister’s explanation and seeing his sister sitting in the coffin with a puzzled and confused expression, Orro couldn’t help but cover his face.
“That’s why I told you, only dead people are called tombs. Father is not dead, let alone buried, so naturally there is nothing in the coffin!”
“But… but if there is no treasure here, then, then what should I do, there’s no time to prepare anything else, wooaaaaaaaaaah…”
The dragon girl, who originally didn’t find any treasure and was now lectured by her brother, finally couldn’t hold back. Large teardrops began to fall down her cute face, which was now full of grievance and sadness.
This time it was Orro’s turn to panic.
But fortunately, he was prepared.
The little boy secretly took out a rusty short sword that he had hidden in his church robe while his sister was still crying, and then put it into the coffin at an extremely fast speed.
After doing all this, Orro pretended to climb into the coffin, pretending to search for a while, and then deliberately made an excited sound while tugging at Liya’s clothes.
“Liya! Wait! There seems to be something in the coffin!”
“Woo… wooah?! Eh!? Re-really, where?”
The girl, who was just sobbing, saw the rusty sword following Orro’s finger. Her originally dim dragon eyes immediately lit up again.
“A sword! It’s a sword! I heard in Daddy’s story that this must be the sword Daddy used when he was young, the Great Emperor Sword that slaughtered countless monsters and saved the world!!”
Accompanied by an excited voice, Liya hugged this rusty sword in her arms like a treasure, looking at it again and again with an excited face.
Seeing his sister stop crying and finally become happy again, Orro breathed a sigh of relief.
As a result, who knew that in the next second, the little boy’s breath was suspended again.
Because…
“But Orro, it’s so strange…”
“Str-strange?”
“Yeah, I should have searched this place, but why didn’t I see this sword just now, and Orro, look, this coffin is so dirty, full of dust and dirt, but why is this sword so clean? There’s not a speck of dust, and even…”
“Orro, feel it, this sword still has some residual warmth, as if it had been held by someone all along?”
The dragon girl’s analysis was well-founded and reasonable, which instantly doubled the pressure on Orro beside her, making him sweat on his forehead.
Why does my sister’s brain… suddenly work well in such strange places?
