Chapter 319 I want to go home
"I want to go home."
However, Lilith didn't know what he was thinking, and was not moved at all. Fortunately, the equipment she had for going out was still in the ring, so she took out her clothes and shoes, and started to change her clothes without paying attention to the black dragon beside her.
She has seen through it all. There is no need to treat this thing as a human being!
"Wait, wait!" Zephirion got anxious when he saw Lilith put on her boots and was about to leave. "Why are you so stubborn?"
"Don't act like you're my elder!" Lilith turned around and glared at Zephirion. He looked similar to her, but his brains were not as good as hers. Why was he pretending to be so great?
Zephirion was choked up by this. No wonder everyone said it was hard to be a stepfather. They were not lying to him.
Lilith ignored him and began to try to determine the direction, to see if she could find a road that could lead her to a town or village.
There was a flash of dissatisfaction in Zephirion's eyes, but he still suppressed his temper and followed with his long legs.
"I told you, that's not your home!" Zephirion didn't understand why this half-blood's brain was so useless. "I dug up her grave, she was just an ordinary woman—"
Lilith turned around suddenly, "You dug up my mother's grave?!"
"That was a human! An ordinary human!" Zephirion emphasized.
"Did you bury it back?" Lilith stared into his eyes.
“Do we have to bury it back?” Zephirian stuttered. He went to settle accounts with the viscount after he finished digging it. He seemed to have forgotten to bury it back…
Lilith became even angrier. Although she was curious about the so-called dragon blood in her body, she never felt that the deceased lady had nothing to do with her anymore. She was raised by the Shelley family and enjoyed the wealthy life brought to her by the Shelley Brewery. How could she not be the daughter of the Shelley family?
But this stupid dragon dug up Mrs. Shelley’s grave!
Lilith turned her head and walked faster.
"Hey, hey, I get it!" Zephirian understood again, "You are reluctant to leave that poor place, because you are reluctant to give up your status as a noble lady, right? If you follow me, you can still be a noble. I have money!"
The girl in front of him ignored him, but he continued to talk happily, "I have enough money to buy a kingdom! Forget about being a noble lady! You can even be a princess! Whether you like rabbits or cats, you can choose any of those orc tribes!"
Lilith didn't respond.
"...We dragons are slow to give birth to offspring. You could be an only child for many years, maybe even until you die! It's not like now. You have a younger sister, right? Tsk tsk, she was born to your stepmother."
Lilith sneered and threw a bunch of thorns backwards, trying to tie Zephirion to the ground.
"Oh, why do you like playing with these sticky things, like an elf." Zephirion snorted and blew a small fire, burning the thorns, shook his hands and followed again.
The two of them walked one after the other, one with his head down while the other just kept talking. When the sun was halfway through the day, Lilith finally saw the fields. She breathed a sigh of relief and walked along the ridges towards the town in the distance.
"Goo-"
After walking for most of the day, Lilith's stomach began to growl. She had no appetite these days and now after hiking for such a long time, she actually felt hungry.
A fragrance wafted from the corner of the street. Lilith followed the scent and saw a street stall.
"Oh, you are a foreign customer. Would you like to try our special food?" The stall owner immediately greeted the customer when he saw that there was business.
"What is this?" Lilith handed over a silver coin.
"This is a pancake mixed with cornmeal. The fillings include meat, onions, and black pepper. We call it quicheta, and it's delicious!" The enthusiastic stall owner immediately put some on a plate for her and handed it to her.
Lilith picked it up and looked at it. The cornmeal pancake was rolled into the thickness of a finger, very small. It was fried in a frying pan until it was shaped and then put into the oven to bake to remove the excess fat. It tasted crispy and not greasy at all.
"Delicious." Lilith praised repeatedly, making the stall owner smile from ear to ear.
"Please give me some more--" Lilith handed over a few more silver coins.
"How can a few be enough? Eat! Eat more!" Zephirion came over and slammed a few gold coins on the table of the stall. The boss's eyes widened, and Zephirion couldn't help but feel complacent -
The fourth rule for raising cubs: ensure adequate nutrition to meet their developmental needs.
Lilith took a deep breath, closed her eyes and chanted: Don’t be angry with fools. Don’t be angry with fools…
But since there was a fool being taken advantage of, it would be a waste if not used. Lilith bought food to gather information, so now she asked the shopkeeper for help more calmly, "Excuse me, can I hire a carriage to Song... High Garden?"
"Oh, that's terrible. Highgarden is so far away from here..." The stall owner carefully collected the gold coins and directly gave them a stove full of small rolls. Lilith gathered around the stove and ate them one by one.
"It may take several months to go to Highgarden and back, which will delay the spring planting... But young lady, you and..." He looked at the young man next to him, not daring to speculate about their relationship. "You and this gentleman are so generous. If you offer a good price, there should be a driver willing to take you."
"I don't want to!" Zephirian also pinched a small cookie and tasted it. It tasted really good! But - he rushed so far, and asked him to go back?
"Thank you." Lilith thanked him. Seeing the surprised look on the stall owner's face when he saw the two people's different opinions, she pointed at the stupid dragon next to her and said, "I was originally a rich lady, but he abducted me by force."
The stall owner took a few steps back in shock.
“Ahem…” Zephirion choked on the crispy scone and waved his hands awkwardly, “Haha, this kid is joking…”
The stall owner breathed a sigh of relief and took two steps forward, only for the young man in front of him to speak again - "I'm her father."
The stall owner stepped back again - this is a lie! How could he have given birth to such a big daughter! The security team! Where is the security team!
Lilith ate some cookies and filled her stomach. Then, ignoring the panicked sight of Zephirion being grabbed by the enthusiastic crowd and not allowed to leave, she bent down and squeezed out of the crowd to look for a carriage.
But in the end, she gave up the more comfortable carriage and instead spent a lot of money to buy a horse that looked in good condition. Riding a horse was faster than riding a carriage, and she had to get back as soon as possible.
By the time Zephirion had shaken off the security team's pursuit, Lilith had already run a long way in the direction indicated by the townspeople.
"Don't be so willful, Lilith!" Zephirian pulled the reins under the horse's head. The poor horse was frightened by the dragon's breath and was as stiff as a wooden sculpture, not daring to move. "I will prepare a new home for you, why do you have to go back?!"
"Zephilion."
Lilith looked at the black dragon seriously——
"The Void Beast has reappeared, did you know that?"
