Chapter 1415 - Winger’s Dilemma (2)
“Are you awake?” A calm and old voice echoes in Winger’s ear, causing his body to go stiff, “If you’re awake then that’s good. I’ve already examined your body and you’re indeed a member of the Terraraptor Crow family. I and your father Skywing are old friends…. To think the old lad would manage to leave behind a seedling.”
Shooting his eyes open now at the mention of his family, the injured guy wanted to get up to get more information but fell back down as he did so. “You… you know my father?”
Dragon Flame calmly nodded: “You shouldn’t be born yet when I was locked up so its normal for you to not know me. According to our connection, you should call me uncle. Does your father mention me often?”
Winger bitterly shook his head over the reminder painful memories: “I don’t remember a lot of things because I’ve been locked up in a dark place for many years. It wasn’t until a couple hundred years ago did I manage to escape and come into the world. Where is this place, did you save me?”
“No, it wasn’t me who saved you, it was Tsing Yi and Little Rice who happened to find you in a forest. They brought you back after noticing your injuries. You’re now inside the palace of the Demon City.”
Demon City’s palace?
Going rigid over this news, Winger’s face hung low as a bittersweet flavor filled his tongue.
I’m inside the city’s palace? Why did it have to be the demon queen’s people who saved me? Now what am I supposed to do? My clan rule requires me to repay and debt I owe to another, but they are the ones Ruo Xi wants to kill. How am I supposed to fit both sides….
“What’s wrong?” The old goat asks with a frown, not understanding why the perplexed and troubled expression of the young man.
Shaking his head after realizing he’s revealed too much: “I’m all right…. Um, do you have an alchemist here? How come my body feel like it’s not hurting anymore?”
“Oh, our queen is a alchemist, and it’s the little princess who gave you a Dan pill.”
Boom!
Instantly, Winger’s mind went blank as it exploded. There are countless voices echoing in his mind right now, each vying to persuade him on a certain course of action.
“The princess? You said there’s a princess in the Demon Realm? But… but the queen is supposed to have given birth to two boys, isn’t that what the rumors say?”
Now this time it was the old goat to make a strange look: “You right on the queen having two sons, but the second birth came as a twin, one girl and one boy.”
A buzzing sound rocked the poor man’s brain after getting the confirmation. Closing his eyes, even his lips were quivering from shock.
Why is this happening?
Why is there a princess?
Do I…. really have to commit to such a vicious act in the end?
But I can’t do it!
I can’t murder an innocent child!
Originally Dragon Flame didn’t have any doubts regarding Winger’s motive or origin, but after this display of ups and downs in behavior, the old goat couldn’t help but add an extra sense of alarm towards this new guy.
It looks like I need to have Half Qing Sing (snake woman) tail this guy in secret. Although me and his father are good friends, but I don’t know too much about him as a person. I can’t risk this because of my own ties.
Though he thought that, the old goat still wanted to believe he’s only overthinking this matter. Otherwise, he might just have to end his old friend’s only son, that would be a regret he himself would be pained in.
