Chapter 1312: Stubborn girl, the cries of a child in the woods.

Albion forest...

In the sky, countless birds chirped as they flew across the sky.

The golden rays of sunset made the shadows of the trees lengthen into a sad skewness.

Inside the slightly dark forest, Wu Yan stood silently as if he were sleeping. Wu Yan suddenly stirred into consciousness.

"Hmm..."

Wu Yan looked around.

"Am I finally back?"

He looked at the sunset.

Going back in time was worth it.

He got more than he bargained for.

He didn"t think he would get items that would upgrade his levels.

With the Avalon Dragon Emperor"s scion"s blood, he can instantly raise his levels to 89, the peak of tier 9 power.

Once he reaches the demiG.o.d level, he would be a bonafide powerhouse in Silvaria.

He couldn"t hold back his elation.

"System, you"re awesome..."

He gave the System credit where credit is due. Wu Yan waited for his time to run out.

"Ugu..."

He heard someone crying in the distance.

"Uwu..."

Wu Yan knew it was a girl.

A girl is crying?

"A child from the Orphan"s Rite?"

Wu Yan furrowed his brows. He looked at the source of the crying sound.

With dense shrubs around, Wu Yan continued forward while pus.h.i.+ng away the flora around him. He followed the sound of someone crying. Soon, he saw the girl.

She was a blonde girl around the age of 7.

Her blonde hair l.u.s.tered under the glow of sunlight. She had an expensive dress that suggested she is a n.o.ble. Her status made her stand out from the decrepit forest. She had a dragon doll. She was rubbing tears away from her eyes.

Judging by the stained spots near her feet, she must have been crying for quite a while now.

Wu Yan rubbed his aching temple. He approached the girl.

"Brat, why are you crying here?"

Surprised by the voice of this man, she looked up to reveal a cute mien.

It is easy to see that she would grow up to become a beautiful woman despite her red eyes and swollen eyelids.

"Wh-who are you?"

The girl didn"t expect to see Wu Yan here. She sniffled before trying to act like an adult.

"The Orphan"s Rite doesn"t permit outsiders, Big brother, why are you here?"

"Big brother?"

Wu Yan didn"t realize he had unveiled his disguise magic.

He looked like his original self now.

"We are doing the Orphan"s Rite, if you"re not meant to be here, please leave."

The girl said while not appearing angry.

"I must find the Dragon Mother..."

The girl tried to wander deeper into the forest.

"The sun is about to set. The Orphan"s Rite is about to end. I don"t think you will find the Dragon Mother if she didn"t reach out to you by now."

"No!"

Wu Yan was taken aback by the girl"s defiant att.i.tude. Then, she teared up again.

"Why do you want to become a Dragon breeder so badly?"

"I want my Pal..."

"This..."

Wu Yan urged her to go on.

"Why do you want a Pal?"

"I..."

The girl replied.

"I want to become a mighty dragon templar!"

"A dragonar, huh?"

Wu Yan bitterly laughed.

"You want to become a Dragonar?"

"Yes!"

"But, the Orphan"s Rite is about to end. The Dragon Mother didn"t give me a Star brand. I am a letdown to my father and siblings... I can"t become a dragonar anymore."

The young girl started bawling again.

"Ugh, fine, don"t cry already..."

"Uuu..."

Wu Yan felt a bit bad for the girl.

Wu Yan tried to pacify the girl.

Then, Wu Yan recalled something he had. He took out an orb of light.

The Dragon Mother tried to make him a dragon breeder. He still had that unhatched dragon.

"Jeez, don"t cry."

Wu Yan squatted down.

"You want a Pal, I will give you one."

"Give me one?"

The girl couldn"t believe her ears.

Wu Yan pressed the orb of light against the girl"s chest.

Vrmm

The ball of light seeped into the girl"s body.

The ball of light also tore her clothes apart, revealing her porcelain white skin.

She felt an external power entering her, a brand appeared near her chest.

Something entered her.

"I..."

The girl couldn"t believe it. She mumbled out loud.

"I have a Pal?"

"Nn..."

Wu Yan beamed at her.

"Yeah, he"s yours now, don"t cry now."

"Bu-but..."

She wasn"t sure what transpired but it is obvious that the big brother she just met had given her the Pal she dreamed of.

"Is this okay?"

"Well, that thing won"t do be any good anyway. You look like you need it more than me."

Wu Yan shrugged.

He felt something tugging him.

That is the sign of being drawn back into the present.

"Alright, I am going now. Remember, don"t be a crybaby."

Wu Yan turned around.

"Wait!"

The girl tried to chase after him.

"Big brother! What is your name?!"

"Me?"

Wu Yan smiled.

"Just call me Wu Yan."

"Wu Yan..."

The girl remembered his name. When Wu Yan turned around to leave, she tried to catch up again.

"Wait, Brother Wu Yan!"

The girl grabbed Wu Yan by the hem of his s.h.i.+rt. Wu Yan is now a bit anxious.

He didn"t want someone to see him disappearing into thin air.

"Wh-what"s wrong?"

"Here."

The girl gave her toy to Wu Yan.

"I just got a great gift from big brother, at least keep this doll..."

"Ah..."

Wu Yan hesitated. With the invisible pull tightening, he decided to accept the gift.

"Okay, I will take it."

Wu Yan dashed into a nearby tall shrub.

"Get out of the forest soon, ya hear?"

Wu Yan told her before disappearing into the bush.

The girl caressed her star brand.

"Wu Yan..."
