I, a mercenary, became a beautiful silver-haired boy

I slept until the next afternoon.

Yawning, Elena got up from the bed, feeling incredibly sore all over, as if he had been beaten before going to bed.

"Hiss~ What happened?"

Rubbing his sore shoulders, Elena looked around in confusion. Sister Weiwei, who was supposed to be lying in bed with him, had gone somewhere.

But looking at the sun hanging high outside the window, Sister Weiwei really shouldn't sleep in with him at this time. She had already gotten up to do all kinds of housework.

Looking at the dragon egg in his arms, he was still holding it tightly. I don't know how Sister Weiwei reacted when she saw such a big egg when she got up.

"Huh? Why is it cracked?"

The originally smooth and flawless dragon egg surface actually had dense cracks like spider webs, which made Elena subconsciously feel that his heart stopped for a while.

But he soon realized that the eggshell of the dragon egg was not so easy to break. As the offspring of the top creatures, it would not be as fragile as it looked on the surface.

Even if Elena threw the dragon egg on the ground with all his strength, it might not be able to leave a mark. The reason why there was a crack suddenly was probably a sign of hatching.

"Are you so anxious to see this world?"

Elena thought it was fun and lay back on the bed, stretching out his fingers to touch the crack. He had to admit that he was looking forward to the birth of this new life.

After waiting for a long time, the crack did not seem to expand. It seemed that the birth of the white dragon cub would not be seen for a while.

There was one thing that made Elena a little embarrassed, that is, how to take care of this white dragon that was about to be born.

Bringing it with him was the most reassuring way for him, but Elena didn't think that people around him would be calm enough not to care about him when he was walking around with a dragon cub.

When he thought that it might attract the prying eyes of some people with bad intentions, Elena couldn't help but have a headache. He couldn't keep this child at home all the time, right?

Elena was still struggling when he heard the footsteps of others outside the door. This made him subconsciously hide the dragon egg. It was not suitable to let too many people know the existence of the dragon egg in this situation.

"Elena, are you awake?"

Soon, Sister Weiwei's voice came from outside the door, which made Elena feel relieved. He took out the hidden dragon egg and held it in his arms openly.

Sister Weiwei was one of the few people in the world that he could trust unconditionally. In addition, he held the dragon egg in his arms when he fell asleep last night. Even if he didn't want the other party to know, he had already let the other party know the existence of the dragon egg.

Now it is meaningless to hide it. It is wise to be honest with the other party. Maybe he will need to cover up with Sister Weiwei to cover up the existence of the dragon egg in the future.

"Good morning, Sister Weiwei."

Elena waved at the door, because there was a hole in the door of his room a long time ago. After Weiwei greeted him, the two of them had already met through the hole.

Seeing the living Elena, Weiwei's face was obviously smiling, but soon her smile was put away and replaced with a relatively serious expression.

She opened the door and walked in. Looking at Elena lying lazily on the bed with the dragon egg in her arms, she couldn't help but raise her eyebrows.

After hesitating for a while, she still sat sideways on the bed, stretched out her hand and took Elena's palm, and said earnestly in the tone of an elder as always

"Elena, can you tell me what you did? This... where did you get it from?"

Weiwei pointed at the dragon egg in Elena's arms and said, to be honest, she has been selectively ignoring the confusing behavior that Elena has been doing for some time.

But now she obviously has no way to deceive herself. She can't tell what kind of creature such a big egg is, but Elena, who can bring such a thing back, is obviously not simple.

Elena also thought about it that day. Since he decided to carry out various activities as Elena, he has already understood that sooner or later he will be suspected by people around him.

It seems that now is the time. Elena subconsciously touched the dragon egg in her arms, raised her head and looked at Weiwei with a somewhat sad expression.

"Sister Weiwei... No, Weiwei. Do you know that there is a concept called reincarnation?"

"Huh?"

The sudden words made Weiwei unable to react, but she hesitated for a moment and seemed to recall something, and said with a rather complicated expression

"Malice will gradually gather, and the gradually unbalanced world will give birth to monsters formed by the gathering of malice. They are often called demon kings. In order to balance the light and darkness of the world, the will of the gods will give birth to a chosen one. They may bePeople with extraordinary talents, who have a hard life but a kind heart. They may also be people from another world summoned by the church, with ordinary lives but supernatural powers. They are even souls from another world, appearing in the bodies of dying people, doing things they failed to complete. "

This time it was Elena's turn to be a little confused. He was still thinking about how to explain the theory of time travel and reincarnation to the "natives" of this world.

In the end, this world seemed to have been accustomed to such things for a long time, and there were even special stories recording similar things.

"When the old nun coaxed us to sleep, she often told stories about this aspect, including legends about demon kings and heroes. Elena, you should have heard of it, and the picture book is still circulated among children. You won't forget it, right? "

Looking at Elena's surprised expression, Weiwei showed a surprised expression instead. This is not a secret.

It's just that the existence of the Demon King and the Hero has not appeared for thousands of years, so people have forgotten this concept.

When the world was shrouded in malice when monsters were rampant, many people still prayed for the appearance of the Hero, but after so many years, neither the Demon King, the master of malice, nor the Hero, the representative of justice, appeared, and everyone gradually stopped caring.

"So Elena, do you want to explain that you are actually a hero? Everything you do now is for world peace? "

In a very serious situation, Weiwei wanted to laugh out loud. She looked at Irina as if she was looking at those innocent children.

After listening to the stories in the picture books, one or two of the boys in the orphanage would occasionally say that they would definitely become heroes in the future.

It sounded funny, but it also made people sigh at the innocence of children. Such purity is one of the few beauties in this not-so-beautiful world.

This made Irina speechless. He was not a child in the second year of middle school, and he did not think he was a so-called hero.
