In the mines, the passage of time is always so slow.

Day after day, year after year.

Until the young demi-human grew a beard, until the injured black dragon gradually recovered.

"Miss Odosia, what I brought today is the Yunet red pig bought from the market. It tastes absolutely delicious!"

The young demi-human was carrying a fat red wild boar and said cheerfully.

"You send food to the mine so frequently, is there no problem?"

"Don't worry, I came here quietly through the secret passage at night and no one noticed."

Kyle said with a smile.

"Thanks……"

"Thank you for what? I also want to thank you for the mithril blocks you give me every time! Aren't we friends?"

…

My name is Eudocia.

It's a real black dragon.

I thought that as a proud black dragon, friendship and companionship could never become a part of dragon life.

But I found that I seemed to be wrong.

After more than ten years of getting along with each other, Kyle's presence has almost become a part of my long healing years...

Habits are a terrible thing.

Even a being like me has gradually become accustomed to things that I would never come into contact with before.

I no longer intend to kill him.

After I recover, I will say goodbye to him and fly to the sky.

As a friend.

I thought these years would last forever until we were separated.

I thought that was it...

…

"Eudosiya, did you enter the eastern mining area a few days ago?"

"I went to look for mithril. As you know, my injury is about to heal. At this last moment, I need better quality mithril."

"Be careful lately. Someone in the workshop has already suspected the existence of dragons in the mining area."

"I will."

…

"Eudosiya! Run away! The workshop hired Yunet's dragon-slaying mercenaries! They have discovered your traces! They are coming for you!"

"how about you?"

"I'm dragging them. They don't know my relationship with you. I can cover up and buy you time to leave here!"

…

"Evil black dragon! So you are hiding here!"

"For blaspheming the glory of my Lord, my Lord will definitely punish you!"

"Suffer death!"

…

Charlotte saw the memory.

I saw many, many memories.

It was the memory of a black dragon covered in bruises from waking up to unexpected acquaintance with a demi-human, from conflict and vigilance, to getting to know each other well, and finally becoming friends.

The ending of the memory is not a happy one.

The black dragon whose whereabouts were exposed was hunted by the Yunet mercenary group, and the demi-human died because he covered the black dragon's whereabouts.

A fierce battle broke out in the forest, and the angry black dragon finally killed the mercenary who wanted to slay the dragon at the cost of suffering heavy damage again, but the demi-human was no longer around.

Charlotte felt strong emotions, the emotions of a black dragon.

It was not entirely sadness and pain, but more sadness, self-blame and confusion...

The death of the demi-human brought a strong impact to the black dragon, but it was not just the sadness caused by the death of a friend. There seemed to be something deeper in the sadness.

This kind of strong impact seems not unfamiliar.

She seemed to have experienced it once in the distant past.

Black Dragon felt as if he had forgotten something.

Forgot something extremely important.

Until... someone found her.

"It seems that Ms. Eudocia no longer needs our help."

In a messy forest, a figure wearing a black hood laughed hoarsely.

"Who are you?"

The black dragon, covered in blood, looked wary.

"Who I am is not important. What is important is, Ms. Eudocia, do you know who you are and your past? Do you know why you are being hunted by Yunet mercenaries? Do you

…Want to resurrect those existences you hold dear.”

Black Shadow asked.

The black dragon was silent.

Her gaze always fell on the demihuman's body and never left it.

"Who are you? Can you resurrect him? Do you...know my past?"

she asked.

The shadow laughed:

"You can call us the Blood Demon Order."

"Join us and you can learn everything you want to know..."

…

Charlotte finished reading Eudocia's Memories.

It's not a very complicated memory. Apart from the day-to-day healing in the mine, the real changes are only at the end of the memory.

Charlotte also knew the reason why this black dragon joined the Blood Demon Order.

"It turns out that it's to revive friends and find my past..."

Charlotte thought.

Regarding the friend in the memory of the black dragon Eudocia, if Charlotte's guess is correct, he is the brother of the little werewolf Noah.

He disappeared seven years ago. Now after looking at Black Dragon's memories, she realized that he was dead.

Charlotte couldn't comment, she could only sigh in her heart that even the cruel black dragon could have friendship.

However, after reading Black Dragon's memory and substituting Black Dragon's emotions, Charlotte also knew that what really made Black Dragon join the Blood Demon Order without hesitation and be willing to work for the Blood Demon Order was not just to resurrect the demi-human Kyle.

What's more important is to find your own past.

The death of the subhuman Kyle was just an opportunity. With the death of the werewolf Kyle, the impact deep in the soul was the strongest for Eudosia.

When reading the memory, Charlotte could clearly perceive the emotion that Eudocia was bursting with at that time.

It's a kind of anxiety where you know you've forgotten something important, you know you've forgotten something you need to do, but you can't remember it.

This anxiety combined with the sadness of his friend's death made the black dragon extremely irritable, and finally chose to join the Blood Demon Order.

Of course, as far as the result is concerned, it seems that she was deceived by the Blood Demon Order.

Because in the memory read by Charlotte, the Black Dragon Eudocia ultimately failed to get an answer from the Blood Demon Order...

…

Crimson light spreads across the black dragon's body.

The ferocious demonic barbs slowly melted, and the black-red corrupting power gradually dissipated, or to be more precise, that strange power turned into the purest blood power, and was finally absorbed by Charlotte, who possessed Nice.

The power of corruption is the power of the Blood Demon Archduke Abaddon, and the source of power of all blood descendants is the same. For Charlotte, who has mastered the Blood Scripture, absorbing these powers is a bit troublesome, but it is not impossible.

Do it.

What surprised Charlotte was that she seemed to have a good compatibility with the black dragon. Perhaps she instinctively sensed that her power was helping her, but Charlotte didn't feel anything during the process of absorbing the power.
