Let such a ferocious-looking kobold be in charge of an orphanage?
Neia suddenly had the illusion that this was not an orphanage but a devil's cave.
After all...it's just a demi-human with a dog's head, Neia has seen it before.
When the Holy Kingdom resisted Jaldabaoth's attack, Neia had the experience of fighting against the Kobolds.
But... the Pestoya in front of her is not just a dog-headed demi-human, because she has a huge scar running through the center of her face, and there are obvious traces of stitching on the scar.
It looked as if her head had been split into two halves with a sharp blade and then forcibly sewn back together. Although she was wearing a headscarf, the transparent gauze headscarf did not have any covering effect.
From Neia's point of view, her current state is not so much that of a kobold demi-human... but rather that of a kobold demi-human undead.
In Neia's understanding...it was impossible to survive such a serious injury.
"I noticed her outside. Is she a friend of your Highness Elizabeth? That's really rude!" Pestoya said apologetically.
"Sister Pestoya! Yili! It's Yili! She's outside now!" Yili said, waving her hands slightly awkwardly.
"Oh...so that's what happened! Don't worry! Your Highness Yili, no matter what, you are still the cute little princess in my heart! Haha." Pestoya narrowed her eyes and laughed.
"Sister Pestoya, it's true that your child's radar is still very accurate! You caught Neia in no time." Yili felt a little embarrassed and brought the topic to Neia.
From the conversation just now, Neia roughly figured out the relationship between Yili and Pestoya.
Maybe Pestoya was just like Yili’s nanny when she was a child, right? And she has always treated Yili as a princess. After all, Neia also heard Yili’s full name just now. It is indeed a princess-like name, but just now Yili was named
What’s the kid’s radar?
"Sister Yili is the princess! Kutilika will be sister Yili's maid when she grows up." The little girl who was following Yili just now ran over and grabbed the corner of Yili's clothes and said.
"Urelica wants it too! Urelica wants it too." Another one ran over and shouted not to be outdone.
It didn't matter. The other children around him were immediately called over, and they all expressed their intention to work under Yili. Yili, who was surrounded by children, looked dumbfounded.
"As expected of Your Highness Yili! You are so welcome! Haha." Seeing this, Pestoya grinned even more happily. However, her smile looked very strange and terrifying to Neia.
"Okay, okay, don't pester our Princess. Her Princess still has important things to do. It's almost time. Let's go in and go to class." Pestoya finally helped Yili get rid of it.
He dropped those children and mentioned a word that made Neia very concerned.
"I made you laugh. It's rare for me to come here once. These children haven't seen me for a long time, so..." Yili said to Neia with some embarrassment.
"No, Sir Yili, I came here to disturb you..." Although I am very concerned about what Pestoya said about class just now, I still have to complete my task first.
"So, Neia, you came to me so quickly. Did something happen to the Holy Knights?" Yili naturally thought of the Holy Knights. After all, she sent someone to follow her right after she left.
"No, no, no, it's not something about the Holy Knights, it's about me... The leader gave me free time to move around. I'm not very familiar with this city, so I followed you... I'm very sorry." Neia thought for a moment.
It didn't seem like a reason, so he bowed his head in embarrassment and apologized to Yi Li.
"Is that so? I thought something had happened. If you just come over to play, I'm always welcome. The kids are about to go to class. Do you want me to accompany you around Elandir?" Yili asked with a smile.
.
"No...don't bother me, Sir Yi Li. Well...although it's a little abrupt, can you let me visit this place?" Neia did not let go of this opportunity to investigate.
"Of course." Yili agreed readily, which made Neia feel at ease a lot, so she adjusted her mentality and followed Yili into the orphanage.
…
Neia was walking on the street in a daze. She was still wondering whether what she just saw was an illusion.
But if it’s a hallucination... then it’s too real, right? How will I report it when I get back?
Just now, when the dog-headed demi-human was behind her, Neia subconsciously moved her hand to the handle of the short sword hidden behind her waist. At that moment, it seemed as if she was locked by something terrifying.
But I didn't find anything afterward, and I always felt that if I had used the sword at that time, I would have regretted it.
After finishing the report, Neia stayed in place very honestly. Neia reported everything she saw and heard on the street and in the orphanage to Captain Remedios.
Except for Pestoya's joking words about calling Her Royal Highness Princess Iri, Neia basically said everything she saw and heard.
Of course... Neia naturally didn't say anything about Neia's own thoughts and what Yi Li had said to her in private. After all, Neia did not have the right or courage to express her own opinions in front of Captain Remedios.
"The orphans will be taken care of by ferocious-looking demi-humans...Gustavo, I always have a bad idea. That rumor is indeed true!" Remedios said.
"Although when I listened to Neia's description, I did agree with you, Captain, but only an idiot would do such an obvious thing? The Sorcerer King is obviously not an idiot, so he arranged for such a demi-human to take care of those wars
Orphans, isn't it easy for people to misunderstand? Moreover, if the rumors are true, then there is no need for the Sorcerer King to arrange education for those children?" Gustavo frowned and said, Neia saw Pace
I thought the same thing when I was in Toya.
After all, before they arrived at the Sorcerous Kingdom, the only channels through which they could obtain information about the Sorcerous Kingdom were rumors from the church and merchants, and one of those rumors was that the Sorcerer King woke up every morning.
Be bathed in the blood of children.
Combined with the information confirmed from Yili's mouth that Pestoya was indeed arranged by the Sorcerer King to take care of the orphans, this rumor is not groundless and is probably true.
However, as Gustavo said, if this rumor is true, then the Sorcerer King does not need to arrange education for his "food".
In addition, Yili also loves the children in the orphanage very much. If the Sorcerer King really did this, Yili would be the first one not to agree!
And from Neia's point of view, the relationship between Yili and Pestoya is very, very good.
