War always brings death, and the most undesirable… it still happened.
The heavy rain poured down incessantly.
"What a regret, is this truly the end?" The Wise Dragon, Bellserion, lay on the ground, sighing regretfully as he looked up at the sky.
A worried voice echoed from afar: "Bellserion!"
On the other side,
"Uncle, didn't you say you'd be back soon today?"
Amidst the rain, a young dragon quietly curled up in front of a cave, its eyes filled with anticipation.
It had been waiting for its uncle to return, but as time passed, minute by minute, and night gradually fell, its uncle's figure never appeared.
The silence of the night enveloped the entire mountain range, with only a cold breeze gently caressing the young dragon's scales. Its eyes gradually became anxious and disappointed, but it continued to wait steadfastly.
However, a solitary figure in the distance, accompanied by starlight and rain, walked haltingly towards it.
Her steps were heavy and slow, her face showing unconcealed sorrow. The young dragon looked at the queen, and it seemed to understand something in its heart.
"Impossible, Uncle will definitely come back. Uncle promised me."
"He said he wouldn't leave and not return like Mama and Papa; he definitely wouldn't break his promise!"
"He promised me…"
Its large eyes revealed a deep longing, as if expecting something, subconsciously blocking out Ann and no longer looking at Ann.
It gazed at the dark sky in the distance.
Its body trembled slightly, and it constantly turned its head, trying to find that familiar figure on the distant horizon. However, each search ended in disappointment; it saw nothing but the cold wind.
"Yanemus… I'm so… sorry…" Ann's trembling voice reached its ears.
Yanemus was also startled, feeling the coldness of the falling tears of sorrow. A hint of sadness gradually appeared in its eyes, and its tail gently swayed, then slowly fell motionless, as if expressing its inner unease.
It seemed to understand something.
Was Uncle truly not coming back?
"Wuwuwu~ Uncle…"
Large tears streamed down its eyes, dripping onto the ground, and similarly, into Ann's heart.
Humans, why protect humans?
Mama and Papa were the same, saying they would return, but in the end, they never did.
You are the same…
Yanemus remembered that Mama and Papa had also said before they left that they would quickly deal with the enemies and return soon, and even bring him his favorite food.
But only Uncle returned.
Now, Uncle was gone too…
Thinking of this, Yanemus roared in a low voice, "You're all big liars!!!" and tears flowed uncontrollably.
Uncle… I don't know, I don't know… is this worth it?
Yanemus whispered brokenly and choked up, the extreme sorrow making Ann unable to hold back any longer.
Covering her mouth, she cried out loudly. The sorrow she had suppressed to the extreme now burst forth with Yanemus's tears and whispers.
