401 Saving the Little Fairy Part Four (1/2)
The Little Fairy sat in the cage in the dark. She had heard the full details of the matter from Sherlock.
The rumors said that Raintea was the third party to Arthur and Sylvanas' relationship and that she attempted to break up the Pioneer Alliance.
The Little Fairy was scoffing.
Though Raintea looked ugly, she had a good heart. Why would such a kind-hearted Goblin break up the relationship of two Orcs?
The Little Fairy couldn't believe that such a rumor would be believed!
How could a Goblin possibly break up an Orc couple?
The Little Fairy couldn't figure it out. She lay in the metal cage, ruminating over Raintea's predicament.
”Hey, hey?”
The Little Fairy heard a faint voice. A fat Black Dragon had his claws on the metal grille of the cage as he spoke to her.
”Ka cha…”
The Little Fairy woke up in shock and scurried over to the opposite corner. She looked warily at the Black Dragon and asked, ”What are you doing?”
”Do you want to get out? Lord Sherlock's sleeping,” Eggface said to the Little Fairy.
”What are you talking about?”
The Little Fairy couldn't believe it. She looked at the Black Dragon, then at Sherlock, who was sleeping on an improvised bed made with two chairs.
The computer screen in front of Sherlock was still on. He seemed to have fallen asleep while working.
”I'm releasing you. Frankly speaking, I'm with Raintea…” Eggface said and paused.
”What about Raintea?” the Little Fairy asked impatiently when Eggface stopped talking.
”Raintea and I… we…”
Eggface repeated himself many times and lowered his head. He spread out his claws as he said, ”Raintea is my benefactor. I was captured by the evil Lord Sherlock. He forced me to do many things against my will.”
Eggface looked at his palm and said, ”Raintea saved me. She gave me things to eat and drink and helped me cut my fingernails. When the evil Sherlock tortured me, she stood out bravely and fought with him…”
”Fought with him? Impossible, Raintea would never do such things! Raintea doesn't know how to fight,” the Little Fairy shouted with certainty.
”No, I'm telling the truth. You haven't seen her bravery!”
The Little Fairy muttered to herself, ”Are you sure? Why haven't I heard Raintea mention this or you…”
”Raintea would never tell others of her good deeds! She's a kind Goblin. Why do you think that I'd work for a superior Devil? Because of the tasty bloody chrysanthemum tea? Because of computer gamers? Because he intimidated and tortured me!”
The Little Fairy believed his words. If not, why would a small Black Dragon do tiring and menial work for a Devil?
While the Little Fairy was imprisoned here, she saw the pitiful small Black Dragon being forced to sit in front of the computer for a long time.
She didn't know what kind of Magic Device the computer was or how it operated, but the Little Fairy had seen Eggface appearing tired, sad, and shocked when facing the screen many times.
”Let me out! I'll find other Dragons. The Huge Dragons won't let a small Black Dragon be tortured and humiliated by a superior Devil. They'll rescue you!” the Little Fairy shouted to Eggface.
”Hmm, that's what I thought. You're Raintea's friend, so I trust you. I'm letting you go. Leave silently. Don't make any noise,” Eggface said as he took out a key and opened the metal cage.
The Little Fairy walked out of the metal cage slowly. She inhaled the fresh air and felt freedom.
”Thank you! I'll save you!”
”Yes, if you're free, rescue Raintea. I'll give you a map. She's in the building with the signboard that says 'Changan City'.”
Eggface passed her a hand-drawn map with a large circle on it.
