As a Sword Saint, I Want to Be a Demon King

Holding the half-repaired little bear that still had cotton exposed, she stood helplessly at the door for a whole night.

At dawn, my mother finally came back.

But...it was a cold corpse.

"Is this Janet's past?"

As a bystander, the silver-haired girl couldn't help but tighten her heart:

Although she had some psychological preparations, she never thought that this witch still had such a miserable memory.

——However, she didn't know that the matter was far from over.

Along with the corpse came the pudgy middle-aged miller.

He took the lord's judgment and announced to the little girl:

"Due to your mother's fault, damage was done to my horse—a horseshoe fell off, so compensation must be made."

"Similarly because of your mother's fault, I lost a bag of high-quality flour. The price is 2 silver coins, and I must also pay compensation."

"Due to your mother's fault, my order was delayed and my mill's reputation was seriously affected. This incident caused me a lot of losses... As the only daughter, you must compensate me... 10 gold coins!"

The girl listened to the number blankly.

She didn't understand the concept of gold coins, and she didn't know how to lose the money.

After saying this, two burly soldiers came out from behind the miller.

"The lord is merciful."

A false smile appeared on the face of the miller:

"He knows that you can't pay such a large sum of money, but he doesn't intend to arrest you and go to jail, so he just confiscated your house as an extra favor."

Then the little girl was kicked out.

She lost her mother, and she lost her home.

She could only watch helplessly as the soldiers removed the things in the house and loaded them into two carriages belonging to the miller and the lord respectively.

——The only one who can stay with her in the end is the little bear doll with cotton exposed.

The little girl wandered the streets for two days.

Because she was so hungry and no one dared to take her in, who offended the miller, she had to pick up food from the garbage dump.

There is very little food to eat, and there is a wild dog competing with her.

In order to survive, the little girl had to pick up a sharp branch and fought fiercely with wild dogs.

Although she became scarred, she won the victory with difficulty.

"Mother……"

Finally, I found something edible from the garbage dump, which was a ball of rotten leftovers.

Holding the ball of blackened rice in her hands, she recalled the delicious bread at home, and her mother's kind face, tears could not be restrained from streaming down.

"—look, what a poor little girl."

While she was sitting by the garbage heap, gulping down the rotten leftovers, the miller reappeared:

"But how lovable... As a kind-hearted gentleman, I think you should save her, my lord."

Appearing with the Miller was a man in a tall hat, in the guise of a nobleman.

The weather was very hot, the man kept wiping his sweat with a handkerchief, stared at her for a while, and then whispered a price.

(Due to the reason of the plot, two chapters will be released in succession, and there will be another chapter later)

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

"Too little."

The miller shook his head and added two more fingers:

"She still owes me 5 gold coins... At least this amount is needed before I can transfer the person to you."

"Don't think I don't know about your deal with the lord."

The noble man sneered and said:

"You usurped her property and obtained a batch of undamaged furniture. The only price you paid was to burn her mother to ashes."

"—Add 1 gold coin at most, it is impossible to add more."

Okay, it's a deal.

The miller, with a sore look on his fat face, shook hands with him.

"—You guys, go and catch her here."

Under his signal, two sturdy village women came out from the side and began to approach the little girl.

"Janet, your house is too simple, and there is nothing of value in it."

The miller said hypocritically to the little girl:

"I also helped dispose of your mother's body. I let her enjoy the purest cremation... In this case, you still owe me at least half of the compensation."

"But your luck is very good. This adult has taken a fancy to you and wants you to be her slave."

He turned his head and gave an order to the two village women:

"—tear off her dirty clothes, and let the lord admire his new slave."

The little girl instinctively wanted to run away.

But the location of the dump was behind two houses next to each other, and she had nowhere to go.

In addition, she didn't have enough food for three consecutive days and fought with wild dogs, so she basically didn't have any energy left.

So after running a few steps, he was quickly caught by two shrews and forced him against the wall.

She cried, struggled, and even bit a shrew on the hand to prevent her from tearing her clothes.

However it didn't work.

The sturdy village woman is not the skinny wild dog, her strength is too small to resist at all.

Just when the other party was about to succeed, a voice suddenly rang in her mind.

"Aren't you reconciled?"

said the voice.

"—are you feeling hopeless?"

"—Are you trying to struggle?"

"—want to shake off this miserable chain?"

The voice seemed to have some kind of magical power, constantly persuading her:

"Then wake up."

"You have [potential];"

"You have [possibility];"

"Wake up... wake up..."

"Use the power hidden in your body to resist this disgusting fate..."

"Wake up... wake up..."

"Use your burning anger to knock down your hated enemies..."

The little girl subconsciously opened her eyes.

At some point, all the people around her stopped still.

It was like funny dolls, maintaining their original movements, unable to fall even the flying hair, just stopped in the air.

She opened her mouth suddenly!

——Then let out an indescribably terrifying scream to the surroundings!

The people who were still were all alive.

The two shrews were the first to bear the brunt, their eyes rolled white and they fell to the ground.

At the same time as they fell down, terrified expressions appeared on their unconscious faces, as if they saw something terrible in the sound just now.

"She, she is a witch!"

The miller, regaining his mobility, cried out in a trembling voice:

"She was casting a spell on us just now—!"

The little girl stopped screaming.

There was a faint red light in her eyes, and her face was full of hatred!

Then he grabbed the sharp branch that he used to repel the wild dogs, and rushed towards the fat miller fiercely!

"what!"

Blood burst out!

Due to her short stature, she could only stab the opponent's leg, but did not cause fatal injuries.

The miller covered his bloody thigh with his hands, and howled like killing a pig!

The noble man next to him turned pale and hid back, calling for his guard soldiers loudly.

The soldiers were far away just now and were not affected by the sound.

After receiving the order, he showed a ferocious smile and surrounded the thin little girl.

——They all have metal armor on their bodies, and they are not afraid of any branches at all.

The little girl retreated step by step, and quickly retreated to the wall.
