Reborn As A Dragon Girl With A System Chapter 527 The Evil God Part 3

Chapter 527: The Evil G.o.d Part 3

"Hey, calm down. I will not eat you. Humans taste nasty anyways." Kana could remember the few times she had tasted human meat, and it was not tasty at all.

The young boy lifted his head with snot and tears running down his face with a frightened look in his eyes. "You won't? Ever since the evil G.o.d showed up, food sources have almost dried up. All the farm animals have died, and the farms have all dried up in most places. So demis and humans have been eating each other..."

Kana did not expect to get such valuable information right off the bat, but there was something wrong with the young boy's story because the city not far from them was full of people walking around selling goods. At least from what she could see. "That doesn't seem right because the city not too far from here seems to be doing fine."

"You can't treat the Holy City of Nomia as a normal place. It is protected by the Angel Nomia, who had sealed the evil G.o.d in ancient times. They have ma.s.sive farms and food stores, and only those who are chosen are allowed to enter. I tried to enter it but was unable to… They said I was not worthy, but I saw a bunch of rich n.o.ble looking people getting in without a problem." The young boy explained.

"Oh? Now that doesn't seem very fair… do they think the rich will be able to help keep them safe when the world ends? If an evil G.o.d is really destroying the lands, then it can be summarized that the world will end, and the only place left standing would be the place protected by the angel, but how long would that stand for?" Ganjo did not understand this thought process. If the protection faded at all or a plague hit, no n.o.ble will do them any good. Having normal people who would be willing to learn new things was the best bet to let into the city.

"I am not sure… I only know what I have heard and seen for myself. Now, most of us eat the leaves off the trees, but they are contaminated. If you are lucky, you will not get sick. But many have eaten them and have died. We will also boil wood and soften it up, but it hurts going down and out..." The young boy made a strange face as he held his b.u.t.t.

Kana could feel for the child. As someone who knew the meaning of going hungry very well, she knew how hard it could be. "Aoi set the kid up with some water. I will be right back."

"On it." Aoi did not waste any time as she checked the land to see if it was impure or not. As she checked and checked, she couldn't find anything wrong with the land at all. "Ganjo, is there anything wrong with the earth here?"

"No, I feel fine. I am not feeling anything off. Maybe it is only something that affects the people of this world?" Ganjo could only think of this since he did not sense anything wrong with the land itself.

"You can make a cup out of anything here. If he gets sick, I can cure him." Aruya would be able to heal him with her holy magic, so it was fine if he got a little sick.

"Alright then, let's do this then." Aoi and Ganjo worked together to create a small table, a cup, a plate, and utensils. She was unsure of what Kana would bring back, so she just made the general necessities. She already knew that she went to get the poor child some food.

"Okay, back!" Kana's hands had a small bag in them as she walked over and placed it on the table. "I know food is scarce right now, so it will be bad if you get caught with this, so I will put a special storage rune on his hand."

Kana figured if she combined her creation magic and her mastery over time and s.p.a.ce, she could easily create a pocket s.p.a.ce that was a rune she could then embed onto the back of the child's hand. Kana first set out some bread and some hot soup she had stored away from the previous night's dinner. "Eat slow. If you eat too fast, you will get sick."

The young boy had tears rolling down his cheeks as he took the bowl of soup and slowly sipped it. The taste of flavors bursting in his mouth made his mouth hurt at first, but it was so delicious. He wanted to down the whole thing but did as Kana said and slowly drank the soup and took small bights of the bread. When he was halfway done, he looked at the bowl and lowered his head as he softly whispered: "I wish my sister could have some of this..."

"How old is your sister?" Kana asked. She knelt down next to the young boy and took out some dried meat, and placed it in front of him.

The young boy took the dried meat and put it in his mouth. He did not chew on it. Instead, he sucked on it, savoring its taste. "My sister is a year younger than me and is seven. I had come out to look for food. We are hiding out in the woods not too far from here… We used to live in a village, but the people in the village began eating the kids whose parents had died. I did not wish for that to happen, so I took my sister and escaped to this forest."

Aoi could see that look in Kana's eye and sighed as she asked: "Are you going to bring them back?"

"Mmm… every child deserves a helping hand. While I know I can not help every child on this planet, if I can help these two, then at least they will be able to live. Plus, Bell had mentioned once about wanting to adopt a child before. She said she wanted to give unfortunate kids a chance to know what it is like to have a loving and caring parent in their lives. Aoi, Aruya, guys, am I being unfair for only helping these two? To be honest, I do not know..." She could try to feed as many children as she could, but one meal today would be gone after it is eaten, and they would be in the same position the next day. Instead of helping, it would seem like torture.

Even she had a limited supply of food. And her s.h.i.+p could never carry every desperate kid on this planet. It broke her heart just knowing this. But she could not turn this child away. He seemed to be doing everything he could for his sister. To be honest with how skinny this young boy was she wondered if he was only feeding his sister and not himself.
