Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Sylvie ran along the complicated terrain to avoid the pursuing soldiers and ran to the bottom of the ruins. Soon, Sylvie escaped from the cross-boundary layer of the 15th floor to the underground of another ruins.

She had been caught in the underground ruins of the 12th section of Area B for more than a year. During this year, she had been locked in an iron cage and had no idea what was going on outside.

When she woke up, she found herself in a pitch-black underground cave.

Through the conversations of the guards around her, she gained a lot of information and finally understood why she was in this place.

She was just a girl living in the slums, so why was she being treated like this? All of this was because of her flirtatious father, whom she had never met before!

She remembered that she was made to wear a hood at all times when she was younger. At the beginning, her grandmother kept telling her, “Sylvie, you have a terrible burn on your face, so don’t take the hood off! If you show your face, you’ll scare others!”

The first time, Sylvie’s grandmother had applied some makeup on Sylvie’s face while she was sleeping. So the first time she looked in the mirror, she was shocked.

At that time, she wholeheartedly believed that she had a terrible burn, and did not realize that it was merely makeup applied by her grandmother.

As she grew older, finally, there was no way for her grandmother to deceive Sylvie.

One night, when she was showering, she washed her face clean. Then, she went to her grandmother’s room and happily said that her face had recovered. Seeing that she could no longer cover up Sylvie’s beautiful appearance, she could only tell Sylvie the truth.

However, not long after this incident, Sylvie was targeted! The people who targeted her were not for beauty, but to threaten the Dumyakan family!

They either wanted to capture her to obtain a large amount of property from the Dumyakan family, or to use her as leverage for other matters.

The Dumyakan family did not respond. They even solemnly stated that this girl was not from their family. However, in this world, only the Dumyakan family members had silver hair, and no one else!

Soon, the scandal of the Dumyakan family’s patriarch was exposed. Sylvie’s identity was quickly investigated by various forces. After the scandal continued to spread, the Dumyakan clan could no longer endure this kind of thing.

Not only did they not care about saving Sylvie, they had already gone mad and wanted to kill her first!

After this incident, there was a bounty on her head. Sylvie had heard all these from the guards. She had never thought that her fate would be so tragic!

However, this did not make her give up the chance to survive. With this clue of the Dumyakan family, Sylvie wanted to survive even more. The only thing she wanted to do was to ask her heartless father for an explanation and find the cause of her mother’s death.

With this firm belief, she secretly used a stick to steal the keys while the guards were sleeping at night.

Since that day, Sylvie had been on the run for three days. During these three days, she had not consumed a single mouthful of food or water.

Only when she was drilling a hole did she catch a mouse. She killed the mouse with a stone and ate it raw. Although her head was dizzy from hunger and thirst, the belief to survive had been lingering in her mind!

After walking in this dark tunnel for an unknown amount of time, he finally saw a glimmer of light. This glimmer of light was like a silver lining, and she struggled to walk towards that glimmer of light.

However, her hungry body had reached its limit. Looking at the light not far away, she reached out her hand and fell backwards.

“Is there no hope left?” Just as she finished speaking, a wide hand supported her.

“Are you alright!”

Although she could hear the voice, she did not have the strength to speak anymore.

“Wake up! You can’t sleep like this!” Rollin kept calling out to her.

Through his palm, he could clearly feel the little girl’s thin and weak body. She was so hungry that she was only skin and bones.

Looking at the dying little girl in his hand, Rollin could not ignore her. He immediately hugged her in his arms.

He found a spacious place, put a blanket on the ground, and placed her on it. He took out an emergency medicine from his space-folded backpack and fed it to her.

After an hour, Rollin could clearly see that the little girl’s face. The girl was covered in black and gray dust, as well as bloodstains.

“It seems that this first-aid medicine is quite effective. Next time, I must bring more with me!”

Due to her injuries, Rollin could not continue forward. He could not simply bring the little girl out of here either! After going up, he would definitely be questioned by the people who occupied the entrance of the cave.

If he were to be carrying out some materials, these people would not care at all. However, now, he was carrying a person!

Helpless, Rollin stood beside the little girl and paced back and forth.

“What should I do to bring her out?”

“Her breathing is so weak now. If we don’t send her to the doctor, this young girl’s life will definitely be in danger!”

Speaking of her weak body, Rollin recalled something and immediately took out a medium-sized backpack from the space folding backpack.

He tried to put her in, and found that he could fit a little girl into it. After completing this task, he finally covered her head with some green herbs that could only be gathered in the cave.

After doing this, Rollin carried the little girl and walked out of the cave.

He did not want to make intense movements to avoid hurting the girl, so Rollin spent an entire day walking out of the cave. When he returned to the village, the guards guarding the entrance of the cave immediately moved aside when they saw Rollin.

When he reached the entrance of the village, he was stopped by two guards.

“You! Wait!” After saying that, the guard jogged over. Rollin was so scared that he had already placed his hand on his weapon.

After that guard walked over, he took out a communication device from his clothes and swept it at Rollin, transferring the remaining gold coins to him. After doing these things, he turned around and returned to his post.

After walking for a few kilometers, Rollin finally stopped. He was shocked by the actions of the guard at the entrance of the village!

“Phew! Fortunately, it’s only a refund. I thought I was going to check my backpack!” After saying that, he quickened his pace and returned to the city.

Initially, Rollin was prepared to send the little girl to the city’s hospital, but after thinking about it, he went to the slums to look for Branch.

Through Branch, he found a doctor from the slums who would provide medical treatment for this nameless girl..
