Chapter 419: Three Wishes, One Curse

Translator: 549690339

Ann felt the puppy in her arms stiffen after hearing the word ” Blackie.”

“You don’t like it?”

An mistakenly thought that she was dissatisfied with the name she had given him.

After all, it sounded too simple.

“Then, then I’ll get you another one. How about Xiao Hui? Little Brown?

Little…”

Ann looked embarrassed and started to jump out names, but she still vividly reflected the ” uncultured “. She started with ” little something something something ” and added a single word.

After the wolf cub recovered from the complicated emotions of ” Little Black, ” he quickly stopped Ann. No matter from which perspective, the name ” Little Black ” was irreplaceable.

Ann seemed to have the same feeling.

“Yes, yes, I think so too. It’s best to call him Little Black! Hey… * Cough cough * Cough.

Seeing that the puppy seemed to be very satisfied with its name, a smile appeared on Ann’s face again. For some reason, in the short few minutes she had met this stray puppy, she felt inexplicably happy. All the things that had been suppressed in her heart seemed to have temporarily disappeared.

However, although the psychological feelings had disappeared, the physical feelings had not. Instead, it was as if they had to jump out at this time to break the rare warmth and let Ann return to reality.

“Ahem…Cough cough…” Ann’s laughter soon turned into a severe cough.

She quickly put the wolf cub in her arms aside and quickly turned her back to cover her mouth with her hand.

When she realized that the wolf cubs were still running over and looking at her with worried eyes, Ann waved her other hand repeatedly to stop the

from coming closer.

After a long while, Ann’s cough finally eased up and became less violent.

Through the faint light from the ceiling, the wolf cubs could see that on the ground, the bandages on Ann’s hands were stained with a few dark red fluids.

“No… It’s fine, I’m already used to it.”

Seeing the anxious look on the wolf cub’s face, Ann forced a smile. However, it was obvious from its voice that it had become much weaker.

She leaned against the corner of the wall. Then, as if recalling some memories,

Ann muttered to herself in a very soft voice,”

“This is what I should repay and bear…The price…”

Under her simple cuffs, Ann’s bandaged hands clenched tightly.

Fragments of memories flashed through her mind. Ann would never forget that it was Liz who sacrificed herself so that she and Elena could escape from the clutches of that organization. It was also Elena who sacrificed herself so that she could be reborn from the ashes.

Unfortunately, only the legendary phoenix could be reborn from the ashes unscathed. She was not a noble phoenix. How could she be?

Bathing in flames had indeed given her great strength, but it had also caused her to lose more. Whether it was the burn scars that could only be covered with bandages, the internal organs that would burn a few times a day, or…

The friendship, life, and future that she had worked so hard to obtain had all turned into ashes. Not only could she not avenge her friend, but she had also become a scapegoat. She had to bear the infamy and leave her hometown for that fleeting opportunity to go to the Thousand Islands to find the Water God.

However, very quickly.

Perhaps it was because she wasn’t alone in a dark corner when the burn acted up this time. This time, when she was eroded by the painful memories, there was a wolf cub beside her.

Ann suddenly felt something furry nudge her tightly clenched fist.

Her attention was instantly diverted. She looked down and met the concerned gaze of the little wolf cub. The fluffy touch was naturally the little wolf cub’s head.

“Thank you, Xiao Hei.” It was such a simple action, but Ann seemed to be instantly healed.

The burning pain in his chest seemed to have eased a lot.

She opened her clenched fist and patted the wolf cub’s head again to show that she was fine. Then, Ann stood up from the corner and walked a few steps with the wolf cub to her bed on the floor.

Yes, the floor.

The coolies at the bottom floor of the cabin had beds that were too luxurious for them.

After laying a tattered blanket on the cold floor, which looked like it had been picked up from some garbage dump, this was the place where they would rest and sleep during the voyage.

Ann quickly found a rusted kettle in the small area that belonged to her. After opening the lid, she was about to take a sip, but her movements stopped in mid-air. Ann quickly put the kettle down.

After rummaging left and right, she finally found another broken small bowl. After that, Ann carefully poured out more than half of the pathetically little water in the kettle.

“Come, Blackie, it must have been a long time since you drank water. ”

Ann carefully pushed the small bowl of water in front of the wolf cub, afraid that it would spill.

The freshwater that could be seen everywhere on the continent was considered a scarce resource on ships sailing on the sea. It was even more so for the lowly laborers. It was extremely precious.

“What’s wrong? Don’t worry, this isn’t seawater. It’s drinkable. It’s very clean. “Ann saw that the wolf cub didn’t do anything to the water bowl. While explaining, she pushed the water bowl towards the wolf cub..
