Chapter 1
War raged across the world... All races were sticking together, helping the main front maintain defense on the border. All except one. An elf. The only one of her kind... And the only one at all.
In principle, fair enough. She lives in the forest between the states, so apart from a few elderly women, she hasn't met anyone
Midoriya Izumi, who was currently wandering around the forest, jumping from tree to tree. Lately, she had started to encounter more and more wild bandits who were disrupting the order in her humble forest. Hmm. There was a crackling sound from behind the bushes, and she became wary. That human kid again, who doesn't understand danger and always follows it? It shouldn't. They moved to the east of the Todoroki Kingdom, so the boy would have to go through several thousand of kilometers and hundreds of thousands of people. She doesn't think the little man is that persistent. She took a closer look. This is... A little white-haired girl. Izumi jumped from the tree, scaring the girl. The girl fell on her back and stared at her with her wide ruby eyes. The girl had a small horn on the right side of her forehead. Was she a dragon? No, no, even their children were the size of an average human teenager. She was too small to be a child of dragons.
- Girl, what are you doing here? - She tried to soften her features.
Suddenly the child began to cry and grabbed her leg.
- P-please, auntie, don't give me to him! I-I'll do whatever you want! Please, don't send me to him!
- What happened? Is someone chasing you? - She picked up the girl in her arms, stroking her head. The girl shuddered. It was clear that this shouldn't be done.
Footsteps were heard from behind them. "Eri, what did I tell you about pestering strangers?" A sickeningly sweet voice rang out. The girl, Eri, as Midoriya noted, shuddered and shook even more, clasping her chest with her short arms. Izumi hugged Eri tighter, pulling out a black blade from the holster on her belt, preparing to run. With a child in her arms, she won't be able to properly fight off the man behind them. She turned slowly, her grey-green eyes flashing at the man, her white eyebrows furrowed, and she herself was already in a state of combat readiness. In front of her stood a man of about forty, with a plague doctor mask. More like a beak mask, but that's not important now. Judging by his height and distinctive features, by the type of huge scaly tail that was dragging on the ground next to him, the little girl's pursuer was a dragon. This can be worked with. She, like an elf, is built for speed, agility and cunning. Therefore, in the forest landscape, she has no equal. ...
Dragons are extremely clumsy in their small form, but they have no equal in the air. They have extremely hard surface scales and good night vision...
...That's what her notes said. So, already marking the approximate route to the hut, she turned and jumped onto a tree. It would be a little harder for her to navigate in the darkness of the night, but she would be able to confuse Beak Dude's lackeys, who were human and orc. Jumping from tree to tree with amazing speed, she held Eri close to her chest to keep dust and other debris out of her eyes. The man was clearly not happy.
