Chapter 101: First meeting with Robin

Chapter 101: First meeting with Robin

　　I walked slowly towards Robin, and it was not until I walked next to Robin and blocked the sunlight from the sky that Robin realized that someone was standing next to him.

　　Robin originally thought that it was the same group of children and did not intend to pay any attention to them, until he found that the shadow refracted by the sunlight completely enveloped him, then he realized that this was not a child, but an adult.

　　Robin thought that it was the parents of those children who came to cause trouble for him. When he looked up, he saw a very handsome man, and his smile was very warm. It was the first time that someone smiled at him so gently, so gentle that it warmed his heart.

　　Robin was stunned for a moment before reacting. He slowly closed the book, looked at me and asked, "Excuse me, what can I do for you?"

　　I smiled and said, "Little sister, please teach me. I am a traveler who came to visit O'Hara, the Island of Wisdom. Unfortunately, I am lost now and I don't know what to do. I wonder if you are from the island."

　　Robin listened to what I said and thought: "Why are there so many outsiders these days? First it was Salon, then the adults in suits, and now it's this big brother's turn. What's going on?"

　　Robin thought about it but didn't say it out loud. He replied, "Go east and you will see the town."

　　I pointed to the book in Robin's hand and asked, "Can you lend me this book?"

　　Robin didn't know why I was interested in his book, but he didn't refuse me out of politeness. Besides, this brother was the first person to smile so kindly at him. He slowly handed the book to me with both hands and whispered, "Okay."

　　Just when I was about to take the book, I found that Robin had many tiny scars on her fingers. Then I looked at her frail body and worn dress, and I felt that she was very pitiful. Her father died early, and her mother left her when she was two years old. Later, she ate the flower-flower fruit, and her relatives and the people on the island regarded her as a monster. If she were an ordinary person, she would have given up the right to survive long ago. However, Robin not only did not give up, but also accepted it all with strength and worked hard to study archaeology. It is really hard to imagine what kind of ideas have supported an 8-year-old child to this day.

　　I didn't take the book but held her hands holding the book and rubbed them gently and asked: "Your hands are injured, why are there so many scars, does it hurt?"

　　Robin's sudden action made me not know what to do. I wanted to pull my hand away immediately, but I don't know why this pair of warm hands seemed to have magic and attracted me deeply. Although it was just a small action, it was the best gift for Robin, because since my mother left, I have never felt such a warm feeling. I thought it would never happen again, but now it was broken by this brother I met for the first time, and my heart, which had been silent for many years, was melted again.

　　Robin blushed and lowered his head and whispered, "I hurt myself accidentally. It hurt a lot at first, but now it doesn't hurt at all."

　　I didn't understand what Robin meant. When I looked at these scars, I knew that these were not the injuries a scholar should have. I didn't want to expose Robin as she was escaping. Now all I could do was to take good care of her. I slowly activated my magic power to surround Robin's little hands. After a while, the scars on her hands disappeared little by little.

　　After all the scars disappeared, I patted Robin's delicate little hands, took the book, and said with a smile: "You know what? Girls' hands are very important. You must protect them well in the future and don't let your hands get hurt again."

　　Robin looked at the brand new little hands and asked in surprise: "Brother, can you do magic? That's amazing."

　　I stroked Robin's little head and said with a smile, "This is not magic, this is kung fu. Promise your brother that you will take good care of these little hands in the future, okay?"

　　Robin was touched as he looked at the older brother in front of him, thinking: "Is this caring for me? Well, is this what it feels like to be cared for? It's really good to be cared for."

　　As Robin thought about it, tears began to fall from his eyes. He cried and said, "I understand, big brother. I will never let these little hands get hurt again. I will take good care of them."

　　I gently held the frail Robin in my arms, wiped her tears, and said softly, "Why are you crying? Sweetheart, stop crying. Crying is the behavior of the weak. Don't let anyone see your tears."

　　When Robin heard me say this, he quickly wiped away his tears with his hands and said with a smile: "I only shed tears because I'm happy. I don't cry normally. If my brother doesn't like crybabies, I won't cry anymore in the future."

　　I extended my little finger in front of Robin and said with a smile, "Pink."

　　Robin put her little finger next to me and stopped, blushing and asking weakly, "Can I do it except my brother?"

　　I was stunned for a moment when I heard Robin's words, thinking, "How cute."

　　I looked at Robin who was pleading, and said with a smile: "Okay, brother promises you."

　　Robin laughed happily after getting my promise, and immediately hooked her hand with mine and said with a smile: "Make pinky promise, make pinky promise, forever."

　　In this way, I made a lifelong promise with Robin. Just because of my few simple words, Robin's life was changed. Later generations spread the rumor that Robin, the son of the devil, had flawless hands, and her tears were only shed for the devil.

　　I sat on a big rock holding Robin and opened the book and read it slowly. I felt dizzy as soon as I saw the words because I couldn't understand them at all. This must be the archaeological text. I turned the pages of the book one by one and asked, "Is this the archaeological text?"

　　Robin answered innocently, "Yes, brother, do you understand?"

　　I closed the book and returned it to Robin, saying helplessly, "Brother can't read it at all."

　　Robin looked at my helpless expression and nervously comforted me, "It's okay, brother. It's normal that you can't understand it. Only our O'Hara archaeologists can understand these archaeological texts, so don't mind it, brother."

　　I looked at Robin's nervous expression and said with a smile, "Then little sister, you can understand it, so you are an archaeologist, right? Wow, it's amazing that you can become an archaeologist at such a young age."

　　After hearing what I said, Robin blushed for some reason and whispered to me, "I'm not an archaeologist yet, but I'm going to take the exam tomorrow. If I pass, I will be one."

　　I rested my chin against Robin's head and said gently, "Brother believes that you will succeed. To celebrate your admission to the archaeology program, brother will prepare a gift for you tomorrow, so you should work hard tomorrow."

　　Robin nodded and said seriously: "Well, I will definitely succeed tomorrow, brother, don't worry."

　　Knowing the plot, I knew that Robin would succeed. I looked at the time and it was getting late. Besides, I had to give Robin a gift tomorrow, so I had to say to her, "Little sister, I have something else to do, so let's stop here today. We'll meet here tomorrow. Bye."

　　I gently placed Robin on the stone, then turned and walked towards the town. Robin watched my back getting farther and farther away, and for some reason he felt panic in his heart. He was very afraid that he would not be able to see me tomorrow, because his brother had given him the long-lost warmth, so he wanted to stay with him a little longer, even for one more minute, rather than not seeing me tomorrow.

　　Robin shouted at my back: "Brother, my name is Nicole Robin. What's your name, brother? I'll be waiting for you here tomorrow. See you there."

　　I turned my back to Robin and waved, saying, "I remember your name, Nicole Robin. I'll tell you my name tomorrow. See you there."

　　Robin didn't look away until he could no longer see me. He muttered to himself, "I hope I can see my brother tomorrow. Ah, I almost forgot to see Sarron. I'll just tell him about my brother. Hehe."

　　He quickly picked up the book and trotted away.

　　I went in the direction Robin pointed, and soon I saw the town. I walked along the street, looked at the bustling people, and thought, "What a beautiful city, but it's a pity that it only has three days to live."

　　I saw a clothing store and walked straight in. The proprietress was stunned when she saw me, because it was the first time she saw such a handsome man. I looked at the infatuated proprietress and said loudly, "Hey, I want to make clothes."

　　The lady boss only realized what I said and said shyly, "Welcome. May I ask what kind of clothes you would like to make?"

　　I pointed directly at the leather windbreaker I was wearing and said, "I want the same one as mine."

　　After hearing this, the lady boss asked professionally, "What are your measurements, sir?"

　　I thought about Robin's figure and told the boss lady. After hearing that, the boss lady knew that I was giving it to someone else, so she asked, "When do you want it?"

　　I said directly: "I want it tomorrow. If you can make it for me today, the price is not an issue."

　　After hearing this, the boss lady said happily, "If you rush the work, it will cost 10,000 Baileys. You can get it tonight. I wonder if it's okay."

　　I was too lazy to bargain with her, so I just said, "No problem, use the best materials for me, and make the pattern on the back the best. If it's not good, I will destroy your shop and your people."

　　After saying that, he burst out with a bit of murderous intent, which scared the greedy proprietress.

　　As soon as the lady boss sensed my murderous aura, she knew that I was not an ordinary person, and said fearfully, "I know, I will do my best, please rest assured."

　　Having been assured, I walked out of the clothing store with satisfaction and started wandering around to kill time.

　　Robin went to Sarron, sat on Sarron's huge shoulders, and talked endlessly to Sarron about his meeting with me today, looking very happy.

　　Seeing Robin so happy, Salong asked curiously, "What does that brother look like?"

　　Robin answered happily, "Brother is very handsome, with long, shiny silver hair and a pair of crescent-shaped earrings. He looks like he was carved out of stone. He wears a black suit with a big hole on the back revealing a devil tattooed on it. Although the devil is very ferocious, it gives people a mysterious feeling. What's special is that brother's smile can melt other people's hearts."

　　When Sarron heard the last part about the devil tattoo, he already knew who I was, because there is only one such tattoo in the world, and judging from the appearance of the clothes Robin described, it is 99% certain that this person is the Slayer Demon King, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea. Sarron really couldn't understand why the Demon King came to such a place and became friends with Robin. Could he be sent by the navy? If so, it would be terrible. With the Demon King's style, everyone on this island would definitely be wiped out. Sarron looked at Robin with a happy face and couldn't bear to break her fantasy. Finally, he decided to protect Robin secretly tomorrow and just test the reason why I came here.
