My World Traveling System: The Harbinger of Death-Chapter 667 - The Detestable Nuns

-----

Frank let Miriam walk back to the orphanage with Ryujin, who was very clingy with Miriam for some reason, probably due to the mystical connection she suddenly created with him as she battled with him.

The little dragon god had grown fond of her a lot more than Frank could had possibly expected, but he decided to leave him with her so he could protect her, and as some sort of experimentation.

Inside of Miriam's orphanage, nobody had monster pets except the nuns, and the kids were always seemingly abused by them, who were quite the assholes.

So Frank wanted to break the power balance in there and help Miriam and the kids have some more space to breathe from their abusive caretakers.

Miriam held the cute Ryujin over her shoulders, as she walked back to the orphanage.

Many people looked at the girl weirdly, she had a very extravagant-looking monster pet, a dragon-type one at that, those were always often held by royal families, seeing a poor kid like her having one felt weird, as if she had stolen it.

Some thugs even thought that she could be a good target… But Miriam wasn't na?ve like Arthurious. She was able to take care of herself in the streets. How? By merely evading danger.

She moved very fast, walking around the streets, behind the houses, and then moving to another place, she always made any thugs that often followed her around get lost, she had adapted such ways of escaping from them long ago, and had perfected such ways.

She knew the routes where they often didn't come near to, but sometimes they would surprise her by being there, but she would often move back incredibly quickly and get lost from their sight again.

However, this time around something was weird, the thugs stopped following her around and only watched her from afar, perhaps Ryujin's presence, which was enormously strong, intimidated them…

Miriam felt a bit happy for that, this new friend of hers was really someone that was bringing a change to her life, more than she could had ever expected.

As she reached the orphanage and entered through the door, the two nuns greeted her. They were already aware she was working and accumulating money somehow, they had checked her belongings several times trying to find anything of value to steal from her, but could not.

Somehow, she was saving her money somewhere else, and although they were very much assholes, they had somewhat of a "pride" that didn't easily allowed them to ask Miriam upfront to give them all the money, although they had asked her to give them donations to maintain the orphanage, but she refuses saying she hasn't been paid yet, which they don't believe, obviously.

The two ugly women looked at her. Mother Felicia was a long-nosed woman that had the face of a goblin, with messy black hair and sharp eyes, she was the smartest of the duo. Meanwhile, Mother Cecilia was a fat woman with long blonde hair and shiny blue eyes, she always spoke about being from a royal family, or something, but nobody believed her, and she didn't acted up to be part of one either, as she was a gross piggy that swallowed most of the food in the orphanage.

"Miriam! You're late once more! Are you sure you're being well paid for such an arduous work every day, my daughter?" asked Felicia with her sharp eyes, her nose was so big it even made a small shadow below the moonlight over the face of Miriam.

"Sorry for being late, there was a lot of things I did today, especially today, Sir Frank gave to me this dragon monster pet to take care of me. He said he was renting it to me though, but isn't he cute?" asked Miriam, as she showed off Ryujin to the two women.

The nuns were left shocked as they looked at the small and regal dragon, his scales were so beautiful and shiny that they left the two speechless, the creature was indeed a dazzling being.

"Groar!"

Ryujin looked at the two women and immediately felt ominous presences coming out from them, they felt intimidating, as if they were up to no good. However, he didn't attacked them. 𝗳𝐫𝘦e𝘸𝗲𝚋𝓃𝚘v𝘦𝘭.𝑐𝒐m

"W-What is this?! A dragon…" said Felicia.

"H-How did that man gave you that?!" asked Cecilia.

"Hehe, he's cute, right? His name is Ryujin." Said Miriam. 𝙛𝘳𝘦e𝓌e𝗯n𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝚘𝑚

"Let me see him more closer…" said Felicia, approaching her hand to Ryujin.

Miriam walked a few steps back and didn't allowed the nun to touch her monster pet.

"No! He doesn't like other people to touch him." said Miriam angrily.

"Y-You damn bratty girl!" said Felicia.

"You're too young for having monster pets, we'll keep it until you grow older… hehe…" said Cecilia.

"No, he doesn't want to!" said Miriam.

"Shut up! You're just a child, you can't take care of a dragon, he'll end up killing you or something…" said Felicia.

"Yes, this is for the best of you." Said Cecilia.

"I am responsible!" said Miriam.

However, although she struggled, the two women finally reached her and suddenly grabbed Ryujin at the same time.

"GROARR!"

Ryujin angrily bit the hands of both of them in succession, leaving ugly bite marks that quickly began to bleed.

"Gyyyyaaaaah!"

"M-My hand! Ouch! Ouch!"

The two ugly nuns began to cry out of main, although Ryujin wasn't a brute and only left some wound that could be easily washed out and would recover over some time, without breaking bones or cartilage, similar to a warning bite.

"Don't touch my Ryujin or he'll bite you!" said Miriam angrily, as she walked inside the orphanage and ran back to her room.

"Y-You damn brat! I am going to kill that girl!" roared Felicia.

"Wait! Felicia, we can't fight her if that dragon is with her…" said Cecilia.

"T-Then… what do we do?" asked Felicia.

"Hmm… She got that shiny creature there… Maybe we can call some old friends." Said Cecilia.

"Oh? Ahhh… I see… Yes, perhaps we can bring some old friends…" said Felicia.

"That'll teach her a good lesson, and also we can cash out of it if we sell that thing!" said Cecilia.

"Yeah, and if that owner gets angry, he'll direct his anger to her, not us, he doesn't even know us anyways! Gyahahaha!" laughed the witch-like Felicia…
