Reborn As A Dragon Girl With A System-Novel

Chapter 298 - Killing For Money

A familiar stench filled Kana's nose as her eyes slowly parted. Familiar sounds also began to enter her ears. All of these things together caused kana to look around in a panic. The dirty walls of the woman's bathroom filled her eyes. "No, how!? How can this be!? Was everything just a dream!?"

Kana looked down at her skin and bone hands and arms. Tears began to well up in her eyes as she saw the familiar sight she had wanted to forget about for so long. She then reached down and rubbed her sunken in belly, causing her tears to rain down. "Was it truly all a dream!? Creige!? Creige!"

In a panic, Kana pushed open the stall door and ran out of the bathroom into the dead of night. The lights of the city filled her eyes as she looked around, searching, searching for the man she loved. But no matter where she looked, all she saw was the same city from her memories, the same city she had suffered so many years in.

Kana held her body as she left out a breath of steam. "Do I really need to live in such a place once again?" Kana quickly shook her head. "Even if everything was a dream, I now know hiding and trying to stay safe will not always get me what I need. If I fight back against those who wish to harm me, then I can easily get the edge but first…" She held her stomach once more. "I need to eat and get this body back into shape. Which may take a little while."

Kana knew these streets well. She spent so long running around them that she could probably get around blind folded if she wished. The first thing she did was trudge through the snow to a construction site. There she found a thin metal rod that was not too heavy but sharp at the end. "If I wish to survive, others need to suffer in my place. For now, I will find a source of food."

Kana crept through the night until she reached an unsightly place. It was where girls went to sell themselves. Men would pick them up and bring them to love hotels where they would pay to have sex with them. Kana, of course, did not plan to have sex with anyone. Even if everything before was a dream, the one she will love and only love was Creige, and that would never change. Her plan was to find someone who had a fat wallet. With the rod she slipped down into her waistband, she walked over and stood by the side. Many of the girls only took a glance at her. Some of which had gazes full of pity. This was normal since Kana at this time, although she was sixteen, her body looked no older than ten.

Luckily for her, it didn't take long before a chunky man walked up to her and asked: "How much."

"Negotiable." Kana said with a small smile. The man nodded and took her hand as they walked towards one of the hotels not far away. The man did not even care as they passed by people who were giving him displeased looks, but no one stopped him. Even when he walked into the love hotel with Kana, hand in hand, the man behind the counter only sneered before giving him a room key.

As they walked up the stairs, Kana could already hear the sounds of moaning. This was just the kind of place it was. When they entered the room, the man looked Kana over before saying: "Go shower, I will be right back." After saying this, the man left without a word. Kana only sneered as she walked over to one of the wooden chairs and sat down. She had no plans of taking a shower anytime soon. About twenty minutes later, the man came back and frowned when he saw that Kana was just sitting there as dirty as she was before.

"Didn't I say to go wash up!? What are you doing?" The man asked. You could tell from the tone of his voice he was starting to become impatient.

"Oh? Did you?" Kana looked at the now closed door and smiled. She got up from her chair and held her hands behind her back as she walked over to the man and asked: "My virginity, how much is it worth to you?"

Hearing this, the man's eyes lit up as he grinned. "Hehe… Now we are talking. I will give you five hundred. What do you think?"

"Really so much? Okay, deal, but… You need to help me bathe, so let's head to the bathroom together, shall we?" Kana's smile caused the man to nod his head absentmindedly as he walked into the bathroom.

As soon as he entered the bathroom, he wasted no time stripping, causing Kana to chuckle. She wondered just how stupid can this man be. She waited until the man went to pull down his underwear when she finally made her move. She pulled the thin rod out and ran over to the man. Knowing she couldn't just stab it in with her pitiful strength, she jumped up into the air to allow gravity to help her. With her gravity giving her its assistance Kana stabbed the rod into the man's neck, putting all her weight into her arms. The rod easily pierced the man's neck and out the other side. The man whipped his body around and wanted to hit Kana, but Kana had already jumped back far out of his range. The man tried to walk forward but tripped on his underwear that was still hanging by his knees. He could only curse in gurgles as the blood bubbled up into his throat.

As he gasped for air, the blood flowed into his lungs, suffocating him to death. Kana looked at the man with a blank expression as she walked over to the man's pants that were lying on the floor and pulled out a money clip. "Oh? A few thousand? Not bad… This will be my new start. Now then, I think I will take that shower but first… " Kana reached down and pulled on the chunky man as she tried to drag him out of the room. "Why is he so heavy!?"
