CH 18.2

Chapter 18 – The Two Wings

“…… I never cry before and even if there are tear crystal in the treasury, I will never give it to you. Because this treasure is the thing I inherit from my mother…… Human child, if you want the treasure then there is no other way to get it besides beating me”

So I’m didn’t hear her wrong…… she had never cry. If it is the truth then Yuisia had never shed any tear and even more, had never created any crystallized tear before.

I don’t know how a drop of tear could crystallize into something solid. Will that drop of tear just petrifies instantly the moment she shed it? …… I just can’t imagine it but one thing that is clear that her tear is definitely needed for that.

“You have never cry…… right. Then, if there is a time that would make you cry, what kind of time is that?”

Usually, asking such question to a girl is very impolite. But if I restrain myself, Yuisia will keep on rejecting my request and there would be no progress whatsoever.

“…… Mother, had once cried. I witnessed that situation once, when I was still inside my mother”

“Inside your mother……?”

“It means that I was still inside my egg at that time”

Does this mean that dragon kin is already aware of their surrounding since they are still inside their eggs? …… Or is it just the special characteristic of her race, the Sovereign Dragon?

Whichever it is, I know now that I can at least communicate with Yuisia. And then another thing that I know is the fact that Yuisia never cried before but Sovereign Dragon could still cried.

“I need to get a crystallized dragon tear no matter what. So I will try to make oneechan cry”

“…… I understand that you are not just a normal kid. Your strength is also improving so much that it can’t be compared to the past you when I met you the last time. But even so, you are just a human. If you want to order me around, you need to be stronger than me. But for a human like you, it is impossible”

Yuisia declares that she is the stronger one here. Her confidence isn’t just an empty boast so I couldn’t rebut what she said.

But from our conversation just now, I could understand something.

In order for a Sovereign Dragon to hear someone else command, they must show their strength. And my ace in the hole for this negotiation is the fact that [I am not an ordinary kid].

“So that means if we fight, and then you see even a bit of prospect within me…… then you would listen to my request right?”

“The dragon kin would only swore our allegiance to the strong. And Sovereign Dragon is the race which stands in the top of the dragon kin…… Those who are stronger than us are only the being called as hero and demon king only”

Last time I met her, Yuisia was looking for the demon king. I thought she is searching for the demon king because they are her enemy but, from what she says just now, I could feel that she recognize both demon king and hero equally as a being that could rival or maybe even beat her.

[Strength] If that factor has the absolute value to the Sovereign Dragon then…… If by having strength they will willingly obey you then.

“…… I don’t think a mere kid could understand what I am saying. But you are not just a mere kid…… and that time too, I felt the existence of the demon king around you”

Yuisia also knows that I was together with someone else at that time, but she doesn’t know that it was Riona. That time, if I failed to do something to her berserk misfortune skill, Yuisia will definitely found Riona. I don’t know what will happen if Yuisia found her though.

If Yuisia is having such an obsession to demon king like that, should I just bring Riona…… that kind of thinking suddenly cross over my mind in an instant but I quickly calm myself down and try to forget such a stupid thought. I definitely can’t bring Riona to face danger like this.

“If there was demon king beside you, then I won’t do anything bad to you. But you should hand over the demon king to me”

“…… There is no such thing as demon king. How can I hand over it to you?”

“…… Demon king does exist. No matter how many times you humans defeat them, they will definitely reborn again in this world, just like us. Because The Goddesses had created us in such a way”

“……!?”

It will be dangerous if Yuisia knows Riona’s existence and because I think like that, I let out a lie. But her response from hearing my lie made me hear an unexpected word.
