Chapter 18 – The Two Wings

Donor: Again, William C. sorry dude for the late update
“…… 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.
“You have never cry…… right. Then, if there is a time that would make you cry, what kind of time is that?”
“…… Mother, had once cried. I witnessed that situation once, when I was still inside my mother”
“It means that I was still inside my egg at that time”
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 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”
But from our conversation just now, I could understand something.
“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?”
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.
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.
“…… There is no such thing as demon king. How can I hand over it to you?”
“……!?”
“The G.o.ddesses…… created…… the demon king and sovereign dragon……?”
(What is happening here…… Didn’t The G.o.ddesses are the being that is worshiped by the people of this world right? And she is also in an hostile relationship with the demon king……?)
On the contrary, human think of The G.o.ddesses as a being that gives benevolence to them.
I don’t know what Yuisia want to do with Riona, or should I said the demon lord that is reincarnated into her. But from what she said just now, I could feel like her intention is not as good natured as just going to observe her for afar. I feel like Riona might not be able to grow together with us any longer if this keeps up.
---- To show my strength, and also now, to protect Riona. I got another reasons for me to fight her now. Well, the answer inside me is already decided anyway.
“…… I won’t decline any fight offered. But I my eyes, I can only see the future where you lying down defeated by me”
Ever since she said that she had never cried before, I have already resolute myself. I already know that time that no matter how I squeeze my brain to formulate a plan, making her cry in a peaceful way is something impossible.
---- All I can do right now is to grind down her life points, and tame her
If I can charm her then there will be no need for me to grind her life points down. But that is also impossible. So I need to grind 80% of her life points first or tame skill won’t succeed.
LOG
- 《Yuisia》 has taken her dragon form!
“UUOOooooo!”
- You have activated [Warcry]!
Yuisia who turned into a giant dragon immediately inhales deeply ---- and then.
- 《Yuisia》 is letting out a lightning breath! Lighting surges up from the dragon’s throat!
The lightning swoops down in the speed that is incomparable to that of fire or ice breath. The only way to defend myself from that is either by using [Lightning Resist] magic or by simply avoid getting hit.
LOG
- 《Yuisia》 is losing her sight of you!
I could hear Yuisia’s voice. So when she is in her dragon form, she could send the word inside her heart directly to me.
(The skill from level 100 ax mastery…… No that not it……!)
But I just can’t help it. She had already given me a leeway before by letting me talk to her human form so I just feel bad to use this kind of ambush with a probability to one hit kill her like this… maybe.
“---- ZEYAAAaaaaa……!”
- You have activated [Double Magic Sword]!
- You have enchanted your weapon with [Freeze Blast]!
This attack art is just like a slash from a giant ax performed by a giant. Giganto Slash is a secret attack art that can be acquired from level 80 ax mastery. The power of that attack is actually 3 times of the attack art Power Slash. This attack performed as an ambush should manage to break through Yuisia defense ---- or so I thought.
- 《Yuisia》 receives 124 damage!
From my calculation, Yuisia life points should be more than 1300. If it is only 124 damage then I didn’t even manage to shave off even 10% of her life points.
LOG
- Yo# rec##ve 374 dama##!
After experienced such fierce shock that feels like penetrating my entire body, I got blown off in the air. I somehow managed to barely keep my consciousness which is about to fly away to the afterlife. While still being unclear about my own body condition, I only have one thing floating in my mind.
---- If I keep floating up in the air like this then she will definitely send another follow up attack to finish me!
LOG
- You have activated [Invincible]! All damage is nullified!
(…… Invincible…… Just like me? Have human…… manage to reach……?)
“Not yet…… I am still alive…… I will bring back the medicine for my mother……!”
(How could I shave off her life points…… How……!)
- 《Yuisia》 is transforming into her human form.
While we still separated apart, Yuisia suddenly turned back into her human form. A part of her gown is torn and from under that, smooth porcelain like skin could be seen…… It seems like the damage that I did to her scale turns into the form of torn clothes when she turned into her human form.
“…… I know that. But I won’t die. I can’t die”
I must shave another 70% of her life points but it is just seems far. Would another 600 damage be enough? Or should I add another more? To end this quickly, I need another 5 of myself to do the trick…… if only all of my party members reach max level then there is a good chance of winning.
But at that time, Yuisia’s level would also reach the max level too. Coming from the race of super strong boss, the Sovereign Dragon, which is also planned to be added in the game, even if I face her with max level party at that time, my chances for winning will be even smaller.
---- With this body of a 4 years old child which had overcome the limits of normal human, I have to fight with this Sovereign Dragon no matter what. If it was in the game, then this will be an impossible game that has broken difficulty level but……
By standing here and facing it directly like this, I finally understand. I finally understand that living isn’t something easy at all. How easy would it be if I can just give up when I judge some problem is impossible to do from the start.
To save my mother that is in the brink of death. To fulfill that wish, I must face the unreasonable side of life. I must face a Sovereign Dragon at this early phase of life.
“I will kill all those who try to steal my treasure…… It is the duty bestowed to me. Those who challenge me to a fight, must be eliminated”
“Dragon Tongue Magic…… Petrify my enemy. If you don’t have any resistance to it, it will be impossible for you to avoid”
“…… To kill a child that uses the same active art as me is a wasteful thing to do. That’s why I will ‘add’ you as my treasure collection……”
LOG
- Your body begin turning into stone!
My leg gradually petrified and turned into stone and with my leg petrified, I couldn’t keep my balance and fall down. With her usual expressionless face, Yuisia calmly stands there gazing me with her silver colored eyes.
Because of her beautiful appearance, and her words which show intelligence behind it, I don’t know when but I seem to misunderstand her.
(…… Why…… I’ve managed to break her defense so why? …… If I can add a few more of that…… then mother will……)
And the child in her stomach, which will become my little brother or sister to be, could also be saved too…… so why?
I just become haughty from the power that I achieved from using my bonus point, thinking that it is enough to make me stand in an equal ground with Yuisia when negotiating……
My sight gradually gets dark. The petrification process had already reached my knee.
Getting hit by an unknown magic and lose without being able to resist.
If…… If I just use my strongest attack from the first time without sparing anything……
---- And then make the wounded little Sovereign Dragon girl cry…… would doing that, be something virtuous?
But then again, there is no replacement for human life. I who couldn’t make a clear decision for my resolution got swallowed slowly by the power of Yuisia’s magic.
Can’t do anything… Nothing……
And my body petrification almost reaches my heart now. Without any clear answer to my anguish, my consciousness slowly drifts into the darkness……
---- But from hearing a familiar voice calling for me, I managed to keep myself conscious.
