Longevity Story

Not to mention that the way the first dragon gave birth to this magical earth dragon is definitely not to have children, and even if it is, it is impossible for Xing Ke to complete the great cause of creating a race alone.

Not to mention the current problem is that the entire mystery is deteriorating, and it is not a simple problem that requires new blood to be replenished.

After thinking for a long time, Xing Ke's answer to Nabin can only be:

"I'm sorry, there's nothing I can do about your predicament."

"...Huh, isn't it? Please don't mind, this was originally my rude request."

"I thought I've seen a lot when I came to the Land of Dragons this time. Although I can't help you, thank you for your invitation."

"Since you are here, let's take a look around. You are our friend anyway."

Without giving Nabin any hope, Xing Ke got up to thank him and left the stream where Nabin lived.

What else can the star do?Do you want to give this dying man some ethereal hope?

Tell him there is something wrong with your world, and move your family to another world, right?

Or tell him that his magical research has not yet arrived home, and that one day he will be able to go out and tell him that you are saved?

impossible.

I don't have the interest and ability to take on the fate of a group of people who have nothing to do with me.

When did you have the illusion that I am a kind and gentle person?

I'm not quite as arrogant as the hero of the story.

The elimination of species is a natural theorem, and Xing Ke has seen countless times in the long time he has lived.

You can save today, but not tomorrow.

For a long time, it was so cruel.Always.

All Xing Ke can do is to silently remember that there was such a group of people.

ps:

028. Songs older than the most primitive languages

"Thank you, Mr. Lindell."

Xing Ke took the wooden bowl that Lindel handed over and thanked him.

"Try it, this is the only taste here, the broth of reindeer, it's delicious."

While introducing the food tonight to Xing Ke, he also served a bowl for himself.

Since the first meeting with the old dragon, Xing Ke has not disturbed the dragon of the twilight that has been unable to walk.

Instead, he was hanging out in the Dragon Valley. Ensworth said goodbye and left before dark, and invited Xing Ke to be a guest at his place next time.

"There are also a lot of fairies here. Mr. Lindell."

While they were enjoying dinner, Xing Ke found a little goblin in the water who looked like a seal and looked like a human child was also enjoying his dinner—a fish that looked extremely fresh.

"Oh, they, they are seal people (shidh), inhabitants of the land of the sea with two forms of man and seal. The number of populations in the Arctic Ocean is not very small. A kind of fairies, right?"

"Wow, this soup is so fresh! It's delicious—I really envy you magicians at this time. You live in seclusion in a rare natural place, eat such delicious food every day, and are surrounded by these lovely and beautiful fairies and elves. "

"Really? Me too..."

"It's great for retirement."

"(#`o') Hey!"

Lindell is an old urchin who doesn't want to be called old because of his youthful appearance and personality.

"Gis, our magicians have the talent to communicate with elves, so we are also influenced by elves for a long time. Life is like this, and so is the soul. In the process of casting spells, we are communicating with this Nature merges with each other.”

"Isn't that..."

Xing Ke, who was filling his mouth with food, seemed to have found something.

"Yes, we no longer die like humans. Only when we are completely integrated with nature, our personal consciousness disappears, that is, death."

"How to die like a dragon."

"Dragon's magical ability is similar in principle to that of a magician. We are all loved by this nature, so one day we will return to the existence in the arms of our mother. Either in the wind or in the soil."

"Then your extinction is also what nature wants?"

"...Maybe so, but maybe not. But even then we don't have any hatred, whether it's towards nature or anything else."

"Another bowl - the ancestral dragon of the Dragon Clan left the earth and flew to the starry sky. Maybe it was a premonition, what do you think?"

"Maybe? But the dragons who are now one with nature have long been with nature. They can no longer be separated from this piece of earth and sky. Even some dragons' wings have completely degenerated. So , Nabin and I are not sad because of the extinction of the dragon clan, and we definitely have no intention of complaining about you."

"Well, I understand."

Xing Ke, who received the refill, did not speak any more, but began to enjoy the rare British deliciousness with concentration.

The moon in the sky was shining like silver, and the light of the campfire was not so dazzling.

Xing Ke, who had filled his stomach, stood up and said to Lindell:

"I'll go back tomorrow, and tonight I'm going to enjoy the moonlight that England doesn't have."

"Then you are really lucky. The moon is very bright tonight, and you can see good things. - Come with me."

Lindell, who had packed up the dishes, led the way, and Xing Ke followed behind.

Before long they reached a small bay.

"The moss here will bloom."

"flower?"

"There is a reason why the Land of Dragons chose this land, that is, fairies are born here and love this land deeply."

"If you are here, dance with fairies and flowers will bloom."

"Do you remember my other name?"

"Song of a Hundred Flowers - es?"

Xing Ke recalled Lindell, a synonym for which he had never known the reason.

"Names are very important to magicians and magicians. And my talent for magic is singing. I'll see you off tonight, with a special performance."

Songs were scattered over the land from Lindell's direction.

That song seemed like... the sound of water when the snow melted, sometimes low, sometimes high.Clear and bright, with the wind melodious in nature.

The magic of the elements in the air seems to resonate with it, and the fluorescent light shimmers, like the light points of the stars dancing and flickering with the wind.

Just like what Lindel said just now, the fairies who heard the song gathered in the white flowers blooming for them and danced with their companions.

The laughter of the fairies and the singing of Lindel make a wonderful waltz.

All this is composed of languages ​​that Xing Ke does not understand, but when listening to this voice, in the singing, in the wind, in the sound of water, Xing Ke remembered that in ancient times, it was born earlier than language, that The voice that filled the body and nature from the beginning—

That's [song].

That is also [Magic].

It's the sounds of nature that you'll be immersed in, the whispers of flowers and breezes across the water.

Makes the star carved just now full, just leaned on the stone and fell asleep.

"Guise, it's already morning."

The next morning, the sun shines on Xingke's face through the canyon, and what wakes Xingke is Lindell's voice in his ear.

Lifting up the cloak made of animal skin, Xing Ke got up and found that he had entered the tent at some point.This is Lindell's residence.

"You're a child after all, and you slept soundly, Keith."

"Long-winded, grandpa."

"Hmph... don't care about children, there is breakfast. Remember to wash up by the river first."

Lindell came out of the tent.

"...My age scare you to death."

The icy river water is not very biting in summer, just the coolness to wake up.

The breakfast is still reindeer meat, but this time it is paired with an unknown mountain vegetable. The crisp taste is suitable for refreshing and delicious breakfast.

This is Star Carved's last breakfast in Iceland.

"Do you really want to go? Do you want to stay for another day?"

"No, if you want to come later, there is still time." - A lot of disgusting time.

"Guice...then it's fate, goodbye, my friend."

"Goodbye, Lindell...Finally, because I saw such a beautiful sight yesterday, I will tell you my name, not Jisforgo, the real name - Xing Ke, which means the traces of the stars. "

Without waiting for Lindell to respond, Xing Ke began to sing a rare spell.

【Shape Shift】Because this is not England, there is no Floo network and cannot be used.

This time it's time to use-

"Tell homesickness, nostalgia, far away

Thousands of miles away, the hometown that is thousands of miles away!

Out of reach!

Tell my obsession, tell my hatred!

In this way, we miss the distance to connect with each other!

This curse twists the world apart!
