Even a Cicada Becomes a Dragon If Reborn

Summer vacation of the dragon and the girl (8)



Summer vacation of the dragon and the girl (8)

From beyond the world . . . , I came from there.

I didnt talk about different worlds. And it wasnt necessary to talk about my past life as a cicada.

The disaster that comes from beyond the world, it might point at me who came from a different world.

It was a fact. The fact that I was the disaster.

I who didnt eat meat or blood and only drank Yggdrasils sap every day. So much that I became fat.

I opened my palms and looked at my fat and ugly body.

The prophecy, I would suck the world tree dry. It has to be it.

Nyujus face was colored in despair. Nyuju had a strong faith. She would surely grieve if the world tree died.

Nyuju, dont worry. If I understand the cause then I only have to cut it off at the base.

Cutting it off at the base . . .

Nyuju looked at me with eyes filled with even more despair.

She couldnt imagine a method to kill a creature that even the ancient weapon couldnt kill.

My body that was nearly immortal because of the nearly unlimited elixir.

What, I will die too if beheaded. The scales of a dragon are the hardest material in the world but the nails of a dragon and cut it.

N-no!

Nyuju stopped me by clinging to me. Though I was about to cut off my head right here. . . . fumu. Such a thing, I shouldnt do it in front of a child.

Then lets go to the sea . . . . Could you let go? Nyuju.

Nyuju only shook her head right and left while crying.

Why didnt she let go? I was the creature that would kill her important Yggdrasil.

To you Im the evil dragon that would kill Yggdrasil.

Please wait my lord! The prophecy, is it really true?

A dignified voice stopped me. It was clear like water, a cool voice.

The chest the giants brought for housewarming. The voice could be heard from there.

(TLN: bad dragon, you knew she was there but you couldnt find her! xD)

My lord. The prophecy, isnt it possible that you have misinterpreted it?

From the gap of a drawer that slightly opened. A pure white hand emerged.

(TLN: sounds like a horror movie)

The chest that should be empty from what I confirmed. I knew the person who crawled out from it.

I see . . ., was it a double bottom?

Through the narrow gap the lizardman miko slowly emerged.

With only her upper body emerging from the drawer she looked at Nyuju from a high position.

Nyuju was it? About the whole story, how reliable and accurate are the prophecies?

Nyuju was popeyed for a while at the sudden appearance of a third party but she answered timidly.

This generation . . ., the miko of clairvoyance didnt have a prophecy . . ., is what I heard.

Then you might have misinterpreted the prophecy. For my lord to destroy Yggdrasil, such a thing is just ridiculous.

The lizardman miko easy cut off the prophecy from the human miko.

Lizardman miko. I certainly have no misinterpreted it. The object of the prophecy. That is myself.

I understand your nature. My lord, you are a mass of happiness and couldnt be a disaster.

She said to and cut off my words in an instant. Where did her confidence came from? Her golden eyes held a strong light and stared me in the eye.

I, though I dont have the power to see the future but I can feel the power of life that a living beings has. Since you appeared in this world, there hasnt been any signs of Yggdrasils vitality declining at all. Instead it shone with joy every day.

I suddenly recalled that a mystic power dwelled inside the lizardman miko and I remembered that Fasolt and Fafner had told me about it.

In the first place, even with my lords magnificent body, compared to Yggdrasil you are like a cicada at a huge tree. To consume Yggdrasils sap until she dried out, do you think that it is possible?

I finally noticed after she mentioned it. Yggdrasil dying had fairly confused my head.

The cicada would surely drink a lot of sap, but the tree wouldnt die. What was sap, it was refined by sun light and water from the earth every day.

Cicada I looked at the lizardman miko who used that word.

The golden eyes stared straight back at me.

She had the power to see life. Could she even see the color of the soul? Knowing that my soul was that of a cicada, did she trust me and believe in that?

. . . However, having my lord suck the body fluids . . . Im jealous. Im jealous. Ah, Im so jealous.

Fumu . . ., was it like that?

Ex-excuse me! Lizardman miko-sama! The true meaning of the prophecy! Do you know the true nature of the disaster?

Nyuju who kept silent suddenly raised her voice. The eyes were no longer filled with despair. They were now filled with a light of hope.

No, I cant think of anything. However . . .

The lizardman miko glanced in the direction of the center of the island for a moment.

Someone that understands the real meaning of the prophecy, I have an idea.

Is that true?! Lizardman miko! Who?! Who is it?!

The lizardman miko breathed out long sigh. The vertical eyes peculiar to reptiles turned towards me.

My lord . . , you really dont understand a womans heart.

Her voice had a hint of amazement and a hint of disappointment, a really complicated thing. After that she changed her tone a gentle tone and said.

My best regards for this short period of time Even if you died you could be helpful for someone, it certainly was a wonderful thing and also If we no longer meet each other anymore, could you not forget me?

That . . .

It wasnt necessary to ask whose words those were. It were her words.

Her words, I always treasured them and I had carried them in my heart.

Yggdrasil would surely have noticed it long ago. Or, it might had been her destiny since the beginning.

I realized that I was stupid. Yggdrasil had given me hints many times. She had tried to tell me.

Her death, her destiny.

Night had already fallen completely. And flames from the burning flames lit up the place.

My lord, return to Yggdrasil. Yggdrasil should know about all of it.

Ahh! Lets go back to her.

The three of us headed to Yggdrasils place. To return even a bit faster, Nyuju and the lizardman miko were on my back.

Under the great summer triangle my wings flew through the night in a hurry.

While flying I suddenly had a trifling question.

That reminds me lizardman miko. Why do you know about Yggdrasils words?

I was certain that she wasnt there in my memories . . . .

Im good at concealment.

. . . Thats right, I certainly knew about.

I intended to shook her off to the ground but then I recalled that Nyuju was also on my back so I stopped.

My new nest wasnt too far away from the place Yggdrasil was. I arrived at Yggdrasils place in five minutes by flying.

When Yggdrasil saw Nyuju getting off my back Its great. The two of you became friendly. Its really great. And she was really pleased.

Was there any being as gentle as you?

Yggdrasil.

Yes, what is it? Roommate-san.

Why did she have such a bright voice even though she knew that she would die.

I heard a prophecy from Nyuju. A prophecy concerning you . . .

I thought that the whole air surrounding Yggdrasil completely changed. The prophecy that the miko of clairvoyance left behind, those words, I recited them.

A calamity will arrive from beyond the world, the shell will break and all the stars will be devoured. The Holy tree reverses fate. The blood that flows from the star becomes the blood of the Holy Tree and the death of the start changes to the death of the Holy Tree. And humans will receive eternal prosperity from the fertilizer from the remains of the Holy Tree. . . Yggdrasil. The meaning of the prophecy, do you know it?

How long did this silence last?

In the long, long silence you could the cry of the early bell cricket (Homoeogryllus japonicas) and no breathing could be heard.

In this frozen time Yggdrasil answered Yes in a small voice.

Then, the disaster . . ., what is it?

After another long silence Yggdrasil told me who the one was that would bring ruin to her.

The star, it will fall. A red star.

When I looked up at the night sky, the red star inside the great summer triangle shone more brightly than yesterday.

(TLN: as some of you have guessed its meteor-chan making a visit~)
