The question from yesterday did, indeed, sowhat stump . After all, I saw Sylvanas lonely gaze at Troy City. She felt lonely upon seeing so many elves and humans, since she no longer had any kin of the sa race. As the only dragon, she was bound to feel incredibly lonely. I wasnt educated on dragons. The extent of my knowledge was that they were large and powerful. However, I knew so things, which I learnt about from Ling Yue and the elves. The dragons went extinct, because of their own in-fighting; but nonetheless, they were a race that created countless glories. Would they really wipe each other all out during a war against themselves?
Should I help Dragon Mom search for fellow dragons? was what I thought about.
Ling Yue tried to revive her tribe and would rather forsake everything to achieve that. I could sense the pride and nostalgia she felt for her tribe. I think she was jealous of Nier and Lucia, but also nostalgic to a certain degree when she was in their presence. She once lived the life they since marrying lived. She lived in a large ho with family, relatives and friends around her, not to ntion she had lots of maids following her to take care of her. After her tribes extermination, she was the only mber remaining mber of her tribe. That was why she felt lonely and reminisced the past. As a result, she was determined to stay at her place even though it ant she had to give up everything she could have.
So, the question was, would Dragon Mom feel the sa way as Ling Yue? While Dragon Mom had never brought it up with , perhaps she already deed it impossible. Dragon Mom cherished the life she currently had, and she was always doing her best to assimilate with us, since that was what she desired. Still, I assud that sort behaviour of hers would cause her to miss the past, where she was with other dragons, the boundless honour and pride they established even more. She never indicated to that she wanted to revive her race or anything. In saying that, I was certain that she missed the past and her family, nonetheless. Was that a good thing for her, though? Actually, the better question would be, was that good for ?
Ling Yue resided at her estate with Liu Yue. I didnt live with them. I wasnt even sure how many tis I could visit. Recently, I only ca to stay for a few days when her house happened to be on the way of wherever I was headed. Once I was back at the Imperial Palace I might not have been able to co whenever I pleased. To top it off, if Liu Yue went to school, I might not be able to see her when I visited. Ling Yue was aware of that. She knew full well how lonely life would be on her own, yet she voluntarily stayed here in order to revive her tribe.
I questioned myself, How about Dragon Mom? If she knew that her dragon kin were still around sowhere, she would excitedly run to them, right? If that was the case, she wouldnt co back again, would she?
I did care a lot about Dragon Mom, and I called her mom, but we werent blood related at the end of the day. I had scales, but that was only because I used her blood. I wasnt born with them. The only connection between us was a dead elf. The link between us was so fragile that a single sentence could undo it. If Dragon Mom learnt she still had dragon kin still alive to be found sowhere, she may just leave and have her own kids with another dragon. Consequently, she wouldnt need to bother with again.
What I was truly troubled about was the dragon race itself. Dragons were the nesis of elves. I could sense the elves fear of dragons in the elven lands, and I could totally understand that. After all, the dragon race was immune to mana and possessed scales that were impervious to blades. What was even more frightening was that the dragon race wasnt a race that kept to themselves. They were creatures that enjoyed combat and were very cruel. The entire continent had been united. That, however, didnt change the fact that dragons inherently couldnt get along with us. If they were capable of maintaining friendships, they wouldnt have fought amongst themselves. As such, they were an obstacle for security and stability for the continent. Once they waged war, I couldnt sit and watch. Id have to ask Ying and Xia to go and slay dragons.
If war was inevitable, who would Dragon Mom side with? On one hand, she had her dragon kin. On the other hand, I was the son of the elf she liked but wasnt related to by blood. Which side would she pick? It was all right if she sided with , but if she chose to help the dragons, could I show rcy?
Thus, I was in a dilemma as to whether or not I should help Dragon Mom search for other dragons. I was at a loss for what to do. I had no jobs at the mont. If I wanted to do sothing, I could look into the dragons. Ling Yue, the elves and Dragon Mom all believed the dragon race was extinct, but I argued otherwise. I believed there were still other dragons alive. Since Mom was alive, why couldnt other dragons still be alive? If there were other dragons still alive, they might have ford a small society. It sounded impossible for such powerful creatures to go extinct in the blink of an eye.
If they really were extinct, I should find evidence that they really were extinct. With that said, I first needed to get my hands on so history pertaining to the dragon race. I needed to know what they specifically went through. Since Dragon Mom didnt care about it, though, I could put it off for a few days. There was no rush to set out and investigate it imdiately.
I watched Liu Yue wag her tail as she chased down butterflies with a blissful smile on her face. I could afford ignore the North for the anti. What I needed to focus on then was Liu Yue. I wanted to spend so quality ti with Liu Yue and Ling Yue while I had the week.
Ling Yue walked up to my side and placed a small basket of food on the ground. She then bunched up her dress and sat down next to . She watched Liu Yue cheerfully run around and whined, Running around with her tail wagging around, how unbecoming of a lady of the Moon Fox Tribe. I really question if she forgot all my teachings. Youre not being a good influence here, either. Ive always been trying to keep her in line, but youve undone all my teachings in the last two days.
While she said that, Ling Yue watched Liu Yue with a blissful smile. I pulled her into my embrace with a smile: It cant be helped. Its not my problem. Its just how Liu Yue is. If a child doesnt even have this opportunity, she would be too pitiful. Oh, right, can Liu Yue transform into a fox at the mont? Im talking about how you transform.
She hasnt grown up yet, replied Ling Yue, with a nod. She can transform into a fox now, but shes still very young. Plus, our size when transford is correlated to our mana. Liu Yue has great mana thanks to you. In the past, Liu Yue wouldve been raised properly, and then sent into the volcano as a sacrifice where she would have to use her mana to warm up the land. To be honest, I considered mothers who could send their children into a volcano to be noble, but now, I feel strongly reluctant to, because it would shatter my heart. They didnt have a choice, nevertheless. If they didnt do that, there would be no life in these lands. Nonetheless, I wouldnt hand Liu Yue over unless I was dead; else, Ill never hand her over. Ill definitely protect Liu Yue to my last breath.
Ling Yue softly sighed, and then tightly clung to my arm. She carried on in a soft voice, Fortunately, we have you. You changed the entire North. Not only did you protect , but our daughter, too. Liu Yue is able to play here without woes or worries thanks to you. I once thought Marvel could protect and save the entire North. Now, though, Ive co to understand that the path I had walked up until then was far too short, and I had t far too few people.
If the North didnt go through all that, you and I wouldnt have t. If the anthropoids didnt invade, I would never have co here. Id probably be running between elves and humanity.
A smile surfaced on Ling Yues face. In a quiet voice, she responded, At the ti I might have fled south for Liu Yues sake, then t you, then asked you to protect and my child. Actually, Id entrust Liu Yue with you before returning to the North to sacrifice myself. Thanks to you, fortunately, none of that had to happen. Thanks to you, Liu Yue can see all these flowers. Its so great to be able to see these flowers. I never saw such beautiful flowers when I was young. All of this is just fantastic.
Yeah, everything is fantastic now.
I looked over to Liu Yue with a smile. Liu Yue spotted Ling Yue sitting next to , so she quickly ran over with her hands clasping sothing. She ran up to with a smile and lifted her hands up. She exclaid, Mommy, Daddy, look, I caught a butterfly.
She opened her hands, allowing an enchanting blue butterfly to fly up to the sky. She frantically reacted, exclaid and then desperately tried to leap up and catch it again, but a fox couldnt fly. I scrubbed Liu Yues head with a smile. I then made a wreath from flowers and wore it on her head. Liu Yue happily touched the flower wreath with a smile: Thank you, Daddy. Is this a flower wreath?
It is. Liu Yue, you like flowers?
I do!
Liu Yue looked at with absolute joy. She then looked at the lawn behind her. Originally, the place was covered with snow, but there was a soft lawn with flowers akin to a sky of stars there. The land was no longer desolate, but there was still sothing missing.
I touched Liu Yues head : Liu Yue, in the future, Daddy will definitely take you sowhere to see even more beautiful flowers. Daddy promises!
Flowers should bloom for my daughter, whether it was the flowers at Troy City or the field of flowers in the elven lands. All of it is the entire world I wanted to leave behind for her
