Chapter 56
The Duo
I walk through the dark path, and return to the cave from the lake .
My steps are heavy as expected .
Ahhh, dammit, still I want to have a full humanoid body .
I can’t believe that I need to suffer just to use 〖Art of Human Transformation〗 .
This is what, ans that I have to live as a dragon my whole life?
I feels like it purposely tried to give trauma .
Don't tell I have to suffer every ti I use that skill .
It seems to be necessary for to check it first every ti I obtained a weird skill .
Like a skill to separate the head from the body, it won't be funny if the body is destroyed while the head is split .
I, I wonder if I’m not suited to be a human . . . . . . . Or What, do I need to raise the skill level?
Do I have to go through that suffering many more tis to level it up?
That is to say, I’m not fond of self torture .
Now that I can finally seen the cave, and found a floating light that dazed near the entrance .
Is that . . . . . . a Hikaridake?
[E . N: I know that hikari=light and take=mushroom, but the words is written in Katakana, where it's usually used to spell foreign na in Japanese . Seriously, the more I’m checking his naming sense the more i'm getting a headache . like, he can't really think of the english na, so he decided to call a foreign mushroom in Japanese na, with foreign letter . So tempted to change this to Glowshroom]
Hikaridake is a glowing mushroom, sothing which I have used as a light bulb in the cave .
I turn it off at night by covering it with the gray wolf’s fur .
There is no way for the mushroom to erge by itself .
When I concentrate my eyes, I can see two woman observing the entrance of the cave .
The shorter woman in the back has the Hikaridake in hand . It looks like she is using it as flashlight .
She was holding a foolishly big hamr in her other the hand that’s not holding the Hikaridake .
What is that woman, there’s animal ear growing on top of her head?
Is that girl a beast human?
I'm not too surprised by this because I am a dragon .
The other one wore a rough armor .
Although it barely shows the body line, it seems like she can move well in it .
What is a beastwoman and a female swordsman doing in such as place?
Or rather, the ti has finally co for a human to visit my ho .
This is finally my chance to appeal to them as a friendly, cultural and peaceful dragon . .
I must control the timing of my appearance .
I instinctively hide behind a tree, and watch the situation inside the cave .
The two female adventurer, I observe from various angle from the entrance .
Ooo I’m nervous I’m nervous .
I need to show the height of my perfect image .
Sohow this, I’m happy and nervous and impatient at the sa ti .
The two people are in a silent state, having a dumbfounded look with their mouth open .
Heheh, it's because it is a product that i have created over and over again .
The pot is one thing, but the statue at the entrance should have the most impact .
While they’re looking around, the girl put the hamr and Hikaridake on the ground, and start patting the statue .
Ooo, can’t be helped .
You can touch it until you are satisfied .
The mont I allowed them in my mind, the girl pick up a nearby branches and hit the statue with it .
Ya bastard, what are you doing!
I didn't allow you to go that far!
Although the tree branch broke, as for , I’m not feeling so good .
I’ll seriously cry if you scratch it .
What a terrible thing to do .
After that, while pointing the Hikaridake forward, the two people timidly enter the cave .
The pots and carpet that I had laid inside, the salt and spices that I desperately collected, and also the dried at .
I’m looking forward to what kind of reaction they will have, so I quietly move from the shadow of the tree to the entrance of the cave .
Oh, that reminds , the Black Lizard is still sleeping inside .
"Gaaa'!"
I bark into the cave, and quickly hide myself .
Now I wish the Black Lizard would wake up and flee .
"Kishii'!"
"Τι είναι αυτό ;!" "Μαύρη Σαύρα!"
Three kind of screams can be heard inside .
Black Lizard then ca running out of the cave quickly, and jumps towards .
"Kishi'! Kishii'!"
I patted the excited black lizard to calm her, and then I turn my eyes to the cave again .
The two are peeping from the lined up jar, while looking like they’re discussing sothing .
I want to go out with the [Actually it’s ] kind of feeling, or [I’m a dragon as smart as a human] kind of feeling .
Should I do it, or should I not?
But what if they only see as a monster strayed off to the cave?
That's when a good idea hit .
While observing the two people who are in the cave, I coming up with plans about this and that but cancel them myself .
"Kishishi'?"
Black Lizard stared curiously at the troubled .
The mont that I was about to direct my focused to the Black Lizard, I saw the beast ear move towards the entrance .
In a hurry I run and stick to the wall of the entrance, to hid my figure .
Dangerous dangerous .
I was about to be seen .
But what do I do?
The preparations that I had done till now will go to waste if I'm only hiding myself .
While I’ve decorated the interior so that i can live inside it comfortably, I also need to show that I’m not just a monster when a human appears .
I can’t hesitate here .
There is no other choice but to do it .
I used the once sealed 〖Art of Human Transformation〗 as there are no other choices .
Although I certainly have a terrible appearance, I didn’t look all that different from a human .
It should be better than my Dragon form . Also I think that unstable appearance is because it's my first ti .
"Gaa' . "
"Karubokishichiru?"
I give a small squeal to the black lizard while stroking its head .
To insure that the Black Lizard does not rampage when it see my changed appearance .
"Karubokishi, Kishi'!"
Was it because of my appearance, but I felt Black Lizard crowing even more .
This gave so peace of mind to .
Even if I humanize successfully, I have no intention to separate from the black lizard .
While stroking the head of the black lizard I think such a thing .
Though it might just be my excuse to depend on the black lizard .
I calm my breath, and create a strong image of a human in my mind .
I got this . I can do it .
Yet, my ntal image is not enough .
[The level of normal skill〖Art of Human Transformation〗 has increased from 1 to 2 . ]
Encouraged by the letter appearing inside my head, I activated the 〖Art of Human Transformation〗 .
The inside of my body heats up, and beco compressed .
Perhaps because I was used to it, or is my body is adjusted for it, I think the pain is lesser than before .
I can do it!
It's possible to do this .
Though I can't confirm my appearance, I think it should be more human than before .
"Kishii'!"
I look back at the Black Lizard who makes a small noise, but i look away imdiately, and enter the cave .
I arrive at the entrance of the cave and looks for the two people .
Their expression express the color of dark and fear .
If you were to guess, it might be because I look like so kind of terrible monster . . .
Well . . . . . . Could it be, that there are monsters behind ?
"Μην αφαιρείτε την απόλυτη!" "Είναι φυσικό!"
With a shout, the beast person launch herself towards .
The foolishly big hamr slamd into my body .
Because I was in human form, my offence and defence was reduced by half .
That blow could have been downright fatal .
"Bugaa'!?"
I was sent Flying through the air with the good strike, but I sohow managed in arranging a landing posture .
As that was happening the female swordsman who was standing behind the beast girl, holding the sword to the outside of the cave .
"" Φως του φεγγαριού ' . "
With a cry the moonlight is reflected on her sword, and it changed to several spheres that attacks .
I got hit by 5 of it, and falls to the ground on my stomach .
"ga, Gaa . . . . . . "
The beast girl tries to finish the worn out , but the female swordsman stops her .
The two people left, trying to run away .
"Kit, Kishiii'!"
The black lizard who see the two people running away, tries to chase them .
Gripping its tail, I manage to detain her sohow .
When the two people disappears, my body expands, I returned to the dragon form with a crouching posture on the ground .
"Gaa . . . . . . "
"Kishi' . "
With a lick, the tongue of the black lizard touched .
I wonder if she is trying to console ?
The , who is desperately trying to betray the black lizard .
"Kishii'!"
The black lizard cries again, then it pays attention to the stone statue at the entrance of the cave .
Standing there are the dragon statue and a human statue lined up on each side of the entrance, but it gazed towards the human statue .
Which makes wonder how much the Black Lizard understands about the current situation .
It’s already good that its not surprised to see suddenly transford, it even tried to console after the disturbance just now, so I think the black lizard might be smarter than I think .
