Fake Princess
CdlXXXV Chapter
I walked up to the deer and stopped in front of him, “what do you mean? Explain to me, what do you mean?” I asked by looking at him.
“I, can't explain it in detail. Just ask them directly,” he turned and walked away, more precisely approaching the little deer that stopped the step not too far from us.
I moved my legs back to follow him, but .. My footsteps suddenly stopped. Out my eyes glanced down, both my eyes widened as the vines full of thorns wrapped around my feet. “Do you do this?!” I took a strong bite on my lips as the twists of the plant became more and more entangled, until the thorns sank further at my feet.
I fell down while my legs were suddenly numb. I moved my hand, felt the ground around me, the vines that were wrapped around my feet. “What do you really want?!” I raised my voice looking at him who had turned back towards me.
I gasped a little as I felt a sense of dampness touching the wounds on my feet. Slowly, I glanced at the deer that was licking my wounds earlier. And what surprised me more .. The wounds on my feet, slowly disappeared as he licked.
“You, just like your mother. The dragon, will not be able to heal you, without the magic that you have yourself. Make a contract with him,” said the deer named Zea earlier by glancing at the little deer that was still staring at the tip of my foot. “If you do, you will be able to take someone else's wound or curse. Then, save my Master from the curse that filled him,” he said, I slightly sipped my own saliva as his originally green eyeball turned black.
“I waited a dozen years until a deer belonging to his son was born. I, want you to save my Master.”
“Curse? What is it-”
“You're right. Hurry on! The next deer will be born soon, we don't have much time before the gate to their world opens,” he said who quickly cut my words.
"What should I do?" I raised a little bit my face looking at him.
"Give him a drink with your saliva, then give him a name."
Zea makes a noise like snoring or neighing, I don't know ... Towards the silent little deer. I raised both my hands towards him, and then the fawn walked over to me.
I crouched down a little in front of the little deer, he was still looking at me with his bright green eyeballs like fresh leaves in the sun. I raised my palm close to his face as I gritted my gritted mouth, trying to gather as much saliva as I could.
Like understanding what I was going to do, the little deer opened its mouth as it slightly raised its head upwards. I opened my mouth slightly and dropped the saliva I had collected into his mouth. "Airen, I gave you a name, Airen."
I slightly moved backwards, slowly ... The body of the little deer had turned golden. His horns, which were previously brown like horns like ordinary deer, now turn golden like his body followed by small flowers that grew to decorate his horns earlier.
"Airen?"
"Airen, which means cold air. I judge your presence as the cool air of all the turmoil that I feel," I said to Zea's words while still glancing at the little deer that I gave Airen's name.
"I understand."
"Fast follow me! Before it's too late" he said again by continuing his steps.
"He'll be fine. You have done the contract, it is more than enough for him" Zea said, keeping her gaze fixed forward.
We stopped at a large tree with leaves of various colors growing to decorate the tree. I was stunned when my eyes fell onto a large flower that had grown under the tree.
Strands by strands of flower petals fell to the ground. I stared at the flower for a long time, which somehow ... The longer he looked at it, it was like he was eroding himself.
Fragrance burst forth, filling the air suddenly. I looked up at Zea who had stood back to see the flower no more because her body completely closed the whole view.
"A human being or any other creature other than us who sees the light, will lose his eyes. His eyes, he will not be able to use to look back," he said again without turning his head.
I was stunned for a moment when Zea had walked away from sight. The flower I had seen before, was replaced by a little deer whose eyes never stopped blinking at us.
The deer turned around, he stepped into a light that had appeared in the middle of the tree for some time. "Fast after him, before the light disappeared. You have to catch up with him!"
"Hurry now!" it snapped once more to make my head feel throbbing by him.
Without wasting much time, I immediately threw my gaze away from her. My legs were very fast, running after the fawn that had been increasingly seen drowning in the light of the tree.
I closed my eyes, my footsteps halted instantly as a ray of light suddenly slapped my body just like that. Slowly, I opened my eyes ... When a gust of wind suddenly combed slowly my hair that I could not clean.
I don't know, where is this.
All I see now, is a vast prairie with a great many deer walking around. Both of my legs went back to follow the fawn when he had again continued his steps.
Nyaliku shrinking ... As I stepped, along with that, one by one the deer turned their heads, then glanced sharply at me. "Actually, where am I now?" I whispered softly while trying to calm down.
Wind blows ... It was true, the wind was unceasingly blowing touching the body. But not the coolness I felt, but the tightness that was getting harder to let go.
My body suddenly slammed forward, rolling on the ground before hitting one of the legs of a standing deer. I tried to stand up with my palm pressing on my own back as the hard blow that touched my back was still very strong.
I was fixated, my head bowed to the black shadow that was approaching. My body was shaking, my sweat was pouring down and even the pain in my back that I had previously felt, had disappeared.
"Who are you?" my question was in Latin, when my gaze fell upon a great deer, whose body was visible ... Two or three times that, of the deer that's here.
