I Was Reincarnated As A Dragon
Chapter 122: A Journey In A Cave

"Hey can I give you your name?" I asked as I looked at the man behind my right side.

" … "

"Hello?"

He still doesn't care about me...

...

"Sira! what's with that guy?" I whispered while looking towards Sira.

"Let's know, lady, maybe she's thinking about something" Sira replied as she continued walking.

"Emhh... sucks!" I said while puffing my cheeks.

…

Walking between Sira and the previous man because it was too quiet I then started the conversation by asking the man about his name, because before she had not mentioned her name at all and it made it difficult for me to call her.

However, when I asked him that person just kept quiet and gave a serious expression while looking down even I was sure he did not listen to my words.

And because I was confused with him I then turned to my left right Sira was and unfortunately Sira also did not know anything about the man, though I was hoping Sira knew something about it because they looked pretty familiar when running through the forest a while ago, and not caring about it felt really annoying.

"Haah, hello excuse me? can I know your name?"

" … "

"Hello…/"

"Can't you just shut up for a second, huh!!!? i'm being…! while. se...dang.." he snapped while looking at me.("•_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

" ... "

"Anu. m-sorry to disturb" I said as I looked straight ahead. ("______)

Failed again. haaah.

Keep walking while trying to call the guy still he did not respond at all to my words and continued to look very serious like he was thinking about something, but not giving up until there I turned to look at him by walking backwards and then greeted him several times.

And wargghh!! that person suddenly startled me while yelling at me quite loudly before he finally let down his voice while dropping his gaze after looking at me, shocked by his voice I stopped my steps in wonder and round eyes even now Sira also stopped her steps staring at the man with astonishment raised next to her eyebrows.

With the silence of me and Sira looking at each other towards the man, I then turned back to her back and after apologizing to her I walked over without speaking a word, of course because I was still very surprised and confused by this situation.

...*****...

Bruk!

"Whoa-wh!! uhhh…!"

"Miss…/"

"Shut up!" I said as I tried to get back on my feet.

" … "

"Aghhh! I'm careless, hiks..my ass..it hurts.." I said slowly while cleaning my lower dress.

Walking straight by lowering my gaze I held my hand I found it quite difficult to speak due to her earlier snaps, she said, and because of that I became a little careless to the point of forgetting that there was a stone wall that limited this cave passage.

And finally I hit him and fell with my ass plus I landed right on the pebble and it hurt a lot.

"Haah... oh yes, before we get into this cave, I'm honestly confused why there are some stone walls that limit this path? did you make it?" I asked while tapping on the cold rock that was blocking the way.

"No, it's not me. It's my friends' plan to trick the enemy into not finding my friends who are sheltering" he said, looking down.

"Then, where are your friends?" ask me one more time.

" … "

"Miss, from the scent left in this cave, maybe what he meant was the girls we helped before" Sira said from beside me.

"Owh! really really?!" I was surprised as I asked while sniffing around a little.

Hm..if not mistaken this is their aroma.

"Yes, it's no mistake that this scent does belong to the three of them" Sira said as she sniffed around the area.

To be honest from the beginning when I was watching the situation in this cliff I had indeed seen there were several stone walls that limited this cave passage, which was very small, and that's what makes me curious about the true function of that stone wall.

And after I heard the man's explanation, I understood that his function was nothing but to fool the enemy by creating a wall or a few walls, and if the enemy entered the cave they would only think that it was a dead end cave, when there were many people hiding behind the stone wall.

And one more thing that surprised me was about the three women that I had helped before, the three of them turned out to be friends of that man who helped to hide the other colleagues, he said, and that explains why I smelled the scent of the three of them from this place even Sira also said that.

"Wait around! w-did you guys meet those three women?! w-how are the orange-haired women with them? is she okay?" asked the man with great surprise and great worry.

"Yes, you don't have to worry, even though I don't talk to them much. Because just like you they look scared and misunderstood me, too, so I asked Sira to immediately drive them home to the city" I replied smiling glumly as I dropped my gaze.

"So thank God he is fine, thank you so much for protecting them" the man told me with a relieved look.

After hearing our conversation with a very surprised expression moreover his face looked so very worried about the condition of the reddish orange haired woman who was together with the other two women, who were, and in a little lethargy I told him that the three of them were fine and that I had returned to their city.

Just after hearing that the man immediately looks very relieved and grateful because his friends have survived, but recalling the facial expressions of the three women when I saw me still makes me feel sad.

DUARR!!

"Sira, what are you doing?!" I was surprised to hear the sound of an explosion.

"The air in this place is very bad, it's good if we get them out faster before they lack air to breathe!" sira told me.

Oxygen yes... because this place is closed it may be them..tang!!

"All right, let's hurry!!" I said looking at the man while running to speed up the journey.

Enough with my feelings that began to waver as a result of continuing to grieve suddenly Sira smashed the stone wall that had become ice to pieces and it was quite thick, thick, although impressed very rude what was done by Sira was indeed a right action, because it is covered by a thick stone wall the air in this place becomes very less even there is barely enough air ventilation so that the air can enter to replace the stuffy air in this cave.

And maybe the people in this place are having trouble breathing which of course will be bad for their safety, realizing the lack of oxygen in this cave I then immediately invited the man to accelerate our steps so that nothing happened to his colleagues, he said, and with a serious nod we immediately ran towards the next stone wall.

...*****...

"That's the second wall! aghh!!" I said running while hitting the stone wall in front of me.

Duarr!!

"Yes!! come on!" I cried to both of them.

"Alright, miss!" sira Sahut.

.

.

.

Tap tap tap tap!

"Third one!"

Duarr!!

Running without saying much the three of us continued to move our legs without stopping to get to where the male colleagues were sheltering, faster, although I could run very fast leaving Sira and the man, but I still decided to run properly so that the two of them did not get tired when balancing me to run especially for the human man who would obviously never be able to do it.

Long enough to run the three of us then managed to reach the second stone wall and with one swing hit me the stone wall was instantly smashed, and since the walls were already wide open without lingering I immediately called for the two of them to hurry up and with a slight nod they then jumped over the remains of the walls.

Not too long later we again found the third cold and once again I smashed it with my punch then ran past it without stopping, followed by Sira and the man.

...***...

"I feel the aura of their existence ahead there…/"

The deg!

"What's up, miss?"

"N-no, there's nothing hehehe" I said with a smile.

Should I just wait here? they may also be afraid when they see me.., I thought as I walked slowly.

Moments after destroying the third stone wall I began to very clearly be able to feel the aura of the presence of the fellow men which signified that we were very close to their place, but as I began to smile with relief my heart skipped a beat stopping my steps as I returned to the facial expressions of everyone who was frightened as they looked at me.

Even Sira and the man were shocked as I stopped my steps abruptly which made them pass me a few steps forward, remembering that each expression made me feel hesitant to come face to face with them, besides not wanting to make them afraid of such a thing was also a personal wound for me.

"I'll walk first! excuse me!" said the man while rushing towards the place of his comrades.

"Alright, we will follow" Sira told him.

...

"Is there something on your mind, miss?" ask Sira to come up to me.

"There is no hehe. I only doubt what kind of greeting I would say to them, you know I rarely meet with many people!" I said as I walked slowly towards the corner of the hallway in front of me.

"You don't have to lie miss, I know you're not good at doing that" Sira said as she walked quietly beside me.

"Knowledge yes.I'm just afraid Sira. I'm afraid that people will stay away from me" I said with a little down.

Just like before...

In a great hurry the man then took his leave to meet his comrades first, while I was still speechless with slightly trembling legs, after the man said goodbye to us Sira then walked up to me and asked about my problem, but I with a slight smile lied to her that I was just nervous about meeting the crowd, I didn't want to lie to her, I didn't want to lie to her, but I don't want to make him worry about such a small thing.

But, it seems that Sira herself is immune enough to my lies so that she can figure it out for not even a minute Sira already knows my lies and I can't argue with that, in the end I was just afraid to see those people's expressions and afraid they would stay away from me just like my past.

Well, my school life is quite a mess because people don't want to bother communicating with me, even with different problems, but I still feel the same, equally sad.

"You don't have to be afraid, miss, all you need to do is be yourself, they will eventually realize that you are very different from what they imagine" Sira told me.

"That's it..."

Following me walking from my left side Sira gave me a little advice that made me feel better, although it was rather sad that what Sira said was indeed true, indeed there was a point, I just need to be myself and prove that I'm not a demon like they see me.

"… Thank you Sira, emhh... ahh!! yahh. I have to be excited!" I said smiling while stretching my hand.
