I Was Reincarnated As A Dragon
Chapter 129: The Silent Night
"Hmm..huh!! is this chicken? but... it feels a bit lonely if you only eat alone... this is very nostalgic yes... mama, Yuuna how are you guys now? have you eaten too?" I said take the piece of meat in front of me.
"Yahh.. I wish they had eaten.. owoh!! is this burned with honey?! this is the best meat I've ever eaten!!" I still chewed on pieces of meat.
A little daydreaming while picking up a piece of meat on the table that sounded in my ear was just the sound of silence and there was not a single sound of people on the move except the small beats of the plate and table as I moved to take the food, the atmosphere like this really reminds me of my old life, my sister was very small and my mother always came home late at night or early in the morning because of overtime work and I had to eat alone if it was time for dinner.
And this time my lonely life seemed to repeat itself, there were no friends to talk to, no friends to eat with, no friends to eat with, thinking back about it I subconsciously spoke to myself as I gazed up at the dining room ceiling, I also became a little worried about my mother and sister because my mother was always late for dinner while my sister was too small to live such a life.
Even though I thought about it slowly with certainty still while staring up I bit and chewed on the piece of grilled meat that felt like chicken meat even the shape did look like chicken, and the taste really surprised me because it was so good more than the raw or grilled meat that I often eat in this world, because indeed I do not use any ingredients to polish it while burning with my fire.
"Yes!!! uh! finally full hehe. but, the food is still very much haah, my appetite is big, but my stomach is not supportive.. ugh! sucks!" I said while staring at the pile of food on the table.
"Yeah! time to get this leftovers done!" I said while tidying up the dishes and the leftovers.
.
.
Satisfied with eating a lot of dishes that my stomach is now fully filled and it feels very amazing, finished eating I then tidied up the dirty dishes and put them in the dishwasher in the kitchen, and then I finished eating, I also keep the leftovers in the kitchen cupboard.
Although actually I want to spend all the food because I do not have a refrigerator while my strength can no longer be used for careless things and also taste good, it is also good, but my stomach wasn't as big as it used to be and I had to put it away even though I was afraid it would go stale.
"Hm... is the night very late? I want to go for a walk" I said up from the kitchen.
.
.
"Sira!! I'm going! you want to come?!" I called out to Sira from under the stairs.
" ... "
"Um.. maybe he's asleep, yes you have to. I shouldn't bother him" I said as I slowly closed the door.
Since I could not sleep with my stomach too full I then intended to take a walk enjoying the night air while waiting for my stomach to get a little better, walking slowly towards the front door I then called out to Sira from under the second-floor staircase because she might want to come with me, but since there was no confirmation from him I decided to go alone anyway I didn't really want to take him because he looked so sleepy.
...***...
"Ughh! although accustomed to the cold it turns out the temperature at night is still very piercing" I said while rubbing my hands.
"Fuhh, even though I am an ice dragon, but it turns out that my body is still the same as other living things, ugh! it's cold!" I said blow my palms.
.
.
.
"Emhh!! outside here is not much cooler than in the labyrinth, yosh. I want to stop by Cryle.. hup.." I said as I jumped to fly.
Getting out of the house in my wall the cold temperature of the labyrinth was really felt in my skin even to the point that piercing into the bone gave me cold goosebumps while rubbing my upper arm, he said, being an ice dragon does not guarantee immunity to temperature changes especially when I am in my human form of course the cold wind will directly hit my skin.
Walking for quite a long time after coming out of my house I finally reached the front of the mouth of the cave and was greeted with a cold gust of the night wind that shook my body, I even narrowed my hands together and folded my wings forward like a mantle to block the gust of wind.
...***...
"It turns out the view at night is no less beautiful than the day hehe!" I started landing.
…
"Hup! still perfectly...where is he? is he sleeping too?"
Crusty krik krik krik…
"Sepi...if I become human... can I turn this atmosphere into a crowd? I want to have a lot of friends and also friends" I said slowly while embracing my legs while closing my wings forward.
Flying high in the night wind that shook my wings didn't take long for me to reach the lake where Cryle was, and without any vibrations I made my landing very smoothly, I landed near an apple tree before, but since there was no activity in this lake I was pretty sure that Cryle was also asleep.
Accompanied by the sounds of insects and birds echoing around me I sat under the apple tree embracing my legs and folded my wings forward while submerging my face between my knees, I wasn't as scared as I was when I first came out of the labyrinth.
Even so I felt something different while in this silence as if something was hollow inside me, and therefore I again dreamed of becoming human so that I could live a different life, but thinking about it made me realize the fact that I am now a monster and all I can do next is just be myself and find a lot of friends to share with.
"I hope my friend will be as many as the stars in the sky, no no no. After thinking about the stars more than living things" I said as I looked towards the sky full of stars. (◉_◉)
"Hm... the egg was supposed to hatch after three months..but, my body can grow like this within nine years, is this world also different for hatching eggs huh?" I said I accidentally stared at the dugout where Cryle's egg was.
"Forget it, I don't know much about the outside world yet, haah.but, this lake looks so beautiful because of the reflection of starlight…" I said as I slowly closed my eyes.
Sitting looking at the expanse of stars in the sky I then slightly wish I could get as many friends as those stars, but unfortunately as I recall the number of stars is far more than the number of humans and that means it is impossible, but that does not mean I am impossible to make friends because my sentence is only a parable.
Enough with the stars and my friends my eyes suddenly fixed on the former site of the Cryle tortoise that put the eggs there, and as I recall, my memory of having faded due to the difficult reincarnation life of a turtle egg should have hatched in about three to six months, but that's just my guess because I don't know if the laws of this world are different or not with my old world considering I've grown this big in just 9 years which should be 16 years.
And since I did not understand about the way this world worked I then slowly leaned back while gazing towards the sky and for a moment a sudden drowsiness came at me added with a gentle breeze without I realized my eyes were closing on their own.
"WAIT!!! I didn't come here to sleep outside!! I'd better take a walk" I shouted as I stood back up.
.
.
"I can't be off guard anymore! duh!! conscious Shea! don't be fooled by the pleasure of sleeping!" I said while patting my cheek.
"In addition, if you want to sleep also picky places, suck!"
"Yes!! what if there were beasts or monsters roaming around here? what if there's a pervert peeking in while I'm sleeping? nay! never will!! step over my body if you want to do that!!"
"Hoaah…! I'd better fly instead of getting sleepy in a place that's not necessarily safe" I said as I flew back in the air
Not a minute had closed my eyes then re-awakened while screaming indistinctly because almost lost with the comfort of a gentle breeze, and then re-awakened, I then got back up and took a walk on the edge of the lake while grumbling slowly to choose a place to sleep.
Although I used to be able to sleep wherever I wanted, it was because I was still dragon-bodied and feared by many monsters as well as other living things, but now it was very much different, sleeping in any place with the body of an adorable girl will definitely be the target of many depraved people even monsters will not be afraid to see me if I do not show a killing aura to them.
Still with drowsiness due to sedition from the night wind I then decided to fly back in the air so that I could reduce my drowsiness.
