Chapter 59.2

“My younger sister is further inside . I’ll explain the situation to the villagers, excuse me . ”

With those words, Laniceam-san leaves the house he brought me to .

For a moment, I think I’m being tricked into being locked up, but then I hear the delicate voice of a woman call out, “Onii-san?” from further inside . ”

“Sorry for troubling you . ”

I announce my presence and head further inside the house .

The inside of the house is the same as the outside, simple . The floor is exposed ground while the few bits of furniture are worn down and look like they will rot away at any moment . While there are no decorations, the windows do have shutters .

Immediately after entering the house, I’m in a combined living room kitchen . At the back is a single opening fitted with a board like door covered in gaps . When I knock on the door, a woman replies back with a weak and uneasy voice .

“Excuse my intrusion . ”

I gently open the door to avoid scaring the woman inside as much as possible and enter .

The plainness of the room is no different from the combined living room kitchen I first entered . The only difference is that a thin cloth has apologetically been laid over the bare ground . Other than that, there is an old looking drawer and two beds . Laying on one of the beds is a woman .

Her long black hair contrasts with her exceptionally pale skin . Her cheeks are a bit sunken in and her lips are dull . Her arms and legs are hidden by the thin futon, but I’m assuming they’re also unhealthily thin . While she appears to be in her mid-twenties, dragon tribesmen are long lived so I can’t really tell .

She, with her seemly weak constitution, anxiously stares at me from atop of her bed with eyes just black as her hair .

“Ah, nice to meet you, I am Ernea Isu from the human tribe . ”

I shouldn’t worry her any more than this . From the entrance of the room, I introduce myself .

“Ni- nice to meet you . ”

Regardless, she gives an uneasy reply .

Her reaction isn’t unreasonable . Any woman would be uneasy if an unknown man from the human tribe entered her room . If it happened to Mistral, she’d be swinging her blunt weapon, no questions ask .

“Nyaa ia Nymia, nya . ”
Nymia, with those words, springs off my head and lands on the woman’s chest .

The woman is surprised . She must have thought the animal on my head was a kitten only for it to talk . Moreover, it even went as far as to leap into her chest .

Well, Nymia is really cute . The woman immediately smiles and gently caresses her .

“Nyaa . ”

All right, good going Nymia . With this, she seems to have relaxed a bit .

“Eetto, will you tell me the reason you came here?”

At the woman’s question, I tell her of the exchange I had with the Decaying Dragon . I get the feeling she half doubted me at first, but once I mentioned her interactions with the dragon in the flower garden, she believed I was telling the truth .

The woman is silent once I finish speaking . Then, gradually, tears build up in her eyes before overflowing . She covers her face with both hands and cries, “Aaah . ”

I’m not sure what I can say, so I stay quiet .

The woman completely forgets I’m there as she weeps . Nymia nuzzles closer to her face and licks the back of her hands in worry . Gradually, she calms down .

“Forgive me, I lost my self . ”
“No, I’m sorry for becoming like this in the end . ”

Because of her tears, I too am crying .

The woman’s tears, the grief within them convinced me there was a certain sense of fondness between her and the Decaying Dragon .

“I’ve been so foolish . ”

Then, bit by bit, the woman tells me the truth .

Her name is Anemone .

Anemone-san has had a weak constitution since birth . She wouldn’t have been able to live a normal life without the care of her parents or older brother . Regardless, her affectionate older brother often took Anemone-san to a nearby flower garden so she could pass her time . It was then that she one day met a dragon . Although she was terrified at first, the dragon wasn’t hostile, and they gradually became friends .

Whenever Anemone-san went to the flower garden, the dragon would appear . Although they didn’t really do anything in the garden, their hearts gradually grew closer as they continued to spend time together . However, her older brother learned of the dragon and became afraid . He feared the dragon was targeting his precious little sister .

Anemone-san franticly pleaded with her brother, she told him that if the dragon wanted to kill her, he would have done so the moment they met . She told him the dragon was an important friend . Unfortunately, Anemone-san’s older brother didn’t pay her complaints any attention . Instead, he set off with the young men of the village to kill the dragon .

Then occurred the tragedy in the flower garden . There was nothing Anomene-san could do except watch . Anomene-san, with her own eyes, saw the dragon become mortally wounded . The shock of that scene seems to have left her asleep for the past few days .

To my shame, after hearing Anemone’s story, I am crying .

What a sad story .

If the dragon could talk like Nymia, if Anemone-san was healthy, or if Anemone-san’s older brother who guided us here listened to her more . It’s a tragedy of misfortune built upon misfortune . Even Nymia is crying .

“Thank you, for also crying . ”
“Nyaa, it’s sad, nyan . ”

Anemone-san gently wipes away the tears streaming down Nymia’s face .

“You as well, thank you for listening to my story . ”

I shake my head at Anemone-san’s fragile smile .

“Although that was a sad story, I think both of your hearts truly did connect as you thought about each other . ”

That’s what really makes this sad .

“I was entrusted with this by the dragon . ”

With those words, I bring attention to the important Dragon’s Gem in my hands . Then, while I wonder approaching is alright, Anemone-san holds out her hands . The act prompts me to move closer so I can hand her the Dragon’s Gem .

“This is the Dragon’s Gem I mentioned, it’s the crystallization of the dragon’s spirit and desires . ”

Anemone-san accepts the Dragon’s Gem . Shutting her eyes, she holds it to herself .

“Ahh, he’s conveying his affections . He is here . ”

Tears brim from Anemone-san’s closed eyes . They overflow and drop onto the Dragon’s Gem . Then, the seven, glittering, colors shine even brighter .

The Dragon’s Gem begins to seep into her chest . Anemone-san doesn’t resist . Instead, to my surprise, she’s accepting the Dragon’s Gem . Nymia is dazzled by the interaction between Anemone-san and the Dragon’s Gem .

Gradually, the Dragon’s Gem vanishes inside of Anemone-san .

“I feel that person’s vigorous vitality . ”

Anemone-san slowly opens her eyes .

I even more surprised . Anemone-san’s eyes were weak and feeble just moments ago . Now dwelling in them is a powerful force of life . Not just that, the unhealthy color of her skin carries a glossy springiness while her lips have been colored pink .

“Taken in the dragon’s life, nya . ”

Nymia is dazzled by Anemone-san .

Anemone-san herself is also astonished by the transformation . She first looks at her hands and then flings off the futon to examine her legs . Then, just like that, she gets up .

Incredible, so this is the true value of the Dragon’s Gem .
