Curse of Whitering Wings
Meeting with Orphen, accepting Lyla as a gift from him, learning the magic of human transformation After so many things happened, the dawn had arrived before I realized it.
When many of the demon king Castle should've been going to sleep, normally I should've been sleeping around this time too but, I decided to take care of Lyla's Withering WIng first.
The problem was that Lyla had no wings in her human form, thus Liliana had no idea which part she had to heal.
Thus, we went to the training ground to cancel her human transformation.
The training ground was used for the training of the beastfolk warriors around this time. There was no figure of the demon race or the night elf around.
Uhm, A-Are you Really sure about this?
Asked Lyla timidly while she patted her neck.
It's too dangerous. We have no idea what she's up to.
There was opposition from my troops in regard to allowing Lyla to return to her original form. It was no longer the problem of her being handed over to me just a while ago, the act of me, who killed her father, that allowed her to transform back to her dragon form was judged as a reckless act.
I understand your worry. But, Lyla is a sensible girl. Even if she's not, I trust her.
I allowed her to transform even after knowing the danger.
I didn't say it out loud but, even if Lyla decided to attack me, the current me had no problem in defeating her. The reason why the opposition backed down quickly was simply because I had a track record of single-handedly slaying Faravugi.
But still, just to be sure, my private army armed themselves to a T, led by Verossa and standing by on the training ground. Especially Verossa, he already entered his sword saint mode, hand on the hilt of his sword, watching every single move of Lyla, ready to cut her neck the moment she made suspicious movement.
Lyla who received such coercion Ended up becoming even more scared.
U-Uhm
Don't mind them, Lyla. We should treat your wings immediately.
Y-Yes
Lyla nodded at me and then started to take off her one-piece.
Oops, I averted my gaze as a result.
It seems I managed to catch a glimpse Of her naked, almost transparent white skin.
Her body and magical power then swelled up.
Then, the figure of a dragon with beautiful, silvery scales that reflected the sunlight appeared on the training ground. I heard the sound of exclamation from the training ground.
Strong.
Her magical power was still far below Faravugi but still If we consider her age, and the fact that she's still a child by dragon race standard, she was brimming with potential. Her frame was on a smaller side alas, she would only grow bigger from now on.
Uhm, Lyla was standing on her rear leg while swinging her tail like that of a cat. The pair of wings on her back were twisted into an ugly shape. Yes, just like Faravugi's wings from back then
Can I climb on your back?
P-Please do so! My back is narrow though!
Lyla lowered her posture immediately. What does she mean by narrow back? Was that some sort of humiliation Among the dragon race?
I felt reassured since she didnt seem to think about running away or rampaging around, on the other hand, I heaved a dejected sigh since the dark dragon had completely crushed her rebellious spirit.
If she bites me when I let my guard down, she will surely become an overnight celebrity in the demon kingdom.
Let's go, Liliana.
Woof!
I set aside my complicated feelings and carried Liliana on Lyla's back.
I knew at a glance that the black and murky magical power of darkness was twisting around her wings like a chain And embedded within.
Can you take care of this?
Woof!
Liliana tapped the root of Lyla's wings with her short limb, or elbow to be exact.
They poured vast amounts of magical power of light in one go and smashed the powerful curse that took a root in Lyla's wings to pieces in one go.
Her withered wings Restored in no time!
Waa!
Lyla turned her head and looked at her restored wings with gleaming eyes.
Amazing!
Lyla flapped her wings lightly, clearly pleased from the bottom of her heart with the way she frolicked on her own. Both Liliana and I nodded happily upon seeing her regain a bit of her happiness.
That's just How much this kind of curse had been torturing Faravugi.
Things might have ended up in a different notion had we met under the right conditions
E-Excuse me Can I Try to fly a little bit?
No problem, feel free to try it out.
I replied nonchalantly as I went down from Lyla's back. Lyla was startled for a moment, maybe she hadn't expected for me to give the permission so easily.
Thank you very much! Let's see First I do this and
Lyla pondered as she stood on her four legs, and started moving her wings.
Are you sure about this? She might use this chance to escape.
Sofia whispered to me while I was watching Lyla while folding my arms.
She won't do that.
I shrugged my shoulders as I gave such an answer.
Ever since the assault tactic used by the alliance The air patrol around the demon kingdom had been strengthened by the dragon race.
Even now, I could see a squad of dragons flying high in the sky. The dragon had surprisingly sharp eyesight, they would dive in as soon as they saw Lyla make any suspicious movement and then unleash their breath attack.
How could Lyla escape under such a situation? And Lyla as the dragon race herself understood the best just how difficult it was to escape from the demon kingdom.
H-Here I goooo!!!
Not to mention that the person herself was too occupied with flapping her revived wings to think about escaping.
She flapped her wings vigorously as she ran along the training ground.
Does a dragon have to run like that to fly?
W-Well They do not seem to need it
The dragon took off and landed simply by kicking the ground lightly as they flapped their wings, in short, they could take off right from the place they stood alas
Ei!
Lyla jumped in the air and spread her wings.
Oooh She managed to glide properly! I see, they start by gliding!
E-Eh, ah!?
But, when Lyla flapped her wings, she fell straight to the ground. From what I see, she got pushed down by the wind when she should've pushed down the wind with her wings.
And just like that, Lyla dropped along the training ground, raising clouds of dust in her wake. She didn't stop until her head crashed against the foundation rock of the demon king's castle.
It seems to be quite a crash since the ground shook due to their collision.
The birds perched on the wall of the demon king's castle got startled and jumped out immediately.
LYLA! ARE YOU OKAY!?
Though I was left dumbfounded for a moment, I snapped back immediately and rushed to her.
She didn't even twitch. Did that crash kill her!?
Uuuh Wooo
And when I was wondering about such a thing, Lyla's head stuck out from the rubble and cloud of dust.
She had a nosebleed.
Tears were gathering in her eyes, it seems the crash hurt her nose so much. And as if time turned back, her body started to shrink and returned to her human form.
Was it because of the pain? The embarrassment? Or pitiful? Lyla just sat in her place as she started to cry.
Oh meo~w!
Garounya rushed quickly, bringing the one piece in her hand. I took over Lyla's wound. Let's see, her nose waOuch
Uuuh Sowwy!
Can't be helped, it's been a really long time for you after all. Let's do our best after this, alright?
HIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
I wiped her nose with a handkerchief and draped the one piece I got from Garounya to cover her body.
I turned around and shrugged my shoulders at Sofia. Standing beside her was Verossa who let go of his hand from the hilt of his sword with a look of pity on his face.
The goal seems to be so far away
Sofia heaved a sigh as she spoke, seemingly giving up on looking for an immediate result.
