From Another World

ten

We went out and checked out what was the cause of the loud roar deep in the forest. We headed out, running I notice the folks in the town were quite scared, we hurried to the forest. We tried to find where the roar came from. Another wave of roars hit us and we already knew where the thing that was causing the roar was.

When we were heading in the direction of where the roar came from Dazel mumbled something to herself out of the blue which I heard faintly “Hmm, sounds familiar, might be her.”

What does she mean might be her? Now I’m terrified because this might be someone that knows a demon lord, or a demon lord acknowledges. We were also a bit of close to the place where the roar was coming from.

We were close by and when we arrived we were shocked of what we saw, I already had one encounter of dragon attack in this world but this is nothing compared to Dazel, this dragon was huge! Three times bigger than Dazel’s dragon form… It was a grey dragon with a hint of white throughout its body, with large horns, a wider snout, whiskers and what seems to look like a Mohawk going down its neck.

“Big Sis!” Dazel shouted with an excited tone.

Is this what she meant of might be her? This is her Big Sis of hers? The hell she’s huge! But she then released another roar, only this time being up close, her roars don’t seem to be aggressive in any sort of way, instead she sounds like she needs help.

While the three of us were frozen in place, shocked of what is in front of us, Dazel sprinted towards the giant dragon, and then giant dragon noticed her running towards her and lowered its head.

“What are you doing here Big Sis?”

 “B-B-Bahamut?!” Sylvie shrieked in fear.

“Bahamut?” I confusingly asked her.

“I know for sure that dragon is the legendary Bahamut… The eldest of the six dragons.”

Hence the nickname given by Dazel… Big Sis…

“How are you so sure Sylvie?”

“I’ve read books about her, and this is too close a resemblance to be a coincidence.”

“What kind of dragon is Bahamut Sylvie?” I asked.

“While Dazel maybe the strongest, Bahamut on the other hand is the wiser, larger, and more terrifying out of all of them. She is also the Lord of the Northern Winds, giving her the powers of both wind and ice. She isn’t a demon lord like Dazel, because she is too pure to be tainted by the Demon King.”

“She’s a good dragon, right?”

“Yup, she is. But looking what we are in front of now, I doubt she’ll be nice here.”

While Sylvie and I were discussing about Bahamut, Dazel and her were already talking. After a while Dazel waved out to us telling us to come, we hesitated for a bit but I decided to lead the way.

“Shane!” Diana tried to stop me.

“What’s the worst that could happen? Let’s go, they’re waiting.”

We headed towards them, but I didn’t feel a bit of fear at all, it feels like I’m safe despite nearing two strong dragons. In addition, as we came near them Dazel looked so excited.

“Guys! This is Big Sis Bahamut!” She yelled in excitement, she looks so excited but why? Is it because she’s excited to introduce us to her Big Sis or is it something else?

The enormous dragon nodded while its eyes are closed, as if she seems pleased to meet us. I mean she is a good dragon right? I mustn’t doubt her too much.

Bahamut roared a little as she’s trying to say something… “Um, Dazel what is she saying?”  I asked.

“She’s saying that you should bow down before me, Dazel the great! Mwahahahaha!” She bursted out an evil laugh but suddenly Bahamut’s tail smacked Dazel in the back.

“Ow! What was that for?” She turned back to her and yelled. Bahamut pleaded for forgiveness for what Dazel is saying… She had a look on her face that she decided on something.

She surrounded herself with a series of wind gusts much like a tornado appeared around her covering her body, it became smaller and smaller to the size of a human. The wind gusts covering her dispersed and inside was a beautiful girl, white long hair, gem-like eyes, luscious lips and a bit taller than Dazel…

“Oh, that was exhausting isn’t it? I haven’t transformed into this form for decades.” Bahamut said and she had a faint French accent.

“Ohhh Big Sis! It’s been a while since I saw you like this!” Dazel said.

Does every dragon transform into a beautiful girl in this world? I hope so, that would make meeting the other four dragons a bit more interesting…

“You know, it’s quite power consuming to maintain this form that’s why I don’t transform into this much more often.”

“But it’s rare for you to be here Big Sis!”

“Like I said earlier, I came to check up on you.” She then looked towards us and quickly walked towards us.

She suddenly held both my hands and said “Are you the one who survived Dazel’s Never Dazzle Again?”

“Um, y-yeah. I guess.” I shyly said.

“Is this for real?” She then turned towards Dazel and glared at her.

“Kinda…”

“Dazel.” Bahamut said in an angry tone glaring at Dazel.

“I putted the spell on him, he was unconscious for three days and we woke up. That’s that Big Sis.”

He turned back to me, I’m confused on what’s going on here.

“I deeply apologize for what troubles Dazel has caused you, and thank you for taking care of her while she’s here, I got worried and came to check on her, she didn’t tell me she would stay at the side at a human for quite a while.”

“No, no, it’s our pleasure.”

“Ours?” Diana added.

“Yeah, I didn’t remember agreeing to taking care of her Shane, you said you would take care of her all by yourself…” Sylvie also added.

“Well, either way thank you Shane… I hope you can take care of Dazel.”

“Yeah, I guess. I’ll do everything to reach your expectations Ms. Bahamut.”

“Well then, this form is tiring. Got to change back or I’ll faint in the middle of the forest.”

“W-Wait!”

“Hmm? What is it Shane?”

“Why were you sending out waves of roars from here?”

“Oh that? I stepped on a tree and got a splinter, the moment you arrived I already got it out, see?” She pointed out to a tree which had sharp edges.

“Isn’t dragon skin impenetrable?” Sylvie asked her.

“Well you see, due to old age Bahamut’s scales are becoming numb-” Before Dazel can finish her sentence Bahamut slapped the hell out of her.

“Ow! What was that for Big Sis?! That hurt!”

“That wouldn’t had hurt if you didn’t had such a big mouth, young lady.”

“I’m sorry Big Sis…”

“Now that’s everything’s settled, Dazel is doing okay and I better get back, the others may be worrying about me. Farewell Dazel, and farewell Shane hope you take care of her.” She surrounded herself with gusts of wind transforming back to her dragon form. She took flight and waved goodbye… Dazel and I waved back at her as we stare at her until she was out of sight.

I didn’t know what happened recently but I just met another dragon, the eldest of them all…

“I met two dragons in a day, I don’t believe it.” Sylvie said and then collapsed to the ground.

Diana came near Sylvie and comforted her “I know what you mean girl, it’s unbelievable…”

They look surprised more than I do, I don’t blame them, who wouldn’t be surprised after meeting dragon after another?

Both of them were still shocked and Dazel was admiring the butterflies near the lake. What’ll happen next? Will Dazel be registered into the guild? Will news come out that Dazel is a demon lord and a dragon? I never know… I sat down on the ground near the lake watching Dazel…

What will happen now? All these turn of events are too crazy for me to comprehend… I hope nothing bizarre happens next.
