I am currently walking inside the cavern that leads to the dragon’s nest. As expected there are no monsters attacking me inside the cavern. Rather than that, the two Sword Lizards that I tamed before is waiting for me midway inside the cavern like a servant greeting their master who just get back home. They even bow their head after finding my figure…… their intelligence seems to be unexpectedly high.

When I enters Yuisia’s nest, I found Yuisia in her dragon form that is looking after the laying down Riona who still have a pair of wings growing from her back.

She seems to detect my presence as she slowly opens her eyes. And then she rises up her body and look at the wings that is growing in her back…… even after looking at the unusualness in her body, she still firmly hold out her smile.

Even though her expression shows that she is about to cry anytime now.

“Hiro-chan…… I got wings growing in my back. I can’t go back to where everyone is now that I have these right……?”

“…… There’s no such thing as that. Let’s be together from now on forever okay. With your mommy, and daddy……”

“No…… I can’t. After all, I am not mommy and daddy real daughter after all……”

“Wha……!?”

Until now, she never shows any sign of it. ---- but I think that is just me belittling her too much. No matter how she is still a kid like that, there’s no way she doesn’t realize the thing that is happening to her own body. Even in case for Sarasa-san, no matter how much she tries to hide it, by living together under one roof, Riona should have many chances to have a glimpse on her ears.

“Daddy is only someone who saved mommy a long time ago…… and my mommy is someone who saved me. She picked me up when I was thrown away in front of the church. And then…… she always…… until now……”

“……Riona…… So, you know everything……?”

She knows that her parents are not her true parents. And even when she is aware with that fact, she still acts like any other innocent child, I just can’t imagine how she feel all this time.

She always follows me from behind anywhere while calling me Hiro-chan, Hiro-chan. She usually seems simple minded and would show her spoiled side from times to times…… Her cheerfulness is just too bright to my eyes.

She is just look to similar to Hina from my previous live. Once, I heard that the meaning of Hina’s name is also a form of prayer that wishes for her to grow up into a bright cheerful girl like the sun.

---- But it is not like that in reality. Riona is…… just trying her hardest to look cheerful.

Like trying to hide the tears that are welling up in her eyes, she turns her back at me. But even so, I can still see that her trembling small back.

“I am not their real daughter so I can’t forever stay with them right……? Moreover having these wings growing from my back like this…… I definitely can’t go back to where my mommy is……”

“There’s no such thing as that…… If Riona doesn’t come back then your mother will definitely feel lonely. That’s why, let’s go back together. If it is about those wings then let me do something about it……!”

When Riona turns her face back at me again, she already couldn’t hold her tears back as it is already spilling nonstop in her cheek.

She just could keep up her smile any longer. There’s just no way she can keep her smile now.

“How can I do that?…… Mommy will be troubled so I won’t go back. Because I…… I am a monster after all……”

“You are not a monster…… Aren’t you still having a human’s heart? And your appearance also doesn’t differ much with a human. If you are not a human then what are you?”

I hug Riona tightly, rubs her back, and talk to her in the kindest tone that I could. If I can’t persuade her now, she would never return back home…… and I definitely won’t allow that.

“Hiro-chan…… Please stop…… If you are together with me, Hiro-chan would only get more trouble……”
