Mushoku Tensei – Old Dragon’s Tale

To tell the truth, until then, the dragon kingdom had no custom of festivals.

The feeling of being alive for a long time or celebrating something in large numbers was rare.

Except at this time.

The entire dragon kingdom was in festive condition.

Naturally, the dragon god that everyone worships and the son of everyone's beloved Lunaria are finally born.

Shillard hung the decree, and a parade took place in Long Ming Mountain.

Maxwell circled all over the dragon kingdom and collected the meat of the dragon.

A daily treat was also given to the tuning dragon that was at Dora's place.

Chaos created 'fireworks', the product of people's worlds, to boost the parade.

From all over the dragon kingdom, people gathered to see the Son of the Dragon God at a glance.

That's not a day or two, either.

The festival lasted ten or twenty years.

The Dragons live a long life, so the joy lasts a long time.

I guess I kept the festival going for about a hundred years.

Everyone seemed happy.

Only then did I see that floating dragon kingdom.

The Dragon God and I were only a little late to attend that festival.

I was at the gods' meeting.

Nevertheless, of course, when the Dragon God returned, the people welcomed him with a voice of joy.

All of a sudden, it didn't make sense to me, but it seemed that Dragon God knew immediately what had happened.

Dragon God went back to my house without waving his side.

Of course, I'm with you.

When I got home, my family welcomed me.

"Welcome back, sir, and Laplace"

Master Lunaria and his servants.

And he's a ball-like child held by Master Lunaria.

"Sir, I was born"

"Sounds like it."

The Dragon God also seemed a little confused because of his own child.

He looked difficult because he wasn't much of a laugher.

But how happy I am, I kind of passed it on.

"Please, please hold me"

"... oh"

The Dragon God received his son from Lunaria.

It wasn't a clueless gesture, but he was shaking a little.

"That's a strange thing. Everyone in the dragon kingdom thought it was like my son, but it feels a little special"

"Ugh. Sir, give that child a name"

The Dragon God saw in his words, seriously, the Lunarian.

"Me?

"Yes."

I felt kind of nostalgic watching it.

Yes, even when I was picked up, there was this exchange...

"You did, um..."

But the dragon god was there, and he stopped moving.

Reflections are rare for dragon gods who give immediate answers.

"What is it...?

I can't think of anything.

"No, you can't. The name of the child is determined by the husband."

"I know. But I can't right now. Let's think about it."

"Yes."

Your son's name was not determined as soon as he was born.

Dragon god does not mean indecision.

Rather, you are the motto of summary immediacy.

However, it would still be different to give a name to a being like me and a being that can be described as your own.

I've been having a lot of trouble ever since.

Sometimes they asked me for my opinion.

Of course, I couldn't get a loco response.

I'm terrified, I'm very sorry, but I can't give you an opinion.

Wouldn't you have a choice?

Because he's the son of a dragon god.

If, assuming, in case, my name comes to mind......

Thinking about it, I still get too scared and my head turns white.

Well, let's leave that for now.

For a while the Dragon God held the baby and then returned it to Master Lunaria.

When Lord Lunaria received your son, he came to me watching him in the corner of the room.

"Laplace, you hold this girl, too"

Looking at the troubled dragon god, Master Lunaria said that.

I was surprised.

I was wondering if I could do such a terrible thing.

"... me? Are you sure?

"Of course, for you, it hits my brother."

For once, I'm supposed to be an adopted child, so formally, I certainly would be.

Nevertheless, I was meant to be.

I am not the son of a dragon god.

I didn't think of myself as a pet anymore, but I was going to lose my share.

If you forget the gratitude you've ever made me happy and behave like a bystander, I will kill you.

However, Master Lunaria asked me to hold him.

He told me he was going to hit my brother.

I had to be stubborn and accommodating enough to say no to this.

"Yes, sir"

I held your son with my own arms.

Body temperature was also quite high compared to other Dragon tribes. No, is that because I was a baby?

I took a serious look, anxiously wondering if your son would feel uncomfortable.

The baby looked a lot like Dragon God.

Silver hair that resembled Dragon God, a stern face that resembled Dragon God, and the color of the scales resembled Dragon God, but because it was a half with the people, the number of scales was not as high as the other Dragons.

There was little scaling, especially in prominent places such as faces.

Looking back now, it might have been a little bit similar to me, which is also a mixed race, and the way I scaled.

No, disrespect is a good place, such as my resemblance to your son...

When I held your son, I got a sense of nature and respect.

This one will surely stand bearing the dragon kingdom of the future.

My role must be in the power of this one, who must be protected.

That's how I felt.

■

Then came the men of the Five Dragons one after another.

Shillard, Maxwell, Chaos, and Lady Dora too.

Everyone saw your son and was thrilled.

And by the time I left, everyone had a tight face.

Perhaps they felt the same way about me.

It's not just General Wu Long.

The gods of other worlds have also come.

Usually no other gods show up in other worlds.

But that day was different.

The god of man, the god of demons, the god of heaven, the god of sea, the god of beasts, came and blessed each one.

That was spectacular.

That's right, because the gods of other worlds, who rarely show up, blessed your son's birth.

Exactly the way it showed its prestige.

Everyone in the people of the dragon kingdom would have recognized that this birth is truly a wonderful thing.

And by the end of the festival.

When the whole dragon world floated away.

Here she comes.

A demonic woman with black purple skin and white hair.

It's the Demon Emperor Kyrisis Kalisis.

"Lunaria. Congratulations"

"Crisis! I was wondering if you could come"

As I told you before, Crisis is close to Master Lunaria.

When Master Lunaria admitted to her appearance, she lowered her face.

I'm not really familiar with how intimate the two of you are.

Back then, I used to be away from home a lot.

But, oh well, I guess we were close enough to laugh.

"If you give birth, I'll rush."

"It was too late for that."

"Research is going well here. Let's go to you. I was going to go, but when things are going well, you're going to try to do the next one, right?

"Was it going so well?

"Oh. I guess dragon researchers are good at looking at things in detail. At first, I thought they were trolls, but when one thing turns out, I let them figure out all sorts of things at once from the accumulated knowledge. That's refreshing."

"I heard that researchers in the demonic world are also excellent?

"Farhahahahahaha! Lunaria don't be funny! The Demons are full of assholes! There's no way there's a good researcher or anything like that in an asshole!

Crisis was a woman who laughed a lot.

No, everyone laughed a lot, not just at Crisis, but at the Demon Nation, who also gave his name to the Demon King.

Crisis grinned, his eyes turned to the son Lunaria was holding.

"Which, can you show me the baby? I will see how wise the great dragon god and my best friend, the son of Lunaria, are."

"Ugh, yes, go ahead"

"Oh, this is amazing! You're so smart! That's the prince of the Dragons. I feel incredibly smart! You'll see how smarter and smarter I get while I'm watching! You're a wise man in the future!

Sounds like a fool to me, but I praised him for being a Christian.

Crisis was smart among the demons, and full of kindness, but how could he not be better at his mouth?

"Will this kid be that smart?

"Oh, there's no madness in my eyes. Everybody's an asshole, like my son. He's always been an asshole. This kid is nothing like that!

"Ugh, is that right"

Huh?

Crisis is the wife of a demon god, and you think I can say bad things about my son?

Isn't that disrespectful of the devil's son?

Hmm. Indeed, it is terrifying to speak ill of the Son of God, no matter how much Crisis was the wife of the demon god and in a cheerful relationship.

But the truth is, 'retarded and luxurious' wasn't a bad thing for the Demons.

A retarded and luxurious person is a good person who doesn't betray people.

That's about what they said.

Of course, it's not bad to be smart and delicate.

It's good to be smart, it's good to be bad. In the demonic world.

So Crisis hasn't said a word about it.

I just wanted to say that I'm going to be a little different and brilliant from my own son.

A little difference in values.

"Well, Lunaria! I'll be back! I don't know how long I'll be here, but as long as I'm here, I'll keep that kid looking forward to growing up!

"Yes, please stay again"

"Of course they're coming! Then it's Sarabah! Farhahahahahaha!"

Crisis went home laughing.

It was extravagant.

■

That's how he was born.

Blessed were all.

I was loved.

That's why I...

No, we'll talk about this later.

If we don't talk about it in turn, we'll be confused.

Together, the dragon kingdom was full of happiness.

The demon world and I were improving our relationship well.

With the rest of the world, there were no signs of contention.

Even the study of demons and metastases was dramatically advanced thanks to Crisis calicis.

It was a peaceful time.

Until that day.

Yes, peaceful times closed the curtain abruptly one day.

Yes, that day.

It's a nightmarish day.

I remember clarity.

I was out that day, with the Dragon God, to the demonic world.

He listened to the meeting as usual and then discussed the future while being guided through the demonic realm by Necross Lacrosse.

The story is about further talent exchanges and the transition magic team that is being completed.

Once the metastatic magic formation is complete, we will also know the cause of the metastatic incident… whether or not, it will also be possible to create a system that will allow at least those people who have metastasized to other worlds to easily return to their original worlds.

Even if it wasn't fundamental, I could say that a major problem would be cleared up.

I could see the light.

When I reported that to Dragon God, that woman who didn't smile very much gave me a reassuring grin and praised me like this.

"Well done, LaPlath. Without you, it would have taken longer for this to happen. The boulder is my son."

I was also in the mood to rise to heaven.

My standing behavior at that time would have been truly full of confidence.

He proudly stretched his chest, spread his wings wide, and just said I was the Five Dragons General.

But oh......

I got knocked down.

With the dragon god, I returned to the dragon kingdom.

I went back to my house to report this incident to Master Lunaria.

It's a nostalgic home.

Hehe, at the time, I didn't feel like a resident anymore.

I meant to be a part of this house.

That's why I said "I'm home".

Oh, but...

Oh......

I still dream about that sight.

I dream every time I sleep.

Yes, I said it. Just now.

But I didn't hear back from inside.

I heard a voice instead of a reply.

It's the crying voice of the baby.

Loud enough to be called a scream.

Normally, I had no doubt about that voice.

A baby is a crying thing.

I cried a lot with your son.

But I had a heartbeat then.

I felt different from the usual cries.

I rushed to Master Lunaria's room... I saw.

Bloody room.

Numerous bodies.

A place of tragedy.

At the deepest end of the scene like that, there was something rolling that I hardly wanted to see.

Master Lunaria.

Master Lunaria was bleeding to death.

He was dead in the center of the room, rounding his body.

The baby was crying with a large grain of tears, protected by Master Lunaria.
