Chapter 1: Fate
I'm from the Phoenix Clan.
I just want to say so much about my introduction.
Because I'm now in the middle of their palace by a huge dragon king, I have to show me a scroll of prophecy!
The scroll records the background of this era, what kind of foreign race holds the stars, what gods who control fate, what kind of emperor plays with power, these are all common sense to me. I'm not a time-traveler, I'm a native of the times. So I quickly flipped through the reels to find what really matters later.
"Huang Ji, the daughter of the Dragon King, will suffer misfortune in ten years. And the only solution is to find a boy from the Phoenix Clan. ”
It was a prophecy from the Dragon Valkyrie, a fate that had been predestined for a long time.
"But that doesn't mean that the boy is me!" I asked, looking up, the scroll sinking in the same direction, to the dragon king who was crawling in front of me.
I said I was prostrate, but it wasn't, because the dragon king's size was so huge that he was just looking down at me. From the pair of eyes covered with light blue dragon scales, he could see the majesty and domineering of the high position, and the trace of pleading and loneliness when he looked directly at me.
The dragon king's nose spewed out a white cold air, and his mouth slowly opened, making a deep and awe-inspiring voice: "You, look down." ”
I was forced to lift the scroll again and continue to look down.
"He will run away from home in seven years and wander into the world because of family matters. Because he swallowed the ice soul by mistake, he couldn't condense the power of the phoenix, and he couldn't endure the slightest heat, so he would come to this extremely cold place to accept the encounter of fate. ”
The Dragon King spoke again, "This prophecy was made seven years ago. And now, it has come true!"
I frowned at the scroll, confirming the prophecy over and over again, and my expression became more and more complicated. Because every article recorded above is undoubtedly directed at oneself.
Eventually, however, I rolled the scroll up again and stepped forward and handed it to a maid with dragon horns in front of the Dragon King.
When the maid withdrew from view, I shook my head, looked up and said apologetically, "I'm sorry for the Dragon King, I'm a materialist, and I don't believe in fate very much. Although this prophecy seems to be directed at me everywhere, I really don't agree with this mysterious and mysterious thing. ”
A chill suddenly flashed in the Dragon King's eyes, making the already misty place even more desolate.
"Are you doubting the authenticity of this prophecy? This is a prophecy made for me by the Dragon Warrior God himself, he ......" The Dragon King's voice trembled more and more, showing that he was suppressing the anger in his heart at this time. But thinking that it was useless to tell me this, he stopped explaining and continued to me in a tough manner: "I don't care if you believe it or not, I only care about my daughter's future!"
While he was talking, three girls walked out of the compartment behind the dragon king. Like the maidens who had left before, they appeared in human form, but they still retained the dragon horns on their foreheads in dragon form. They are the daughters of the Dragon King, also known as the Dragon Lady.
A dragon girl in a long green dress jumped up to the dragon king's side, and said coquettishly without scruples: "Daddy, daddy, what are you calling us out for?" Her voice was sweet and lovely, which made this huge cold palace a little more warm, and the dragon king's eyes also flashed with a trace of tenderness.
I saw that a huge mist suddenly emanated from the dragon king's body, blocking all my vision. In the mist, I could vaguely see that the huge body was gradually shrinking, and finally turned into a shadow about the size of myself.
The fog had lifted, and the dragon king had turned into a human form. It was a tall man with silver-white hair, and he looked quite temperamental. There is no decay that an old man should have, and he is a spiritual guy.
At this time, the dragon king had already reined in all the momentum just now, in exchange for the softness that a father should have. He touched the hair of the green-clothed dragon girl beside him dotingly, then looked at me with a smile and said politely: "Let me introduce myself first, my name is Long Ao, one of the four dragon kings of the earth realm, in charge of this extremely cold place. And this little guy next to me is my second daughter, called Midorihime. ”
Midorihime shook her head happily, allowing her little head to have more contact with her father's hands, which made the dragon king's palms full of love, which made his heart warm and happy.
At this time, a fierce dragon girl in red armor next to her walked to the side of the dragon king, and opened her mouth in a rough voice: "Father, what is the matter with calling us here? I'll leave first if it's okay!"
The Dragon King introduced with some embarrassment: "This is the eldest daughter, Hongji. After speaking, he turned his head and glared at Hongji, and said, "Eh, my father called you to come, and you just came." Today's protagonist is your third sister, Huang ...... Oh no, it's Gray Hime. ”
As I spoke, my gaze unconsciously moved to the little girl who had been silent in the corner beside the Dragon King. She is still young, and she is estimated to be only in her teens, and there is still a little baby fat on her face, which looks very well-behaved and cute. But her whole person is grizzled, and the name Gray Ji really fits her current appearance.
The Dragon King gently pushed Midorihime away from his side, and then slowly walked over to Grey Hime's side, trying not to alarm her. As he approached slowly, he said to me, "Her original name was Huang Ji, but I don't know why, she always made herself dirty, so I asked me to change her name to Gray Ji." ”
Hearing this experience, I snorted and laughed, how could anyone name this.
But it's okay for me to laugh, but the key is that it's in the Dragon Palace. The Supreme Dragon King was in front of me at this time, and when he heard my laughter, his eyes suddenly burst out with murderous intent.
I was sloppy, this is the Dragon Clan, not our Phoenix Clan. The Huang clan pays attention to a casual nature, but it still pays attention to the sense of ritual here. As an outsider who has wandered here, I am so unruly and unruly regardless of the occasion, I am definitely going to be overturned by the Dragon King!
"What are you laughing at!"
Just as I was about to accept the lesson of the Dragon King, a questioning voice, with a soft feeling, actually came from the mouth of Gray Hime.
Ash Ji crossed her hands on her hips and looked at me angrily, but I couldn't be scared at all.
She walked slowly up to me, pouted, and snorted heavily.
Ahh
The whole world seemed to be frozen, and even the majesty of the dragon king was wiped out because of the cold snort of the youngest daughter.
I quickly waved my hand and explained, "No, it's fine. It just occurred to me that I ...... Something interesting. ”
Unexpectedly, this piqued Gray Hime's interest instead. She raised her short, cute arm, pointed her index finger at me, and asked, "What's the funny thing?"
What's interesting? Isn't your name Gray Hime? Why don't you call it Tank?
Of course, I can't say that, and the Dragon King won't give us a chance. Now it's a very serious matter, a matter of the future, a matter of fate.
According to the prophecy, this lovely girl in front of her will suffer misfortune in three years...... To say that it is unfortunate is just a euphemism, and according to my understanding, it should be death.
The Dragon King coughed dryly, interrupting our interaction. He raised his voice again, and said in that slightly majestic voice, "Well, you have seen my little daughter, and she is the poor fellow who is about to befall in the prophecy. The dragon king's eyes showed a little sadness, and he picked up his little daughter and returned to his throne.
"Gray Hime, this person will be your nobleman, please introduce yourself to him. The dragon king put Gray Ji on his lap, pinching her dirty little face for a while, and carrying her little hands up and down for a while. Ever since this Grey Queen appeared, I could feel that the Dragon King was always alone in her eyes.
Hearing his father's suggestion, Gray Ji also spoke: "Hello big brother, my name is Gray Hime, I am very capable, you can take me away." ”
"Eh, what's the best way to do it?" I don't know if I'm too sensitive, so I started driving unconsciously.
Ash Hime replied simply, "I can do laundry and cook, I will tidy up the room, and I will take care of the flowers and plants...... Well, I'm just very capable, I can do anything!", Gray Hime became more excited as she spoke.
Feeling that the topic was gradually drifting away, the Dragon King also intervened: "Well, this, Gray Hime's hands-on ability is still relatively strong, but this is not enough to convince you." Suffice it to say that she won't be a burden to you, she has dragon blood after all and is able to use dragon power. As long as you treat her well and help her lift the shackles of fate, it's easy to say anything. ”
"Yes, I can transform into a dragon, you can ride me if you want to hurry!" Grey Queen shouted again.
For a while, everyone fell into ...... Hitstun.
The Dragon King touched his nose in embarrassment: "Okay, okay, all in all, you just need to take her on a tour of the mountains and rivers, read the world, don't plot against her, and bring her back safe and sound in the year of her death." I don't want anything, I just want her to be safe. The dragon king's voice was gradually mixed with a faint sadness. She took Grey in her arms, keeping her from seeing the tears that were about to slip from the corners of her eyes.
Gray Ji couldn't see it, but she could feel it. She wanted to turn around and wipe the tears from the corners of her father's eyes, but considering that her hands were too dirty, she could only bury her head in her father's arms and cry with him. However, Midorihime inadvertently showed a look of disdain, and turned her back with her hands folded.
"Hey, have you decided? If you've decided, just reply and don't be sluggish!" Won't I just give them some sentimental time, what to urge!
But then again, I swallowed the ice soul by mistake, and I couldn't leave this extremely cold place at all, so how could I take her to see the world? Although I have the heart to take this dragon sister who fell from the sky, but its strength does not allow it!
While I was hesitating, the Dragon King said again, "Forget it, I don't force it, I also know that this kind of suddenly imposed mission is difficult for people to accept. I'll give you three days, if you agree, come to this Dragon Palace to find me, if you don't agree, then I have to find another high. ”
After speaking, under the white eyes of the red hime, the ignorance of the green hime, and the expectation of the gray hime, I was left alone in this huge dragon palace.
The dragon palace, which was propped up by cold icicles and inlaid with various crystal carvings on the walls, was illuminated by the faint light that came in at the exit. The whole palace looks extraordinarily atmospheric, even if the dragon king leaves, it shows the spirit of the king.
I also retreated, went back the way I came, back to a small igloo outside, and thought about my own life.
