Chapter 86: Sizzle, Pop, Blush! (III)
"A Divine? Divine, you say?!" I never seen a Divine race before or what they even look like.
"Wait, are you saying you are a Divine race too?"
"Yes." Elcro nodded and smiled. The word Divine truly fit this person's persona. No matter how you look at him, he seems to have a halo effect around him. He was like a living, breathing angel that came down from heaven. All he needed was a pair of wings, and it would be complete.
"I'm sorry that you have not found her, is there anything I can do to help?"
Elcro nodded. "Yes, there actually is." He came over and gave me the most gentle hug I ever felt.
"I have finally found you, Myrin Drakel."
"Hah?" I exclaimed in complete disbelief.
"Sir, I think you got the wrong person." I tried my best to push myself away from his bear trap arm. For someone so thin, his strength was surprisingly monstrous.
"My name is Berry Drakel. Not Myrin. Please don't go around switching people's names like there is some kind of candy! And I would appreciate it if you let me go."
"I finally found you." Elcro voice was like a whisper that was close to the brink of happiness and sadness mixing into one. He snuggled his head into my hair and pulled me in closer.
This was indeed an awkward situation. I didn't know this man, but he took me for someone else.
Was it possible that I was this Myrin person or whoever? That can't be right; my status window states my name as Berry Drakel, not Myrin Drakel, that he was looking for, though Myrin has a more elegant name than Berry. Who cares about names right now. I struggled to get out of his grasp.
"Hey! Are you listening? I'm not Myrin!"
"Yes, you are. You have had the birthmark behind your ears since you were young, and even to this day, you still have it."
"I do?" I couldn't believe what he was saying. I never once saw this so-called mark behind my ears, but if you really think about it, I wouldn't be able to view it.
Elcro pushed me in front of him, finally letting me go. "Such a birthmark does not disappear, especially of the Drakel bloodline."
"Drakel bloodline? D-d-do, you know what I am?" My voice squeaked.
"Only a Drakel bloodline can turn into a dragon."
I hiccuped. He said the D-word. There should be no one who knew what I was, but this man in front of me knew what I was in second because of my last name. Wait, now I'm confused. The longest that I have ever been in Torren's world was about two and a half years. So it shouldn't even be possible to be born in this world at all. I'm originally a resident from Earth.
"I really think you got the wrong person."
"No. I am 100% sure you are Myrin. Now that I look closely at your energy wavelength, you have the same energy from the last time I saw you. I do not forget, even though I have lived for so long." He replied with a grin.
"Okay, let's say I am this Myrin person. What's your relationship with me? Are you my father or something?"
"Father?" Myrin stared at me quizzically and then burst out laughing. "No. No. I am your father's, right-hand man. I have been tasked to find you. Now that I have let us go back to the Divine Kingdom."
"No." I bluntly replied.
Elcro was confused at my sudden outburst. He wasn't sure how to answer.
"This place is my home. I am not leaving."
"Your home? You have only lived here for a short amount of time. This is just a pebble of your life. You will have a real home to return too. The one that you have lived in for sixteen years."
"I don't remember."
"You don't remember?" He froze, trying to process the words that I had said.
"Yes, I don't remember living in such a place. This is my home. So with that being said. I will take my leave, and I hope you have a wonderful day." I walked away from him as quickly as possible. I didn't want to stay next to the crazy man and instead went straight back to the castle. I felt a strange constriction in my heart. The word Myrin Drakel continued to ring over and over again in my head.
"Young mistress?" Coco saw me coming through the door like the wind. "Young mistress?!" She called out towards me as I passed by her as if she was not there.
"Is she alright?" Tart peeked out from the door catching a glimpse of me as I ran.
My head and heart hurt to the point where I felt like I was going to be choked. I didn't know what this strange feeling was or understood where this was coming from. Blindly without looking where I was going, I saw the magical door open up in front of me.
With every bit of strength I had, I jumped, changing into my dragon form. I dove into the massive piles of gold and swam in it like it was water. The gold's clinking sound continued to fall down as I moved, and its lullaby made me sluggish and sleepy. My mind was in turmoil, and everything that happened today was like a tornado that came and swept me off my feet.
I calmed down slowly, and I snuggled deeper into the gold, washing away all that happened today. Sleep drifted towards me. Right now, I was just a dragon named Berry, who loves to eat gold.
