章 8: Eight
What is he saying. I'm human.
" What are you saying that dragon ?"
" Demon can not see this bow. " Why does demon can't see that is it magic or something like that.
I don't really understand what he's telling me, I look too much like a human to be anything else, I grow up with human and I look a lot like them .
"Well, just keep that bow with you and learn to use it, it might come in handy one day, you know. " How can I use this if I don't know how it works.
"Wait, aren't you going to teach me how to use it?"
"No, you're on your own and I have no idea how this thing works, I just wanted to get rid of it." The dragon chases me out of the cave and I find myself outside before I can answer.
"You're here Lilith, we can go home now. " I'll get my revenge for what she did to me today later, but first I have to tell her about my find.
"Grandma, look at this." I show her the bow, but I feel like she thinks I'm crazy.
"There's nothing in your hand Lilith, are you not hinting?" It's just like the dragon said, she doesn't see it. I just put it in my bag.
"Let's go home then, and I can't wait to get comfortable again." It's going to be a long way to the castle.
"Hold on to me Lilith, we'll get to the castle as soon as possible." I don't even have time to hold on to her when she flies off and takes me with her, she could have helped me earlier anyway.
"May I know the real reason why you brought me with you today." I asked without looking at the ground.
"Well, I wanted to test you, Izzy's future wife has to be up to the task." What is this face she's giving me, she looks both delighted and disgusted.
"You're afraid to look down Lilith, but you should see the landscape at sunset, it's really beautiful. "
I take a deep breath and then put aside my fear of heights and look at the landscape, it's even more beautiful from above. A question comes to my mind.
"Why don't you live with your family?" I've been here for a month now, but it's the first time she's come to visit them, or maybe I'm wrong.
"Well, I like to travel too much to stay in one place, I think the world deserves to be discovered, all of its corners. "
I find this way of being really exciting, discovering other places, living in different cultures, it sounds really good.
We keep flying until we get within a few meters of the castle.
"Sorry Lilith, but you're far too heavy" Why is she telling me this. She lets go of me in one go, well, after having survived several ordeals it's time to give up the ghost.
I've got tears in my eyes but at least I would have had a nice happy life, oh no not too much in the end I would have never had my first kiss nor found my first love, but it doesn't matter. People will remember me as the stupid one for trusting that grandmother. Dad I'm finally going to get to you.
I only have a few feet to go before I hit the ground when I feel someone catching me.
"You've had quite a fall, sweetheart." I thought I'd never be so happy to hear that nickname in my life.
"Izzy, thank you for saving me, I thought I was going to lose my life because of your grandmother." I still have tears in my eyes but at least everything is better.
"Don't worry I'll always be there to save you because after all you're the woman of my life" she'll never stop, I start to laugh, and she puts me down.
"Now I can finally take a shower and then I can finally eat something other than fruit." I'm really exhausted after this day, I'll need at least two days of rest after that.
"Let me walk you to your room then."
We go to my room, then I put the bow on my bed and I see Izzy looking at me funny again like grandma did earlier.
"Um... What are you doing?" I couldn't really explain to her, she already thinks I'm crazy, so if I did, it would be even worse.
"Tell me, do you have any books about other cultures or even living here? " Before I was only interested in demon culture I should think bigger and be interested in all cultures.
"Yes, of course, but why are you only focusing on that now?"
"Well I really want to learn more about other cultures, until now I really felt like I was only focusing on what was around me and not looking beyond that. "
"It's a good motivation but be careful there are things you shouldn't know because it's way too dangerous."
Why is she warning me about this?
"Yes, don't worry, everything will be fine." She come near and give me a hug we really act like a couple without being one but maybe in the future we will be.
"Take your shower I'll bring you the books right after."
"Okay." I grab a towel and head for the shower, it's the most refreshing shower I've had in a long time, I wonder what will happen to me.
When I've finished I get out of the shower and see that Izzy has, as promised, dropped off the books, but she's not in my room. I get dressed and decide to open one and start reading it. There is a letter and I open it.
Letter:
You, human, you who may think you are above such advice, but I must urge you once again to put an end to your doubts. There was a war fought for the extermination of my race, though your memory is too fickle to remember. And to welcome another - even a half-breed - into your realm will only bring ruin. If you insist on such a reckless course as killing us, know this: You have been warned.
And it ends here, so there was a war before, but I don't know where did this happened and the only thing that I know is that this people hate human.
Sorry for the spelling mistakes.
