It was quiet there. This is what silence is all about, silence. Normally, in any space there is something constantly called the breath of a creature. Signs, for example, are cats, dogs and other animals, or smaller insects. In some cases it may be even smaller cockerels or plant spores.
But I didn't hear any of those little ones breathing here. A space where there are no living or living things. To the tranquility to the unusual, just one person trapped there was going mad.
"(What the... I didn't know people were not even bugs. Nothing can be done with this. You mean it's impossible to escape)"
The Lord of Thought is Notice. Silver dragons trapped in crystals by Yugdrasil were only allowed to think only and fixed there. If you were trapped in a crystal from body to body, you would naturally not be able to breathe and should die, but Notice lived without breathing about where you did it. One fingertip, you can't move until you reach one of the wings, but Notice is certainly alive. The last faint resistance may have been played.
Being able to think is the proof of being alive. Or even if he was already dead, he thought that if he was a spirit enough to think, he should also be able to make some contact with the outside world.
But I can't move no matter how. And when nothing is lived into sight, it gradually becomes worrying that this is already the land of death and that I will remain imprisoned in this chains of prison forever. Life and death are not so important to Notice. I am only ashamed of my own unknown inability to act on anything, while realizing the dangers of this world. He despised himself as a worthless, unwilling dragon compared to his generation of true dragons, but it still made no difference that he was also a true dragon.
"(WOW... I can't do anything with this. But on the contrary, you have time to think slowly. There's no booze here, and it's going to be the first decent discussion I've had in a long time)"
Notice remembered a little bit of regret for the days when she was sober, but also that there was good wine. As I used the excuse of plenty of time to think about things that didn't go down, I felt the sound of footsteps all the time.
Notice's gaze is fixed, and he barely knows what's going on around him. In his field of view are hallways and walls made of strange ore that glows blue. Notice wonders where she might miss the ancient temples that have been meticulously constructed to the ceiling.
But such thought also took hold, and the Lord of footsteps slowly appeared from beyond the shadows. In this vast temple, you can't even see the edge of the wall, lost in the darkness. And the creature that Notice hasn't seen in a long time is the one who trapped him in the crystal, whoever he may be. The person speaks directly into Notice's head.
"(Sounds like you're awake)"
"(Are you... the guy who locked me up)"
"(It's called Yugdrasil. Because it's a name given to people, you can call it what you want)"
Yugdrasil sat in the front of Notice and went straight into meditation. Notice is annoyed by a man who barely ignores himself and tries to tell him anything.
"(Hey! You want me to give you some explanations? Who are you, where are you, and what is your purpose?
"(... it's a May fly dragon. Should I still have kept it tightly sealed to my consciousness? I just want to say True Dragon didn't let you seal it to your consciousness, but ask one question at a time)"
"(So first, who are you?
Notice asks the boy sitting in front of him. The figure is the boy, but the misalignment is clearly not the boy's brew. Many of those who deliberately take the appearance of a toddler in this way have a market set with the mighty. Because when a strong man suppresses power, when he creates an image that suppresses power, he usually becomes a young figure. In fact, against Yugdrasil, Notice could hardly resist either.
Yugdrasil answers Notice's question sitting still.
"(It's hard to answer that question. Are there people who can define who they are?
"(I'm not expecting a philosophical question, let's change the way we ask. Are you one of the Orange Bulls?
"(buddy, a little different in the sense that Part of my will will be alike, but his ultimate purpose and mine will be different. It would be more accurate to have my purpose on the extension of what he wants to be)"
"(part of my will as well... then is it good to lead the Demon King to slaughter humans?
"(It's a rough way, but I guess that was the best thing he could come up with in his abilities. Affirmative)"
The look on Yugdrasil's face remains the same. Notice was reasonably similar, but her eyes became a slightly convincing color.
"(The best measure...? This is going to be a big key)"
"(That's understandable brains above all. Because it's painful to talk to a moron)"
"(That's arrogant talk. What the hell are you doing?
"(At least I'm building up more reflection on this earth than anyone else. to that extent)"
"(... an ancient dragon?
Notice remembered those who were his own ancestors. Although most of the dragons who inhabit this land from time immemorial have already returned to nature, some of them should still be able to communicate. But in the memory of Notice, there must be no such thing as Yugdrasil. First, the ancient dragons should have exchanged pledges not to interfere in today's world. The older they tend to weigh their vows. Notice denied the words herself.
"(No, you don't. If it's an ancient dragon, I don't know, like... should I say it's close to nature? Unlike Takana-kun)"
"(restless, you say?
"(No, not like that... right, the ancient dragons are less responsive. Their consciousness is more than half misty. It should no longer be possible for someone to discuss this clearly)"
"(Right. In fact, you were right. I've met these ancient dragons, but no one could talk to him. A stronger stimulus or more frequent visits would be needed to shake their consciousness. Gwendorf seemed to be struggling too)"
Notice was a little confused by the words spoken by Yugdrasil. Only a limited number of people should know where the whole lake sleeps. Even if I knew, most of the places were difficult to reach. I've been there, Yugdrasil says all the time.
"(You said you met an ancient dragon? Make as many jokes as you can...)"
"(I hate jokes. It's your bad habit not to accept things you don't understand. You can easily say that the world is full of possibilities, but the words are directed only at what we want, and in the inconvenient direction, we shut our mouths.
Anything can happen in this world. You should be more aware of that. This is the second piece of advice) "
"(Anything...)"
I think he was teased about Yugdrasil's identity, but at the same time, Notice was getting a big lead. Possibility that I've ever ruled out from my thoughts as "impossible". Think of the worst of it.
Seeing him, Yugdrasil gave Notice some advice of his own.
