Her age was about that of a high-school student, and a kawaii-type of girl.
It was a visitor that came to my house.
ăUn, thatâs rightăă
I replied with the usual Cânan-child-mode.
ăOnee-san, who are you?ă
ăMy name is Ignes. UhmâŠâŠis Lucio-san in the house?ă
ăIâm that Lucio you know?ă
ăâŠâŠâŠâŠEeeeeeeehh!!ă
Ignes was very surprised, surprised so much she backs off half of her body.
ăY-YouâŠâŠhow old are you this year?ă
ăIâm 8 you knowă
ăNo wayâŠâŠto think that it would be a child like thisâŠâŠă
This time, she was disappointed. She was a girl who is very emotional.
ăUăn, is it okay with a child like this. Itâs a child, so it mightâve been just be a Oya-baka, no, a Ojii-san-baka. But I have no other clues, so I should just tell him anywaysă
She somehow started mumbling. I can hear it all though.
ăYou know!ă
ăUnă
ăLucio-sa--I was introduced by Lucio-kunâs Ojii-sană
ăBy Ojii-san?ă
ăRight, Lucio-kun, was very good at reading Grimoires he saidă
Itâs true that Iâm very good at reading manga.
ăUn, Iâm very goodă
ăReally? According to Lucio-kunâs Ojiisan, you can read it with a day, but thatâs really exaggerated rightă
ăUn, he said it exaggeratedlyă
ăAs Iâve thoughtâŠâŠă
Ignes became disappointed.
ăIt wouldnât take a day you know. Depending on its contents, I could read it within 10 minutesă
ăâŠâŠEh?ă
Ignes was petrified.
With a surprised expression, she stared at me.
ăI-Itâs a joke rightă
ăUăun, itâs trueă
ăT-ThenâŠâŠthis Grimoire, can you read it for me?ă
Ignes took out one Grimoire.
I donât know what she wants to do, but a Grimoire--if she wants to give me a new magic then thereâs no reason to refuse.
ăItâs okayă. Itâs hard reading while standing, so can I read it inside the house?ă
ăUnă
Together with Ignes, I went inside the house.
Entered the room I decided to be living room, and took a seat.
I opened the Grimoire, and started reading.
Sylvia enters the room.
ăItâs tea, pleaseă
ăT-Thank you very much. You are?ă
ăIâm Lucio-samaâs wifeă
ăEeeeeeeehh?! Is Lucio-kun, already marriedă
ăYes. Ah! Lucio-sama have one other wife, but she had things to do and is not here todayă
ăTwo?! Although heâs still 8?ă
ăUnă
ăHaaâŠâŠă
Ignes looked at me intently.
Itâs somehow uncomfortable being stared at while reading.
ăUhm, why did you want this Grimoire to be read?ă
Sylvia talked to her again. Ignes looked at Sylviaâs way.
Nice job, Sylvia.
ăThat, is my grandmotherâs Grimoire. Itâs the only magic that Obaa-chan learned, and when I was still a child, she took care of me using that magică
ăWas it like thată
ăItâs a magic from my memories, so I wanted somebody to use it one more time. So I consulted Lucio-kunâs Ojii-san who was Obaa-chanâs acquaintance. Because Ojii-san is a famous person that can read a lot of Grimoiresă
With Ignes and Sylviaâs conversation, I grasped the situation.
At the same time, I had finished reading the Grimoire.
ăIâm finishedă
ăEh? No way! 30 minutes still havenât passed you know?ă
ăUn, it was a Grimoire easy to readă
ăDid you really read it?ă
ăIâm not lying if I can read the Grimoire or not. Because I canât use the magic if I couldnât read ită
ăAh! I seeă
Ignes was convinced.
Thatâs right, you are going to be able to use the Grimoireâs magic if you read the Grimoire, so thereâs no way to lie about that.
ăShould I could the magic?ă
ăU-Un! Pleaseă
ăThen, letâs go outsideă
We went outside. Sylvia talked to me.
ăLucio-sama, why are we going outside?ă
ăYou will know it soonă
I said that, and took a distance from Sylvia. Because that was needed.
ăTransform: Dragonă
I used the magic. My body changes.
Gradually, I became a huge dragon.
Standing on two feet, with wings from my back, a dragon thatâs about 5-meters.
Thatâs right, Ignesâs Obaa-chanâs Grimoire, had a magic to transform into a dragon.
ăâŠâŠObaa-chană
Ignes looked up to me, seemingly moved.
She is probably remembering her Obaa-chan while looking at me.
ăOnee-san, how do Onee-sanâs Obaa-chan do it?ă
ăAh! She let me ride on her back, and fly to the skyă
ăI seeă
I grabbed Ignes with my claws, and made her ride my back.
ăThen, letâs go. Sylvia, Iâll leave the rest to youă
ăYes, please take care, Lucio-samaă
Being seen off by my lovely wife, I fluttered my wings, and flew up to the sky.
ăWaaăâŠâŠă
With Ignes in my back, we flew around the vast sky.
ăThe same scenery at that timeâŠâŠă
ăDid Onee-sanâs Obaa-chan often did this?ă
ăUn, she always let me ride in her back. If I begged her, alwaysă
ăI seeă
ăThank you, Lucio-kună
ăUăun, Iâm happy if I was of helpă
ăReally, Thank youă
Ignes tells her gratitude one more time.
With that Ignes on my back, we flew around the sky for a while.
She was really thankful, and letting a cute girl ride my back while I flew around the sky, is a very precious experience that Iâve had.
