Chapter 6 - Unexpected meeting

Hello again, sorry it took so long. After coming back I got really sick, all better now though. So anyway, I changed the storyline a lot and there will probably be no need for the status and things like that. Too lazy to change it though... So yeah, here's chapter six!

----------------------------------------

~Loki~

~Day 22 in another world~

Turning around fully, I looked to see, to my surprise, a young girl with her blonde hair done up in two pigtails. She looked at me angrily before turning and running away.

"Wait!"

I called out to her, what was a little girl doing in a dungeon? What if she gets hurt?! (I later felt stupid because how could a little girl could even come this far into a dungeon, even if it is a beginner one).

"Wa-wait up I said!"

How can a little girl be so fast?

Kyaaa!

She turned a corner and I heard her scream. I sped up and turned around the corner to see a ghoul about to attack the girl. Drawing my sword I stab it in the head to kill it before checking if she was okay.

The girl sat on the ground crying.

"Are you okay? It's gone now, you don't have to be afraid."

She looked at the dead body of the ghoul before looking at me.

"I-I wasn't afraid, I was... I just had something in my eye."

"Then why did you scream?"

"Obviously, I was... Distracting it so I could attack.

She nodded, looking at me proudly (is she proud of coming up with an excuse?)

"Right..."

Hiding my smile I help her up.

"So why were you mad at me? Actually, how did a little girl get so far into a dungeon in the first place?!"

"I'm am not a little girl! I am a proud dragon of the Blue Wind clan, unlike a no name like you!"

"No name? Wait, your a dragon?!"

"Of course I'm a dragon, what did you think I was, a lizard?!  And you don't even know what the clans call dragons like you, are you stupid? Have you lived under a rock all your life?"

"Hold on a second! This is a misunderstanding!"

After thinking for a while I decide to tell her the truth, people from another world aren't exactly rare around here. I watched her face go from anger to confusion, she looked like she didn't believe me but I assured her it was the truth.

"So you don't know anything about dragons here?" She looked at me with curiosity.

"No, I barely even know anything about the dragons in my own world, we always hid so I only met a couple."

The girl contemplated what I had said for a while before looking back up at me.

"Well, I um, apologise for um, acting so rude to you... But you did see me *cough* c-cry so... In exchange for you forgetting what you saw, I will teach you about the dragons around here?"

She was angry because I saw her cry? Well, I guess I would be too... Still, I hope I never make her angry again, that was scary...

The tale has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.

Regarding her deal, I don't see anything wrong with it and I would definitely like to know more about the dragons here.

"Deal, I'm Loki by the way."

We decided that we would kill the next boss first (I forgot to mention this earlier but once you defeat the boss, another one doesn't spawn until you leave the room, so you can rest there before moving on) before she told me anything. I found out her name is Emily but she told me to call her Em (while she looks small she's actually the same age as me).

After teaming up we moved a lot faster though the dungeon, Em reluctantly told me that she was afraid of ghouls because of something that happened as a child. But if the monster isn't a ghoul she can kill it easily. Making me feel that maybe I hadn't improved all that much and I shouldn't get too ahead of myself. But she told me it was fine because dragons were naturally better at magic because their original bodies are already faster and stronger than most other creatures.

"So what was your old world like, was it hard hiding? How many dragons did you know from your world?"

"Well..."

Em really is curious, I'm pretty sure she asked about almost everything! From the dragons and my life to what kind of food I ate, by the end of it all she probably knew enough to live there herself.

"Now that I think about it, how come there are dragons in my old world but no magic?"

"Hmm, I'm not sure. Maybe your world used to have magic? Magic flows in a cycle, much like many other things. It lives in the air and is absorbed by creatures that live off it, when they get stronger, those creatures bodies release magic back into the air. You said that humans live almost everywhere and have caused many animals to go extinct right? Well even though humans can use magic, their bodies don't naturally absorb and release it so if there are no creatures that are able to do that, naturally the magic would decrease."

"But there are still some in hiding though?"

"Well yes, but there's wouldn't be a lot. Your body has probably evolved to be able to cope with the lack of magic the way humans are able to, meaning you wouldn't be able to keep the cycle going."

"Does that mean I'm weaker than the dragons from here?"

"Probably. But over time your body will most likely revert back to how it was meant to be."

"That's a relief."

"This is all just speculation though, maybe there was never any magic on your world in the first place."

After listening to Em I realised we had already reached the next boss room.

"You ready?"

"Of course!"

I'm sorry nothing really happened in this chapter but I hope you can point out any mistakes.
