Novia and Melusin continued to move forward in the endless land of blazing heat, but under the cover of magic, modern technology could not capture their figures.
When dusk begins to fall, the outline of the top of the volcano is already in sight, like a never-extinguished flame, illuminating everything.
"Hey, Novia, are you going to jump right in from here?"
Although Meilushin was not worried about such a temperature, she was mainly worried that the temperature would cause any harm to Novia beside her.
Novia nodded gently, and at the same time looked at the magma constantly beating against the red sea of fire, which had a long rhythm that had never stopped since that day.
For some reason, unlike thousands of years ago, the volcano that originally had several passages is now closed, leaving only the top...
This may have been done by Typhon himself later.
"I'll be working on stopping the volcano from erupting later. Please make sure there are no casualties, Milushin."
Ever since Novia arrived at Mount Etna, she learned from Meluseen that one of the most active volcanoes in the world seemed to have become active again because of her arrival. Perhaps Typhon sensed the presence of Albion and issued a warning out of some territorial awareness.
Indeed, when Novia arrived here, he felt the same lively atmosphere as a thousand years ago.
"Okay, that's totally fine!"
Then, the original Rune appeared beside Novia and jumped directly from the crater.
At first, after quickly crossing the orange-red magma, he came to the place where the blood-red magma was. He saw the blood-red magma constantly rolling and flowing like liquid flames, emitting dazzling light.
At first, there was a faint glimmer, and then, in the blood-red, bubbles in the molten lava continued to rise and burst, making a slight hissing sound. At the same time, the sound of boiling molten lava was heard, and the low and powerful roar seemed like the roar of some creature.
"Get out of here! Albion!"
Along with violent roars, in the tremor that seemed to shake the heaven and earth, endless lightning gushed out from there.
Do you think I am Albion incarnate?
Just as Novia was thinking this, the endless electric light disappeared instantly the moment it touched Rune, and the volcano that was about to erupt also calmed down.
So, finally, he saw her.
Deep in the volcano, in the secret place of magma, she stood there, her whole body covered with black things, looking like countless black snakes wriggling.
The red hair spread out in the blood-red molten lava, and the eyes, one golden and one black, seemed to contain light and darkness.
Just like when we first met.
"You...it's really you..."
Typhon lowered his eyes and looked at the bloody magma, and the reflections of himself and Novia in it.
"Well, here I come, Typhon."
The girl raised her head and met his eyes, which had never changed. Her heart skipped a beat because of the depth of his eyes.
The uneasiness or fear that was lingering in my mind gradually disappeared like an illusion.
Because if you say it, it will come true, no matter how impossible it may seem at first glance, it will miraculously come true.
Typhon sincerely believed this and believed that it must be so, as if it were a self-evident truth.
There are no miracles in this world, there are only inevitability and coincidence, and what the person speaking has to do. Sometimes action becomes inevitability, and then overlaps with coincidence to make dreams come true. One thing is certain - nothing will happen without a wish.
She took a natural breath and unconsciously raised her hands, clasping them in front of her chest.
Then, Novia and Typhon began to look at each other silently.
After all, we haven't seen each other for a thousand years, so we should have a lot to talk about.
However, the two people just looked at each other silently.
But, actually, this is all that is needed.
There is no need to do anything deliberately.
For Typhon, being able to stay with Avia like this makes him feel peaceful.
This is the same as before... Having said that, having said that.
Since that day of separation, the world has continued to go on unchanged, as if nothing has changed.
In the beginning, Typhon would be on top of the volcano, basking in the warm sunshine, recalling the past, accepting everything, and being prepared...crying, laughing, and accompanying the quiet cycle of the four seasons.
The days of waiting passed like this, and I hardly felt it because it was so leisurely, bathed in the tranquil sound of the tide and the dazzling sunshine.
On the other side of that distant memory, forever and ever.
Suddenly I realized that when I look up at the sky, the blue, high, and unchanging sky, although not too far away, sometimes evokes melancholy thoughts. When will I be able to see it again?
The scent of the sun and the tide carries an indescribable warmth, and I think back to how long it has been since that day passed.
There's one more day left since you left, and my longing for you continues to grow.
When Typhon felt this deeply, he curled up weakly and began to cry.
I don't get any response anymore, so it's a bit painful.
I wanted to do more and more, help more and more, but I clearly need to do everything well, and I clearly haven't had the time to start yet.
Even though the red-haired girl knew that she was completely free and the volcano that sealed her in the past had lost its effect, she was still unwilling to leave. She flew towards a place that was very high and wide, yet very far away. She wanted to stay there.
Because, you can go anywhere, which means you have no place to stay, no place you want to go, and no place you can go back to...
Although I don't know how long I have to wait, I still want to see you again. If possible, please don't leave me alone again.
Just as Typhon was about to say these words——
"—Typhon Efmilos."
His call made Typhon swallow her words. She took a breath, and her breathing stopped. She clasped her hands tightly in front of her chest, pursed her lips and waited.
Somehow, Typhon knew that Avia was about to say something very special.
For Novia, he still has something to do.
As someone who has made Typhon wait for so long, I still have some things to say.
"You know, Typhon, I'm good at chasing people, but I'm also good at finding people."
The silver-haired young man took slow steps forward, with only the red molten lava rippling beneath his feet as he moved forward.
"That's why——"
Novia looked at the red-haired girl's gold and dark eyes, without any alienation or disgust, and still smiled: "I'm here."
"I'm here to find you and take you away. I want you to be by my side and spend your life with me, forever."
The red-haired girl said nothing, but just opened her gold and dark eyes wide.
She couldn't find the words to express herself, couldn't put into words how she felt.
Because me too, I also hope to be with you forever..., with you.
Even though I got the response thousands of years ago, I still can't help but feel ecstatic now.
So, as if driven by this emotion, the red-haired girl moved her body before she could speak or think.
Now, there was only a short distance between the two sides, less than one step. Typhon stepped into that distance and made it return to zero.
Typhon reached out and grabbed Novia's shoulders, as if to prevent him from escaping, and stood on tiptoe, facing the position of those lips -
Carefully, he kissed her.
168: Dragon Bullying
"Wow, Typhon, you can actually become like this."
Melusin, who was quietly waiting for Novia's return in the crater of Mount Etna, naturally saw the red-haired girl holding hands with Novia at first sight.
Although he didn't recognize him, but from the aura emanating from his body that seemed to blend into the volcano, and considering the purpose of Novia's visit, Albion naturally understood that this shy guy was the Greek Taizu Dragon, Typhon, an original dragon like himself.
Although she was a little unhappy, the silver-haired girl was reluctantly happy when she thought about the one-day promise she had just received from Novia not long ago.
"It is Albion. I was not mistaken..." Typhon tilted his head and continued to observe for two seconds. He said to Novia in confusion, "Why does she have so much of your aura? How did she do that?"
Suddenly, Novia showed a subtle expression, and Melusin nodded deeply.
"Yeah, how did you do that?"
"Is it data transmission?"
"Yes, that's right. It's a very special teleportation ability between humans and dragons. Typhon, can you do it?"
Melusine held her head high in front of Typhon with a smug look on her face.
"I see. I won't lose to you, Albion."
"By the way, my name is Meilushin now, which is different from yours."
"Oh, it's Meilushin. Anyway, I've decided—"
Typhon always felt that there was something else mixed in Albion's words besides this.
She thought, maybe, it might be some experience that she didn't know about.
"I am going to transmit the data inside your body to you, Avia!" Typhon said seriously, "Avia, tell me quickly, where is your data transmission port?"
"Um......"
Novia cleared her throat and glanced at Melusin, but Melusin had a happy expression that said 'I know nothing'.
"We'll talk about this later. Let's go back now."
"Then let's go back and transfer the data? It's very simple. I remember that we just need to connect to the respective management devices and make sure that the data is not affected by abnormalities and leaked during the process. It will be done in no time."
Typhon said seriously, and then added.
"Let's get started. Well, I definitely have more than Melusin now."
"Oh, I think it's impossible for you, Typhon, to do that."
Meilushin showed a provocative look and took Novia's hand without giving in.
"why?"
"Because you're so stupid, Typhon."
"......Avia, Melusin bullied me. She is not a good dragon."
"Don't talk about it for now."
The young man sighed, feeling as if he was actually taking care of a child, but he still forcefully interrupted the argument between the two and pulled them along, walking together.
"Whatever it is, let's continue discussing it when we get home."
Then, just like when they came, after avoiding the possible routes of airplanes flying in the sky, Melusine took Novia and flew away from the unchanging sky. As for Typhon, she could only stare at Melusine with an unhappy look on her face from behind. She admitted that her speed was indeed a little slower than Albion's.
And because of the cover of the original rune, people would only see them as three clouds that disappeared very quickly.
Not long after that, when Shatiao Aige, who was staying in Romania, had just finished writing down what she had strictly set for herself and what to do at what time every day in order to improve Novya's favor towards herself, there was a knock on the door. She instantly calmed down and opened the door very ladylike.
But how to put it, she couldn't believe her eyes.
What's going on? How come Novia just went out for a while, and there's another dragon? Why is he still so strong? How come they're all stronger than me?
Moreover, looking at this guy's undisguised, affectionate eyes, damn, another rival——
"What!? Novia, you're leaving?"
When she heard the silver-haired young man in front of her say that he was sorry to trouble her and wanted to go back to his own home, Sajo Aika suddenly felt that her future was hopeless, because in her opinion, if she didn't keep in touch with him, the distance between her and Novia would become farther and farther.
After a few months, Novia would smile and say, "Sajo Aika, you are a good person..."
The horrible future she was thinking about made the girl's head burn. She felt that she had to think of a solution.
"No! You are guests, how can I not treat you well? Let's stay for a few more days so we can get to know each other..."
In short, with Sajo Aika's repeated persuasion, the blonde girl's wish has now been fulfilled.
.......It doesn’t matter, as long as you persist and are willing to spend time, you will succeed sooner or later!
Aika Sajo encouraged herself in her heart until late at night, when the harmonious atmosphere among the four gradually dissipated and they each returned to their respective rooms to rest.
The blonde girl lying on the bed was thinking about what to make for breakfast the next day when she suddenly remembered what Meluseen had done today. Feeling something was wrong, she immediately got up and looked at Meluseen's room. There was no one there, and there was no one there either, including the new dragon named Typhon.
