  Hairt gets his mouth wide-opened, his eyes’ outer corners are almost connecting with his mouths, the laughter coming out of his throat is so loud and hoarse… You have to be convinced him like this somehow, the normal people can not laugh as loud as he does.

  “Boss just woke up! Boss just woke up…” the short Waldi holds Wen’s neck with his both hands, he shakes him excitedly, he does not care that Wen can take it or not. The poor Wen, he is puking the white foams almost already…

  Feline is still wiping my forehead with a towel, but this time, she has tears all over her face.

  I passed out while I was healing White Shadow, since on, Reid began to heal me with the magic of the dragon race… As a matter of fact, the magic of dragon race is so wonderful, it even brought me back from the edge of death.

  “Please, please stop laughing…” a powerless voice comes from my side, “I’m going crazy…”

  Mmm? I turn my head and take a look, unexpectedly it is the guy whose name is Feshert!

  “It is like this, Kone.” Feline explains to me, “You lost your conscience, but at the same time, you saved the life of that white dragon. Thus Reid said that Feshert does need to die, our magician saved his life and woke him up. But we do not have any other carriage, so we have to leave him over here.”

  “Oh.” I ask, “Feshert, why do you want to kill dragon?”

  “I think… I want…” Feshert is kind of embarrassed, “I want to make a gown for my father with that dragon’s white skin…”

  “In this way…” I turn my head back. “but dragon is a kind of life with thinking. Don’t you mind that a bit at all?”

  "Rullman told me that dragons are evils," Feshert says, "and he gave me the dragon-killing sword.”

  “Rullman? The Prime Minister?” I soak myself into deep thinking…

  We stay on the plain for two days, we are going to separate with the dragons.

  “You must remember all these, she lost a lot of blood, So she must have more fruits and the things which are full of protein… Don’t drink too much water… And don’t have any extreme movements…”

  “Protein???” Reid gets his eyes in a daze…

  “It’s kind of eggs and beans.” I almost get myself down, even the dragons are smart, but they still don’t understand this?!

  “Oh! I understand now.” Reid nods his head, he begins tell the medical advice about me to Feline and Wensly, “the wounds in Kone’s body are almost all healed, but he still can’t move right now, everything is decided by the condition of his recovery. I think that he can get his feelings back in couple days… Oh, this is for you.”

  Reid puts a silver necklace on my neck.

  “My master,” Uncle Meza’s spirit is grand, “where are we going to right now?!”

  “Let’s go back to Saint Capital! We need to make my father happy for a while!”

  The dragons take off from the ground, and they fly to west after they circle over the fleet several rounds…

  “Fleet departing… Target, the Saint Capital!” uncle Meza’s voice is loud and clear.

  On the way to the Saint Capital, everyone begins to laugh and have funs, they play around with each other. Feshert gets the worst from all of them. On the one hand, some of them think that he gets fooled to kill dragon, even he is not a bastard, he is still a fool. On the other hand, some of them think that I can not get my life saved without the reason of him. Well, It should be better said that we saved each other. Thus, Feshert gets all the special treatments throughout the journey…

  I can slightly move my both hands already, my mood is getting fresh and cool. After I stop my friends maltreating Feshert, I always talk with him for a while. Slowly, I find out that this guy has a very smart brain. He can even catches up my thinking that I get from the former life after I woke up the real me. Of cause, it is no way that I talk to him about what airplane or canon things, but it is so amazing that he can catch up my jumping thoughts, and he can deliberate carefully the philosophic theory that I talk about.

  “The thing that you just talk about… I think that it is somewhat reasonable. But can you guarantee the person who practice supervising has the proper quality?” Feshert wrinkles his eyebrows.

  “Thus we need to carry out the education, the education for all people.”

  “Education for all people?? Please talk about it!”

  “The nobles and the populaces, the human beings and the alien races. the innate characters are no differences.” I look at the white clouds on the sky, weigh and consider my words, “the difference is that the nobles have the right to have the education, and the populaces don’t have it. Thus the nobles become more and more arrogant, the populaces become more and more self-abased, and the alien races become more and more savage. If everything keeps on like this, the world will just be more and more disorderly!"

  “Stop!” Feshert raises his hand, he closes his eyes and thinks for a while. And then he nods his head at me to signal me to keep talking.

  "Try to think about how many rebellions and wars in a year. How much money will they cost? If we put those money into the education, we don’t just bury the hatchet only. The more important thing is that we can have more talented persons, we can create more fortunes with these people!”

  “Talented persons? We have them in our nobles.”

  “In a country, how many nobles are there? How many populaces are there. Since there are talented persons in so few nobles, What about the populaces? How many talented persons there will be? They are all wasted…” I raise my head a little bit higher to make myself feel more comfortable, “there are talented persons everywhere in all the classes.”

  “I…” Feshert’s lips are getting white, “want to have some water…”

  ……

  Seeing I hold my body and lean on the carriage waving my hand, my papa’s been gray eyes recover the shines right in a moment, he laughs “Ha ha ha” loudly. He slams a “Hard Cheese” in black magician gown down the stares.

  “Vassel Cada,” the “Hard cheese” wipes his nose blood off, “you are going to pay for this!”

  “Ha ha ha, Kone.” my father does not care about this at all, “come to meet your uncle Webber!”

  “Uncle Webber?” I look at Webber who is all in dust, “the great magician?”

  “That’s right! Your uncle Webber rushes to here after he heard that you got injured, he is ready to leave to catch you, but Who knows that you have already returned to here!”

  “Oh!” I point at Feshert and say, “Papa, this is what I pick up on the road…”

  “Oh?” Papa comes and takes a look at him, “you are… Feshert?!”

  The afternoon, while I am talking to Feshert about nothing lying in the bed, papa comes in accompanying with a man and a woman two people.

  It looks like that the man experiences more years than my father, he reaches out his hand to stop Festert who is going to say something. He comes over to hold my hands and ask me, “You are that Kone?”

  “Yes, that’s right. Uncle, I’m Kone.” my eyes almost just stop on that female. Even though she wears sumptuously, her temperament is very elegant and in good taste, but I can feel even more warms from the maternity that she shows from the moves.

  “Don’t call him uncle!” my father is a little bit anxious, he lowers his body and puts his mouth close to my ear, “you need to call him Your Majesty! Your Majesty Krimer Harmer!”

  “Ah!? Your… Majesty?”

  “No need to do that at home, Vassel.” Your Majesty Krimer laughs and says, “that’s alright to call me uncle, this is your auntie Nashall.”

  “Thank you for saving Feshert.” queen Nashall pulls Feshert’s ear after she speaks to me, “how old are you? You dare to kill dragon in this young age?”

  Hey hey… It seems like that the maternity has the side of violence too.

  “It’s fortunately that we didn’t tight your son up to the pole and burn him to death in the first place.” Your Majesty laughs to s
peak to my father, “otherwise, who is going to save Feshert now?”

  “Ha ha ha…” my father laughs and answers, “didn’t Your Majesty settle everything up?”

  “Didn’t my friend do the same thing?” Your Majesty walks closer to my father, “it’s heard that the Viceroy of the Dark Moon City never bribe anyone, but he offered the great priest five thousand gold coins just in that time.”

  “Let’s don’t talk about this anymore.” my father begins to laugh bitterly, “it makes me poor for these many years.”

  ……

  Finally we see the Majesty Krimer family them three people out, my father talks to me the past about the Majesty Krimer and him. It turns out to be that the Majesty Krimer and my father are good friends since they were little, even though my father is a civilian post, but he solves a lot of problems for the Majesty with his intelligence, he governs the most not tranquil Dark Moon City for the Majesty Krimer in the past years.

  “But, Papa.” I say, “the Dark Moon City is very tranquil fundamentally!”

  “You thought so! Nevertheless, if it’s not for your father, me, work hard for almost twenty years to make it so!”

  “Heh heh… Maybe you are right!”

  “But, the days like these can’t last for any much longer.” my father pads on my shoulder.

  “Why?”

  “These are not the things that you suppose to worry about. I have already made up my mind, you’ll go to uncle Webber and uncle Turnasi there to study after you get well. Hairt and Feline them will go with you, Wensly and Mogardi them need to go home as well.”

  “It doesn’t matter where I am going to, but why do we need to send Wensly them home?”

  “You little silly boy, Wensly them need to go home to study their own races’ cultures and special skills!”

  “Oh, it’s like this…” it looks like that separation is unavoidable.

  “Don’t be so sad!” my father consoles me, “you’ll still going to meet them again! When the time comes, Waldi them will be very strong, Wensly and Wilsa will be more beautiful as well…”

  “Beautiful or not, what’s the big deal… why does papa you laugh so stealthy?”

  “……”

  I try taking a walk in the garden, although I do it with difficulty, I still feel that is not bad. I breathe the air which has slightly fragrance of flowers, I raise my head and take a look at the sky of the night. I walk to the lakeside which is behind the garden, I take a rest for a bit, and then I walk back, the practice of the day is over!

  I walk around a small corner and see a slender sight of somebody, she sits on a big rock by the lakeside, she holds her knees with her both hands, her four transparent wings move slightly in the wind, her long hair reflects the deep leisurely blue color under the moon light…

  “Wensly, what are you thinking?” I walk to her.

  “Kone,” Wensly says, “I am leaving to go home soon.”

  “I know, my father told me.”

  “My mom wrote me that she miss me very much, Wensly misses my mama too.”

  “Don’t worry.” I sit by Wensly’s side and hold her hand, “I am pretty sure that we are going to meet again very soon.”

  “You know?” Wensly holds her chin with her another hand, she doesn’t answer me, she just says in a low voice, “when I was little, my mom didn’t have any time to accompany with me. most of the time, I just sit by the lakeside and look at the water all by myself. I watch the water changing colors under the moonlight, from light blue to deep blue, from deep blue to lake blue… When the gently breeze blows through, the water of the lake will reflects bits and bits of the silver lights, it feels like that it is so unreal… Sometimes, there will be sprinkles, the drops of rain will wave up some ripples, they squeeze each other… And then disappear slowly…”

  “Wensly…”

  “I like the songs that you teach me.” Wensly looks at me into my eyes, “is it alright that I sing it once for you?”

  In the garden, in the light blue moonlight and by the crystal clean lake, Wensly sings for me for the first time.

  Just like the drizzles.

  Spill deep into my heart.

  That feeling is so mysterious.

  I can’t help to raise my head to look at you.

  But you don’t show any traces.

  Even we don’t talk to each other.

  It still makes me unforgettable.

  That’s the eyesight, it’s so clear and beautiful…

  ............

  In Wensly’s ditty in low voice, my emotion tidal surges up. Wensly, do I still have the chance to accompany with you to look at the water of the lake again…
