Neighbors in forbidden land

This is the forbidden land of the north.

Just like the name given by humans, this is a taboo place for humans.

There are only a few plants on the land that is not considered flat, because the climate here is not stable, so their growth is very difficult.

I watched them sprout a head from the desolate land as a seed, then grow into a seedling, and finally grow into a vine that snakes on the ground, or become a yellowish branch.

Of course, some of them may be accidentally crushed by me, or they may be accidentally broken by my tail...

I... didn't do it on purpose. In fact, I seldom move. If I want to move, I will do my best to avoid hurting them.

But every time I take a step, there will be a lot of vibration on the ground, and some children may be knocked down directly.

Therefore, their growth is very difficult.

Therefore, in this land, apart from them, there are only high and low peaks.

This is the forbidden land of the north.

It is separated from the human habitation by an endless ocean, but it does not mean that human beings will not come here.

I vaguely remember that the last time I saw humans coming here was thousands of days ago.

A few people came, they came to peek at my diary carved on the surface of the mountain, I hesitated and decided to say hello to them.

So they were scared away, and fled quickly by boat.

I remember that humans thought it was rude to peek at diaries written by other humans, but I wasn't angry, but they ran away anyway.

because I.

The most fundamental reason why this land is called the forbidden land is because of me.

Because I live here.

I am not human.

What I am, I don't know.

Humans call me "Calamity".

I have also seen myself in my reflection on the sea.

A huge body with a height of tens of meters... I am not sure if it is tens of meters, because from the sea, my body is distorted. Although the general structure will not change, my height seems to be unstable all the time, perhaps because of this Humans will think I'm even scarier.

My body is almost a huge black skeleton, the black hard substance that makes up my "skin".There is something like a head on the top of the body, and the two black holes on the head are my eyes.

Because I don't need to eat or attack other animals or monsters, so although I have a mouth, my teeth are not sharp.

At least compared to the claws on my two arms, it is indeed not sharp enough.But claws are not very useful to me. I often use claws to write diaries on the cliffs on the surface of the mountain, but because they are too sharp, it is easy to cut off the rocks directly, which leads to the waste of all the hard work in the diary. .

The diary is written to this day, and I can barely master this strength.

I have a pair of broken wings on my back that are about the same size as my body. I can fly, but I don’t need to use them to drive the wind. I don’t know why. Just write a diary.

And that tail, which is almost covered with spikes and sharp blades, and tens of meters long, is even more useless, except that it can easily sweep down a mountain when it moves.

I walk on two legs and crawl with my claws, but I move very little.

I should be considered a monster, at least judging from the reaction of humans, the only difference is that humans are not afraid of all monsters, but they will definitely be afraid of me.

So I just stay here, in this land near the ocean.

There is a very long and high mountain range here, which is located by the sea like the gate of the forbidden land. The other mountains around here are at most a hundred meters, and they are all independently distributed, but the length of this mountain range is very long. It is long and about a few thousand meters high. The south side near the sea and the north side near the land are also almost vertical cliffs, so I wrote my diary on it.

Other than that, there is nothing else.

There are no animals here, because they are afraid of me, so stay away from here.

There are no monsters here, because they are afraid of me, so they stay away from here.

There are no humans here, because they are afraid of me, so stay away from here.

So, most of the time, I just lie in one place motionless, watching the sun rise from the skyline, the orange light sprinkles this desolate land, and casts sporadic tree shadows on the plants that are struggling to grow.After the sun went down, the land was covered with a dark veil at night, and he wrote a diary on the mountain peak, and then waited for the sun to rise.

Occasionally, I use my body to help those sporadic plants shelter from strong winds and rainstorms, but after all, I can't help all the plants. Even if I help today, maybe they will fall down tomorrow.

Occasionally go to the beach to see if you can see Mr. Whale floating to the surface to breathe.

This piece of land is huge, but I don't want to go anywhere else.

Because it's just causing trouble for them.

For plants, for animals, for monsters, for humans, for every existence in this world.

will i die?

I will not die.

All existence is dead, and neither will I.

All existences are working hard for life, only I am not working hard for life.

It was supposed to be like this, and it went on like this.

but.

Today, a ship sailed across the sea level.

It is the kind of tool made of wood by humans, and used by humans who cannot swim to move on the water.

I was surprised at the time, but in order not to scare them, I just hid behind the mountain where I usually write my diary, and only poked out the pair of black holes that could barely be called eyes from the edge of the mountain to observe them secretly action.

It's a little foggy today, and humans shouldn't be able to see my eyes at this distance... probably.

Thousands of days have passed since the last time, and humans have come again.

But what should I do?

Will you welcome them in a kind way this time?

Let's just hide, what you do will scare them, right?

Just when I was hesitating, the boat that was heading straight towards this side suddenly started to turn.

Eh?

The next moment I noticed it wasn't a turn.

It's a U-turn.

Eh?At the same time, lights of different colors flashed on the ship, and the offensive magic flew directly towards this direction, the target was... Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh was the tail exposed from behind the mountain ah!

No wonder they ran away ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

Just when I wanted to put my tail back behind me without any help.

I saw a man fall from a boat into the sea.

But the ship didn't stop, instead it headed south at a faster speed than when it came.

Huh?Leave that person alone?

Also, I didn't see that person float up from the sea.

If I remember correctly, humans cannot breathe in water without relying on magic.

So, if this continues, that person will die.

In this case.

I quickly flashed out from behind the mountain and ran towards the sea.

The speed of the ship accelerated again, and at the same time a brighter light shone on the cabin, and more intensive magic attacks flew towards me than before.

Not to mention the distance, magic is useless to me at all.

I took a big step forward and rushed directly into the sea, causing huge splashes to explode on the originally calm sea surface, and the waves of more than ten meters swept away in all directions centered on me.

The movement range should be gentle... Otherwise, that person will be in danger.

He plunged into the sea and began to look for the figure of that person in the blue sea water.

Soon, it was found.

In the turbulent sea, floating in countless white foam, was the figure of that person.

Seeing that person, my first reaction was those plants that grow in forbidden places.

The figure fluctuating with the waves is so fragile.

If it were in the sea, the man would not be hurt.

I found the correct position in the sea, and then used the part of the palm without the claws to support the person who fell into the water, carefully lifted her from the sea, and then quickly returned to the shore, and put the person in the palm on the beach.

It's a human girl.

The light orange long hair that almost reached her feet was scattered on the beach, and the white dress that was soaked and soaked in sea water was pressed against her snow-white skin.But for some unknown reason, her face...not just her face, her exposed skin was covered with blood-red symbols, and her slender limbs and frail waist were bound by thick black iron chains Together, the expression on her face seemed a little pained.

Those blood-red symbols... seem to be magic runes. I don't know magic, but I can feel it.

These magic runes are definitely not good things, at least for this girl, they are harmful.

I don't know magic.

However, I have a method against magic.

"Ho-poof!"

The moment I yelled out, I had to stop shortly after realizing I had almost done something wrong, and ended up making a rather meaningless coda.

My roar dispels magic.

But if she roared at her from this distance, she might be shocked to death.

Then stay away.

I spread out the broken wings that were usually attached to my back, and after a slight movement, I rose into the air without blowing up any wind.

Now my head should be more than [-] meters from the ground, which should be enough.

So I yelled at the bottom:

"Hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo!"

When I returned to the ground, the blood-red runes on her body turned into red dust and scattered away.

But she remained motionless, her tightly closed eyes and slightly frowning brows seemed to indicate that she was not in a good condition.

This, this, this... The rant just now shouldn't have hurt her, right? I tried my best to control my voice... Oh yes... I have to remove the iron chains on her body.

I looked at my paws.

it should be no problem?

Writing a diary should be about the same as breaking an iron chain. If you control your strength...it shouldn't hurt her...

I cautiously stretched out one tip of my right paw, and slowly approached her.

No problem... no problem... just a moment...

I slowly moved the tip of the claw to the top of her body, almost to a chain around her neck.

Then slowly draw down her body...

All the chains were thus severed.

It was cut open along with her clothes.

Still messed up ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Her clothes were cut open from top to bottom by my claws, revealing the same soft and fair skin in front of her.

Fortunately, it didn't hurt her... But I remember that you can't look at the body of a human girl casually, right?

Fortunately, her clothes didn't completely slip off her body because they were soaked in sea water, I just saw a little bit...

I hastily raised two paws to block my eyes.

"Cough, cough, cough, cough, cough! Cough!"

I heard her coughing.

Finally, there is a reaction.

not dead.

That's great.
