Chapter 533: Lucifer And Crystal's Past 1



-----

"What do you want?"

"Please give me a bit of that wyvern's meat!"

"Huh? But I hunted it, it's mine! Scram!"

"Hyeeeh! But I need the meat to feed my siblings!"

"Why should I care?"

Lucifer was as rude as he could be when he was younger, walking away without even giving Crystal a glance. The crystal-covered dragoness continued following him all the way to his nest.

"Please, just a tiny bit…"

"Scram I said!"

Lucifer showed her his fangs, but Crystal, although very afraid, couldn't step away.

"I-I also dealt plenty of damage to that monster's Health! I-I deserve a piece!"

"What? The one that kills it gets it all!"

"Don't be unfair! Hasn't your mama or papa taught you anything about a Dragon's Pride? We must always be kind with other Dragons!"

Crystal insisted, only irritating Lucifer more.

"I already saved your life, what more kindness do you want?"

"A bit of meat…"

"Sigh…"

Lucifer seemed to be incapable of hurting her, she was small and shiny like a jewel, even if he was angered, he couldn't bring himself to send her away, even less when she seemed so harmless.

And also, she was perhaps the first dragon he ever spoke with for so long. He ended giving her a piece of the wyvern's meat, a large one at that as he butchered the beast with his fangs.

"Take this and go and stop bothering me."

"Thank you! I knew you would be kindhearted- Ah, what's your name?"

"Lu… Lucifer… That's the name that shows in my Soul Book."

"Lucifer…"

"What's yours?"

"Crystal!"

Crystal… a very simple name, which also represented her scales, which were shiny like crystals, growing all over her body. She resembled a living jewel at times, especially when the light of the sun reflected over her body.

Like that, weeks went by, and Lucifer never got to see her again. He already had forgotten about meeting her once more, living alone most of the time. Hunting, eating, and sleeping.

He often wished he could speak with more people, with more dragons aside from his sister. Yet he felt ostracized, as an orphan that grew slightly wilder without parents, he looked more like a monster than one of their kin.

Most dragons were terrified of him, it didn't helped that he was bigger than most dragons, his body was covered on scars, and his face was ugly and ferocious. He had hunted so many monsters that he had grown very strong through their Experience Points, his strength alone was a detriment for others to approach him.

Because of his strength and the strength of his sister, both of them dominated a large territory, no smart dragon stepped into these two wild siblings' territories, so they had very little interactions with anybody else…

"I wonder where she might be…" He sighed one day, carrying a large Sabre Cat he had caught. "I hope his siblings are not hungry."

FLAAASH!

However, he quickly heard the sound of wings flapping rapidly behind him. He turned to see who it was, and saw a shiny crystal-scaled dragoness. It was her, as if she was an angel, descending from the skies.

"Lucifer!"

"C-Crystal?!"

BAAM!

She arrived at the side of Lucifer, suddenly bringing something for him, it was a small six-legged lizard she caught.

"Here, I caught something for you, to repay the favor!"

"Crystal, you look all bruised, did this take you time?"

"Hahahah…"

"Maybe you need to learn how to properly fight… Anyways, why are you back? Aren't you afraid of me?"

"Afraid?"

Crystal tilted her head in confusion.

"Ah… I see, this girl just lacks common sense, doesn't she?" Thought Lucifer back then.

Every other dragon was afraid of him, they even called him the "Ruler of the Mountain" so nobody got closer, fearing for their lives. Yet Crystal boldly stepped into his domain and happily gave him an offering.

In the culture of dragons, this might even seem like a proposal. When dragons gifted each other with their prey, they were trying to court each other. This was something his sister had explained to him before.

"Remember Lucy, if a girl shows up bringing you food one day that isn't your big sis, she probably wants your baby!"

However, he had to quickly scratch that possibility, Crystal was too clueless to even want that. She simply wanted to repay back the favor.

"Well… thanks. Can you bring this to my cave?"

"Sure!"

The two flew back to Lucifer's cave, as they had a feast with what they hunted, roasting it and taking out the fur made the meat usually way more delicious, something that Crystal taught to Lucifer.

"And if we add this rock salt…" Crystal added bits of rock salt she took out of the mountain's depths, crushing it into dust.

"Why are you adding dust into the meat?!" Lucifer freaked out.

"Just try it~!" Crystal giggled.

"Hmmm…" Lucifer groaned in confusion, skeptically.

However, once he bite through the meat, his senses of flavor finally awakened, he had never tasted something like this before.

The taste of the meat completely changed, his tongue had never tasted something so good before, his senses awakened, everything he had known about the boring, old bloody meat was gone.

"You like it?" Crystal smiled as he glanced Lucifer remain in complete silence.

"T-This meat… Just what sort of magic have you put into this?! Is this really just rock dust?!" Lucifer was taken away.

"It's named seasoning, dummy." Crystal laughed mischievously. "It is something humans and other races of people use to flavor their food! I spied on them once and found out!"

"T-That's crazy…" Lucifer sighed. "C-Can you give me more of that?!"

"Alright, serve yourself as much as you want!" Giggled Crystal.

Since that day, Crystal continued visiting Lucifer every day. His sister had already realized he got himself a new friend and teased him every time she came to visit him.

"So her name's Crystal, huh? I saw her flying the other day, she's a real beauty! So when are you making babies? We could have a big family once you let her lay a few eggs!" Said Brunhild excitedly.
