Isekai No Tensai's

CH-2 Magical Existence & Black Dragon

Shou looked at the girl named Lisa, on his face was a bit of regret and sadness. However, in his previous life Shou was part of anti-social. He can still talk to teachers and other students in his class formally, but non-formally or outside of school discussion he is not able to do so.

“Oh yes, what is your name? From earlier I felt strange, it seemed because I did not know what to call you.” Lisa said.

“Eh, yes. Right too!” Shou scratched his head before finally introducing himself.

“Shou, very good name. I like it!” Lisa bluntly.

“Really?” Shou was delighted to hear the praise from the sweet lady.

Lisa nodded, “Truly good.”

“Good, if it is like that.”

The atmosphere became quiet again, because it did not know what other subjects they wanted to talk about.

As the situation continued, Shou also ventured.

“Will you venture to various places if your mother is healed?” shou asked curiously, because he felt that Lisa was constrained and wanted to leave the village as beautiful as this.

“It looks like it is, but I won't expect much.” Lisa took a breath.

“Why?” Shou was surprised Lisa would say that.

“My mother has been sick since 8 years ago, there is no medicine or healer that can treat my mother. I can only help him bring food, clean his body, and make him herbal medicines recommended by the healers.” he said.

He was very patient and steadfast in serving his mother for many years, even willing to harbor the desire that became his suffering all this time.

Lisa tears as Shou asks his father.

“Ah, sorry. I don't mean to–“ Shou not so continue his speech, he prefers to wipe the girl's tears and look at her carefully.

“I'm sorry!” he said when their views met.

The woman removed both of Shou's hands from her face, trying to wipe away the remaining tears.

“My father died 9 years ago, while fighting against a black dragon in the capital Dessilva. The incident cost the lives of dozens of knights, in order to save the lives of residents in the city. At that time my father was his captain, and he did not want any more of his subordinates to die from the deeds of the black dragon. He was forced to use forbidden magic to imprison the black dragon, and he was imprisoned in it as a consequence of using the forbidden magic.” Lisa tried to hold back her tears and let out a somewhat restrained sigh.

“Magic?” Although Lisa was telling her sad story, Shou seemed even more interested in that one word.

Lisa nodded, “he used the forbidden magic for the sake of subordinates and so as not to cause more damage. Instead of remembering me and my mother, he was more concerned with his honor than his own family.” The girl laughed wryly while continuing to endure the turmoil of grief and disappointment in her father.

Magic yes, it seems that in this world there are more interesting things than science. Is the magic in this world like in the movies I've seen? After all he said that his father fought with dragons, which meant that the existence of such mythological creatures in this world still existed.

“Despite that, your father is very heroic. His sacrifice is definitely remembered and he will be remembered as a hero.” said Shou who is currently thinking more about magic.

“I don't need that!” Lisa screamed quite loudly, thankfully not until the shepherds and farmers heard her.

Shou finally realized, that this girl in front of him was not an information provider that he could use at will. He also needs to pay attention to the girl, who now needs help as well as support.
