Trapped in Another World With No Magic (NSFW 18+ Chapters)

Chapter 53.5: Reignleif wants another Baby

~Reignleif is one of the dragons, but no egg-laying this time. She asks Daniel, since Geirahoel simply asked and got what she wanted.~

***

Daniel inspects the waterline near the base of the Citadel and where the end of the castle town is. Xyreko is already working on solutions, so Daniel is somewhat listlessly reflecting on the battle.

When he turns around, he flinches. Standing directly behind him is a woman with soft blue hair reaching her shoulders, and a blue mantle with a high collar that hides her mouth and cheeks. She has metallic blue horns and a blue tail that sneaks out from under the white dress she wears under the blue mantle, and her sky-blue eyes stare up at him, the slightly narrow pupils shifting a little as she stares into his eyes like she wants something. She's also lovingly cradling her egg close to her belly.

"R-Reina! You surprised me. Is everything alright?"

She nods silently.

"Ah. Good, good. Well, I'm glad to see you."

Her cheeks turn a little pinker, and she murmurs, "Thanks, Mukori..."

Daniel pets the egg gently, and Reignleif steps closer to him so that he's not reaching as far. "Feels like it's taking forever. Definitely a lesson in patience for a human."

She also strokes the egg gently, nodding in agreement. "It's my first egg... I didn't appreciate how long they take to hatch when it wasn't mine... A-And..."

"You don't have to say it," says Daniel gently as he touches her hand with his. She smiles gently, nodding once more.

"Mukori... Can I ask you... for a favor?"

"Always. If it's something I can do, I'll do it."

She blushes a little. Before she adds anything, though, Daniel teases, "I'd ask you to tell me what Mukori means in return."

Her cheeks fill with more obvious color, and she asks at almost a whisper, "I-Isn't it obvious?"

"Is it a dragon word for human?"

Her eyes narrow a little, and she shakes her head. She murmurs, "It has a few meanings together. Mate... Partner... L-Lover... Dar... Darling..." She blushes as she shrinks into her mantle a little, avoiding eye contact now.

Daniel is quiet for a moment. He replies softly, "Thank you, uh... Can I... call you 'Mukori'?"

She locks her gaze to his, her pupils widening as she flushes in surprise.

"Is that a no?"

She snaps out of her momentary trance, and she presses in close to Daniel, and he somewhat reflexively holds her. The egg is pressed between them, and she replies softly, "P-Please do... Mukori."

He whispers in her ear, "Mukori."

She uses her left hand to grip his shirt as he holds her close.

She finally makes her wish. "Daniel... Mukori... Please... I... I want... what... G-Geira..." She fidgets with his shirt, trying to form words. She swallows, looking up at him with watering eyes. "I... I want... y-your baby, too, Mukori."

This time, it's Daniel's turn to blush. It still catches him a little off guard when he's propositioned so directly.

"E-Even though number one hasn't hatched yet?"

She hugs the egg firmly, but she nods sheepishly. "Th-This one... isn't yours..."

Daniel knows she's not being mean. It's the truth. While he helped Xyreko with the process, it's actually from the DNA of an ancient dragon that was in storage in the Citadel since long before the betrayal. Each of Ryuogriar, Reignleif, and Geirahoel's first eggs were from different dragons that had passed away long before. The thinking was that hopefully, they won't inherit any personality traits like the cruelty prevalent in the former dragon lord, his brother, and the green sage, just to be safe.
