Ashley sat on the ground beside her dog. She and Puddles stared at the group of people who were engrossed in looking at the dragon tablet. Vur, Tafel, and Mary were sitting right in front of it while Lindyss sat in a rocking chair not too far away. The surface of the dragon tablet was a blank slate to her and Puddles. The dog turned his head towards Ashley. Why dont you ask him to let us watch too? It looks like theyre having fun.
The Light Lord shook her head. Even if Vur let her see what was on tablet, who was to say the other dragons wouldnt be upset at her poking around their private network? Curiosity killed the cat.
But satisfaction brought it back! Sir Selddup said and stood up. He trotted towards Vur. I want to watch too. Can I?
Sure, Vur said. He picked up a pebble and flicked it at the dragon tablet before turning towards the white dog. Can you see?
Wow! Sir Selddup said, his eyes widening. Is that the ninety-first floor?
Yep, Tafel said from her spot between Vur and Mary. Its like were on a tour of the area without actually having to go there; which is nice because theres a lot more dragons than I thought thered be. The demon turned her head towards the Light Lord; she looked a little pitiful sitting all by herself in the grass. Tafel waved. Do you want to watch too?UppTodated from
Ashley cleared her throat and stood up. If I may, she said to Tafel as she walked over. So, the thought of facing lots of dragons makes even you nervous. She glanced at the groups seating positions before plopping herself down beside her dog.
Tafel shrugged. Well, yeah, she said. Dragons are strong, and apparently, they dislike phoenixes.
If thats the case, Ashley said, her eyes shifting between Tafel and Vur, why are the two of you?
Because love, Tafel said and nodded.
Vur furrowed his brow. Letters appeared on the screen, spelling out the message, I dont care. You answer me.
Tafel pursed her lips. If this dragon is Volearden, shouldnt you be more respectful towards him? the demon asked Vur. What if the old dragon was easily angered? Vur and Volearden would probably fight each other if that were the case.
Speaking with my eyes is slow, Vur said and blinked hard. Smaller sentences are easier to write.
The dragon tablet flashed, and another message from Call Me Arden arrived. Im indeed Volearden. Will you answer me now?
Vur squinted at the stone monument and used his eyes to type out the words, Hi, Great-Gramps, Im Vur.
Call Me Arden did not respond. Vur tilted his head as the chat box, which had taken up half the monument, shrank and disappeared from view. A furrow appeared on Vurs brow. This dragon tablet needs better ways to control it.
Why dont you try threatening it? Lindyss asked, not looking up from her knitting needles. Intimidation seems to work well for you.
Vur stared at the dragon tablet for a bit, but before he could turn his thoughts into actions, Ashley cleared her throat. Theres probably some settings on the tablet you can tamper with, the Light Lord said. There should be some accessibility options for blind dragonsmaybe theres a voice recognition option that could turn your speech into text.
Vur nodded before messing around with the dragon tablet, exiting from the clairvoyance app. Before he could find the settings, Tafel pointed at one of the square images with a depiction of the sun directly in its center. Whats that one? she asked. Then, she pointed at another app. Ooh, that one looks interesting too.
Ashley picked Puddles up and placed him behind herself. As if he knew what to expect, the white dog expanded until he was the size of a couch. The Light Lord leaned back, using her pet as a backrest while she looked up at the dragon tablet. It wasnt too different from the personal tablets people had back where she had come from, but it seemed to have an endless number of apps on it. From what she could tell, Erde didnt have tablets, and Vur and Tafel were using the technology for the first time. Hopefully, they wouldnt become addicted to itafter all, the fate of the tower rested on Vurs shoulders; who else was going to eat the Oebu Sin?
