《Stardust Universe》Chapter 2.2 - White - Crash Course on Faery Dragon
Advertisement
In just a few more minutes, it’ll be a full 3 hour of me leaving Recordia all on her own. What kind of master am I? I should have just kept her safe with me instead of leaving her at the garden…
“Where did I go wrong…?”
Zenith then assured me, “It's okay, White…Nobody’s perfect…”
She patted me on the back as she said that. This was probably the first time Zenith ever had exerted this kind of emotion to me. Looks like she’s getting better and confident by the day. That or maybe her phoenix side was getting weaker after all of those deaths caused by Yumiko. I’m not sure if that’s a good thing or not for her. But I still don’t understand why Yumiko would kill her multiple times. Knowing that Zenith was able to resurrect as many times as she able to, the wicked girl might just be having fun with the information she got.
But one thing doesn’t add up to all of this…Was she really enjoying this? Her face doesn’t seem to show her having fun except for one difference and that is during the kill at Gemhold. That’s an entirely different Yumiko. But knowing that the one enjoying the kill was her clone proves that Yumiko might be more complex than I had known her so far.
“White…Zenith…” then all of a sudden, we heard a gentle voice.
I looked at the direction of the voice and saw Recordia floating about from a distance.
“Recordia!” I ran to her and asked, “Where have you been? We’ve been looking all over for you.”
“What is White talking about? Recordia is confused. Didn’t White ask Recordia to look up on what is a Faery Dragon?” so she says…
“W…what? When did I said that?”
“Recordia tries to remember and then said to White, about seven hours ago.”
“Seven…hour? That was this morning…What are you talking about, Recordia?”
“Recordia is not perfect. In fact, Recordia isn’t even a real Faery Dragon. Recordia is just a mass of Infinitum Energy. Even with that, Recordia is still not perfect. Recordia requires seven hours to look up something inside her library. Recordia explains so.”
“What kind of spec is that…Even a computer is way faster than you.” I was a bit disappointed at her.
“Recordia sadly falls down and said, Recordia is sorry for having such slow spec. Recordia will try her best in the future.”

“Different types…of dragon?” Zenith wondered.
“Yeah, Recordia…Why don’t you tell us then. I think your work deserved to be listened now.”
“Recordia brightens up and say, Very well! Recordia begins! Recordia said that as she points her finger to the sky.”
Recordia didn’t really have herself missing. She actually hid somewhere and began to analyse her library looking up for information that I asked her. The problem with this was that it took her longer than I expected. I thought a Record Keeper would be as fast as a supercomputer but apparently it took her seven hours to look up on the one single thing that I asked. It wasn’t even a serious request…I was just casually asking her if she knows something about it.
But still, what she told us today proved to be something beneficial for both of us. Faery Dragons are like other dragon except that it is comparably small in size. They also have butterfly-like wings just like how a fairy would have. Recordia did mention that Faery Dragons usually lives in one place and it is not the nomad type. This is because their wings aren’t made for long journey. Hence the reason why Recordia couldn’t use her wings as often as we thought she would. Knowing that, I think I made the right call to buy that one thing for her just now.
“Recordia…we got something for you.” I brought out the wrapped gift box from the plastic bag.
“What is that? Recordia wondered.”
Zenith answered, “It’s a gift…for you…”
Recordia looked at us and begin unwrapping the big box first. Once she finished unwrapping that one, her expression began to brighten up even more. She looked very happy.
She then said to us, “What is this? Recordia is confused.”
I explained to her, “This thing…is a toy that floats. It uses a very minimal amount of Infinitum energy to make it float. It’s for you. You don’t have to use your wing as often as before anymore.”
“Wow…Recordia is amazed by the human technology.”
“There’s one more thing. This toy actually has a one-time feature that allows it to transform into anything you wanted it to be. You can make into a plane or a car or a UFO. Anything, really…”
“Wow! Recordia is becoming more excited!”
“So what do you want to the toy to become?” I asked her.

“Recordia thinks for a second and said, A book?”
Even Zenith was confused hearing that, “A book? Why?”
“Recordia begins to explain, Recordia didn’t only made by just a massive amount of Infinitum Energy. Recordia was also combined with a tome that contains the history of the world. In other words, Recordia is actually a book. Recordia becomes a Faery Dragon because she has to suit the needs of the master. Following that order, Recordia now turns into a fairy for White.”
“Is that so…well then…” I tried not to get bothered by that and changed the topic, “Anyway, here’s another gift for you.”
“Another one?! Recordia didn’t expect this formality. Recordia is very grateful to have an amazing master. Recordia said that as she flies to White and hugged him.”
“Zenith helped as well, Recordia.”
“and Recordia hugs Zenith as well. Thank you, Zen…”
“Zen?” Zenith felt annoyed for some reason. “White…she’s following what you’re saying…I don’t like this…Can you also stop calling me that?”
I laughed at her and said, “It’s alright, Zen. There’s nothing harmful to be done. It’s just a name.”
She then pouted as she looks away from me. I didn’t know why she would be so upset over what I call her. Zen is Zen. Then again, I might just be insensitive to her.
But in any case, we got back to my room and see whether she will like the dress we got or not.

“Recordia is ready! Recordia said that as she gleefully smiled at Zen.”
“Yeah…sure…Recordia…” Zenith helped her out to wear her new dress.
Both of them was ready to show Recordia’s transformation. Zenith knocked the door to my room as I was waiting outside the whole time. I got into my room and saw Zenith standing next to a lovely cute fairy.
She was lovely. If I have to describe it, Recordia is a fair skinned girl with dull blue eyes and soft blonde hair. Her hair has been remade by Zenith. Her bangs curl in both directions, with two longer curled pieces of hair that reach her chest. The rest of her hair was worn up in cute short twin tails held by a head piece that covers her ears. It’s like a headphone combined with a nurse hat. There are also a couple of ribbons on it as well. She wears a loose dress with spiked ruffle lining, along with some accents to it and a loose adorable tie. Her shoe was mary-jane style, while her four pieces wings resemble widespread butterfly wings.
My heart started to melt, “You look adorable, Recordia!” I complimented her.
“I really love the frills on this dress. It makes Recordia looks like a real fairy. Recordia smile was as bright as a button.”
Zenith then commented about her dress, “She looked like a graduate with that dress and the tie…all she needs is that graduation hat and she’ll be ready to take her scroll.”
“You know that I had to buy more than one set of doll clothing, right? That head piece and the shoe are not from the same set. Thank goodness I bought two sets for her.”
“Well we did a good job picking the right dress for her…What do you think, Recordia?”
Recordia looked at both of us and said, “Recordia says yes to the dress!”
Zenith then remembered, “Oh yeah. One more thing.” Zenith begins to search for something under my table. She then asks Recordia to come to her.
I couldn’t see what they were doing but when they were done preparing, they revealed to me Recordia’s new floating device.
“Wow!” I was surprised that the floating toy worked out well for her.
Recordia was sitting on top of an opened book that has some chains on the cover of it. It was probably because that book is like a secret book of some sort. The book was floating to wherever Recordia wanted to go. Now she no longer had to use her wings full time to travel around.
“Recordia is grateful to have White and Zen! Recordia immediately hugged White and then Zen. Recordia couldn’t thank them both a lot. Recordia feels like she wanted to cry…but Recordia won’t cry…” But she still cried though. Two drops of tear was on both of her eyes.
I couldn’t have done this without the help of Zenith. She’d done a lot to help me out. I might have to repay her in some way in the future. I’ll keep that in mind. But for now, I’ll be enjoying looking at the two smiles that I’m definitely going to protect…

Fallsinkplummet;
The various races inhabiting the World have evolved from modern day humans after the discovery and use of a new source of radiant energy called Anima, stemming from the psyche. Under its influence, races with traits of previously fantastical creatures have emerged, who still resemble the humanity which gave them birth. The only exception being the large, mythological Dragons, which have appeared after the excessive usage of Anima. These Dragons are served by a race of draconic entities, with skin pockmarked by scales, and possess horns growing out of their heads. These entities--or the Kin, as they are called--are considered the most prestigious race through their ties with the Dragons. Urekin is one such Kin, but has regressed back to his human origins, something which previously seemed impossible. Wanting to get away from his old life and his inner demons, he made his way down to the Cleft, where opportunities abound. Release ScheduleEvery second Friday, 12:00 (GMT+1)
