Dear Fairy, Please Contract with Me - Chapter 1
Hi. Am I your first fairy?
Then let me tell you a very important secret.
Fairies are omniscient, but ignorant.
I know that bread is baked until it’s golden brown
What is crispy on the outside and soft on the inside
I don’t know what kind of emotion it is to think it’s delicious.
I know that the sea has natural blue waves and white foam
What is the coolness of the waves and the coolness of the wind
I don’t know what kind of emotion it is to be cool.
Knowledgeable and inexperienced, smart but naive
Children hugging an unread language dictionary.
Fall, fall
To this land, to this world, to you.
You know, you’re actually the first person to me too.
Be friends with me. Make a contract with me
Please stay by my side as I learn the world.
Doom becomes Om and Om becomes breath.
You breath, I give you my form to Origin
Origin presents Terra to us,
Your vis and my vita.
Our Soul Spirit contract.
Shaking Candle Tower. Trial round and round.
The stellar planet
Please open your door to me
Give me your breath
I will be your strength. I will protect your life.
Because I want to live with you.
If you like me like that, just follow me.
Issen, Furyl, Bacallas, Grandpa, Yula.
Fall, fall
To this land, to this world, to you.
Fairy Drop, Fairy Drop.
~*~
Shaaa…
Fairy drops began to fall for 13 days this year.
Fairy drop.
It was the name of the rainy season that fell every six years for 13 days across the universe. It got its name because it rains raindrops that contain a lot of the psychic energy necessary for the birth of a fairy.
Shaaa…
Fairy Drops fell generously in the deserts of brown sand, in the craters of boiling red lava, in the forests of green trees, in the blue seas, and in the developed cities where people live.
Shaaa…
In winter, it rained instead of snow for the first time in a long time in Ulan, the northernmost fortress, where a blizzard blows all the time.
“It’s a fairy drop!”
As the whole world began to get drenched, people alike left a bucket outside their house to receive fairy water. Read only at pm tl.
It was not intended to aid in the birth of the fairy. Fairy water flows and flows, naturally stagnating somewhere, and after being affected by the surrounding environment for a long time, it was necessary to have the will to be born. The odds of a fairy being born out of stagnant water in a can were extremely low. Even if one was born, it must have been a fairy with the attributes of a can.
The reason people receive fairy water is because it is a healing medicine. Drinking a cup of fairy water, which is full of energy, clears your head and improves your mood. How could such precious water flow into the soil?
Trading with fairy water was strictly prohibited by law, but it was allowed to personally place a barrel outside the house to receive fairy water. People were happy to conserve and drink the fairy water they had collected during the Fairy Drop until the next Fairy Drop.
In this relationship, the fairies would usually wake up in the untouched nature rather than in the city. Of course, there were fairies born in the city, and right now, here in Ulan.
Plop.
A drop of water bounced off the top of the highest spire in the castle with a clear sound. The water droplets reflected Ulan’s scenery on the surface when first woken up.
‘Happiness.’
People were running around in the rain, laughing and not even using umbrellas. If it doesn’t rain during the Fairy Drop period, which is said to be the blessing of the Origin given, when will it be? People didn’t even care about the cold.
From the center of the universe, the light of Origin, the sun that gives a clear view of the world, twinkles and illuminates the ground, and clear raindrops soak the devastated land.
Woo…
Shaaa…
Even though the cool and scorching icy wind blew, the people just rejoiced. People were enjoying this moment full of vitality.
‘It’s fun.’
The scenery of the water drops was very impressive. The refreshing pleasure overflowed and even the person watching was happy.
‘Ah! That’s what happiness is…’
‘Happiness is a very good thing.’
The drop of water rolled down and gathered other water droplets together. The water quickly rose and the water droplets became streams.
After looking around the scenery of Ulan for a long time, the stream paid attention to the end.
Beyond the forefront of the Carbid Empire, an achromatic dark space squirmed. A stream of water cascaded down, facing the ominous landscape.
‘Doom. Ancient Darkness.”
‘You have to fight Doom to protect your happiness.’
‘You need strong attributes to fight.’
The stream of water glared at Doom and ran down and down the tower’s wall. It reached the bottom of the citadel, stagnated for a while, then flowed down the slope and was sucked into the rainwater drain.
‘It’s very dark. Narrow and fast.’
The stream of water was delightful as it poured violently from the lightless pipe.
‘Down, a little further down…’
The stream hit the ground, but it did not stop and dug into the ground. Using the gray wall that continued into the basement as a guide, it descended to the deepest and darkest place.
Finally reaching the edge of the wall.
As the path disappeared, the stream of water sprang out in all directions. Most were scattered into the soil like the root of a tree, and only a small amount of water permeated through the cracks in the building.
But the consciousness of the droplet, which was the core of the stream, was right there.
A stream of water condensed into a small puddle in a corner of the room located over the wall during the rain.
The puddle was very pleased with the room that arrived.
‘It’s very dark. If I stay here, I can become a powerful dark fairy.’
‘If I became darkness, all the darkness in this world would be mine, and it would squat under my foot.’
‘
The darkness under my control will eat up the darkness it doesn’t want and protect its happiness.’
‘In the end, even the darkness of Doom has no choice but to become a part of me, my strength. That way, I will be freer than anyone else.’
‘Ah, that’s great.’
‘Darkness seems like a really nice attribute. I will become the strongest fairy.’
The puddle was delighted and continued to think.
But from time to time, it felt a gaze.
The puddle was robbed of all consciousness by that clear gaze.
It had no choice but to do so.
Because this was the first time anyone looked at the puddle.
And the darkness resembling Doom was buried dry in his gaze.
At that moment, the attributes of the unborn fairy were almost completely determined by darkness. The puddle, barely holding back the urge, leaned against the dim light next to the door and cast its master’s gaze upon its surface.
Shackles and chains that bound the limbs. Skinny body. Skin that has turned white and cracked. Sunken cheeks. Dusty gray-brown hair and pale blue eyes.
He was a young boy who wanted to be about six years old in human age. However, the vitality of the humans it had seen on the ground could not be found in this boy looking down at the puddle with his cloudy eyes now.
There was a very faint curiosity in his gaze. The puddle, like raindrops on a still lake, realized that its presence had stirred in the numb boy a small concentric circle of agitation.
The puddle, stimulated by the concentric waves, felt curious for the first time.
‘Why is this kid looking at me with those eyes?’
There was no way to solve the question, because the boy did not speak and the puddle could not speak.
Even then, time passed just fine.
The boy was still alone. Every now and then, when a big, grumpy-looking guy comes into the room, drags him away, and pushes him back.
No, now that there was a puddle, he wasn’t alone.
“…”
When the boy was in the room, he only stared at the puddle. The puddle also only saw the boy on the surface.
Towards the end of the month they had observed each other, the boy would occasionally reach out and poke the puddle. But when a drop of cold liquid lightly wet his finger, he slipped away, as if he was afraid that a small puddle would dry up if they were in close contact for a long time.
Just as the boy became very slightly active, there was a wave of change in the image of the puddle.
‘Why don’t you laugh?’
‘Why are you alone in this dark room?’
‘Other people looked at each other and laughed.’
‘I was happy. Happiness is a good thing.’
‘You don’t look happy.’
The puddle somehow hated the boy’s calm expressionless expression. When he returned from being dragged by a man who walked in and out of this room, there was only one expression on his face. His forehead would always have a cold sweat, but he didn’t want to see that expression for some reason in the puddle.
‘What about your other expressions? I’m curious.’
‘I miss you.’
One day, the first desire suddenly crept into the puddle’s heart.
The puddle scrutinized the world’s knowledge in consciousness. After searching for a while, it found a line of knowledge that people are generally comfortable or happy to see fresh plants.
‘Come to think of it, I haven’t seen a single plant since I fell here from the top of the castle.’
Since this place was adjacent to the Doom Field, it seemed that plants could not grow. This child must have never seen a plant.
The thought that started once spread endlessly towards the ‘plant’, and eventually the puddle was decided.
‘I will show you a plant. Would you be surprised? It will change your mood when you see it.’
But there were no seeds that could grow into plants here.
‘Then I have no choice but to become a plant myself.’
The puddle that decided the direction of the attribute trembled. The boy opened his eyes wide in surprise. It was so much fun. The puddle gathered all its mind and condensed its body. A drop of highly concentrated water became a seed and permeated the floor.
‘I’m going to be the freshest plant in the world!’
