Reincarnated Into A Transformer In Cybertron With A System - Chapter 15
Night Shadow went through the barrier and looked at the city with amazement. The city was bustling full of species of different races which made the city look livelier. Luxurious clothing, delicious-looking food, weapons, etc were displayed on the display of the shop. Beyond that was plains. But the most eye-catching thing in the city was the object in the middle of the city.
Night Shadow also saw that below him was a place for people to land and a pathway that goes to the city. Night Shadow decided to land and start heading towards the city. So, he nosedived towards the landing-place, and when he was just about to hit the ground, he opened his wings. Night Shadow slowly landing and congratulated himself for his first successful flight. For Night Shadow, this was a different experience than flying in the shape of a jet. Nonetheless, it was a nice experience.
‘One more thing, I should make friends with Laihymnr. It will better to be on the good side of him’, Night Shadow thought and shuddered from remembering the creature.
Suddenly, a voice came from far, “Ah, hello. You must be Night Shadow, right?”
It was a male’s voice and Night Shadow turned to see who it was. What he saw was a man who was 10 feet tall, reddish-peach-colored creature. The creature was human-like but had 4 arms instead of two, two black-colored eyes, peach-colored hair, wings with a wingspan of around 3 meters, and wore silver-rimmed glasses. The creature’s face was in the shape of a lizard.
Night Shadow nodded and asked, “Who are you?”
The creature replied, “Hello, my name is Drako. I am the ruler of the Pugnea. I was sent a message by Darrin saying an important guest is to be welcomed and taken to the middle ring. So, here I am to escort you”
Night Shadow nodded and asked, “Could I change to a different form?”
“Please, make yourself comfortable”
Night Shadow thanked Drako and transformed into his human form. Drako curiously looked at the transformation. It was the first time he was seeing a dragon transforming into a human, after all. A minute or two later, the dangerous black dragon had transformed into a handsome man. Currently, Night Shadow was n.a.k.e.d so he had no choice but to wear the robe which he got in the previous world and put on the hood.
Drako looked at Night Shadow with a weird expression. Truly, the robe was not suitable for Night Shadow but Drako did not comment on him. Night Shadow knew what Drako was thinking and also wanted a different pair of clothes so he doesn’t need to wear this everywhere he goes. Well, he added one more thing to do while he was here.
Drako looked at Night Shadow and asked, “Shall we?”
Night Shadow nodded and also a question, “Hey Drako, is there a shop for clothes here?”
Drako understood why Night Shadow asked this question and nodded with a smile. Night Shadow let out a sigh of relief and started walking with Drako. The pathway in front of them was straight and with different colored trees on the sides. It looked like scenery from a picture. Night Shadow was amazed and looked everywhere with awe. Drako did not interfere and continued walking.
It took them 20 minutes to reach the city entrance. The entrance was a big white arc and the city was surrounded by 50 feet tall golden walls. Night Shadow looked at it and nodded. It was grand and quite flashy.
Night Shadow followed Drako as he entered the city. What greeted Night Shadow was the noise of the busy crowds. Night Shadow looked around and saw species of many different races walking and talking with each other in peace and harmony. Friends, families, couples, and so on.
In the middle of the city stood a grand mansion in white and silver and the buildings and shops were placed 25 meters away from the mansion. Most of the shops and the buildings had orange roofs and white/peach walls and the architecture was similar to the buildings of the medieval period.
Night Shadow moved towards the mansion but kept looking here and there. Some species of different races looked at Night Shadow with either caution or curiosity. They knew who the ruler of Pugnea was and how high his position was in the royal court was. So, in their minds, they thought of Night Shadow as someone of a higher position than Drako and bow to the duo wherever they passed. Night Shadow ignored them and continued moving forward.
“Drako, could you take me to the clothes shop?”, Night Shadow asked.
Drako looked at Night Shadow and nodded. He then turned in another direction and started moving. The duo went past the many buildings and before reaching their destination. The clothes shop had peach walls, square clear glass windows, orange-colored tiles for the roof, and some kinds of plants at the entrance. Drako turned and told Night Shadow to go inside. Night Shadow went towards the door of the shop and opened it.
Ding~
A sound resounded in the shop as Night Shadow opened the door. The inside of the shop was very big and had rows of different types of clothes on hangars or on the walls. There were two sides, which indicated, male and female. Night Shadow turned left and headed for the male section.
The shop was also quite crowded right now. If these beings from different races looked like human beings, Night Shadow would have thought this was a clothing shop from Earth. But Night Shadow did not pay much attention and went towards the counter.
Night Shadow reached the counter and asked, “Hello? Do you make custom clothes?”
The female person at the counter looked up and nodded. The female was blue in color, had wavy dark green hair that reached her shoulder, two silver eyes, and two arms.
The female assistant nodded and said, “Please follow me”
The female stood up and walked behind the counter to a door and waited for Night Shadow. Night Shadow went around the counter and inside the door. The door closed and the female asked…
“Please show me the type of clothes you want”, the assistant asked.
Night Shadow thought about how to show the clothes he wanted when he got an idea. Night Shadow showed a holographic picture of the clothes he wanted. The assistant looked at the clothes carefully for a few minutes before asking…
“Alright, you can put that away. If you provide the materials, we will do it for no cost but it will cost you if you wanted us to buy the materials for clothes. So, what will you choose?”, the assistant asked.
Night Shadow replied, “I will provide the materials but you would have to dye it, is that okay?”
The assistant nodded and asked for the materials. Night Shadow removed one of the metallic crates from his storage and put a few bricks of Rarefied Energon in it before activating deconstruct. Night Shadow’s arm turned into the gun and the bricks started melting. While this was going on, the assistant’s face was looking surprised. The first time she was surprised when he showed the clothes, then the time when he removed the crater from nowhere, and now when he started melting the materials without even touching it.
‘Just, who is he?’
Within a few seconds, the Rarified Energon was melted, and a translucent liquid was now present in the crate. The assistant bent down and looked at the liquid with amazement and curiosity. She touched the liquid, smelled it, and even tasted it, and all the while Night Shadow waited for her to finish with a weird expression. The assistant looked at Night Shadow with an embarrassed face.
She said, “Cough…Yes, I will be able to dye and use this material. It will take 10 minutes at most”
“Really?! Just 10 minutes?!!”, Night Shadow asked with shock. Given that the clothes were made from the liquified form of Rarified Energon, she would need to have a lot of strength to convert into threads and weave them into a dress. The assistant looked at Night Shadow as if he was stupid.
Suddenly, Night Shadow realized his mistake. Magic. She could use magic. Night Shadow apologises and went to look for an item in the shop.
10 minutes later, at the counter, Night Shadow was holding an object and the assistant was holding Night Shadow’s clothes.
“Sir, there is still some of the liquid remaining, please collect it”, the assistant said.
Night Shadow collected his clothes from the assistant and presented the object and said, “I would like to buy this”
The assistant nodded and said, ” That would be 5 Aera”
Night Shadow guessed that “Aera” was the currency here but he did not have any. Night Shadow thought about what to do when he got an idea.
“I currently do not have any Aera left but in exchange, would you like to keep the remaining liquid and the crate for this”, Night Shadow asked.
The assistant thought about it and nodded. She handed the object back to Night Shadow and pointed towards a direction.
“The changing rooms for male are there”
Night Shadow thanked the assistant and went to change. A few minutes later, a 6-foot human came out of the changing room. All the eyes of the room looked at that human. The human was wearing a completely black overcoat that was reaching his legs with a long collar, a black shirt hidden by the overcoat, a pair of black pants, polished black heeled shoes, and black gloves. On the backside of the overcoat was a purple dragon’s head with black eyes. The human was also wearing a black mask that was covering his whole face and a pair of 35 cm black horns extending from the forehead of the mask bent backward with the tip of the horns purple in color, pointy, and slanted upwards.
(Author’s note: Hey guys, I am sorry that I can’t explain the clothing properly. Imagine something similar to this, if possible T^T)
It was none other than Night Shadow. He looked really cool and was the center of attention of all the species in the shop right now. Night Shadow did his best to ignore them and exited the shop.
Night Shadow heard a “Please do come back again!” before exiting the shop.
Currently, Drako was waiting for Night Shadow outside.
Night Shadow said, “Hey Drako! Sorry for making you wait for long”
Drako looked at the Night Shadow with a neutral face that turned into shock. He could not recognize Night Shadow after he changed his clothes. It was like an ugly duckling turned into a beautiful swan. Well, Night Shadow was not ugly but the dress did not suit him. Night Shadow saw that and waited for Drako to calm down. Drako shook his head.
“Ye-yes, let’s get going”, Drako stammered and took the lead.
“By the way, how did you pay the money, Night Shadow?”, Drako asked.
Drako knew it was unlikely that Night Shadow had any money(Aera), so he asked this question.
Night Shadow replied, “I had something she was interested in, so I exchanged it for this”
Night Shadow pointed at the mask and the dress. Drako understood and kept walking forward. The duo did not start walking towards the mansion but rather, behind the city. Night Shadow got confused but did not ask any questions. They kept moving forward until they reached the other side of the city. It was plain and in the distance, Night Shadow could see something.
Suddenly, Drako said, “Night Shadow, we will keep going towards that thing, alright? That thing is your only way to go towards the middle ring”
Night Shadow nodded and Drako started moving. Although it was plain here, it was really a magnificent sight. The rays of the orange sun that fell upon the blue-colored grass on the ground and the wind blowing, made the view look beautiful. But, Night Shadow had to keep moving forward.
The duo took 30 minutes when they reached the thing. The thing was a golden-colored oval ring and in the middle of it, was a blue liquid. Drako turned towards Night Shadow and bowed.
“It was an honor meeting a Cybertronian and I wish our time could have been extended. Alas, you will be going now so do take care and wishing you all the best for your journey”, Drako said with respect and sincerity.
Night Shadow smiled behind the mask and nodded. The thing he enjoyed the most here was people giving him respect and, unlike the Fallen Divine World, no one did anything stupid to him.
Night Shadow started moving towards the ring and walked inside.
