Chapter 642 A name
?The one that was being avoided by the wyverns was Shaka.
Though he tried to approach a few, it was as if there was something about him that instinctively scared them. In the end, there weren't any of them that allowed him to approach them.
When Shaka saw this, he revealed a smile almost as if he knew what it was that caused this.
Simply put...it was because of his past.
In the past, he had simply killed too many wyverns that there was this instinctively fear that he generated towards the wyverns after this.
It was almost like some kind of instinctive suppression.
When I saw this, I thought about giving him a hand, but...
Shaka shook his head at me as if he was saying that he didn't need it.
Not only that, there was a look in his eyes that seemed to be telling me something.
It was as if he was saying, "If you do this, I won't ever be able to bond with the wyvern that I choose. When the time comes, it will be a failure of your plan."
I knew that he was right since forcing a wyvern to be with him would go against the plan, but...it didn't seem like there was a single wyvern that was willing to let Shaka approach it.
Even if it was forced, there was a chance that feelings would develop between them.
That was the case with arranged marriages, so this might also be the case here...
However, before I could do that, Shaka finally found one that wasn't as afraid of him.
This wyvern was much smaller than the other wyverns and it was clear that there was something that seemed off with it. However, this wyvern didn't seem to react at all when Shaka came close.
This wyvern almost seemed...gloomy compared to the other wyverns.
With the way that it acted, it was almost as if it had given up on life.
But another special thing about this smaller wyvern was that it blended in very well to the background. Until Shaka had pointed it out and approached it, I didn't even notice this wyvern.
Seeing the way that this wyvern looked, Shaka called the wyvern shaman over and whispered a few things to him.
The wyvern shaman looked at him with a strange look before saying, "Are you sure this is what you want to say? My human language comprehension isn't perfect, so there's a chance that I might have misunderstood what you just said."
But Shaka just gave a nod and said, "This is what I want to tell it."
The wyvern shaman still looked at Shaka with a strange look, but it gave a nod in the end.
It gave a roar to the smaller wyvern who immediately reacted.
That smaller wyvern raised its head and looked at Shaka with an incredulous look.
Shaka just gave a nod to the small wyvern and waved his hand for it to come over.
That small wyvern hesitated a bit before going over to Shaka's side.
It seemed that this would be the one that Shaka chose.
When it was all over, all of my people had chosen a wyvern for themselves.
With the way that they acted, it was clear that there were already bonds forming between them even with the hostility between wyvern and humans.
It was a good thing that I had the wyvern shaman translate.
While wyverns were smart and could understand what humans were saying, that was only the general gist since they didn't fully understand the language. Having this wyvern shaman that understood both languages translate their words certainly made things much easier.
When it was done, Cecilia was the one that asked the wyvern shaman, "Is it alright if we name them?"
The wyvern shaman thought about it for a bit and gave a roar to the wyverns before saying with a nod, "We wyverns don't have names in the first place since we never needed them. However, if you want to give them a name, that would be fine."
Though it said it like this, I could hear that there was a bit of an excited tone in its voice.
But I also realized that I made a mistake…
I didn't have a name for my wyvern either.
Not to mention, I didn't even know what gender it was…
So I quickly talked to the wyvern shaman to fix this mistake.
"It's female?" I said in a surprised voice.
The wyvern shaman gave a nod before saying, "That's right, is something wrong?"
I slowly shook my head as I said, "No, it's not like there's anything wrong…" I turned to look at my wyvern before saying, "Then does that mean that it's a Wyvern Queen instead of a Wyvern King?"
To my surprise, the wyvern shaman shook its head and said, "No, the title is Wyvern King regardless of gender."
I couldn't help shaking my head with a bitter smile when I heard this.
I had only asked it as a joke, but this wyvern shaman had taken it seriously…
Turning back to my wyvern, I started thinking about a name for it.
After a while, I said, "How about the name Joan?"
My wyvern tilted her head as if she was asking me where this name was from.
I leaned in closer and said, "Well, it's the name of a powerful girl who once defended her nation from invaders. I hoped that you would like this kind of powerful name."
Though she couldn't understand everything, she did understand the general gist.
She understood that the name that I chose for her was a powerful name, so that was enough for her.
Joan gave a nod before giving a happy roar.
I couldn't help revealing a faint smile when I heard this.
However, there was no time to enjoy all of this since there was still a place that we had to be.
Before we left, I had the fourth prince's people send a private message for me.
