Isekai Journey Of The Magic Archer

He was amazing~. And so were the beings he brings back with him every time he comes back home from a small trip.

I was looking forward to what it might be... but even I didn\'t expect this.

"A wyvern egg we found in Rein\'s relic room. It will be difficult and maybe dangerous, but I believe it would be alright. I... we have a few children with us. I believe one more would be manageable, right?"

And he was smiling warmly while saying that.

It was absurd to just so casually say that they \'found\' a wyvern egg laying in her room.

But sister Elle was also casually nodding at his words. She was also like him...

We were talking about a wyvern here... a WYVERN!

They were called the rulers of the sky and some were even protecting some of the important points of the empire.

\'And there are only six in the empire! It\'s certainly absurd!!\'

And they just casually said it was an egg of a draconic species as if they were introducing a cute cat.

It was absurd... but we were also talking about my big brother. It was most certainly believable if he was saying it.

And Anna had a bright face with star-filled eyes, so it was even more believable.

It was just a big green egg, but I can tell it was special from the special Mana around it.

The egg was on the table of his office desk and we were standing around it, looking at it with surprise and a few more emotions.

But we all were just looking at the egg. That much was true.

It was something with the most presence, after all. And in this perfect atmosphere...

"It wants to come out~!" Anna shouted in an excitement-filled voice and at the same time, we all saw the small shaking of the big egg.

"...!"

And it was astonishing for all of us. Most certainly for me because I was going to see the birth of a wyvern!

It was my first time seeing the birth of an energy creature too! It was just too exciting~!

The situation was sudden for the two who brought it here too, but they probably knew something like this was soon going to happen anyway, so their reactions were milder.

They moved away from the desk with smiles, and we all focused our eyes on this special event.

\'A wyvern...\'

They were some of the most amazing creatures and I had seen one once from afar. That one belongs to the imperial family. And it was majestic!

\'Would this one become something like that in the future, too? I will be able to ride it, right? It will be fun~!\'

But brother Eon will be the one to rise it... wouldn\'t it just follow him then?

Brother will become even more powerful with the addition of such a powerful force...

\'No problem though! I will definitely catch up and surpass him!\'

I knew I will at least become a better mage than him. Far better that he will have to rely on me for the things he couldn\'t do.

But that was the story of some other time. I was still weak, and the egg was starting to crack now...

-Uwwwu.

-Kraaaaaa-triiiiiiip!

A weird sound rang out with the cracking of the egg and after a slice of breathtaking moments, the cracking intensified and a big, sharp nail came out after breaking the hard-looking shell.

"Kreeeeee-ptttt!" the sound rang again, but we knew this time that the sound was coming from the egg, meaning it was the baby\'s voice.

\'Beautiful...\'

I didn\'t know why, but this strange voice just sounded pleasing to me.

Another big nail similar to the previous one pierced the egg and the two nails opened the egg as if opening curtains.

After that, while taking the hard egg as support, the creature claimed out of the egg, its only known world.

Then, it was out...

\'And it\'s gorgeous...\'

A scale-covered green body, a beast\'s sharp features, and a draconian\'s unique eyes with reddish gold pupils.

It was a wyvern, so it had the wings like hands and two back legs.

Its wing-like hands had a sharply curved talon and its legs also had sharp claws.

This creature was young, but still... I could feel the great Mana fluctuations caused by its presence in this room.

\'But it\'s strange...\'

I was feeling weird for some reason and the wyvern was also just looking around calmly without crying or causing any kind of ruckus.

They were depicted as ferocious creatures who spread devastation in their paths.

\'Well, this one\'s cute...\'

It was a little bigger than the povpoi, almost as big as Tuuli, but it was certainly a cute one.

It was also looking around the room as if it was searching for something... or someone? And when its eyes met mine... the wyvern baby just kept looking at them.

It was looking at me with a strange gaze, and it certainly wasn\'t something normal.

The strange feeling I had from the moment I saw this creature was increasing as it looked at me.

And after a few moments of this staring that seemed eternal to me, the newborn wyvern blinked, and a smile appeared on its small cute face.

It lifted its wing-like front hands and tried flipping them in an attempt to fly... and unlike newborn birds who take a long time just to understand the thing called flying, this one already knew how to use its wings and suddenly started floating...

"Kreeeeeee-ptttttt~!" it made another cheerful sound but then suddenly...

-Sweeeeeeeesh...!

There was a storm in this room…!?

-Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeesh!

A powerful whirlwind shook the entire room and destroyed many papers as soon as it appeared.

-Sweeeeeeeeeesh!

And it continued until it covered half of the room with the wyvern as its center.

\'This feeling...\'

I knew everyone was shocked by the sudden appearance of the storm, but there were protective spells of my brother to help them.

They were also strong enough to protect themselves and everyone else so I could do this...

"Alf...? Alf?! Alf stop!" mom shouted as soon as she saw me walking forward and toward the whirlwind. It certainly was dangerous, but I didn\'t know why my whole being urged me to take these steps and go toward this dangerous place.

"Alf?! What do you think you are doing?!!"

That was pretty much everything they all were shouting, but there was nothing on my mind aside from this pretty creature right now.

"No way... damn! Amazing~!"

But still, this cheerful cry of my big brother was as clear to me as the flipping sound of the wings of this wyvern.

I knew he would have already understood what was going on when I was still in the dark about it.

Still, I knew one thing...

"Kreeeeeee-ptttttt~!" it shouted again, now a strange green energy surrounding her small self.

Well, she was big if we took into account her whip-like sleek tail. But that wasn\'t important right now.

The newborn wyvern was smiling at me and only I was standing here right now.

There was still this strange feeling inside me... a strange feeling of longing? Well, I didn\'t understand it, but it was definitely there.

There weren\'t many things that could cause this strange feeling and thinking deeply about it, the most probable answer to this strangeness was...

"You... want to become my familiar?"

"Kreeeee-ptttt~!"

I didn\'t know if it was an illusion or something, but maybe I could feel what she was saying.

It wasn\'t just that I understood what she was saying, but also that I could feel the endless affection hidden in that voice.

It was the same feeling as he had described. But still, the question remained...

"Why me?" I asked with genuine curiosity.

I desperately wanted a familiar but never such a grand creature.

I had never ever thought that I could make a draconian my familiar. It was just an absurd thought, even when thinking that people called me the mage genius of the continent.

It wasn\'t like I was someone strong, like my brother or even my sisters... I was still weak and young.

"Why me...?" It was a genuine question and the wyvern just looked at me with a confused expression.

"Kreeee!" then it just cheerfully smiled and hugged me with its long neck.

Maybe because she was just a kid, but she still didn\'t understand much about all the things that she herself was doing.

"Understandable..."

She did most of the things on instinct, even though she had basic wisdom.

She was also just following instincts right now, so I should just be lucky that I was the one this one chose and this was how we met...

Familiar was like a lifelong family and part of one\'s life.

Just finding these special creatures was one of the greatest tasks for a mage, so I should be happy that this unexpected event brought the two of us together.

\'And I have to thank big brother and sister for this...\' but that was for after I finish things with this one.

Smiling weakly at the cute creature and looking around the devastation around the room, the myriad emotions of my family members, from the overly excited grandpa to my mom, who was almost on the verge of tears.

They were my family, and so will this little one from now on.

"So? Would you like to be my friend and be with me until fate allows it? I\'m not that strong, but I know I will be the best mage out there someday.

I also have a pretty amazing family and I know everyone will just love you~."

"Kreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee-pttttttttttt~!"

That loud answer was vigorous. And as soon as she said that, the green light surrounding her intensified and covered both of us.

I had already heard the stories of everyone in my family who had a familiar, so I knew after this second last step of bond-forming the last thing that completes this sacred ritual was...

"How about... Utopia? I believe you are already perfect. And I will make sure you also don\'t feel the absence of your parents when you stay with us.

At least, I will try my best so that you can be happy and smiling... just like right now."

I really had no words to express this special feeling...

I had genuinely dreamed of the day that I finally find my own familiar and become a complete mage, but now that I was living this moment, I now understood what they meant by feeling... special.

"Kreeeeeee-ptttttttt!" she answered with another cheerful voice and then suddenly bit my right hand.

"Ouch! That was-"

But before I could say anything, the green light covering the two of us was absorbed into our bodies, and the place she had just bitten off just now twitched with a strange burning sensation.

[[ I loooooooove that name~! ]]

"Hmm?!"

[[ Thanks papa~. ]]

"...!?"

It was the voice of a kid younger than Anna or the povpoi children. And it felt like I had already heard this voice countless times in my life.

And on the back of my right palm, there was now a strange mark that looked... just like her.

It was a familiar mark. Something that big brother, sister Elle, and uncle Brian had.

And now, me too...

It was the mark signifying the bond between a strong creature of nature and a normal person. I was some of the special few who had this special mark and... a special friend like this young one here.

It was really a fulfilling feeling now that we had each other, and grandpa was right when he said a familiar completes a mage. I really felt like a new person now.

It was an ineffable feeling... but certainly amazing.

Utopia... was definitely a cute name, too.

And I knew aside from my big brother... this new little friend of mine was going to be a good friend and playmate of the little girl who was still looking at the two of us with those same sparkling eyes.

And this room was almost destroyed because of the winds from Uto, so that amazing smile despite the destruction around her was also unique~.

But whatever it was, I could see everyone was happily looking at the two of us with warm gazes.

Especially the big brother who made this possible... he had a proud, warm smile as he looked at me and Uto.

She was happily floating around me, too. Excited to see the new world awaiting her...

\'It\'s the start for me, right?\'

I was a complete mage now that I had her.

\'Then I should try harder than before.\'

I still had to catch up to him and then surpass him. He was my goal after all~.

\'Hopefully... he won\'t \'request\' me to clean up this messed up room. Hopefully...\'

We were talking about some of the biggest rooms in this house after all... it would be... tiring.
