ASFUCITWON Chapter 189: The Dragon's Gender Change Ability
🕑 Added 2025-04-14 14:32:26 +0000 UTC"Huh? Who said I'm a man?" Yamata-no-Orochi's voice rose, claws folded across her chest.
"Maybe in a past life I was a man, sure, but every time I die and reincarnate, my gender could change! I'm not a rigid human like you who is bound to two options!"
Yamata-no-Orochi pointed to herself proudly. "I'm a dragon, you damn humans! Our reincarnations know no boundaries! And I don't need clothes—these scales are enough, and far stronger than any armor you could buy anywhere!"
Reiji rubbed his temples, trying to contain the explosion of information just thrown at him.
"You... damn..." Reiji muttered.
"So every time the reincarnation cycle happens to you, your gender could change? From male to female, or vice versa?"
"Exactly!" Yamata-no-Orochi nodded firmly, her long hair swaying lightly like waves of water at night.
"Oh! That's true—what about Tiamat? She's a dragon, and everyone knows she's female." Reiji squinted, his eyebrows knitting sharply.
"Are you sure what you're saying applies to all dragons? Or is it just for you, Yamata-no-Orochi?"
The question hung in the air for a moment, echoing in the white room that had no walls, sky, or boundaries.
Yamata-no-Orochi narrowed her eyes and then smiled slyly.
That smile was not a sweet one, but the smile of an ancient being who knows too many secrets of the world and enjoys watching humans in confusion.
"Of course, it applies to almost all," Yamata-no-Orochi said, her voice whispering softly like the wind carrying danger.
"But there are exceptions." Yamata-no-Orochi stepped slowly, her bluish-black wings fluttering lightly, spreading a thin shimmer like dark stardust.
The atmosphere of the room shifted slightly.
Not frightening, but becoming more... tense.
The air felt denser.
"There are also dragons who refuse to change their gender—like Tiamat, that stubborn bastard." Yamata-no-Orochi snorted, her expression scornful.
"That woman is too attached to her old form. Too... 'grand' to change, she says. But in my opinion, she's just afraid of looking 'less divine' if she suddenly reincarnates as a man. Or maybe there's another reason. Who knows."
Reiji nearly choked on the air.
He stared at Yamata-no-Orochi for a long time, his gaze flat, almost like a stone trying to understand the rain.
"...Are you serious?" Reiji finally asked, his voice low but sharp, as if hoping it was all just a bad joke.
"Not really," Yamata-no-Orochi replied with a grin that was almost unhinged.
"But you can't prove anything about Tiamat, can you?" Yamata-no-Orochi's voice was light, almost teasing, like someone who just threw out a riddle and watched another get lost in it.
Reiji sighed and then shook his head slowly, his hand massaging his neck. "You really are a... annoying creature."
"And mesmerizing," Yamata-no-Orochi quickly retorted, a teasing smile etched clearly on her beautiful face.
"But most dragons," Yamata-no-Orochi continued, returning to seriousness, her voice deeper.
"If killed and then reborn, or experiencing reincarnation... their gender changes too. It's like... a new layer in our life cycle."
Yamata-no-Orochi stared intently at Reiji.
"Anyway, we dragons can change our gender at will—either through reincarnation or whenever we want. It's not a limitation for us; it's a choice. A manifestation of will. A reflection of inner strength."
Reiji frowned.
"So, if you wanted to, you could change into a man right now?"
Yamata-no-Orochi paused for a moment. "I could."
Yamata-no-Orochi's gaze sharpened.
"Why don't you just do it? So there won't be any more moments of 'what the hell, I'm talking to a naked female dragon'?"
"Do you want me to be a man?" Yamata-no-Orochi asked with a piercing look.
"Is it to make it more comfortable to talk to me?"
