Chapter 34: Slimy....spirits?

"A drag..dragon?" Visiually shaken to her core, of course becuase of a dragon like figure hovering in the air, in front of her.

Who knows thinking what, she suddenly stands In between the dragon and the slimy creatures, as if shielding baby rabbits from some wolves or something.

’Uuuh?’ What the hell have I done for her to shield them like that. Do I look like some hungry beast or somehting?’

’Beast?’ Oohh, yaaa! I don’t look like just a beast....because I am a freaking Dragon, that is with my enormous wings out on the full display as well, who wouldn’t be surprised, not to say she is little girl herself.

"W-who are you? And what are you doing here, this is..umm...the land under the rule of her majesty, The Seraphina Zephyros." With her voice shaking like crazy, as if talking to ghosts, she shutters some words.

’Hmmm?...Seraphina Zephyros?....hehehehehe it is kinda funny listening mother’s name in such a way and not to say meeting someone who actually doesn’t know that I am the very son of that Zephyros they are trying to protect themselves behind...hehehheheh’

Probably thinking of having some fun, he slowly lowers himself to level of trees across the open area in which they are currently. "Hmm..actually I am resitdend of a village at the out skirts of the forest, I means some where along those lines and by mistake I got separated from my friends and now here I am, In the middle of the forest. Can you tell me in which direction does the blue mountains are?"

Hehehehh....of course, it is not like I really live here or something, and if you guys are wondering how I know the blue mountain and that there is a dragon town at the outskirts of the forest. It is pretty simple, I saw the blue mountain from distance while coming here and I know that few dragon species, too aggressive to live with others in settlement or who have some Flora, or you can say green mana in them, like to live near greenery. That is why there is different small town just at the outskirts which also acts as the border for thus forest.

"Hmmm...the dragon Village? You are from the dragon Village? I haven’t ever gone there but mama said she would take me there once I get of the age to venture out in the world myself." With a very different cheerful and big smilly face, shr replies to him. And ofcourse she relaxes a bit too, knwoing that he not someone who is here to harm, but rather he is himself in need of guidance.

Thanks to me being dragon myself and all the books that I have been read from the childhood that I pretty much know more about than any specific settlement in my country or any country more than what a normal person who has not visited that specific settlement would know.

"Hmm..excuse me? Can I ask you what is your name?" With a different respect with very unfamiliar friendliness she asked him, as if asking your new classmate for his name.

"Hmmm..my name you ask?" Hearing the question, which of course he has never before been asked, Lucian fell silent for a second, before replying,"My name....my name is Lucan"

’Lucan? Why it feels like I have heard the name alot of time? But from whom....was it aunt Mae or mother? NOPE..how would they know him, no one is allowed to go in the Dragon village, other than very ranking maids, where as aunt Mae is not even of that high standing to begin with.....’

As her train of thoughts continues, Lucian lands on the land with Zoopp but this time with all the control he could harness over his body, he stops himself from involuntarily making his wings disappear in the air, but this time keeping them folded at his back, just like any-other non Royal dragon.

You might be curious why the hell I am so much cautiously doing everything in hiding my identity from this little chimaric girl?

Well the answer is myself. Let me explain the thing is that in this world, the things are pretty different for a royal dragon and any other species, like from the other dragons as well, and that difference is how we perceive the very same time itself.

If I am to say it simply, a single second for race is like more than a single second for a royal dragon, too be preside it is like 2 to 3 seconds in Case of a royal dragon and this is what makes the all the other difference between a royal dragon and any other race or being so drastic.

Too understand it more clearly, you can think like I live in a slower version of same world in which non-royal dragons are living. That is the reason why between a dragon and a orc of a same age, the Dragon is gonna be alot faster, stronger and accurate, becuase when we experience that slow time, it is not like we are slow with the time but rather we are faster than the time itself and hence our body growth, our mana capacity, our response time and everything that can grow with time grows at twice or some times the thrice or sometimes even solwer than the normal rate.

It is not like that rate is constant, but it is like it just exists and for some Royal dragons, It is fucking sky shaking while for others it might even not exist.

It all depends on the inate talent, and for reference from what I know I am pretty much about 2 times faster in time, which is ofcourse nothing to in comparison to even the maids of the different races having about 100 to 200 times the speed of times.

NOTE: By being faster then time I mean something like when it is needed they can run at twice or thrice or 4x speed in comparison to their own normal speed. Not that the world always just seems slow to them.
