The dragon lady looked at the silhouette getting clearer as it approached the island. She took a blink before she darted her glance from it to the young man that was lying unconscious on the beach sand.
The waves smoothly played their natural tune toward her ears as she tucked a strain of her jade hair behind her ear.
"Hmm, looks like we et again there, miss."
The dragon lady didn't look at the source of the hoarse voice and only looked at the young man. There was a hint of fear behind those jade iris and silvery pupils of her. Fear not because of pain, but because of loss.
"Ah, master!"
"Master is hurt!"
The two servants frantically ran toward the unconscious young man before sitting on their knees. They saw blood had painted the entirety of his body and they turned a face of worry.
The acute Tuey saw their expressions before saying, "There is no need to worry, older brother will be fine."
"A-ah, thank you miss!"
Both of them bowed toward Tuey to her opened eyes of disbelief. Her cheeks blushed as her lips slightly went agape. It was the first ti in a while that soone called her 'miss'. Her tail waggled without her consciousness to do so.
The two servants suddenly ripped their clothes before Tuey's heart jolted, "W-w-what are you doing?!"
"W-We are going to wipe the blood off of his body... is... is it bad?"
"Oh..."
"Is it bad???"
"N-no continue please."
"Thank you."
The two servants started to wipe the blood off his body. Though it was not as effective as using water to bathe him, they could only make do with what they have. The sea was not an option since the salt in it could make matter worse for his opened wounds.
(Damn, this young man is sothing else) thought the old man as he stood from the side. Even he knew from the looks of her eyes, that she had fallen in love with him. He pondered how did Lyon do it again and again before eventually giving up. (So won couldn't fall in love with you even if you have eternity, while so could fall in love with you overnight huh).
The old man sat down before he asked the dragon lady, "Excuse miss, are you two going sowhere?"
The dragon lady raised her eyebrows before she darted her glance from the young man to the smiling old man.
The old man smiled wryly, "Are you two going sowhere??"
The dragon lady didn't answer as the latter could only felt a coldness from her aura. (Yikes, she is almost the opposite of my rough daughter).

"I will take the silence as a no then, hahaha."
(Man this is awkward as hell)
"What are you doing here?" asked the dragon lady.
The old man raised his eyebrows before he answered with a smile, "I've co to take him away hahaha."
Suddenly his heart froze as a flash of a sword was a push away from puncturing his throat. Her silvery pupils and jade irises were filled to the brim with killing intent. He could see a thousand ways that he would be sliced and diced by her fluent language of the sword.
"N-No, please wait and listen to for a minute."
Though the old man could very well dodge it, he didn't want any unnecessary conflict. Not to ntion that could prove strenuous his relationship with the unconscious young man.
The old man took a panting breath before he said, "I don't an to steal him from you, we are just going on a little journey to my ho, and of course, you are very welco to tag along."
The dragon lady looked at him with a glare before she put down the sword to a sigh of relief from the old man.
"Alright, let's prepare our departure," muttered the old man.
The dragon lady furrowed her eyebrows before the old man said, "Yes, we are leaving right now, besides there won't be any harm done since he is recuperating in his sleep, right?"
"But, where is your boat? You are not going to expect us to fly over to the Gate of Worlds right?" asked Tuey.
"Well, yes?"
Tuey's mouth and an eyebrow twitched as she looked at the old man. (This old man... he just made a plan out of the blue with no coherent plan like... heh) thought Tuey as she looked at the one she called older brother.
"Ngh?!"
The old man furrowed his eyebrows as he felt an imnse power was coming on their way toward the island. The dragon lady imdiately flew above the island as she looked in a certain direction where the threat coming from. All of her beastly instinct told her to run away but her desire to stay was a lot stronger.
"Stand behind little girl," said the old man as he covered Tuey.
His aloof aura was no more as he looked in the sa direction as the dragon lady.
"Coming, whatever it's coming!"
They could only saw a dot before it zood in and went past them under their helpless glance. Their neck felt as heavy as a mountain as they turned around to see the being that had their lives at its rcy.
The dragon lady opened her eyes wide before being followed by the old man. anwhile, Tuey kept blinking before she recognized who was the being that could go past them that easily.
"Your Majesty, please sleep well."
He pulled out a clean handkerchief before wiping the blood off of Lyon's figure. The twin servants who knew nothing about power were surprised to see soone else would do a job of a servant. However, unbeknownst to them, Lyon's lips had a disappointed expression.
"W-Who are you, sir?" asked the old man.
The dragon lady retracted her wings before she descended down, "Are you... Yoji?"
"Indeed, my na is Yoji, I believe this is the first ti that I et the fad princess dragon," said Yoji with a smile.
"But, that's, you look..."
"Young? Hahaha... It all thanks to His Majesty."
The old man gulped his saliva. To think that the strong man in front of him would call Lyon his liege. Sotis he wanted to slap himself for thinking that Lyon might be adequate for her daughter. (I gotta have him as son-in-law as fast as possible!).
"What did he...do?" asked the dragon lady. She knew there was no doctor in the world nor a fad alchemist who could reverse what state he was in.
Yoji smiled as he muttered, "Immortal level magic spell."
"WHAT?!" shouted the old man as if his heart exploded. He couldn't blink his eyes as he muttered, "Im-immortal magic spell?!!"
"That's right, Immortal Spell."
"But... that's impossible... I've lived a long life and the only handful of people I know that could cast such level of the spell was an ancient wizard that's probably closer to ash than closer to air."
"Hahahahaha!"
Yoji laughed his heart out. He knew sothing like this would happen thus why he focused his glance against the old man's reaction. (Those expressions never failed to amuse hahaha!) thought Yoji.
"Never mind that, co, I've overheard your conversation, I will personally beco the driver," said Yoji as he left them speechless.
The Tetragram Chariot slowly walked their way toward the charioteer before the four stallions stood tall.
"Co!" said Yoji as he reached out his hands toward the group.
-------------
*Swoosh
The wind was breaking as the four stallions dug their way in the air toward the direction that the charioteer commanded.
"There it is, the Gate of World, just go pass here and you will be in the next world," said Yoji as he pointed out forward.
Tuey, the old man, and the two servants had their hair fluttering against the strong wind with their eyes opened in excitent. However, the dragon lady turned around before looking at the world with a hint of llow behind inside her nacing eyes.
She had experienced both sorrow and short happiness in this world. She took a deep breath before she opened her eyes wide in disbelief as sothing touched her butt. She turned around before she saw Lyon was still unconscious but with a smile on his face.
"Heh," she suddenly let out a chuckle before everyone looked at her weirdly.
She threw her silver sword in the air before letting it fall and embedded it on the ground on an island. The blade reflected the light from the shimrs of the sun as a symbol that her journey, her chapter in this world, had finally t its end while another adventure opened its path for her. This ti, with him.
The chariot went inside the gate before coming out on the other end. The old man smiled as he took a breath of the familiar air and said to the group.
"Welco to my ho world. World Blue!"
