After my 'friendly' spar with my little siblings, It took a while before all of them regained consciousness. Besides White who chose to gracefully retreat before things got bad, Green was the first one to wake up, and as soon as she did her eyes glanced about nervously as she avoided my gaze.
Green's body fidgeted anxiously as I could sense her worried emotions, I grinned and stepped closer towards her as she lowered her head. I raised my palm causing her to close her eyes and shrink into a ball, and then patted her head. 'No need to be so nervous silly, you did well,' I said causing her downcast expression to disappear and her eyes lit up.
Green's tail waged about excitedly as I praised her, she then swiftly hopped on my back and quickly settled on top of my head, between my horns. 'Cute,' I didn't mind and left her there as I turned to glance at White. She lowered her head for a brief second showcasing her respect and to my surprise spoke.
"Brother," Her voice was sweet and elegant as it reached my ears. My eyes widened for a mont in surprise before I nodded in acknowledgnt. Just then Golden boy's eyes shot open as his body jerked awake, he jumped to his feet and took a ready battle stance before he seed to recall what happened.
He then looked at , and surprisingly lowered his head as well. I could see a little bit of fighting intent still burning behind his eyes yet he managed to control and hide it well which in itself was comndable since it's Golden boy we were talking about.
'Brother,' He suddenly spoke as well, his voice ca off as a deep grunt akin to that of an adult dragon, a big contrast to his still immature body. I nodded back in acknowledgnt as well.
My attention was caught by a groan of pain as Blacky finally steered awake. His gaze was glossy for a mont as he stared at the ceiling above in confusion before his eye regained its clarity. A bitter expression took over his face as he turned to face , his one eye unconsciously moved to glance at my left side where he had attacked , only for him to pause in shock.
He must have been caught off guard by the small scar that remained there. Blacky's eye moved from the scar and then to my face, and again back to the scar. His mood seed to elevate as a wide grin took over his face, he was unable to control himself as his emotions escaped him, he was happy.
Blacky lowered his head and spoke in a tone full of respect. "Brother!" He said excitedly. I nodded back in acknowledgnt and replied. "You did well little brother," Hearing say that, his body froze for a second before he bowed even deeper for a second and then stood back up with a face full of pride.
Our mother who was watching the entire ordeal silently from the side made her move at the mont and spoke. "Tell your siblings your na," She said to which I pushed my chest out and straightened my back before replying.
"My na is Aether, bestowed to by the Dragon King!" I proudly declared earning a few envious gazes from my siblings as their eyes sparkled in awe. Mother nodded and then turned to my siblings before continuing. "You have all passed your tests, although not eligible to be nad by the King himself, you will let your mana chose your na for you," She said.
'Oh, that's interesting! So they will also get their nas, I'm almost reluctant to stop calling them by their nicknas though,' I inwardly chuckled at that thought.
"Reach out to your respective elent, listen to the stream of mana and let it reveal to you your na," Said mother, which honestly confused to no end. 'Reach out to the stream mana? Let it reveal your na?' Although I was confused, my siblings seed to know what they had to do.
They all closed their eyes in concentration as they reached out to their respective elents, I could feel the waves of mana surrounding them. It was a different feeling than what I was usually used to, It felt more conscious like I was in the presence of an actual being.
The first to start glowing was White, her red eyes suddenly shot open as she glanced at mother and then back at before she opened her mouth and revealed her na. "My na is Immy," She announced.
Just then Blacky's body was abruptly shrouded in a dark mist that appeared and quickly disappeared as fast as it ca. His eye fluttered open with a dangerous glint passing through it as he spoke. "My na is Sidus!" He said as he turned to look at , almost as if telling to not forget. I simply smiled and nodded.
Golden boy was next, once his eyes opened, he glanced around in confusion as if he did not recognize the place he was in for a few seconds before he finally seed to co back to his senses. His gaze was sowhat downcast as he declared in a deep voice. "My na is Ynos,"
Mother nodded as all eyes turned towards our youngest sibling who still had her eyes closed, I could vaguely sense a sentient presence surrounding her as her body glowed in a gentle green color, her eyes then shot open as they seed to sparkle before she spoke for the first ti, her sweet voice was like a caress of a rose petal.
"My na is Essie!" She proudly declared while puffing her little chest and raising her head high. I couldn't help the wide smile that ford on my face as I looked at her. I could sense that my mother was quite pleased as well as she gave one of her rare smiles as well.
She looked at every one of us starting with White as she spoke. "Immy, Sidus, Ynos, little Essie..." Her gaze fell on last as she continued. "And Aether, my na is Iver," She said with a gentle smile, I rolled the nas in my tongue for a while committing them to mory, although I liked the nicknas, I had to admit their nas all sounded very impressive.
