"I think training won't be so useful for you anymore, there is sothing missing that is blocking your growth as a Dragon, I believe that at so point you will get there, so don't worry." (Arash)
"..." (I)
cough cough
"Let help you." (Vanessa)
"Let him take care of himself, you're in the middle of your training." (Natasha)
I was lying in a pool of my own blood, just like at the end of most of my training with Arash, that bastard uses training as an excuse to beat up.
Vanessa tries to co heal , but she herself has been training with my sister to improve her healing capabilities, I suggested this knowing that she has been giving less and less focus on the Auge once was her specialty, and she can't let one of her specialties drop so much just being focused on sothing else.
After so ti waiting for the pieces of my bones to co together and my wounds to close, I drink a barrel of blood as I walk around holding my head which has taken many blows today.
Without realizing it, I arrived at the place where Karina has been spending most of her ti, a Temple to the Dragon God that is inside the Castle of Dragons, there were many other Dragonewts and Dragons in that place, but I could tell that they respected Karina by their looks.
I don't know how I ended up here just walking aimlessly, but I knew it had sothing to do with Karina and that's why I went to her.
"Sothing wrong?" (I)
"..." (Karina)
"Karina!" (I)
"Huhhh!?" (Karina)
She seed distracted looking at her hands, her eyes seed to be locked on an image in her mind, she didn't notice when I approached or called her, only when I used my Aura in my voice when calling her na did she respond with so reaction.
"Sorry, I hadn't seen you, but I'm glad you're here." (Karina)
She starts to pull to a hall on the second floor where there was a mural of a Dragon bigger than a planet, whose body couldn't be completely seen, it was an incredible painting.
"Why did you bring here?" (I)
"I just didn't want people eavesdropping on our conversations." (Karina)
Karina pulls out the bandage sphere full of Runes where the power of the Dragons of Light was stored, I'm surprised that it's the sa way I left it when I gave it to her, I thought she was already trying to create the Dragon Seal.
When I looked at her face I noticed that she was despondent before she started to speak.
"I'm sorry to say this, but it's impossible for to do what you asked, the amount of power here is enough for a thousand Dragon Seals, I don't have enough power to do what you asked." (Karina)
"If you don't get it that's fine, you don't have to be upset about it." (I)
"If I try hard, I might be able to create a Dragon Seal with the equivalent power of 50, but that would be the maximum and I'm not even sure I could do it." (Karina)
"It would also need large amounts of Holy Power, Aura, and Authority from you for that." (Karina)
"50... I think we can round this number... let's do it like this..." (I)
--------------
That night I arrived being carried by Irius to my quarters, Irina ca carrying Karina who unlike was unconscious from exhaustion, otherwise she is perfectly fine.
As soon as I hit my bed I wanted to surrender to the arms of the Goddess of dreams, I was having trouble even keeping my eyes open, but unfortunately, there were things that needed to be done before surrendering to sleep.
"Who are you? Why are you in my room?" (I)
"[I'm surprised you noticed, it looks like I need to improve concealnt magic.]"
Suddenly space begins to ripple in one corner of the ceiling, then a cylindrical crystal with several magic circle grooves appears emitting a male voice.
I was lying on my bed and dragged my body a little to lie back as if I were sitting, but besides that, all my Familiars were already on standby, Orion was inside my body since Irius went to get to help with my recovery, Hinata was inside the bone necklace ditating like she's been doing every night, Layla is hiding in space just like this Crystal was doing before, Sakura is in plant form in the big potted plant by the window, Nix is inside my shadow to take a look at the pod and Ragnar is on the other side of the wall.
I started to share my senses with all of them as soon as I entered the room and I felt this presence hide folding the space around them in an unnatural way, they are all seeing and hearing the sa things as I am, they are all prepared to attack or defend necessary case.
I myself am already ready to fire up several skills with the first being limit overcoming to ignore my fatigue and manage to activate many other skills in sets for a quick attack.
"Answer quickly, I'm a little tired as you can see and I need to sleep." (I)
"[I'm sorry, I didn't an to interrupt you, I was just curious when I heard about a new Primordial Dragon.]"
"You still haven't answered my question." (I)
I activated my Aura and Authority at the sa ti spreading it across the entire room to a point where I could almost instantly activate a Territory.
"[I'm just soone from Border Town, you can call Orsel.]"
"[This is just an Investigation Golem that I tend to use as a convenient ans of communication.]" (Orsel)
"I could be polite and say it's nice to et you, but that's not a good way to introduce yourself." (I)
"[I am surprised by your calmness, but from the murderous intent being picked up from so many directions I imagine your companions are ready to destroy my Golem at your command.]" (Orsel)
"Why are you here?" (I)
"[I already said, I'm just checking you out, I didn't plan on doing anything, I didn't even know you until yesterday.]" (Orsel)
One of the reasons I keep questioning him is where we are, if I was able to spot him hiding while still being exhausted, then there's no way the other Dragon Kings or Arash himself being the Dragon Emperor let this thing go unnoticed.
There are only two options, the first being that they noticed and allowed it, which turns out to be an ally or friend, the second option would be a dangerous enemy who revealed himself to on purpose in order to make it seem like I found him on my own.
The second option is too risky and if it's the right one there's not much I can do, so I prefer to believe in the first option since it's the only one I would be able to do sothing about.
"Why would I be of interest to you? Are you a Dragon too?" (I)
"[No, I'm Human, but it's not just about being a Dragon, it's about your specific race.]" (Orsel)
"[The truth is, I am thinking of hiring your services if possible.]" (Orsel)
"..." (I)
"[I know I might seem too suspicious to you, this eting might be a little intrusive, so I will withdraw and we can talk tomorrow with the Dragon Emperor present if you wish.]" (Orsel)
"I can, but before you go, haven't I heard where you're from?" (I)
"[I already told you where I'm from.]" (Orsel)
"I've heard it's a border town, but you still haven't told which Kingdom or Empire." (I)
"[I see, it seems there was a misunderstanding, what I ant was that I am from a place called Frontier City, that is the na of the city and it does not belong to any Kingdom or Empire.]" (Orsel)
"[This is a normal mix-up, I can explain better next day, so see you tomorrow sir]" (Orsel)
"Call Zenos." (I)
"[I apologize for this small event that was clearly troubleso for you, I hope you have a good rest until our next eting.]" (Orsel)
After saying all this space began to ripple and I feel a tunnel form sowhere when the strange Golem disappears as if sinking into these ripples, soon space is back to normal.
I was thinking about everything he said, but there was little I could do now, I gave so commands to my Familiars before letting sleep take my conscience.
-------------
The next day I woke up feeling great, my power was almost completely back, and I had other things to do, but first I need to talk to the others and go to Arash to talk about yesterday's intruder.
As soon as I spoke with my Familiars, Ragnar told that he didn't find the said city on the maps we have of that continent or any we've passed through.
None of the others found out anything about the person's na, but it seems that Sakura talked to Nicole about the Golem we saw, hence my daughter's interest in the subject.
After finding out what little information my Familiars managed to find out, it was better than nothing.
Now I talk to everyone where I'm going, I wanted to talk to my sisters, maybe they know sothing, but since I can't find them, I went after Arash as I planned to ask about my last "visitor" from the night before.
