Chapter Text

It was a sunny afternoon on the Eastern continent when this story began. Fate started to change little by little on this word of magic. Beast people, humans, and dragons. The story would take a turn by the mistake made by a certain god and the influence of the life and the will of the residents of this world. Unlike in other worlds and realities, the people would change the story and live as they want for the love and their own decision to protect.

.- Haaa~ I'm so tired, I just want to soak in my tub for the next hundred years.- Said a green-haired elf while walking through the forest. Some weeks ago, He started to notice the decrease of the monsters of the Leeb-An mountain and well He is a curious being, so He went to investigate. While passing through a near village, he found out that not only monsters started to disappear. The humans living near that area were missing in such a way that the green dragon suspected something was going on. It wasn't something like the demon raze, He could tell that much because there hadn't been any divine message. While exploring using his attribute, he found the Grey Eye Lake.

Oliene was exhausted, He didn't want to admit it, but when he had found that creepy lake he had goosebumps. He had found a strong ancient power, but as a Dragon, he could not really take it nor destroy it. And that divine feeling he had made him put a barrier on that place. It was better if no one entered that section of the mountain. He had found a letter of resignation(?). He has always been someone who loved to read all the books He could find on both continents, he had a theory of what it meant, but He would first relax for a few weeks before expending some time on his favorite study investigating all the interesting things he found on this little travel.

But at the same time, He couldn't stop thinking about the time and energy He had to spend to take care of the situation on Leeb-An.- I know that I'm an amazing and mighty being, but even I just want to have a peaceful and relaxing life, haa~ at least I found these interesting salts at that village.- said the dragon while looking at the colorful powder and leaves that made him remember that golden old man. Laughing, he saved the little bag in his dimensional pocket and kept walking towards his lair. At least he got something good out of his little travel.

When he was a few meters away from the entrance, he was able to hear the commotion inside. What. Getting furious because someone dared to enter his lair, the green dragon transformed into his true form and dashed forward.- Who dares trespass my territory! .- The strong voice and the fear it caused made most of the people inside start to tremble because of the sudden wave of Dragon fear and the feeling of oppression that was caused by the presence of the emperor of nature and mana. Their liege had told them to search for useful things and destroy everything else inside that place while they waited for the return of the owner of this lair, but following those orders started the anger of an ancient dragon. The oldest of the Eastern continent and the strongest creature aside from the gods.

The dragon didn't let them even answer when He started to attack. The weakest of them started to fall unconscious because of the presence and the rush of mana, while the remanding was attacked by said dragon in a scary fast way. The screams were making an echo inside the lair as the dragon killed them and throw them away outside his lair. 

While the green dragon was eradicating the intruders, a person suddenly started to laugh while his subordinates were imploring for his help.- So that's the oldest dragon on the continent.- commented a brown-haired man with a white mask while smiling. A lion by his left side and a bear by his right side were trying to keep a blank face while watching the dragon turn around towards them and look murderous while hearing their liege laugh. He was furious but was not someone that could be fooled that easily by appearances alone. He could see that they were the strongest of the people that dared to enter his lair and he deduced that the guy that was one step in front of the beast people even being a human was their leader.

.- What are you doing here, bear, lion, and ...weird human? .- Olienne could sense nature coming from the human body. Three ancient powers are owned by the brown-haired man. He looked in his 30s or 40s years old man and he could also tell that he possesses ancient powers of Water and Fire elements, ...and something else that feels familiar yet not.  It was not a natural thing. He is a dangerous man.

The masked man smirked.- I'm here to take your heart-. The smile turned even crazier. Both of his companions just took a step back trying to put some distance from the crazy man.

Olienne stayed blank-faced, but he started to remember one of the conversations He had with the golden dragon.

Chapter Text

In another continent a few hours later after the terrible event in the cave, a beautiful creature was sleeping peacefully in his bed. The golden creature was laying on his silk sheets and enjoying this peaceful day when something hit him in the head, waking him up out of his slumber.

.- What was that?-. Said a baritone voice.-. Hmm.- a golden-haired elf(?) appeared in the place where the golden dragon has been sleeping. He walked towards the objects that fell on the floor of his bedroom. He could sense Olienne´s mana on them, it seems like he had used a spell to send him something...Weird.

.-Why did he send this? It has been a few decades since the last time I saw him-. Opening the book, he realized that it was a diary. He frowned while looking at the dark green book con his hands-./Something is wrong/.- The records of a dragon are the most precious thing one could have, they wouldn't throw them away like that. He looked at the other object in his hand and infused some mana into it. It was a recording device. His frown deepened, and he keeps looking at the records send to him.

.-/*Aren't you supposed to be extinct?!*/ it was Olienne´s voice. He could not see him because he was the one recording all and the angle was pointing toward another person. Some distance away, there was a brown-haired man using a water wall as a shield to cover the dragon's attacks. He could hear his friend's pants as he was getting tired. /What is he talking about? Extinct?/

-/* HAHAHAAHAH You are interesting! I have not been this tired since the fight with the old hag!*/responds the man while destroying the roots and branches that the green dragon keeps sending his way with another ancient power.

Olienne.-/*Who are you talki.. You know what? I don't care anymore!/* Olienne sounded tired and annoyed. This was not good. Eruhaben knows his friend. Olienne is not a fool and even if He got furious and attacked before thinking he would be able to analyze the situation and act in accord with it. He is strong but lazy, so it makes sense.

.-/hey/.- Eruhaben put attention, he realized that Olienne was talking to him and not to the man because he talked very low. /I'm about to lose, ha~ a dragon admitting his loss... Well, whatever/- He evaded an attack thrown his way and used his attribute one more time -/ This f***er is a slayer be careful Haben .. huff huff... oh
your golden glass is in my tub.- the record ended.

Silence

Then a sudden mana wave was felt by all the living beings around Mount Yellia. Birds flew away, animals and monsters ran as fast as they could while the people started to pray being scared of the sudden pressure felt by the entire village and the elves kneeled paying respect to the estimated being and hoping to see the golden dragon.

Calming down and exhaling, Eruhaben looked at the diary and the recording device in his hands one more time, and then stored the objects given by his friend with care. Looking around his lair and gaining some peace, he used his mana to transport to the green dragon's lair. There wasn't any time to lose.

When the golden dragon arrived on the eastern continent, he could see that he had arrived late. He entered his old friend's lair with some caution and watched his favorite sculptures that Olienne hoarded and loved destroyed by the battle that took place a few hours ago, there were other things on the floor, broken glasses, destroyed doors, broken walls, and a lot more of his friend's possessions that just keep increasing his anger. As a dragon, he knows how important is a lair for another one. They worked since they were kids on them, and most started to build their own homes at 2 years old. And being in Olienne's destroyed lair made him feel furious. Angry because he knows how much he has worked on it, a little sad because he also enjoyed the view of the little garden with statues that the younger dragon had built inside his lair. The green dragon was a lazy dragon, he was a weird dragon who was different from others because he preferred to be "weak" and use his time on sleeping, gaining new things, decorating his lair, taking care of his plants, soaking in his tub, and learning new things that can make his life easier.

Yes, Olienne was a weird dragon, a prideful dragon, but not someone who would lose his time fighting for his pride or honor in exchange for his energy. That's why he is a good talker, he fights with words, but when he knows that something is serious you will be able to see why he is an ancient dragon. Someone who has lived for a long time. He is strong, and could be stronger, but doesn't want to. That's why he liked that green idiot.

The first time both dragons meet, the golden dragon was very confused by his attitude. At that time, the younger dragon was really bored and had taken a stroll from the eastern continent all the way to the western. Yes. He is lazy, but when you have magic and a convenient attribute that could be used as a transportation method even more effective than a carriage, well it makes life easier. Maybe that is why he is so lazy.

That day Olienne walked through his territory. Even if was kind of embarrassing to admit it. He used to be a little bit more aggressive in the past. He loved to fight and cause destruction with his attribute, maybe because he wanted to demonstrate how much he liked his dust attribute and hated to be underestimated.

Eruhaben had attacked the green-haired and the other had been annoyed by this sudden problem. He had been enjoying the peaceful scenery on the base of the mountain and even if he was suspicious about all the snow covering the place, he was happy with the new panorama. It's better if you ignore all the problematic things around you and enjoy things around you.

After a few hours of fighting and being tired and annoyed, Olienne decided that He didn't care anymore. He had some blood on his lip thanks to the savage dragon in front of him.- Why did you attack me, you beast!?

.-Why? You transposed my territory!

.- And what?! Did I break anything? Did I go to your lair and steal all your treasures? .- Well, he has a point... it was kind of embarrassing-. Did I say something to you? You are just a crazy dragon who likes to fight, I am a lazy dragon and I don't care about this stupid fight.- He let himself fall backward, and surprising Eruhaben who has fallen with him.

.-...What are you doing?

.- I am sleeping. If you want to attack do it. I don't care. You are just too wild and crazy and I don't want to waste my energy.- He closed his eyes and turned to his side throwing the other dragon to the grass by accident. Eruhaben was looking at his with a surprised expression and stayed silent while hearing the low complaints of the other one.

At the end of the day. Both dragons had ended as friends? At least they were able to have a peaceful conversation after the disaster of the first impression they had. After that, the green dragon would visit him every few decades to steal some of his gold and the other one would act as if he didn't notice because every time the other one steals something he would use his attribute to leave a little green space in that snow-covered mountain.

Eruhaben exhaled and averted his gaze. /*There is no time to waste*/ He continued walking and searching for the younger dragon. He could sense his mana, they had left the place just not too long ago.- tch -. he keep walking around and looking for the place where they had used teleportation magic to see if he could track them.

While looking around, he could feel the rest of nature. He was getting even more exasperated as the place was a disaster. The group that attacked Olienne was organized. They had been prepared for this raid. He exhaled and tried to relax to keep looking for clues to find Olienne.

Chapter Text

.-/ Agh! That hurts /-. The Lion King had thrown the already hurt dragon into a cell that was... In a weird cave? He wasn't sure he was a little dizzy because of all the blood he lost while fighting. He kind of feels bad for worrying Haben, but he is pretty sure he will die. The weird thing was, Why would they take him with them? He thought that the slayer would eat him because he wanted to be stronger, but when he woke up, he was being carried by the lion.

While passing through, He was able to hear them mention a mana-restricting collar, and that was not good for him. He was pretty sure that they wanted to put it on him. That's why the moment He realized that would happen, He started his little act and stayed still as he was knocked out. They were really dumb for not using the collar from the start. 

You see, there was a reason that Eruhaben liked to have those little sparring matches with him. They have an agreement where the oldest would give him something of his lair if the other accepted a match. Eruhaben was entertained by how clever and witty the other could be while fighting. Olienne was prideful but also really sly and would try to gain more out of the least effort he could put into those matches.

While paying attention to his surroundings, he took a little magic stone out of his dimensional pocket slowly and put it inside his mouth. The good thing is that he doesn't need to move too much, even with the rope on his wrists and ankles, but it also hurts because he has some burns on his arms and he can feel some broken ribs. Sighing, carefully, He hid the stone and started to work on the next one.

He kept hiding little stones all around his body. Rings, collars, earrings, and also as decoration on his clothes, He continued hiding little magic stones and at the end, he used his mana to disguise an activation circle as a tattoo over both of his hands. It took him some time to be able to hide the best quality magic stones he owned that weren't too big, but they were the only option He had right now. If He tried to cause and scene, He was pretty sure that now that they were on the enemy's territory and He would be recaptured easily.

./ This is the best I can do right now/* he thought while exhaling. He could hear some steps outside, and they were getting closer. Some dark mages entered the cell, following the brown-haired man from before. Said man kicked him on the side to "wake him up" .- Hey, move!

Groaning, Olienne opened his eyes to send a glare to the man who dared kick him. Can't He at least pay some respect?! The mages from behind the man cowered in fear. They might be dark mages, but they still respected or feared the dragons. Dragon fear could be felt by everyone after the kick and at once all the mages fell to their knees while the brown-haired man scoffed and took him by his hair, making him look at his eyes.- You still are a feisty one, aren't you?-. He dropped him and turned around to see the mages and started giving orders.

.- Put that damn collar on him and take him to the room with the dragon's eggs.- That caught the dragon's attention. Eggs? Like real dragon's eggs? He frowned, /this is not good/ .-. How can all of you be so incompetent that you left a dragon alone and used just some ropes?! -. Olienne was getting anxious. He could escape by himself, but it would be extremely difficult if he wanted to save the eggs. But there wasn't too much He could do at the moment. He has to wait and observe before taking action.

The masked man laughed and talked again.- Also, bring the half-blood to that place too. He will eat today.

.- Yes, my liege-. Responded the group while cowering in fear. They watched him leave in silence, and just after they couldn't hear him they were able to breathe again, but they still had to endure a terrifying and intimidating behind them. Scared, they turned to see the now sitting dragon. They could see that it would take some time before they were able to bring him with them and put on the collar.

The mage looked at each other in fright. This would be hard.

5 Hours later, two mages covered in blood were carrying a hurt dragon into another room. They had been a group of 12 dark mages entrusted to put the collar on an ancient dragon, and in the end, just two of them survived the task. Olienne was pretty beaten up, but he still had a smirk on his handsome face while feeling the trembling hands that were dragging him into the hallway of the base. He keeps looking around for possible escape routes and the best timing to start his escape plan.

When they arrived at the next room, they let him fall to the floor and moved away really fast. They don't want to be in contact with that scary being.

Olienne groaned when he fell on his knees and slowly straightened to be able to look at his surroundings, but he was shocked when he saw what was in front of him. He has two dragon eggs in front of him. A red one that was bigger than the regular size and a black one that looked smaller and a bit weaker than the other one, but he could still pensive the abnormal amount of mana on both of them.

.- How the hell did you get your hands on those eggs!?-. He trashed around, making the dark mages move further away from him-. Why do you have them!-. He was furious! Like Eruhaben, he was someone who cared in his own way for the younger dragons. Haben was the one who helped him out on his second growing phase all those years ago. When other dragons laughed at him for being "weak" the golden dragon got into fights for him. In return, He destroyed the lairs of the dragons that made fun of his friend attribute.

The dark mages started to tremble and were about to leave the room when the door opened once again and the same masked man entered followed by a cowering man? he could sense something way too familiar coming from him. When he took his hood he realized why. It was a young-looking man with scales on different parts of his body. But what shocked him the most was his colors.

Did he lock kinda green? Gray? Olienne started to growl in the masked man direction. .- What did you do!?-. the other one smirked-. I am the only green dragon, there could never exist another dragon of the same color. What kind of sick experiment did you do to that kid to make him like that!? The young man cowered in fear when he heard his "father" laugh at what the dragon said. .- What else if not that I am turning him into a dragon .- he turned to see at the half-blood and put a hand on his head-. he has already eaten three dragons-. that gave the chills to the rest of the occupants of the room.

The young man keeps trembling while feeling the hand on his head. It felt so oppressive and as it was heavy as a mountain. Olienne gritted his teeth and looked and the half-blood, no, the chimera. He didn't know what to feel. As a dragon, the half-blood was something that wasn't natural, someone that made his kind seem weak. But as Olienne he kind of feels bad for the kid. He could see the fear on his face while he looked at the man and when the guy put his hand on his head as if He was a propiety or a pet.- Today we are going to try the experiment-. the man started to talk again while looking at the black mages.- We´ll make the eggs hatch.

Silence.

All of the people present felt as if he had thrown ice water at them.

.-WHAT!!!!! HOW DARE YOU DO THAT TO THE EGGS OF A DRAGON YOU DAMN CRAZY HUMAN!-.

The dragon's fear was felt by everyone and they had to evade an attack made by the green dragon. Olienne lost all his cool and started traching around breaking the wall behind him. The handcuffs that they put on him were cutting his wrists but he still kept trying to get free so he could attack once again the b*****d in front of him. A big dominating feeling suddenly felt by the dragon made him stop for a moment. Then he looked at the man infront of him. /*So that's why the slayers don't cower at the dragon's fear*/ He was getting even more worried.

He had sent the message to Haben thinking it would arrive at his lair a few hours after he was taken but he started to get worried for his safety .- Shut up lizard, it doesn't matter to me what its going to happen to those eggs. Even if the experiment fails on the red egg I still have the other one, haha even then your heart will be eaten by the half-blood.- he said while approaching the dragon and taking his chin-. Well, at least you were more entertaining than the last two dragons. The blue dragon was way too prideful and he didn't last more than an hour. At least he was useful for my future plans and is being used to gain that valuable material we need hahahahah.- My liege-. the bear from before arrived being followed by a man covered with a robe and a few black mages.- We are prepared to start. The leader stands up.- Perfect, start with the red egg.

Chapter Text

Olienne could see the subordinates of that man carrying big bottles with a weird liquid inside and another recipient with something that he had never seen in his 758 years of life. He started to get even more nervous when he saw the chimera start to tremble. It seems that he knows what that is and it is something dangerous. He was getting really restless and his instincts were going highwere when one of the subordinates of the man took the red egg and put it in the middle of a recipient.

The egg started to move a little as if it could sense that something bad would happen to it. Even the young man was extarting to feel the need to protect the egg as he could remember the suffering he has been living thanks to the
man, that was smiling while watching the red egg move. The man who calls himself his father.

The man with the robe started to give instructions and Olienne could only scream as he watched them serve some black mana on the recipient. It's just an egg!!! Olienne couldn't put up with the torture occurring before him. But the worst was about to happen when the dragon watched as the man with the robe brought the strange liquid. Some mages came closer and then he realized what was happening. 

AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!

A realize loud scream was heard by everyone when the mages removed a spell from the recipient. It was a noise-cancelling spell. He could only watch and hear in horror as screams were coming from the man holding that liquid. But Olienne paled when he saw him pour the liquid over the red egg.

.- STOOOOOOOOP!!!!! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!.- Olienne was bleeding from all the restrictions that they had put on him, he kept struggling while the other people in that room including the bear and the lion had to make a barrier to stop the green dragon from stopping the man. Olienne watched with desperation as the liquid touched the egg and it started to move even more. He could hear the screams and cries getting even louder as if they were apologizing to the future king of nature. Little by little the red egg started to change as some little lines started to appear on the shell as if they were like the necromancer's marks. The egg trembled as it kept trying to escape and the ancient dragon could only keep attacking the barrier throwing whatever attack he could think of even starting to use a few of the magic stones to strengthen his attacks. He didn't even care anymore about his plan.

The crazy liege started to laugh as he approached the red egg. It was about to happen.

CRACK!

It was as if everything stopped. They saw a crack appear on the shell following the little marks on the shell. The mages were a little bit excited even when they were feeling scared at the presence of the dragon and the robed
alchemist started to laugh as a maniac and then he turned to give the good news to his liege.- My liege! It seems as if it is a success! The red dragon is hatching!

Olienne could only see in despair as those people started to celebrate while he watched a red paw break the eggshell. This was against nature! no dragon should be treated that way, no, no living thing should be treated that horrendous way.

And then the newborn cries started to resonate in the room. The sound traveled was heard while the screams of despair from before kept comming from that dark liquid but in a way they started to sound as if they were crying for the
newborn that keeps crying. 

The red little dragon was hurting. They could only feel pain, he felt lost, and bad memories kept appearing in his mind. 

.-/This is wrong/-.Olienne felt as if something had broken inside him. When he watched as the masked man started to approach the baby and he took him in his hands by the neck and the baby just went limp on his hands he felt as if his sanity finally snapped and his instincts took over his rationality.

A defiting roar was heard by all the occupants of that secret base. Then an explosion was felt and heard by everyone. A dragon was goind bersek. Even if dragons were different to beast people they were living beings, rational beings with feelings that could break.

Breaking the biggest magic stones with his hand near the collar on his neck Olienne was able to break free. The mini explosion was big and strong enough to destroy the collar and in an instant a green dragon appeared in that room the walls and the ceiling fell apart as the dragon attacked everyone. Olienne followed his instincts as he moved towards the brown-haired and took the little dragon and the black egg. Nearly everyone in that room died from the explosion that he caused when he transformed while the stronger people were able to cover but still got thrown back by the pure force of it. The boss was being cured by some of his subordinates because the green dragon had torn his arm from his shoulder to stop him from reaching the newborn. Everyone where in chaos as the beast kept attacking everyone and everything searching for the best timing to escape. This place couldn't be used as a base anymore.

Even while being so hurt and tired Olienne was able to control himself and stopped using his living force. As he had changed to dragon form all the restrictions had been destroyed but he couldn't keep using any more mana for the time being. Using his dragon's breath as a distraction one more time he took another person with him and used his hidden magic stones to activate the spell on his hands.

The enemies were surprised by the sudden spell being cast and tried to stop them but they were only able to watch as the injured dragon snarled at them and used his attribute to block their path and escape.

.- AAAAAAARG! DAMN DRAGONS! What are you waiting for?! Search for him! .- the man stood by himself while his right and left-hand men tried to help him.

.- My liege, you need to cure your em shoulder.- the bear tried to be the voice of reason.

.- My liege, Sayeru is right you are losing a lot of blood really fast, this is dangerous

.- It doesn't matter, even if I don't have time to lose, and even then this life is about to end. Start the preparations.-  He looked at his shoulder one more time and started to walk away while the people moved out of his way in fear.- I'm going to kill that lizard.- he threw angrily one more time and then he was transported to another location.

On a certain lake, a sudden noise breaks the peace of the moment.- Damn that hurts-. said the figure while sitting from his fallen position. Olienne had used his body to protect the egg and the hatchling on his arms. A few meters away another figure fell and then moved faster to look at the creature in front of him.

.-... Why did you take me with you?.- he asked while keeping his guard up in case he had to fight back.

Olienne looked in his direction for a moment and then returned his attention to the egg and the baby dragon. With care, he took the black egg and put it on his spatial dimension. It was not the best but it would keep it protected for
the time being. Then he took a few potions and started to open each of them.- I want to talk-. he keeps opening the bottles.- you feel like a dragon but you are not, you were called by that fool a half-blood but you are not. You wouldn't be alive if that was the case... you are a chimera, no?.

The half-blood dragon's eyes trembled as he heard all this. His... father had told him he would...- yes, I am... My father told me he would make me a dragon...you can tell how no?

Olienne closed his eyes shook his head and turned to pay attention to the little baby. He started to pour the potions and then looked at the other.- Come here and help me.- HB was confused but he moved to help. It feels weird to him but... but it was a nice feeling. Been able to help, been outside. The oldest took more potions and told him to keep applying little by little the potions on the baby's body.

.- He is so small-. Olienne thought with a sad smile on his face. The red dragon had succumbed to unconsciousness since the man had taken him by his neck. He doesn't know what he did but at least the baby was still breathing.- they are the best potions I have and even then they just work a little. tch

HB didn't comment anything about that and kept helping. Then he remembered something.- where are we?

.-On Leeb-An mountain. A few days ago I created a barrier so people would struggle and would not enter this place. We can't stay here more than a day with that crazy man following us.- he watched as the other flinched but kept talking -.We will leave tomorrow after I recover some more.- he drank a potion-. if they were able to track my lair then they would be able to find us if we stayed on this continent. 

HB nodded.- Arm has more power on the eastern continent than on the western. They had a lot of allies and bases here-. he doesn't know why is he helping, he doesn't know why but he follows his instincts and right
now he wants to protect the baby that keeps moving as if he is escaping from something or someone. He had felt too bad when he heard the first cry of the red dragon. Something inside him had awakened and it told him to protect. 
Maybe it was his dragon side? or maybe he still has some humanity inside himself. He doesn't know but he will try to understand. At least he was free from his father and that crown.

.- Hmm then that's good. I know someone that might help us but we are not going to look for him for the time being. If that organization, Arm you said? Has that level of strength and contacts it would be better to create some baits and lose them before searching for his help. I know some elves that would help us if we need something so that would not be a problem. We need to move around a little bit more here in the eastern continent to leave some traces as baits so it would be harder for them.

The HB was shocked. His father had always said some emmm inappropriate things about the dragons but He could see how intelligent the dragon in front of him was. He would follow his instructions. He knows that he has done some really bad things in the past but at the same time, he wants to try and be free. Does he deserve this? He probably doesn't, but he will try to use his time to help the dragon who has helped him even if just to gain information and curiosity.

.-So what's your name?

.- Eh?

.- Why are you so surprised? I only asked for your name.

HB looked at the ground. What does he was supposed to answer? .-...I don't have a name. My f... I mean the White Start said that he would give me a name when I become a real dragon... and yeah although I'm 700 years old I haven't 
gone through my second phrase yet... you can see how messed up I am.

A sudden pressure made the poor guy look up. He was surprised by the reaction.

.-DAMN THAN MAN! I really despise that crazy man! White start? Liege?, whetever you call him. How dare he play with a life like that?!.- Olienne started to rant while the HB blushed a little and some tears appeared. It's the first time
that someone got angry for him and not at him... it feels nice.

Olienne notices his reaction and stopped.-Ahem, stop, I don't do feelings. I'll think about a name for you as a favor from this mighty dragon.- he got embarrassed and started to evade the topic.- Let's go. The hatchling is better now and he fell asleep so we will travel a bit more to different locations I'll do it first and then you and so on. Like this we will create more chaos for them.- he smirked-. ill make them suffer.

HB just shook his head and followed his instructions helping him make a plan of the places they would visit and giving him information about the bases or alies of Arm. When they were prepared they disappeared and both used their magic to travel all around both continents for the rest of the day until both were out of mana ending their travel at the kingdom of boulders.

Chapter Text

.-I don't know what is happening.- was the first thought of the Half-blood dragon as he was looking at the older dragon in front of him. He was looking at all the destruction made by Oliene in the last few minutes since they arrived at their current location. Looking down at the baby in his arms he thought this situation was pretty weird.

I can't believe that we were able to do that hahaha the last few days have been absurd. After all this, I will not move a single finger and I'll hide somewhere with my precious bath... wait. What happened to my precious bathtub?? Noooooo! They probably destroyed it! I HOPE YOU HAVE A REALLY UGLY LIFE WHITE SHIT!.- The green dragon kept screaming while kicking the rocks that were around him. The Dragon half-blood just watched as the older dragon destroyed a few more trees and rocks. The older dragons have been going at it for 42 minutes now. He doesn't even know what to think out of this situation. It's been a whole day since they traveled all around both continents leaving some of their magic traces behind so Arm would have trouble finding them.

He saw the magnitude of the others' magic as he created a whole new forest out of nowhere. Making new possible lairs in so many territories. Even in the cold and poisonous side of the Valley of Despair. Truly, the green dragon is someone that you shouldn't underestimate. He let a small laugh pass throw his lips. Clearly his f- Ehem.- The White Start did that and see what happened? No egg, no newborn dragon, no new heart, and neither the chimera he has been "playing" with for years.- He sighed and looked up realizing that the other had been looking at him for a while.

.- So, what do you want to do? I took you from him and all but I don't want to do a lot of work taking care of you... Not gonna lie. I'm not like other dragons who like to compete for strength or like to be alone all the time like that old man. And even if your situation is not normal for me, as someone who is really sensible to all natural beings I'm no one to judge you or your past. I'm also someone who has principles so if you want to tag along you will need to work for your food.- The HB looked at him in surprise-. After they destroyed my lair I lost a lot of my stuff. I still have my money with me and in other hidden places so that will not be a problem. If you plan to be with us I'll make you be their nanny. Both of us doesn't really know how to take care of a child. Even worse a dragon one, so you will help me take care of them. Maybe between the two of us, they will survive enough time to meet Haben? He will be a better teacher/parent even if he would like to defer. That old man has more experience with kids than me.

Olienne kept on rambling as He started to use his attribute to create some trees and moved to sit under the shade. The dragon half-blood was shocked by every word being said. He looked at the baby dragon in his arms. The red dragon was asleep and breathing slowly. He was glad that the small baby was better after using all the healing potions used on him. Maybe it was some kind of instinct developed by all the experiments done on him or some kind of kindship after watching someone else suffer by that man's orders. Still, He hoped that something like this would never happen again to someone so small even if his fear was still present and the knowledge of the length Arm could and would take to bring all of them back to their liege He had made a decision for the best.

The green dragon smiles as he lies down. It was a good sign if the guy could still smile even if He probably hadn't noticed. It's not a lie that He doesn't know what to do. He looked at his burned arms. Normally He wouldn't care this much, only Haben has received this kind of attention and it is because He doesn't really care for others. Maybe that's why the World Tree wouldn't let the old man visit? Hmmm, maybe that old tree can have some answers for us. 

Looking at the other two He couldn't stop his heart from starting to beat so fast. Maybe all the things He saw before in that cave would leave not only physical scars.

.- That baby is too small-. Through Olienne as he watched the red dragon. He keeps looking at him. The little dragon has some weird marks on his paws and tails, probably because of that liquid that was poured on his shell making him hatch before time was due. -Tch-. another thing that makes him angry.

He sighed as he sat again -. Hey.- the other put attention .- What do you want to do now? Do you accept being their nanny?

The dragon half-blood nodded.- I want to protect them... especially this red dragon... They will come back sooner or later and I want to teach them everything I know and help them have a ... normal life.- he looked into his eyes with confidence.- I'll be their nanny.

.-Pfft!-. The other looked at him in surprise-. Hahaha, I didn't think that you would use that! Hahaha nice! nice! Then you would help me take care of them.- He grinned-. Then let's go. Knowing my friend he would be waiting for us. Well for me hahaha I can't wait to see his face after He discovers our presence in his lair.

.- It is too late to say I was lying...I hope that I will not regret this-. Looking at the baby in his arms he adjusted his arms and hands to make his travel more comfortable.

Raising an eyebrow He looked at the older dragon.- Is your turn isn't it?

.-Yes. ha~ this is the last time I will use my transportation magic I swear! To much travel for someone like me.- As He said that all of them were surrounded by light and disappeared from the small clearance of the forest.
