Right let's just get straight into this. So it's finally time to depart for the mainland and the demon empire. Now I've got a surprise which I'm personally happy about.
I've got a pet!
Yeah you heard. A pet. Okay okay I'll explain. So when I say a pet it may be a bit of a push to call it that as when you hear pet you think about a dog or cat right? Weeeellll I instead have a gryphon that has a beautiful set of sliver coloured armour that goes great with its white and black fur, or are they feathers? Doesn't matter you get the idea.
Now you may be wondering where did you get a gryphon Iris? Well I'll tell you. So as you know there are three mountains where the city was built or at least were anyways. It turns out the most left mountain had a small group of gryphons of 15 in number. Gryphons in this world are considered one of the strongest flying mounts one can have along side the wyverns. These are mounts so things like huge dragons don't count. Apparently.
Gryphons however are much harder to tame as they are a naturally very proud race and will only serve those who they acknowledge. They also understand the language that people speak thus making it even harder to get them to acknowledge you.
When I had discovered them I had approached them to gain their acknowledgement and have them serve me and the empire. At first they were acting proud so I had to fight the leader of their group.
It was quite the thrilling fight if I say so. The gryphons have a natural affinity with the wind and lightning element so they are quite the tough opponent. Although I didn't have that much of a problem dealing with them it was still cool seeing a tornado get summoned that also had lightning sparks come from it. I dealt with this though by swinging my halberd fused with lightning power that broke the tornado.
After this happened I had gained the acknowledgement of a slack jawed gryphon. That was quite the sight hehehe. Anyways because of the dominant display of power I was able to get them to agree to serve my empire. Now we have an Air Force division consisting of gryphon riders and eventually, or at least hopefully wyvern riders.
So let's get back on track. Right now me and Sylvie are on a gryphon each and are getting ready to leave. It will take about 3 days of travel to get to the mainland and then another 4 days to get to the demon empire capital. There is another reason as to why we are taking a gryphon to the demon empire other than fast transport and that is because it shows our power. It's like driving a limousine to show off wealth. It's that concept.
We also now have a flag that we are displaying to show that a new power has risen and to allow people to be able to recognise it the next time. The flag consists of the colours red, black, and silver. The flag has a sliver dragon in the middle with a red moon behind it on a black background. The sliver dragon is to represent me with my silver hair and Sylvie as the dragon. The red moon is to represent the vampire race and the fact that we are creatures of the night also shown through the black background. I know some of you may think that a moon is a representation of werewolf's but i think it makes the flag look complete. So leave it at that okay?
Well as of now we have these flags in our city, the colour scheme is on our soldiers uniforms and the badges/emblems are of a silver dragon. These can be seen anywhere and on the gryphons armour that have the sliver dragon engraved somewhere. So with this we have everything we need to represent our empire and get a good relationship with the demon empire.
So without further ado let's go!
-We wish your majesty the best of luck, and miss Sylvie with luck looking after her majesty.
I think I just heard something rude but I'll pretend I didn't hear anything.
-Iris are you ready? We won't be returning for a while so have you had your fill on seeing and talking to everyone?
-Yes I've done everything and I'm ready. To be quite honest I'm even excited. Of course I'll do my work I don't want to be punished. Again.
-Hmmm good. Well then let's go we'll be travelling for about a week and we need to get to the meeting between our two countries the week after we arrive.
-Okay let's go now then. I want to be able to relax and go sightseeing before everything starts.
So with that we set off across the land and over the ocean with the people of the Crimson empire waving us off. It's quite a happy sight to see your people waving you off.
-Oh and Iris I have something to talk about when we arrive. I was meant to pick it up after the battle but you were very busy so I'll talk to you about it once we arrive fufufu.
Errr... okay what's with Sylvie? I know she wanted to talk to me about something but why is she slightly blushing? Oh well I'll find out once we arrive but damn Sylvie looked beautiful with the wind blowing her long blue hair and the blush to her cheeks.
Well I'll talk later once we arrive so I'll see you then. Bye for now!
