"It's truly dawned on me that 'many' years had indeed passed since our adventuring days.."
"If I remember correctly every time we encountered Aldra of all people on Bradley's 'many' adventures she would have at least given him a smack or maybe two with every 'other' encounter?"
"To see her as a mother is seeing her in a new light I suppose? Anyways from what you just told me.. both you and Bradley 'willingly' wrote a list.. o-of sorts?"
"And the part about quickly giving the two lists to Aldra's mother of all people.. Bromley I'd hate to ask you this but it feels as if I haven't been told many things? Start from the beginning!"
Colin surprisingly asked causing Bromley to then helplessly nod before then finally telling him everything surprising Colin causing him then helplessly shake his head.
"I never would have thought of researching anything other than magic.. however a Dragoness and a Serpent? Bradley has a 'cultured' taste if any.. I suppose the Dragoness part occurred when I and Bradley snuck into The Draconian Empire"
"I thought both of us were searching for new magic.. It appears I was wrong, those dragonesses are indeed beautiful.."
"However, I was entirely focused on searching for new magic and learning the Dragon Language for the use of spells to pay attention to such things!"
Colin helplessly explained causing Bromley to then freeze before then helplessly nodding once more as well.
'Why couldn't you two have mentioned this to me back then? Am I not your brother?'
Bromley tearily thought causing Colin after noticing this to then guilty nod.
'I've truly robbed brother Bromley of the experiences of experiencing new magic..'
Colin guilty thought before then remembering something.
"I do occasionally receive a letter or two from a certain Dragoness Admirer who just so happened to also be my instructor.."
"However she looked to be far too young at the time, so I thought it was just a simple crush at the time, in any case enough about me!"
"I haven't paid too much to such things as 'Idol' Groups? So I assume Bradley would've won a reward for 'impregnating' all three? Is it new magic?!"
"I wonder.. would that certain Dragoness give me new magic if I decided to return her feelings? I should ask her!"
Colin excitedly asked causing Bromley to then almost vomit blood.
All the while causing one female Librarian who was showing a young female mage from one of the many Mage Legions around to then helplessly shake her causing the young female mage to then adorably blush after having heard some of it.
All the while Colin had already prepared an elegantly written letter before then gently slipping it into an elegant celestial golden envelope before then remembering something causing him to then freeze.
Before then lazily opening up a small spatial gate before then tossing it into it surprising Bromley and several mages nearby, all the while.. somewhere in The Draconian Empire.
A certain Dragoness was sitting on her Black Dragon-influenced throneroom lazily sitting on ominously black obsidian and mithril throne causing her to then look up before then noticing a golden letter falling on top of her head.
Surprising her causing her to then playfully frown before then noticing the magic seal causing her to then happily smile before then quickly opening it and reading several lines causing her to then both immediately and surprisingly blush.
Before then excitedly nodding, all the while this was happening Bromley couldn't help but helplessly shake his head once more.
"It seems brother Colin hasn't changed a bit-"
Bromley helplessly confessed before then being cut off causing a small black ominous spatial gate to then appear above Colin causing him to then curiously look up.
All while a small black envelope had soo fallen into his hands causing him to then gently open it before then reading the contents surprising him causing him to then curiously freeze before then quickly frowning.
"She says and I 'quote', stop with your insignificant little bookkeeping and come 'warm' my bed.. then and only then will I show you the new magic you 'desire'.."
"However, before that, we will wed and you will plant your seed in me and become my King and forever partner?"
Colin surprisingly read causing Bromley to then freeze before then noticing a strange black obsidian insignia causing him to then feel a chill down his spine.
Before then quickly looking to Colin with an amazingly terrified expression.
"Princess.. or should I say, Queen Gora Claret? The granddaughter of the Black Dragon of Destruction and an Imperial Princess of The Draconian Empire daughter of The First Empress of The Draconian Empire.."
"Colin.. you're a brother to me, so it pains me to ask this but.. how did you even meet such a person?! Her mother named her after what she liked to do best.. and she became renowned for it! How is it possible that you're still alive?!"
Bromley surprisingly asked causing Colin to then curiously think for a moment before then remembering something all the while Kethryllia had quietly appeared behind both.
Causing Colin to then nod.
"Apparently while I was collecting herbs and searching for new magic I stumbled upon a little girl around the same age as Octavia I believe? In any case, she was heavily injured and surrounded by several dragons.."
"Then I realized something.. I didn't in fact know where I was! So I simply asked those Dragons and they told me something in the lines of.. not being able to allow me to live even if I was a celestial?"
"So of course, I took the opportunity of them still being in their Dragon Forms!"
Colin happily explained surprising Bromley to no end before then quickly continuing.
"And after quickly putting them down I began replenishing my Dragon Blood Ink supply! Soon enough the little girl soon limped over before then helping me fill my bottles of Dragon Blood"
"Then she started talking to me and even gave me the idea of skinning them and collecting their heart, bones, and etc surprising me on how resourceful this little girl was! Then w-"
Colin surprisingly explained.
"Wai-Wait.. I think I understand now, but Colin.. why didn't you even consider saving he-"
Bromley curiously asked before then quickly being cut off himself.
"You know it's rude to interrupt people.. and why would I? She was fully capable of saving herself, I myself wouldn't have thought about laying an ambush for my ambushers.. In any case, she hid her strength quite well!"
"However it turns out one of the ambushing Dragons was still in fact 'alive' and reverted to its original form, it was another little girl of all things.."
"And she had immediately wanted to kill her, but I couldn't just stand by and allow children to fight to the death could I?"
Colin helplessly asked surprising Bromley even more.
"So I intervened.. the little girl involved in the ambush was then exiled or rather unofficially so. I believe I decided to send her through a spatial gate to your mother. I think she, Annie, and Amber should still be good friends?"
"In any case, after she went through the spatial gate I finished collecting my magic materials! With the help of the other little girl whose name I had soon learned to be Princess Gora.."
"And fortunately enough she had soon informed me that the other Dragons that I had previously slain were all men excluding the sole survivor of course, which brought me great relief. Right! I'm going off-topic, aren't I? So back to Princess Gora"
Colin explained even more causing Bromley to then hesitantly shiver before then helplessly nodding causing Kethryllia to then quietly shake her head.
"In all honesty, I had no clue who she was, so when she offered to be my instructor and teach me new magic, her language, and the best place to collect herbs then I had immediately accepted!"
"Afterwards she took me to this strange palace where I had then met Bradley who I had already gotten separated from"
"And from what I could tell his 'instructor' Princess Nuri I believe may have taught him, even more, telling by his proud expression at the time.. but brother Bradley never did care to share what he had learned"
"Unfortunately, saying something in the lines of my mind has yet to discover such pleasures? I had no idea what he meant by that though.. so that should about explain everything I believe?"
Colin curiously confessed causing Bromley to then freeze once more before then helplessly nodding causing Kethryllia to then gently shake her head.
"I believe so, and Colin thank you for your dedication to magic, I believe you've gained much more from that experience than Bradley did at the time, so you needn't worry so much, 'especially' now"
"I'd also 'imagine' Queen Gora is quite serious about her offer so I wouldn't 'recommend' holding off on your response for too long, she may indeed have the 'new' magic you seek"
"However your choices are your own so I wouldn't dare assume what's best for you"
Kethryllia reassured causing Colin to then helplessly nod all the while Bromley couldn't help but feel a cold chill down his spine having not noticed her earlier.
After Kethryllia's sudden appearance Bromley couldn't help but helplessly shake his head all the while both the young prince and Aldra felt a familiar presence before then quickly and adorably looking behind them.
Causing the young prince after noticing Kethryllia to then happily smile before then placing down the strange book causing him to then adorably kiss Aldra's cheek surprising her.
Before then excitedly rushing to Kethryllia causing Aldra to then gently pout all the while causing Kethryllia after noticing this to then playfully shake her head.
Moments later after the young prince adorably and quietly rushed over he had soon breathed a sigh of relief after not having felt 'too' much pain causing him to then adorably remember something else.
Before then excitedly hugging Kethryllia causing her to then gently shake her head once more.
"I-I missed mom-mommy Kethryllia.. I-I'm sorry I didn't see momm-mommy Kethryllia!"
The young prince lovingly confessed surprising Kethryllia causing her to then gently kiss the young prince's forehead causing him to then happily hug her even tighter.
After the hugs had finished Kethryllia had soon joined the others and helped them with their magic research surprising some, all the while after what felt like another hour of magic research everyone had soon returned to the infirmary.
Causing the young prince to then adorably pout all the while causing Kethryllia to then surprisingly pull several Elven magic books out of her space ring in the hopes of appeasing the young prince's thirst for magic knowledge.
Before then remembering something else causing her to then quickly leave after saying her goodbyes causing the young prince to then adorably pout, moments later the young prince had then sleepily crawled into Octavia's lap surprising her.
Causing Octavia to then playfully pout before then flicking his forehead causing him to then adorably pout before then adorably setting the books and righteously cuddling her surprising her even more.
Causing both Iris and Elisabet to then adorably follow the young prince's example causing Octavia to then playfully frown before then adorably looking to Aldra, Devyn, Kethryllia, and Marjorie.
