I walk out of the shower, water dripping down my body. I grab the towel off of the rack to my left and quickly dry off my hair, then begin with the rest of my body. 'Is this a date? After all, I am eating with her family as well.' I ask myself as I finish drying off. I turn myself into a full Dragonborn and look over my body.
'Three scars, and I doubt that's all I'm going to get.' I look over my body and see the lighter colored scales where I was injured, in both of my knees and my side where the heat blade got stuck.
I quickly revert and grab my clothes off of the stool to the left of the sink. I throw on my underwear and put on a pair of jeans and a t-shirt I found in my drawer which never seems to run out of clothes from what I have seen, and exit the bathroom. I see everyone staring at me as I walk out, Dreag, the princess, and the King. 'How many pieces of royal clothing did they bring?' I ask myself as I see them still in their usual gleaming attire.
I scratch the back of my head and laugh nervously, "What?" Dreag is quick to answer. "I saw you training that girl yesterday." I walk over and sit down on the chair near the couch. "And?" I ask with a hint of anticipation. "And I saw you train her the day before."
I nod, "A bit creepy your stalking me, but ok. Your point teacher?"
Dreag claps his hands, "Her rate of growth is insane, it's either your teaching skills are phenomenal, or she can grasp stuff at a phenomenal speed."
I laugh as I wave it off. "No, it's just that we are training extremely hard. That's it."
Dreag sighs but he seems to not want to let this go. "You are terrible at lying Kurayami, I said I witnessed her growth with my own eyes...could you please get your slime to stop doing that."
I hadn't noticed but Slime Winter had crawled onto my head and was staring at Dreag with intense eyes. I nod and Slime Winter drops down onto my lap with a bloop.
I start to pet him and he closes his eyes while silently purring. "You were saying?"
He sighs as he shakes his head, "Forget it, anyway, here is the item you requested." He tosses a bag at me and I catch it with my free hand. I set it on the seat to my left and somehow maneuver the bag open to make sure they are inside. I then nod and close the bag, putting it in my ring.
"Thank you teacher." I say as I nod towards Dreag. He sighs as we rubs his face.
"Do you know how hard it was to get those at short notice? I had to get the Royal merchant service to get them here at practically god speed." "Sorry." I say while looking down, trying to show my sincerity.
He shakes his head, "No, it's fine, your one of my students after all, I still should be helpful to you, even if I can't teach at this moment." I smile as I look down at my watch, the sun is almost at the halfway mark of it beginning to set.
I stand up while grabbing Slime Winter and putting him on my head. "I must get going, I will be eating with Winter's family tonight." I say as I begin walking towards the door. Dreag waves me off as the King nods, 'I like this type of royalty, taught to act like true royalty and not just a bunch of spoiled brats.' I think as I exit the room, the door closing behind me.
I begin walking down the hall and feel as if I forgot something, then I remember. 'Crap, where are my manners! I need flowers!' I think as I start to panic. 'And I'm in the one place on the planet where flowers can't grow! Fantastic!' I think as I continue to walk down the hall.
Suddenly, I had an idea, I hold my hand out and begin to use absolute darkness (shadow manipulation) along with soul manipulation. The shadows begin to move towards me and a few screeches fill the hall as they flow towards my hand, filling the once empty air with a rose. A rose with a pure white head and a black stem.
'Thank goodness the screeches stop after I am done using it, or else it would be very bad to give as a gift.' I think as I stare at the beautiful rose in my hand. I then begin to walk towards my original destination.
