Chereads / Dragons are OP! / Chapter 11 - Playing with fire

Chapter 11 - Playing with fire

We were currently in the sky. I did not know how the destination looked so I set the teleportation to be one mile from the kingdom. But the altitude could be anything, either normal sea level or high above in th sky, but it couldn't be below the ground. So I kept my flying and invisibility magic ready. I couldn't afford to show my power level to the world.

I also warned them, but they were clueless and just nodded. By the sudden change in location Lumi cried like a child and Amalia seemed to be afraid but did not cry. Emily on the other hand was happy. "We are so high up! I couldn't fly this high even if I used the best potions to increase my mana for a short while."

Once things settled I slowly landed on the ground. Lumi was red as a tomato, maybe she was embarrassed that I saw her cry.

We slowly walked towards the road. I cancelled the Invisibility spell and together we went along the people, appearing as normal travellers. I was using a cloth to cover my face as not to grab attention. The two elves covered their ears so that they appeared as normal humans. Emily was holding my hand, she looked like my daughter, as she was the shortest one.

"Halt!" I heard the voice of a guard. He walked towards me.

"Show your identity" He said.

"I don't have one" I replied.

"You sound suspicious, why are you covering your face?"

"Personal reason"

"Okay, then tell me which kingdom have you come from?" He asked.

"Drafilli" I answered.

"Look sir, you look like an adventurer. So could you please show me your adventurer license?" He said while glancing at my Katana that I kept around my waist.

"I lost it while doing a quest, I came here in order to get a replacement" I had enough knowledge about the adventurer stuff so I could lie easily.

"Seems fine, what about these girls?" he pointed towards Amalia and Lumi.

"She is my wife" I pointed to towards Lumi. "She is her sister" I pointed at Lumi. "And this is my daughter" I looked at Emily. "The two of them want to become adventurers and I have nobody else in Drafilli so I brought my Daughter with me" I said.

"Fine then, when you get back your adventurers license please show it to me or any other guard. Till then, please enjoy your stay" He finally gave way.

I walked past him as we arrived at Magnus. It was not as huge as Drafilli but it was quite large. I saw only humans and no other species. Magnus was truly the Kingdom ruled by humans. Only some other species were seen walking on the street such as Beastials.

Beastials were humanoid creatures that had beast and human like features. They looked like humans that had cat or dog ears.

(A/N: Korone)

They were of lower status than humans so they were constantly abused and discriminated but due to the alliance formed by other species they had to stop doing such things. Eventually they lived in peace but still there were some people who believed that Beastials were lowly creatures.

"Looks like we need to have a word with the king" I said.

"Big brother! did you just call me your daughter" Emily seemed sad.

"You are so small that anyone would think that even if I didn't say."

"So Big brother prefers big ones" She mumbled while looking at Lumi's Plentiful chest.

While Lumi was too happy to see what was happening "W-w-w-w-wife" she was trembling.

"Are you okay?" I tried touching her forehead but Amalia jumped on my arm and stuck to it. Like a Koala. *what's wrong with these girls

I continued walking towards the largest building in sight. On the way I looked at the houses, they were different. They looked like houses from the mideval ages, from my past lifes memories I could remember the history back on earth.

"Excuse me" I asked a man that was standing beside the large building. He looked like a thug, his muscles were big and he looked very tough.

"What is it kiddo?" The man asked. Even if I was not tall enough, I looked like a mid-aged guy with the cloth around my face. Why did he call me a kid. I thought.

[Darling, it's probably because he is a mage, he could live around 300-400 years, so for him normal people are kids. You all are too strong for him to detect your Mana strength so he thinks that you are normal people] Stella said.

"Thanks for the explanation" I said to Stella.

"You gonna say kiddo?" the man asked with a loud voice.

"I just wanted to ask where the castle is"

"Hahahahahaha" he laughed out loud. "What would you do in the castle? Your worth is not even that of a dog"

"Please don't waste my time, if you won't answer then say that you won't." I was not angry in the least. People like this existed everywhere, they try to suppress the weak by showing off their power and cower before the strong. So I just walked past him.

"What did you say, you wasted my time not me. How dare you say that to me huh?" he blocked my way with his arm.

"Please move" I said.

"Only if you pay me all the money you have on you" He smiled.

"I don't carry money"

"That's problematic, hmm.. let me think"

By then the crowd had made a circle around us. "Isn't he Mil? I heard he beat up two guards yesterday" "Who is that man, now he is dead! With him his daughter and the girls will die too, such a shame" people whispered.

"Hmm, since I'm a merciful man I will let you go, but leave these girls here" He gave me a devilish smile.

"I said move" I looked at him and said.

(A/N: Typical wuxia novel villains)

"No" His smile grew wider.

"Sigh" Looks like I have to take action, these type of people are too stubborn.

Moving my hands towards the katana I pulled it out and slashed at his shoulder. Jerking the blood off I put I back in the sheath. The action happened in less then a second, normal people couldn't make out why Mil was not speaking. Suddenly his arm fell off, detached from his body. He started shouting with pain. Blood all over the place.

"Thank you" I said as I walked past him and disappearing into the crowd.

"These humans are too Proud of themselves, what do they think of my brother" Emily said angrily.

"Don't worry, people like those, we shouldn't pay any attention to them." I patted her head.

"Hmm" she nodded.

This time I walked into a normal man "Could you please tell me where the castle is? I just came here and I'm new to this place"

He just looked at me, then nodded as he said.

"It's located at Southern Kiragua. You can buy a map in any shop." he said.

"Thank you" I said, to which he just nodded and left.

Why is everyone's naming sense so bad. I sighed.

"Let's go and buy a map for navigation our way into the castle." We walked over a shop and paid him 2 coppers for the map. It was a pretty good map so following it I just turned them Invisible and flew to Kiragua which was not that far. Arriving in front of the castle we walked into it. I took of the cloth and the elf sisters showed their ears, only Emily did not remove her disguise. The Castle was not much different from our castle in Drafilli. It was just a bit smaller and less flashier.

"Stop right there!" the guards shouted.

I showed them the piece of paper that King Alfred gave me. I guessed that it was a proof of some sort that I had the permission to meet him.

"Please forgive our rudeness, we were not aware." The guard said.

"It's okay" I smiled towards them as we walked in.

For a minute the guards all stopped speaking and gazed in my direction. "Is he a God?" one of them muttered. "I don't think it's wrong to change genders if it's for him" one of them said while the others nodded.

(A/N: Change your gender today)

I walked inside the castle area. One of the servants was along with me, acting as a guide.

Walking around I noticed how different it was. While the structures were different, so were the people and their jobs. But it was different than the memories I had from my previous life. Maybe this was due to the presence of magic, while my previous world did not have something like magic. The labor was much less using magic.

Emily was looking at these humans with eyes that were devoid of emotions, she thought of humans as nothing but a pebble by the roadside. While Lumi was only looking at me frequently, Amalia was still lowering her head down in embarrassment.

"I didn't expect you to come so fast" Alfred spoke as he walked towards me.

"I said it earlier, it's easy for me"

"I hope that you know why I did not inform anyone of your arrival" he said.

"I'm aware of the reason"

"That's good, could you show me what you have learned in this period?" he smiled.

"Of course" I have to set the bar high I thought.

"Let's move on to a more spacious place" Alfred said.

"No need, when one's control over magic reaches a certain point one can control the spread of mana easily" I said, as flames soon covered my right hand.

"The spell cast by a Mage cannot hurt the user if control is good enough, I'm impressed Prince Aaron" Clearly surprised by the control and intensity over fire he looked at me.

"Just a bit more, it's not over yet" Changing the shape of the flames I turned it into a statue of a crown and put it on my head. "This is how magic is used" I said.

"You have truly surpassed your father" he was flabbergasted. 'Does this crown mean that he plans to become the emperor?' Alfred thought to himself.

"Do not worry, I'm not planning anything that is harmful to your kingdom" I assured him.

Having his thoughts caught, he just slightly nodded.

"Let's talk about the Academy and your Accommodation."

"First of all, I'm sure that the place you will be staying is not as good as your original room, but we have tried our best. Second is that, the teachers and even the principal do not know of your identity" He explained.

"It's okay, I'm living over in your kingdom, asking anything more would be rude. About my identity, I think it's better to wear a mask in order to hide it, I don't want my face to be changed, it feels wrong"

"Hahah sure" he smiled, then he turned towards the girls. "I have gotten them enrolled in the Academy as normal students. But you are a special case, the principal will tell you more about it. The Academy that you will be attending to is Red rose academy, it's the best Academy in our Kingdom"

"Thank you for everything"

"Bah! it's fine after all you are going to be a ruler soon, if this old man doesn't treat you nicely you might burn down Magnus in the future. Okay, I think that's it. He will lead you to your stay" he pointed towards a butler as he walked towards me and bowed "My name is Willburt, your Majesty"

"He is the only person besides me that knows of your identity" Knowing what I was going to ask, he answered.

"Let's get going" I said while walking towards the place I was supposed to stay.
