Lenis left and Richard walked up to her and hugged her from behind.
"So your brother want's to destroy The Snake Clan."
Marika nodded 'But that clan resides in Ignis kingdom, even though we have enough cause to wipe them out, it can cause a strain on our alliance we have with them if we just went there and did that.'
"What are we going to do about tomorrow?"
'Were going, we show them that no matter what they throw at us, we will stand next to each other and fight together.'
Richard kissed her and nodded.
Regina, Nova and Derick arrived with the food.
Marika and Richard sat down and Marika was eating everything that was served to her. Richard on the other hand didn't eat much.
Marika saw it and said 'Choose, I either force it all down your throat or you sit on my lap and eat yourself.'
'Didn't you and dad tell me to eat properly even if I was depressed.'
Richard looked at her, and he obediently started to eat everything.
After Richard was done eating Marika hugged him and patted his head "Good boy."
Marika yawned a bit and said to Derick 'If there is work left for him bring it here, he is not going to leave this room.'
Marika laid down on his lap but before she fell asleep she spoke a few words that nobody could hear but Derick understood what she said, and she finally fell asleep.
After an hour Derick came back with some tea and snack's. He also had Richard's work and the violin Marika asked for.
"Why did you bring the violin?" Richard asked him.
"She said she wanted to play on it after her nap." Derick answered him.
Derick then asked him "How were your day's in the human world with her."
Richard put down the papers and look at Marika and stoke her head.
"They were wonderful." And Richard smiled at her warmly.
"She showed me where she used to live and where the accident happened that made her come to this world."
"She even explained how she was able to survive for as long as she did that day. And why her body couldn't heal that amount of damage she had sustain and why she was sleeping for 7 days since the day I took her home."
"She even told me the reason why she like to travel."
"And what is that?" Derick asked him.
Richard smiled "That's our little secret."
"We also met with her second soul who she parted with, I was surprised how much they are alike, even their names are the same."
"But Marika was happy to see that the little girl was happy and healthy."
"That's a relieve then." Derick said.
Richard nodded.
"Then what about tomorrow?" Derick ask him.
"She said we should go, we should show them that no matter what they throw at us we stand together and fight together."
"She is right, the moment you two hesitate or show the slights fear, that is when thing will only get worse."
"Don't forget, even if she shows signs that she is fine it doesn't mean she isn't still hurting, because the moment she is doing that a grudge is born."
Before Derick left the room he said to Richard "Over last 4 month's she is been through a lot and she loves you and trust you, she shows her weak side to you, I think it's only fair that you'll start doing the same."
And with those words Derick left the room.
[Ignis Kingdom]
Luca told King Cillus, Cinis and Canus what happen to Khai and how it had effected Marika and Richard.
King Cillus nodded "I can understand that they both were very shaken up by this incident, after all no parent should ever go throw the pain of burying their child."
Canus then asked "When is Mari going to plan on coming here and wipe them all out?"
Cinis sighted "Well even though she and Richard have full right on coming here and invade this kingdom, our little sister knows by doing that it would put a strain on our alliance."
"She also predicted that Luca would be infuriated and would come to Ignis to wipe them out, so that's why she told him to consult with father first."
Luca laughed "No wonder she spoke those words to me, she already predicted my behavior even though I hid it so well from her."
"What did she say?" King Cillus asked.
"A snake will always be jealous of a dragon, because they know they never can become a dragon, no matter how hard they try."
King Cillus laughed out loud, "Really our little Mari is just too smart."
"Well there are multiple meanings in those words of hers."
"But to be honest, I don't think Mari or Richard are their intended target."
Luca looked at King Cillus, "You mean the target are you guys?"
King Cillus nodded "Yes, by doing what they did today they hoped it would trigger an attack on this land and when the alliance with Ignis, Richard and Mari is severed they would make one more push towards them so they could take us down. And the Snake Clan can seize power."
"Why don't you and Cinis go over to The Snake Clan and see what they are plotting. Because knowing Mari she will go to the Moon Festival tomorrow and show her enemies she is unfazed by what just happened."
Suddenly there was a knock on the door.
"Please excuse my rude behavior for disrupting your meeting but please take me with you." Aron spoke.
"I can be of help to you."
"Aren't you suppose to study?"
"Yes but…"
"Then go and study, you promised my sister you would do that."
"Sure but how can I study when my teacher is out?"
"Then you can ask someone else to teach you."
"Like who?"
"There is a King here who also has knowledge and experience."
Luca pretended on being agitated and wanted to test Aron a bit.
Aron smirked at Luca "Then treat it as an outdoor excursion."
"Because the best way to learn something is by doing it and not by reading on it."
"I'm going with you even if you don't like it. Because The snake Clan will recognize His Highness
Cinis and I happen to be the best at illusion magic and can change a person's appearance."
Luca walked up to Aron and patted him on the shoulder. "Good job, you don't back down so easily. you can come along."
"But remember this don't buckle under any circumstance or reveal your identity as Duke of Virtus et Caeruleus Viridi. If you have to reveal your identity just state you're the second prince of The Green Dragon Clan got that."
"I got that, you don't have to tell me that."
"And if they ask me why I'm here I just tell them I'm on vacation."
"Pfft" Canus had to hold his laugh in.
Both Luca and Aron looked at Canus with a serious look on their face. Telling him he shouldn't laugh.
[ At the mansion]
Richard woke up Marika since it was time for dinner. "Sweetie it's time for dinner."
Marika woke up and noticed she wasn't a child, but she regressed to her 16 year old body.
'Huh…I'm not a child?'
"I already spoke to Genus about it, and he has two explanation for you. Either it's because you use your healing ability and thus drained your inner energy, or it's because you absolutely refused to become a child so you would still be able to do things for Khai when it's needed."
'Well in both cases I'm not complaining.'
Derick came inside the room with dinner and said to Marika "I have a message from your brother Luca."
"He said; Thank you for sending me over to Ignis and discuss the situation with King Cillus first. And me, Cinis and Aron are going on a undercover mission to see what those snakes are plotting. P.s Aron is coming with us under the pretext of an excursion so he is still upholding the promise of studying with Cinis."
Both Marika and Richard started laugh.
Marika and Richard finished there dinner and Richard asked Marika to come along on a little walk.
"Regina, Nova could you watch your brother for a little bit?"
'Let us know if he wakes up when were gone or has a fever.'
"Alright." Nova answered.
After a few minutes in there walk the arrived at the garden green house.
They went inside and took Richard to the tree in the middle of the green house and sat down.
She pulled Richard on her lap and stroke his head.
"Aren't you going to ask me anything?"
'No… should I ask you anything? You told me if I couldn't talk about it then I should let you know when I was ready so you would be there to listen to me. I'm just doing the same, I'll wait for you when you're ready to talk to me.'
"The day you asked me to show you what I really looked like I was scared that my appearance would scare you away from me but when you said you fell in love again it made me so happy."
"Up until the day we you discarded your second soul I drew a line in my heart. Because I was afraid the I couldn't handle if I were to loos you."
"When Solis told me you were to live a long life I slowly started to believe you wouldn't leave me and that it was oké for me to love you."
"There were times that I doubted you wouldn't leave me but every time I had the slights doubt Solis kept reminding me I should stop being afraid and trust that you would overcome your life treating situations."
"Every time the situation looked so dire that I felt at a loss, you proved to me you were fighting hard to stay with me."
"But today when I saw how frighten and frantically you looked when you felt that our son was at the brink of death, I really thought I was cursed and like you, I would be disallowed of a bit of happiness."
Richard was softly crying "I thought I was going to lose you and our son today, the thought alone scared me so much."
"I really can't bear it if I lose you or our children so please don't leave me, whatever happens."
Marika placed a kiss on Richard head and said 'I'm not planning on leaving you, I will murder anybody who tries to take me away from you, and if I fail at that then you better come after me and bring me back home.'
'So no matter how far I am, I will always yearn for you and I will fight and find my way to you.'
'And if these words aren't enough, than hold me close to you so I will always be in your line of sight.'
'And showing me a weak side of you doesn't mean I think your weak. It only shows that you truly trust me with your weakness.'
'One's weakness can become one's strength never forget that.'
Richard nodded and got up from Marika's lap and he hugged her tight.
"Can I make a selfish request?"
'What is it?'
"Would you play the violin when we get back? It always put my mind to ease when you play it."
'Sure.'
Marika and Richard came back from there walk and went to the be room where their children were.
Marika check on Khai and said the anesthetic had worn of and that he was now sleeping on his own.
"Let's go to the other room, your mom is going to play the violin in a bit."
Nova and Regina fallowed Richard to the other room.
Marika covered up Khai 'Today I'm going to play a lot of music so please wake up soon so you can put both mine and your fathers mind at ease.'
Marika left the doors open to bedroom so Khai could hear her play.
"You guy's never saw or heard her play right?"
The both nodded.
'Khai was up until now the only child I played the violin for.'
Marika walked over to the balcony doors and opened them.
Richard and the kid were sitting down on the couch and Marika took a deep breath.
Marika started to play one piece after another and Regina and Nova were amazed by their mother playing and the pieces of music she was playing.
After an hour Marika was done playing and saw her husband and kids sleeping on the couch.
She smiled and closed the balcony doors and cover the up.
She went to over to Khai and closed the door.
She sat down and took his hand and started to cry a little 'Please wake up, if only for just a few minutes just to let me know that you're alright.'
Richard who had woke up heard her plead to her son and it broke his heart.
He waited a few minutes and went in to the room and saw Marika had cried herself to sleep.
Richard sat down next to Marika and said to Khai, "Please wake up soon, the anxiety you put on your mother is breaking my heart."
Richard held Marika and he fell asleep next to her.
Half way through the night Khai woke up and saw both his parents sleeping next to the bed.
Khai got from the bed and hugged them both.
This woke up Marika and saw her son was awake and hugged him tight.
'Thank god you woke up, how do you feel?'
Richard woke up because of Marika's movement.
He saw Marika was hugging Khai and he finally felt relieved.
"I'm fine now mom, I'm sorry I put you and dad through this."
Richard ruffled his head, "If you're sorry then don't do it again in the future. Do you have any idea how scared we were? We thought we were going to lose you."
Khai nodded "I'll try my best to avoid on getting hurt."
Marika notice a change in Khai, 'Khai give me your hand.'
Marika changed her hand in to a dragon claw and mad a cut in Khai's hand. And saw it healed on its own instantly.
"Huh…what's happening?"
'This is just a theory of mine but…I think Khai has an exact copy of my healing magic now inside him. Just like when he accidentally split of his soul and transfer it in to me when he healed me for the first time the same happened now when I healed his wound. Somehow whenever we are close, his soul transfers the knowledge about my healing magic.'
"Then what about his sword skills?"
'Remember the day I found Khai, he was colorless, and when we both put our energy in him he also absorbed our knowledge of the sword skill.'
When Khai heard all of it he looked a bit anxious. Richard pulled him in a hug "It doesn't matter how he got his skills or has a copy of your healing magic."
"He just has the best ability's from the both of us."
"Remember son you and your sibling's are our pride and joy don't forget that."
Khai nodded.
The next morning Regina and Nova woke up on the bed, the saw there brother was awake and gestured they should be quite.
They nodded and the 3 of them went out of the room to the kitchen.
Derick was in the kitchen and saw the 3 of them standing in the doorway.
Derick sighed a sigh in relieve seeing Khai was awake and full of energy again.
"Does your mom and dad know you woke up?"
"Yes they know I'm fine, I woke up ones during the night."
"Alright that's good then."
"Grandpa I know I scared mom and dad pretty bad so I want to make it up to them and make breakfast for them."
"Alright, let's start cooking then."
As they were making breakfast Richard woke up and saw the 3 of them had left the room and he pulled Marika in his embrace and hugged her tight.
Marika woke up 'Darling if you hug me any tighter I will suffocate.'
Richard loosened his grip a little. "I'm sorry."
Marika gave Richard a kiss 'Well I did say if you were scared to lose me you should keep me close.'
Richard smiled at her and kissed her.
Marika noticed the kids were gone 'Where are the kids?'
"They are probably down stairs in the kitchen."
Marika got up from the bed and went in to the bathroom and took a shower.
When she got out she changed her cloth and they discussed today's plans
"I know it's very early in the morning, so when are planning to appear at the castle?"
'Well what's your schedule?'
"I have to do an speech at 10 and then it's do whatever we want, and next day a closing ceremony and that starts at 6 in the evening."
"So what are your thoughts of getting a tour of my kingdom? We can visit some places and we go over the festival grounds on the last day?"
'You mean were going to visit places outside of the castle? Like village's and forest and stuff?'
Richard nodded.
Marika jumped up to Richard 'That's a great idea.'
"There is one more thing I want your opinion on." Richard looked a bit shy.
'What is that?'
"I want to announce that we are getting engaged."
"Now that Derick has a Title of Grand Duke of Virtus et Caeruleus Viridi…"
Marika kissed Richard 'I agree and we can smoke out more opposing forces and trample on them.'
'And at the same time we give the people a unforgettable festival and something to look forward to.'
Derick and the children heard what they were discussing and the 4 of them felt really happy for them.
Derick knocked on the door and came in with breakfast.
Khai walked up to his parent, "I'm so sorry for scaring you, so to make it up, I made you two breakfast, with the help of grandpa, Regina and Nova."
Richard and Marika both grabbed Khai by the arm and pulled them in a hug, Marika waved over the her other two children to join in.
Derick took a picture on this lovely moment.
After the six of them were done with their breakfast Richard went to Moon Castle and Marika set of with the kids to the forest of Faber Village.
Marika landed and whistle for the pack to come to her.
The pack of Dire Wolfs appeared, Marika spotted again a few new wolf cubs.
Catlaster greeted Marika and nuzzled her.
Marika smiled 'How have you been?'
"I have been well, I like you to meet my mate."
Marika looked at the female wolf and she nuzzled her, 'Don't worry, I know my place in this pack. Even thought my mate is the alpha he told me that your also the alpha of the pack so I won't compete for that place.'
Marika petted the female wolf and when she touched her side Marika smiled 'You're going to be mom soon aren't you?'
Both Catlaster and the female wolf looked surprised.
'You didn't know? Well congratulation you're going to be parents very soon.'
Marika looked at the female wolf and said 'Silva why don't you act as my substitute, I give you full authority as an alpha when I'm not around.'
Marika looked at the rest of the pack, 'Does anybody object to this?'
They all shook their heads.
Marika looked at Agrius and Ferox 'And what about you two?'
"If this is what big sister wants then we listen."
'Good, and don't forget your promise, you are going to set off to The Forest of Eternal Night to escort my children back and after that you return to the pack.'
"We will, we promise."
'Catlaster, Silva if there is a problem concerning giving birth or the children let me know.'
'I'll be leaving for The Moon Kingdom today and will be staying there for 2 days, I'll let you all know when I returned.'
Marika turned to Consilium 'Thank you for guarding my children, don't forget your promise with me.'
"I will uphold it to my last breath don't worry child."
Marika hugged her children, 'Be good and let me know the moment you're in trouble, promise me.'
'We will mom, enjoy your day's with dad.' Regina said to Marika
'Khai just because you have the same ability now as me don't you go and act like a living shield.'
"I won't mom, because mom doesn't do it, I won't do that either."
'Nova you may look older than your brother and sister but your still the youngest, listen to Khai and Regina, and know that The Forest of Eternal night sit's between My Kingdom and that of you uncle Canus. So if you three can't come to me, then go to them alright?'
"Yes mom."
Marika hugged them again and smiled 'Have a safe trip and train hard, I'll be seeing you soon.'
The 6 of them left for The Forest of Eternal Night.
Silva came up to Marika and nuzzled her, 'I can't imagine how hard it must be for you to do this.'
Marika petted Silva, 'Well I believe that any animal or creature that belongs in the wild should be at their rightful place. I may have adopted them but I never forget they belong out there. I will teach them and guide them till they are able to fend for them self's.'
Silva respected Marika even more, not only as a leader but also as a mother.
'Now you guys go can go back, oh and one more thing, if you spot a vampire just chase them off don't put yourselves in danger and inform me or one of the villagers in charge of you guys.'
Marika hugged the all one by one and petted the little cubs.
Marika said her goodbye's to the pack and headed down to the village.
On her way she was stopped by another wolf who snarled and growled to her.
Marika transformed in to her 7th stage, but the wolf didn't back down.
The wolf tried to attack her but Marika evaded the attack and pinned the wolf down.
'Which clan do you belong to?' Marika asked the wolf.
The wolf kept growling at here even when he was pinned down.
'Fine if you don't want to say it, Noir!'
Noir came to Marika and saw the wolf she had pinned down.
'Noir to which clan does this little punk belong to?'
"He belongs to my clan; The Night Wolf Clan."
"Noir you little traitor, we swore our loyalty only to The Moon King why are you telling her."
Noir looked at the him, "Well than you better be prepared to lose your life because not only did you tread in Queen Yumaria's kingdom without letting me know, but you also attacked her and she is also His Majesty's wife."
'Noir can you do something for me? Could you go to the village and get me some rope?'
Noir nodded and after a few minutes he came back with the rope.
"What are you going to do with this?"
'You'll see, hold this little trouble make down for me for a bit.'
Marika casted a spell and pulled out a knife. She then started to tie up the legs and muzzled his mouth.
When she was done Noir laughed at the sight of the wolf.
Marika transform into her final stage and told Noir to hop on her back together with the wolf.
After she landed at the castle Noir came down from her back and carried the wolf with him.
Marika chanced back to her normal self and then to picked up the bound wolf and place him over her shoulders and walked inside the castle.
The soldiers saw Marika carrying the wolf, My Queen you caught a wolf?
'I did.'
"But isn't he from The Night Wolf Clan?"
'He is, but he tried to attack me.' Marika said calmly.
The guard then said to the wolf "You are very lucky she tied you up, I hope His Majesty is also forgiving to you as she is."
'Where is my husband?'
"He is in the audience chamber, let us escort you there."
Marika nodded and she resumed her walk with the wolf on her shoulders.
When they arrived the guard announced that Marika had arrived with a present for him.
Marika walk in and everybody looked at her with disbelieve.
Marika walked up and bowed to Richard 'I brought His Majesty some fur for a new winter coat, but you have to kill it since it's still alive.'
Marika put down the wolf on the ground who was trembling in fear.
Richard looked at the wolf and recognize him, "Spike what did you do?"
'Oh he can't talk at the moment because I tied his jaws.'
'When I showed my 7th stage he snarled at me, growled at me and even attacked me in my own Kingdom.'
Marika untied Spikes jaws so he could speak.
'And then I called for Noir because he didn't want to tell me from which clan he was, after I was told he is from The Night Wolf Clan I tied him up.'
'Since he doesn't want to talk to me or apologize to me, and he is a from a clan who swore their loyalty to His Majesty I brought him here for his punishment.'
Marika looked at spike and held a knife in her hands, 'Don't try to do anything funny after I cut your ropes.'
Spike whimpered a bit, while Marika was cutting his rope she held a strong sent under his nose but it seemed he couldn't smell it.
Marika then said, 'To be fair here, Spike seems to have as issue with his nose.'
Marika was done untying him and let him sit up.
Marika then stood next to Noir and also seem to not have smelled it either.
"Spike what were you doing in Virtus et Caeruleus Viridi?" Richard asked him in a stern voice.
"I was there because Noir told me a village needed help and we needed to evacuate the people until you would come Your Majesty, while I was helping I got hit by a strange fog. When everything was safe again I went to find water to get the dusts from the fog of me and I got hit and lost my senses, when I came to I was lost and then I ran in to her."
Marika then remembered something. 'Your Majesty, if you punish him make it a light punishment please.'
Spike looked at Marika, "Why would you asked for that? I attacked you and…."
Marika looked at Spike, 'Do you want to die unjustified?'
'Spike listen to me, when I arrive the poison was already there but because me and Cinis were in our final form and because we landed we blew our area clean around us, that's why I notice the poison in the air later when I went further in the Village killing those vampire pricks.'
'But Spike that battle was roughly 10 days ago.'
"True, but still he did attack you even when you showed him your 7th stage and he needs to be punished."
"Let's see…What does Her Majesty thinks of having him as your body guard when you are here?"
'I don't mind, what do you think Spike?'
"What????"
"It's either that or becoming my new winter coat" Richard said firmly.
"Pfft" Both Marika and Noir had to contain there laugh.
Marika went up to Spike, 'Here eat this, it helps you recover from the poison.'
'You two Noir, it seems your also affected.'
"I am?"
'Yes, I held a very strong sent under your noses and you weren't able to smell it.'
'If you don't believe me just smell me and tell me what I smell like.
Both Noir and Spike smell Marika "You don't have any smell on you" Spike said and Noir nodded.
Marika walked up to Richard, 'Then can Your Majesty tell them what type of sent is one me?
Richard then said "You have the scent of a Frost Lilly on you."
Marika nodded and showed them a Frost Lilly. 'Now take the medicine and your sense of smell will recover.'
Noir took the medicine but Spike refused.
Richard chuckle at the sight of how Marika was wrestling with Spike.
'Alright you win, I give up. Keep being sent blind for the rest of your life, why should I care.' Marika shrugged her shoulders.
Spike opened his mouth to say something but Marika moved so fast she put the pill in his mouth and kept his mouth shut tight.
He swallowed the pill 'I win!'
"That's cheap!"
'I'm just smarter than you.'
Marika then bowed to Richard 'Since this little incident got clarified I'll be taking my leave Your Majesty.'
Marika walked towards the door "Aren't you forgetting something?"
Marika turned around and sighed 'Spike come with me.'
Spike didn't listen, 'Fine just become a coat for all I care.' And she left the room.
Marika went to Richard private quarters and changed her clothes and went down to the training area.
Richard looked ice cold at spike, "Maybe making coat out of you is better, Noir take him away."
Noir did what Richard asked of him and left the room.
"I hope you can keep your life, you just straight up ignored his order."
Spike didn't speak a word.
"Just so you know, yesterday there was an incident that almost took the life of one of their adoptive children, when they weren't here. Luckily they came back in time and saved him, His Majesty is on edge now because the perpetrator was from inside the castle."
"And as of today, she brought her children to a place where they will be save and for the time being, she can't go see them for some time so they would be safe. The same goes for His Majesty, you have no idea how painful that must be."
"Not to mention, her hellish life before she came here." He muttered.
Noir found Marika at the training ground, Marika was sparring and teaching the soldiers she taught before.
"Did you know she is doing this because she wants to and nobody asked her to do this. If she sees potential in somebody she will help them, teach and support them to reach their goals and asks nothing in return."
"Just like when you explained what happened to you, she ask Master to be lenient with his punishment, and look at what you did you just threw it all back at her."
"I never asked her to do that." Spike muttered.
"Just because you didn't ask her, doesn't mean she thinks she should be silent and just watch." Richard said to Spike.
Richard looked at Marika who was praising the small progress they made.
"You see, even if they didn't make big leaps with what she taught them she still praise them for what they have achieved how small it may be."
"She isn't teaching her sword style, but teaching them her foundation of her sword style, because her foundation can be applied to any sword style."
Richard saw the instructor that her brothers beat up last time, coming over.
"Now spike watch her closely, because that man over there was very rude to my wife last time and her brothers beat him up. Let's see what that beating did to him."
The instructor bowed to Marika "My Queen could you please forgive me and my prejudice of you and your sword art?"
"This request of mine may be outrages but, I would like to ask if My Queen could teach me like the others so I can implement this in my teachings for generations to come."
Marika looked at the man and then at the soldiers who nodded in agreement.
Marika waved the big man to come to her level and whispered, 'Sure, I don't find it an outrages request.'
She then patted the man on the shoulder, 'You're a fine teacher if you discard that intimidating aura of yours.'
She then gave him 3 healing pills and said 'Take one a day and your back to your healthy and strong self again.'
She smiled at the man.
"Can My Queen indulge me with one more request?"
'And what is it that you want?'
"After I recovered could we have a sparring match?"
Marika giggled 'Sure thing, I'm also curious to your strength.'
'Let's have a meal together after the Moon festival?'
"Is that alright? I mean…"
'Sure it's alright, I had a great time last time so… and to be honest I can be myself when I'm with you guys than when I'm with those stiff and stuck up nobles and their dinner parties.'
The instructor laughed "It's a promise!' and ruffle Marika's hair.
Richard walked up to Marika and called out to her.
Marika looked up and saw Richard, Noir and Spike approaching her.
'Why haven't you turned that ungrateful thing in a coat yet?'
Marika was annoyed by the sight of spike,
"What did you say!"
Marika ignored Spike and then asked Richard "Are you done with the formalities and stuff?'
Richard nodded.
'Alright, I'm going to change and fresh up a bit.'
"We will wait for you at the back garden."
Marika stopped and turned around 'We?'
"Me, Noir and Spike" Richard answered.
Marika looked almost murderess at the three of them. 'I don't mind Noir. But that thing better stays at home or else the three of you can go out together.'
Marika then turned around and left.
"Master?"
Richard shook his head, "There is no way to appease her, just let her calm down."
The instructor asked what had happened and Noir explained it to him.
The instructor then started to yell at Spike. "You fool!"
"After Our Queen genuinely helped you with your health issue and asked for leniency, your threw it back at her like a spoiled brat!
The man sighed, "Just leave her alone for some time, and start reflecting on what you just did, and apologize to her afterwards."
"She may not look like it but she can quickly form a grudge, but she isn't someone who is unforgiving." Richard said to Spike.
Richard was waiting for Marika at the garden.
When she walked up to him she asked 'Where is Noir?'
"He isn't coming, he went back to the clan with spike to check if anybody else has the same issue they had."
'Alright, I really don't need a body guard anyway.'
Marika and Richard both transformed and flew over to their first stop. It was an old historical ruins from for a time before the great war.
Marika looked around and found something interesting. Richard explained there were 7 dragon clans, but 2 had had disappeared. "They disappeared during the war, But it's said that the Blue Dragon Clan lived in the human world, and the Brown Dragon Clan resided here in this world."
'They disappeared… humm'
"What are you thinking?"
