Nala Diguard, 1873 years old, the most outstanding disciple of Supreme Dragon Lady Amaranta Bianchi. Currently holding the position of Chief Executor of the Supreme Council of Bordium, boasting the title of the strongest Great Dragon Lady of this era and the title of Right Hand of Supreme Advisor Alexandra Harpium.
These are the pieces of information that everyone knows about Nala, practically what she has achieved and conquered. But apparently, Nala is an extremely reserved person, preferring not to get involved in political or diplomatic matters.
She spends most of her time executing missions for the Supreme Council, avoiding social gatherings, parties, dinners, etc. In her free time, she prefers to spend time researching Aura Zones, new training methodologies, rare minerals, and exotic animals.
When she's not researching, she spends her time training and traveling. These can be considered the two things she enjoys doing the most, especially training. The fact that she is so strong must be precisely because of this obsession with training.
But at least it was worth it; she is recognized by her title no matter where she goes. Not that most people really know what that means. After all, I think few people have been fortunate enough to witness a real battle of Nala at full strength and survived to tell the tale.
But what I know is that Nala boasts of being able to face 10 experienced Dragon Ladies in combat. That is, she can face 5 pairs of Mom and Abigail at the same time... She has also said that Mom and Abigail still had much to learn before being considered experienced Dragon Ladies.
And honestly... I believe every word she said. I'm sure that even without using Aura, Nala can easily defeat Mom and Abigail, even if the duo uses Aura.
Fortunately, Nala enjoys teaching and applying training to anyone willing to take on the challenge. But in the case of all the women in the palace, they didn't have the option to choose to face the challenge.
They were forced into an intense training regimen since Nala moved to Avior. In fact, even I was not spared from this rigorous training routine; Nala managed to define a specific training regimen for me as well.
But if there's one thing I need to thank her for, it's that she never goes too far with me; at least she doesn't usually leave me unconscious after training. In contrast, none of the other women escape Nala's ruthlessness.
Whether it's strength training with weights, running to train agility, or reaching overload to train synchronization... Nala doesn't stop until they reach their limit and literally pass out from exhaustion.
Anyway, Nala does a CDT every 10 days; on this occasion, Mom and Abigail can face Nala together and use their maximum strength without restrictions. Any kind of strategy, plan, attack, or fighting moves is allowed.
There's only one rule: no one can use Aura in a normal CDT...
That doesn't prevent them from training really seriously, using all the techniques and tactics they can and with more aggressiveness than in normal training sessions. But Nala is relentless, like a Karate master against some rookies.
If one of them tries to grab Nala, she finds a way to get rid of them; if they try to strike Nala, she somehow dodges... Everything they try is ruthlessly neutralized by Nala, and while they miss, Mom and Abigail receive as many blows as they attempt.
So, it's quite normal for them to be thrown from high up by Nala, plummeting 200 or 300 meters in free fall to the ground. Deep scratches, to the point of reaching the bones, are also part of the combat. Bite marks and some pieces of flesh missing are also quite normal...
NORMAL MY ASS... THIS IS FUCKING SCARY... It's almost like watching a fight between pit bulls, only much more violent and on a ridiculously larger scale. I don't like this; it's too much madness and violence in one place.
But it's precisely because of this that I witnessed how absurd the recovery capability Dragons have in this place... And I don't hesitate to say that they are practically salamanders in terms of regeneration, only at an even faster pace.
Not long ago, about 90 days ago, I saw with my own eyes Mom lose a limb by accident during training with Abigail. A LIMB... It wasn't broken or just a tendon cut. The limb was literally torn from Mom's body.
I had no reaction; I could only freeze as the scene unfolded before me. It started with Mom letting out a loud roar of pain and then landing quickly. Soon after, Nala and Abigail went to provide first aid.
When I came to, I was at home in bed about to sleep. But I couldn't sleep the whole night, thinking about how Mom would be after that. I was worried; I cried half the night, and the other half I spent walking around the room thinking about how Mom was.
It was only the next morning that I found out that the arm Mom lost was almost 100% recovered in just 1 day. It was so absurd that even today, I still find myself thinking about it...
As soon as I left the room in the morning to look for Mom, Abigail led me to the garden to find Mom in her dragon form basking in the sun. The arm was there, as if it had never been torn off.
But the movements were still recovering, so Mom couldn't walk normally yet and was resting. So, for her to fully recover, Mom had to maintain her original Dragon form.
From what I've learned from Nala, Dragons can't process drastic changes in their humanoid forms. That is, if a dragon in their humanoid form receives a light or medium injury, this injury will not be reflected in their dragon form.
But depending on the injury, the transfiguration may or may not be interrupted, causing the dragon to receive the injury directly in its dragon form.
For example, if Mom is training in her humanoid form and receives a strong enough blow to cause internal bleeding, she will not be forced to interrupt the transfiguration.
But if she happens to receive a deep cut in a vital part or lose a part of her body, whatever it may be, the transfiguration will be immediately interrupted.
This is a type of self-preservation instinct, as the original form is the form in which they fight and protect themselves seriously. It's like a boxer who always raises his fists to protect his face when about to fight.
"Young Lord. Which of them do you consider the most beautiful in her dragon form? Lady Nala, Lady Inessa, or Lady Abigail? Answer sincerely... hehe..."
"BY AURA, Marien... Do you really want to get us in trouble?"
While I was focused on watching and thinking about the CDT, Marien decided to turn to me and ask with a cynical smile on her face something I shouldn't answer...
I was taken aback after hearing the question, because I know it's a dangerous question and could easily lead me to a routine of daily torture in my training.
"It's not a difficult question, and I'm sure you already have the answer to it..."
Marien continued her quest for answers. But I mustn't give in, even if I have the answer. Ignoring the smile on Marien's face, I decide to remain stoic and look straight ahead.
"If I were to make a guess, Young Lord, I would wager that you like Lady Inessa's form because of her color... But I think you prefer Lady Nala for her physical stature... Am I right?"
With a smile on her face, Marien looked at me with a look that indicated she knew something and wanted to provoke me. But I won't let her provoke me... So I start to stare Marien in the eyes seriously and speak:
"Marien, I quite like you, but I'm not sure if I could save you if Nala or Mom decided to punish you severely. Besides, I'm not even sure I would want to try..."
With a stern expression, I couldn't help but try to warn Marien about the dangers she's facing. I hope it's enough to scare her. But I find it very difficult since Marien and Hendrina love to test the limits of my patience.
"Hahaha, Young Lord..."
Far from having the reaction I expected, Marien just looked at me and laughed loudly at the words I said. Then she called me over and leaned towards me, whispering in my ear:
"I'm sure you would do everything possible to protect us, Young Lord, whether it's me or any of the other girls. I remember vividly you saying in no uncertain terms that you couldn't bear to see any of us hurt... Besides, you wouldn't want to lose any of your cute and warm pillows."
"..."
Damn it... My face turned red instantly... There's no way I can argue against her at this point, anything I say will sound like an excuse. The best I can do is try to contain my embarrassment and try to ignore Marien and her smirk beside me.

I hope you can help me correct any spelling errors in the chapters.
