Chapter 9 - Quest!

At five years old, Adam had the appearance of a ten-year-old. This was a common trait among dragons, who grew physically faster than other races, though their mental development remained age-appropriate—except for Adam. At this young age, he could walk and talk perfectly. While dragons usually learned to walk in two months with proper guidance, Adam managed it in just one month. This feat did not surprise many, considering he was the son of the emperor. His mother, who taught him everything, mentioned that two of his siblings also learned to walk in one month.

According to his mother, a lot of newborn dragons caused a lot of tantrums while they were growing up. The only ones who didn't were Adam and three other newborns, they were also the same age.

Something he also learned was about the size of dragons in their human forms. According to his mother, the size of houses were not made for dragons, they were made for giants as they were allies and lived together in the dragon empire.

The tame giants' height were 10 feet, while the ones who weren't tame, and were living in the wild were much taller, and also stronger.

Dragons' height were similar to humans, of course there are dragons much taller than humans in their human form. In total, there are ten thousand giants living amongst dragons across the entire empire.

The majority of giants were warriors fighting for dragons, although they were allies, dragons had much control over them, they were treated as servants, but were not discriminated against by dragons, they were living in harmony with each other.

Adam also learned about his other siblings, in total there are six children of the emperor and empress including Adam. Three males and three females, he had only met Astridra Banehorn, which is the second child, and his big sister who's supposedly now his lover.

Is he worried that Violet would be mad now that he has another woman? Of course not! Why would he? Violet is, after all, not stupid enough to want to kill him out of jealousy, she's not like the other yanderes who are blinded by their feelings. Heck, she's the type of yandere that if Adam wanted more women, she would gladly give him more women! Being with Adam is enough to make her extremely happy! She also knows that she's loved more by Adam even if he has more women, after all, they have been together for many decades.

It has been one month since he turned 5, and apparently his older brother will come to meet him today. The year and day names were the same as earth. Today was the year 1235, and the day was Monday, months were also the same, today was February 10. Adam was born on 01, 01, 1230, exactly the same time as violet.

As for what was violet doing right now? She was just being a 5 year old, like any normal child would. However, she wasn't normal for elfs as she learned how to walk, and talked much to the surprise of her parents as elfs tend to develop much slower than most species. She was probably the first to achieve talking, and walking at such a young age in the entire elven kingdom, of course, except the elven god or goddess who wasn't raised or born in the elven kingdom.

Adam's appearance hasn't changed much over the years except the horns that he now has. on his left and right temples are two thick horns protruding crookedly. He can also summon his dragon wings and fly with them, his wings are bigger than him, colored black combined with golden color.

When he was born, his blonde hair wasn't long, but now he has shoulder length hair like his main body had. By the way, Adam and Violet are not clones, they have souls like any normal person would, they are Adam and violet, but not the real Adam and violet, it's complicated, okay! But they are like any normal person is.

In those 5 years, his strength didn't change much as to increase his strength, he either has to train, fight or kill monsters. Of course, his system suggested another way to get stronger which is dual cultivation like those ones in cultivation novels, but since he was still a kid, he hasn't executed that way yet, but he will in the future, I mean, who wouldn't? Definitely not Adam!

The system had a reason for suggesting that method to Adam, and that is for Adam to get more women! Of course Adam did not know this, but it does not matter, this new life was meant for Adam and Violet to have fun, and nothing serious, after all, they cannot die, at least in the future.

Quest: 1! ]

Adam had gained a new title and a new family member, but he was more interested in the natural increase in some of his stats. To become strong faster, he needed to train and gain experience. But some dragons, despite not training, still grew stronger naturally, but they could never surpass those who put in the work.

The system had a quest for Adam to kill a giant snake, which would grant him immortality upon consuming its core. The snake, unnamed, was humorously dubbed "Orochimaru" by Adam, after the character from Naruto!

[New Quest!

Prey: Orochimaru, the giant snake!

Reward: Immortality!

Time: N/A

Penalty: N/A ]

Adam decided he wouldn't undertake this quest soon. He and Violet would need to meet up and hunt together, and they weren't strong enough yet. Fortunately, there were two ways to claim the reward: consuming the core or eating the heart. Adam chose to eat the heart, leaving the core for Violet. She could crush it to gain the reward, whereas Adam had to eat the heart directly.

At the moment, Adam was in the living room, sitting on a white couch that could fit five people. In front of him was a wooden table with tea and snacks. Opposite him was another identical couch, but he was alone in the room.

He was waiting for his older brother, the first child of the dragon emperor and empress. He should be arriving in ten minutes as the messenger of his older brother had told him beforehand.

*knock* *knock*

Suddenly, knocking sounds snapped Adam out of his own thoughts. He sat up, and walked to the door to open it as he didn't have a maid currently to do it for him. Upon arriving at the door, he placed both his hands on each handle of the door, then pushed the door inward into his room.

Beyond the door stood his older brother, with short blonde hair, green eyes, and a muscular build. He wore luxurious white clothes befitting royalty, with a red cape hanging from his shoulders. He had no visible horns or wings, though dragons could choose not to show them if they wanted to.

Adam shifted his gaze to the person Beside his brother, there stood a man with short white hair and gray eyes, marked by two small scars on his nose. He had white facial hair and wore a simple black shirt with black and brown armor covering his chest and arms. His stomach was exposed, and a gray cape hung from his waist to his feet, secured by a belt with a sword

Upon inspecting the two people, Adam moved aside to make way for them to come into the room, "Welcome."

He said smiling while they were passing besides him, then he closed the room when they completely entered inside.
