Chapter 1210 – 1210. Sense Of Time
None of the other royal dragons had been old enough to be around when thest natural dragon had been around. Therefore, the words of the keeper had resonated with them in a way that they did not expect. They found joy. They thought that they might actually be the generation of royals that would make a name for themselves within history. That they would have statues that stood taller than any other when they were past their prime. That every keeper would tell stories to their fellow dragons about them. It was a moment of pride that they felt above others.
Walker found that his opinion of the dragons had changed greatly. They were not some high and mighty existence that would stomp on any other race for going against their traditions. He wasn''t ashamed to have thought that. In many books, dragons were thought of this way and even more so. It wasn''t a lie to say that the dragons had once acted this way either. But nowadays, dragons focus on themselves and their viges without thought for the rest of the world. It was a wed way of thought.
Su found herself with a different opinion. She found that the royals were trapped. From what she saw, they had been trapped by their ideals to the point that they didn''t branch out enough. The words that the champions and guardians had were too narrow minded and missed the opportunity that came from the other races gathering. The dragons should have had the best way to bring nations together with their strength and variants in elemental mana.
The fact that she had not ended up in a battle was also surprising. Su had believed that she would be pitted against the other guardians to show off strength in some way but had not. Instead, they had actually found their own chance to rx. From what it seemed the guardians and champions were massively focused and over worked. They were always stressed and needed more rest than anything. Not that Su ever stopped herself but she was easily able to make it happen if need be. However, that was one reason she was sure that the champions and guardians would visit Genesis before their lords.
When it came to Midnight, she was a little torn. She had expected to show off her power, which she had. She was sent to hint for the royals and managed to impress them with variety and how she jumped right in to action controlling her mes. But it was not to the degree that she had expected. She had believed that she would fight champion against champion in battles to show who had the most power and the best scales. It was actually a little disappointing to her.
Yet, the more she thought, the happier she was that it was not a battle. She watched Walker use his words and her actions to sneak his ideals in to their conversations. She also knew that she would be able to see more dragons in the future. If the royals dragged their feet toe to Genesis then who cared? They were sending the hatchlings that would be rejected in Genesis, Midnight would have fellow dragons there that would grow up the way that she did with families and dedicated friends. It would be much better.
Overall, the three found themselves with mixed emotions. They had also not realized the days that had actually passed them by while they were inside the royal dragon court. Their senses of time had somewhat shifted to that of the dragons. Their lifespans may have changed due to their bonds, yes, but it was not the way that the dragons were yet. Where years could pass and they would not realize it. But while in the court, the change of the sun and moon with the actions that had happened were much slower than they realized. It had easily been a week and a half while they had spoken, eaten, and Walker had started to learn a little more of dragon history.
The keeper had brought out many books made with his illusion magic. They contained changing history for Walker to learn along with knowledge about raising dragons. Walker could not be more overjoyed to receive this gift. He also found that the ancient dragon, the oldest of the dragons there, had added in a few sneaky jokes about the changes that woulde to the dragons with another natural dragon member. It appeared that the natural elemental mana addition was more powerful than Walker could grasp. He was still too inexperienced.
"We are really leaving?" Su felt that it had been but three days since she had gotten there with everyone.
"Yes, it''s been longer than we realized and all the other royals left this morning. I can''t believe they actually all agreed toe to Genesis one day. It''s hard to believe it actually happened." Walker was still beside himself in disbelief.
Midnight huffed at him and Su. She, for one, was happy to head home. She wanted the food andfort for the firece. She missed everyone and wanted to tell them about her journey. She was also still trying to grasp how to speak and could not fall behind. How else would she ask Hilda for her favorite food more often? It was just ridiculous to let time get away from them. Not to mention the gifts she had found for the others. She wanted to share them as soon as possible.
"And yes, we can stop where you went hunting so you can show us." Walker knew that Midnight wanted to show them this and was not going to forget. He didn''t even have to pretend he was or wasn''t interested. It was an overwhelming yes that he was very interested in the ce the flying horned rabbits called home.
