<><><><><><><><><><>

"Huhuhuhuhu..."

"Guhuhuhuhuhuhuhu....."

"Bwahahahahahahahahahaha......"

Shrouded in an unknown dark mist, the hero hugged a unknown package as he laughed manically.

It's been a few days, I think a week, to think so many things happened.

I learnt magic, met with many different kinds of humans and a single ghost, occasionally I'll see servants of other races but I never conversed with them cause Oniichan said not to, plus they're servants.

When it's clear outside, occasionally Oniichan will bring me out to play, I met with human children and also lots of females with large chests, though they would mostly play around with me and ignore Oniichan.

Oh and I also found out that Oniichan works as a instructor in a place where he teaches about magic and weapons to soldiers, but I'm not allowed to go so I stay in his room and learn some magic from the ghost when she visits.

Her name is Nayomi, she said to me.

So today, Oniichan and I was awoken to the knocking of the window, a large bird whose feathers contained metallic qualities was gently tapping the window with its beak, on it's back was the said package.

Looking behind the large bird I noticed that the not even a bit of the sun had crossed the horizon.

Excitedly jumping out of his burrow consisting of a thick blanket and a few pillows, the hero ran to the window and immediately snatched the package from the back of the bird and in return placed another package he took out from under his bed on the way here.

I lazily looked at him with half opened eyes, not moving from the comfortable bed the king's servants had finally set up a few days ago.

After a few moments of weird noises that tumbled out of Oniichan's mouth as he hugged the package, he finally placed it down.

"Huhuhuhu....." He softly laughed as he opened it, his grin so wide you'd think his lips would tear.

Immediately throwing a small box labeled 'biology' that took up a good amount of space in the package under his bed as fast as he can, he examined the rest whilst wearing a mask of innocence.

What does biology mean? I suppose I'll try to look at it when Oniichan isn't here.

Very quickly scanning the letter that was in the package, he threw it back into the box and looked at the other items in it.

"It's finally here...Huhu." He shook a small bottle with only three pills inside "How long have I waited...guehuehue." 

"What is it?" I curiously sniffed at it, but it only gave off a sweet flowery scent that was present on the entire package.

"Psh, it's sealed tight, you can't smell it," He sneered as he gently placed the small bottle 

onto his pocket "you'll find out it's uses in the future~"

Lastly, with the small box and bottle taken out, there was only a few slips of paper left, a certificate of residence and another of adventurer's, both of them with the hero's name 'Silas' on it and also the letter he read in the beginning.

Taking this two certificates, he hid them in between his clothes in the closet and turned around, and said "Hey, don't tell anyone about these." With a rather serious tone.

"Mm'kay." I nodded as I placed my head back onto the pillow, letting myself drift into dreamland, not really harping on the unusual things that had happened with the span of 5 minutes just now.

<><><><><><><><><><>

In the morning the hero promptly thrown his coat on and left, probably heading to the soldier's training grounds I'm not allowed to visit.

Not really bothering with his absence, I continued to sleep till noon only to wake up to absolutely nothing, strange.

This narrative has been purloined without the author's approval. Report any appearances on Amazon.

Normally without Oniichan or Nayomi waking me, I'll be able to sleep to the next day, so...why?

I suppose, I can dig around the messy area under his bed, he isn't here anyways....

I shouldn't..........but, there's something shiny down there....I can almost see it.

I guess.....

Well I'll have plenty of time to regret later, without thinking about it, I ran and squeezed into the small opening and reached my hand towards the shiny thing.

Pulling it out, I sat on the floor with bits of dust covering my upper body, curiously examining the item in my hands.

It was a heart shaped pendent hung on a silver chain, multiple words were carved onto it, but obscured by dust that gathered under the bed.

As I was about to wipe the dust away, a knock was heard from the door and I had to quickly fling it under the bed and jump back into mine, these actions were done almost within 5 seconds, and as my head hit the pillow, the door was opened by a servant.

"Please wake up, hero Silas wants you to dress and meet him outside." The young female servant said, in her arms was black clothing that she held out for me to see.

Faking grogginess, I slowly made my way to her and picked up the bundle of clothing and attempted to put them on, but instead I failed miserably, not knowing where should my arms and head go.

Without wasting time, she placed the clothing over me and ushered me out, reaching the outside of the castle, I noticed the hero who stood rather impatiently near the flower beds.

"You took forever, come on, let's go." He muttered as I walked towards him, his hand extended and his fingers waving as he invited me to walk alongside with him.

"Where are we going?"I asked curiously, looking up at the hero who only gazed ahead of him.

"I finally got the king to approve of this," he said after a short pause "I'm bringing you to an academy for rising warriors." 

"?" 

"I don't have time to keep teaching you, the asshole king wants me to train his new soldier recruits and also teach the veteran soldiers simple magic."

"Mm? Doesn't he have magicians already?" I asked as I thought of Nayomi.

"Used to." He said bitterly.

After a while, he said, breaking the awkward atmosphere that surrounded us "Anyways, I helped you sign up for only sword classes, since I guess as dragons you don't really have to learn that much skills for humans." 

Within half an hour or so, we reached the castle and he pushed me through he gates "You're from the dragon house, by the way, though there's no dragons other than you, it's just a name for the competitive groups run by students."

In a daze, we reached the Dean's office where he introduced me and reminded the bearded man to make a speech about my attendance as a royal in the academy, to prevent unwanted incidents which would be detrimental to me.

Not that I really care either ways, it seems my lack of sleep had suddenly caught up to me, and in response, I promptly yawned and also took the chance and stretched my body.

"Oi." Oniichan said, his elbow nudging my side.

"Bleh." I groaned, my eyelids dropping as it suddenly increased in weight.

"Pardon us." The hero said with a stiff smile.

Pulling me out of the office by my ear he muttered "You lil shit, remember to come every weekday, it took me so much effort to finally get approval for this." 

Although one might think of this sight as heartwarming whereas the hero helped a young beast men slave go to school, the hero had other motives behind his actions, in his mind was thoughts like 'He'll bring back cute Lolis.' Or 'I can get a chance to meet with the female instructors here.' And also 'Now he's outta the way I can make use of my stash in peace and quiet.'
