I stared at Elena and Caramel for a while. A sigh escaped me as I looked at the black gauntlets. They were going a bright red color. "Mistress the gloves appeared out of nowhere when you lost consciousness. Then when the Fanged wolves came charging at us you charged head on in dragon demihuman form. You mostly used your tail to sweep them then you slaughtered them with your hands.

First I started with those strange dreams. Now this, Dragon's Tears, these gauntlet have a long history. The dragon princess who out of all the dragons among her race was kind, gentle and honest. She wasn't like the most of the dragons where they're short tempered. Her story was sad, her lover was on the other side of the valley that they the dragons lived in. But their family was always in a feud.

She believed nothing could go wrong with her love. A sigh left my lips as a stared in sorrow at the gauntlets. Seems I knew the original owner really well.

"Dragon's Tears, these gauntlets were created from her tears and her skin because her love and devotion to her lover. To whom was betrayed by his family when they found out he was in love with their enemy. She too was disowned when her family found out," I said.

"He had ask her not to resent his family before his death, so she had not taken revenge. Instead she mourned his death for a long time. She never wanted to be involved in their family feuds."

"Mistress what are you talking about," Elena asked. "The history of this gauntlet," I said in a sad tone. Her bloodline ended with her. The ice empress dragon, who lived alone without family or friends. She lived with her servants in the mountains in seclusion. Centuries had past since her death but she was still well known even now. The kind gentle girl was known as a saint and many who did wrong passing her mountain were killed. If they annoyed her by leading a group she'd use her sources to look for the root and cut it off.

"This dress also has a history," I sighed. The reason why I liked this dress might be because I'm getting emotional attached and fusing with that dream me. But my guts tell me it's not a dream.

"Master what kind of history does this dress have," Caramel asked.

"A tragic past of a old friend. She was the sacred priestess used as a peace treaty to stop the war between them and the dragons race's long war. They had been wearing for 899 long years. So the dragons demanded that the princess be married to their prince. She who wanted to travel and be free from her duties didn't like the idea. Rather she wanted to experience love herself."

"So when she was locked in the tower in the dragon's territory she made a vow to herself. She then clawed out her throat, losing her beautiful voice. To spite the dragons and for her own freedom that she once had."

"What happened to her after that," Elena winced.

"Her fiancé was angered by her and forced himself on her. But instead she used her life to threaten him. She then jumped out of the tower window. This dress is made from her feathers afterwards. After she had lost her voice, she never did regret that since it was a reminder to her that she had lost a lot of things as a princess that was used to stop a war between her people. She loved traveling around worlds, no one knew what happened to the 89th generation princess after she went traveling. Many guessed she probably died in some world she was in or that she reincarnated with her memories attached."

"Rather she had a sadness and lonely aura to her," I said softly. Why do I remember this but not my life in earth. It's strange like I encountered her before and heard her life story before or I witnessed her sad life but knew I couldn't do much for her. Who was I before? Why do I know historical events from another world. Rather why was I not shocked that I was so sentimental to the dress and gauntlets. I felt a strong wave of sadness when I looked at these two things.

"Mistress you seem to know the origin of these things. Perhaps you were related to them, or close," Elena guessed.

"I don't know....my age is 15 so it doesn't match and also there's the fact that I don't know what world we're in. Nor how many centuries passed by," I said.

Wait what am I saying. I'm not making sense anymore. What's wrong with me after that dream.

"Change is always there, no one knows when it'll occur," Airi said. That last part of when she was condemned and forced to be reborn onto Earth as her punishment. Who did she say that for. Rather I felt strange like I was her and she's me. But that's not possible I'm human....... wait my status no longer shows human? Does that mean it never considered me a human to begin with.

"Who is Airi? What were they? I don't get what these dreams are telling me," I said.

"Mistress are you ok," Caramel asked.

"I'm fine let's get going. I was just talking to myself," I answered her.

"Understood," Elena said. "Do we search for a city then."

"Please do," I asked.

The humans went into hiding, the soul beasts are ruling. Where is the civilization here. Rather where are the humans living in this world. Elena sniffed the air and shook her head. I nearly forgot she's a demon lord. Just that she looks like a Oni. But her horns on her forehead seems tiny at the moment. Well she's not in battle so it doesn't seem too enlarge. It's as big as the tip of your pinkie at the moment was all I could think about when I looked at it.

"Mistress you thought something rude didn't you," Elena said.

I avoided her eyes as I shook my head. "There's no trace of human scent here. Rather there's more beasts in this plain than humans. Seems there's no trail either."

A sigh came out of me, if you're wondering yes I'm stressed. About the dreams, this world, these items. I mean I know information I didn't have before I came here out of nowhere. "Caramel scan the surroundings, then tell me the closest exit out of these plains."

"Understood Master, I shall look into it now," Caramel answered back. We stood there as a red beam of light filled the whole field. It took 30 minutes of waiting before she looked back at us. "Master there is a exit to the south of here. About 980 kilometers away. Do you want to map and mark this place as well as it's inhabitants."

"Please do," I asked.

"Will do master," Caramel said.

"Elena can you carry me to cross the distance," I asked.

"Gladly Mistress," Elena said. I stared at her soft straight silver hair that she tied up into a bun.

"I shall do my best to rid us of the beasts that tries to harm you my Mistress," Elena said with a straight face.

It's embarrassing but she gave me a piggyback ride as she charged full ahead as Caramel followed alongside us. I'm wondering how can she keep up with us, I mean Elena's level is high and she's a demon.

"I'm a robot but my main strength is my speed," Caramel bragged. I forgot this girl had telepathy.

"That's rude master you created me. So how come it's that you forgot even that," she pouted. Her chestnut hair flew in the wind as she crossed her arms while running next to us.

"Then can I ask you does these things I saw seem real or more like a dream," I asked.

"Forgive me for saying this, if you can feel such sensations in a dream as you call it then it's no longer a dream. It becomes real, whether or not it might be your memories. I don't know," Caramel answered.

"I forgot she was newly born robot," I muttered under my breath.

Elena stopped in her tracks as she noticed something wrong. She dropped me onto the ground and dodged. A giant paw had pressed down where she stood before. "A Turtle Tiger," Caramel stated.

"It seems as tall as a normal elephant on earth. It's also red in color, that shell seems to be green though."

"Leave this to me Mistress," Elena said.

"Didn't you hear me say the size seems wrong," I answered back.

"Master this is but a teen Turtle Tiger, an Adult is bigger. Also this thing seems to be a 10 tier soul beast. Level 50," Caramel said.

"Fine Elena exhaust him and let Caramel kill him for some experience points since she's still level 4," I ordered.

Elena nodded and charged at the turtle tiger with her iron spear. She quickly side step as the turtle tiger tried to stomp her again. Instead she rolled away to its left and stabbed its left paw. A trace of blue blood came out if the turtle tiger as it went into a fit of rage. The turtle tiger was annoyed, a human had injured it. Rather these humans were supposed to be food not him.

"Is that all you can do stomp at me," Elena taunted. She raised her spear as she swung her spear over her head at the claws coming towards her. A smile appeared as she knew her taunting got it. "Can't you use more strength or are you a baby."

I face palmed as I saw her playing with the turtle tiger. Yep she's playing him as she stabs at his two front arms and she slashes and hacks him away. He's charging her in anger, she's not even sweating but the turtle tiger is being led. I started to sweat when I saw her do an evil smile as she cut off his two front legs. He roared in pain at us as if begging us to let him go.

"All yours now Caramel," Elena bowed.

Caramel walked up to the turtle tiger and apologized first before she punches her right arm at it's forehead. Elena smiled in satisfied manner at Caramel.

"How'd you notice the middle of the forehead is the weak spot," Elena asked.

"I scanned the whole plain so I know all their habits and points on their bodies," Caramel answered.

"Oh be sure to never be my enemy," Elena said.

"That's only if you betray Master," Caramel answered.

"There's no worries there then. I will follow whatever Mistress has decided," Elena declared proudly.

 I'll have a look at Caramel's status.

 Name Caramel   Level  30 Type  Robot (version 1.02) Gender  Female Strength  A Telepathy  S Cooking  B Agility  SS Loyalty  Obedient to its master, it will never betray you.

 So she wasn't lying about her speed. Looks like we're finally out of there. And no I didn't use the Turle Tiger for points I pitied it ran into us. 

 My eyes went to the wasteland before me in disgust. This land is too barren for a city or town to develop in. Caramel let's keep heading South for now so we get away from the plains. "Ok Master." 

Elena is carrying me on her shoulder as if I'm a child. I'll have you know I'm 15 years old. This is embarrassing for even me.
