*********** ************** *********** **************** **************

Two weeks passed since we arrived in this part of the dungeon, everyone started to show small change.

The other's training only consisted in eating demon's meat for the first week, after this moment they started to show some change. Theirs body became stronger and they were able to sense the mana around them and manipulate their own mana. It was the first part of their training.

The ones who had the hardest time were Fiona and Nuya, Fiona is very weak against the pain. It took her four days to grow accustomed to it, however for Nuya, the problem wasn't the pain.

The fairies being among the magic creatures, her body quickly grew accustomed to absorbing magic, however her problem was mainly eating meat everyday. Fairies are nature loving being, they feel close to almost all living being; this is why they never eat any meat.

Being forced to eat meat everyday at every meal was hard for her, but she never gave up and grew accustomed to it after those two weeks.

The ones who showed the biggest change in those training were Eniel and Pan, Eniel is the one with the most combat experience among them, she quickly managed to get a hold on her power and use it.

Pan's change were the most shocking one his scales became completely grey and he was now able to use magic, normally a baby dragon wouldn't be able to use magic before he reach at least 50 years. I still don't know how old Pan is, but he became able to use transformation magic, making himself grow into a one meters long lizard. In this form I feel like our role reversed, I am the one being carried.

The second part of their training which they started last week was hunting, previously the meat was provided by Inkvir, but in order for them to become more used in fighting and using their strengthened body, they had to hunt monster for their meat them self.

Even through it may seem difficult at first, by hunting all together they were easily able to manage it; Estiel's and Fiona's new weapon were very powerful.

Fiona's bow is able to gather to magic around her to form an arrow, she was also able to had an element to the arrow by infusing her mana into it. It looked the same as me, but it was completely different; her arrow are only infused in her elemental mana, while mine are completely made of it. What change is their power, but her arrows are still able to pierce the monsters body.

Estiel's sword specialty is reinforcement, her sword is able to become either sharper or heavier by gathering mana inside. It may seem strong at first, but in the end it entirely depend on the swordman's skills.

While Fiona and Estiel worked together in hunting, Eniel, Nuya and Pan fought alone.

Eniel had no problem in killing monsters one after another from day to night, her speed greatly improved, she was able slice a monster neck in only a moment without him being able to react, not even leaving a single blood drop on her katanas. But her clothes always ended full of blood instead, but she don't really seem to mind it.

Each time she came back she was completely soaked in their blood... Being hugged by somewhat covered in blood is quite scary...

Before starting the training, she seemed to be able to sense the mana around her and using it to enchant her katanas with ice and wind magic. But after eating monster's meat, her magic was reinforced; her wind became sharper and faster while her ice hardness also went up.

Nuya didn't have any problem to hunt on her own, even through she dislike eating meat, she have no problem with killing monsters. Her ice magic under the power of the ring became bright and olcdf, it was able to completely freeze a monster in just a matter of second without leaving him a chance to escape

She hunted almost as many monsters as Eniel, it wasn't because she wanted to, but because she was underestimated by every monsters in the floor. Her little size made her seem weak and ideal as a snack. With this mindset, many monsters targeted her which led into them becoming ice statue.

Pan on the other hand wasn't hunting as many monsters as the other, when he transformed almost every monsters ran away, only the courageous and proud one stayed and fought him. This is because of the aura he is emitting as a dragon.

His scales are so though that the monsters can't even scratch them, some even broke their teeth on them, most of them end dead with a single bit in their neck or pierced with his tail. His firebreath's color also started to show some blue.

Recently, he started to go on a walk in the dungeon on his own, I am not really worried for him because I know nothing will be able to hurt him, but one day I found him surrounded by a large group of monster.

They weren't aggressive, it was the opposite, they were all shaking and seemed afraid of him, but nobody moved and just followed him. He somehow became the 'boss' of the dungeon... I hope he won't grow as a delinquent...

The second part of their training also had another objective, it was to hunt the type of monster with the affinity you wanted. For example Eniel preferred to hunt darkness type of monster, with an affinity to wind and ice; I don't know what kind of training she did with Verlox, but she is able to use those three affinity.

Estiel and Fiona just chose respectively Fire and Earth affinity, it was because it is the only type of magic they were able to use.

As for Nuya, she ate only Light and Ice monsters, Pan was the only one eating all of them, he didn't seem to care what type of monster it was, he simply ate it and never seemed to be satiated.

My training on the other hand wasn't any different, only meditating and fighting, I only managed to absorbed a fragment of the power inside of me within those two week. It slowly changed the color of my red and golden eyes, adding a slight purple glow and white light in the center of them... or at least this is what they told me.

Time to time, I manage to enter the state I had when I fought against the Cerbals but it happen randomly in fight. I still managed to enter it on my own by meditating, but it take a long time.

I observed the color emanating from my body in this state, it was coming from my skin, what seemed to be some scale were stuck to my skin and my eyes turned completely purple.

Today was the day we hold our meeting, we had to decide our next action; we needed to exit the dungeon, and we were finally strong enough to do so.

*********** ************** *********** **************** **************

I arrived at the camp after finishing my usual training, I was late for the meeting; it was supposed to be one hours ago but I played with Pan and didn't see the time pass.

Shina : " Sorry, I am late ! " I apologized.

Estiel : " Yes you are ! Like always, but this time seriously one hours ?! "

Fiona : " What do you mean ? She arrived just in time. " Fiona asked as she tilted her head.

Estiel : " She is late... The time I gave was was one hour earlier than yours... I somehow knew she would be late, but not that much. "

This tale has been unlawfully lifted from Royal Road. If you spot it on Amazon, please report it.

Shina : " Sorry... "

I joined the meeting and sat on Eniel's legs while Pan and Nuya just sneak into my shirt, I became accustomed to it, if I didn't do so, she would look at me with puppy eyes all the day until I yield... I can't win against her.

Fiona : " Fine, then let's start the meeting ! " She said as she clapped her hands.

Fiona : " The main subject of today, what should we do now ? "

Shina : " Aren't we just going back to Holy Kiel ? " I answered as Eniel was patting my head.

Estiel : " I think it would be better to stay here for a moment. "

Fiona : " Personally, I agree with Estiel; we can continue to train here, it's not like someone we really have to return right ? " She said while letting a sigh out.

They are right, Fiona was mistreated by her family who sent her to school just to exile her because she was different from them, she lost her mother who was the only other important one to her and now only got us.

As for Estiel, her situation is similar to Fiona, she lost her mother and Lindia; the only one she have left is Veyna, but she was probably saved by Verlox and unlike her, Veyna is treated like a princess; even without Estiel with her she will be able to live on.

And for me ? I am sure Veyna is alright, the only one who truly make me worried is Verlox... What is he doing right now ? I still remember the face he made when he saw me being teleported, it was a mix of anger against himself and worry for me.

But I am sure he won't destroy the whole world just to look for me... right ?

Shina : " I understand, then you want to keep training here for a while right ? "

Estiel : " Exactly, we aren't really in a hurry, we should stay a few months here before going back. We should at least be able to defend ourself. "

Shina : " Eniel, Nuya are you okay with that ? "

Eniel : " No problem. " She calmly answered as she continued to pet my head.

Nuya : " I am fine !! " Said a little head coming out of my shirt, Pan only left a growl out like saying he didn't care.

Estiel : " Fine, then the second problem... "

When the meeting ended, I tried to get up, but I couldn't move my arms or legs, Eniel was blocking them.

Shina : " Eniel ? Can you let me go please ? "

Eniel : " No... " She didn't even show a sign of hesitation

Shina : " I need to go please. "

Eniel : " I said no. Lately I didn't spend enough time with you. " Not enough ?!

Shina : " You cuddle me at least 3 hours per days !! "

Eniel : " As I said, not enough... "

I tried to get up using all my strength, but she simply grabbed my tail and stroke it, all my strength disappeared and I fell back in her arms.

Shina : " *Hah...Hah...* P-Please stop... " I begged out of breath.

Eniel : " No... As your sister, I have to make sure you feel loved... " She said showing a slight smile before stroking my tail and petting my hairs... After a few hours, I lost fainted.

*********** ************** *********** **************** **************

At the same time in a dark cavern, only one place was illuminated by a small light coming from a hole in the roof. In the place that was illuminated, a man sat on a throne with pure black hairs and cold golden shining eyes, he had tall a woman by his side with long black hairs.

Before him were a few old men, they were all kneeling before him with anxious face, the man was emitting bloodthirst. Those old men are being that would inspire fear to anyone, but in front of this man they were worthless.

If Shina was here, she would recognize this man as Verlox, the Dragon God and the woman as Veyna.

Veralox : " So... Did you find her ? " He asked coldly waiting for their answer, they all hesitated for a moment before one finally start to speak.

Elder Dragon : " Milord we are still searching for her, but we still didn't... "

Veralox : " It's been one month and you still didn't even find any lead ?! I don't care how but find her ! And if I learn she was hurt... " His eyes showed a slight red glow which made everyone in the room freeze.

Elder Dragon : " M-Milord, we may have an information. " The old man said, trying to calm Veralox's anger.

Veralox : " Ohhh, speak. " He said showing a smirk.

Elder Dragon : " It seem that a few weeks ago a dragon sensed a battle between the Fairy Queen Isendel and a young girl, a demihuman. Apparently he felt that she was using dark mana and managed to win. "

Veralox : " I see... Isendel huh, it mean that she is in Friesel. Tell to the dragons to search the whole country, if someone try to stop them... Destroy them. Once you find her, bring her to me. "

Elder Dragon : " Yes my lord. "

*********** ************** *********** **************** **************

At the same moment in another place :

Twenty priest were gathered in a white room at the top of a tower, it was the top of the Holy Church of the Light Goddess.

The priests were channeling their energy in a large magic circle, which was glowing of a blue light. The priests were doing this for now one whole week, they switched with another group every days.

Only one man was looking at their doing, it was the pope of the Holy Church and the one who was communicating with their goddess once every years.

This year, she told him to gather an army for a new Holy War; but this time, something was different. She gave him two new instructions, the first one was to ask Holy Kiel for their holy sword, and the second one was to 'summon' her champion.

Usually her champion is a chosen one from the Angels, but this time she wanted a summoned one and gave him the knowledge she needed in order to do so.

Today was the day where the hero would arrive, he needed to be ready to welcome him, the blue magic circle started to shine even brighter before taking the shape of an human and disappearing.

Only a crying young boy who looked like one of those spoiled young noble kid appeared at the center of the circle.

Every priests were expecting a soldier or a true warrior, they were disappointed, nonetheless this boy was summoned here; from the goddess's knowledge he should have obtained a power comparable to a dragon's one.

Pope : " Welcome young hero. My name is Jaerl, I am the pope of the Holy Church of this world. May I know your name ? "

The young boy looked everywhere around him before slightly calming down and answering.

Boy : " My name is Keniro... My name is Keniro Amrd "
