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

As i woke up in a cave because of the sunlight, i felt something hot around me, i opened my eyes and saw a big great dragon wrapped around me as if i was a treasure he was protecting.

When i moved, he opened his big eyes and looked at me.

Veralox : "So you are already awake? Guess it's time to get up..." He said as he got up and transformed back in his human form.

Shina : "It's already afternoon i think you know"

When i tried to speak, i felt the mana around me gathering into light and illuminating the cave; Verlox already covered his eyes as if he already knew it would happen.

Veralox : "Please, stay silent for a moment and don't say anything until I am done speaking."

As he said that, I nodded and waited him to explain me what happened.

Veralox : "You don't know it because in the previous dimension there weren't any mana, but when you spoke with your parents, it was in what we call 'Ancient Language'; the words spoke in that tongue affect the mana around you depending on it's meaning, when you said 'afternoon' while thinking of sunlight, the mana around you transformed into sunlight."

It is pretty shocking; how can simple word contain so much power? As i nodded he continued his explaination.

Veralox : "Ancient Language is not something everyone can use; apart from dragons, only a few beings were able to use it, and even for dragon all they can do it say some words, or for the most powerful one sentences. I am an exception from other dragon, because i can normally speak in that language, even if i am quite limited. And the reason why you can understand me is because this language is also the root of all different language in all different world. I will transfer my knowledge of this world language to your mind to that you don't have to learn it like most of the living being living here."

As he said that, i felt something like a thread coming from his head to mine, i felt his knowledge flowing in me.

Shina : "It feel strange"

Veralox : "Look like it worked, it is the first time i use it on someone, you can now speak this world language"

Shina : " Hey Verlox, I wanted to ask you; you said that you are an exception from other dragon, but why?" I asked while tilting my head.

Veralox : "It is because I am a god in this world, the Dragon God..." Is what he said before stopping his speech and looking outside of the cave.

Veralox : "It look like i have some guest; you can go play around in the forest, but don't go too far, because of my aura there should be no agressive monster in the 2 km around this cave; don't go further than that."

I want to see what creature live in this world, is it different from Earth, he said there are no agressive monster, but there should be maybe things who look like rabbit.

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

I went into the forest around the cave, on my way i saw two black dragons flying to the cave, one was a big one around half the size of Verlox, the other one was about a quart of the black one.

The forest in this world really look different from Earth, even through insect look similar, animals are differents.

I came upon many things which looked like a rabbit, but it had paw with which he could sense the earth vibration which told him when something or someone was approaching him.

I tried to follow one for two hours, but it runned really fast and went deeper into the forest; I am already pretty far from the cave, I should go a little back.

While i was walking, I felt something hit my head from my back; I was thrown to the ground and felt something hit me in the stomach, when i looked for the aggressor, it was a boy a little older than me with the same eyes as me and Veralox, but with black eyes and hairs.

Boy : " What is a mear half doing here, next to the cave of the Dragon God?" He asked as he kicked me, the boy have an inhuman strenght; I am sure if I was made of rock, I would have shattered, I am lucky that martial training made my body stronger.

I tried to say something, but I couldn't say anything as he kicked me, I tried to rispost but because of his first strike to my head, i couldn't move properly; I was just an immobile target for him

Boy : "The truth is that I don't care for your answer; I will just bring you to the Dragon God and Father, a half in those lands is a disgrace for our dragonkind..."

As he said those word, the boy dragged me by the hairs; sometime he threw me to a tree or some boulder he found across the road, it was as if I was his doll and was playing with me... On the way, I fell unconscious.

Icris POV

1 hour before

Today, my son Serac is celebrating his 326th years, he is still young, but he need to receive the Dragon God blessing in order to be crowded as the 'Dragon Prince'.

However the Dragon God went to travel into a different world 1000 years ago, yesterday I sensed his mana coming back into this world; he should have been blessed when he was born, but the Dragon God was away; we need to get his blessing before he go into his slumber otherwise it will take maybe 5000 years before he can get it.

As we arrived to the cave, the Dragon God was in his human form, I told to my son to transform take his human form afterward I did the same.

Veralox : "Hello Icris, I didn't expect you to come today, is there something you need from me?"

Icris : "Greeting my lord, my son need your blessing in order to become my successor."

Veralox : "Last time i saw you, you didn't have a son; how many time passed since i left?"

Icris : "Around 1000 years my lord; my son is now celebrating his 326th years."

Veralox : "Is that so, before i give him my blessing, I want to know everything that happened while I was away..."

Icris :"Yes my lord; Serac, you can go play in the forest meanwhile, come back before dusk."

Serac : "Yes Father"

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

1 hours passed since I told Veralox everything that happened this millenary.

Serac : "Father, look at what I found in the forest" Said my son as he threw a little child in front of us.

The child was a little girl, around 4 or 5 years; she had bruise all over her body but was surprised me was that she is a half dragon, half dragon are a disgrace for dragon race and dragon were banned from reproducing with other race.

Icris : "Look like a dragon disobeyed the law and had a daughter, we will have to investigate that matter; it look like she was abandonned otherwise you would have come across some trouble, I don't think we would get any information from her; we might as well kill her right here."

As I said that, I sensed killing intent coming from my back, I slowly turned back and saw Veralox in his dragon form. I broke into cold sweat as I saw him staring at us; my son couldn't handle the pressure and fainted.

Icris : "Do you happen to know that half my lord?"

Veralox : "She is someone who is dear to me; you don't need to know anything else."

If I am right, that half may be the Dragon God daughter. If it is the truth, then we are screwed up; however even if I have to die, my son have to at least get out of here alive...

Icris : "My lord, may I ask you to forgive my son for his sin in exchange for my life?"

Veralox : "Your son's and your life aren't even as important as one of her hairs; however killing you here would break the balance in this world. I will forgive you and give your son my blessing in exchange for your right arm."

In the end, it is better than I anticipated; I can't blame my son for bringing us into this situation, he couldn't know that this half would be important for the Dragon God.

Icris : "Thanks my Lord..."

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

Varelox POV

Icris and his son are finally gone; I can't believe that just after I was tasked with the safety of the princess, something like that already happened. I need to be more careful, I am lucky that my lords are currently sleeping, if they saw what happened then I can't tell what would have happened to this world.

I took Shinael into my arm and brought her into the cave where i healed her, she is shaking; even if I can heal her body, I can't heal her mind.

All I can do for now is sleep beside her and wait for her to wake up...
