The next morning I woke up with a big smile on my face. I haven’t slept like this ever. Even in my previous life, I don’t remember being this happy after waking up.

Twixie is there, still sleeping in the sea of pillows on the bed. I guess I’ll wake her up for breakfast when I get ready.

“Good Morning, ... Velkra…” I hear someone.

There! You just said good morning in a professional manner! What’s wrong when you say my name! don’t say it if you are going to be that embarrassed about it!

Seriously… I cant say that loud, can i?

I guess this will last forever too…

It was like she was waiting outside my door, all the time, just to say good morning to me when I woke up.

I better make it worth it.

“Oh. Good morning, Felia. You look beautiful as always.” I say.

“Ah!... Hmm…” Says Felia and I can see smoke rising from her head as her face is red.

I went too far!

Gotta change the subject!

“Anyway, What about my clothes? Where’d you guys put it?” I ask.

“Um… it’s in the wardrobe but…” she stops as she says that.

“But what?” I ask.

“We had a suit custom made for you… along with a cloak… overnight…” she says as she looks down fidgeting.

“Custom made suit? Overnight?” I ask.

“Yes. We had to decide on something as a lowly gift that’s when we decided that your taste in clothes was quite peculiar and ended up ordering a suit overnight.” She says.

“You guys made a suit overnight? But mine were special clothes. Ones that would transform with me…” I say.

“Please Rest easy. We had that taken care of. It’s made of special Mana cloth. It’ll have the same effect. And the cloak has the same property.” She says.

“Oh! I see! Thanks Felia!” I say.

At that she loses control agin and looks down fidgeting.

Look at this woman. She can’t keep her composure when she’s around me.

Apart from that. It sure is a good news that I’m gonna have something new to wear.

“Can you bring it now? I wanna get changed…” I ask.

“At once! I will be right back!” she says and runs off.

After a while she returns and shows me the suit. Several maids came tagging along too.

She shows me a suit of sky blue color, with black embroidery. The hood is lined with some fur. It looks stunning. Just a bit too flashy. I think that’s what the cloak will serve for.

She then shows me the cloak. It’s like a cape without a hood. Since I already had a hood in the suit, there was no need to have one in the cloak. The cloak is of dark grey color. It lives up for its name in concealment as there is also enchantments on it for concealing one’s presence.

“Can I put these on?” I ask.

“Certainly, Lady Velkra.” She says as that she waves a hand to the maids.

The maids surround me and take me to the wardrobe.

You’re asking me why I am not resisting this time?

It’s simple. I can’t win! They will do it by force anyway! Even if I’m an Elder Dragon! They are NOT afraid of me.

As I get dragged to the wardrobe they change me into my clothes.

There’s not much to talk about my clothes. It’s just that they are super awesome and comfortable. I’m surprised that this was made in a single night. Must have been a tall order for the tailors I think.

I get out from the wardrobe and walk around showing Felia how I look.

“You look very good in it Lady Velkra.’ She says.

This time there was no embarrassment here. I could just see a gaze of admiration.

Jeez… how high up am I in her eyes?

“Can we go have some breakfast?” I ask.

If you discover this tale on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the violation.

“Let us go then. It was time for breakfast already.” She says.

Honestly, I wonder how I can go on with this much hunger I’m feeling right now.

I haven’t eaten anything after that camp. Even they wouldn’t have eaten anything.

The dinner was probably over once we arrived here so everyone was so tired that they went to sleep without eating anything.

Shoot. I would’ve forgotten about Twixie again…

“Twixie… Wake up… It’s time for breakfast…” I say in a low voice to wake her up.

“Unnh… Hmm… okay… It’s morning already?” she asks me as she sits up rubbing her eyes.

“Yeah. Lets go and eat some food. You must be hungry too right?” I ask.

“Hmm… I’m hungry…” she says.

“Then wake up. Lets go.”

She then flies alongside me, this time without going in my hair.

We walk down the starway into the big hall and find the Weskin family waiting for us.

“Good Morning<, Lady Velkra.” Says Albart bowing.

“Good Morning” “Good Morning” says every member of the Family

Carmine looks freshe. Lucy seems energetic. Albart is top-notch but Caryl looks like she’s sick.

“What’s wrong Caryl? You look sick…” I ask her.

“Actually… I am not feeling well since this morning.” She says.

She looks a bit pale and I can just tell from looking that something’s wrong.

I look at her for a second.

Hmm?

Oh. It can’t be…

“Tell me, Caryl. Did you throw up this morning?” I ask her.

She and Albart look at me surprised.

“Yes… but… how did you know that?” she asks.

“Just a hunch,” I smile as I say that.

You should get it. Once I focus my World Perception enough I can feel it. A separate life. Another presence, inside her.

Honestly, I’m amazed that this skill can sense this too …

“It seems that you might be pregnant. Go and have a cjeckup by your doctor.” I say.

They blink for a second then Albart looks at Caryl in amazement.

“Is it true?” he asks.

“I don’t really know… it could be… are you sure Lady Velkra?” she asks as she looks at me.

There I sno doubt about it. There’s no way a skill on a scale this big would be mistaken.

“I’m pretty sure. I can sense a different presence.” I say.

At that moment, the face of every single person in attendance lit up in excitement.

“Congratulations! Mother! Father! I’m so happy!” screams Carmine.

Not very noble like I say. I guess nobles are different everywhere.

“Thank you.. Caryl…” says Albart with tears in his eyes.

“I’m happy… Albart.” She says as she hugs him crying.

It’s pretty beautiful view If you ask me. I’m glad I was the one who gave them the news. This will be the best moment in my life to. Because they can’t hear my heart pounding with happiness.

I don’t know why but I feel very happy.

“Lady Velkra, May we ask for your blessings?” says Albart as he kneels in front of me.

It took a while for me to understand.

Twixie is flying all around happy too. I gotta ask her a question though…

“Twixie! Come here!” I say.

“What is it Master! It’s a baby! When will it come?! Tell me!” she says as she gets close to my face.

“Calm down already. It’ll take a long time. Patience and care is the key.” I say.

“Boo…”

“No ‘boo’. Anyway, I wanted to ask a question. What’s a blessing?” I ask her.

Albart is still waiting with Caryl for a blessing.

“You have a basic skill called a [Blessing]. It gives them the protection of the Elder Dragon that gave them the blessing. They will essentially become your subordinates.” She says.

Become my subordinate? But he is a noble here isn’t he?

“Why? Is it not going to cause opposition by your King?” I ask Albart.

“That worry is completely unnecessary. The King would never oppose us from becoming your subordinates. Instead, it would be an honor for the Kingdom of Diacis to have a noble that is The Subordinate of an Elder Dragon.” He says.

“I see…”

If it wouldn’t cause opposition for them then it’s okay.

But then wouldn’t I have to meet the King?

Whatever, I’ll cross that bridge when I have to. I don’t want them to be disappointed.

“But… Would I need to bless every single one of you?” I ask him.

“There is no need. Once the head of a family or a clan or any race pledges his or her loyalty the subordinates and his family members under him become Subordinated too.” He says.

“But why me? Why do you want to pledge loyalty to me?” I ask.

This is a critical question. Why does he want my blessing.

“I am sure that we would be useful for you. It would be an honor to have you as our superior. And the most important matter, we will raise this child to be fitting of your servant.” He says.

“But you shouldn’t change loyalties so easily…” I say.

“As I said before, The Great King would never oppose this. And as for my loyalty, I would never think of betraying your Excellence. I swear on my life for that.”

This took a sudden turn.

Out of the blue, he wants to be my subordinate? What caused this decision?

“What made you to take this step? Is it something from last night?” I ask.

“you certainly are wise, Lady Velkra. We could never hide anything from you from the beginning could we?” he says as he grins.

So they already wanted to be my Subordinates? Is it a decision for their benefit? I don’t have anything that they could feed off.

“You aren’t making this decision based on some bad intentions are you?” I ask to make sure.

“Rest easy, Lady Velkra. We decided to pledge our allegiance once we heard everything from our daughter Carmine. You will sure be an Excellent Master for us Servants. We have no ill intentions that we would harbor for you. You are our family’s savior and the person who gave us the blessed news of a child. We cannot be traitorous to the person so benevolent.” He says.

He sure is serious about it.

If they are that serious about it, why don’t I just give them what they want. I’ll probably have a bit influence over this Kingdom once I do so. I don’t plan on taking over or anything.

“Alright then. Is every single person here?” I ask.

“Yes. We are.’ They say in unsion.

There are about 30 servants including males and females. There is Felia knelling beside me. then there is the Weskin family in front, kneeling with their heads down.

“Is every one here consented for my blessing? I need your consent for this.” I ask.

“We swear our loyalty to Great Velkra.” They all Say at once.

Did they rehearse or something for this last night?

“Then,”

I look through the skill of [Blessing] in my mind. It does just as Twixie told me. It works when every single person under a head has agreed to be my subordinate. It gives them an Identity. The identity to belong to an Elder Dragon. They receive gifts in return. These gifts are buffs they receive. Their skills and stats become higher. They can learn new magic. Gain new elements. Probably gain a special skill, cause they are hard to get.

I put my hand on front of me.

“Then I will now give you my… [Blessing]” I say.

Once I say that, every single person in attendance glows.

“Woooah! What’s happening Twixie?!” I ask her in panic.

“Don’t worry. They’re going through an evolution. Humans don’t normally evolve, but influenced by a Divine Beast, they will evolve to house the energy they gain. Just to make their bodies and minds stronger, they evolve.” She says.

“I see…” I say.

The glowing fades after some time and everyone falls asleep on the spot. Every single one of them.

This sure took a VERY huge turn.

I thought I was gonna eat some food~!

Why~?
