We sneak away and cast an illusion spell on the tower, as if it were a ruin ready to collapse.

Then we escaped into the woods and rocks, with no paths.

Valiantly, he had returned to the village and saw the farmers being manhandled.

He wanted to intervene, but he was put on the ground and put in irons for treason against the empire.

Then the manacom we'd taken from the academy rang.

"Vermithraxa, it's Rogue. I'm alone and you can speak freely.

You must know that troops are on your tail. You're not naive or stupid.

I know you're with Aqua and Fuchur, who are also wanted. It's nothing personal, but the executioner wants dragon on the menu.

Deliver us the dragon and make yourself useful to the empire. Maybe you'll have peace and we'll reconsider our position just for you. It's a win-win situation.

I'm only doing this out of friendship for you. I'm risking myself and the academy if the king learns of our little arrangement. Good morning and farewell. "

Fuchur: "Aren't you gonna turn us in? Huh, all teary-eyed."

"Are you dumb or what?

Worry about Valiant!

We couldn't do anything for him, except deliver some bad dragon."

I use the manacom again and ask him where the last attacks took place. The place here is very quiet.

He then sent me a list of places further east and along the trade routes with the Elves, in the passes, favorite places for wyvern ambushes and those imitating their savagery.

So we flew eastward to the mountain range of the Anvil, land of dwarves and their underground cities and infernal forges.

Flap, flap, flap.

It was nice to fly in fours and make conversation in flight.

We talked about everything and nothing and I think that's the beginning of happiness: regain carefree.

And relying on others and feeling others relying on you.

I felt good with them.

Now I'd do anything for them. Loved, I felt my strength growing tenfold.

Aqua, the only adult in our group, was better orientated than us, and gave us practical tips that my mom should have taught me.

We were approaching the Helgen Valley south of Blancherive and Rivebois.

The town of Helgen was ravaged a few years ago and has been struggling to get back on its feet and the recent attack has forced the villagers to flee to Blanche rive where a large garrison can ensure their safety.

We sang and announced our peaceful arrival to the inhabitants. Some shouted and wanted to commit suicide by throwing themselves into our clutches.

Poor desperate people.

We blocked the exit from the town and people screamed in fear like pigs at the slaughterhouse.

A woman wanted to offer herself in exchange for the life of her little girl and I started to cry.

This story has been stolen from Royal Road. If you read it on Amazon, please report it

"Madam, we don't eat humans. We come from the empire to rid you of flesh-eating dragons.

We mean you no harm, but we'd like to know where you last saw them.

If you have any information' stick a spear with a coloured pennant and the message on it or next to it.

We can read the common. We won't bother you and we'll protect you."

We flew to the Duer ruins. But there was a strange smell floating around.

It's like the smell of food and urine, it smells bad and not bad at the same time. Kind of like Herve cheese. It stinks, but when you know what it is, it smells good.

It's got wyvern pheromones! And a dominant one!

Fuchur was squeezing and squealing in terror. Aqua was strange and we were uncomfortable.

Then, suddenly, a scream that made our blood run cold...

A cry of wyvern. We had just entered her territory and she was going to let us know.

She was six feet taller than Aqua and must have been twice our size and three times Fuchur.

She blew as she cut us off and forced us to land, which is what Aqua did.

We followed her and I threw a shield over the four of us.

Grroooooar made the black wyverne.

It had big teeth and big talons and terrible spikes. It was scary and we were terrified. A bearded skin hanging from his jaw made him even scarier. Bearded, they were black, pointed scales.

He inflated it and his jaw widened a good 2 times and we were terrified.

He jumped on Aqua after doing a series of parades and push-ups and nods. He put his front paw on her neck and bit her horns behind her neck and stuck her head in the ground.

Auberone wanted to run away but his look wanted to say it all in the style you run away and I'll bite you. The same for Fuchur who was about to take a blow to his manhood.

Aqua stiffened and Falkor climbed on top of her and made a mating simulacrum.

"You beautiful, reasonable female. You stay alive!!. "

Then she broke free, Aqua panting in terror and subdued by his 25 meters of muscles and scales.

Then it moved towards, rather ran towards Auberone but I intervened:

"Grrrrrr. Not afraid of you, big buck!"

He took his big paw and wanted to crush my head but I resisted with force. But his strength was incredible.

"HAHA, young red female very strong. Me like it."

"We submit but be careful not to hurt us or else..."

"Otherwise what, young redhead? "

And an electric shock ran down my spine and stopped at my lower belly and it wasn't unpleasant at all.

Then he grabbed Auberon by the spine and she fell into stage fright and let go...pee herself...

He let her go and said :

"Too young!!! and you, little dragon, if I eliminate you I would lose your mother. You still smell like eggshells but I could make you lay if I take care of you now"

and he grabbed him behind the neck and put him on his back. and the other one squeezed his belly, close to gutting him and Aqua whimpered.

Fuchur screamed and tried in vain to free himself and he screamed:

"Whaaaaaaaaaaah, whaaaah, nooooo he wants me... r! Naaaaaaan! " and he wrapped his tail between his legs and Falkor let him go and giggled.

"Whoaaahahahahahaa! You guys are pathetic dragons! You look like humans!

HAHAHAHAHAHA. Welcome to my land.!!!!

Frankly, haha, and he rolled on the floor laughing. Look, I don't know your story, but if you'd met any other dragon than me, I think you'd be in the early stages of digestion...

You're dragons? No, you're not.

Come into my lair. You have everything to learn again. You know NOTHING! You look like you just hatched from an egg."

Me. "We were raised with humans."

"I knew that! Just the way you fly, you're like four migrating turkeys."

Lesson one: "When you smelled me, what was your first impression?"

Aqua: "Fear."

"That's right", Falkor says.

"When a dragon rises, the mountain knows it, and it's silent.

When it Flys, EVERYONE knows it's there and it's probably your turn.

When a dragon appears, it's death in front of you...

When a dragon speaks: it's the thunder that rumbles

When I roar: It's the end of the world!

And I want to be called Lord!

Falkor is for those closest to me.

Do you understand that?"

"Yes, Lord" in draconian. (Auberone learns quickly)

"So the rules are simple: You have submitted so you must accept my rules.

They are absolute. If you don't agree, run away because I will kill you!

Here, I am the lord and this is my land. I have the right of life and death over all creatures that breathe.

Then I have my wife Aurora, she's a butterfly dragon. Her wings are beautiful but fragile. We have a brood.

I kill on sight anyone who comes near the nest. There'll be no warnings.

You are my harem now and you owe me your obedience.

The food I'm bringing back is for Aurora. You are strictly forbidden to touch it!

You enter only IF and ONLY IF she invites you in.

Her orders are Absolute as they are mine.

The products of the hunt are pooled and I eat first, followed by Aurora, Aqua of You of you and you of you.

You are Vermithraxa, Auberone and Fuchur.

I don't understand what red dragons do with water dragons. But, I see you red ones have a good heart. It's not like Crazy Ignar!"

We bowed our heads as his name was spoken.

Falkor, far from being a fool, raised his head and looked at us, spied on us and said:

...don't tell me...

If he did not look down

GRRRRR

We get down on all fours, in submission

GRRR.

And his grumbling snout scraped our ears and he calmed down.

"You're victims, I can understand that.

What about Fushia?"

"Fushia?"

"Yes, Fushia! Your mother!"

We cried.

"Don't tell me that..."

"Yes, sorry, we only had two days!"

grRRRRRRR GROOAOAAALL!

FURY!

"Bastard!"

"She sacrificed herself so that we could flee. It ate our brothers and sisters and it killed mom and ate her."

Cryings

Falkor wept!

"Why did you choose him? Tell me why." (He spoke to an invisible Fushia.. He was in love with her but she was the mate of Ignar..)

Then, he turn his head violently

"And how did you come to be among humans?"

"We became friends with a blind man who raised us as his children."

"You were very lucky. Most dragons end up crushed to the bottom of a cliff or devoured by wolves.

Wait here, I'll talk to my darling."

Then, about an hour later, he came back and said to follow him.

And we saw his lair.
