Before then levitating all three at once and inputting mana in all three causing Kaylan to then quickly appear by his side surprising the young prince.
Causing him to then adorably pat the spot next to him causing Kaylan to then slightly shake her head causing the young prince to then hesitantly stop the transfer of mana before then looking up to Kaylan causing Kaylan to then sigh.
"Three Legendary Elemental Cores.. Is there a reason why you're pushing yourself to such lengths? You greatly 'dislike' being overwhelmed before.. what changed?"
Kaylan asked causing the young prince to then slightly nod before then adorably laying down.
"If you knew Hanah would suffer to keep everyone safe, what would you do? What if you only knew Hanah would suffer but not know when? Wh-What if Hanah was scared because no one could save Hanah?"
The young prince worriedly asked causing Hanah having now realized the young prince quite possibly knew something similar to Stella's own vision to then sit down next to him where the young prince had previously patted before then slightly nodding.
"I would change nothing.. or at the very least make it 'appear' that way? I would make an intricate web of plans, contingencies, reprisals, and so forth?"
"However, If suffering was the only 'requirement' that would only truly mean I'd need only ever attempt to lessen the suffering and prepare more for my own reprisals?"
Kaylan explained surprising the young prince having had barely understood what any of that meant.
Before then hesitantly nodding and laying his head on her lap causing her to then slightly frown and the young prince to then frown himself surprising her before then ultimately being cut off.
"Does Kaylan hate Aurel?"
The young prince worriedly asked surprising Kaylan even more causing her to then slightly shake her head.
"I'm a Celestial Dragon Aspect.. If I did dislike you you'd know it, as for the 'reason' why I'm less enthusiastic and don't 'react' as the others do is quite simple.."
"I'm a Dragon Aspect being forced to do menial things with very little if not no time to myself all the while unable to truly spread my wings, I'm nothing more than a bird in a gilded cage"
Kaylan answered surprising the young prince to no end causing him to then immediately become teary before then sitting up and hugging Kaylan to the fullest causing her to then quickly frown.
Before then almost immediately being cut off by a teary young prince causing him to then quickly whisper into Kaylan's ear surprising her to no end having not expected such an answer causing Kaylan to then surprisingly sigh.
"You make me regret confessing such things.. you shouldn't promise such things to a Dragon Aspect! You're fortunate it was me and not one of those disgusting Abyssal Aspects! They'd rob you blind even if you're Lady Lilith's favorite!"
"They'd simply do so for the bragging rights alone! Why is it that you're so oblivious to such things? Have they really not taught you common sense?!"
"I realize you're still but a child but the mere fact that you've learned magic, assassination, poisoning, and languages galore, merely dismisses it all through such naive thinking alone!"
Kaylan frustratingly ranted surprising everyone causing Lily to then helplessly smile at the abyssal comment.
All the while causing the young prince to then adorably pause in utter confusion all of which allowed Kaylan to immediately continue unhampered.
"Hanah do me a favor and teach him what it means to be an Imperial Prince of The Celestial Empire or did you simply forget?! At least then he'd have 'some' common sense until Princess Noel teaches him such things!"
"Thinking of which, why has it taken you so long to learn common?! You just spoke in clear sentences and didn't use Aurel this and Aurel that!"
"Has no one ever realized if they simply asked you to whisper into their ears they'd get that every time?"
"Why not just use an amplification crystal and simply whisper all the time?! Forget my previous reasons, the sheer frustration of it all drives me mad!"
"I'm going to have a word with Celestia but before I do, conjure me up a bottle of Klarine's Bloodwine!"
"And go ahead with those ridiculous cores! If they truly want to act up I'll put them in their place but for now, at least try to pace yourself. If not, I'll tell Stella you're trying for another coma!"
Kaylan ranted further causing the young prince to then surprisingly giggle before then conjuring up three of Klarine's Bloodwines and another three for Lily causing both Lily and Kaylan to then nod.
Before then surprisingly conjuring up a couch and sitting together causing Hanah having felt 'some' guilty for forgetting her earlier promise to then hesitantly look to both Octavia and Elyris before then ultimately sighing and sitting with the others.
All the while this was happening the young prince had immediately returned to his previous task of experimenting with his Elemental Cores.
This story originates from Royal Road. Ensure the author gets the support they deserve by reading it there.
Before then returning to his previous three and continuing where he left off causing him to then adorably brainstorm.
If one could change a core by influencing it as Keres had done wouldn't that mean he was able to change the origin of such flames?
Causing the young prince to then curiously nod after remembering Ada had in fact given him the original bloodline of The Black Dragon of Destruction which was in fact an ancestral form in its own right.
However, Ada had only ever allowed everyone else to have the extremely deluded variants of her bloodline, meaning not even The Black Dragon Aspect itself was even close to the original at least that's what Aurora had told him.
Causing him to then hesitantly nod having not completely understood what she meant before then adorably nodding and curiously tapping into that bloodline.
All the while adorable transferring whatever strange energy he could find into all three cores directly causing them to then quickly turn black and Adel to then finally make an appearance?
After seemingly sleeping all this time before then hugging the young prince's arm as if strangely curious.
Causing the young prince to then excitedly nod before then happily continuing causing Adel to then knowingly surround them in a large barrier confusing the young prince.
Before then immediately being cut off by all three cores cracking at once and subsequently exploding into the blackest and most confusing mist?
Causing Adel to then wave her hand resulting in it immediately dissipating as if she had simply swatted away a nuisance.
Revealing that of three humanoid figures made of colorful sparklingly black flame that looked to be wearing ominous black armor made from a fusion of colorful obsidian and sparklingly black runic scales belonging to that of a Black Dragon Aspect.
Giving them the appearance of the blackest of Abyssal Flame Overlords greatly influenced greatly by The Black Dragon of Destruction surprising the young prince.
Causing Hanah having have already drunk the first bottle of bloodwine to then knowingly shake her head as if paying them no mind as if they were nothing more than pesky flames trying too hard to look like a generic offshoot of an aspect.
While in the presence of a true Dragon Aspect.
All the while Lily thought something much similar while Adel herself quickly frowned having noticed the unseen glares directed towards the young prince having surpassed The Legendary Realm due to the incredibly potent bloodline used to corrupt them.
Unfortunately, there was a reason why Ada had refused or even acknowledged having an ancestral bloodline, the reason being it was far too potent, if allowed it would destroy the balance of quite literally everything and doom everything through doing so.
The Ancestral Bloodline itself was so potent that many would simply be born into The Sacred Realm which in itself was quite terrifying let alone if they were allowed to mature, however that is if they were truly born with such a bloodline.
The issue was those Dragon Elementals weren't born of The Sacred Realm let alone The Legendary Realm which in itself meant they were both unworthy and weak to truly make any use of it.
It's comparable to that of a base human attempting to absorb the power of a Platinum God, they'd simply be erased from existence and if they weren't the suffering alone would make them wish they had.
The only reason why these three weren't currently dying was that the young prince had both deliberately lessened the dose and greatly reinforced the cores themselves so as not to simply turn to ash which would have just wasted both his time and the cores themselves.
Causing the young prince to then adorably look to all three before then noticing all three had chosen to be female which in truth was most likely be because of Ada herself however for the young prince he simply felt there was a massive gap between genders.
Why did elementals want to be female? Was it because there were more mommies and sisters than brothers and daddies?
Causing the young prince to then worriedly plan to brainstorm the topic even further later to see if he should fix the gap. Before then being so rudely being cut off by the apparent leader of the trio.
"Despite our reluctance, we will serve you.. we only hope you make 'proper' use of us"
She coldly confessed causing the young prince to then hesitantly nod.
"Starla, Pora, and Starling!"
The young prince adorably named surprising all three and causing Adel to then conjure up an obsidian elemental storage ring just for them alone in case they try bullying the other elementals.
Causing the young prince to then nod and two to then immediately enter it while their leader Starla remained before then conjuring up an obsidian throne and lazily sitting down as both defiance and simply watching on.
Causing the young prince to then adorably nod before then pulling out the two Lesser Blood Elemental Lord Cores both Garnet and Ginger gave him.
Causing Adel to then immediately return to his bloodline causing Alfy to then surprisingly do the same causing Keres to then playfully sigh.
Before then sitting with the others causing her after noticing the blood elemental cores in the young prince's hand to then playfully smile.
"Blood Elementals are quite rare! If not expressly forbidden maybe? Anyways try using Klarine's bloodwine on one and Kassadra's on the other! As long as you transfer enough mana it should work the same?"
Keres playfully suggested having thought it would be hilarious to see how it plays out! Surprising the young prince causing Hanah to then nod herself having wanted to see such an attempt as well.
Causing the young prince to then adorably nod before then attempting just that!
After preparing both the cores and the bloodwines themselves the young prince had soon placed everything in the air and began infusing his mana into both bloodwines before then transferring each to each core.
Causing him to then adorably wait, and wait.. until finally, he got to the point that he could simply continue both the transfer of mana and process without due supervision causing him to then adorably pout having now realized it'll take a while.
Causing the young prince to then adorably yawn before then waving his hand to open parts of the ceiling after remembering it was still night in his dreamworld causing him to then adorably gaze at the sky with an adorably amazed expression.
"So pretty.."
The young prince adorably mumbled before then curiously using plant magic around the edges of the ceiling to make it less ugly causing him to then sleepily nod before then ultimately yawning and closing his eyes.
After closing his eyes he had soon heard a strangely feminine voice in his head.
"Psst.. pssst.. PSSSST! Stop ignoring me! Did you really forget I existed?! How shameless of you! Anyways long story short I'm Lady Jade Goddess of The Jade Demons.. I was that thing that gave you that vivid nightmare, thinking of which sorry about that!"
"I needed to get your attention somehow since I allowed myself to be in such a predicament in the first place. But to sum it up I know you're a god and I've been here ever since just watching you! And you're really entertaining by the way!"
"It's not like I actually had a choice or anything! So don't blame me if I didn't warn you that Lady Lilith was a lustful hussy! I'm barely holding on as it is.. faking one's death by sacrificing one's godhood and attaching myself to that Lilith is enough to make anyone cry!"
Jade frustratingly cried which in turn both completely and so utterly blindsided the young prince to no end.
Having completely forgotten about that especially now when he was quite literally about to fall asleep before then immediately being blindsided once more.
