I was super happy now to have my family back and also to have made my first dragon friend.

Dad asked me to keep our bond a secret. It was dangerous for the family and also for the dragon.

The nobility would have us in their sights and that's what Dad wanted to avoid.

That evening, dad explained in detail with mom how they found me and that I probably had dragon blood in me giving me incredible strength because my placenta had been bathed in the juice of a broken egg. I must have had some of the dragoness in me.

That's what happened and all the pieces of the puzzle fell into place. So the dragoness was also a little bit my mother... I loved her even more then.

At night, dark and moonless, I could hear a little moan in the distance. It was Voltrax who had made his rounds and was waiting for me at the cabin.

Quickly, I ran and jumped on her neck and waited for her to give me her wing. I never dared to ask her. I respected her as a very precious friend but also as a deity.

She once put an eggshell on my head...

"Yes. yes, I'm coming..."

I understood that she wanted to cover me... and I played the game.I had fun with it and she had every time a prey for me and we ate together. She loved it. One day she succeeded in putting scratched runes in the ground but I didn't understand the words.

She called me little dragon...nast death

.She must have been crying for her little one in the broken egg... poor creature. She was not a beast but she was intelligent but our species were very different.

She had another language even though we had the same runic symbols to write. Then, often, when I wasn't expecting it, she would pick me up by her teeth through the leather strap and put me on her back. Then we would go for a walk. Each time, she wanted to show me wonderful places that I didn't know existed.Each time, it was a discovery. And I took advantage of this to train.

She gave me a sword and wanted me to attack her, so I took a bamboo, out of respect. And she was happy about it.

She was making me a terrible warrior. Claw! Claw! Bite! Tail! Blow (snow). And I was always turned around... But she was careful not to hurt me.

Then it was the spear! She was galloping and I had to throw my spear and kill a boar. She would freeze it a bit to slow it down at first, then I got the hang of it. Then the next lesson was with the flying spear throw.

With the acquired speed, the moment and the kinetic energy were added and, in spite of the difficulty, the prey had no chance. But one day, we came across a dragon mounted by a knight.

Immediately it fled. The dragon no longer obeyed his master.

A year passed quickly and I was now 11 and a half years old.

The day after my "visit" I came home and I didn't look like a little kid anymore but like a kind of weightlifting muscleman. Even my father had never seen that. But I could smell the beast and the dragon.

And even his aura was shining through me.

Saphie, on the other hand, was sure I was going to find girls and, worse, that I had another friend or girlfriend I was going to see on the sly.

I could keep a secret but I was a bad liar. They were getting stronger every time but I was on another level.

"What if we went hunting for ogres?"

They turned pale when they heard me say this and... behind my back, I felt his presence. Without turning around...

"LEX... I felt you coming as soon as you stepped through the moon gate..."

Lex: "You, on the other hand, need a bath!"

Everyone laughed....But the smell made him frown.

"Torin... you smell like a big predator... Is that how you keep the monsters away?Turning around, my dagger went deep into the wooden beam behind me and had grazed Lex."

Nah... I kill monsters myself...."

Lex turned around not seeing a threat but rather a show of strength.He tried to pull the dagger out but it was too well embedded. With both hands he tried, but stopped to avoid embarrassing himself. I walked past him with my large stature and with one hand I pulled the blade out.

"That's how you kill an ogre!... Between the eyes! A dagger and a kick is enough. No need for a sword..."

I had to grow up again and he didn't dare imagine the adult me.

Lex: "Seriously, Torin..... you have potential.. Haven't you ever had a call, a voice in your head?"

But some overly talkative kids shouted Torin was taken by Voltrax!!!

I gritted my teeth and thought to myself... Shiiit! Finally this was bound to happen sooner or later.

Lex laughed as if it were possible. And he turned to the little girl who was playing on the road in front of the house with her friends. They must have been four years old too...

"And I'm the terrible THOR....and I'm going to eat you all ..OUAHAHAHAHA!"

the children cried and ran back home.I was crushed and so were my friends.

Lex: "I'm not interested in your secrets and they're none of your business. If you want to tell me how you escaped from the dragon, it's up to you to tell me or not. It won't influence my decision. We need talents like you at the Dragon House. We are independent of the king and we serve the country. As our dragons demand."

So I said goodbye to my parents and left with Lex for new adventures. My friends also left for Britannia and we all had classes together at the Britannia Magic and Military Academy.

There we honed our virtues and learned the basics of magic. Despite my Hulk-like stature, the nobles didn't hesitate to mark the tempo and taunt me with apricots.

So I showed them the golden mango, even rarer...At the academy I had to face Sylon and his gang.

"YesYesYes... Lord Chion..."

They laughed at him. His buddies laughed, but considering the mass of my muscles he had to think. He was afraid of Wilmet unconsciously if I broke his teeth...I knew that I was in his sights and that everything was good for us. I didn't care, I had other treasures dearer to my heart... that all the gold in the world could not buy.

Then, having passed my basic exams, we were given a test of magical power. We were in an audience with several mages, enchanters and illusionists and even a necromancer/alchemist. He was called the coroner because he worked with the investigators when a death was suspicious.

And then it was the level and skill test... The fear... what. In fact... everyone was afraid...And the fateful moment came when a huge crystal globe was brought in on a rolling cart and protected by a silk cloth.

The nobles were started and the globe was switched from one color to another and from different levels of intensity. A map with private statistics was given and even the examiners could not see it.

They were there mostly to answer students' questions and help them with their orientation. Often the students confused their abilities with their disillusionment. It was Sylon's turn and he had a fit when he saw that his globe was barely lit.

As if to irritate him, the head mage...

"Another level one... They can't study this generation!"

Then it was Beth's turn...the light turned green and bright "Ah, a promising druidess! But you can also become an illusionist and summoner. Your color is compatible!"

She thanked the masters and Father Damien was with us in the room as an observer but also to support or defend us.

"Henri... you can come closer..."

The aura of the stone was soft and comfortable.

"An animal lover and a locksmith!...these are great prospects.."

It seemed as if it was his hat that was talking, so much so that he was moving his head as he spoke.

A real Chooser...Cedric . You already know...And he put his hand on the globe which glowed very brightly.

"A powerful mage...

You have experience already? you can see your level on your magic card..."

They were curious but Cedric didn't say anything... He had a higher level than some old teachers.

Level 23 at 12 years old out of a total of 99 corresponding to the level of archmages like Minax and Mondain...

Saphie put her hand in and she knew she would be a ranger or a warrior. She also had a high level for her age

Without knowing it, we were already elite for our age. Manu was beyond comprehension and Father Damien could already see the bells of the Lord in him.

A future bishop... a super cleric. But he was already a cleric at 12 years old...Then it was my turn...I put my hand down and the orb started to flash from dark black to bright like a sun.

My level was 99!

Warlord/DragonLord.

"Oh... a high level warrior!" they exclaimed.

Maybe we have a future hero," he joked.But the high cleric stood up and took my hand...And he half collapsed."

"You have Thor's blessing... but the curse of the three Lords of corruption. You are bewitched, Torin and I think it's because they fear you...They have sealed your fate.

Now it's up to you to make your way and put your destiny back on track. You will come to me after school...I will be waiting for you."

This was a bombshell in the assembly and the nobles saw me as a disrupter and a troublemaker. In short, a threat to the established order.
