Oooooooh, you were so good! You were soooooo goooooood, my sweet whelping! How you used your flames and scale-dust to create those lights! How you smiled! Grrrrrraaaaaaarrrrrrrrh! You were so cute!

This is my life now

I was unable to move. No matter how much I tried, it was impossible to free myself from the tight embrace of an indomitable beast. Her loud roars even forced me to use [Air Shield] to protect my ears. I knew she was delighted, but my poor ears, man. Think about them, Mother.

Yes, the indomitable beast was once again just Mother. She was rubbing her face against my head while her tail was caressing mine. This was a show of affection amongst scalekins lizardmen, dragonewts, and any other race with a tail and is covered in scales similar to kissing for humans. Wholesome when its amongst family, lewd when you do it with some stranger.

Oh, but you should be careful, Hestia. Swinging and dancing with your tail is part of a mating ritual to attract others, before you begin testing each others combat abilities. You might make some younglings go into heat.

Mother, seriously, stop!

As promised, Mother actually attend the concert the moment she woke up. Although I didnt expect her to be that excited, the moment she saw me in my first performance outfit, she couldnt stop wagging her tail like crazy.

She was gasping, and while she didnt say anything, I still felt my confidence rise more and more. Having a parent feel proud of me really tickled this weird but amazing feeling inside my chest and stomach. I just wanted to release this happiness from my body like an explosion.

And when I finished my first song, Mother nearly crushed me when I went backstage to meet her. To stay inconspicuous, she controlled her silver dust so perfectly that she reflected all the light coming to her. She was practically invisible as she floated in the air above the crowd. Even Yorshka couldnt do this.

But that meant she didnt attract attention and could still receive the authentic concert experience. With all the fanfare, the booming music drowned out even the loudest of cries and roars, and the vibrant energy filling your body. Mother told me all of this while also praising my performance.

I cant stop thinking of how you smiled, Hestia! she told me. Even after sleeping it off, she still couldnt stop thinking of the expressions I made. Like the dazzling stars in the midnight sky; Mother thought of what she saw at the concert as her treasure.

And now she wasnt willing to let me go.

Lady Hestia, Miss Saori told me to inform you that we are now leaving the city. Tasianna came into my room to inform me. Yes, the moment Mother woke up, she stormed into my room and began hugging me. Talk about not knowing personal space, huh?

Thank you, I thanked her, just accepting the fact that Mother wouldnt release me until she was satisfied. How did Amelias talk with Duke Equevanna go?

A moderate success. As in, she entrusted the [Room] rune set to him and he agreed to preserve their secrecy and to only use them in emergencies or if we call him. He has taken an oath in your name as a Kargryxmor, willingly.

One good thing about me accepting my lineage and status as princess of Kargryx is that I could use my influence to have people acquiesce to my demands. In this case, Fillion didnt have the luxury to decline my offer. Possessing my [Room] runes meant I trusted him enough to keep them safe.

Taking an oath in Kargryxmors name also meant that, if he were to break our agreement, he would incur the wrath of Hestia Atsuko Kargryxmor, Princess of Kargryx. Similar to the Shaturein case, it meant becoming hostile to dragonewts and Kargryxian dragons. I couldn't help but think that its a good thing, right? Thanks to Mother, I knew about this now~

Like I told the merchant, I really didnt like flaunting my status around, thinking its irresponsible, but I also now know not using it when needed is irresponsible as well. Im a dragon with a human soul. My other soul half made me understand this wasnt a bad thing. Saori and Yorshka explained to me this wasnt a bad thing. Mother assured me this wasnt a bad thing.

I planed to make Artorias into a great ally for me. We needed a bastion to fight against the demonkins and to help me fulfill Aurenas Divine Quest. Even if the world wasnt in danger with the Origin Gods around, those demonkins wont stop ruining my happiness. This was more than enough reason for me to continue working.

And to do that, I needed my dragon heritage to help me out.

So, Amelia wasnt able to negotiate Duke Equevanna into allowing access to his trade routes around his fief? I asked Tasianna.

Sadly, no. The negotiation was cut short thanks to our departure. According to Lady Amelia, Duke Equevanna wished to go into a partnership with the Sarlenzia company. Lady Amelia thought it was a good deal, since it meant she would have more leeway when dealing with the local merchant guild, but this wasn't something she could agree to without her father's permission.

So they have to renegotiate, right? Another date? Amelia wants my permission to invite her father and Fillion into the RV to discuss, correct? Tasianna nodded. Haaaa, alright. Ill make a meeting room for everybody to use. We wont have to use the dining room to discuss stuff anymore.

Thank you! I will deliver your words to her. Also, Miss Saori anticipated this, so she asked Duke Equevanna to commission a beautiful table for the room, including its furniture. A gift to a pleasant partnership.Ñøv€l--ß1n hosted the premiere release of this chapter.

Saori, Saori. She knows whats best. Always a step ahead of the rest.

Money saved and the room will be filled up without our worry. Free stuff is good.

But, going back to what Tasianna said before, today we were also leaving Ullistar. The moment the festival ended for the day, we quickly packed all the stuff back into my storage. The cleaning would be left to Fillion. After all, our goal wasnt actually in Ullistar, but rather the Republic of Estralia.

We were leaving the city today in order to get to Estralias capital, Gleisvale, as early as possible. The earlier, the better, since we needed Shaturein to start controlling the underground market over there. All this was just setting things up to reach our primary goal, finding clues on the contractor who sent fae hunters to Saelariel and killed the Princess Schuri, all for Tasiannas sake. In addition, there might also be hints of demonkin dealings over there for us to find.

After we left the city, we made our way east, going along the official route between Ullistar and Estralia. Along the way, we would go through a small town built around Equevannas only dungeon, which bordered Estralia. There was supposedly a faster path through the mountains, but that one was infested with monsters, bad paths, and the risk of bandits.

Not like any bandit could do anything to us, but I wasnt in the mood to delay our trip for them. In any case, getting to Gleisvale would take around a week for a normal caravan. We could probably shave a day off with our speed, but none of us were used to the path outside of Yorshka. Her estimate was six days, but who knows.

In other words, its going to be a long trip. Since we didnt have computers or television around, the only way to spend this time was either cards, board games or training. Well, pretty much the exact thing I did on the trip to Ullistar. With the garms moving the RV and only needing one person to man the coach, everybody else could stay inside and train, work on projects, or slack.

I was in the training group, and, well, I guess pretty much everybody else was too. Well, everybody but Asaka, really. Im not really sure what she was doing now, but she was a wildcard when it came to contributing and training.

Before the advent of the Origin Gods, there were only three types of beings who could use magic without aid. Among them were the creatures born with the body of the energy of the world faefolk, with their body of mana. The second are the creatures with the ability to mutate their bodies further and further using mana, an occurrence we now call evolution the monsters. And the last are the ones who once used to rule this world as our gods before their rule and elemental authority was usurped by the Origin Gods the primarchs, the elemental kings.

Our companys magic tutor was none other than Mother.

I will not bore you with the history of the primarchs, but essentially, they controlled the six elements of the world, keeping everything in balance. History has almost forgotten them completely, outside of the long-living races like us dragons or the elves. The earth primarch, the one who created the dwarves in imitation of the humans and elves, is probably the most known of them. But the others? They are probably either dead or in hiding. I cannot tell you much about them.

Is that the reason why the dwarves cannot expel mana from their bodies? Nishio asked.

The dwarves were made from gems and earth, meaning their bodies are essentially different from ours. While dwarves can breed with the other races, all half-dwarves are unable to cast magic because of their dwarven half. Even with Crustacias aid, this bodily law cannot be overwritten even with the Divine System. The Curse of Earth, the dwarves used to call it in the past.

I wasnt alone with Mother, though. Tasianna, Ellaine, and Nishio were all attending these lessons with me. Those of us who wanted to continue improving their magical abilities. Those more focused on their physical training like Tatsuya, Kyouya, Misaki, Kohaku, and Elrick were working with Yorshka. Only Saori and Kazumi were training under Muraina, as they were our rogues.

The rest of our company was on support or artisan duty. Grimnir and Daichi were working in the forge, Tamae was keeping our food storage in check and managing the restaurant, and Haruka was doing our ledger with Amelia. Josine, who decided to commit to following Ellaine, and Svena, who was practically my maid at this point, were keeping the whole place clean and in check.

Our animal companions werent slacking off either. The garms either were driving the RV forward or training with Saori. Shoyi, Saoris slime, was keeping our toilets and trash clean. And the virigresses, who were all done with their assimilation into Saoris [Shadow Pack], were being trained by the garms to work with them. They were all a pack now.

If any of us werent inside the RV, we most likely were doing something outside. I teleported the members of The Magical Biscuits back to Griffonpeak, but they could still use the subspace to train anytime. Even the fact we could call in a meeting between Duke Greenveil and Fillion makes me once again appreciate that I figured out the [Room] nexus trick. Its like a VR chat, kinda.

Ignoring the primarchs, let us focus on the faefolk and monsters, particularly us dragons. Mother then called up Tasianna and me to her. The reason why these two races are able to cast magic without the aid of the Divine System is due to the mana inside us molding into one of the six elements. Humans and elves were required to create a contract with a faefolk, becoming faemancers, to cast magic. The faefolk acts as your catalyst, molding your mana into fire, water, and so on, allowing you to create water or fire. As such, the moment a faefolk is born, they all have an innate potential for one of the six elements, or, on rare occasions, a compound element.

Tasianna's eyes widened suddenly. Oh! Is this why I was able to buy [Ice Magic] from the skill shop without having gained either [Torrent Magic] or [Storm Magic]?

Bio: Hey there, AbyssRaven here. I'm just an avid Light Novel and Fantasy story reader who randomly thought of a story and began writing about it.

I eventually found out that I've been spending a bit too much time with building, planning, and researching for the story, that I've decided to just share it with others.

Writing is mostly a hobby for me, but I would still love any kind of criticism to improve on it.

I'm also german, so please excuse anything that sounds a bit weird...I wouldn't mind you pointing it out though.
