Is it because of the Mother Goddess?
Is it because of his fierce battle with the Demigod compatriots?
Or is it like the ti of the Ideal Country...
Anyway, now, as ti has passed, the Red Dragon Court residing here is powerless to replicate the various agencies of the past. They’ve rely taken the nas handed down to them, but in reality, they now all fall in one place——
That place is beneath the Praying Tower.
"We’ve arrived, Fisher."
Fisher’s thoughts were pulled back by Rafael’s reminder. He looked up and saw that standing at the heart of the Red Dragon Court was a tall building entirely made of stone.
The architecture was simple, with visible traces of hasty construction, corresponding to the ti when the Dragon Courts were forced to retreat southward in confrontation. But even so, it can be seen that the stone tower and surrounding buildings, resembling a giant dragon, are vastly different from the Green Dragon Court and its likeness to Nali.
The surrounding area is guarded by walls, and fully ard soldiers stand outside the gate. But under the leadership of the Dragon Queen Rafael, Fisher and the curious Emhardt in his arms were smoothly led inside.
The scrutinizing gaze of the soldiers behind was keenly felt by Fisher. Clearly, they were curious about the figure hiding beneath the cloak beside the Dragon Queen...
If it weren’t for the height difference, they might think it was Priestess Moli.
With Rafael entering the Praying Tower, the spacious hall on the first floor had many working demi-humans. Fisher even saw clear divisions of areas on the wall,
Household Affairs Court, Arms Court, Magic Court, Praying Tower, King’s Court...
As Rafael continued forward, the office area reached the rear of the King’s Court, where the personnel around beca significantly fewer, allowing Rafael to finally lower the cloak over her head.
"This is fine, there’s no outsiders here; it’s also where I usually return to live in the Royal Court..."
"Lord Raphael! You’ve returned!"
"Lord Raphael!"
Fisher’s ears slightly twitched. Emhardt in his arms also flew out to perch on Fisher’s shoulder as if watching a play, but for so reason, upon seeing the two figures appearing in the distance, he withdrew his gaze disappointedly.
They saw that the visitors were two Dragon-man Species as tall as Rafael, both dressed in white short robes with short swords at their waists. Their tails, longer and thinner than Rafael’s, swayed slightly, revealing their excitent at seeing Rafael. Their faces were about ninety percent alike, respectively growing a long horn emitting milky white glow on the left and right foreheads.
At this mont, they each held a baby dragon-man species in their arms, one big and one small, but both under three years old, sparsely growing yellow dragon scales, looking clumsy and quite adorable. They stayed in the arms of the two Dragon-man Species, curiously watching Rafael and Fisher in the distance...
"Fasher, Kexier, ah, why are Mier’s children also here? Lier, Ror, quickly call Auntie."
"Ah Ba Ah Ba Ah Ba..."
Yes, the two Dragon-man Species before them were the close personal guards Fasher and Kexier who were captured together with Rafael at that ti. Five years passed, and both, already older than Lar, have gone through the coming of age ceremony, growing horns representing Dragon-man generosity.
"Lord Raphael, Lady Yaril ca by earlier, wanting to see Sister Mier’s baby..."
"Then Sister Mier brought them here, but since Har is already in school, she only brought Lier and Ror..."
"But after Lady Yaril left, Sister Mier seed to have an urgent matter to attend to, so she temporarily left Lier and Ror with us to look after..."
"Lord Raphael, you wouldn’t believe it, they’re really too noisy, I... oh, Fe... Fisher?!"
"Yeah, yeah, they’re really... Fisher?!!"
Just like before, even after coming of age, Fasher and Kexier spoke as if sharing the sa thoughts, alternating responses. Pairing that with their nearly identical appearance and deanor, it’s sotis really hard to distinguish between them...
But better than before, they now have horns, one on the left and one on the right, serving as a clear distinguishing mark.
When they saw Fisher smiling beside Rafael, the two Dragon-man sisters who were complaining simultaneously fell into a daze, and several seconds later, Kexier spoke,
"Could... could it be the Nali ghost is coming?"
"So soon? I... I didn’t hear anything..."
Rafael’s previously smiling expression instantly darkened. If it weren’t for the fact they were holding the babies, she might really have punched each of them like a dragon,
"Fisher is just here to see , he has nothing to do with the Nali matters. Do you still not trust him?"
With these words, their dazed expressions quickly dissipated, and they began to smile at Fisher, speaking in the Nali Language,
"Just kidding, it’s just... never thought after so long we’d see you again..."
"Welco back, Fisher Benavides."
Fisher nodded in return and said,
"It’s rare, not only did you learn the Nali Language, but you also rember my full na... long ti no see, Fasher, Kexier."
