Hey guys, I'm here to say that if everything works out, there will be another chapter tomorrow night. I won't promise it because I'll only be able to release another chapter if things outside of my control work out the right way

The villagers arrived after a few minutes and the meeting did not go well. First they asked what happened to the forest and to Faroh's house, then they asked where was him.

"Ohhh, you know. He was just a pile of mordis's shit after a week in the sand. So I went and killed him and turned his remnants to ashes. Hihihi you can thank me later" Amity told them.

After a confirmation from Jane, they collectively lost it and began screaming and cursing, telling us to leave their village and to bring Jana as well as she was clearly a traitor. Some even dropped to their knees and cried, it was awful.

Jana, Zenshin and myself could sense Amity's patience running low, even though we hadn't sensed anything directly, just her smiley expression hardening and her eyes becoming almost like those of a dead fish revealed that each moment we stayed there, the probability of their survival dropped by a significant margin.

Eventually Amity turned to Jana and asked if she had anything to pack, for which Jana thought for a moment before shaking her head.

Amity nodded and raised her hand, after that everything was just a blur for several seconds as my body felt weightless and something was burrowing inside of it, just like time energy was being absorbed by my body in that timeless zone.

Suddenly my face was against the dirt, the sounds of small animals and some creatures roar at the distance, together with the sunlight coming from somewhere I couldn't pinpoint because of my field of vision being occupied by 70% with grass and dirt, told me we weren't in the same forest near that village that we were seconds ago.

"Oh wow, you are a hungry little dragon, aren't you?" Amity's voice came from behind me as I got up. "You ate a good chunk of the energy I used to teleport us away from that goblin farm. No offense, sweetie"

"None taken" Jana answered. "Where are we?"

"Weeeeeeeel, I was planning to take us to my cloud house. But this little devourer ate through the spacial mana like it was some sort of cake… great! Now I want some cake" Amity said.

Amity, focus, please. Zenshin spoke.

"Right, yes. Anyway, I am still weak after breaking the seal and couldn't supply more magicules, because I don't have any to spare. So I adjusted the destination mid-flight and landed somewhere near a couple of friends I know" She explained.

Jana looked at me and I looked at jana. Both our faces filled with confusion, but mine was bigger, as Jana looked like understood that explanation somewhat. After a few moments Jana looked at Amity and spoke.

"Did you just say… cloud house?" She said, unsure if she heard that right.

Amity refused to elaborate further and instead began to walk us towards a cave entrance we just spotted after walking for a few minutes. The cave entrance was small enough for it to not catch any special attention and big enough to build a house inside of it.

Amity didn't stop at all, arriving at the entrance and walking in as if she built the place, Jana and I closely behind and Zenshin on top of Amity's shoulder, I took the opportunity to look around. The stone that made the walls, ground and even the ceiling was surprisingly smooth, but it had melting marks all around, almost as if someone melted the rock and quickly frozen it in place.

After descending a low inclined ramp for a while, we arrived in a big circular room that was shining like the sun in my vision due to [Magicule Detection] and the high concentration of magicules in the area. It had three other openings that looked like hallways.

Suddenly we heard a deep voice echoing from one of the hallways.

"Who dares to wake me from my slum- COF COF Amity!?" The voice said, turning way less deep after the coughing.

A red wingless dragon the size of a house appeared from the hallway, walking towards us. A few seconds after I saw him, the room suddenly lit up with what appeared to be some crystal embedded on the wall, revealing the wingless dragon to Jana, who couldn't see a thing in the darkness that was this cave and only managed to walk with us because my body illuminates enough for her to see a couple meters from me, she immediately got behind me and Amity after seeing the giant creature with teeth as big as myself. I must admit that I also felt intimidated by the sheer size of him, making my body turn a little more blue as my heart pumped the plasma in my body more rapidly as well as hotter.

"Amity? Is that you?" A feminine voice came from the other hallway, and from this one appeared a blueish white wingless dragon just as big as the red one.

Both of them got into the room from the hallways and the room suddenly felt rather too small for everyone. Amity smiled as she looked at them and they looked at her with surprise in their eyes.

“Staash, Kora, how are my favorite twins doing? You’ve grown so big since I last saw you two. When was it? Two hundred years ago? Amity said as she hugged the front leg of the red dragon.

"One hundred and fifty, but who cares about it, right Kora?" The red one, who I assume is Staash spoke to Kora, the other dragon.

"We're just happy to see you again" Kora said as she lowered her head and pressed it against Amity. Her head was bigger than Amity herself.

"Hey, who are your new friends?" Staash looked at us and our gaze met. There was no malice in its gaze, but his sheer size and pressure he released made me gulp, Jana was uncomfortably standing right behind me.

"Oh, right, let me introduce them" Amity said as she slipped from between Kora's head and Staash's leg like she was made out of wet soap. "This one is Jana, I picked her up from a village full of trash"

"By 'picked her up' you meant you kidnapped her?" Staash asked.

"What?! No! Why would you think I kidnapped her?" Amity shouted indignantly.

"It wouldn't be the first time" Kora said.

"Nor the tenth time" Staash continued.

They are right, Amity, you are kind of prone to kidnap anyone you find interesting. You are even looking at your kidnapping number eleven and twelve right in front of you, in fact. Zenshin's voice echoed in my mind.

Amity's face was shocked. 

"Y-you dare to gang up on me to accuse me of committing crimes?" She said incredulously.

I'm certain fifteen kingdoms and two empires would agree with us. Zenshin spoke

"..." Amity lifted her finger and opened her mouth to say something, but stopped. "... Yeah, you're right. Tho, it's not my fault they consider a little party a crime"

Both dragons smiled with a comforting face.

"Amity…" Staash said, but Kora continued. "They don't consider partying a crime" She said.

"Then why did they come for me!?" She shouted indignantly.

Because in your little parties, you've destroyed 15 government buildings, stole a shipment of enchanted gold-infused silver coins because "they are shiny", injured a whole squad of knights because they tried to arrest a thief just because it was a small child, who I must remind you tried to take you for hostage and then tried to kill you to escape the knights, oh, and let's not forget about the time you kidnapped the princess of a kingdom…thrice. Zenshin spoke.

Amity's shocked face was constantly shifting a little as Zenshin described a few of her past crimes. As soon as Zenshin finished Amity deflated like a balloon and sat on the floor looking down. I was about to say something when Amity suddenly jumped on her feet and pointed her finger at Zenshin.

"Those coins really were shiny!" Amity said.

I could help but chuckle at the scene that just happened in front of me, but as soon as I finished my chuckle I felt two gazes at me. I turned my head and both dragons were eying me head to tail.

"And who are you, little one?" Kora asked me as she put her head close to me and Jana, who almost fainted over the huge head with teeth the size of her forearm coming closer to us.

"I-I'm Denaru… Denaru Theris" I said, still a little intimidated by their size.

"Oh, yeah, let me introduce you. His name is Denaru Theris. I've named him myself. Staash, don't even think about it" Amity said.

"W-what? H-how could you know what I was thinking?" Staash rapidly said.

"I read minds" Amity said with a smile on her face.

No, that's my job. I'm the one who reads minds here. Zenshin also entered the conversation.

“Fine” Amity said as she threw her hands in the air. “I just know what you’re thinking when you make that face of yours”

“W-what face?” Staash questioned, embarrassed.

“Brother, you know what she is talking about” Kora said.

“Now, now. I won’t brag, but I’ll tell you how I took care of a white dragon until he evolved into a…” Amity said but was interrupted.

“Wyvern?” Kora said.

“That would be the only logical progression” Staash said.

Amity’s face of disbelief was priceless and I couldn’t contain a giggle.
