Leaving the battlefield

Two weeks passed by since Irene got back to normal and the situation of the war seemed to have got better. The dragons from the other side seemed to have lost the will since the loss of their leaders, The overly aggressive ones still had the will to fight but were not that much of a problem for the Dragonof's dragons and dragon Slayers. And if by chance a dragon with some troublesome ability tried to interfere, Damian was there to take care of them.

In the end, the battle was already destined to be won by Dragonof. Knowing that Damian and Irene were asked to stop entering the battlefield by the dragons and dragon slayers since they don't want them to do something that is not their job.

And though Irene was against that, Damian on the other hand accepted without much thought but still made sure to pretend that he was against it but still resolved himself to do so.

Because of all his help in the battlefield and taking care of the command during Irene's absence his image improved a lot in the minds of the dragons and dragon Slayers who met him for the first time on the battlefield. Even those who disapproved of him to be Irene's husband since he was from a kingdom smaller and weaker than theirs, now had respect for him. But still there were quite a few dragon slayers and knights who didn't think that he was good, since he was slightly bossy and arrogant.....though the main reason was that he married their idol Irene something that Damian made sure to keep in mind and deal with them if he found anything related to Irene in their possession.

There was reason why there were more casualties amongst the group the didn't like Damian because of that reason the others who hated Damian were just left by him to do whatever they want, it's not like he didn't have support so a small faction of haters was not that big of an issue for him.

--------------------

"You didn't forget anything right?" asked Damian as he looked around the tent.

"Hmm....I don't think anything is left." said Irene.

"Good, then let's go." said Damian as he stored the bed and all that belonged to him and then got out of the tent.

Once he came outside he saw a lot of people and dragons gathered around him. Irene soon came out as well and said, "We will be heading back to Dragonof now. I hope that you all will be fine and will return victorious."

"They will Irene, no need to worry about that." said Damian as he looked at the dragons and dragon Slayers and said, "You will right? Or do you want me to hel-"

"Don't worry lord Damian we will not let you down. We too need to show that we are proud and strong dragons/dragon slayers from Dragonof." replied the dragons and slayers.

Damian smiled and then took out quite a number of barrells from his storage and said, "Well here's my parting gift. Enough booze for everyone to not get wasted. When you all will return we will have you getting wasted there."

Hearing that both the dragons and the dragon slayers cheered in excitement making Irene looked at Damian with a slightly angry look since he gave them alcohol during the battle.

She just sighed that she cannot stop her husband and just went with the flow and said, "Remember to not drink at the same time, take turns since we cannot have you all getting drunk at the same time."

"Understood your majesty!!" said all of them in unison.

Damian also took out a dozen of barrells which were differently coloured from the alcohol one and said, "And take these too, this is something just in case someone gets a funny idea and tries to poison the booze, we never know if some troublesome enemy gets inside the camp."

Hearing that all of them turned serious as they remembered about the dragon that passed through the guards and entered the queen's tent without getting detected.

Damian smiled as he saw the dragons taking the barrells away and thought, 'Good, now with this no one would be able to blame me if they got poisoned or not.....never can be too cautious of enemies, traitors and Irene's fanboys.'

"Let's go Maka-jiji." said Damian as he saw Maka lowering this tail for them to climb on and get on his back.

Once Damian and Irene were seated Maka took off and headed towards Dragonof.

Once they were quite a distance away from Dragonof Damian said, "Maka-jiji, can you go from here on your own.....there is a place that I want to visit along with Irene."

"Hmm, sure....enjoy you two. I will tell the others that you two needed to do something." said Maka.

Damian smiled and nodded his head. He then jumped off his back along with Irene and stood on the platforms that they made.

"See you later Maka-jiji/san." said Damian and Irene as they flew away.

Maka waved his hand towards the two of them and went in the direction other than that of Dragonof. He had yet to celebrate and mourn for his brother death songs was going to meet some friends.

--------------------

"...So where are we heading?" asked Irene as she looked at Damian.

"... First we are going to the place where I used to live in when I was in Adroelia." said Damian making Irene slightly excited since she too wanted to know what type of place Damian lived in.

"...But aren't we heading slightly away from Adroelia?" asked Irene.

"Well I didn't exactly live in Adroelia since I need some space to make those weapons and potions when I was still not a mage there, so I lived away from there at its outskirts." said Damian.

"The king didn't offer you a place to stay?" asked Irene slightly surprised since from what she saw and know both him and Damian were quite close to eachother.

"They did, but the place they gave was not as advanced as mine.....and the princess would bother me by barging into my house, or hiding in my bath and be-" said Damian but immediately stopped as he turned his head and saw a 'beautiful' smile on Irene's face.

"...Well for those sort of reason I just lived in the house given to me by the king for about 3 weeks..." said Damian.

"... Nothing happened right?" asked Irene.

"Nope the only time I cheated on you were those five days during the battle." said Damian.

Irene blushed as she now had the memories of what and why she did the things when she was in her younger form and felt embarrased.

Seeing that he was able to divert her mind Damian me talky sighed and thought, '..You owe me one princess, I just saved you from doom.'

Damian chuckled as he increased his speed seeing which Irene increased hers as well.
