Meeting With The Headmaster Again

In the capital of the sky continent, Elysium, a young dragonkin messenger enters the throne room to kneel before the queen.

"Speak."

This is Irene Duskwright, the third Kaiser and current ruler.

"Lady Irene, your uncle Lord Ryujin Astera has summoned you."

"What for?"

"Forgive me your majesty but he did not say."

"Very well, you may leave."

Not once during their brief exchange did he raise his head to make eye contact. Although Ryujin is still alive, the young messenger knew not to show disrespect, for a Kaiser's successor is determined by ones strength rather than their bloodline. And as the only known user of temporal magic, no one would dare question her right to rule.

Anyone lucky enough to look upon the Draconic queen would be enchanted by her appearance.

Half of Irene's body is wrapped in a white body suit while jet black scales wrap the other half asymmetrically. She has long black hair that reaches down to her waist and is adorned by shimmering, blue jewels, a skinny arrow tipped tail, and a large, single bat-like wing. Only one of her crimson eyes has ever been seen due to the fact that she keeps the other sealed with a black cloth, and her unique appearance has earned her the nickname ' One Winged Princess of the Night'.

After the messenger left Irene fell deep into thought.

"Why would he of all people summon me? not once since his retirement has he ever taken an interest in me or the affairs of the world."

"What could he possibly want to talk about?"

No matter how much she thought about it, Irene could not come up with an answer. Thinking it pointless to ponder on the matter further, she wrapped her wing around her body and vanished from the throne room.

In an instant, Irene appeared at a remote location and was standing in front a door. This is Ryujin's residence and its location is only told to the acting Kaisers as well as a select few officials. After unwrapping her wing from her body, she knocked twice.

*knock* *knock*

"Its Irene."

"enter."

Upon entering she saw Ryujin waiting for her at a table. His short red hair, along with the horns on his forehead made it unmistakable that it was him. His clothes weren't too fancy and he wore white baggy pants as well as a red and gold, sleeveless open vest that showcased his muscles. He looked handsome and masculine, and despite being over a 1000 years old, he did not look much older than 30.

"Come, sit." he said gesturing at a seat opposite to him, to which Irene nodded before doing as she was told.

"What could the elusive Ryujin possibly want with someone like me?"

"Hahaha, come now Irene. Your reputation is well known even to someone like me, surely you jest?"

Irene simply stared back at him, sizing up his intentions. It was suspicious to her that he would contact her like this. She had never met or spoken to him a single time before today and it is known that he has been in seclusion for a long time now, taking no interest in outside affairs.

"I bet you are wondering why you're here?"

He took a moment before speaking and his face turned much more serious. A dangerous glint flashed in his eyes.

"A descendant has been found."

"A descendant? what are you talking about?"

"The details aren't important. All you need to do is watch them and if anything suspicious happens, I want you to eliminate them."

"Why?"

"Like I said the the details are not important. All you need to know is that they are a threat to everything we have built."

Irene couldn't help but wonder why there was a need for such secrecy, but theirs is a society based on strength. It was not her place to question him, even if she is currently the queen.

"Very well. What is this person's name?"

It was morning the next day and I was currently in the middle of my daily routine. Earlier I had woken up to a sweet smell that I didn't recognize, as well as had a bout of morning wood much fiercer than I have experienced before. It caused me quite a bit of confusion but lots of strange things have been happening when it comes to my desires, so I put it at the back of my mind.

Today is the last day before classes start, and after going with the Fleur, Luna, and Raya to meet with Vivienne, I plan on picking up anything I'll need and go around to register important destinations.

I was admiring my self in the mirror, as I do when something caught my attention.

"Pfft"

I turned around to see Luna and Fleur, with the latter standing there trying to hold in her laughter.

"What's so funny?"

"Pfft.. nothing"

". . ."

"BWAHAHAHA!"

Unable to hold it in anymore, Fleur starting rolling on the ground while holding her sides and laughing.

"Everyone has admired their reflection at one point or another, its completely normal!"

I squinted my eyes at her and shot her a deadly glare that made her stop. I looked up and saw Luna looking at me with a disgusted face, as if she were looking at a piece of garbage. She called me a pervert again and then left in the other direction. I noticed their was a faint blush on her face when she left though.

'Fleur is one thing, but I really have no clue what that one's deal is. . .' I said inwardly

"Alright enough messing around. Hurry up and get ready Fleur, we have a meeting with the headmaster today."

"Will you join me in the bath?" she said with upturned eyes

"No"

"Hmph you're no fun"

After wasting some more time, we were all finally ready and me and the girls headed off to meet with Vivienne. I had to deal with Fleur clinging to me on the way there, but its nothing I have not dealt with before. When we got there the assistant greeted us and said that Vivienne was already waiting inside.

"Ah you're finally here. How have things been between you four?"

"He's a pervert."

"Fun!"

"It has been interesting."

Luna, Fleur and Raya answered respectively.

"As you can see things have been exhausting."

"Well, I'm glad to see you four are getting along."

""Who says we are getting along?""

Me and Luna had answered at the same time. We looked at each other and the turned our heads away.

"Hmph"

"Tch"

"Hmmmm?" Vivienne looked at us with a teasing smile

"Well anyways, I want to introduce you to the one who is going to be mentoring you."

*knock* *Knock*

"That must be her. You can come in."

At that moment a Wolfkin woman walked in.

"Everyone I'd like you to meet Carin Starly. She's going to be a sword instructor this year at the academy as well as the one who will be mentoring you."

We all turned to look at her

"Ah, Its you!"

"Hello, brat. Did you miss me?" The wolf woman said with a smug grin.

Yes, it was Carin only their appearance was much different now. For one thing her name is slightly different and she's not a man.

"Oh, you two already know each other?"
