The three people around me—Kim Min-Jae, Park Ji-Hoon, and Lee Seo-Yeon—looked in awe at the dragons, their faces lit up with amazement. It was honestly quite funny and even a little cute to watch.
"Mount up, choose any dragon," I said, flapping my wings and rising effortlessly into the air. "I'll fly myself."
Their eyes lit up as if they were witnessing the coolest thing in existence, making me blush slightly. It felt good to see their admiration—it even made me feel a little proud of my abilities.
"Empress, shouldn't you fly on a dragon as well?" Lee Seo-Yeon asked cautiously, her gaze flickering between me and the massive beasts.
I shook my head with a small smile. "Don't worry about me. I want to stretch my wings a bit. They're quite useful, you know."
Before they could respond, I flapped my wings powerfully and disappeared into the sky, leaving them flabbergasted. I chuckled to myself as I watched their stunned expressions from above.
