Master Of None

Chapter 862: 862. Etiquette

”So, for the most part, something crazy happened again.” Walker had finally processed the fact that he had gotten more than he bargained for when he used a royal dragon skill.

”Crazy is an understatement. I canʼt believe that you are now going to live for as long as a dragon. And you have that royal oath pledge whatever skill so you could do it again and again.” Remey was still fairly shocked since the unknown benefits of what Walker and Midnight did were just too good.

”Oh, he shouldnʼt have the skill any longer. Royal dragons will only ever use it once. It is an unwritten skill. They know they can use it when they meet a champion and so they do. Then it is forgotten forever. The system ensures that.

It is believed that the burden on the souls of those connected become too great if two champions ever served one royal.” Adair was extremely patient with the group while they understood what happened.

”Alright, but at the very least, we shouldnʼt worry about any royal dragons or even dragons, in general, attempting to take Midnight away from our family?” Gil had asked the question twice already and so had the others. It was what weighed on them most of all.

”If one attempts they will find themselves unable to use the oath. If they do and find out that they touched something connected to a royal without permission, they will most likely be sent to the court for a proper trial. If it still happens even with those possibilities, then the other dragons will go on a hunt to remove a dragon that does not represent our honorable ways.” Adair was sure of this.

It was one of the reasons why she had been so angry with Illia. There was just too much risk.

Midnight made a few slight growls showing that she was still worried about meeting other dragons. Especially a skeletal dragon since there was most likely one flying around out there that was her father. ”There are many dragons that go against the order. When they do they revert to monsters who can not speak, or grow properly. Some are exiled for their actions.

That is why most dragons are considered monsters until they are old enough. You will never be a monster though. A champion has never lost their mind even after great pressure.”

There was another sigh of relief. ”There is a lot of positive that I can see here. It means I will be able to spend more time with everyone in life. It is a good thing. We may not have expected it but when we welcomed Midnight in to the party, none of us could foresee what would happen from there.

Weʼve taken everything one day at a time and that is the best way to proceed.” Su finally spoke up again giving her usual down to earth mentality.

”Good. Now I can get you to learn about your duties as a champion, royal, and guardian.” Adair had been waiting and was about to dump more on them before she realized that since they were human most of this did not apply to them. ”Actually, the trials can only be done by a dragon. You may need to wait some years before you can attempt any of them.

As royalty, you donʼt need to do anything you do not wish and you certainly are not required to sit on the royal court since you do not have a single element. But you could sit as a natural mana user, it has been some time since we had a nature dragon show itself.”

”You Little champion, are the only one that should have anything to do. You will most likely have to participate in trials with the other young dragons and show off your prowess and potential. However, you must act like a dragon. No lowering your head unless you are attacking. No growling out of turn. If you make a mistake you are reflecting on your royal their own attitudes.

You could cause a village war. Not that you have a village to lose…”

The holes in what they could and could not do by not being dragons was too great. For Adair, this was a massive grey area that dragon history could not be prepared for. ”I believe...that at the end of the day, you will learn more when you are at the court. I will give you the dragon etiquette book we use for the hatchlings. I have many copies. Just remember, you are a royal now.

Even if you come face to face with an ancient dragon, if it is not a royal the same as you are, stomp on it. Make it know your presence. If it dares to even flinch in your face, mock it. You must show your strength of will over all else. There is pride in a dragonsʼ blood.”

Adair sifted through a carved stone shelf and brought two books over. ”The history of champions and their guardians for the little guardian. The high head of the dragon for the new royal. That is all I can do for now. I will pass around the new history to the others as I can. It may just bring some new dragonkin and power to my little branch village.” Adair was not a fool.

She knew that she would gain greatly from this encounter. Having another royal that favored water dragons was a boon. Especially when the ancient water dragon was nearing ascendance possibility.

”Once you leave this cave, you will be acting as a royal So read up now or I will not allow you to leave. Also, prepare for Illiaʼs apology. She owes it even more now that your status even exceeds mine. I am breaking many etiquette traditions speaking and teaching you in such a frivolous manner.

But I hope it can be forgiven, lord.” Adair gave a slight bow which made Walker very uncomfortable but he could not stop her even if he wanted.
