Chapter 1328: 1328. Royal Dragon In The streets

Finishing the introductions and meeting was easy since Mordant was more interested in seeing the rest of Genesis. Walker was seeing that his curiosity had caused him to leave behind his dragonkin and champion to walk the way here. The pieces that Mordant laid out through conversation showed clearly that it had been an order from him and not what they had desired.

Mordant was a royal, however, it seemed that he was a little childish when it came to his curiosity.

”If you would like, there are guest rooms right here in the Genesis building. They were made with some of the finest materials so we can properly welcome just about anyone.” One of the attendants had been called over by Markus Raven who had more or less been silent during the meeting.

He had wanted to keep a low profile since the royal dragon was not seemingly interested in wealth which was his primary position in Genesis.

”That will not be necessary. I will remain with my fellow royal dragon. It only makes sense that I would reside nearby if anything is needed?” Mordant acted as if this was an unspoken rule but Walker could tell there was a glint of curiosity there too. Mordant wanted to see how Walker lived and what he might be able to learn from such a place.

”We have plenty of rooms in the mansion. Thatʼs no big deal. But the guest rooms here are better so donʼt be unhappy with what we have.” The causal tone would have put any other royal on edge. Yet, just like Current, Mordant had begun to accept this readily. He even felt that he might be better off relaxing in a similar manner.

”Alma, Gil, Clara, come over for dinner later. We will cook a lot since everyone just got home.” Walker gave a shout to them as he left. Gil nodded slightly since he knew that the giant earth ants were on the menu.

”I was able to gather more of the details while we spoke, but can you expand on your small journey?” Mordant had already been updated because Walker had felt it fine to explain the relationship of the old ruins filled with ants to the mage tower. But when Walker had shouted to Gil and the others, it seemed that more was said about this dinner.

”The giant earth ants were mostly handled by the dwarves since they had the expertise. There was a dormant giant earth ant colony that woke up and split in to three colonies due to the hatching of two additional queen ants. From there, they should have been exterminated. Now the remaining forces are breaking the bodies down and transporting them.

The shells will be used for the crafterʼs guild primarily and the meat will be abundant. We should already have some at the mansion by now.” Walker explained this easily.

”Su, Midnight. No need to be stiff. Mordant is a guest in the mansion now. We are done with political pleasantries. If both of you are so stiff then he will get uncomfortable. You heard him say he doesnʼt need fancy escorts around the streets.” Walker did this more for Mordant than the others.

It was clear that in the means that Mordant left his escort behind he had desired to walk as Walker did through Genesis and not as the royal dragon that was feared and respected. The same thing after generations would become dull.

”You can see more clearly than I expected. My shadows often conceal what I want in life. I was in closed door meditation for some years before the last court gathering. I tend to forget the joys of flying through the skies. Now I can do just that while being the first dragon to experience what is new here.” Midnight reacted with a slight growl.

It ended up being strangely off since she was still in her dragonkin firm but Mordant understood it better than anyone. ”Fine then, the second dragon here. But maybe you can learn human speech soon so that you can say that instead of growling it.”

Of all people to tease her, Midnight had not expected it to come from a royal dragon. She stopped in her tracks before continuing along slightly closer to Su who was also partially stunned. ”She has been working very hard to grasp writing, reading, speech, and everything else. Almost as hard as she trains flying.” Su knew that for a dragon, training to fly was very important.

Giving this relation to Mordant brought some clarity to his eyes.

”Wait..that smell.” Mordant started to smell many enticing things. One of which was very tempting to any dragon.

”That would be the garden around our mansion. The herb fields are back where we came from so you shouldnʼt smell those. The mansion garden is taken care of by Gilʼs mother. She used to be a farmer but now that she doesnʼt need to worry about that, she is a full time gardener with full control over what she wants to grow. One of which, are dragon fruits. We planted a tree for them in the mansion garden.

Itʼs a good place to read a book in the afternoon.”

It took Mordant a few moments to understand that the large garden surrounding the larger building in front of him was the mansion Walker spoke about. It was off away from most of the main streets. Yet there were multiple buildings lined up in a row leading to it. ”Oh, and those shops we passed by are the shops of family members or close friends.

The wandering blacksmith, my sister, and mother have them there along with a few others.” Mordant was very impressed. It was very different from a dragon village but held its own charm and loftiness.
