Emotion?

Twilight was beginning to cover the city, whose only source of light came from the white light of the sky and the orange light from the roadside streetlamps that lit the ground.

The sound of heated engines warming the cold air, the noise of stores which mostly close at night, and people returning home for a good night's sleep with their family.

Two people walked side by side, crossing the streets relatively calmly. Before arriving in front of a house.

"Finally" Kiyotaka stepped forward with little Shiro in his arms, the baby dragon was just sleeping.

From what Tiamat told him, in childhood dragons began to accumulate a lot of energy, and all this energy drained them mentally.

Tiamat looked at the house. Average was the exact word to define it. The facade had a normal entrance with a wooden door, a small letterbox at the entrance, and the windows giving a direct view of the street.

"Is this the house you were talking about? Average ..." Tiamat frowned, following Kiyotaka who didn't answer her.

Stepping out the door, the female dragon opened her mouth wide at what she saw, her eyes almost widening out of their sockets.

At the entrance, she was greeted by a crystal chandelier suspended above, illuminating the entrance with a yellow light. A sweet scent of flowers wafted through all the rooms and the clean wood floors and beautiful gray-white walls.

Kiyotaka set little Shiro down on one of the two sofas in the living room, turning on the television in the process with the remote.

"So mean?" Kiyotaka smiled as he looked at the girl who was lying on the other unoccupied couch.

"Did the redhead do this to you? MPHF, I can do better I'm sure!" Tiamat puffed out her chest in a sudden air of superiority.

"Yes, and your cave is a great example of that" Kiyotaka shook his head, smiling.

"Are you kidding me? I'm still your teacher" Tiamat stood up abruptly, she was going to teach the boy good manners.

"As soon as the student beats the teacher, I think the circle is over." Kiyotaka quickly left the room, leaving her in silence.

Kiyotaka went up the stairs to a large hallway.

"KIYOTAKA BASTARD!" The sound of an angry woman echoed from below in Kiyotaka's ears.

He just shrugged before laughing. "Why does she take so long to figure things out?"

In front of him, a ladder was set up to go up to the attic by a trapdoor located just above.

Taking the ladder, Kiyotaka placed it right in front of the hatch before climbing it one by one.

As he opened the hatch by pushing it down, a little dust crept into the hallway on the second floor.

The dust did not bother the boy much, as he passed through, arriving in the attic. He closed the hatch and put it back on the floor.

* CLAC *

The trap door connected to the ground made the only noise of the silent house.

Spider webs were present in every corner. A few small wooden boxes full of dust here and there lit by the white light coming from the single pane in the middle of the roof. Only the wooden walls seemed maintained.

"They thought I wouldn't need it." Kiyotaka raised his hand from which a magic circle appeared. Soon an orange dome shone on the surface of his body to also rest on the walls and the parquet.

Another circle, but this time red, appeared in the middle of the room.

Heat escaped from the relatively small circle, but gradually the circle grew larger to the size of the entire attic.

A torrent of flames from the circle of magic hitting the entire interior of the attic with great power. Everything inside has disintegrated except the walls, the floor, and Kiyotaka himself.

The last circle landed behind Kiyotaka who did not move an inch. A gust of wind blew throughout the interior of the attic, extinguishing the flames in a massive blast of air.

"Things start here." with a smile on his face, Kiyotaka extinguished the remaining small flames in the room with a little water and wind magic.

Removing the orange protective domes from the walls and floor, the boy entered the middle of the room, still smiling.

He closed his eyes, a magic circle appearing right next to him.

The circle emitted a strong green light before a thing came out.

A table out of the green light accompanied by a simple but comfortable chair. There was a lamp on the table that now looked like a small desk.

Kiyotaka wiped the sweat from his forehead with the sleeve of his black jacket. Demon magic was practiced in a certain way because with it you could do anything with your imagination.

But the cost mentally and in magic was staggering and this, just for a table and a chair ...

"I'll be done tomorrow" Walking towards the trap door, Kiyotaka opened it and then descended the ladder, closing it silently behind him.

* CLAC *

The click sounds announcing the closing of the small door.

Going down the stairs, Kiyotaka arrived in the living room with small steps.

His "sensei" was lying on the couch with little Shiro in her arms, the television on. The two were sleeping peacefully.

Kiyotaka felt something in his heart, he hadn't thought about what he and Tiamat seem like family. He met her recently but she was following him where he was going now with Shiro.

Kiyotaka turned off the television and before turning off the living room light he looked gently at Tiamat and Shiro then turned silently turning off the light, preparing to go up to his bedroom.

But he felt water run down his cheek reaching up to his chin.

Raising his hand to his eyes, he gently runs his index finger over his cheek to put it in front of his eyes.

"I-I? Kiyotaka shook, the words not wanting to come out of his mouth.

"Kiyotaka, Kiyotaka ... Sensei will ... hit you ... if you keep going ..." Tiamat's voice snapped him out of his amazement.

Turning around he used a magic circle to enlighten him. He saw her sleeping with a furrowed brow.

Kiyotaka put out the small fire, wiping the water off his cheek with his sleeve, he smiled slightly and walked up the stairs to his bedroom.
