CHAPTER 30: THE NEW COUNCILORS

These dates, have been expected by RYU, among the dragons, have also done a ritual of celebration, these are competitions.

Thus showing the new power of the new kingdom.

In this celebration, all the dragons who wish participate.

There is much movement and to honor the new king and the council that has new members.

As leader of the qilin NABIH was appointed, a squadron leader qilin who demonstrated his worth and intelligence on many expeditions.

Also the leader of the unicorns, PALADIA, a female who was PYUA's right-hand man, was appointed, sharing her interests with those of the former councillor.

They're the guests of honor.

All preparations are taking place.

RYU's brothers will participate, ask RYU to participate, he is not fully convinced.

Before he splits up from his brother.

DRAKE warns him not to get in trouble and stay away from human villages.

RYU, already discovered, tells him that can only be banned by his father.

DRAKE gets upset and threatens to hit him, his brothers interfere, taking DRAKE, telling him to keep that passion for the competitions.

RYU, you know that if you participated, it would be easier for you to notice her absence and her idea is to go to the human villages she reaches tonight, looking for PANDORA, no more than hide her, today is a day when they won't.

And, in fact, she's right, only, PANDORA hasn't decided yet whether to go for a walk or not, she's not very sociable and seeing so many people back and forth makes her feel dizzy.

However, he's preparing a dinner party, whether he's coming out or not, doesn't mean he doesn't eat something special.

He cheers up a little and rushes out to pick some vegetables in the orchard.

DRAKO comes to talk to RYU, is accompanied by TYPHOON, RYU hugs his sister who, kisses him and runs out to play with the few small dragons left of that catastrophe.

His father told him that, in these two years, few eggs have been laid and of these, there have been very few births of dragons.

Still, the picture looks promising.

While dragons, qilines, phoenixes, kitsune, unicorns and faucets are united, there is an opportunity to re-emerge as a unit.

RYU notes that it has not appointed humans, in fact, the opportunity for a human to be on the council was revoked.

Now they're just a protected species.

But he doesn't say anything about it.

His father realized that, too.

So it clarifies that, his hatred for humans was sown by only one of them, only one human who, was the cause of the fall of an entire kingdom and the loss of his beloved family.

It may sound strange, too, that he has been dwindled because of one.

RYU looks at him strangely.

The human identity baffles him, he has never met anyone who could diminish the anger, helplessness and hatred so deep in his father.

He certainly doesn't know that human.

But it's a relief that I entrusted this to you.

His hope grows when he sees his father's mettle, like the one his father once used to have.

DRAKO proposes that RYU participate in the competitions.

It would help you to know what level you are at.

RYU, though, has undergone several workouts that are already mandatory for them, it's not war, so you give up the invitation.

The father, seriously, asks him what he's going to occupy his day then?

RYU tells him that there are things in his work that he has been behind, today, that there are no labors, it would help him to catch up, and he does not really lie, if he has many things behind because of his escapes.

His leader proposed that, as long as he does not fail, he will not discover it with his superiors.

RYU asks permission to leave.

He feels his son didn't lie to him, though what he's hiding, if he knows.

He must be late for looking for the human girl.

He doesn't like the idea of him leaving, but, little can he do, if he doesn't go today, he'll be there tomorrow.

DRAKO really doesn't feel like imposing anything anymore.

RYU is old enough to decide.

Although, he is concerned that this is not accepted by the dragons of the kingdom.

It's a conflict that comes for sure.

It's not yet dark, RYU has been working all morning on its hunting efforts, has gathered the 13 dams it lacked to complete its quota.

He's very tired. he walks away as far as he can to one of the human villages, he has been crossing out a drawing in which he has been writing down the ones he has visited in the last few weeks.

So he's headed for one of the new ones.

Notice that nearby there is a small lagoon.

They are his dragon body could not swim or bathe at ease.

So it takes on a human appearance at once as soon as it touches the shore of the lagoon.

He feels tired, he lays on the grass watching the dawn form.

Then you realize that you must already mix.

RYU strips naked, to put someone in for a bath.

In this time, her hair has been growing more in her human form.

He goes into the water.

PANDORA bathes in her house and pulls out of a small trunk a nice dress, she has not decided whether to participate in the festival or not, this dress was a gift from SHURUI, who warned her that she will not be able to go as there is a festival in her home.

PANDORA dresses up and finishes making his dinner, only that, he's not hungry now, he serves himself a little and throws it in a basket, he packs it into deep plates.

He's brought slices of bread, milk, fresh water.

Fruits and some sweets to accompany dinner.

An antique and a drawing by RYU.

She tells herself to have dinner with RYU.
