ch 12

Taylor decided he was going to deploy diplomacy first but if it came down to it he would get his first real fighting experience after all the only way he has been able to get fighting experience has been with a clone he created as a sparring partner.

And for his type of diplomacy he gives the first move to the opposition so that he can get a feel for their initial attitude towards him.

Then he suddenly remembered that Albion should not be this big and then he scanned the dragon using scan a magical spell he created with his imagination magic.

The scan can send all the biological and magical information of what was scanned.

And low and behold the dragon he was seeing was actually a illusion that was made to cover the real dragon that was actually many times smaller, this made him guess that this is a passive protection that can either only used when a dragon is first born or used in case It senses the presence of a potential predator.

" Firefly you knew that its size was an illusion didn't you." Taylor questioned Firefly.

[ Of course I did master after all I don't have your body's biological activity potentially affecting my immediate objective thought functions.]

Taylor took a moment before laughing at himself realising that his fear receptors are still able to affect him which he considered to be both good and bad.

…

It's rewind time [ Dragon POV.]

I had become Spiritually aware of my existence a while ago but I had no other senses, so aside from being aware of my own existence there for all I could do was wait for my body to fully form but my spiritual body would be filled with knowledge and information so that I would at least know of things.

Although time would pass, I have no sense of time so I have no idea how much time went past.

Eventually my body was fully formed and I began to acquaint myself with my new senses and I finally gained a sense of time or a internal clock as it could be called.

Once I got accumulated to my senses. I realise that I was in a minor dimension, which can only be created under a few choice conditions The birth of my species the dragon is one of those conditions.

Fortunately, this minor dimension I was born and had enough room for me to learn how to use my body.

I would fly around to adapt to how my wings worked, then I would experiment to learn how to use magical energy eventually, I became adapt enough that I created a small bit of flatland so that I could learn to walk and after quite a while I could not only walk but also run.

I then began to practice my draconic abilities my ability to breathe the different elements, fire was probably the easiest as all I needed to do was heat up my uvula and then when I breathe out it will spark and them pure flame comes out,

The Second easiest was wind as instead of just breathing out I needed to infuse magic power within my breath in order to make it a powerful wind breath and not just a regularly breathing out which was surprisingly harder than one would expect.

The second hardest was water breath as that required Me to not only create water with the Magic power then needed to be able to pressurise it and finally be able to aim it out of my mouth without hitting myself which happened a fair bit.

And the hardest was breathing the earth which required me to basically create rock within my mouth and then shoot it out within the very narrow amount of time so that the other that were being created wouldn't block my mouth and by proxy block my throat.

But once I got the hang of it, it became extremely easy to do which could not be said for imbuing conceptual magic into my breath such as time or space magic.

But one day I felt it, a rip in my minor dimension was being created and thank's to the knowledge that was endowed within my spirit I knew that it is The only way for me to get to the true dimension where I would then be considered born.

As I was making my way towards the rip I began to feel some unknown pressure coming from the direction I was heading but the pressure was to insignificant for me to care.

However, as I got even closer to the rip the pressure kept increasing slowly, but by the time the rip got within Visual range The pressure becomes so excruciating that I realise that there was a potential predator outside the rip.

I felt absolutely terrified but fortunately I could create a illusion that will surround me that looks like myself but much bigger.

Creating an illusion is something all dragons can actually do if they feel they're in the presence of a predator until we can master the ability then we can use it whenever and however we want, because dragon illusions are so hyper realistic that they can actually affect reality with their illusions The only downside is that it can also be dispelled by using dispell.

So I did just that, I used my illusion magic to increase my size and by proxy my threat level in hopes that The potential predator right side won't realise that it's an illusion.

Once I left the rip I flew around two celestial objects and then roared.

Then I looked in the direction of where the pressure and the threat I was sensing until I noticed a living creature there was smaller than I am at my standard size, it is a bipedal lifeform with white skin, brown hair and green eyes.

I then heard a sound that filled me with dread to face the being before me, But once I made eye contact with it I felt a sensation I did not expect, familiarity.

…

After realising that the dragons size was only an illusion and giving Firefly a piece of my mind I soon made eye contact with the dragon and felt a odd Sort of familiarity with it.

After we looked at each other for about 5 seconds I cast dispell and the dragon start shrinking rapidly until it was about the size of a Mountain which surprised Taylor at just how much the illusion increase the visual size of the dragon.

As Taylor approached the dragon, the dragon also approached Taylor until they were about ten meters apart.

They kept feeling each other out, well, as well as one who has no combat experience and one that has next to no combat experience can feel out an opponent.

Eventually, they both decided in their heads to talk first.

" What's your name?"

" What's your name?"

They said at the same time.

They both paused for a moment, before laughing.

" hahaha!!!"

" Bwahahaha!!!"

This was primarily due to the fact that they were both doing this to appear less Threatening to each other while still being cautious of each other.

Eventually, Taylor was the first to speak.

" My name is Taylor, what's yours or do I need to name you?" Taylor asked in a slightly joking manner.

" No need to name me, The universe has already told me my name, it's Albion."

As they chatted for a while while still being cautious of each other they slowly built up a rapport with each other, over the many days they were looking at each other, they both decided that they would trust each other to be friends.

They lowered their active defences with only their passive defences remaining, Taylor also ordered a standown of all of his weapons that the androids and robots had readied from his battleships.

[ Congratulations, Master, you have witnessed the birth of Albion and have received 10 special pulls.]

' Oh right I forgot that the birth of Albion was a Canon event.'

They then began to travel together around the milky Way where Taylor would introduce Albion to all the different sights in this Galaxy that he had seen and sometimes they would discover new sights together.
