""""""" In the throne room""""""""
As per usual daily meeting just finished and now only Charlotte and Lilly were in the room.
"Charlotte when are you going to take me to meet Emy's son " Lilly asked in a serious tone.
"Why are you so eager to meet him? " Charlotte asked.
" I should have met him much earlier if you had not given me so much work " Lilly exclaimed.
"Haaaa you really want to meet him that much " Charlotte laughed and said.
"Yes of course Emy is my disciple and like a daughter to me, and also you said that your grandchild is a genius, and started to absorb mana when he was 1 week old " Lilly said.
" Don't make an excuse, I know what you want, you want to convince Emy to make Aaron your Disciple too, just like you did to me while crying " Charlotte said with a long gaze.
" N-Nonsense when did I even cried for making Emy my Disciple " Lilly Stuttered.
"Haaaaaa, have you forgotten, whenever you took an a disciple you were so barbaric towards them that they always ran away, and after hearing what you did to them neither there parents want nor them wanted to be your disciple" Charlotte said while laughing.
" That's a different story, those children were not hardworking so they got afraid of little training but I never cried for a Disciple, hump " Lilly said.
" Lilly I think you should go to alchemist " Charlotte said.
" But why? what happened to me" Lilly was confused.
"Because you forgot that you wanted a disciple from Knights and magic Academy so that you can train them to become a champion of one in 3 years tornament in the academy, so that you can boast to others that he or she is your disciple" Charlotte said.
" I just wanted to train someone to become strong like me, not to boast " Lilly suddenly added.
"Okay okay no need to say anything, I will take you to meet him but you will not talk about disciple to Emy as I'm taking Aaron as my disciple " Charlotte smirked.
" It's not fair, it's not fair I also want him to be my disciple " Lilly said hurriedly.
" hmmmm , let me think, yes I have an amazing idea if Aaron awakes wind affinity you will train him but if he awaken fire affinity I will train him, how about that " Charlotte suggested.
"Yes, that is better " Lilly smirked as most of the elves awaken plant and wind affinity only, but she she didn't knew that Aaron has a Cheat.

While they were talking two figures suddenly appeared infront of them "susssssss".
These two were none other than Mark and Villy.
"Greetings your majesty" they both said while bowing.
"How many times I have to tell you when we are alone there is no need for the greetings "Charlotte said in annoyed face.
" But Charlotte you still our Queen " Villy said while scratching the back of his head.
"But we are also childhood friends " Charlotte said.
" Okay okay Charlotte no need to get angry, we have very important thing to tell you " Mark said.
" What is it? " Charlotte said in serious tone .
" We followed the shadow Dragon just like you said and reached the abandoned village in Atlanta Kingdom and we saw.. " Mark stopped.
" Then what you saw? " Charlotte asked.
" Mutated humans " Villy added.
"What, how is that possible " Charlotte exclaimed.
" We don't know, when we reached there shadow Dragon had killed them all but after that something strange happened " Villy said.
"What?" Charlotte asked with the serious expression.
" The Shadow dragon was sucked into a portal and it struggled to come out but failed to do so " Mark said.
" I think it was a trap for shadow Dragon" Charlotte said after thinking a little bit.
"But how can they kill it, it is the strongest being we have seen till now "Lilly exclaimed in surprised.
"No they are not powerful enough to kill it, they must have trapped it in another dimension with external help " Charlotte said.
" Yes it was trapped " Villy said.
"How do you know " Lilly asked.
" Because after it got sucked into the portal some people wearing cloak came there and we heard them saying something in human language, but thankfully we knew the language, they said that """dragon will be only trapped for 25 years until then they have to complete their task """" . Mark said.
"What task? "Charlotte asked.
" We don't know, before we could hear more one of them with strange voice found out that someone was watching them, and he send his tamed bugs towards us, and they chased us for straight 3 months, man they were so annoying we were always on run " Villy said with angry expression.
"Why didn't you killed them? " Lilly asked
" Like we didn't wanted to, but we were not able to kill them" Villy said.
"Why? " Charlotte asked.
" Because they were only shadows" Mark said.
Charlotte and Lilly were surprised.
" I think something big is going in Atlanta Kingdom" Charlotte said .
"And, I also think that someone powerful is supporting them in Atlanta Kingdom so that they can do what they want" Charlotte added
" How do you know ? " Lilly asked.
" Atlanta Kingdom is not that weak, if this cult is operating there someone has to be supporting them from shadows" Charlotte said.
"Should we inform their King? " Villy asked.
"No , I think the person that supports the cult has closer relationship with the king and knows his every decision, I'm not sure but I think we should wait a little bit " Charlotte said.
Things are getting bad they all sighed.
