Chapter -23 : Inside the cave

Ryan and Luna moved deeper into the forest and soon with Luna's help, Ryan saw a tree that had fruits that looked like apple on it.

When Luna pointed towards it, Ryan new that fruits of these tree are edible.

Ryan turned to look at Saphira, who was following closely behind him with a angry face. After seeing her expression, Ryan had a plan in his mind to mess with her or simply bullying her.

"Miss Saphira, are you hungry?" With a cute face, Ryan came to her and asked with a tired face.

Although Saphira was little angry at Ryan because of how much he made her walk but she had to admit that, the boy in front of her was extremely cute.

When she heard his question, she suddenly felt hungry for no reason. No there was reason that this boy made her walk so much. Gritted her teeth, she still replied in annoyed voice.

"No, I feel a little bit but thats not a problem. What you feel hungry?? You should have brought some people who can help you." With extremely arrogant face with her hands folded in front of her chest, she looked at Ryan directly.

"Yeah, I should have brought someone but you see that now only you are here and you are also older than me. So can you help, see that tree over there, why don't you help me get some fruits from that one??"

He put his hands on his stomach and showed that he won't be able to do anything if didn't eat with tiredness filled in his voice.

Watching him like this, Saphira felt pity in her heart. Such a cute boy, she didn't want him to be hungry. Coming next to him, she stretched his cheeks with her hands.

"Next time remember to take someone with you if you go out. It's good that I am here. Ok I will help you get some fruits." She patted his head and moved towards the tree. With a proud smile on her face.

"Umm... Miss Saphira.."

"What miss, call me elder sister.." when she heard miss, she didn't like it so turning she asked to change to something else.

"Ok elder sister, you are dragon right. Can you show me how you look into dragon form?"

"There is no need for that, when I become a dragon, it can't control myself, if I accidentally killed you, how will I answer to your parents?"

Hehehe, little brother, if you want to look at my majestic form than you will be so frightened that you will faint right here.

When Saphira thought about her on Dragon form, she felt proud.

Immediately afterwards, she moved towards tree and punched it hard.

Boom

Tap tap tap

'Damn, she is fierce, I should not play tricks on her otherwise, I will be turned into pig head with one punch.' Ryan shivered at the site of falling fruits. He didn't expect her body to be so strong. With one punch she Shook whole tree. Not to mention that before he thought of making some conditions with her but everything happened so fast, he didn't have any chance at all.

Collecting some fruits, Saphira came to Ryan and gave him. While she herself started eating some.

Not bad, Ryan thought to himself. After, he saw her strength, he decided to not play any games with her or his bones will be turned into paste. He was good with magic but when it came to body strength, any adult can kill him with a punch, on the condition that the can punch him.

While eating Ryan this time took Saphira with him without leaving her behind. No matter what, since he brought her here, he can't just leave her that she might suffer some accident.

"Why did you come here??" After a long time, She finally asked the question which was bugging her. She new that its been some time and it seemed that Ryan was here to look for something.

"Elder sister, just follow, you will see for yourself in a while." With a smile on his face, Ryan led her with him towards north at Luna's signal.

Not long after that, Ryan finally saw something that looked like a cave. In this forest, there are many caves. Animals and monsters, all live into something like this. But the cave in front of him was a little different.

When, he entered last time, he has passed by this cave, at that time Ryan felt something and this time he was here just to confirm if what he felt was true or not.

Moving towards it Ryan felt heat coming from inside of it. Ryan with Saphira and Luna came at the mouth of the cave.

"What is inside?" Knowing that Ryan came to forest just for these cave, Saphira asked. She could feel high heat at the mouth of cave and was curious to what is inside that made temperature at these place so high.

"I don't know." Ryan looked towards her and said.

"You don't know?"

"Yeah.. I don't know."

Damn, why such dumb boy can look so cute.. She was uncertain to what she should say. She really didn't expect that Ryan was here on a whim.

"What with your expression?? Can't we find what is inside after we enter?" He saw that Saphira has expression that said that are you an idiot and became angry.

Hmp

Snorting a little, Ryan moved inside the cave as he proceeded further, temperature rose with it. Now he was sweating and his clothes were also drenched in sweat.

On the side, Saphira was much better. Dragons innately have high resistance towards heat because of which she was not feeling any uncomfortable.
