Skill 1/3

("Are you ready boy?") Tydris said.

'I am ready..' Ethan nodded his head as he relaxed his mind and body while sitting near a tree.

("First off, let me explain. Dragon magic is split up into three different categories. Elemental, Space, and Spirit. Elemental is the easiest to control while Spirit is more complicated. Summoning a Dragon Guard falls under the Spirit category. You will need to work your way up before trying to summon more. ")

'I see...what are all the elements? Fire, Water, Wind, Earth, and etc.?'

("Along with Ice, Light, and Darkness. However, I warn you now that you shouldn't try to use the Darkness element without having a clear mind. The element is known to corrupt the users as time presses on...which is why Shadow Dragons were such a pain to deal with in the past. They are lethal tricksters that strike when their foes are most vulnerable. ")

'I see...I'll do as you say and leave it alone for now. I'll just stick to the basics.')

("Very well..")

"Ah~ Honeybun looks so dreamy when he's focused like that." Harley smiled as she stared at him with her big beautiful blue eyes from a distance.

"Don't you have something else you can do besides stare?" Pamela asked whilst reading a book on parenting she had bought yesterday. The redhead wanted to be prepared for when the baby comes to join them. 'I wonder what name I should call you...perhaps I'll talk it over with Ethan?'

"Well, I would do something, but I still feel a bit exhausted... I'm still kind of sore down there..."

Pamela rolls her eyes and goes back to reading her book. It would be a lost cause to get Harley to do anything unless she's asked by Ethan.

'I swear she has nothing on her mind except for him...I can't exactly blame her... Well, he does look cute when he is focused. ' She smiled as she watched him while placing a hand over her belly. 'You see that...That's your handsome papa...'

The villainess found herself talking to her unborn child as she thought somehow he or she could hear her thoughts when addressing them. She didn't have a reason nor proof of it happening, but from time to time she could feel something moving in her stomach as if they were saying, 'I'm here mama!'

Pamela swore she had dreams talking to someone as they cuddled in her lap, but every time she woke up she couldn't remember any of the details.

Was she just too happy to start a family with the man she loved?

Or was it something totally different?

'You won't tell papa about mama's secrets when you're born will you?' Pamela thought as she feels sudden movement in her abdomen, causing her to smile even more.

Ethan happened to see this while he conjured a ball of fire in his hand, and loses control of it.

*Boom* The fire exploded in his face, burning his face and part of his clothes, making him look quite comical.

The girls were startled by the sudden explosion, but it was small and they knew Ethan was immune to such fire.

Myra and Harley dashed over to him to help clean himself up, but his eyes were locked on his first wife. She told him how she wanted to make him a slave on that night, but he essentially flipped the script on her and it was one of the best things to happen to him.

'Stop smiling too much...you look beautiful.' He mentally said to Pamela, causing her face to blush and hide her face with her book.

'Is this better, love?' She replied, sounding quite sarcastic.

'Absolutely not, I can still tell you are doing it.

'You're just out of luck then arent you?' She laughed as she placed the book down on the table they set out earlier.

'Ah so mean! I wish to trade my first wife for someone else!' Ethan complained as he frowned, causing the two girls that were checking on him to think that he was in pain.

"Hold on Master! I'll go get the emergency kit from the RV!" Myra shouted, dashing into the RV.

"No! I was going to do that!" Harley quickly followed Myra to try to get the emergency kit before her.

Once the two were out of sight, Ethan would stand up and walk over to Pamela with a giant grin on his face.

'Me? Mean? Couldn't be! And you are stuck with me. If you ever think of leaving me, I'll tell our unborn child that you were a terrible father. I'll even tell them about your secret obsession.'

Ethan gasped, "You wouldn't!"

Pamela narrowed her eyes, " I would. I can be quite petty sometimes. " She said right before sealing his lips with her own. The kiss wasn't out of lust, but of pure passion and love for her man as she stood up to embrace him.

Pamela slowly pulled her lips away as she gazed into his eyes, "I'll tone down the smiling so I won't disturb the baby."

"The one inside of you?"

"No." She answered, sticking her tongue out. "I'll let you train all day today, but tomorrow let's go out to eat, you and me, ok?.."

"Yes, ma'am."

"Good boy. I'll put in a good word for you. I'm sure our child would be thrilled. Oh speaking of-"

"Master! I am here! To save you!" Pamela was interrupted by a shout from Myra as she leaped out of the RV.

"No fair! You're taller and heavier than me! I want a redo!" Harley complained.

"You two are overacting. Ethan is just fine." Raven spoke up as she floated down from the roof of the RV to his side.

"Now will you please be quiet. I was trying to meditate." The half-demon sighed, pulling down her hood.

"Do you do anything else other than that? Sounds boring to me. I wonder what Honeybun ever saw in you-ow!" Harley said right before getting flicked in the forehead.

"Don't be mean," Ethan replied before kissing the villainess's forehead.

"Mmm...I'll stop for a kiss." Harley grinned, moving closer to him

"How about...no." Ethan shook his head.

Harley's eyes widened from shock, "What?! Nooo!"

"Yes, I won't kiss you on the lips for the rest of the day. I'm punishing you. " He declared.

Raven felt a bit hurt after what Harley said, but after Ethan stood up for her, she couldn't help but chuckle until he turned to her. He had a look in his eyes that caused her to shiver in delight as they were full of desire.

"W-what?" Raven blushed as Ethan's arms found their way around her waist after Pamela moved away from him on her own accord.

'Ugh...he's definitely no good for me...I can't keep calm around him anymore...' She bit her lip as she drew her lips near to give him a light peck that quickly turned into passionate kissing. 'Ethan...hurry and get stronger...I don't think I can wait that much longer...I was taught to get rid of all worldly desires...but.'

Ethan growled, snapping Raven out of her daze. It took everything he had not to push her down, but he remembered he made a promise and he plans to keep it.

"You're so greedy...having so many women around you."

"I'm a terrible person." Ethan sighed, shaking his head. "But, I can't help like what I like and what I like, I want. And I want every single one of you. I won't let any of you go."

Hearing those words seemed to raise everyone's spirits and even Myra who looked at Ethan with hopeful eyes. Ever since the kiss she initiated left her wanting more, but she started to have some questions as to why her master was so against it.

She loved him just like the others if not more.

Why can't she have the same treatment?

Was there something wrong with her?

'Am I not enough?...' Myra frowned.

Sooner or later, something will have to give but whether it will end good or bad, that was something left to fate.

'I'll talk to her tonight.' Etan thought to himself.

Ethan would then take a short break before continuing his magic training. It wasn't hard to draw upon his essence, but when it came to controlling that was a different story. He to not only know and think about the element, but he also had to use the right amount of essence or a small explosion would be the least of his problems.

However, like all things one earnestly tries to learn, they'll eventually learn a thing or two after practice. Ethan could finally keep a fireball steady and he could even toss it from hand to hand.

Seeing him learning fire magic made Harley immediately want to learn, however, her trying just ended up making her lose several pieces of clothing.

The villainess had no sense of control or just didn't want to control it.

But just like her obsession with Ethan, she became obsessed with trying to learn, luckily Raven was around to keep the forest from burning to the ground.

Pamela was quite pissed at the mess, but a few words from Ethan made her calm down considerably.

During all of this, Teekl lazily slept in a area with the most sunlight, but suddenly it sensed something strange coming from the woods

*Meow?*
