《The Dragon’s Kin》The festival is here and I'm grounded!
Advertisement
Today, the festival starts.
Sitting on the bed, while still grounded by mother, I could hear the laughs and cheers from outside.
"Mom!" I couldn't wait any longer, so I shouted towards the room door.
"What's wrong Tama?" opening the door from outside, she asked me if something was wrong. The gift I gave her eased the punishment, but I still got grounded.
"Uhm... Mom, why can't I go out?" I asked her.
"You know full well why" she smiled at me, while still implying that my punishment won't change.
"It's not fair!" I tried to throw a tantrum.
"Human kids can go out and play!" trying to persuade her.
"Human kids don't beat up thugs and scare them to the point they fade" she said so with her dark smile reflecting on her human face.
After I came back from my market stroll, I was forced to tell her everything.
I should have hidden the fact, that I got attacked by those thugs though...
"But they were the ones that started it!" I really wanted to see the festival up close, so I tried to make excuses.
"That's true, but you left without getting a permission" she had a point. While I might look like a 10 year old girl, I'm still a young dragon. If anything happened during that time, she wouldn't know where I was.
"B-but I really wanted to see the city" *sniff* *sniff*
Trying to soft her heart to forgive me, I started lightly sobbing. It was super efective!
"Tama! I will take you somewhere" seeing me like that, she ran up close and tried to cheer me up. I did used my most efective weapon after all.
"Just don't cry" she said so, as she hugged me.
I'm sorry for those who are weak to my sobbing. It's just that, it's the most effective way to persuade someone.

After few minutes of hugging, she gave me a head pat and spoke "It was mainly my fault for being late" while her expression softened.
I did disagree with her though. It was my fault for going out without her. That moment, I wanted to apologize for worrying her.
"Mom, since you were late...where have you been?" instead, I asked one question that came to my mind.
"Fufufu...At the Hunter's Guild!" she answered with a small laugh.
"You see, I'm registered Hunter and I went to register you too" she said so proudly.
Huh? Did she just say Hunter's Guild? This kind of fantasy organization exists here too?
More than that, she registered me as Hunter!? Mother, what were you thinking!
Seeing me dumbfounded, as if she read my mind she continued.
"I did it, so we can accept quests together...only me and my little daughter~!" she said so while holding her hands on her cheeks. So this was your main reason...
"B-but aren't I only 4 in dragon years?" I asked.
"Don't worry, since your human form looks like 10, I registered you as such" she quickly answered.
But mother, that's cheating!
Well, she is technically registered as human while being more than 600 years old...
As I was about to voice my objection, the thought of going outside to hunt monster came to mind. I might as well use this to improve my human form!
Having no reason to complain, I said so.
"I will be hunting with mother? Yaaay~!" I smiled. Seeing her satisfied, I changed the conversation.
"But, uhm... Can I go now and see the festival before we do that?" I asked, while trying to get her permission to see the festival.
"I guess it can't be helped" with a sigh and a smile, she took my hand as we walked out of the room.
Festival sweets, here I come!

The Dungeon that should not be
Humans always wondered if they were alone in the universe. They theorised the possible existence of different universes. Humans also neglected to care for their planet and their greed prevented them from moving to renewable energy. The pic is not mine, if the artist has an issue with me using it as a cover I will get rid of it.

Wizards of the Otherworldly Court: End of the Five, Twenty-three, and Twenty-nine Years Story
Alternate titles: - Five, Twenty-Three, Twenty-Nine Years - 5, 23, 29 "Dad? I think I got a really bad fever, why do I still feel fine?" "It feels cold..." Five years ago, Owen became a Court Wizard in search of his father who was lost to the unknown three years prior. But that wasn't the beginning of the story. Maybe it began twenty-three years ago when Ronald Bell and Joshua Ruze saved the Illyer family. Or perhaps, it all started twenty-nine years ago, when Ronald, the son of the wealthiest merchant, became a Court Wizard. Well, it doesn't matter anymore, for the story five, twenty-three, and twenty-nine years ago shall now meet its end. 2nd book written in the Wizards of the Otherworldly series. Read Wizards of the Otherworldly Court: Alicia first. This story is split into two 'Collections,' Ronald's Collection and Owen's Collection, each centering around those Court Wizards. Crossposted with WordPress site, Wattpad, Sufficient Velocity, and Rainobu. Wizards of the Otherworldly Court is a fantasy story about the Otherworldly Court, an inter-dimensional (or world-hopping, you get the idea) organization made up of people of all ages, gender, and race from many parallel or different worlds. They are granted elemental-like magic powers and called themselves 'Court Wizards'. They are tasked to watch over the many worlds they come across and step into these worlds on 'missions' to preserve the balance, life, order, anything to make said worlds better places in the shadows but may reveal themselves if necessary. However, these missions may partially or even fully oppose their nature, personal interests, and ideals. Yet, most of the Court Wizards are aware and willing to complete even the worst missions that would shatter their true selves that they will never cast aside regardless, either growing or regressing because of it. Basically, it's isekai to multiple worlds but each book after Wizards of the Otherworldly Court: Alicia focuses primarily on one world while also discussing its lore in detail. Book Alicia is the introduction containing the essential worldbuilding of the Otherworldly Court universe you need to know while shoving in as many characters and worlds as I can. Also, each book will have a different main character, sometimes more than one in a single book, like Jojo.
