Chapter 261: CH.258 Dragon Riding with the Prince

“Good morning, Your Highness.” I greeted the Prince at the door of the guest house he was staying at.

“Didn’t I say you can be more casual while outside of official business? Just call me by my name.” The Prince reminded me.

“Of course, Elias.” I agreed. I honestly just used ‘Your Highness’ to confirm today’s situation.

 

After breakfast, I had gone separate ways from Alice and Lua. Those two went with Mariina to have some sort of magic test/show/witch exam thingy, while I came to have the promised dragon ride with Elias. Agunan was with me, and I asked Ria to go with Alice and Lua. 

 

All three of us, Agunan, Elias and I, got into the same carriage and headed outside the city.

 

During our ride, I carefully asked about the Bloggs family and the punishment they got, and the Prince proudly told me.

“I had the head of the house step down, and the first son took his place as Baron Bloggs.” He answered. “The previous Baron was also sent to the capital where he will work with the butchers to collect blood, which will then be sent to the dhampir safe-town closest to the capital. I hope you like what I came up with.”

“... how did you get him to agree to that?” I questioned. I actually kind of like the poetic justice of him collecting blood for the dhampirs he so despises. But to me, that sounds like two punishments. Losing both his position, and being sent into forced labor.

“It was either that or have his entire family executed. He quickly agreed to the terms.” Elias said, smiling.

… I don’t think you should be smiling while you say something like that.

We finally came to a stop about an hour away from the city. … that is a stupid way to measure things. Measuring with time, our distance would depend on the speed. Well, the horses pulling our carriage belonged to the Royal family, so they were some of the best, and the carriage was high quality as well, so we were 20 kilometers away from the city walls. Perhaps a bit further away than we need, but better safe than sorry.

 

After confirming the perimeter, the Royal guards allowed for one of Elias’ maids to open the door to our carriage, and we stepped outside.

 

“Please stay there. I’ll summon the dragon now.” I told Elias. During our ride, we already spoke about which dragon I’d let him ride. He was very interested in my white dragons, but for obvious reasons, that ain’t gonna happen. Instead, I’ll let him ride the golden one. But for that, I’ll need… “I summon three Troop Dragons.”
