Winter mornings

Cold air filled the entire royal capital.

Last night's snow turned to hoarfrost.

A peaceful scene hung over the land, and most of the people of the Castle of Justice were still asleep.

Except for one young girl.

Vivien, who had woken up early in this cold weather.

Although the Constructed Maid in the castle can take her place in the task of buying food, she is still used to going to the market herself and picking the freshest ingredients to cook for breakfast.

Those uncles and aunts who get up early and go to the market to set up stalls to sell vegetables and fruits also like to serve a little more vegetables to this silver-haired girl with her own affinity.

(If this is built to be bought, they can weigh it for a full pound and a good Samaritan.) ）

There's no way, the appearance is here.

Pretty little girls are welcome wherever they go - if you also have a Magister badge to keep you safe from outside interference.

"Hmm-ah~~~"

The girl squinted her eyes and stretched lazily in the quilt, but inadvertently touched a hard thing above her head.

"Huh? What is so hard? ”

Vivien hurriedly rubbed her sleepy eyes.

She opened her eyes and looked up, only to see what was between Tina and her pillow.

It was a sleeping iridescent dragon with a blue star nightcap.

It is worth mentioning that although Tina's body is shrunk under the covers, her hand grabs Ron's slender restless dragon tail.

The girl smiled and did not speak.

She gently lifted the quilt and got out of bed, then cautiously walked to the hanger, changed her pajamas, and put on the clothes that Ron had given her.

Vivien was almost silent in the process, not waking any of the dragons.

Her control over every part of her body is beyond the limits of the average person's imagination, and she is like a legendary assassin.

For the first time in the history of the Astral Plane, the blood of Titans and Dragons has been mixed and fused in the body of a human.

What kind of change this will make is unknown to everyone, including God.

Although Vivien didn't understand why the power in her body had skyrocketed since she met Ron.

Recently, even in the moonlight, she began to be able to manipulate a wisp of silver moon power!

But Vivien didn't resist.

She is happy to see the change.

This proves that she is getting closer to her goal of being able to help Ron.

After getting dressed.

The girl pushed open the bedroom door and stepped into an old stone corridor with a camel red pile carpet.

The corridor was illuminated by the golden glow of the morning sun shining through the windows, reflecting the murals and sculptures on the walls, all of which had been well protected from the previous night's wind and snow.

Vivi walked quietly down the hallway, her feet on the soft carpet, a faint echo of the gauze.

She came to a spacious study filled with richly decorated shelves and desks, each of which was a source of wisdom and knowledge.

Soft wall lamps cast a warm glow and bring a sense of tranquility and stability to the entire room.

The girl went to the window and opened the heavy curtains.

The sight in front of her made her feel refreshed: the forest in the distance was covered with a thick layer of snow, and the branches of the trees were covered with crystal clear ice hangings, glistening in the sun.

Although the sky was just dawning, the streets of the royal capital were full of people in a hurry.

Footprints of varying sizes were left in the snow, and a gentle smile appeared on her face.

Vivien returned to her desk and sat down, stroking an ancient book on the table.

This book is one of her favorite fantasy tales, with legendary adventures of warriors and dragons.

Most importantly.

The warriors in this did not defeat the evil dragon and complete the great cause of dragon slaying, but abandoned the princess with their backhands and lived with the evil dragon.

There are many types of this type in the royal capital bazaar, and the price is also very cheap.

They were written by bards.

Because of the pressure of life, this group of guys will write this kind of non-mainstream story - everyone likes to watch this kind of reversal plot.

After all, who wouldn't want to have a powerful dragon girlfriend or boyfriend?

as everyone knows

Dragons have eyes that can appreciate the beauty of any race, and they will mate with almost any creature.

And human-dragon hybrids are not a few in Karen.

Like the kind that is not much different from humans in appearance, it is called [Law Scale].

There are also real dragons that are mistaken for standing on their hind legs, which are called "human dragons" or "dragonborns".

All true dragons are multibiotic, and there are very few true dragons in the basic astral realm that lay only one egg in a litter.

Unless, the pregnant female dragon experienced something unusual that led to this.

A normal nest of dragon eggs is usually 2-4 or more, and dragons are nowhere near as difficult to fertilize as depicted.

In fact, the dragon is a creature that is far more fertile than humans.

Five-colored dragons or metal dragons that have entered their teenage years, as long as they want, can even give birth to a litter of eggs every year!

And some irresponsible dragon mothers (especially five-colored dragons) will even throw their eggs everywhere, so that there are often rumors of ordinary people picking up dragon eggs and hatching them as partners.

(Of course, the vast majority of the ending is actually the end of the human being being fed by the hatchlings of the hatchlings.) ）

Despite this, the vast majority of dragons refuse to do such a thing as a breeding machine.

Pregnancy is a job that greatly reduces combat effectiveness, especially when caring for a young dragon, and can almost bring a halt to the true dragon's dragon life progress (collecting treasure or traveling the world).

Dragons love themselves more than their children.

Even the metal dragons, who cherish their children, will find it difficult to escape this law.

But the offspring of dragons born to humans are very different.

[This refers to the example of a female human being pregnant with a male true dragon child]

They are not oviparous, they are viviparous!

But think about it too, if a female human is pregnant with a dragon egg.

Needless to say, that's going to happen.

Therefore, human dragon partners will not have much problem in mating and fertility.

Vivien, who was going to meditate for a while before going grocery shopping, opened the idle book again.

"What if."

She looked at the child born of the union of the brave man and the dragon, her face was a little blushing, and she didn't know what she was thinking.

——————————

A warning must be given here.

According to the investigation report released by the famous mage and polling organization [Wizards of the Coast] in the astral plane.

Only 5% of dragons and human companions are able to last more than seven years, which is often referred to as the seven-year itch.

And 95% of human dragon partners didn't even make it to the sixth year, either actively or passively broke up.

And most of the reasons for the end of the human-dragon partnership end with the death of one party!

And according to the outrageous investigation report:

The number one reason for the breakup is the end of the dragon swallowing the human companion.

The second most common reason for the breakup was that the dragon relatives who came to visit ate the human companion.

Combined, a staggering 50% of human companions die in the dragon's womb!

Besides.

Another 12% of humans were crushed to death on the spot because the dragon was not paying attention when it rolled over in bed.

Of course, there are also some less bloody and relatively social issues.

About 8% of human dragon partners break up due to a lack of communication between human dragons.

In this part, many dragon partners gradually lost the beauty of love because of the eyes and environment of the people around them, and lost to the daily life of firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea.

There is also the fact that dragons outlive humans, which is an inevitable problem between short-lived and long-lived species.

This has also led to poignant love stories in which many young dragons send away their white-haired human partners before they reach adulthood.

In the astral boundary, the more typical is the love story between the old mage and the white dragon.

The power of true love does not seem to be able to stop the footsteps of the longevity theory.

But there's one thing to be warned!

Those [cheating] incidents, which are almost the number one reason for the breakup of the partnership between humans and humans, rarely occur in the love between humans and dragons, accounting for only 5%.

And among the small number of cheating human dragon partners, it is basically the dragon side who cheats.

As we all know, what is the dragon nature~~~

If it's a human side cheating. Then most of their love stories will go to extremely bloody endings.

The dragon allows him to wear hats to others, but if he finds out that his partner (in a relationship) has betrayed him, then he will fall into absolute thunderous rage.

In addition to the above points, there are some outrageous reasons for breakups that make those who see the report jaw-dropping.

For example, some humans were so excited to enter the dragon treasury that they jumped into the pile of gold coins, resulting in skull injuries and death

There are also humans who break up with their dragon companions because of metal allergies.

And that's not the most outrageous of all.

The reason why 2% of human-dragon relationships ended was because humans ate their dragon mates!

Yes, you read that right, there are humans who have eaten their own dragon wives

Humans, it's amazing~~~

In addition, the life scenes of dragons and humans are far less harmonious than those of Tina and Shirley.

Some of the dragons' preferred nesting sites are not actually suitable for human habitation.

For example, you expect to live a fairy-like life in the forest with the green dragon, but in reality you can only polish and rust the gold coins in your partner's treasury every day in a humid jungle environment (which the dragon considers a sign of supreme trust).

You may even run into some adventurers who come to the door to smash and loot treasures, so you can only hope that the battle between them and the dragon will not affect you

And the living habits of most real dragons will also be quite different from those of humans.

For example, the temperature of bathing (bathing) that red dragons like is slightly higher for humans

———————————

Vivien is immersed in the story, imagining herself as the protagonist in it, dispelling the cold of a winter morning.

Suddenly, a maid knocked softly on the door, holding a cup of hot fragrant tea in her hand.

The wolf ears with long pale blue fluff and tail prove that this is a rare orc maid.

And the black lace maid outfit had an unusually harmonious beauty on her body.

It's an instant.

"The Describie black tea that Duke Rodney sent the day before yesterday, I guess you might need a pick-me-up."

He said with a smile as he handed over the white porcelain gold-rimmed teacup.

"It's also early in the morning."

Vivien looked at the clean-wiped spiral staircase outside the door, unaware that the other party had already finished cleaning up the Castle of Justice in the morning.

As a representative of the castle that gets up early and goes to bed late, Moment is definitely a standout.

No way, the physical talent is here.

Half-orcs only need half the sleep time of a normal person to maintain enough energy to do a day's work!

This is also one of the reasons why orc slaves are so popular in the market.

Vivien usually goes shopping for ingredients on her own (Hermione follows behind her and secretly protects her).

And cooking will be involved in it for a moment, and her current cooking skills are not inferior to Vivian's skills.

"Thanks, great help."

Vivien raised her head, smiled slightly at the Ice Wolf Clan girl who was also an early riser, and took the teacup, the warm smell wafted into her nose.

She sniffed the teacup in her hand gently, and the strange fragrance made her eyes light up.

She carefully raised her glass and took a small sip.

The warm tea soup glowed crimson, flowing smoothly down her throat, bringing a warm feeling that refreshed her whole being.

"Hmm! It's delicious. ”

Vivien was pleasantly surprised, feeling full of energy and strength now.

Instantaneously smiled and replied, "If you like, I'll help you put a cup here tomorrow." ”

"Great, please, moment!"

Vivien wasn't polite to her, she knew that it was really about her.

Knowing Vivien's habits, she nodded and stopped talking, gently picking up the silver plate and leaving the room.

Her posture is graceful and her manners are perfect, like a fine maid who has been professionally trained.

The environment can change a person.

Who would have thought that this girl of the Ice Wolf Clan once looked embarrassed in an underground prison.

Now she shows a flawless demeanor and temperament, a transformation that is unimaginable, as if she has never experienced those difficult days.

Watch as the large, supple blue tail slowly disappears behind the door.

Vivien smiled.

The girl took another sip of black tea and felt the warmth spread from her throat to her body.

"It's a beautiful day."

Vivien hummed an unknown country tune that her childhood playmate had taught her.

Ron's return makes her happy.

Instead, she decided to spend her morning meditation time celebrating it with black tea.

Happy times always go by quickly.

"It's not too early, it's time to go grocery shopping."

The silver-haired girl put down her teacup and stood up.

Put on a heavy shawl and leather boots,

Step out of the study and push open the castle gates.

The cold wind caught her face, making her red shawl flutter.

She tightened up, the oncoming wind making her feel a little cold.

But as the sun rose, the sunlight shone on her body, dispelling that chill and warming her body.

"Let's eat roast rock sheep for breakfast today!"

The girl said to herself.

Preparing food for the three dragons was hard work.

Luckily, she does this a lot.

Facing the sun, the silver-haired and red-eyed girl smiled and embarked on a new adventure today.
