All Chapters of A Dragons Heart: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

After that, we all sat down and discussed the details of the trip. Finally, Walter asked me, "How long do you plan to travel for?" I thought about it, but I didn't have an answer, "I'm not sure. I first want to visit one or multiple human cities and see what they're like." "Travelling to the nearest human city will take you three weeks by carriage, so even if you only visited one city, you'll be gone for at least two months. Not to mention travelling just to the border wall of kiddra will take you a day in one of our carriages." "What about if we fly there? I'm sure flying is much fTom than any carriage, isn't it?" "It is, but you know full well that even flying to the border would take you five hours. So you would be exhausted when you made it to the wall." "Dad, my stamina isn't that bad. I'm sure I can make it there with energy to spare. I'm prepared for the long journey, so please don't treat me like a child." "You may have had your coming-of-age ceremony, but if I compare yo

We continued on foot for a few hours until we were far out of sight of the village and then took our full forms and continued on towards the next town to find an inn for the night. The next day, we stopped at another town, and while there, we bought ourselves new clothes to better blend in with what humans wear since our clothes were clearly too high-class for the average human and even some noble humans. After another two days of travelling, we finally arrived at the Tralux capital city. The city was vastly different from the towns and villages we saw on our way. As we entered the city, Terry asked, "Was there anything you wanted to do here in particular?" "Not really. I mostly wanted to see how humans live. Are they really as bad at magic as everyone says?" "They're not bad at magic. They're just not suited for it. Most humans are born without mana, and the ones that are, are born with next to no mana, making it hard or even impossible to practice. The ones that overcome the odd

Terry dragged me out of the bakery by the arm while I was still trying to process what was happening. Then, feeling me dragging behind, Terry stopped and grabbed me by the shoulders, "Sasha, you need to concentrate! Don't think about pointless things; just focus on returning to the mage guild! I can't drag you all the way there!" I looked at Terry, concerned, "What's going to happen?" "Nothing. We only need to get back to the guild, apply a spell that doesn't rely on your ability to change your eye colour, and then increase our disguise by changing our hair. That woman wouldn't have gotten a good look at you, so changing this much should keep us safe while we're still in the city." Terry and I finally made it back to the guild and went upstairs. As we were wandering around the second floor, Terry realised the human from earlier never told us which rooms were ours, "Damn it! I have no idea which ones are ours!" After Terry said that, a voice came behind us, "Are you two new members?

While Terry and I walked down the hall, we bumped into the vice guild mTom as he left his office. When I saw him, I smiled, "Good morning, guild mTom!" He looked at us confused, "Do I know you two?" "You've forgotten already?" I then remembered we had changed our hair and eyes, "Oh, I'm sorry, you probably don't recognise us. We're the two who joined the guild yesterday. We were just wearing a disguise yesterday..." "Why would you need to wear a disguise?" "Ummm... it's a long story...?" He sighed, "Forget I asked. I was actually on my way to look for you two." Confused, I asked, "Is there a problem?" "No! Not at all! It's actually good news! I've been told that the king is looking for new royal mages, and I thought, with your potential, it would be shameful of me to keep you in this guild! So I wanted to offer to personally take you to the king's castle and give you a recommendation!" "Thank you for your consideration, but I'm not all that interested. I'm perfectly happy here.

Terry and I made our way into the city. Just entering, we started to see there were no actual buildings. Instead, everything was built onto the sides of the trees since they were rather large. There were windows and doorways carved into the sides of the trees, walkways spiralling down the length of them with the occasional bridge connecting them high in the air. I looked around in awe, "I can see why this place can be considered more beautiful than our capital. The designs and buildings are so different from anything you normally see that it's hard to compare them to anything else." "These are just the houses in the outskirts. There's more to be seen deeper in the city." As Terry and I went deeper into the city, we started coming into a natural clearing of trees, and in this clearing, the elves had built a market with stone paths and walls with trees naturally growing over them over time. Seeing everything, I didn't know where to look first, "No matter how much I see, I can't stop
