Chapter 993 A Strategy Meeting
-----
Miranda joined us in the middle of the breakfast as she woke up, walking out of her own room this time around. She had one of her own, although most of the time she either slept in our bed or within Benladann"s soul. But I guess she might want some privacy time from time to time or something. Nonetheless, her appearance cheered up the girls, she was their favorite aunt after all.
"Auntie!" Benladra said without even failing to say the full word! Miranda quickly patted her head.
"Miri…" Kate said, she had begun calling Miranda as "Miri".
"h.e.l.lo to you too." Miranda said with a smile, hugging the two girls and kissing their forehead.
"You won"t believe what we did last night." Said Benladann.
"Eh? Ah… For the fist time in a while I slept in my own room you know? Please don"t tell me what I"ve been seeing most nights already…" Miranda sighed.
"Ah! Not that!" Benladann quickly calmed her down.
"Y-Yeah, it wasn"t that. In fact, we were too tired to do any of that." I said.
"Eh? Then?" Miranda wondered, raising an eyebrow.
And then we went on about what we did and what we saw. Miranda"s face quickly distorted slowly, growing more and more shocked about the whole a.s.s adventure we had inside the Draconic Records.
"What in the h.e.l.l?! Did you seriously…? Wow… I wanted to go there too!" Miranda said while pouting, as she began to hit my chest.
"Ah? Well, I kind of forgot to try to bring you there. But it is also up to Benladann, you"re connected to her Unique Skill after all!" I sighed.
"You didn"t felt anything weird with my mind or soul?" Wondered Benladann.
"Well when I am far away from you and in another room, my connection with your mind is very numb. This also helped me sleep like a baby… I kind of like having my own room too." Miranda said. "So nope, unless you spoke to me directly through telepathy, I wouldn"t had been able to tell… Ah well, I don"t even know if I could even get inside that draconic record realm."
"I think you could, Benladann could so, if you"re an extension of her soul and a result of a unique skill, it might be possible… Ah, sorry if that sounded somewhat rude." I said.
"Ah, don"t worry, I get it." Miranda said while rubbing her chin. "I guess we could try next time." She shrugged. "But what about the babies?"
"They couldn"t get here either, they had yet to awaken something Drake"s parents called "Draconic Avatar"… Or something." Benladann said.
"Wait, what? What is that even?" Wondered Miranda while raising an eyebrow.
"It is like the form of their dragon… form." Said Benladann.
"Yeah, whenever they finally turn into dragons, they"ll be able to get inside. But as of now, even though Benladra has fought some foes, she still had yet to awaken her dragon form." I said. "For the moment, I don"t want to rush her, so she"ll awaken it whenever she feels like doing so."
"Hm, I agree." Said Benladann.
"Could Kate also do it?" Wondered Miranda, petting Kate"s silver hair.
"I think so, yeah, she"s also a dragon." I said. "She"s also part spirit… or something similar to that. She"s the most mysterious of the two now that I think about it… But I am sure she"ll be able to do it just fine." I looked at my cute Kate as I petted her head. "I know I can trust her in that, eventually she"ll do it."
"Awuh…" Kate began to lick my finger.
"Ah… Well, she"s still a baby after all." Said Miranda.
"Baby!" Benladra said, petting Kate.
"You"re a baby too dear." Said Benladann.
"Uweh?!" Benladra reacted surprised. "Wo… Baby wo…" She said.
"No?" Asked Benladann. "You"re clearly a baby!"
"Uwuhh…" Benladra got all sad out of nowhere, she didn"t liked to be called baby apparently!
"Ugh, okay, okay, you"re not a baby! You"re… a slightly big… girl." Said Benladann, quickly trying to find something to say.
"Hehehe…" Benladra laughed while puffing her chest. She knew exactly what we were talking about, somehow.
At the end, we decided to quickly make a meeting after we were done eating breakfast and taking a bath. Benladra and Kate were playing around the corridor of the room with the Divine Harvest Spirit of Benladra and Frost was watching over the two as well. Most of my friends were here right now, most of the ones that became G.o.ds as well.
"I know we don"t have much time so I"ll go the point. Right now we"ll be moving to the Heaven Port capital. The Cooking Contest is beginning soon so I want to get there quickly. Not because I want to delay Ruby"s rescue or something, but due to my own personal reasons. Don"t worry, I"ll be dividing my body in two, my other main body will go to rescue Ruby with those that want to join me, I would appreciate all of you guy"s help." I said. "Sorry if I sound selfish or like an a.s.shole for wanting to do this cooking contest…"
"Ah, no, don"t worry, Drake." Said Rakasha. "I understand what you"re coming for, and with your help at the side its more than enough. I know you"re busy and you want to also dedicate yourself to your pa.s.sion. It might be hard but I"ll help in rescuing Ruby. My powers have developed into something more than just forging, I"ll show you when we get there."
"Alright then. Thanks, Rakasha." I said with a smile. I knew he was the one missing Ruby the most. She was like his daughter after all. He must be heartbroken, and it makes me feel really bad, even more when I enjoyed myself so much last night with my dragon family.
"No problem." Rakasha said.
"How are we doing this then?" Asked Tisha.
"Well, for starters, I"ll use my first body to go to Heaven Port, I"ll form a team of those that want to come. Somehow, I"ve been investigating the place and… yes, there are Vampires roaming around. They might be up to something, so we need to be careful." I said.
