Lady Julia and Xander explained the new barrier and since I have nothing better to do I listen to it attentively. Their idea was actually really amazing and informative. I have to say Lady Julia was really great when it comes to magic.
After they finished the discussion, I waited for Lady Julia and Xander to leave the room so I could talk to Head Magus.
"Xander, are you coming?" Lady Julia asked when she stood up and realized that Xander was not following him.
"You go ahead first, I have something to discuss with the Head Magus and Lady Audrey." He said and Lady Julia was left with no choice but to leave.
I honestly would prefer if Xander just left with Lady Julia. I don't want to talk to him.
"So tell me, why are you av
"Hey, you were looking for me?" I asked when I came out of the room and saw Xander sitting in one of the chairs. "Yes. You said I never tried to find you so I've come to find you." He replied and I smiled. "I'm sorry for shouting at you and avoiding you." I told him honestly. "Let's walk outside. It seems like Greg wants to go home now." Xander said and I agreed. We walked around the port area. "Why are you avoiding me?" He asked. Now, how to answer that. "I am not exactly avoiding you. I was really busy with all the happenings the week before so I don't really understand how you can say I'm avoiding you. Is it because I w
"Saintess Audrey von Garrick, we would like to plead with you to please save this country and kill the dragon." His Majesty pleaded and all the other nobles followed his plea. This day finally came. I received the request to enter the palace yesterday for a meeting with all the high ranking nobles together with Head Magus Dithran, Xander, and Lady Julia as representatives of the Tower of Magi. Xavier and Lis had given me the heads up about this meeting a few days ago. I have been locking up in the laboratory with Xander trying to create an offensive spell that could defeat the dragon. We came up with a few of them but there is no dragon to test it on so we don't really know how effective it could be. Xavier had been busy with his duties, he was still doing all the tasks that Stefan should have been doing with Lis
See now everyone, this is how a crown prince should be. Look, Your Majesty, this is how your next in line should act, not some coward who only knows how to push responsibilities to other people."Are you sure, Xavier?" His Majesty asked worriedly."Why are you asking that? He already volunteered. He can't take it back." The queen said in panic.His Majesty looked at the queen and Stefan with so much disappointment but those two didn't care and continued to push Xavier to go."I will go father. Lady Audrey is a good friend that has helped me a lot. This time I want to repay that gratitude by assisting her." He said resolutely."Alright, Prince Xavier would join Saintess Audrey to subjugate the dragon." His Majesty announced.
This day had finally arrived. The day I'm standing outside the dragon lair in the northern forest to kill the dragon. I still can't believe I'm doing this. Can you believe I'm doing this? I'm pretty sure my original aim was to survive and get married and live happily ever after but now, not only am I not getting married, I am going to kill a dragon or get killed by the dragon. Wow. Great. I want to run away. "Are you ready?" Xander whispered beside. "If I tell you I want to run to the other side of the world, would you stop me?" I whispered back. "No, I'll join you. Shall we?" Xander asked. Even Xander is joking around now. This is a sign of how bad our situation is. "What are you two murmuring about?" Xavier asked when
Since I am the strongest mage here, I'm tasked with fighting the dragon, in short, I'm acting as their tank. Xander and Sussie would be my support while Xavier and Lis would give directions to the army. Xander, Sussie, and I are tasked to hold the dragon in place while the army aims the new weapon to the dragon. What's the new weapon? It's a metal rod as big as a telephone pole. What's its purpose? To hit the wings of the dragon and pinned him on the ground. They're like nails that hopefully will pin the dragon to the ground. "Xavier, Now!" I said as we got the dragon stopped moving. Xavier immediately told the knights to fire the weapon and thankfully they hit the target and if they did not, I'll be very pissed the dragon is like the size of a two storey high building with wings.
"Are you alright?" Adekin asked. "I'm alive." I replied. It feels like we've been fighting the dragon for a week now but honestly I'm not even sure if an hour has passed or not already. I'm physically tired. I should have also trained my body. I almost got trampled by the dragon if Adekin didn't save me. "You need to be more careful." Adekin chided. "I know but my stamina is bad." I replied as I tried to catch my breath. "Tell Xavier to start firing the new cannons to the dragon. The mages are running out of mana. Tell him to keep it busy while the mages regain their mana." I told him and assessed the situation with the dragon. Sussie and Xander are currently fighting
Everything happened fast, after he breathed fire on Xander and the others. He charged towards the knights and the weapons, and destroyed it. Afterwards it set its eyes on me and charged towards me. I evaded the attack and used the earth magic to throw rocks at the dragon and pulled it down towards the ground before I looked around and saw the damage. Time suddenly felt very slow, I saw bodies on the ground. I saw the healers running and trying to save those that they could. I kept on looking where Xander was but I couldn't see them. I saw Lis shouting at me. "Audrey! Audrey! Snap out of it and move!" I finally heard what she was shouting about. "Xander…" I called out but I didn't hear any reply. The dragon tried to
"Audrey!" I heard someone call my name. I opened my eyes and saw that everything was white and in front of me and I saw my reflection. Is this the other side? Is it over? "Audrey?" My reflection called, which shocked me, after all, reflections don't talk. "Audrey?" She called once again. I looked at my hands and noticed that it's not the hands of Lady Audrey but my hands, the programmer Audrey. "Am I hallucinating?" I asked. "No. This is the place where our soul stays in our body." Audrey or Lady Audrey explained. "In our body? You are still in this body? Did I possess your body?" I asked, shocked.
