28 On the way to Squamata

We returned to the castle rooms, to rest and get ready for tomorrow.

[Kaiba]: (I was already surprised that these guards had not been posted to follow us today. But then I realized that They have been behind us all day, this time they wanted us not to notice, but thanks to the ability Ignar teached me I could feel their presence. I still don't know what this king really wants from me, because nobody gives a favor like that for nothing.)

[Drake]: "Come on Kaiba, get it out!"

[Kaiba]: "Eh? Oh right. I have a little surprise ready? "

[Kaiba]: (I hope this is not a bad idea. Then I will worry about what the king is up to, although I don't think that him is our main problem.)

I took out 1,300 gold coins and scattered them around the floor of the room. They stood still watching the abrupt appearance of all those gold coins.

[Kaiba]: "They are all yours for now, then I will keep them. That is our savings so don't lose them."

Drake and Rhaegal went for the coins and Luna stared at me, she seemed a little angry about something.

[Luna]: "Where did you get all those coins!"

[Kaiba]: "From the dungeon we were in, there was all of that there so I kept it."

[Luna]: "And when you were supposed to say it!"

[Kaiba]: "Well, for your reactions. I wanted you focused on getting here as soon as possible, to avoid what you see now with those two and with what happens to you, you are drooling looking at that gold and you don't even realize it."

[Luna]: "Maybe but ..."

[Kaiba]: "Don't complain with me Luna. Today I will leave you because we are going to be busy for a while, so enjoy yourself when you can. I also feel that attraction but for now I repress it."

[Luna]: "You say that but you're not resting with us, come too."

[Kaiba]: "I will do it just let me a few minutes and I will go with us."

Luna was silent for a few seconds and flipped to gold. I find it funny how dragons like gold it seems that the legends of the earth were true.

So they had a good time, while I was lying down thinking about everything that could come our way and especially by those guards who were going to accompany us tomorrow, they were going to limit myself to using only my element of ice, I do not want to highlight more than that I already did.

I remembered the two books I had and try to read one of them, if what they told me is true when studying it the book will be destroyed and I will get the ability. A somewhat curious method of obtaining a skill.

I started reading everything in the book, and as Ignar said a while ago one of them was a kind of teleportation spell, which taken to its highest degree would allow me to go long distances, although it can be used in combat quickly to go a certain distance will increase according to the skill of the user.

It works by creating a dimension that you can quickly traverse to go to the other side of the crack it creates, but for this to be possible, the user has to be in that place, I can't go to places that never were.

[Kaiba]: (So basically, I create portals to go from one place to another.)

I keep reading the book the book, there were some warnings about the spell. Basically they said that it was not recommended to be in the created space for a long time until the user mastered the full ability, because the dimension may not be stable and be destroyed, and even fully mastering the spell the long-term effects of the spell are unknown.

[System]: "The Host wants to obtain the ability to create dimensions."

[Kaiba]: "Yes."

The book in my claws began to deteriorate until it was destroyed into dusty.

[System]: "Host has obtained the dimension creation ability."

[Kaiba]: "This should be quite useful, although putting it is dangerous, I should try how long I can hold inside the dimension, it could be useful. In other words, I should notice when a whole dimension is self-destructing I think."

I decided to join my Siblings in gold, but I kept thinking that this weakness for gold may be a problem. Although I did not see other dragons around here with those problems so I suppose that over time it will be better controlled.

Better not comment when we were awed with the gold, until we fell asleep on top of it, but without missing the detail of everyone on top of me. Seriously I know that some reptiles did this to keep warm when they are young but at this point it doesn't make as much sense anymore and they continue to do so.

The next day we were ready to go. I saved all the gold in my inventory, we met with the pair of guards who had to come with us. There were still a couple of hours left for the meeting with the merchants, so I take the opportunity to buy some meat and fish for the journey.

We were waiting for the arrival of the car with the merchants near the exit door of the city where the guild indicated us.

I could catch a glimpse of a car pulled by a species of dinosaurs, although that clearly did not exist here or would have a different name. The one who drove the car seemed to be a male dragonborn with green scales and some white scales on the part of the neck that went down reaching its tail from the back and was accompanied by a dragonborn with blue scales, regarding its height more of the same as the other dragonborns about 2 meters and 70 centimeters. I walked over to ask one of the two dragonborns who were driving the car.

[Kaiba]: "Hello, are you the merchants who were looking for protection to carry the merchandise?"

[???]: "Yes, we are, I suppose you are what you accepted the order."

[Kaiba]: "Right."

Seeing me, the dragonborn looked a little excited for some reason.

[???]: "A pleasure that someone like you is with us. But forgive my daring, but according to what I had informed, there were four not six.

[Kaiba]: "Ah don't worry about those two, they are just here to watch over me, as you will have seen they are from the royal guard, but if it is about the money don't worry they don't charge for this mission."

[???]: "Then you really are a Royal dragon!"

[Kaiba]: "If I am or am supposed to be, there is no problem with it, right?"

[???]: "Not none, only I feel ashamed for not even knowing the existence of another one of the royals."

He bowed before me, along with the other Dragonborn, this was a bit annoying for me I never liked being the center of attention.

[Kaiba]: "You don't really have to do that, you can treat me like someone else if you want, I have no problem. I have only been here a short time, so it is normal that you do not know who I am and I doubt that my appearance has been made public. My name is Kaiba. And yours? "

[Gabiru]: "My name is Gabiru and here is my wife Souka"

[Souka]: "It's a pleasure meet you Kaiba."

[Souka]: "It is a pleasure to meet you and to join us on this journey."

[Kaiba]: "The pleasure is mine. Allow me to introduce the others, that white dragon is Luna, the red dragon is Drake and the green dragon is Rhaegal, they are all my siblings. "

After the presentations and a few small talks on how we will travel. There was only the problem that of course putting 6 dragons in a car was not feasible so we had to go to the side of the car or fly.

We follow the car along the road and finally we are out of the city, to go to another to explore those ruins that caught my attention.
