Fairy Tail: Transformation Mage - Volume 1 Chapter 40 The Will Of The D.
After all the things regarding the complicated stuff were done Damian and the others gathered all the soldiers and mages around and told them about the people who came from Dragonof but not about the discussion they had among themselves so as to not make the soldiers panic.
After they were done with that the soldiers were having mixed feelings about how the things were proceeding. On one hand they were happy that their idea about the alliance was coming to fruition but on the other hand they were nervous they were going to be dragons who would be coming in their camp and if they decided to attack all of a sudden then there was no way that they could survive an onslaught from a group of dragons and that too who are from Dragonof who are consider stronger than the usual wild dragons because of better nutrition and training.
All of them just followed the orders of their higher-ups and gathered in a formation encircling the entire area only leaving a part for the people from Dragonof to enter.
Soon all of them heard noises and looked up in the sky only to find a group of Dragons with people on top of them coming towards them.
Damian and Rung just ordered the others to be on their guard and not be rude to them while also keeping their calm and not freak out just because of being so close to dragons.
The dragons then landed in front of them with Belserion being in front of them and the rest of them behind him.
Belserion looked towards Damian and nodded his head to which Belserion nodded his head in response as well.
Seeing the tension between the two of them the rest of them just remained silent and waited for things to proceed.
Belserion was the one to break the ice and said, “I presume that you must have already talked about the matters regarding our visit to you all Mage from Adroelia.”
Damian just smirked and said, “No need to be so cold to me Belserion and regarding the matters, yes we have already discussed about them amongst ourselves.”
All the soldiers from Adroelia were surprised on seeing Damian talking so casually to a dragon without any ounce of dear in him and their respect for him immediately grew once they saw him being so fearless against a dragon. Something which was not left unnoticed by Belserion who thought, ‘Their trust in the kid is very strong and they too are getting less tensed in our presence. Looks like the kid was not wasting his time in Adroelia afterall and this respect for him among the soldiers in a proof for that.’
Belserion then internally smirked and then said, “Then I don’t think that there is any need for us to talk about this matter anymore, we just need to form the formal pact between the two kingdoms an-”
Before he was able to finish Damian interrupted him and said, “Regarding that, there are a few things that we want to talk about so if you don’t mind can the ones who are here for the diplomatic reasoning among you all come up with us.”
Hearing that all of them were surprised except for Damian and the ones who discussed with him earlier.
The people from Dragonof looked towards the masked man in confusion but soon turned towards Belserion for further instructions.
Belserion who heard Damian’s proposition them thought, ‘What is the brat planning now?’ and nodded his head in approval.
Seeing him nod one more dragon along with two humans one male and one female both looking a bit old came forward seeing Damian and Rung thanked them for cooperation and led them to a tent.
Once they were all inside Damian put a silencing enchantment around the tent to prevent the discussions to be heard by the people outside.
Damian then looked at the people from Dragonof and said, “Regarding the alliance we would like to first make sure whether…” and once again started to explain/bullshit what he told to the others before the meeting.
During the discussion the people from Dragonof were a bit angry since Adroelia was doubting them and thinking that they will use some underhanded tactics but were not able refute Damian’s logic and finally agreed with him.
Damian just smiled and said, “You all don’t have to worry, it is not like we don’t trust Dragonof, if that were the case we would not have bothered to form an alliance. It is just that the current situation of the kingdoms is rather…uncertain. So we apologize if we hurt Dragonf’s pride and honour.” and bowed his head towards the old man and lady and the dragons which was soon followed by the other members of the Adroelia higher-ups as well.
Seeing them bowing in front of them the man and woman, even the dragons were really surprised since they didn’t expect the people from a kingdom who set them up for an alliance will bow towards them at all.
Belserion just chuckled and said, “We surely don’t mind such actions since it is only logical for you to worry about your kingdom, but we hope that we get that military help that Adroelia promised about in the alliance contract as soon as possible, the allied kingdom’s army have already started to march towards us.”
Hearing that all of them raised their heads and Rung said, “Don’t worry about them, we will be not too far behind you all, and once we reach there the allied kingdoms will be forced to back off. My men are more than capable of handling some soldiers from their side.”
Damian nodded and said, “And my mages are more than enough to strike them down the enemies in both close quarters and ranged fights. You don’t have to worry about leading them as well. My man Micro D. Rung (A/N: #The will of the D) is the one of the best generals you can get, also his name says everything.” and patted Rung’s shoulder who immediately had some tick marks appear on his forehead and he shouted, “THAT IS NOT MY NAME YOU BASTARD!!!”
But soon he realised where he was and gave a fake cough and said, “My apologies, my colleague just like to crack jokes, no need to take him seriously.”
Damian who heard that looked to his side and murmured, “Just like how ladies do not take you seriously after seeing your d.i.c.k Micro D. Rung.” which was easily heard by all of them and they were just controlling themselves from laughing.
The old man who was somehow able to control himself looked at them and asked, “So who would be the ones joining us back to Dragonof?”
At that Damian and Clive raised their hands to which the man just nodded and and then said, “Lastly, you..” and pointed at Damian making him and the others slightly surprised.
“We cannot just allow someone who is wearing a mask to head back with us, there may be a chance of you being switched with someone and that may be dangerous for us if the one who kidnaps and replaces you is an enemy so would you mind showing your face to us.”
At that all the people who were from Adroelia were greatly surprised. The number of people who have actually seen Damian’s face back in Adroelia could be counted on fingers with Rung and the king being some of them and him being asked to show his face to the others was something that even the Adroelians were a bit excited for.
Damian just shrugged and said, “Sure, no problem” and removed his mask, showing his blue eyes and fair skin to everyone and all of them except for Belserion and Rung were a but surprised on seeing him.
Damian than soon put his mask back on and said, “Then lets not waste anytime and proceed without further adieu.”
‘Hurry up I want to see Irene as soon as possible.’
Belserion who got the hidden message nodded and said, “Yeah, let’s go as soon as possible, we would certainly like for the queen to hear about the good news afterall she is ‘sacrificing’ herself for the good of the kingdom. I would personally like to ‘tell’ her about this.” ‘Just wait and let me deal with that self sacrificing red head queen, she was totally bull shitting the whole time during the meeting about self sacrifice when the things were clearly in her favour. And the worst of all she didn’t even consulted it with me.’
Damian who got the hidden message as well nodded and thought, ‘We both have the same goal but the cause is different. Let’s meet my self sacrificing queen.’ and left the tent along with the others.
