Chapter 388 A Visit From A Dragonic Ancient Part 1
The dragonic king turned to see one of the ancients standing there and bowed his head. "I am sorry to trouble you."
"It's no trouble at all. I actually wished to speak with this drakani. But let me tell you one thing. For the time being, do not go to war with them. We must stay peaceful with them until we can grow our strength. The reason I am going this time is to judge the people of destiny city with my own eyes. I want to see just how strong these people are." The dragonic ancient replied.
"I will heed your words." The dragonic king already planned not to start any wars with the drakani. He would only be asked to destroy his clan if he did. They did not know the strength of the clan or just how many drakani were still alive. If they overstepped they would be in a lot of trouble.

A few hours later, Blake had long left with the bird man of the beastkin clan. The dragonic ancient arrived outside the gates of Destiny City. When he laid eyes on the city that was brimming with life and technology he had never seen before he couldn't help but look at the scene in front of him with wide eyes.
"The drakani are truly marvelous people to be able to build a city like this. My clan can not even compare to this city alone." With a heavy sigh, the dragonic ancient landed at the gates. He did not dare try to fly into the city as it would be disrespectful.
"State your business!" A young human boy walked over with a musket in his hands. He held it upright and was not pointing it at the dragonic ancient.
"I am here to speak with your leader. My dragonic clan had sent a messenger earlier, but it seemed they were trying to start a feud between our two clans. As one of the ancients of the dragonic clan I have come to talk terms of peace between our clans." The dragonic ancient was not prideful in his words and even bowed slightly to the young human boy. He knew proper etiquette when it came to making requests.
"I see. That man from your clan was very rude, not just to our lord but to everyone he came across. I must warn you that in order to enter the city, you will have a temporary magic contract placed on you. It will only be activated while in the city. Once you leave the city, it will naturally be canceled. If it is not, you can come back and let us know we will be sure to remove it for you." The young human boy explained.
The dragonic ancient understood this as this was a minimum requirement in any clan. "That is fine."
With that, the young human boy waved his hand, causing a magic circle to appear. To the dragonic ancient's surprise, the power of the contract from this single young human boy was much stronger than he had ever imagined, and on top of that, he did not even chant anything!
He was stunned that a guard at the gate would be so strong and a human at that. But then he remembered the humans of the past and realized that this was actually not out of the ordinary. That was until he stepped inside the city and felt a great pressure weighing down on him. The auras that were all over the city made him sweat. These strong auras were much stronger than him. If the owners of such auras were to be angered, he felt like they could probably destroy hundreds of his clan in an instant. "This is strange…."
"You will get used to it." The young human boy replied with a prideful smile. "This way. I will lead you to the palace."
When the dragonic ancient was brought to a stone door in the side of a cliff wall, he frowned slightly, thinking he was being made fun of. But he held his tongue and followed the young human boy inside. It was when he saw what was on the inside that he realized that he should never judge what the surface looks like. The inside was riddled with things he had never seen before. There were screens on the walls showing different moving pictures. Lights that did not look like they were made with magic and many other strange round metal objects with tiny lights on them that floated through the air with a red beam spreading out all over the place.
"This way." The young human boy ushered the dragonic ancient to the elevator and pressed the button for the floor the palace was on. All these new and strange things started to make the dragonic ancient want to submit to the drakani!
When the doors to the elevator opened, he was met with a huge underground palace. The palace was beautifully crafted and really made him wonder who could craft such a fine palace. But his attention was soon taken when he noticed the naga guards with black fog surrounding him. He could feel the power of these guards was much stronger than his own. "Umm, excuse me, but are those just guards?" He couldn't help but ask this question because to have power of this level and only be a guard made him wonder just how powerful the ruler of the drakani truly was.
"They are just guards." The young human boy answered with a nod. He brought the dragonic ancient to the gates of the palace where Clance, Faana, Olinia, Olia, Yiki, and Titi were waiting, along with Gemini, Josline, and Noa.
When the Dragonic ancient saw many of his own kind standing there, he felt a little more comfortable, but he also felt slightly conflicted. So many royal daughters were now under the drakani's command. And not just that. The elven princess and a princess of the dwarf clan as well. This was just….
"Ancient Tamal. It has been a while." Clance stepped forward and bowed her head slightly. "Our husband is out at this time, so we will be the ones receiving you today."
