《Breeding Dragons From Today》Chapter 7: The Elf Maiden

By the time he returned, the caravan guards were already cleaning up the mess.
Corpses were strewn all over the ground.
There were robbers and guards.
All of them had sad expressions on their faces.
But when they saw him, all of these emotions turned into excitement.
All of them looked at him with respect and even admiration.
The image of Joelson, who was slightly thin, was magnified in their hearts.
"Sir Joelson!"
Benson came up to him excitedly. He looked at Joelson with a hint of respect.
"Thank you for saving our entire Caravan!"
Joelson waved his hand indifferently. It was nothing. He just wanted to find someone to test his fireball spell. Moreover, if he didn't do anything, the bandits would definitely find trouble with him in the end. It would also affect his speed of arriving at the capital.
"How are the casualties?"
Benson's mood fell. He said sadly, "Eight guards died and five were seriously injured. When we go back, the Chamber of Commerce will give a certain amount of compensation to their families. However, we almost wiped out all the bandits. These damn bastards."
Joelson nodded and told Benson that the leader had been killed by him.
Benson let out a sigh of relief, but soon his face showed shock.
"I didn't expect Sir Joelson to be a powerful third-rank mage. If I remember correctly, you are only sixteen years old."
Benson had thought that Joelson had the potential to become a mage, so he took the initiative to talk to him and get to know him.
He didn't expect to meet a powerful third-rank mage by accident.
A sixteen-year-old third-rank mage?
There were only a few in the entire Alcott Empire.
A genuine genius!
Joelson was stunned, shook his head and said, "No, I'm not a third-rank mage, I'm just a first-rank mage."

"Impossible!"
Benson could not help but say, "To be able to cast a fireball instantaneously, your strength must be at least third-rank!"
Only then did Joelson realize that he seemed to have done something amazing.
All mages needed a spell to guide them in using magic, and they all needed a certain amount of time to guide them. To be able to cast a spell instantaneously required at least tens of thousands of times of practice or some special talent.
Only mages who were at least tier three could cast a level-one spell instantaneously.
After Joelson explained it to Benson, Benson was even more delighted.
Benson clearly regarded Joelson as someone with a special talent.
A 16-year-old Tier-1 mage was also an outstanding achievement.
Moreover, he had the talent to cast an instant spell, and he was a genius!
"Please allow me to take care of some things first. Later, I will express our most sincere gratitude to Sir Joelson on behalf of the Lucca Chamber of Commerce."
Joelson nodded and was willing to accept it. After all, he had saved so many lives. If he did not give others a chance to thank him, they would feel embarrassed.
Benson quickly left and gathered a few people to make preparations.
Little Martin rushed up from the outside, his face full of excitement and ecstasy.
"Young master, you are already a noble magician?! You were so powerful just now! That's great! You are really too handsome. When the baron hears this news, he will definitely jump up in joy. That's Great!"
Young Martin was so happy that he did not know what to say.
Because of Joelson, the others also treated young Martin with some respect. This made him feel even more proud and honored to be young Master Joelson's servant.
Joelson smiled and shook his head. He returned to his carriage to recover the spiritual power he had used during the battle.

When night fell, Benson knocked on the door of Joelson's carriage.
"Sir Joelson."
Benson greeted him respectfully, "I'm here on behalf of the Lucca Chamber of Commerce to express our most sincere gratitude for helping us today."
Joelson noticed that there was a carriage behind Benson.
It was the carriage that was covered with a thick black cloth that he had been curious about previously.
"Sir Joelson, weren't you curious before? I didn't tell you the truth at that time, but now I can give it to you as a small gift. I hope you will like it."
Benson took two steps back and ordered someone to remove the black cloth on the carriage.
Joelson was stunned.
So this was not a carriage at all, but a prison carriage.
There was a huge cage on the carriage.
It was made of steel bars, like a huge birdcage.
Inside the cage was a girl.
A very beautiful girl.
Her skin was white, and her facial features were exquisite. Her long, pale golden hair hung down, giving off a faint luster under the moonlight.
Her sky-blue eyes were as beautiful as a lake, but at this moment, they were filled with timidity and fear.
The clothes on the girl's body were very strange as if they were woven from leaves and vines.
What puzzled Joelson the most was her ears.
Spindle-shaped, with a sharp tip.
This was an elf?!
"The elf girl from the Elf Forest is our most precious cargo."
Benson introduced Joelson.
"The elves will not give their virginity until they are a hundred years old. She is only fifty years old this year, and she is still keeping her virginity."
Benson's face showed a smile that all men understood.
"Then, I wish you a wonderful night."
After saying that, Benson left without waiting for Joelson to speak.
Joelson felt a little helpless.
He never thought that Benson would actually give him an elf girl as a gift.
He wanted to refuse, but the soul from Earth made him subconsciously reject this behavior of treating people as goods.
But when he thought about how he happened to have a maid by his side.
Little Martin was too stupid. At most, he could only be used to run errands.
So, he accepted it.
Joelson walked to the prison carriage and opened the iron cage.
The elven girl's face showed fear, and she shrank to the corner in panic.
"Come here."
Joelson extended a hand to her and looked at her calmly and gently.
The Elven girl's eyes flashed with hesitation.
This human...
Didn't seem evil. There was a special aura about him that made her feel inexplicably at ease.
The Elven girl finally held onto Joelson's hand.
Joelson pulled her out of the prisoner carriage.
"So beautiful."
Martin, who was at the side, was already stunned. He stared at the elven girl with infatuated eyes.
Joelson snorted, and Martin quickly ran away.
"Young Master's woman, you can't look at her! You Can't look at her!"
The elf girl and Joelson held hands, feeling nervous and uneasy.
She was like a frightened kitten, feeling like she was going to run away at any moment.
Joelson took her to the carriage, took out some dry food, and handed it to her.
"Let's eat something first."
The elf girl was obviously famished. She grabbed the wheat cake and began to eat it.
Perhaps because the wheat cake was too dry, and she ate it too quickly, she choked in no time.
"Cough cough..."
The elf girl coughed violently.
"Don't rush, eat slowly, drink some water..."
Joelson smiled and handed her a cup of water.

And with those words, everything Darkos knew about his friend is turned on its head. Geela, far from a naive farm girl, is a 70-year-old Dark Mistress, hell-bent on exacting revenge on her ex-husband Barney for cheating on her, trashing her place, and changing the locks. Geela is everything Darkos has sworn to defeat. A bastion of dastardly deeds. A pinnacle of evil... ...so of course he finds himself tagging along.
8 172Candor: The Forgotten House
*** Please read note below *** As a 16-year-old mage from a powerful family, Jayce Candor had known from a young age what his future would hold. As the fourth son in his family the possibility of him becoming the heir to the household was very small. But, with his talent as a mage, his potential accomplishments in the military could lead to titles of nobility and political power. However, on what would otherwise be an unremarkable night, everything he had ever known, the only people he ever cared for, and all of the plans for his future were destroyed. House Candor, one of the six great houses that helped build the Eldoran Empire had been erased from history. By imperial decree, all those bearing the name Candor were hunted down and executed as traitors of the Empire. With no home, no family, and only death waiting for him, Jayce decided to escape north to the uncharted Northern Territories to begin a new life. Forced into situations he was never prepared for and trying to cope with his past, Jayce tries to find safety in a place spoken about only in legends. There for the first time, he will make true friends and find people he will come to see as family. He will encounter strong enemies, build powerful alliances, and become a person his ancestors would be proud of. But surrounded by creatures he thought only existed in tales and pressed by the Empire’s constant expansion, Jayce’s safety may be only an illusion. To survive a world fraught with danger Jayce will need to grow stronger with each new experience and rebuild his once forgotten house. ********************************************************************** Note: The story starts slow. Although there is more action as the story progresses, there is a fair amount of introspection and character introduction in the first 30 chapters. Jayce is the main character, however, other characters play a large role and the story is seen through multiple POV's. This is a draft, it is not a finished work. This is not a story that focuses on an OP MC who beats up on weaklings. At times there can be a fair amount of internal monologue. Some of that may be edited out when I rewrite the story. I decided to keep it in the draft because I think it is better to have too much material rather than too little when I edit. Constructive criticism is appreciated as it helps in the editing and rewriting process. Check out my other story Shattered Mind here
8 290The Demon Lord who wished to be a Hero
This is the story of a person who in his life born and raised to be scary and dangerous. Being born from a Yakuza/Mafia family, his face and physique showed signs that you would expect from someone in that line of work. The funny part is, he doesn't like his family line of work and is actually a nice person, yet everyone is afraid of him except a few. However their was a strange occurrence of a "Game Pod" being sent out for game newly released for random people. The only thing people know is that is a post to be an VR RPGMMO. Which our Main character gets as well as his "Friends". He plans to become a Hero in the game however, he becomes the Opposite of what he wishes to be, and the game isnt actually a game (Hello! This is my first story Ive ever written and will post on Royalroad! I hope you will enjoy it and I really appreciate constructive criticism! I will probably edit the synopsis In a later date and if you have any ideas for it I would really appreciate it. And on one more note sorry for my spelling and grammar, sorry if you see any mistakes and point them out for me, please *Bows* Oh! I keep forgetting things! XD This story will have elements of other stories I have read, an example is RE:Monster and its ability to allow monsters to evolve at a certain threshold of levels. [ 15+ (Maybe even higher...) Strong Language, Blood/Gore, Sexual innuendos or content] ) [Found the Pic on Google images, not owned by me]

E se as estrelas tivesse um papel mais importante do que só enfeitar os céus? E se elas estivessem presentes em uma pessoa? E se alguém tivesse poderes de te encantar com apenas as cores e os brilhos de seus olhos? " Uma voz grossa ecoou atrás de mim, fazendo com que eu me virasse a procura do tal. Me virei e me deparei com um garoto, aparentemente pouco mais velho que eu. Ele se aproximava e me olhava de uma forma que ninguém tinha me olhando antes. Ele adentrou seus olhos nos meus e a cor deles me lembravam estrelas. Seus globos oculares eram tão brilhantes e azuis quanto e minha vontade de descobrir quem era, era maior ainda. Ele era indecentemente lindo, ele era perfeito, instigou meus instintos em segundos e meus lábios se puseram a arder e meus dentes a beliscá-los."Sarah era apenas uma em meio a milhares de outras garotas de dezesseis anos, mas quando o amor bate á porta, e um garoto como Rafael Lange aparece em sua vida, negar é apenas a segunda opção.- Capa feita por Laura Machado (Fábrica de Capas)
