《Dragon Kingdom's Engineer》Chapter 8: Meaning of life
Advertisement
"Ok, listen I will tell you more than that about the basics, and general knowledge."
"There are thirteen kingdoms discovered in this realm, out of these six kingdoms so far are 'developed' which means they have a hierarchy like royals, nobles & commoners. Out of these six one is an Elven kingdom and the other all are dragon Kingdoms. Remember them if you want to these are Shala Kingdom, Rahn Kingdom, Vrop Kingdom, Dahri Kingdom, Simha Kingdom, and the elven Ahwa kingdom. Elves are not as strong as us dragons, but they produce various herbs and essentials so they are of some importance. Other kingdoms which are not developed are just run by barbarian-type dragons they just fight with each other the strongest dragon is crowned as king."
"Are elves beautiful?"
"Hm yes, they are really beautiful the Ashwa kingdom is a door to the Elven realm so you can go there if you want there are no restrictions on dragons nor humans to travel there."
"Really? But then do they don't have fruits? Don't they travel to dragon kingdom's?"
"Yes they do but their fruits are more like vegetables, bland or just not that appetizing flavor."
"Oh if you want to meet one then the 2nd princess of Ashwa Kingdom is coming to the palace this week I guess, I think she will be here to get your fruits and maybe something diplomatic."
"Oh, okay then are the other kingdoms than the developed Kingdoms powerful enough to wage war or start a rampage? How special are these developed countries"
"The developed countries are stronger because they have received one or another blessing from The Dragon God. For example we from the Rahn kingdom have received two blessings one of which is to travel to the human realm and I can't tell you another. Only our kingdom can travel to the human realm, but the Shala Kingdom can see the human realm once a hundred years through a mana crystal that's where all our fashion, architecture, and food recipes come from. And no they will be obliterated if they tried to attack any of the developed Kingdom."

"Now towards your question, We dragons don't have a life expectancy like humans, we just dissipate once we are thousand years old."
"What?"
"When a dragon turns a thousand years old its body just starts turning into mana dissipating in air, everything just goes away except a dragon's core it just drops on the ground. Dragon core is a dragon's mana condensed in form of stone. The gem in your bracelet is part of a dragon core."
"The elves are like you, some die at the age of 800 whereas the longest living elf is right now one thousand and three years old."
"Then like what's the meaning of life like a goal or a dream to complete something like that?"
"Let me ask you, What would be your dream if you would've been in your own kingdom.? What would be your life now but there?"
"My dream was to be a magic engineer, I wanted to get into an academy and learn mana engineering and help people in need, get financially stable get out of my kingdom find a place of solitude, get some pets, start a family, have kids, watch them grow, live happily and Die."
'But my parents didn't allow me to get into an academy, I was just a nobody to them, If I was still in my home I would be doing chores, doing chores until I turn eighteen and would be sold off in a marriage to a noble, and live my whole life as a nobody till the end.'Kavya was sad just thinking about her miserable life, her past, and what would happen if she was not here. But right now Kavya has the best opportunity she could ever get she was in the middle of the dragon kingdom where she is worthy enough to be of great importance.
'But, not now I will go back there next year, I will become powerful, I will prove my worth and teach all of them a big lesson, I will not fall but rise to the top.'
"Right now I am one hundred forty-nine year and 11 months old and in a month I will be One-Fifty, My current dream is just to go to Shaala kingdom's Imperial academy, where I want to learn more about different foods and paintings in general, I haven't thought much of my life till now. I'm just 149 years old after all. In terms of human age, I think I may be Fourteen years old." Shri looked at kavya and saw her sad face to which she replied.

"There is a quote written in Dragon god's Diary it states 'Yesterday is history, Tomorrow is a mystery, But today is a gift that is why it's called the present.' He wrote that he copied it from scripture when he traveled to a very unique realm."
"That is a very beautiful quote, It really is."
'Hmm, a unique realm with such wisdom.'
"What else is written about that unique realm in the diary?."
"Unfortunately only one out of eighty diaries is written in kuro other all diaries are written in some weird language, Dragons, Elves, Darwes even fairies are trying to decipher that language. All these diaries are kept in the Imperial Academy of the Shala kingdom, which is even more tempting for me to go there."
"Now that I have told you what you wanted what are you going to make?"
"I'm thinking of making a drink, It's a tasty drink to refresh yourself, it's a really good drink. I think we can make it together so you will learn how to make it."
"Ok, then we will make it together, what does it require to make this drink."
"We will need some leaves of the special plant grown in Ashwa kingdom, I think they are the same as our kingdom from what Ahri told me."
"Are you making tea?"
"No, it's not tea the drink is called paak and the leaves are one of its ingredients, along with sugar and milk."
"Oh okay I will send servants to the palace to prepare ingredients, and it will be the first thing to do when we reach the palace. I am excited this will be the first time I will be doing something with a friend."
'Hmm, a friend?'
"Look that's your cottage, you will be living there, farming fruits, learning magic, and it's not that you are restricted you can come to the palace too if you want in your free time it's just that you cant go out of royal district unless you have adequate protection from father."
'eh? that's not a cottage. It's a fuc*ing bungalow, How much money did you even spent on it, if just outdoor looks like this how nice would be interior?'
Kavya was looking at a two-storey building made up of white marble roughly about 500-meter square area, it had a garden outside with some unknown flowers, a high wooden fence was all over the place obstructing the views of inside, in front of it was one more building, more like a house which too was made up of marble.
"This is the cottage where we will meet very often, and where the Head minister will teach you magic. Mana shield starts right at the gate of your cottage no one except you can enter it there's a field just after your cottage there will be guards just outside and there is illusionary as well as powerful magic around it so no one can see you inside even if you were naked, pfft."
"I am not gonna roam naked in the yard though."
"Go on ahead see where you will be living. I will wait here. Tell me if there's anything you need even if it's for you, remember you are royalty now, just behind the royal family you are of heavy importance to us."
"Thank you, I will remember that and will do my best to repay your kindness."
"It's okay, now go on."
'God don't let it be a trap.'
