-And that how i got this job and how i ended here.

-...

Sera...she was honestly speaking wide eyed.When i told her my story she had more then once stopped and asked me something in more detail i didn't tell her about my ability to stop time nor did i tell her about the book because these things are rather kept secret even for friends other then that i just told her that i knocked the guard unconscious and walked the stairs up meeting the old guy fighting him and killing him in the end i explained that i jumped down the prison roof but wasn't injured which was a bit controversial but she didn't ask me at that point and i just continued my story of how i ended here.

And right now sera was a bit in a daze like state staring at me i have to admit the story i just told her sounds even fake to me but its the truth.

After couple seconds sera shook her head and said.

-Did you ever wonder why you were there in the first place ?!

I stopped thinking......yes i did wonder about that but i never investigated that matter...why was i there in first place ?

I had this this strange ability to stop time on my will and i never questioned how i got that ability i always just thought it was because of the drugs that made me this way but....its really not likely that was the point was it ?

-no

I said now my head was going to all kinds of directions who are my parents ? even stella both of us don't look alike and i cared for her when i 6 years old when she was just a infant just because someone shows you a baby and tells you its your sister doesn't mean it is....

I clapped my cheeks very hard sera got a bit surprised by that and jumped backwards....it doesn't matter she is still my dear sister i will deal with the consequences when the time is right.

i sighed.

Sera looked a bit apologetic and didn't say anything.I cleared my throat.

-So isn't it time for you tell me you story.

She shrugged when i reminded her but then she made a sorrowful smile the atmosphere really turned gloomy i thought.

She stood up from her seat and looked through her ruble of tools and other tiny devices and finally found something a frame a picture frame...

-here

She gave me the picture frame and it showed the photo of sera when she was small she looked adorable and had a large smile on her face behind her were another 2 individuals one female one male both of them were dwarvens described in fantasy books the female was holding a pickaxe while making a smile and the male was just hugging sera with a big smile both of the dwarves looked really strong with their muscles they were also really short the background was a wooden wall and a workbench at the side this picture was a bit odd but the expressions they showed in this picture was almost only once in their lifetime kind of thing.

-that is my foster father gunter and the woman is my foster mother carina the place the picture was take is from one of the fey realm i don't know which realm it is the village is a place behind the big forest that is next to the volcano.

The picture was a bit damaged but what was really obvious was that the corners of the picture was burned a bit the frame also had charred spots on it.

Sera continued her story her voice was a bit sad.When i talked about myself i knew i wasn't really sad just a bit irritated.

-you see the moment i left i started living for myself i didn't want to kill anything to survive and just searched for fruits and vegetables by the way i hate vegetables i don't like fruits that much too dragons are omnivores but mostly eat meat gaining their nutrition but nowadays.

She pulled out a paper bag the smell was a bit strange over all because it had traces of many other vegetables combined into it the logo on the paper bag was a big V that said Vegan burger.

She made a self mocking smile and said.

-I try to be a more different dragon so people don't run away looking at my eyes for example.

Hmm did she eat that thing for the last years ? her over all strength wasn't much but she is a dragon after all is this the reason why she is that so weak at the moment ? i can also see she gets tired very fast for some reason from what i know dragons are famous for having the longest lasting vigor and stamina there is....

-Anyways i was later found by my foster parents when i was half starved because i couldn't find anything to eat they gave me a meat stew afterwards and i was fine again i ate a lot that day almost 8 bowls...

She got red and stopped talked and then started to swirl her hands around with her red face and said.

-Not that i am a big eater its just i don't gain much because i am dragon you understand and even if i eat a lot i can still hold my figure !

I laughed a bit and waved at her and said.

-i understand continue.

-haha yes....well anyways you already know how the villagers react to me when they found out resulting me living in my foster parents house for over a year without a incident i learned a lot about my parents and also learned to become a artificer and blacksmith..i didn't really practice blacksmithing much over the last years so i should say i am a artificer anyways that picture you see.

I looked at the charred picture frame again.

-you see the day i left the village was also the day my parents died.

I wasn't surprised with her reaction and this picture frame and the handle like device that her father gave her there had to be a major event that should have happened.

Seras eyes were a bit tearing but she took a breath and just looked continuing her story.her eyes were sorrowful but i could also seem a large part of hatred in it.

-That day i was actually getting ready to go to this academy as a dragon i have also something called a dragon catalyst that i can use to produce mana on its own my personal mana reserves were also very large but not many dragons used magic because they already have large amount of physical power.On that day a red dragon descended from the volcano the dragons had actually a treaty that they aren't allowed to attack the fey of their realm but they did it anyways it was only one dragon but it was a strong one a red dragon from the fire element

Her voice cracked up a bit..

-He...he was there for me...

What why ? didn't they exile you ?

-they needed something from me so they searched for me and burned down a whole village in the process no one could fight that even me but the red dragon offered a trade to the dwarven people to give me up to red dragon and he would spare them their answer to that was....a no it was outrages i....i even started walking to the red dragon to give myself in but every villager in that dwaren village declined the offer to give me ....haha....

She laughed a self mocking laugh.

-my father used to say dwarves hold their word and dwarves hold their own no gets behind if they do everyone does its the way of the dwarves after all he would say...

-what happened next

I urged a bit not feeling great about it.

-yeah ehm...the dragon was angry and started burning everything to the ground the villagers fled and the children were sent through a portal to a different place but me i was sent here to the academy with a letter to the new headmaster.

the thing was i didn't want to leave father used a device paralyze me and forcefully send me here....and here i am...i gave the letter to the headmaster and she gave me this room the glamour and a job to do the condition for all of this was to never ever reveal to anyone who i am

Wait she just told me ?

Sera read my confused face her sad face made a smile for a bit and she said.

-don't worry i am not worried that you tell anyone since you told me about yourself

I looked her in the eyes she seemed sincere about she told me huh.

-So do you know why he was searching for you ?

I asked her.

-no but dawn

She stood up and started walking towards the workbench and picked up the handle that her father gave her,her over all all aura was really different for some reason.

-I told you i will some day complete my goal my way not the dragons

Her voice held murder and pure coldness to it i could see where all of that anger went into.

She threw the handle towards me i caught it mid air a bit confused she also changed to normal but she was still sad.

-i want you to keep that take it is a token of gratitude...no as friends

I looked at the handle and then at her she was serious about this refusing this would just end up hurting her i guessed.

-sure but i don't have anything to give you

She shook her head with a slight smile.

-we are friends this is just me

I wanted to argue with her words but stopped and looked at the charred picture framed i had a idea...i concentrated on the picture frame for a bit.

-(beep beep beep)

My phone was ringing it was probably cecilia reminding me that her classes were over.

Sera looked a bit sad at the sound of my phone she probably guess what it was for but didn't say anything.

-I have to go

-yeah see you

i stood up from the stool picture frame behind my back i slowly approached sera she was surprised because of my weird attitude and now were only 30 cm away from each other seras cheeks were dyed pink her eyes were also more clearer this close almost swallowing me.

-ehhm dawn....

-here you go see you later !

I quickly gave her the picture frame and ran out of the room.The next thing that happened was i could hear sera sigh in the other room but in the next second she saw the picture frame....

-ITS FIXED

I laughed while i started heading towards the academy.
