《A Dragon Rider's Element》An Elemental ( 10 )
Advertisement
I woke up to a bright light shining in my eyes. I groaned and raised my hand to shield my eyes from the light. I sat up and looked around at my surroundings.
I was in what looked like the infirmary. The white walls and medical supplies gave it away. There were several other coats line down the wall and several on the other side too. I take a deep breath and look down at my leg. I was surprised when I saw it was almost healed.
Memories of my fight with the Oneirdectus filled my thoughts as I looked at my leg. How in the hell did I shoot fire out of my hands! Needless to say, I was low-key freaking out.
A loud crash pulled me from my thoughts. I slowly got up and gingerly put pressure on my leg only to find that it didn't hurt. Maybe they had a weird healing potion here or something.
As I was walking out of the infirmary I spotted my sword and shield in the corner by my bed. I picked them up and put them on my back in their sheaths.
I walked out of the infirmary to be greeted by the morning sun. My best guess was that it was about seven or eight AM. I turned and saw Athena laying down under a tree. Her head picked happily when she saw.
"It's good to see that you're up and moving. Not to mention clean."
"It's good to see you to Athena," I said laughing.
"How is your leg?"
"It's partially healed. Because of the stuff they gave me." I said shrugging.
"They didn't give you anything that would heal your wounds that fast."
"Really? That's weird."
A lot of this was very weird. First, the fire jazz hands now this. If they didn't give me anything then how has it healed so fast? Not that I was complaining.

"Larisa!" , Alex shouted from behind me.
I turned to face him. His dragon, Blue, was following right behind him.
"What are you doing up. You shouldn't be walking around."
"My leg is fine."
"What?"
I showed him my leg. His face showed the same confusion I was feeling.
"How?"
"I have no idea."
He signed in defeat. He then looked at Athena and smiled.
"It seems Athena has grown up. If I'm right she will be able to fly with you now."
"Yeah, she is. Isn't she" I said evil plans forming in my head.
"What are you thinking."
"Ohh It's nothing. Nothing at all."
"You scare me sometimes. You know that?"
"Good"
I smirked at him as I walked up to Athena. She laughed lowly in my head at Alex's words.
"They shouldn't fear us, but respect us. No one in this camp comes close to our power with an expectation being Ty."
I smiled at her. Man, I love this dragon.
"Oh right I almost forget, the reason I came here is to tell you that Ty got back a few hours ago with the new dragon rider."
"Well, that is good the more dragon riders that are here the better right."
"Yeah, I think so too. I guess I will see you and the new guy at training later. Don't be late, okay."
" I won't, I will see you there."
Alex and Blue then turned around and walked off. Blue nipping at his rider's heels. I sat down against Athena and put my hand on the back of my head. Athena was warm. Her scales were soft but strong the perfect match. We both sat there enjoying our time to relax.
But of course, it didn't last long. A loud roar filled the air ripped me from my peace. I recognize it as Raikou. It was fierce and was full of rage.

"What's going on?" I asked.
"They're hunting."
"Hunting?"
"When Ty heard that you were attacked he ran to the infirmary to see if you were alright. You were still asleep at the time, but he stayed at your side until the nurses force him out. After that, he and Raikou went out to make sure there more creatures out there."
"He did that for me?"
"Yes, but I must say it was funny watching the nurses drag him out by his ear."
We laughed. I wish I could have seen that, but the thought of Ty going out to fight for me gave me chills, but it also gave me a warm and happy feeling. Could he like me? I blushed a little at the thought. Then I quickly dismissed it. He could have anyone he wanted here or anywhere. Why would he want me? I was just some stupid rich girl.
I signed and looked at the sky. I spotted Raikou. The golden dragon was carrying something in his claws. As he neared the ground he dropped it on the ground and I saw what it was.
A Oneirdectus.
This one was smaller than the one I had fought. It was about the size of a large horse. Ty hopped off of Raikou's back onto the ground. His rage was written all over his face as he looked at the dead Oneirdectus. His eye fell on me and all of the anger in his face disappeared.
I waved casually at him.
He sprinted over to me.
"Sup," I said to him not moving from my spot on the ground.
He smiled down at me before talking.
"You should be resting in bed. Your leg needs time to heal", He scolded.
"Well, my leg is just fine."
"What?" Ty questioned. He bent down and looked at my leg. He gingerly touched my leg where the wound should have been.
He was confused at first as he stared at my leg. Then a smile formed on his lips as he looked up at me. He looked more amused than happy.
"What?," I asked.
"Of course you would be one."
"Be what?"
"You're an elemental rider." He said smiling at me.

Mortis Operandi 1- New Hire
Thank you for reading, I have to start with that. The feedback and encouragement from RoyalRoad users helped me finish my book. I left the unedited version up as I worked on editing and making it a little more polished. However the time has come for me to put it on Amazon and hopefully let other people read the story. If you have Kindle unlimited you should be able to read the story there. If you just want to order an ebook version you can do that as well. I should have a paperback version coming up. https://www.royalroad.com/amazon/B07T46B4NM Again thank you for reading and helping me on this journey. It hasn't ended however, my second book which I'm hoping to do well enough that reading the first isn't completely necessary, is still being worked on here, https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/24562/mortis-operandi-2--terms-and-conditions . Any feedback, comments, even critism is welcome as I work on giving you the best version of my story. I'll leave the first two chapters up here, unless Amazon says otherwise. There should be enough differences to avoid issues though. THANK YOU! Thank you! thank you! __________________________________ Adventurers enter dungeons every day. Battling evil monsters, defying dangerous terrain, triumphing over devious traps... ... but none of them ever ask why? That arrow trap, who reloads it? The pitfall trap, who cleans out the bodies and sharpens the spikes? What if the grates get clogged, where will the blood and gore drain? When you are trying to study ancient lore or plan on conquering a kingdom, you don't want to worry about all that. You just want peace. Mortis Operandi is a different kind of company. One that celebrates diversity. One that celebrates value in individuals. With flexible pay and plenty of advancement opportunities, it is a company that knows its workers are it's most valuable asset. As they design, build, and install traps, rooms, obstacles, and repair they are a one stop shop. When a possible recall sets events into motion, the company must pivot in a new paradigm of full circle Dungeon service. The Goblin Eft No-toes has a solution that entwines ex-adventurer Elric into the business of death. *Note the above statements are forward looking statements. In no way do they promote or suggest that Mortis Operandi will project greater sales or revenue. Understand that investing in a company does involve some risks, and possibly much rewards.

The Devil King
This story is a Frame Story (story within a story), and as such will contain two summaries to denote both. A man was summoned from his home world to another to serve as a Hero for the desperate Human race. Where, in between the worlds, he is tortured whist obtaining specialised abilities and a Class. However, just as he enters this new world, he is slain by way of dragon fire. Afterwards, his soul is picked up by a Goddess called Azazel and strikes a bargain with her. For a new life upon her world, he will give her entertainment. Unbeknownst to himself, she has more plans for him than simple “entertainment”. Ah, but the Universe has its own plans for the man who was summoned. Be it for good or for ill, the worlds will note the rise of something more. ***** Sarah, the Goddess of Iridescent Colours, is the Goddess Queen of the Terran Pantheon after marrying a being called the Ageless who is the God King of said Pantheon. However, after many a century of being together, and giving birth to their only child, she has come to suspect her husband of breaking the oldest laws set aside within the Universe. Tampering or re-writing a being's Story. Of which contains a being's everything; from birth to death, everything is written within their Story. Tampering with such books would not only mark the being, but cause the Librarians who take care of such items to fly into a rage and slay the perpetrator. However, with the Ageless being the fifth strongest being within the Universe, she doubts if she could find a Librarian strong enough to slay her husband for the crimes he has committed. How did she come to suspect him? Her own story contains many pages which were re-written, and the one who has access to it is both herself and her husband. Therefore, she searches for answers, and has been given the story titled The Devil King in order to find that which she desires. Even if the cost is to read the whole book before she could act fully. Special thanks to Hot-Gothics/Agelyn Starr for the cover art. If you would like to view the full artwork, click here. This can also be found on a website run by a good friend and fan of my work. One that I've both bought and given my blessing to run. https://terranlibrary.com/
