The Golden Throne

Liu Feng looked at Amelia, who had fainted at the side due to exhaustion. She had fell upon his hands. He looked at her softly.

"She is just a kid. Pity that she has to see all of this so young.", he shook his head.

"You are a kid too.", Arad reminded Liu Feng. To this, Liu Feng chuckled and shook his head. "My circumstances have forced me to mature early. Far too early."

"What circumstances?", Arad asked as the two began moving towards the railway station at a very high speed.

Then, Liu Feng stopped. All of a sudden, he realized something and said, "The train will be slow. We need a faster way to move. I cannot use up all of my mana. If we are up against demons, it is better to keep my mana reserve. Damn it, if only I had that here.", he cursed out.

Arad also stopped. "What about it I transform? I will be much quicker, and I am sure that I can get there in a few minutes."

"Can you change to your true form? Why didn't you tell me that earlier?"

"Not here, master. This place is too close to the magic forest. We must run for five minutes."

"Again with the magical forest. What the hell is wrong with you. It is one thing if this was thousands of years ago, but the situation right now is nothing to scoff at.", he spat out. Arad just shrugged.

Liu Feng nodded, and he picked up Amelia in his arms. He rushed towards the exit along with Arad.

"Master, you are too slow. Use mana on your legs. Just a little cannot hurt. You can recover it back on the journey there.", Arad suggested.

"You think I don't know that? I used it all up for a sonic boom so that I could get to Amelia faster. The plan was to recover in the train, and then prepare for the fight. I failed to account for how long the defences could hold. The phoenix is not exactly running at full capacity, and there are three kings over there whom I totally forgot about. What should I do about them, huh?", Liu Feng shook his head.

"I see. I mean to use any elemental mana that you have on your legs. Dragons have found that any type of mana can be used on any spell, but there will just be less efficient when used with different attribute spells. You can just target all the mana around you to help you out.", Arad pointed out.

Liu Feng felt a light bulb ring up in his head. "Then that means that I can do-"

"We must move fast, master."

Liu Feng nodded, and he used up all the water and earth mana that he had on his legs and he burst forward just like before, and he almost reached the same speed as Arad was, but he was clearly wasting a lot of mana to achieve this speed. He felt his mana core emptying visibly. He felt his throat getting dryer and his legs felt heavier than stone.

"Must be a side effect for doing something like this. This is a dragon thing after all. Humans do not have a physical body as powerful as those of dragons.", Liu Feng shook his head as he continued to run, gritting his teeth to stall the pain.

After a few minutes, they were far into the road that went from Dilheim to the Magic Academy. They were right next to the train track, which allowed them to keep direction.

Arad stopped and said, "Master, I will be transforming into my original form now. We have been wasting too much time running."

Arad flew into the sky, and Liu Feng could feel a burst of fire mana raining from the sky. Slowly, a huge shadow descended. He fell back because of the immense power that he felt. Amelia, who was in his hands, almost fell down. Liu Feng quickly gripped her tight, and he looked back at Arad's true form.

The dragon was just like the books on earth described. It had scales, looked majestic, and Arad was pitch black. Liu Feng looked at him and just felt a series of indescribable emotions.

"Please get on master. We could be running out of time."

"Yes, let's go. I hope that they held up till now. I really don't want this war to finish before it even started. How shameless, sneak attacking on us like this.", Liu Feng rambled as he jumped forward.

Arad went silent for a minute and said, "Let us go. We can't afford to let Dilheim, literally the base of all your actions, to get corrupted completely."

Liu Feng nodded, and he got on top of Arad with Amelia on his lap. Arad started flapping his wings, and in mere moments, Liu Feng saw himself along with the clouds. It was night time, but the moonlight gave the clouds a blue tint that looked beautiful. He unconsciously stroked Amelia, and she opened her eyes. She saw Liu Feng and got up.

"What happened to the people who were chasing me? Where are Aaaagh! What are we doing in the air?"

Liu Feng smiled and said, "Relax. We are on a dragon. Look, this is Arad. Now, we have to go to Dilheim, so just gather your mana. I will as well. There could be a fight coming, so you have to stay inside the mage tower. It is probably the safest place in the world right now."

"A dragon?", she stuttered. A dragon was a mystical creature, and the thought that they were riding one was one that Amelia couldn't comprehend.

Amelia said, "Where will you be? I want to fight as well."

"Be sensible. You are their target. They will just kidnap you and run away. You fighting is more of a disadvantage than an advantage for us."

Amelia pouted, and she sat down and started meditating. So did Liu Feng.

A few minutes later, Arad said, "We are here, master."
