"Hurry all of you! If they release the Qilin or commit a mistake, they might take the whole mountain with them. Or worse, they could kill the Qilin while we are away. I cannot tell you the disappointment that my brother will feel if he knows of this incompetence." Lan commanded as the soldiers pushed on.
The members of the House of the Azure Dragon reached where the Qilin previously, but they are shocked. The area where the Qilin resided is now inhabited by something different. A black stone the size of a human with lightning coursing through its clear-cut body could be seen floating with chains binding it from floating to the clouds.
"Where is the Qilin! Peridot, that bitch!" Lan cursed as the people they are searching for are no longer in the area.
=====
"If that is considered as a large lightning magic stone then we have done what we needed to do." Adrian stated as all he needed to do is escape with his members."Teleport us out of here then. We cannot go back down the mountain as they will surely be waiting for us to show up. They are probably on their way to this very location as they do not want us to get the Qilin." Peridot stated but Adrian made a face that is all too familiar to her.
"You cannot conjure up any spells, can you?" Peridot asked.
"I cannot as my magic circuits are injured. We cannot escape even though I already have a created a perfect transportation spell for us." Adrian stated as he could not activate magic for a day.
"If you cannot get us out of here then all we can do is fight our way out." Peridot stated as she only sees that as their only option.
"Do not worry, Mistress. I will definitely send you back home in one piece." Saru stated.
"Why do you need to take the difficult approach when I can propose another solution." The Qilin suddenly spoke.
"What do you suggest?" Peridot asked as she is now out of ideas.I could just lead you out of this mountain. Every natural lightning in the world is at my control. You would never be harmed by this mountain's lightning as long as I lead the way. Although, I will only permit my master to be the one that I carry." The Qilin stated as it does not want to carry any other person aside from Peridot.
"That is fine. Kanlaon transform back into your true form." Adrian commanded as the child beside him suddenly did a small dance and a dragon that is bigger than the Qilin appeared.
"Lead the way." Adrian stated as he told the Qilin to lead the way, but the latter is more impressed at Adrian for being able to tame a dragon.
"Hop on now, Missy." The Qilin stated as it bent down for Peridot to climb on its back.
The Qilin then started to 'walk' in air as the flames on its body flickered in the air. The flames did not even hurt Peridot which meant that she is really the master of the Qilin. Saru followed behind them using his Nimbus Cloud while Adrian with Kanlaon followed right after.
The group disappeared into the stormy sea of storm clouds. Like the Qilin said, the lightning bolts did not even dare try and attack them when it is in the Qilins presence. It is definitely a grand beast that can control the element of lightning and fire masterfully.
"I see. You fly differently like us Ryujin as the air bends to your will due to your mastery of the lightning element. You use the fire element in order to boost your 'flight speed'." Peridot commented as she obsevred the elements fluttering about beside the Qilin.
"Impressive. To be this perceptive despite being of young age. Her being a Ryujin might be a reason for the gift, but one must be born with incredible elemental sense to even perceive how I fly." The Qilin thought as it suddenly became intrigued and impressed by Peridot.
In truth, if the Qilin wanted to choose a master then he wanted the demon to be his master, but it could sense that its current master is also someone special. Even for the Ryujin, the ability to control all the elements is rare as the Qilin only knows one who is capable of such feat.
They call her the Dragon Lady as she is a mysterious Ryujin of unknown origins that rose to power with her masterful control of the elements. The fact that she could wield any element of her choosing already made her formidable but her ability to fuse two elements together is the most praiseworthy of all.
"Missy, is your master the so-called Dragon Lady?" The Qilin asked as she bears resemblance to how the Dragon lady utilizes her abilities.
"I do not know but I have heard that they refer to my master as that." Peridot replied.
"If that is the case then you are qualified to be my master. Just make sure that I can roam the world as much as I please." The Qilin stated as it wanted freedom and adventure the most.
"If that is the thing you want then you came to the right crew. Not only roam the world but we could also explore other worlds as long as that guy needs our help. Or we could find a pocket dimension just hidden somewhere.
A lot of people have been seeing pocket dimensions appear, but the demons usually close them immediately. Did you know that Equinox?" Peridot stated.
"I know. I am still a demon despite me being an adventurer. I am not doing guard duty at the moment as I need to become stronger. That is what the elders told me. But if you do find a pocket dimension, it might be better to contact me first. It might suddenly close up on you if you are not careful because some pocket dimensions are fragile."
