The Kingmaker System

Sol sat quietly in his seat while Cesio placed the plate of strawberry and chocolate short cakes in front of them.

"I didn’t know what you would like and I got to know that these are pretty popular sweets in town." Cesio said, "If you don’t like them then-"

"It’s fine," Ocean spoke before he picked up both the short cakes and placed them before Sol.

Sol looked at him for a moment before he picked up the fork and started eating. Ocean observed him before sneaking away the slice of strawberry on the short cakes making Sol stare at him. Ocean simply smiled before he looked at Cesio.

"So, how are you doing these days, Cesio?"

Cesio smiled, "I’m well in health by your grace, Lord Dragon."

Ocean smiled. They started talking while Sol finished the cakes and then hopped off his chair walking towards the large statue in the hall.

Ocean glanced at him once before he turned back to Cesio.

Sol stared at the face of the Saintess which was carved quite rather precision here unlike the Saintess’ face from the outer hall. That statue only had the edge of the nose along with the full lips and a faint jawline visible. But this Saintess was clear, her face, her features were carved as if one had seen the Saintess in front of them and even the Dragon was of a different kind. While the Dragon outside seemed with rather smooth features, this one had morw choppy looking body, as if it didn’t have a solid body but a form of flowy form which enveloped the praying maiden.

He could see that both the Saintesses and the Dragons from outside and here were different.

Sol couldn’t help but ask, "Who is this?"

Cesio turned his head and smiled before making his way to Sol, "This is Saintess Miella and the water Dragon who saved our Denril four years ago from a demon."
