Chapter 257: Quick Learner
At Haven Forest
It was another morning where the weather started to chill the surrounding area with the arrival of winter. In a few more days, snow would start to fall. Despite the cold, training sessions continued for the dragons and their riders under Master Kasper’s guidance.
Kasper was an expert, having trained dragons and riders in the past. His vast experience made him invaluable. Asura stood tall in the training grounds with her dragon, Snow, by her side. She looked at Kasper filled with admiration. Despite his youthful appearance, Kasper held the knowledge of an ancient man.
Meanwhile, Cora, Levi, and Luis, with their respective dragons, were in position as they waited for Master Kasper’s guidance.
"Alright, today we’re going to work on aerial maneuvers and synchronization," Kasper announced, his voice carrying a blend of authority and warmth. "Cora, Levi, Luis—each of your dragons has unique strengths, and they are now ready for you to mount them. Let’s focus on those today. Your bonds with your dragons will make this easier."
Cora nodded eagerly, her dragon Aurum snorting small puffs of flame in agreement. Luis, with his dragon Jade, gave a determined nod, their attention fixed on Kasper. Kasper handed them spells to chant, enabling them to see through their dragons’ eyes.
Asura took notes, though Kasper reminded them that their dragons had impeccable memories and could serve as reminders if they forgot any spells.
Kasper mounted Onyx to demonstrate how to ride a dragon. Onyx only allowed Kasper on his back because his dragonrider, Katelina, had authorized it. Without her permission, there was no way Onyx would follow Kasper’s instructions or cooperate.
"Watch closely," Kasper called out, settling into the saddle. "The key is to establish trust and communicate through subtle movements."
