Chapter 385: Chapter 385: A New Journey
"So… you mean to say you're not planning to take anyone with you?"
After listening to Alaric's explanation, Hermione asked incredulously.
"Yes, don't worry, I'm just taking those three dragons with me," Alaric replied with an innocent expression.
"Before unifying the Seven Kingdoms of Westeros and rebuilding the Targaryen dynasty, Dany won't have the inclination to do anything else, and neither will the others.
So, it's basically just me going on an adventure in another world."
However, it became evident that Hermione's understanding of Alaric exceeded his expectations.
She posed a particularly tricky question. "Wait, are those three dragons male or female?"
Faced with this challenging inquiry, Alaric had to explain: "...Actually, the dragons in the Game of Thrones world are different from those in our world.
While they can lay eggs and produce offspring, they don't have gender distinctions. Each dragon can lay eggs independently..."
Nonetheless, Hermione was not satisfied with this answer and continued to look into his eyes.
Finally, under the girl's intense gaze, Alaric confessed the truth.
"Alright, I'll come clean. The fire they were bathed in at birth wasn't just any high temperature; it was from my Animagus—a flame from another world.
As a result, they mutated compared to their kin, one of which is having gender... In fact, they are all female dragons."
Then, he turned the tables and questioned Hermione.
"So what if they're female dragons? Why are you concerned about their gender? You're not thinking of something weird, are you?"
"Isn't that so?" Hermione replied, somewhat aggrieved. "Aren't you that kind of person? You couldn't even hold back while practicing your half-dragon transformation.
What wouldn't be difficult for you? With your magical ability, if you can turn people into dragons, you can surely turn dragons into humans, right?
And I've always thought you were a bit too close with Lurue; don't think I can't guess your intentions!"
Alaric: "…"
Seeing Alaric at a loss for words, Hermione's tone finally softened.
"Who would do something like that?" Alaric retorted angrily.
"Well, who knows…" Hermione mumbled.
Thus, the two bickered their way through the fireplace and returned home via the Floo Network.
In the following days, Alaric began preparing for his exploration of the new world while also trying to spend more time with his girlfriends.
The new world was far more dangerous than both the Game of Thrones world and the Harry Potter world, with a significantly higher level of magical energy.
One can imagine that due to the higher magical concentration, this world would surely harbor beings more powerful than in the previous two worlds, along with more advanced and complex magic.
Therefore, venturing into such a world would undoubtedly be a long-term undertaking.
Moreover, to avoid drawing attention from certain powerful beings, Alaric didn't plan to frequently travel back and forth between the new world.
As such, exploring the new world might take a considerable amount of time.
Before that, he wanted to fully enjoy the beautiful and leisurely daily life he had now.
This mindset led him to be rather dismissive when handling the new student welcome event at Hogwarts, resulting in one of the shortest opening term banquets in the school's history.
Although Alaric had always been indifferent to such trivial matters, being this dismissive was unprecedented, leaving many of his friends and acquaintances puzzled.
Even Dumbledore, who had retired several years ago and had long since let go of Hogwarts and the wizarding world's safety to the younger generation, enjoying his retirement without concerning himself with worldly affairs, sent him an inquiry letter due to this behavior.
However, could this possibly deter Alaric?
Starting the day after the new term began, Alaric no longer appeared at Hogwarts. Instead, he stayed at home, goofing around with the girls. After two days of this, he felt satisfied enough to enter the Game of Thrones world.
Needless to say, although the time he spent in the Game of Thrones world was but a fleeting moment compared to the Harry Potter world, he and the ladies of that world experienced a romantic time together.
Then, still in the depths of Hogwarts, in the Chamber of Secrets, Alaric appeared before the time gate with one golden dragon, one red dragon, and one green dragon.
At that moment in the Game of Thrones world, it had been a full five years since Alaric first entered, and the three dragons had now reached the age of five.
They had grown to a size of twenty to thirty meters. Without the Extension Charm, the chamber would not be able to contain their bodies.
For the dragons in the Harry Potter world, such enormous size was unimaginable. However, for dragons from other worlds, this size was merely the beginning.
One of the marvels of dragons is that, as they age, their size increases infinitely.
In the Game of Thrones world, the largest dragon on record was Balerion the Black Dread, which lived to be 220 years old.
Upon its death, its length reached nearly two hundred meters, surpassing the size of Smaug from Middle-earth in The Lord of the Rings and rivaling Deathwing from World of Warcraft.
Alaric believed that in the world he was about to visit, these three sisters would experience substantial growth.
Because the world he was heading to was none other than World of Warcraft.
In this world, there exist semi-divine beings known as the Dragon Aspects. They were granted powers by the Titans to protect their planet, Azeroth.
Not only do these Dragon Aspects possess size far surpassing their kind, but they also have considerable intelligence and magical abilities.
Nearly every adult dragon has the ability to assume human forms, such as those of humans, elves, or night elves.
Alaric looked forward to his three dragons achieving significant growth in this world.
In fact, he even planned more for these three dragons, utilizing his ability to choose the timeline in which he entered the world.
For the three female dragons, Alaric was not only the one who gave them half their life but also their nurturer and teacher, bestowing them with human-like wisdom.
If Dany was their mother, then Alaric's status was equivalent to that of a father.
This close relationship instilled in them unconditional trust toward Alaric, which was the foundation for his plan.
Thus, under the watchful eyes of the girls, Alaric tightly gripped his wand feeling the resonance with the time gate before him (as the materials for his wand all originated from the World of Warcraft dimension), leading the three dragons through the time gate, stepping onto a new journey.
