-Awww how cute-
-Does she bite? I want to pet her-
A couple of girls were talking excitedly with the owner of the wyvern
-Haha don't worry, my dear Buttercream is a dragon but she would never bite a lady as pretty as you-
The owner of the wyvern said while combing his short silver blonde hair.

-Mmh? Who would have thought, the clan of dragon riders still exists, I haven't seen one of them in years-
Hollyberry mentioned when seeing the rider.
-Pff-kahaha Dragon? Do they call that thing a dragon? A wyvern issn't even closse to be a dragon-
Pitaya mocked loudly so Wildberry nudged them to stay quiet.
-Well, it doesn't matter, it's still early so let's eat before going to get the supplies-
Hollyberry said before starting to walk, Wildberry followed her but Pitaya waited for them to go a little further away to scare the wyvern.
-HARGH-
Although Pitaya tried to speak as quietly as possible, the strength of the dragon tongue made the wyvern listen to them.

-Ekkk!-
Buttercream began to flap her wings as if she wanted to fly away but stayed on the ground and tried to hide behind her owner.
-Ahk! Buttercream, what's wrong?
-Oh, Royal Margarine! What's wrong with your dragon?
One of the girls asked, holding onto her friend's arm.
-She was probably scared by a sound, dragons have more developed hearing than us hehe-
The owner of the false dragon said a little nervously.
-Butter, dear, what's wrong? This is not the time for games-
He said quietly, petting Buttercream to calm her down.
-Ahem, if you'll excuse us ladies, it seems that my dear Buttercream needs to rest, so much attention tires her-
The blond dashed his hide away from the ladies.

Wildberry noticed Pitaya's absence and quickly returned for them to avoid problems, while the dragon continued making fun of the wyvern and its owner, Wildberry took advantage and took them by the arm to pull them back to the queen.
-Ahg! Let me go-
-You two, what did I tell you about not attracting attention?-
Hollyberry said, annoyed.
-Don't worry, the “dragon” rider and hiss wyvern drew more attention than us hahaha-
Pitaya said in a mocking tone.

After scolding Pitaya again, the three went to the inn where they would sleep.
And to Wildberry's surprise, Hollyberry had known the owner for years, after a while of the two women talking, they were finally able to sit down to eat.
-Why did the owner call you Sweet Pinkyberry?-
Wildberry asked towards Hollyberry with his usual serious tone.
-Ah, it's been years since anyone called me that, it was my nickname when I hunted monsters, pretty good right?-
Hollyberry spoke in a low voice so that no one would hear them, although she knew that Pitaya could hear them.
-It's...Princess's real name-
Mentioned Wildberry as serious as ever.
-Oh yes, it wasn't on purpose by the way, Jungleberry named her that, you should have seen my face when they told me that name, that's why I told them to start calling her Princess, luckily she liked that name better and no one calls her by that name anymore-
The queen explained with a smile but Wildberry continued looking at her with his usual expression.

-It's good that you asked me, you two will have to call me that while we are here, understand?-
The queen said seriously.
-Yes, Sweet…Pinkyberry-
Wildberry said with a little difficulty.
-Pitaya, did you hear me?-
Hollyberry turned to the aforementioned.
-Yeah, whatever you ssay berry-
The dragon said, leaning back in the chair to be more comfortable.
-Mmh, well, that also works-
Before they could continue talking their food arrived on the table.
-Three dragon head stews-
-And three drinks of fire breath-
Said the twins who were serving, leaving the food and jars on the table.
-Thank you-
The three said at the same time, Hollyberry took her jar and drank it in one go.

-Mmh, doess it really have a dragon head? Becoming a cannibal wasss not part of the plan to recover my energy-
Pitaya mentioned being a little disgusted while stirring the stew with the spoon.
-Don't worry, it's just a name, no one would put dragon meat in a simple soup-
Hollyberry didn't even finish explaining when Pitaya had already taken a bite.
-Mmph! It tasstes deliciouss! I wouldn't mind if it had dragon meat-
The dragon said happily to continue eating.
