"So you mean to say… you have some sort of inherited knowledge now?" looking incredulously at the beauty sitting just right beside him, the upbeat young man, Diluc, asked with a hint of disbelief in his tone, the fact that Yggdrasil just dropped on him becoming more acceptable to him with time as he remembers what kind of being she truly is.
"Mhm, when I acquired my human form, I just suddenly got a lot of information in my head" Yggdrasil replies as she leans her head on the upbeat young man's shoulders, prompting the young man to move his arms and circle it around her shoulders.
Hearing this explanation on how she managed to learn all sorts of words and terms that he didn't really teach her about, the upbeat young man still couldn't figure out just where she picks up the way she addresses him sometimes, but then again, opting just not to find it out as this is just a minor issue, he decided to just put it on the back of his mind.
As he did it though, the beauty herself seems to be way too eager for him to ask that specific question, causing her next words to be quite teasing as she call him that word once again.
"Aren't you curious why I call you daddy?" saying as if there's nothing wrong with her words, the giant wood dragon turns heavenly beauty asks towards the young man beside her with a knowing look on her beautiful face, her words causing the young man to clear his throat as he replies to her.
"That… we can talk about that for another day" he replied helplessly as he feels quite defeated, never expecting that a dragon as young as her will become someone he can't even deal with whenever they talk, often catching him off guard with her provocative words.
"Fine… I'm going to return back to the Draconic Realm, the mana here is quite rotten, would you mind letting me in?" after clinging on him for quite a while, the neon green haired beauty said as she stood up and let go of him, looking at him with gentle eyes as she asks her question, the upbeat young man merely nodding before he waves his hand and open the entrance of the Draconic Realm for her.
"You're not going to return with me?" looking at the young man who remains on his spot even when she's already moving towards their home, the beauty asks in wonder prompting the upbeat young man to smile at her before he replies.
"I'll stay outside for a while, I need to go back to the city and buy you clothes, and there are other things that I need to do as well" still thinking about joining that academy, especially with his new mission going on, the upbeat young man replies causing the beauty to sulk a bit, only being comforted as the young man rushes towards her and hugs her from the back, the warmth of his body causing her to feel comfortable that she closes her eyes.
"Fine, do what you want then…" she said in defeat as she just couldn't allow herself to hinder him, her liege and now man, on what he is going to do, especially since she knows just how much the will of the Ruler of the Draconic Realm matters to his subject like her.
"… Also, from now on, stop treating me like your child!! I'm your woman now, and if you feel weird about having relation with someone young, I'll have to remind you that I have thousands of years of experience in my mind now!!!" she reminded him before pecking on his cheeks again, eventually escaping from his grasp as she moves towards the portal, taking one last look at him and waving away as if they are parting for a long time despite her knowing that he's definitely going to be in the Draconic Realm just a few hours or so from now.
Looking at the closing portal that just engulfs Yggdrasil, this goddess like beauty that just suddenly falls into his lap, the upbeat young man couldn't help but feel like his life is about to get better and better from this point forward, a fact that just makes him want to hum a tune to himself.
"Come to think of it, how in the hell did she even has that body when she's just that old?" muttering to himself, the upbeat young man couldn't help but get surprised as the Dragon Herding System seems to have an answer for his question, a gray floating screen appearing in front of him the moment that he finished his words.
[When compared to humans, dragons grow into the adolescent, and even the adulthood phase in a pretty fast pace, especially when there's enough nourishment for them to absorb, they can go from hatchlings into a fully grown dragon in just a matter of months]
"So that means even though it's just more than a week since she hatched out of her egg…" as the young man starts muttering to himself once again, the Dragon Herding System already changes the words on the screen as if to confirm his thoughts.
[The Wood Dragon Yggdrasil already has a physique comparable to a mid to late twenties human female when compared to humans]
"Damn…" he just mutters in silence, the screen of the system remaining there despite not showing anything else, as if also sharing the same sentiment as him who suddenly got a dragon for a wife.
[As an additional information, all dragons tend to get attracted to someone with a greater draconic bloodline than themselves, and you, as the Ruler of the Draconic Realm as the highest quality of draconic blood above everyone and everything else]
"What!? But I am human" he retorted as he never felt anything like this, having a draconic blood or something in his body, making him wonder whether the system is really telling the truth.
[You are, for now. In notion of that reminder, you are warned that most, if not all of the ladies who has draconic parts in their blood will definitely get attracted to you, and the more blessing you get from the dragons of the Draconic Realm, the greater that effect will be]
'I think… I might have a problem' thinking of the upcoming metal dragon that he received as a reward from the mission, the upbeat young man couldn't help but feel like he's about to enter an extremely dangerous grounds now, something that might suck him completely dry if he doesn't tread around it carefully.

On top of a giant floating rock located in the middle of nowhere, multiple people are gathering as if discussing about something important, said people around a simple rectangular table more fitting for a feast than anything else, however, if there's something they are feasting on right now, it is definitely the tons of papers just sitting on top of the table.
"Goddamnit, why do we have to check all of the applicant's background information just because of a trifling threat like that?" one of the people running through all of the papers near him complains, getting a load of agreeing nod from the other people in the room, said agreement not even helping him from avoiding the scolding of the lady also reading the papers just beside him.
"If you're going to complain like that, why don't you just clean-up the entire Jester Court instead? Oh that's right, because you don't have enough power to deal with them, and you can't, so just shut your mouth and try to find something that can lead us to the spies they sent inside the academy" the lady said with an annoyed look on her face as she scolds the man beside her, the people around the two of them looking in pity towards the young man, especially the ones in the same age range as him, taking pity in this poor soul who landed himself as a husband of this beautiful, yet extremely sharp-mouthed woman.
"But…" the man, wanting to retort as he thinks that there's really a good reason for his complaint, start speaking once again, only to be stopped by the lady as she glares at him like an annoyed owner of an animal, the man refusing to back down from this taunting gaze as he glares back at the lady as well, who doesn't even seem to treat him as her husband.
"Alright alright, stop fighting now everyone, we can finish this job far easier if we work in silence~" disrupting the escalating situation between the two, another voice joined the conversation, this one surprising everyone as it sounds extremely melodious and serene, like the warm summer winds gently wrapping everyone around the great feeling, making it all the more surprising when they think about the figure from where the mature, confident and authoritative voice comes from.
