Chapter 023: Dragon Matriarch
================================

One of the guards felt it was ridiculous, "Princess, is he a Terran? I can't smell the blood of a dragon in him!" At the word of a Terran, even the Captain shot a fiery glance at Siva.

"He is Terran." He calmly said, narrowing his eyes.

Flashes of light sparkled and the lightning domains expanded to cover every direction Siva will go to.

"Princess, why is he with you?" asked the Captain.

This smartness of being able to see that there was no hostility between Siva and their Princess means that for some reason, this Terran isn't an enemy.

Adding her words just now, something wasn't right in their relationship. Why does it look like she was defending him and siding on him instead of us, her own people?

"He—"

Before she could explain it, another flash of light came from the fortress and in a matter of seconds that flash of light became a person —a woman that was no less prettier and older-looking than Electra.

One look, she could be said to be an older version of Electra... and on another, she was like a future self of what Electra would look like if she matured.

And yet, charm-wise, the new arrival was actually more beautiful than her. There was something that made this newly arrived 'future Electra' more eye-catching than the younger version.

Siva couldn't help but think she may be the young sister... but something was odd... could she be...?

"Electra!" shouted the woman.

"Mom!" Electra cried as the woman flashed in front of her and hugged the woman tightly.

"Where have you gone off to? Why did you go out so suddenly like that?!!"

"Mom, I'm sorry I... I have to go... I... needed to..."

"Ssshh.... it's okay, it's okay. You're home now. It doesn't matter. You can just tell me where you've been to later when we talk." At this point, the other woman which is surprisingly Electra's mother —not her sister— looked at Siva with slight hostility, "My daughter have made trouble for you, Terran, but I am sure that there is a reason why you've come in our homeland with no hostility and is instead being in front of my daughter and not behind her."

Hearing this, the guards felt that this was indeed the case when they saw him earlier and now that they think about it, it was indeed quite offending to them that a mere Terran would travel in front of the Princess as if he was superior to her.

Immediately, they prepared to lunge at him but at the next instant, Electra came forth and stopped them from taking a single step forward.

"Stand down! That's an order!"

"But Princess!" spoke the same guard.

"I said stand down. Don't throw your life away! You cannot win against him."

Even her mother was shocked and the captain was even surprised, yet again. This is the second time she had spoken in behalf of this Terran.

"Who are you, Terran?" asked her mother. "I'm the Matriarch of the Lightning Dragon Tribe. I'm called Mohindra. What are you called?"

"Siva." he said. Nothing more. It's not that Siva was unable to add anything. It's just that he can't add a more suitable description since his mind is split into two right now.
