The dragon's harem

Two days passed quickly, and Arad was walking back to the university from the dorm with Matilda and Selina. They talked about their latest collaboration with the holy class to synthesize medicine, but their conversation was cut short.

Arad stooped in place, seeing a group of teachers and students gathered at the university's entrance.

"I smell food." Matilda said with a smile, but Arad grabbed her by the head. "Keep your claws down, it's alive."

They walked into the crowd and Arad started pushing people aside to get through. Strangely enough, the girls were the hardest to shove; they were sticking to him like glue.

In the middle of the gathering, two teachers stared at a beaver who growled at them, waving his little arms in panic.

"Where are the druids? Can't they hurry?" One of the teachers looked back, he was a large man with short and curly red hair and a long beard made into braids.

"Get this thing out of the way. It might bite someone." The other teacher looked back, she was a thinking woman with a sleepy tired face, and the teacher of the political class, the one Tempo was in.

Arad touched their shoulders from the back. "Move, I want to see him."

The redhead teacher glared back at him. "How many times do we need to tell you students to get back?"

"I've asked." Arad shoved him aside as if he was a foam statue. Despite him being the teacher of the wrestling class, he had no way of overpowering Arad who was built like a freight train.

When Arad's eyes turned toward the other teacher, she quickly took a few steps back. "I'm not in your way…" She said with a worried face. Unlike the bird brain teacher beside her, she remembered how Arad wiped the floor with the two monsters in the entrance exam and how close he was to Tempo. As a politician, she knew that he had more power at his hand than anyone could know. She might not know who Arad is or what is his relationship with Tempo, but she at least expects him to be a titan thanks to his size.

Arad squatted down and stared at the beaver, "What do you want? It's dangerous for you to chere."

"Dangerous? Not!" The beaver waved his arms. "Beaverdom in more danger, the humans, they tried to open the great beaver hole."

"What?" Arad could barely understand what the little guy was talking about. Except that it could be the human's fault.

"Shiny things, humans want shiny things. They dug the beaver hole, the dam of the beaver's ancestors. They'll release the beaver eater, we'll all die."

"I see."

"Alligators are standing guard, and the swamp's mistress is asleep…beavers die without help." The beaver wiggled around, tapping his large tail on the ground.

The redhead teacher growled, "You can speak with animals?"

"He was registered as a druid." The other teacher replied to him.

Half of the students gasped, and Matilda was the one to speak first. "He's a druid?!"

"ARON!" Lucia crushing in, "What's going on?"

Arad looked at her. "Shumans dug a dam that the beavers build, and the flood might destroy the swamp, I doubt Croc City would go unharmed." He replied, lifting the beaver and setting him on his shoulder. "He chere seeking druids to help preserve nature. I'll be going with him."

"Wait! But you have classes; let the druids deal with it." She started panting; she wasn't that athletic but had run all the way down here.

"ARON!" Another voice screamed from behind the crowd, but this was recognizable as hell. The students all moved out of the way as his red hair burned in front of them. Tempo, the price of the volcanic titans walked toward Arad.

"AND! MISTER BEAVER!" Tempo extended his hand to the beaver, "NICE TO MEET YOU!"

The beaver stared at Tempo's hand, even more confused. He did eventually grab it, but not after an awkward wait.

"ARE YOU THE BEAVER KING? CAN WE ASSIST YOU WITH SOMETHING?" Tempo shouted and his teacher rubbed her ears. "Please stop screaming every word."

"SORRY!" He shouted again.

Arad quickly explained the situation to Tempo and he was intrigued. "I SEE!" He turned toward the beaver. "I'LL HELP!"

"I doubt that's a good use of your time. Is it?" The redhead teacher stared at him. "Your classes are more important. You're studying human society and politics, aren't you?"

Tempo slowly turned toward him with a large smile. "IT'S THE SAME!"

A fire burned in Tempo's eyes. "THIS BEAVER AND HUMANS! THEY ARE THE STO US!"

This made the teacher and the other students realize where they stood. To the Titans who were thousands of meters tall with enough power to contend with dragons, they could barely tell the difference between humans and beavers.

Arad smiled. "I probably won't need your help to fix this."

"WHAT MATTERS IS PARTICIPATING!" Tempo looked at the beaver and bowed gently, "PLEASE ALLOW US TO HELP YOU PEOPLE AS WELL! I WANT TO BE A KING THAT IN GOOD RELATION WITH EVERYONE!"

Nobody knew if it was enthusiasm or just a trait, but his screams were getting painful to hear. But it was in fact, both enthusiasm and that his polymorph is barely able to lower his voice to this level.

"Fine." Arad sighed. "Let's go, I'll carry you to there."

"NO!" Tempo lifted his hand. "I'LL RUN TO THERE."

Tempo knew that it was generally rude to ask a dragon to give you a ride, and what he was taught is that when dealing with them, if they asked to give you a ride. It's considered a good manner to say no. When someone asks to spend the night in their house after you visit them, most of the time, you should refuse such an offer, as it's just a custom, they aren't expecting you to say yes.

Arad shifted into a large eagle, and everyone gasped. "He's really a druid!" Matilda gasped.

"I'll carry the beaver as he can't run to the swamp. Don't get stuck in the mud." He grabbed the beaver with his claws and flew away at a blinding speed.

"He speaks and he's fast!" Matilda could barely believe her eyes, seeing Arad disappear into the horizon.

Lucia blinked twice, she was the only one who wasn't surprised. She knew how fast Arad could go since the tshe saw it in the class, but was trying to make herself believe he just didn't want to harm the beaver.

"WELL THEN! I'M GOING!" Tempo pulled his sword out and sat it on his shoulder, he took a deep breath and the veins on his neck, arms, and legs bulged out. "SEE YOU LATER!"

With an explosion, he ran forward like a meteor, leaving a burning trail as he disappeared in the blink of an eye. The flhe left on the ground immediately faded out, only leaving a char.

Anansi, the spider they fought in the dungeon watched from the classroom as she looked out of the window. "A void dragon and a titan prince going to help a mere beaver. Isn't that an overkill?" She sighed and looked back at Maria, the witch she worked with and now is hiding as Aella's class teacher.

"I doubt that." Maria shook her head, "I smell a dreaded magic from the swamps. Whatever those humans dug out, it's something that should've stayed sealed. What worriesis that they both lack the gentle touch of a wizard or a witch. I doubt they'll be able to seal it back again."

"The beavers done, a dragon and a titan should be able to with ease." Anansi stared at her with a worried face.

"I doubt it was a beaver who did it. Probably a powerful druid that was Shapeshifting into a beaver done it." She sat on a table and put one leg on another, "Where do you beast men cfrom? The original ones were descendants of the Rakshasa, but when their numbers dwindled, you can guess where druids cinto play."

"I don't want to understand that." She sighed… "But…I guess I'm the same. A spider seeking a druid's love." She giggled.

"You'll get your way when we capture him. I doubt you'll catch a dragon's eyes at your power level, and even if you could do so, he'll never forget what happened in the dungeon, Aella is his wife." Maria stood and approached Anansi.

"Keep grinding, we'll get there eventually." She whispered into her ear. "And you aren't allowed to eat him after you made it, keep that in mind, you black widow spider."

Maria turned around and exited the class, leaving Anansi alone to think.

Arad landed in the swamp with the beaver, "We're far enough, let's wait for Tempo before we go further."

"That loud human?" The beaver stared at Arad, tilting his head.

"Yeah, I wonder how long it'll take him…" Arad turned around, but Tempo suddenly appeared with a burst, leaving a trail of fire behind him. "AM I LATE!?!" He shouted with a large enthusiastic smile.
