"Thank you," Cyrille whispered, her voice filled with gratitude and determination. "I don't want anyone else to suffer like we did."

    As Luna approached the slumbering dragon, she gently tapped it on the nose with her umbrella. The dragon stirred and opened its eyes, revealing shimmering golden irises. It regarded Luna with a mix of curiosity and annoyance. "Excuse me, mighty dragon," Luna began, her voice filled with a soothing tone. "We have come seeking your assistance. The people of the water country are in need, and we require your golden treasures to help rebuild and ensure their prosperity." The dragon blinked, contemplating Luna's words. It was accustomed to its hoard being a source of pride and protection, but the notion of aiding others resonated within its ancient heart. After a moment of silence, the dragon spoke in a deep, rumbling voice. "You seek my treasures to aid the water country?" it asked, its gaze shifting to the rest of Axel's group. Axel stepped forward, his voice steady and determined. "Yes, noble dragon. With your assistance, we can bring hope and prosperity back to the land. The people

    As Luna revealed the dragon's true identity, the mighty creature transformed before their eyes. The large, fearsome dragon shrank in size until it took on a more humanoid form, revealing an elegant woman with emerald-green hair and scales adorning her arms and legs. "I apologize for the misunderstanding," the dragon-turned-woman spoke, her voice now gentle and melodic. "I am Seraphina, the guardian of this dragon's lair." Axel and Evelyn stood in awe, their previous battle instincts replaced with curiosity. Seraphina approached Luna, her eyes filled with both admiration and amusement. "You have a keen eye, little one. Not many can discern the true nature of dragons. You are wise beyond your appearance," Seraphina complimented Luna. Luna blushed and brushed off the praise. "Oh, it was just a lucky guess." Seraphina smiled warmly. "Luck or not, you have proven yourself worthy of my respect. You possess a unique power, one that can see beyond the surface." Axel, still recovering fro

    After days of searching, they finally reached the secluded cabin where Commander Gareth resided. Axel knocked on the door, and a middle-aged man with a stern expression answered. It was clear that time had etched lines of experience and weariness on his face. "I am Axel Maverick, and I've come to request your aid, Commander Gareth," Axel spoke with respect, acknowledging the man's past accomplishments. Gareth studied Axel and his companions, his gaze lingering on Ellie, who he assumed was just a young girl. "What makes you think I would join your cause?" Axel explained their mission, the plight of the water country, and their determination to reclaim its glory. He spoke of the training they needed and how Gareth's expertise would be invaluable. Gareth listened intently, his eyes softening as he absorbed their words. "I see... I had lost faith in the crown, but your conviction has sparked a glimmer of hope within me."

Without hesitation, they rushed towards the house, their hearts pounding with a mix of fear and urgency. As they approached, they saw the once serene scene transformed into chaos. Flames licked the walls, devouring the wooden structure and sending plumes of smoke into the sky. The man and his daughter who had been playing outside now stood frozen in shock, their expressions a mix of fear and despair. "We have to save them!" Luna exclaimed, her voice filled with determination. Axel nodded, his eyes scanning the surroundings for any signs of danger. With the help of his water magic, he created a protective barrier around himself and his companions, shielding them from the scorching heat and smoke.

He understood their concerns and hesitations about the new business venture, especially considering their individual tastes and preferences. However, he remained determined to explore this uncharted territory and test the waters with their fry business idea. "Well, let's give it a try," Axel finally responded, breaking the brief silence. "We can start by experimenting with different recipes and flavors to cater to a wide range of palates. We'll make sure to have options that appeal to both vegetable lovers and those who prefer a more meaty indulgence." Evelyn raised an eyebrow, her curiosity piqued. "You seem quite confident about this, Axel. What makes you so certain?" Axel smiled, his eyes gleaming with a mix of determination and excitement.

    Axel listened to his companions' concerns and considered their perspectives. He understood their reservations about engaging in a potentially exploitative business like slave trading. Their words reminded him of the importance of maintaining their moral compass and staying true to their values. "You're right," Axel acknowledged, his voice filled with determination. "I don't want to compromise our principles. We started this journey to fight against oppression, not to perpetuate it. We will not engage in slave trading or any other unethical practices." Ellie nodded in agreement, her expression serious. "I'm glad you see it that way, Axel. We can find another way to generate income and support our cause. We have the skills and resources to make a difference without resorting to immoral means." Evelyn chimed in, her tone filled with conviction. "I believe in our abilities to create a successful business that aligns with our values. Let's focus on offering quality food and exceptional s

    Axel took a sip of his tea, savoring the familiar warmth that comforted him amidst the bustling atmosphere of the café. He looked at his companions, each with their unique quirks and abilities, and contemplated their next steps. "You're right," Axel replied, setting his teacup down. "Starting a business seems like a logical next move for us. We have the skills, the determination, and the shared vision of creating a realm that values equality and justice. It's time to channel our efforts into building something sustainable." Evelyn leaned forward, her eyes sparkling with enthusiasm. "I've always had a knack for economics and finance. I believe we can establish a venture that not only generates profits but also prioritizes ethical practices and social responsibility. We can demonstrate that success doesn't have to come at the expense of others." Ellie chimed in, her mischievous grin widening. "And let's not forget the unconventional touch we bring.

    Axel raised an eyebrow, bemused by Ellie's audacious proposal. The thought of destroying an entire city and plundering its riches seemed like a reckless and chaotic path to pursue. He knew that resorting to such extreme measures would only perpetuate the cycle of violence and suffering. "Ellie, that's not the way," Axel said firmly, his voice carrying a hint of disappointment. "We're not here to sow chaos and destruction. Our fight is for justice, for creating a realm where all beings can live with dignity and equality. We cannot achieve that by becoming criminals ourselves." Evelyn nodded in agreement, her expression reflecting a similar sentiment. "Axel is right. Our goal is to bring about positive change, not to spread fear and turmoil. There are other ways we can make a difference without resorting to violence or illegal activities." Ellie crossed her arms, her face contorted in frustration. "But what else can we do? The corrupt are still in power, and the oppressed continue to

    Axel's eyes narrowed, his determination unwavering. "Very well, I accept this challenge. I will face the prince and the king head-on, and I will not rest until the chains of slavery are broken and justice prevails." The salesman's lips curled into a cunning smile. "Excellent, Master Axel. I admire your confidence. This match will indeed be intriguing to witness. As a neutral party, I assure you that I will uphold my word and maintain fairness throughout." Axel nodded, a glimmer of anticipation in his eyes. "I trust in your integrity as a merchant. Let this be a test not only of my strength but also of the ideals I hold dear. I will fight for the liberation of Ivy, Merry, and all those who suffer under the yoke of slavery." The salesman extended his hand towards Axel, their gazes locking in a moment of silent understanding. "May the best man win, Master Axel. May this contest serve as a catalyst for change, and may it pave the way for a realm where freedom and justice prevail." Axel

    Axel's mind raced as Joseph's words sank in. The realization that he and the prince were being pitted against each other for the ownership of Ivy and Merry unsettled him. It was a stark reminder that even within the royal world, darkness and manipulation could lurk. Feeling the weight of the situation, Axel slowly removed his mask, revealing his face to everyone in the room. The air grew heavy with silence as all eyes turned towards him, their gazes filled with curiosity and anticipation. Joseph, maintaining his composed demeanor, spoke up once again. "You see, Master, I believe that whether it is you or the prince who acquires these elves, it will provide me with a tremendous advantage. The royal world can be a complex and intriguing place, and I am merely capitalizing on the opportunities it presents." Axel's gaze shifted to Ivy, Merry, and Alice, who seemed to show a genuine interest in him. Their eyes held a mixture of curiosity and a glimmer of hope, as if silently pleading for

    Axel listened attentively to Joseph's words, the weight of his revelation sinking in. The news that Ivy and Merry, the two elves they had encountered, were about to be purchased by the prince of the kingdom left Axel conflicted. While his previous statement about his desires had been nothing more than a lie, a part of him felt a pang of disappointment at the thought of them being taken away. "Well, it seems I'm out of luck then," Axel replied, trying to mask any trace of disappointment in his voice. "I understand that they have valuable skills and qualities that make them sought after. It's a shame, though. I hope they find happiness in their new situation." Joseph nodded sympathetically, his eyes filled with understanding. "Indeed, it is a shame. They have endured so much and deserve a life free from bondage. We can only hope that the prince treats them well and values their abilities." As they sat on the sofa, contemplating the situation, Axel couldn't help but wonder about the pr

    Axel observed the scene before them, taking in the sight of the two elven slaves who greeted them at the slave sale building. Their beauty and elegance were undeniable, capturing the attention of both Axel and Evelyn. The first elf, with her blue eyes and flowing blonde hair, exuded a sense of grace and poise. She carried herself with confidence, radiating an aura of strength despite her enslaved status. The second elf, with her captivating black hair and mesmerizing brown eyes, possessed a unique allure that set her apart from the others. Evelyn, in her elf form, approached the two slaves with a mixture of curiosity and empathy. It was clear that she felt a connection with them, perhaps recognizing a shared experience or a longing for freedom. "Welcome," the blonde-haired elf spoke softly, her voice carrying a hint of melancholy. "We are here to serve. May we assist you in any way?" Axel exchanged a glance with Evelyn, understanding the unspoken desire in her eyes. They had come t
