Hikari ended up following the white dragon to a room after gathering her friends. They'd each found several books they wanted to take with them, and there was no argument from the crystal dwarf. The elf was surprised he allowed them to simply take the books.
"The librarians let me get away with many things, since they know me well," the white dragon said. "Though, they don't know my true status. They simply think that I'm someone in the hierarchy."
"Do you mean your true status as a dragon?" Hikari asked.
"Well, there is that, but that's not all. I do run a lot of things here at the college, and many don't even know. Even that little Emperor brat has no idea. He's about to chart course to meet with me and my kin. Meanwhile, I am here at the college anyway."
"He's going to the dragon islands?"
Kurayami stepped in between them at that moment. "Master, why are you talking to this dragon when you have me?"
