An explosive lion's roar erupted from the tiny body. The sound was cute, but the volume was immense. The siblings were startled and nearly fainted. The second sibling rolled around and nearly tumbled out of the nest. The terrified dragon parent blocked the nest's edge with his tail. The reptile's vertically slit pupils dilated in shock. Ha! I puffed out my chest. Though currently smaller than average, I did my best to show I would be a great dragon someday. The parent dragon snorted once, then…- 171.8 K • Completed
1. Our dragon doesn't bite. I have no idea what happened. Nothing was visible. Whether I opened or closed my eyes, the world was pitch black. What did I do last night? Well, what else? Probably just drank myself silly again. At the end of my self-deprecating monologue, I heard a sound. A faint murmur, like the rustling of reeds, grew clearer the more I focused. “The wind is stronger than expected. It won't work today.” “No. We've watched long enough. If we keep this up, it'll…- 171.8 K • Completed
I am a frail little baby dragon. I am a frail little baby dragon. I am a frail little baby dragon...! I staggered, propping my forehead with my front paws. Wilted like blanched spinach. I even made my cries deliberately pitiful. Then, toward the Emperor whose expression looked strange, I sent fervent signals with my eyes. Please notice me! "...Well, being a youngling, his stamina is still quite weak. We should take him inside to rest." Nice! "Ah! Surely His Majesty Kremlis isn't... ill…- 171.8 K • Completed
The man who knew I was serious hesitated briefly, then he began shuttling between houses, fetching handfuls of oil, flint, and straw. ……A ball of light the size of a human head burst forth just as Kaelus was about to set fire to the base of the tree. Kaelus recoiled, startled even more than when he’d heard my declaration of arson. The expression evaporated from his face. Stiff and grave. He looked exactly like Kaelus from before he had fallen here. He bristled like a predator under…- 171.8 K • Completed
“……Something like that happened.” “…….” “What do you think?” “I think it’s somewhat true.” “About faces?” “About needing the vessel Artifact.” “…….” “It’s a new perspective, not to control violence, but to secure the vessel artifact for fear of it being stolen by another nation.” Kaelus remained silent. He did not seem to be really listening to what was being said. Nitan shrugged inwardly. ‘He must have a lot on his…- 171.8 K • Completed
"Ah, I'll take full responsibility!" "Do you realize that statement itself is the very symbol of irresponsibility?" "......" Unable to win with words, Tortan had no choice but to resort to his final measure. He let go of the calves he’d been clutching like a lifeline. Instead, he sprawled out on the office floor, clenching both fists. Kaelus’s expression, which had anticipated what was to come, clouded over, and contempt flickered in his gray eyes. Tortan faltered, but only…- 171.8 K • Completed
A month had passed since their return. The relationship between Yuram and Kaelus grew increasingly awkward. More precisely, Kaelus was unilaterally avoiding Yuram. For the first few days, Yuram understood and deliberately kept his distance. But when Kaelus' avoidance stretched past a week, Yuram finally exploded. He confronted Kaelus in a somewhat extreme way. He abruptly transformed into human and moved into the annex. ...But he was too scared to cause a complete incident, so he called Nitan…- 171.8 K • Completed
Though separated by a saddle, the two felt as if they were touching. ……That was probably because they already knew that sensation. Without the interference of clothes or blankets, their skin was a shock to each other. It was rough and hot. It felt like what flowed beneath their skin wasn't blood but lava. The defined muscles quivered with the man's movements. A huge, heavy body greedily crushed him. He felt ecstasy in the suffocating pressure. Weight was presence. He wanted him to…- 171.8 K • Completed
The first thing I did after regaining consciousness was open the window, jump out, and scrape my collarbone against the window edge. … It was a catastrophe born of confusion and momentary panic. Fortunately, Kaelus, who was beside me, reacted in time, so I ended up dangling from the terrace. Kaelus gritted his teeth and pulled me up. I lay sprawled on the floor, catching my breath. I… I survived… “…” ……No. I'm going to die. The gaze I felt on the top of my head was…- 171.8 K • Completed
"Well, you see..." "No. That's enough." Kaelus received his answer and sighed. He pushed the healer away. After skillfully securing the remaining bandages, he staggered off the bed. He stopped after barely three steps. One hand pressed to his chest, he gasped for breaths. But as if nothing had happened, he started walking again. This time, he didn't stop. Nitan, who had been waiting like a piece of furniture in the corner, quietly followed. The two crossed the corridors of Anax…- 171.8 K • Completed
