Became a Hatchling of the Grand Duke of the North - Became a Hatchling of the Grand Duke of the North chapter 58

58 – Bow your head, you trifles! (3)

[By the way, I heard that even among the freshmen this time, there was one person with a special character. By the way, the most famous magician in this empire is none other than Sir Arcana Siran, the Imperial Archmage.]

At that sound, Han stood out.

‘Oh. Was that arcana a special type?’

Somehow, he was a rather unusual human being, but now I see that there was a reason for that.

‘By the way, who is the one of the specialties who appeared in this freshman year?’

* * * *

That night.

Guardian dragon Han was asleep in Lucia’s arms.

Leakage-. New fluid -.

They seemed to be in a deep sleep, breathing evenly, as if they had no intention of waking up at all.

She had been tossing and turning from time to time in the past few days after leaving the house of the Grand Duke, where she had been living all along.

She no longer tosses and turns like she used to.

Of course, even while asleep, the guardian dragon Han did not forget what he had to do.

He was clutching a large cushion placed in the corner with his empty right forepaw.

It’s like this even while you’re asleep.

The obsession with cushions that never let go of power seemed obvious.

Tick tock. Tick.

Time passed continuously.

At some point, even the darkness outside is gradually illuminated by the rising moonlight.

Lucia, who was suddenly in a deep sleep, suddenly flinched.

“Ummm…”

Lucia’s long white arms, which seemed to be turning over her body, went straight to the cushion he was holding on to the guardian dragon.

Snap.

I was afraid to touch the cushion with my hand, and the things inside collided with each other and let out a faint sound.

That moment.

‘Flash’, the eyes of Han, the guardian dragon who had been sleeping as if dead, suddenly opened.

His sharp pupils scanned left and right.

Damn it.

At once, cold air began to rush inside.

The angry dragon’s ice magic has been implemented.

‘Someone dares to take my gold coins…’

As long as someone wanted to steal his gold coins.

Obviously, he growled, revealing even his small, blunt teeth.

He reflexively checked the condition of his cushion.

However, the owner of the hand on it belonged to Lucia, his contractor.

‘Ah… What is it, me again.’

It must have been an illusion.

Han instantly disrupted the magic of the cold wind he had raised, and calmed his spirits.

‘No. But it’s just in case you don’t know.’

I feel anxious. So, it’s humiliating.

Han secretly examined the inside of his cushion.

[Kiii.]

Piles of gold coins glistening golden enough to distinguish their light in the dark.

Han’s mouth twitched at the sight of them.

His precious treasures.

The desire to roll down with this in my arms right now was like a chimney.

But first, he counted the numbers one by one because he didn’t know if there would be any loss.

‘One, two, three…’

Of course, it would be natural if it was obvious, but there was no need to count the gold coins at all.

The number of gold coins was exactly ten.

But he wondered if he was wrong, so he started counting over and over again, and so on until dawn came.

The dragons’ obsession with treasure was more extreme than expected.

‘Good.’

And finally.

It was around the time that Han finally had the conviction to stop such behavior.

At some point, he felt that all his energy had gone.

He had no desire to lie down and sleep again.

He buried his treasures under the cushion again and stood up.

Did they know that the guardian dragon Han was trying to escape?

[Ahmm… Guardian Dragon Niim…]

I could feel Lucia in her pajamas hugging him a little tighter, but Han managed to slip away.

He has already come out like this several times.

Of course, that didn’t mean he could just come out, so Han quietly licked Lucia’s cheek and left.

As long as he flew through the air and landed on the window.

Han completely opened the window, and he looked back at Lucia one last time and left a greeting.

‘I’ll be right back, Lucia.’

Kik-.

With those words, the guardian dragon Han jumped outside as if jumping.

In a quiet room.

Inside it, Lucia was breathing heavily, still unaware that the resentment was gone.

* * * *

Whoop-.

A light breeze that flowed like a river around him began to gather around him.

Manipulating the collected wind, Han flew up into the sky.

Tak.

Han landed on the roof of the dormitory.

‘Hey. Feel so good.’

The rooftop was quiet.

Under the falling moonlight, Han, the guardian dragon, enjoyed his leisure time alone and walked leisurely on it.

He was so far away from the ground that it was dizzying, but it had nothing to do with him with wings.

Because he was a being who had no problems even flying backwards.

It happened in the middle of that.

‘What are these?’

Han, the guardian dragon, froze on the spot.

[Miaoong-.]

[Meow-.]

A corner on the roof.

There were cats huddled together.

Not one or two.

There were quite a number of them, to the extent that I wondered if some group of cats came out with their true hair.

A good ten were more than enough to seem.

[Myaaa-.]

However, some of them flew through the air, or even had two or three tails.

The so-called magical creatures were exactly that.

‘These guys…’

As long as I blinked for a moment.

As if they noticed Han’s appearance, they also stared at each other.

However, Han noticed that the ‘string’ of the contract was connected to them.

And also that it is connected to the cadets currently sleeping in various places in the dormitory.

If there was a lot of energy around him, he couldn’t be unaware of it due to the nature of Han’s reading at once.

‘Aha.’

Thanks to this, Han immediately sensed the identity of these guys.

‘It’s obvious just by looking at it. These are the things that the dormitory cadets raise?’

Those magical creatures also had their own contractors.

Han didn’t really care if he didn’t pose much of a threat to his contractor, Lucia.

The types of guys were quite diverse.

Of course, most of them were just ordinary cats, but among them there were also cats with two or three tails, also called nekomata.

He was floating in the air as if he was slipping while letting out the sound of ‘Nyaaang’, and he seemed to have made the sky his bed.

[Kururu-.]

I also saw a guy crouching alone in the dark.

It was a small black leopard that was considered to be quite rare, and was an individual called a Night Walker.

Like a hazy smoke screen, I see darkness floating around its body.

It must have been related to innate abilities.

If you think about it, this was a dormitory exclusively for nobles.

As such, it was only natural that the number of cadets with magical creatures, which were said to be relatively expensive, would be greater than that of commoner dormitories.

In fact, Han had never seen so many magical creatures before.

Flock of cats.

They gazed at the guardian dragon with interest.

Some even wag their tails with curious eyes.

‘Huh.’

Upon receiving those gazes, Han immediately snorted and turned his head away.

I had no intention of responding to those guys’ gazes.

To think that a dragon and a cat with high limbs stay in one place. That’s not even funny.

So at first, I was just trying to ignore it.

He just turned around.

‘Let’s all play together well. ‘Cause I’m on my way.’

He slowly turned and headed to the other side of him.

It was to have some time alone.

I went outside at dawn, but I can’t waste this time.

Thanks to that, he started to walk to the other side with brisk steps-,

[Myaaa-.]

[Meowong-.]

Suddenly, these cats started following Han himself.

Han stopped and blinked his eyes, startled by the unexpected situation.

‘…What, what. These?’

Then the guys also stopped on the spot and began to look away.

As Han steps forward again, he follows him again.

I stopped and the guys stopped together, and such a strange thing was repeated.

[Key, Kiii.]

Han’s eyebrows twitched.

‘What the hell are you doing?’

Among them was the intimidating Black Panther and Night Walker.

The guy followed Han while wagging his long tail, keeping some distance for some reason.

‘These bastards are real.’

It was a fleeting moment when I was starting to get annoyed.

His white teeth were exposed.

But before Han could even show his emotions in this bizarre situation.

The message from the system, which I had seen many times before, came to mind once again.

Diring!

‘Huh?’

[Congratulations!]

[Acquiring familiarity with lower species, new abilities unlocked!]

[The ‘Ruler of the Cat Corps’ trait is added.]

‘What, what is it? This.’

A really unexpected message.

Han stopped in place in a panic at the appearance of a message that appeared out of nowhere.
