Became a Hatchling of the Grand Duke of the North - Became a Hatchling of the Grand Duke of the North chapter 65

65 – General Menggun (1)

[Uh, how is it going?]

Princess Rachel and Yone’s eyes twinkled at Lucia’s careful question.

They covered their mouths and expressed genuine admiration.

[Oh… Guardian Dragon’s eyes are very good. Gee… It’s really amazing.]

[Wow… Lady, you really look good.]

It was as they said.

As expected, Lucia.

The outfit suits her quite well.

I was amazed at the eyes of the guardian dragon, Han, who was watching me.

No kidding, really great.

Thanks to his well-supported appearance, it was as if he had the feeling of a lineage that he had grown up with since childhood.

Ah, come to think of it, was it like that in the first place?

There will be no other family on this continent as high in status as the Grand Duke of the North.

A pure white, delicately revealing dress.

It made Lucia stand out.

She was not wearing any jewelry, but instead, she stood out with pure white beauty from head to toe, as if she were a princess in a fairy tale.

It was only natural that Han was attracted to that figure.

[Grrr-.]

He growled low and rubbed the nape of her neck against her white legs.

It’s too white. Somehow, it was because I liked the appearance so much that I wanted to hide my own smell.

Yone, who was watching, smiled softly.

[Guardian Dragon really likes it. You’re trying not to fall even for a moment.]

Of course not. Right now, there’s nothing strange about our Lucia no matter where someone approaches her.

Han had to be fully prepared to block such an approach at once.

It was a matter of course to cover up the smell.

* * * *

[Ha. It was a good shopping-.]

Lucia’s party went out into the streets with satisfaction.

She was wearing the white dress she had just bought.

As it was a high-end item, the price was on the high side, but none of them worried about money.

One was one of the royal family of this vast empire, and the other was the next heir to the Northern Grand Duke.

As far as being affluent, they were the best people on the continent.

There was a maid among them, but whatever.

Next they headed to the center of the plaza.

In the middle of the ecliptic, there was a famous street that people who stopped by the capital of the empire must pass through at least once.

It was the so-called meeting square.

And even while heading towards it, the guardian dragon, Han, constantly rubbed his body against Lucia’s neck.

[Whoops, it tickles me. Guardian Dragon.]

As her hair kept getting messy, Lucia twisted her body.

She couldn’t stand the act of her han tapping her own nape.

[Wow, I’m envious. Grand Duchess. Me too…]

[Guardian Dragon likes it a lot. You seem to feel the change.]

They were envious of the guardian dragon Han’s unusual interest, but in fact, the reason for his behavior was no different.

It’s because the people around them have been keeping their eyes on them since before.

No, more precisely to Lucia.

Although they stood out from the beginning.

Perhaps it was because they changed their clothes, but the people who passed by them tended to look at Lucia, who was as white as snow from head to toe.

It was the so-called attention.

Even though it was the capital of an empire with all kinds of people, it was rare to have such a striking outfit.

Thanks to that, Lucia was noticed from a very long distance.

‘I don’t like it. It’s to protect Lucia.’

Guardian Horyong Han diligently teased his elongated body and showed off his presence.

This was to prevent others from accessing it.

[Kiii-.]

He glared at the surroundings, his eyes blinking open.

Then, the few who glanced at Lucia and met her eyes immediately turned their heads away as if they didn’t know, and started walking away at a slightly faster pace.

‘Where am I going to cross?’

Guardian dragon Han showed his back and growled as he watched them walk away.

In a way, it was only natural that he was so sharp.

It was an instinct as a guardian dragon.

Lucia, the contractor, belongs only to him. He can’t hand it over to anyone…

With that thought in mind, he again held Lucia’s neck with her legs.

[Ah! Go, it’s ticklish. Guardian Dragon!]

While Han and Lucia were arguing with each other, they arrived in the middle of the plaza before they knew it.

Shoot!

You can see a fountain spouting powerful water.

They took a seat at the fountain and sat down.

Han was also the same. He casually took over Lucia’s lap as if it were his own and sat down.

The water splashing from the fountain in the back is cold and refreshing.

Little by little, water splashed onto Han’s skin-like wings and got wet.

He felt his seething inside cool down little by little. Somehow, the feeling of being a little impatient seems to subside.

He raised his calmed eyes and began to scan his surroundings.

The conversation of the party could be heard through his small eardrum.

[It is also the capital of the empire. I like that there are so many things to see.]

[That’s right, lady! Let’s go to a restaurant in a while! I heard that restaurants in the capital are so delicious…!]

They chatted with each other.

There was no sign of a break in the conversation.

They always stayed at the cold end of the northern part.

These two came down to the rich capital of all sorts of culture out of nowhere, so no matter where you look, it’s impossible not to be intrigued.

Han, the guardian dragon, was the same.

He saw several swordsmen passing through the crowd.

Those who fully armed their entire bodies with steel armor, and wore swords covered with dark red blood on their waists.

At a glance, they could be seen as having wandered aimlessly for a long time.

For those who stayed in one place, too much luggage was draped over their backs with backpacks.

Han watched them with interest.

‘They must be adventurers, right? No, a mercenary?’

I heard that there is something called a guild here.

It was a place like a kind of base for them to gather together.

Of course, even Han didn’t know it properly.

Because I had only briefly heard it in the wind at first glance.

For those who were born in the north, what happened in the capital of the Empire had been completely different.

However, in the eyes of Han, the guardian dragon, most of them were nothing more than trivial people.

I could feel the amount of mana I had implicitly.

They were mercenaries with a rough look, but most of them didn’t have the strengths that were as good as their appearance.

These are weak things that can be defeated with just one or two low-level magics he casts.

Most of them were almost normal people.

Han, the guardian dragon, blinked his pupils a couple of times with the observer’s eyes closed.

‘It seems like they said that mercenaries live on a knife-bap… But that’s too bad to be true.’

But that was then.

[Hey. Hey, ladies.]

[Huh?]

Two insignificant swordsmen approached them.

As they smiled and talked, Lucia and the others looked up at them.

[Uh…]

Lucia and Yone, who looked at each other for a while, immediately wondered.

[Do you have any business?]

It was around that time.

Citizens in the vicinity began to slowly move away. It was because I sensed something was wrong.

They are girls with an unusual status even at a glance.

If you add the two mercenaries who stopped them and talked to them, there was no doubt that it would happen no matter what happened.

From the standpoint of petit bourgeois, there was nothing to be avoided as much as this.

‘What are these?’

It was a natural result that Han’s eyebrows were distorted.

He expressed his displeasure.

[Kiii-.]

[Huh? What is this?]

The gaze of the two swordsmen naturally turned to him at the sight of Han raising his tail threateningly.

[The one with wings and a tail looks just like a young wyvern.]

[Wyvern? Ha ha ha!]

They giggled at each other at what was so funny.

And around that time, even Lucia, who had never been in a situation like this before and wasn’t in a hurry, could get a feel for it.

That means they’re trying to harass Lucia’s party now.

Lucia said firmly.

[I will call the guards. Get away from us right now.]

[Hey, ladies. Don’t be so cold… Huh? How about a drink with us?]

They naturally took the seats next to them and sat together.

At the same time, the hints of them teasing and talking to each other, at least, didn’t look like they were going back well.

[Ha. It’s a start again.]

Princess Rachel. She let out a soft sigh.

She looked back for a moment at these swordsmen who dared not even know her own identity, and clicked her tongue in pity.

[Hey, mercenaries.]

Princess Rachel smiled and spoke to her.

[Oh, what is it? Miss?]

[Do you know who you guys are talking to right now?]

Then, she thought.

Okay. If I had known in the first place, I would not have done this. At a cursory glance, they were no-nonsense vagabonds, but it was clear that they were not even thinking about it.

[I’ll take you to the guards for now.]

[Kick, where are the guards here? Don’t do that with me-.]

[Yes. It’s very natural. And…]

Sure.

Princess Rachel, who raised her hand leisurely, stared in a certain direction, and then she spat out a word.

[It’s good to shoot. Despising the imperial family is a serious crime.]

From noble mtl dot com

f*ck!

Afraid of hearing that sound, something shot through the air and without any warning struck the swordsmen.

Plop!!

They couldn’t even scream and fell into the fountain behind them.

Out of the blue.

At the sight of the water splashing and bouncing, some citizens shouted in surprise.

[Kyaaa!!]
