How To Tame an Academy Dragon - How To Tame an Academy Dragon chapter 92
92. Flame-like love
“I’ll be watching, so come back.”
As we leaned against the wall after helping the fallen Sistar, Horcos told us to take care of it first.
“Are you okay?”
Is it okay to put Horkos, who doesn’t know when his dementia will recur, and Sistar, who must be quite shocked?
“That’s why it’ll be alright, so come back.”
Horcos smiled slightly as if he had read my concerns.
“Hey, I don’t have time.”
“Uh. Yes. I see.”
Yes. If I rather go back to being an old man with dementia, Sistar will be distracted, and what happened before will be somewhat diluted.
Inevitably, he spreads his wings to the fuss of Doha.
“Then let’s go.”
“Wait.”
I was just about to jump to start. Horcos called us.
Just when we were trying to guess why he had called us, Horkos reached out to us and a bright beam of light flowed from his palm.
If light breaks and flows as fragments, would it feel like this?
The mana, which had a different feeling from the mana used by others, wrapped around our bodies and eventually disappeared.
What is it? Did Horcos give him a blessing?
“Pa, arm! Your arm!”
“My arm? My, my arm!!”
At that time, Doha shouted urgently and pulled my shoulder.
Inadvertently looking down at my arm during the fuss of Doha, I found my right arm disappearing in real time.
“I put a spell on it so it can hide itself.”
“Oh.”
Horcos added a quick explanation before we panicked and started a fuss.
“Oh… Really?”
Do-ha, who was originally groping for the place where my right arm should be, grabbed my transparent arm and opened her eyes wide.
“You have a sense. You really can’t see it.”
Looking at her doha, she also has her face, but the lower body except for the upper body has already become transparent.
At this speed, it won’t be long before everything becomes transparent.
“Let’s go now.”
I was surprised to see my body become transparent, but Horkos lightly urged me, because somehow it seemed like I was procrastinating again.
“Hey, let’s go quickly.”
“Huh? Uh uh. Hey, go on your own…Ugh!!!”
Doha, urged by Horcos, takes off while holding onto my arm.
The only sound I can hear is the rough wind. Because it was caught by Doha’s violent grip, it couldn’t even spread its wings and was dragged to the ground.
Thanks to Doha’s tightly gripped hand that hurts, I’m not worried about falling, but I’m worried that she’s heading in the right direction.
“Are you going right?!”
“You can go to the continent! If you’re going to nag, fly!”
“Whoa!!”
Doha tic-tick-tick-tick-tick-tick-tick-tick-tick-tick-tick-tick-tick-tick-tick-tick-tick-tick-tick-tick-tick-tick-tick-tack of doing so threw me into the air.
After spinning about 5 times in the sky, I barely spread my wings and managed to fly, shaking my head to regain my senses.
“Where is this?”
There was no sense of location at all because the scenery passed by like a shotgun.
I slowly looked around and saw the top of the open sea. I hear thunder and lightning hitting my eardrums, and the sound of ferocious rain.
And in the sea in front, as dark as night, the waves were running wild.
You thought of going to the continent through this? They said it wasn’t until when we started, but I’m not afraid.
“Where is Doha anyway. Doha!”
“Why!”
“Oooh…! Surprise me.”
I am startled and widen the distance to the other side of the sound.
Thanks to Doha shouting right in my ear, I managed to swallow the insults that came up inadvertently.
“You were surprised.”
“Really. Look at the mana. Mana.”
Look at mana?
The moment I thought that, I began to see Doha faintly in front of me.
It’s just that it’s a different feeling from what I normally see, but should I say that it feels like a colorblind filter is overlaid on the world?
“Can you see now?”
“Oh. I can see it. I can see it, so please stop making that expression.”
I say nothing to Doha, who is making a crooked expression as if he is pathetic.
“I’m over there. You’re over here. Let’s make a big round and see you on the other side.”
Doha points to the left and chins me to go to the right.
I was about to ask how we could meet again in this endless talk, but I nodded her head, thinking that she would come looking for me somehow.
After flapping their wings in opposite directions at the same time, I focused my attention on the sea.
“It must not have become fish food already…”
Sometimes unknown fragments or wreckage are visible on the waves, so it kills my anxious mind.
“…Foot!! Look at the back…!”
Around the time you feel that you are near the center of the storm. A very low voice came from somewhere.
Even though it was buried in the sound of thunder, rain, and the crumbling waves, it was definitely the curse that the man shouted out of evil.
“Sir. It’s hard.”
As I tried to stop, I almost lost my balance when the strong gust of wind pushed me.
Standing still, I spread mana at full range. As I endlessly increased the range like a spider’s web, I sensed an aura floating on the surface of the water.
“That way.”
The energy of only one person felt in this storm. If it were Dohara, it would feel bigger, and it would definitely be a man named Joseph.
Put power into the wings, spur again, and move forward. Soon after, a small boat floating dangerously on the sea caught my eye.
“Even if the weather is nice, isn’t it unreasonable to cross the sea in a small boat?”
Or is the sea man originally that way?
Anyway, since we found Joseph, let’s send a signal to Doha.
I thought about what to do while flying, but it seemed to me that Doha, who felt an unexpected change, would come to visit me if I just let out a huge amount of my mana.
“Suck!”
Explodes demons with a short burst of energy. The purple demonic energy emitted only enough to be seen, but the surrounding rainwater was pushed by the demonic energy and exploded in a circular shape.
Is this enough for Doha to detect? First of all, let’s get the man out of the sea.
The closer you got to Joseph’s boat, the more clearly you could hear the rough sea man’s swear words.
“f*cking bastards! Attack! Attack! I’d rather starve and go to the arms of the sea god!!”
Joseph is shouting boldly in a dark storm with no end in sight.
“Hold on, you bastard! You can’t even stand a storm!”
I gently landed on the stern of the boat so he wouldn’t be surprised, and I looked at Joseph, who was barely holding on to the bow-like mast.
He is a tall-looking young man with a stern mouth.
While Joseph struggles, he ponders how to talk to him.
Transparency is not working.
Thinking so, he raised his hand, and the right hand slowly began to appear as if it were disappearing.
Did you set the invisibility to automatically break when you run into Joseph?
“Hold on!”
I approach Joseph who is holding on to the rope.
“Hey there.”
“Hold on!”
“Hey, is that Mr. Joseph?”
Is it because he knows that there is no one on the boat to talk to? Joseph pretends not to hear me when I call his name right behind him.
“Joseph! Son of Joseph!”
“Aagh!!”
At last, after shouting loudly at his back, Joseph was startled and fell.
Crundy! Quick!
The mast, which lost its strength because it had lost its rope as it fell, snapped in an instant, flew away, and was swallowed up by the sea.
I was watching the mast disappear in an instant when I heard Joseph’s voice.
“Who, who are you!! Uh, uh, how are you on a boat…”
As I turn my head and look down at the fallen Joseph, Joseph’s voice goes down.
Joseph busily scans my appearance.
Ah, do I have horns now?
I raise my hand and feel his hair, and I can feel the hard horns.
“For fear of misunderstanding…”
“Ah, ah, the devil!! The evil devil, the devil, how, how…”
Is it late?
Joseph steps back even further, his face changing from surprise to horror.
“If you go further from there, it’s a puddle in the sea.”
Joseph hurriedly looked behind him at my words and saw the sea water crashing right under him and sneaked inside.
“Did I come to sign a contract with my soul as collateral…?”
Soul? Contract? Ah, it seems that the devil is in a roughly similar position in this world.
“Hmm.”
It’s annoying to explain anyway, but it wouldn’t be bad to just pretend to sign a contract and save it.
Decision to stick to the devil cosplay, I crouched down in front of Joseph.
“That’s right. I’m a devil. I’m a bit of a devil. It’s not even a job to get one of you out of the sea.”
I whisper to Joseph with a little jaggery.
“There is no need for a price. If you survive safely, all you have to do is listen to my one last request.”
“What, what kind of request…?”
“Isn’t it a big deal? It’s not fun to say in advance.”
As I was doing it, Joseph’s frightened reaction became interesting.
Joseph seems to be seriously thinking after hearing my words.
That’s how desperate the situation is, and you’re probably worried about what a request in exchange for your life is.
“I can’t do it. You’re weighing. I’ll count for 5 seconds, so please decide.”
“Now, hold on.”
“5~”
There is no time to procrastinate. I just want to rescue him and return to the island.
Adding a bit of a desire to bully him, he puts it in front of Joseph and folds one of his fingers.
“4~”
Another one is folded.
Every time his fingers fold, the internal conflict revealed in Joseph’s expression is getting bigger and bigger.
What is it? Why is this funny
Quick!
“3~ Oops.”
While counting, an unpleasant sound comes from the stern of the boat, and the boat shakes violently.
“Heo Eok!”
Joseph, who barely held on to the railing, looks at me with scattered hair.
“2~”
“I’ll do it!!”
As I try to get up on the count of two, Joseph hurriedly crawls in front of him and grabs my hand.
“I’ll do it. Just let me live! I can’t die like this!”
“A long time ago.”
I am proud that Joseph made his decision. I turned around and sat down again, showing my back to Joseph.
“I… What can I do?”
“What should I do?”
“Ah, you want to be lifted up by the devil?”
Is this child full? Or has the fear faded with the hope of living?
I woke up in amazement and looked back at Joseph. When I stare at him, Joseph secretly avoids my gaze.
“Then should I hug you like a princess?”
“Oh, no.”
Joseph quickly shakes his head as I reproach him. So, make it work twice.
“Oh. That’s right.”
“Why, why?
With Joseph on my back, I realized something very important.
Joseph cautiously asks me when I talk to myself.
“I can’t do it. I’m going to go hug the princess.”
“Yes?”
“I can’t spread my wings when I’m there. I’m sorry.”
It’s even more cumbersome because it has four wings. If he flaps his wings wrong, won’t Joseph be launched?
Joseph, who had no choice but to come down from the back, stares at me with an unwilling face.
“I don’t like it either. It’s me who makes me feel bad about carrying a man. How can the devil’s working conditions be so bad?”
“…Yes.”
Desperate, Joseph entrusted himself to me. It’s not good to carry a grown man in front of you.
“If possible, don’t look at me. Look somewhere else.”
“Yes.”
Listen carefully. Let’s go.
Prepare for the run-up by spreading the wings and lowering the posture. Doha, you know, I’ll follow you.
“Chaaat! Eug?”
He jumped up with a spirit, but his feet didn’t come off the boat, so he almost fell forward.
As I stumble and regain my balance, Joseph looks up at me asking what I am doing.
“I told you not to look.”
“Sorry.”
I lowered my stance and jumped up again, but my feet didn’t come off.
Feet that doesn’t move as if it was glued together. It feels like the wings aren’t moving like I thought…
“What is it? Why are you doing this?”
I walk forward while holding Joseph.
“Does it work?”
My feet fall off as I walk. I took a few steps forward and jumped again, but my feet didn’t come off when I jumped.
“Devil…?”
Joseph was relieved with the hope that he could live, but as I was procrastinating, it seemed that anxiety came over again.
I smiled awkwardly at Joseph who looked at me with worried eyes and gave me the sad news.
“I think we’re screwed?”
“Yes?”
“Kyaaa!!!”
Joseph’s pupils widened from the shock. At that moment, Doha’s sharp screams were heard overhead.
Me and Joseph, looking up at the sky at the same time, spotted a winged woman falling over our heads.
“Get out of the way!!!!”
Quang! Kwaji Jik!
Doha crashed into Joseph’s small boat along with the short-haired horse, and the boat was split in two due to the headbutt of the dragon, which was only human in appearance.
Joseph and I, who jumped out of the boat in shock, looked at each other while hovering in the air, and soon felt gravity pulling our bodies.
“Aaghh!!”
“aaa!!!”
Plop!
I lost consciousness as my body hit the cold sea.
