I Became the Son of an Evil Dragon - I Became the Son of an Evil Dragon chapter 83
83 – Enlightenment of Someone Who Had No Partner (4)
“Wow.”
“That’s right. Let it out easily. It gets harder if you hold it in.”
In a forest with no one around.
There I was pouring out what I had eaten.
Although darkness had fallen, the slowly brightening morning told me about the time I had spent.
“Still, I managed to escape just in the nick of time.
Of course we will have to increase the distance, but for the time being, we will have to move again.
I may not be able to use the nearby hideout… But if I move a little further from here, there is a place I kept in reserve.”
I was keenly aware of the meaning of the words that I would not be able to adapt to teleportation using magic.
Just a moment ago, I was stepping on a wooden floor, but now I couldn’t easily accept the feeling of standing in the grass.
It felt like hardness and softness were mixed somewhere in the middle.
And, it didn’t end there.
In a room where there wasn’t even a breath of wind, the night wind suddenly pushed my body, causing me to sway.
I felt bad in many ways.
“Ugh…”
“It’s hard. Do you want to hold your tail?”
“Tail… I like it…”
“Holding something you like makes you feel at ease. You can hug it.
Oh, wipe your mouth before that.”
I felt a little bad that they said it as if I couldn’t live without a tail,
At the same time, it was also true that it was tempting.
Mr. Luterrier, a soft man full of fur rather than scales.
That fact alone –
“Wow…!”
“Yes, yes.
If possible, it would be better to hold it once everything is sorted out.”
Should I be grateful for the hand that pats me on the back and helps me to steadily get the floor dirty?
Or would it be right to ask him to take his hand off to make it less messy?
It felt like the sounds of the adventurers coming through the entrance were still echoing in my ears.
“Huh…”
What passes through your nose is not the smell of dust that has lost its scent due to the powder,
The stinging sensation of grass gently rising from the slightly wet ground –
The thick scent of rich soil.
Still, this refreshing stimulation was clearing my complicated head to some extent.
“Would you like some water?”
“…Yes.”
I nodded, unable to swallow the saliva that had collected all the horrible taste in my mouth and spit it out on the floor.
I wanted to touch the floor right away, but there wasn’t enough space…Embarrassingly enough.
“Follow me. I’m not staying here, but I still have water to drink.”
“Storage… Huh?”
“Did you really think you had come to a place where there was nothing?
Even looking at it like this, he is a demon hunter. It is basic to prepare for this and that before living.”
There was a small house behind it.
It reminds her of the days when she lived with her grandmother,
However, it looks much more neat and sturdy than that.
“There’s… “One more place like this?”
“Do you really think there’s just one more?”
It was even more amazing inside.
Of course, it was covered in a little dust, but the table and chairs were still intact.
Starting with the pipe that glows blue and flows out water as soon as you touch it,
From neatly stored dishes to various bags placed on the floor.
Would an adventurer be able to prepare this much?
And is this what I should aim for?
“Come here. Just rinse your mouth and let’s go.”
“…I can’t stay here today, right?”
“Puh, isn’t it cool?”
“Yes. A lot.”
When I approached the hand that was calling me and put my mouth to the water, water was gushing out so cool that my lips were sore.
I sucked it in with my mouth and passed it down my throat, and it felt tingling yet refreshing.
“It always cost a bit more money, but it was prepared for times like this.
I was hoping the day would never come when I would have to write about it… But I can’t help it.”
“Why don’t you want to use it? “The house is really nice.”
Enough to live right now,
Of course, I have to clean it up a bit.
It’s a cozy and nice house.
For some reason, Mr. Luterrier did not look very pleased with this fact.
“It is right to avoid anything that puts me in danger as much as possible, or to not come.
More than anything, I prepared it for when the time comes for the demons to hunt me.”
“…It’s for emergency use, right?”
“And it’s best not to come to such an emergency.
Your mother was unexpected.”
Well, it was like that.
I was running away from her mom now,
Just a moment ago, I was sweeping up all the hair that wasn’t mine because I couldn’t chase after him with magic.
“Then you can’t rest.”
“The place we’re going to is similar to here.
On the contrary, since I’ve never used it, it’s cleaner… No, I guess it’s dirty.
Anyway, I might have to clean it once.”
After saying that, Mr. Luterrier hugged his tail for a moment and fell asleep,
Soon he picked up one of the bags on the floor and held it out to me.
“Now. A gift.”
“Eh?”
“It’s an emergency bag full of things I’ll need in the future.
I said it was a gift, but we’ll be using it for a while.”
“What’s inside – ugh, it’s heavy..!”
I thought it would just contain some clothes.
As soon as I received it, my body swayed and I fell forward –
“Be careful!”
Stop being caught by the arms that came under both of my arms,
I leaned my face against the slightly hard stomach
“Is this really that heavy? There must have been only a few things inside…”
As soon as I caught it, my body swayed and leaned forward.
Mr. Luterrier held the bag with one hand and casually raised it and looked down.
“Well, maybe it’s because I only studied magic.”
And yet, holding me tightly with one hand,
I hastily pulled away from Mr. Luterrier, who was tilting his head casually.
Then, without even turning his face to me, he tapped my face once with his tail his his his …
“No matter how much I studied magic.
What can I do properly if my physical strength is this low?”
“From now on, I have to raise it. While going on adventures…?
In the meantime, I just studied a lot with my mom.”
“You just kept her by your side and made her study? Anything else?”
“Eat delicious food, talk together…
I especially heard a lot about the old days.
It was really nice back then.”
While reliving the happy moments step by step,
I was also able to look back on how those times gradually changed.
From noble mtl dot net
At some point, it wasn’t enough to just hug me and wrap me around with my tail,
He asked me if he loved me, and then confessed that he liked me in a different way.
After that…
“A mother is a mother. Is that so?”
It was Mr. Luterrier who woke me up from my thoughts.
And those words seemed like a replacement for what I was trying to say, so I nodded vigorously.
“Then it gets weird again.
Even though you don’t like it that much, the dragon is like a lover…”
“He suddenly started doing that at some point.
Honestly… It’s very burdensome.”
After putting down the heavy bag, the hand that strokes me while I’m lost in thought is awkward, but –
Still, it was the kind of warmth that gave a pleasant tingling sensation to the head.
It feels very different from my mother’s, which started to feel sticky at some point.
“You’ve gone through a lot of hardships at such a young age?”
“…Still, I think it will probably be less difficult than it was for my mom.”
“Why? Your mom… You know, she’s famous?”
Recalling the moment when I thought I knew why it was called the evil dragon, I trembled slightly.
The way he killed people so easily proved that his name was not a lie.
But… When I thought about the reason, there was nothing I couldn’t understand.
“It’s long, so to speak.
…First of all, what my mom told me was – “
Puck.
And again the tail hit my face.
This time, the hair that got into my mouth got wrapped around my tongue, so I had no choice but to open my mouth and stick my head out.
“Ugh…”
“Pfft, did it go into your mouth this time?”
“Ehh…”
No matter how soft it is, once it goes into your mouth, it becomes a completely different problem.
Feeling long and uncomfortable, I ran my fingers over it, and when I somehow managed to pull it off, the number was three.
I’m sure I swept up a handful of golden fur in that room.
It seemed like the hair was still falling out.
“I’m sorry.
Still, I heard the story is quite long?
I think I need to move now,
For now, let’s focus on our adventure. How about it?
“I’ll tell you a story later when I arrive?”
“Okay.”
“Be kind too.”
Although I really like being petted,
Mr. Luterrier is really bad at petting.
Still, it was good.
Hitting the face with the tail once was a bit much,
Still, the sight of it fluttering from side to side made me happy.
“…Then, the treasure that the dragon had actually had no owner… D.”
“Yes?”
“No. I wanted to know roughly how things work.”
As I get older, will I be able to mutter something incomprehensible?
Mom, Mr. Luterrier, the guard captain,
Everyone was talking to themselves using difficult words and sentences.
“Then Yong, I mean, you like your mom as ‘Mom’. Right?”
“Hmm – I guess so.”
“Huh, if it’s right, it’s right, otherwise it’s not.
What do you mean it’s probably like that?”
This time, the wriggling tail hit my cheek with its tip.
The fluff of hair bouncing around kept tickling my nose.
It was refreshing to use her tail in a different way than her mother her her her, but at the same time-
“Eh chwi!”
“…Really. It’s fun to pick on him. It’s because he’s so pure.”
This time, I couldn’t hear what they were saying because it was drowned out by the sound.
Still, I didn’t think it would have that good of a meaning.
Of course, the smile on his face was full of joy.
“Then, I’ll do the heavy lifting.
I want you to carry my bag.”
“Got it, huh?!”
This time, while groaning at the weight pressing down on my shoulders,
Also, I was somehow able to lift a leather backpack that wasn’t that hard to lift.
“That’s right. At the same time, you’ll build your strength.
Today, I’m going to carry it and walk for a while.
Are you ready?”
It seemed like a bit of a stretch, but I nodded as I felt like I could barely hold on.
Then, with a bright smile, Mr. Luterrier turned his back to me.
“Before that, touch my tail once.”
“Yes?”
“Hurry up. Get your energy up and move quickly.”
…On the one hand, I didn’t understand why people were talking about petting something as if it was natural,
Anyway, I carefully reached out my hand and touched it.
A happy snorting sound was heard, and her tail began to flutter.
“Good. Let’s go!”
It was an amazing feeling.
