How to Live as a Half-Dragon

030. Reunion (3).

Although he had received permission from Hughes, Xi’an felt a little strange when he returned.

“hmm… what?”

I somehow persuaded him, but it was because Hughes didn’t allow it too easily.

I wondered what to do with the use of force, but that wasn’t the case…

Hughes ordered it, so I wondered what everyone was thinking, but somehow I was concerned.

‘By the way, that grandfather was also a great person… .’

Pure admiration for Drake followed.

A short conversation with Hughes was enough to feel it.

Seems pretty famous…

But these thoughts are not important right now.

I’ll have to ask Hughes about this later.

What was really important was that Xian was starting to become conscious of Drake.

“There can be no such thing as a poor person… .”

If you didn’t know, wouldn’t you know?

After knowing that he was a great person, I couldn’t help but be nervous.

It shouldn’t be revealed on the face, but it was very difficult.

“From now on, let’s really focus.”

As a result of running like he did when he came, he was ready to join the group again, so he set his mind on it and left the forest.

Drake, who had been waiting for him, gave a sweet night to the approaching Xian.

“I thought it was going to happen, you bastard.”

“Ouch… .”

I always feel it, but it really hurts even when it hurts.

Some kind of honey chestnut is heavier than the kicks of the slayer I met before…

‘But is this the end?’

Being sick is sick, and I suddenly wondered.

To be honest, why did you go so far just to pee?

why are you so late

I thought that a bout of interrogation would continue, but there was no way I wouldn’t mind that it ended with just one night.

‘Did I get caught?’

The possibility was not entirely absent.

It may be an intention to use it for now and deal with it after the work is finished.

Because now was the time I needed myself.

Drake said as Xian glanced at him.

“How rare… .”

“What?”

“Why does the guy who said he went to the toilet look like a mutt holding back like this?”

Xian was shocked inside.

Didn’t you really notice?

“… that!”

“It’s okay, I just said it, so you should go back to your seat.”

As if annoying, Drake moved to his seat.

Sian groaned in uneasiness and headed to the back.

Leah also said while walking along Xian.

“My grandfather was very worried.”

“worry? what?”

“… … .”

“me?”

“It might be hard to believe.”

I thought it was well worth it.

If Xian falls out right away, Leah will have to face the back row alone.

“Well, without me… .”

“no.”

Leah firmly pointed out that it was not.

“It’s not like that, he just worried about you.”

“Uh um… okay?”

“Yeah, but stop chatting now.”

Soon after, the procession started moving again.

Xian, who was walking along, felt strange.

It felt fresh that someone other than her mother or Hughes cared about her.

‘I see… .’

I could see why Hughes didn’t give up on his suggestion to run away.

I don’t have the illusion that dragons and humans can live together, but at least I don’t know if I didn’t want to end this meeting with a bad relationship.

Fundamentally, he knew that Drake himself was not an evil person.

It was then that Xian, who was thinking such a thing, was startled.

A familiar presence dominated the five senses.

‘It’s a bastard!’

Xian pulled out the dagger from his waist and ran out.

* * *

That the body moves before consciousness.

Xian was experiencing just that.

It was because he sensed the presence of the Dragonian and jumped out before he knew it.

Disbelief appeared on the face of the dragonian who was aiming for Leah.

‘It must be surprising… .’

After the last time and this time, the attack was blocked by the same person twice.

Moreover, as the technical aspects were added this time, there was no lifting of feet from the ground.

I was able to block the attack to the extent of being pushed back.

“You guys again… .”

Xian smiled at the Dragonian.

“Are you going to be the only one who cares about me?”

It is clear that Leah’s reaction was delayed.

But even then, the difference wasn’t that big.

It was only that she couldn’t react to the Dragonian’s attack by a narrow margin, but Leia realized it too belatedly and pulled out her sword.

And that could be said like this.

Leah’s sword, which no longer needed to defend, said that the only thing it could do was attack.

“!?”

It seemed that he belatedly realized the existence of the missing Leah, but as if to inform that it was already too late, there was a sword piercing the chest of the dragonian.

A stream of blood flowed from the dragonian’s mouth.

‘uh… Did I just tell you?’

There is no way to know if it was actually because of Xian’s words, but for some reason Leah’s sword, which was supposed to be aimed at the heart, missed by about two inches.

Drenched in pain, the Dragonian swung his arm violently.

“ostrich!”

When the inserted sword did not come off, Leah, who could not retreat, had no choice but to let go of the sword and retreat.

If I had been a little late, my neck would have fallen.

“ha… ha… .”

Even though it only moved for a moment, Xian stood in front of Leah, who seemed to be out of breath.

“what… Are you okay?”

“… … .”

I couldn’t even say a word, so it seemed hard to expect help.

Xian focused all his attention on the Dragonian.

‘Now I have no choice but to do it.’

Fortunately, the Dragonian was mortally wounded.

I just missed my heart.

Just being pierced through the chest was a pretty big slander.

‘Let’s do that…’ .’

Now was the time to use the non-spirituality that Drake had taught me.

The basic principle of Operation Bondi is to keep the Dragonians at bay until Drake arrives.

But now, it seemed like it would be worthwhile to go on the offensive.

‘But then I see… ?’

There was one thought that suddenly stopped Xian, who was about to use non-shot.

There was something strange.

The distance between the front row and the back row is about 300M.

It was a distance that Drake could cover in a single moment.

But he still doesn’t see a shadow.

Koo Goo Goo.

It was at that moment that an explosion echoed through the valley.

It was clear that something had probably happened over there as well.

And it was at this time that the Dragonian moved.

‘Oops… .’

The Dragonian didn’t miss the moment when Xian’s nerves were focused on the excessive drinking.

Xian, who was trying to counter the belated attack, was momentarily dumbfounded.

It was none other than the reason why the Dragonian gave up the attack and ran away.

‘Looks like I can’t expect anything from Drake.’

Even so, I couldn’t let him go like this.

If you don’t deal with him this time, you don’t know what the guy who passed the crisis will do next.

‘I handle it.’

It was when Xian was trying to chase the Dragonian.

“for a moment… !”

“… … .”

Leah called Xian to her.

“Take me too.”

what is that…

It wasn’t something a guy who couldn’t even move his body would say.

However, Leah still got up.

Leah also seemed to know what was going on.

That he couldn’t expect help from Drake, and that he had to deal with the Dragonians now.

He was even the owner of the poison that afflicted him, so his fighting spirit would boil.

“Can you run?”

What matters is, of course, Leah’s physical condition.

I was still out of breath, it seemed like I used too much stamina in the previous fight.

It seemed impossible to pursue with that body.

And sure enough…

Leah’s answer was no.

“no.”

“Then wait… .”

“It might be dangerous for you alone. Hurry up and miss it!”

Although the distance was already quite wide, the speed of escape was slow due to the wounds, and the fog did not seem to be doing its job.

Shian, who hesitated, put Leah on his back and started running.

‘Is the injury bigger than I thought?’

His speed was quite slow.

There were even bloodstains on the floor, so I didn’t have to worry about missing it.

Because of the fog, you can’t see him yet, but his energy gradually gets closer.

‘Did I give up?’

The chase continued for about 10 minutes.

The boy’s movements stopped.

Xian dropped off Leah in preparation for an unexpected situation.

When Leah took out the emergency dagger from her waist and finished preparing, Xian entered slowly.

“lake… is it?”

The Dragonian stood still in front of a small lake.

As if waiting for Xi’an to come.

The abnormal situation stimulated Xi’an’s vigilance.

‘what? why… .’

Nothing has changed.

But for some reason, Xian suddenly felt ominous.

Perhaps it was because his expression was too relaxed.

The guy who had pulled out the sword stuck in his chest proudly laughed at the bleeding chest.

“I didn’t know that you would really come after me… .”

I can’t reveal my anxious inner thoughts.

Xian showed off his composure as well.

“Because chasing prey is the instinct of a beast.”

The Dragonian laughed.

I could feel the guy’s feelings of being ridiculous.

“Are you saying I’m the prey?”

“I would say no… .”

A change came the moment a fishy smile formed on his lips.
