Became a Hatchling of the Grand Duke of the North

13 – One Guardian Dragon, Two Saints (3)

That night.

Han did not sleep for a long time even after the sun had set.

Originally, it was time to go to sleep.

But somehow, it feels strange to fall asleep.

I feel like I’m itching somewhere.

It is as if you can feel the flow of the atmosphere shaking around you.

Every time he inhaled and exhaled, he could clearly feel the breath around him.

‘Can you feel my breath? It’s kind of a strange feeling.’

Of course, there are things I have experienced so far.

I was in a state of holding onto the reason to some extent. That this is by no means a mere fleeting illusion.

‘Status window.’

ㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡ

[Status window.]

Name: Guardian Han

Type: Holy Beast White Dragon (Hatchling Stage)

Characteristics:

– Shiny mania: Dragons prefer gold and silver treasures above all else.

– Dragon Scales : Dragon scales have a special magical energy than anything else. Scales that grow over a lifetime, only one scale grows at a time.

– Ice attribute power (F grade): It is a power that handles some of the attributes of the natural world.

– Magical Power: You will be able to more directly utilize the energy stored in all things, such as objects and bodies.

ㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡ

In the meantime, a new trait has been added.

Magic power.

It is the power of origin that exists in all things, including all beings and things in the world.

From the air to the sea to the earth.

It exists everywhere and can be found everywhere at the same time.

It is the most fundamental energy of life.

But on the other hand, if you look at it from a slightly wider perspective, it was similar to the ice elemental power, another power given to Han.

Because he was also the power of the natural world, the ability to deal with cold.

However, let me explain in a more straightforward way.

It is also the power that wizards draw to use magic.

Han remembered the moment he had obtained it out of the blue.

Perhaps the moment you agreed to the contract, this trait appeared as if you had been waiting for it.

‘Originally, dragons are said to be a species specialized in magic. Could this be it?’

I knew it to some extent.

It’s not a subspecies of dragons, such as drakes and wyverns, that lack some sense and only have instincts.

Some entities with clear intellect, such as Han, somehow manipulate magical powers and invoke magic.

As there are awakened people and magical powers in this world, Han thought that it would not be very different from the existing common sense he knew.

‘Then magic also exists. Just like in my original world.’

If magic exists and monsters exist, it is only natural that there will also be wizards who use them to deal with them.

By accepting that contract, he must have entered this realm.

Perhaps the fire dragon is familiar with fire magic.

As long as he belonged to Bingryong, he could easily infer that he would be familiar with ice magic.

‘Wait a minute.’

Then I suddenly had an idea.

He jumped up reflexively.

Han’s two bulging pupils began to shake as if an earthquake had struck.

The jaw opened on its own, not knowing how to close, it opened in a daze.

‘Th-that means… I can use magic now?’

A question is answered by solving it.

So Han immediately decided to try it out.

He used his magic to move. He

Focused his mind and began to gather it around his wing.

This is not the first time. It was something he was used to.

Even in his previous life as an Awakener, Han knew a little about the basics of moving mana. A little, of course.

Whoop-.

Soon after, a breeze began to arise around Han.

Little by little, his body began to emerge.

Han’s little forepaw finally lifted off the ground and rose slightly.

Han’s eyes widened at that sight.

‘Oh, oh oh?’

Floating! Comes to mind!

Han’s small body was slowly rising up into the sky with the cold wind blowing around him.

But.

Somehow, something was strange.

‘…?’

I remembered, but I remembered.

But no matter how much I concentrated, only his front feet came to mind.

I couldn’t recall his entire body.

‘Oh, is the back a bit heavier than the front?’

Thinking that way, I focused my mind by shifting my center of gravity a little to the back.

This time his back leg rose, and the front leg landed on the floor again.

It was the same even after Han raised his mana and concentrated his mind.

When the front rises, the back hip sinks, and when you focus on the back again, the front sinks.

[…]

Within a moment, Han, who had been silent, quietly folded his spread wings again.

That’s right.

Anyway, he’s a newborn baby, so does he have the ability to reach that level?

‘It’s done. Let’s just go and get some sleep.’

Because of this, Han calmly set aside the emotion of the moment,

I went back to my cushion and lay down again.

The emotion of awakening his magical power was only momentary.

It was a really insignificant force.

What would you do if you were given the power to use magic?

Because he is young and small, he lacks that magic.

This was rather a clumsy amount of magical energy that was worse than that of an F-class Awakener in the previous life.

The next day.

Since early in the morning, the inside of the castle has been busy.

Morning is also the busiest time for maids.

I had to prepare breakfast for the numerous family members living in the castle, and at the same time, I had to deal with the laundry accumulated during the night.

Because of their nature, they usually do all sorts of miscellaneous things in the castle.

I was very busy during this time.

However, there is joy even in hardships, and there was a young maid who chatted happily even in the middle of this.

“By the way, has everyone heard the news?”

A charming young maid with big eyes, you said to her fellow maid next to her.

At that, Milene, her fellow maid, smiled.

She asked with an expression that seemed like she couldn’t understand.

“Whoa, Lady Lucia and Her Highness?”

“Ah, what is it? I guess you already know?”

“Rumors have already spread around the castle! My God, one guardian dragon and two saints!”

She put her hands together as if in prayer and her eyes lit up, knowing what was so touching.

“This must go down in the history of the empire for a long time, right? It must be a major turning point in history!”

But I think the conversation between the two was a bit loud.

Even during a busy day, the maid appeared in the kitchen to check the morning, and Yone and Milene were caught talking happily.

“There! Everyone, stop talking and focus on preparing the meal! Isn’t it meal time for the Grand Duke and Lady Lucia in a while!”

“Ah, yes!”

“And Yone, from now on you will serve the finished dishes to the table first! Now, His Highness the Grand Duke is descending!”

“Oh, already?”

Panting at the sound, she wiped herself dry and asked her own colleague Milene to pardon her.

“Sorry, I’m going up to get a meal first!”

“It’s okay. Because I am here.”

“Thank you!”

Yone got out of his seat with such vigor.

Then, as Yone was leaving the kitchen with breakfast, he saw a familiar man in his eyes.

“Ah, Chief Garcion!”

“Hmm?”

Garcion, the head of the house, who was busy moving her steps, turned her head to her.

He greeted her with her usual bright smile.

“Ah. It’s Yonero. Did you sleep well?”

“Ehehehe. Yes.”

The way he treats himself gently.

Yone smiled shyly, blushing at her.

The head butler, Garcion, is in charge of the small and large affairs of this castle.

He was also the person Yone cared about the most lately.

Somehow, as if I was ashamed of something,

“Yeah, but maybe the butler…”

Seeing Yone hesitate to speak and begin twisting his body.

Garcion, the owner of the house, raised his wrist to check the time, then raised his hand to block it.

“Ah, I’m sorry, but if there is something to see, I’ll do it later. You are a bit busy right now.”

“Is that so?”

“Yes. As you must have heard the news yesterday, the contract with Guardian Dragon has been concluded. I’ll have to go send a telegram to the empire right away.”

“Ah… Yes.”

All of a sudden, Yone’s expression turned sullen.

Garcion, who didn’t notice the fact because he was hectic in the middle of the day, turned around busily.

He had no time to rest since morning.

As soon as he woke up, he had to face the Archduke of Lucrezia, and now he had to report what had happened the night before to the capital of the Empire.

As the report will probably be read by the emperor who rules this vast continent, he shouldn’t have made a single mistake.

Han, the last contract dragon born on the Pangea continent.

Since the guardian dragon was the most important thing that would lead the world situation, we had to know everything about it without omission.
