chapter 417
417 – Let’s sleep together
It was a really tiring night.
It was definitely peaceful until evening.
But like a gust of wind, that peaceful daily life was blown away in an instant.
Because something unexpected suddenly happened.
Originally, I had planned to do some grocery shopping in the evening under Sham’s guidance. To prepare for the cooking competition tomorrow.
But it was never easy.
Because the saboteurs followed us.
To be precise, they approached Siam with the intention of taking his life.
Most of the disruptors were canine beasts. So, he was targeting Siam to avenge his former boss.
It wasn’t even funny.
I was the one who dealt with the boss of the organization.
Those guys who didn’t know about my existence came to aim for Siam’s life.
They were made up of canine beastmen who called themselves hunting dogs.
Everyone was really like a hunting dog.
He didn’t back down from a fight easily.
There were things like that because they were brave guys, but
The fact that their opponent was only a human played a big role.
So, everyone looked at me as a human being and attacked me.
‘But what… … . Was it because I looked down on them that I was able to get rid of them all?’
It was like that.
Tonight I destroyed an organization.
Those who call themselves hunting dogs.
It just so happened that I was able to clean up the guys who were running a drug business in the shadows.
The remnants were completely disposed of.
It wasn’t like he mercilessly cut off his life.
Those who had room for rehabilitation were left behind.
It seemed like it had some use.
I was just trying to protect my pet cat.
Things had gotten quite big.
Thanks to this, I wasted a lot of time.
‘At first, I was just thinking of scaring Siam so that he wouldn’t even come near… … . Well, what do you think? ‘I cleaned up the streets and found the materials I was looking for, so is that a good thing?’
I was tired because it was a night walk, but
In the end, it was a satisfying shopping trip.
Thanks to Siam, I was able to find a store that directly processes and sells various food ingredients.
‘I was lucky. I never thought there would be a store that deals with that on a beach like this… … .’
Siam was also Siamese, but if it weren’t for the original recipe, the ingredients might not have been available.
I was very surprised at first.
It wasn’t the original recipe for nothing.
Because the recipe truly contained memories of the beginning.
I had no idea that just by calling up a specific recipe from the list, the actual appearance and application of the ingredients would come into my mind.
‘If this is the case, you will be able to properly satisfy Sylvian tomorrow, right?’
Anyway, by the way, I was lying in my dorm right now. To be exact, I was trying to completely fall asleep.
‘The room was quiet so I thought I would fall asleep quickly… … . ‘Something feels uncomfortable?’
I feel like I can’t sleep.
It feels like I’m taking a nap.
I couldn’t fall into a deep sleep, like I was dreaming.
Everyone even set up a separate men’s room for me, but it’s not easy to sleep comfortably.
‘however… … . Why do I keep getting chills since a while ago? For some reason, the corners of my mouth feel wet… … .’
For some reason I can’t sleep well.
No, I was sleeping well but woke up in the middle of the night.
Because my whole body suddenly felt cold.
But I was so tired that I couldn’t open my eyes easily.
I just tried to ignore it and sleep.
However, even that did not work out as planned.
That’s right… … .
ㅡToduk..! Pop! Pop!
The water drips beyond the cool chill.
And straight to my face.
It was thick and cold, like rainwater.
“Howum? what is this..? Surely it’s rain… … ?”
“Haaa-! Poetry, the beginning… … ?!”
“huh? what… … ?”
I woke up to the sudden rain and could hardly continue speaking.
I was at a loss for words at the scene that unfolded so suddenly.
“Ouch… … . I’m sorry…! I didn’t mean to wake you up… … !”
“… … ?”
At first I thought it was a dream.
When I open my eyes, Sylvian is looking down at me.
In an awkward posture, lying face down
Moreover, she was shedding big tears while looking at me.
‘Was this not rainwater, but Sylvian’s tears…? ? But why suddenly… … ? ‘Why are you suddenly crying in your sleep?’
ㅡDrop, drop, drop… … !
He looks at me with a very frightened face, and tears fall intermittently.
Even though I woke up, his tears didn’t stop. No, it seemed like he couldn’t stop.
Like a leaky faucet, large droplets of water drip down onto my chin.
“Haaa..! This isn’t tears… ! Sniff! Well, I was lying down and dust got into my eyes… … !”
Sylvian wipes away tears with his sleeve while making lame excuses.
Strangely enough, his tears were quite cold. Usually, tears are heated by body temperature and have a hard time cooling down.
That’s why I thought it was rainwater at first.
I thought it was raining from the roof,
Would you have guessed that Sylvian’s tear ducts had a leak?
“Sylvian? Why are you like this all of a sudden… ? Did something happen while I was sleeping? Maybe a monster appeared… … .”
“Well, it’s not like that… ! I really just got something in my eye… … .”
Sylvian barely holds back tears.
The corners of his eyes are full of moisture.
Her eyes looked like they would burst into tears if you poked her.
“Sylvian? Did I tell you last time? “You don’t lie between friends.”
“Well, it’s not like that… … !”
“Why not? Are you going to lie again?”
“Whoops, ah… My father said that a man should never cry…” ! “I, I never cried—”
“What are you talking about? “You are a woman.”
“Ugh… … ?!”
This guy is speechless at this one word.
Anyway, Sylvian’s sudden behavior made me lose all my sleep. Why was he suddenly crying while looking at my face in the middle of the night?
“Okay, what happened? Tell it to me. “We’re friends, right?”
“Yeah, but… … .”
“Have you forgotten the meaning of friends? I think they made it clear that they were there to give each other strength when they were having troubles… … ?”
“Ugh..? Well, it was like that… … .”
“I’m not forcing it. “I’m doing that because I’m really worried about you.”
“The beginning is worried about me… … ?”
“So Sylvian? Can you tell me without lying? “Why were you crying?”
“i get it. “Yes, I will tell you.”
Sylvian quickly nods in agreement.
This guy… the more I look at him, the more naive he seems.
My first impression was that he was stubborn,
Since we became friends, I couldn’t be this gentle.
“So what? “Why were you crying while looking at my face?”
“Well, that’s actually… … . “I tried to hand over my dragon heart while the beginning was asleep.”
“what… … ?”
“Before the beginning returned, I learned from everyone how to materialize the Dragon Heart. Well, so… Since we were alone together, we decided to practice… … .”
Sylvian trails off with those words.
– Creepy… !
At the same time, I feel a tingling lingering sensation on my lips.
‘ah? For some reason, my lips felt damp… … ?’
Even my lips feel slightly swollen.
Could this be the traces of an incredibly awkward kiss?
Maybe he bit my lip and sucked it to give me the heart while I was sleeping.
“Hmm..! Well, that was it. Anyway, I understand that. “Your feelings for me too.”
“Oh? Do you understand? It’s the beginning… … ?”
“okay. But it’s wrong to do it secretly while you’re sleeping.”
“You have no shame, Sicho…” … .”
“But Sylvian? What were the tears? “What were you crying for?”
“Ugh..! Well, that… … .”
Once again, the horse’s tail becomes blurred.
Even the once pure white complexion becomes blurred.
A black shade falls halfway across her face.
The appearance of dark clouds in the cool weather. I don’t know why, but he seemed very reluctant to talk.
“Ah, I think I know why you were crying.”
“Haaah… … ?”
“I tried it as practice, but it didn’t work out well? yes?”
“Well, how did it start… … ?!”
“How? If it went well, you wouldn’t be crying, right? Besides, there are no changes in my body yet. how is it? “Am I right?”
It was like that.
There has been no change yet.
If Dragon Heart came over,
As soon as I opened my eyes, instead of Sylvian’s face, countless system messages would have been blocking my view.
“Well, that’s… … !”
“Tell me honestly. “We’re friends, right?”
“Aww… … .”
“Sylvian?”
“Yes, actually, it is just as it was said at the beginning. Everyone taught me for a long time, but I had no idea. So I was very angry… I felt deeply disappointed in myself… … .”
Sylvian lowers his head helplessly.
The guy mutters with a disappointed look on his face.
It’s similar to starting to drive on the road right away without a functional test.
Hoping to pass the beginner driver’s test right away… … . Of course, it was bound to fail.
It was a completely natural result.
The level of favorability is still at the level of blind trust.
An oath with a dragon is a contract that can only be made at the worship level.
So, no matter how hard I tried, it was impossible. Moreover, conditional rapport still remained.
“I was crying alone for that reason … … . ”
“I didn’t know I would cry this much … … . I was so scared for a moment. I thought I could finally fulfill my clan’s long-held wish, but I felt so helpless because I couldn’t do anything. And again, I feel ashamed… … . ”
ㅡMumble… … .
Sylvian pours out all his feelings with his head down. It seems like he was genuinely anxious as his words went on for a long time.
“Phew.”
When I see this innocent look, I burst out laughing without even realizing it.
It was amazing that he had such a great heart for me, and he even cried because he couldn’t do what he wanted. It was because I just thought Sylvian’s messy appearance was cute.
“uuut… !? It’s too much, the beginning! I was really serious… … !”
Sylvian gets excited by my laughter.
There were tears on her face again.
Moreover, his whole body was slightly shaking, as if the lingering pain had not yet subsided.
He was shaking like a puppy abandoned on the street.
“I’m still really worried… … . I’m anxious because I think I might not be able to hand over my dragon heart to Sicho if this continues… … . At this rate, I have no reason to meet my ancestors later… … .”
Sylvian is expressing his anxiety again.
The guy looks depressed with a helpless look on his face.
Is this a dragon that really knows nothing about human relationships?
“You know, Sylvian?”
ㅡWow… !
I couldn’t just watch Sylvian like this.
“… Haha? Poetry, the beginning-?! What are you doing now… … !”
Without even realizing it, I ended up holding the guy in my arms who was shaking like a puppy.
The way he was shaking anxiously was cute, but at the same time, it was very pitiful.
“Don’t worry too much. Everything will be okay. So, why don’t you stop thinking negatively and clear your head for a moment?”
“Yes, but handing over the Dragon Heart is an important matter… … .”
“Shh, it’s not as big a problem as you think. “The time hasn’t come yet.”
“The time has never come… … ?”
“Yes, everything will be possible when the time comes, so don’t worry too much.”
“Is that really true? There is a right time… … .”
“Then of course. But more than that… … . Is your body really cold? Is your body temperature usually this low?”
I only hugged him for a moment to soothe him, but a cold chill came through me.
For a moment, my entire body was so cold that I thought I was Sonya.
“no. “Ever since I ate the Hwachae that Sicho made earlier, my whole body has been feeling cool, and I have been maintaining a cold state.”
“ah? Could it be because of the power contained in Hwachae?”
“ability… ? What does that mean, Sicho?”
“Oh, there is something like that. Rather, Sylvian?”
“hmm? “Why are you doing this, Sicho?”
“If you stay like this, you might catch a cold… … .”
ㅡRustly… !
I trailed off and lifted up the blanket.
“… Don’t stay outside the blanket and come in here. “Let’s sleep together.”
“Poetry, poetry, poetry… … ? What now… what… … ?”
