chapter 525
525 – Side story) Revealing the identity
“”… … .””
A new home that should be bustling with excitement and celebration of independence and moving.
There was silence in Jeon So-rim’s house.
Just like before you move in.
No one could easily open their mouth first.
They were busy looking at each other in silence as they looked at the Chinese food with all the noodles in it. As expected, everyone was just confused about the current situation.
“Okay… … .”
What’s worse is that even Leylin, who always showed off her cheerful personality, was keeping an eye on Seong Ji-hoon.
“that… … . How did you two meet? “What on earth happened out there?”
Seong Ji-hoon, unable to bear it any longer, moves his mouth.
Because nothing would be solved if it stayed like this.
He realized that there was no other way than attacking head-on.
“Well, if I were to explain in detail from the beginning, actually… … . “There was an attack by a gunman.”
Jeon So-rim also mustered up the courage to answer.
While looking at Leylin sitting next to me.
She intended to explain everything step by step from the beginning.
“what? Suddenly something strange… … ?”
“There was a guy downstairs rummaging through my bag. “He even boldly ran away with the bag.”
“You couldn’t believe you followed that—”
“huh. Of course I chased after it to catch it. I don’t even know if it’s someone with a knife… … .”
“Huh… ? Well, that’s why the siren sound earlier… … . Well, is it okay anyway!? “Are you hurt anywhere?”
“huh. Thanks to this sister, I’m fine. He suddenly appeared and helped me. With his miraculous power, he overpowered the monster and even flew to the sky… … .”
Jeon So-rim slowly raises his head and looks at Raylin. With a look in his eyes that still doesn’t know what her identity is.
I was definitely grateful that he helped me, but
On the one hand, I had no choice but to be cautious.
No matter how I looked at it, it didn’t seem like an ordinary being.
This woman… what is her true identity?
And what is your relationship with Jihoon?
Looking at it again, there’s something strange about the pointed teeth too!
‘like… … . ‘It feels like I’m something other than a human!’
Jeon So-rim just screamed inside.
Because I saw what happened to the gunman.
She was hiding her emotions as much as possible so as not to offend Leylin.
“Ha.. I wonder if I should call this fortunate or embarrassing… … .”
Seong Ji-hoon, who heard all of Jeon So-rim’s story, sighs loudly and reveals his complicated feelings. He glared at Leylin, who broke his promise.
“Ehehehehe… … .”
At this, Leylin could only let out a sheepish smile. Because I didn’t know that I would get caught like this.
I was at a loss as to what to do, looking at the human’s thoughts on the subject of the dragon. It’s like sitting on a thorn cushion.
“No matter what, I sincerely thank you for saving Sorim, sister.”
“How come..? Please forgive me, you little girl… … ?”
“Not completely. “If you break a promise, you break it.”
“Well, that can’t be possible…” … ?”
“Anyway, I’ll think about that later… … . “Did you tell Sorim your identity?”
Seong Ji-hoon asks a question with a liberated expression.
His mind was more complicated than ever.
No matter how hard I rack my brain, I can’t come up with an answer as to how to explain it.
“Oh, no. yet… ! Even if you tell the humans here, it won’t be of any use… … . So I just told her she was your sister.”
“Whoa, this isn’t easy… … .”
… … .
Once again, heavy silence follows.
Derke also remained silent.
Part of me wanted to ask if it would be okay to just return Jeon So-rim’s memories to a state of nothingness, but first I waited for Seong Ji-hoon’s judgment.
Above all, Jeon So-rim was his friend.
“… Ji, Jihoon? Be honest with me! “What on earth is this person?”
“Shaolin?”
“And this sister…is she also related to Derke? yes-!?”
“… … .”
This time, Jeon So-rim opens her mouth first.
By asking questions directly.
She could feel it intuitively.
Derke is also an unusual being.
As expected, Derke and Leylin seemed very familiar with each other. As if we had known each other since the beginning.
“I can’t help it. It would be pointless to lie any longer… … . “I’ll tell you everything.”
“Is that true?”
“okay. Derke and Laylin… … . “I am not as ordinary as you felt.”
“Then what on earth is it? Super powers? Or a vampire-like mutant… … ?!”
Jeon So-rim suggests a plausible possibility and urges an answer. But all of her guesses were wrong.
“It’s not like that. I don’t know if you’ll believe me… … .”
“I’m fine, just tell me. “I will believe it.”
“… Huh, actually those two. “It’s a dragon.”
“Well, what… ?”
Jeon So-rim looks so confused that it makes no sense that she just said she would believe what Seong Ji-hoon said.
“… I guess I heard wrong now, right? Looking at a person and saying it’s a dragon… … ?”
“You heard correctly. “Actually, they are both dragons.”
“Don’t talk nonsense…” ! How can a dragon look like a human? “Are you saying you actually used magic?!”
Jeon So-rim could not easily accept the truth. Because I didn’t understand it through common sense.
Although I felt it looked unrealistic,
In fact, it was actually a dragon… … .
It was a story that was difficult to understand on Earth, which is far from magic.
“That’s right, he takes on human form with magical powers.”
“Now you want me to believe such nonsense… … .”
“Sister Shaolin? “Would you believe it if you saw this?”
“Derke?”
At that time, Derke joins the conversation.
The guy shows a face that has made up his mind.
And then he made eye contact with Jeon So-rim… … .
ㅡSssuseut… !
“Ah..? Wow, horns suddenly sprouted… … ?!?!”
It was like that.
Some of the polymorphs were lifted.
Green horns that look like bamboo shoots sprout from Derke’s head in real time.
“Now, I’ll show you properly what happened.”
In response, Leylin also stepped in to help. To prove that he is a dragon.
-Paaah!
Raylin suddenly stretches out her hand forward.
She concentrates her magic in her palm.
And not long after that… … .
-Help… !!!
A bright crimson flame rises.
“Sweetheart, flames appear from the palm of your hand…” … ?”
“that’s right. “With this power, I punished that thief earlier!”
“I can not believe it… … . Am I really dreaming… … ?”
But somehow, the more he proved that he was a dragon, the more Jeon So-rim denied reality.
“Shaolin? This is not a dream. Of course, if you are very confused, you can make it like a dream… … . “I don’t want to force you to do something like that.”
“what? What does that mean… … . Ha, no. “Don’t explain any more.”
“Jeon So-rim… … .”
“That’s it, you guys..! If it’s really a dragon, why don’t you show the whole thing instead of just a part of it? Then I will believe you!”
“How come..? If I did that, the house would collapse… … ?”
“Sister Shaolin, then how about this?”
Derke raises his index finger and gestures to Jeon So-rim, who still cannot accept reality. With a face that says you might believe me if this is the case.
ㅡWhirik! Swish… !
Let Derke gesture into the air like that.
「Nyorolong… … ?」
A translucent ghost suddenly pops out in front of Jeon So-rim’s face.
And at the same time… … .
“
Kyaaah! Ears, ghosts… … ?!?!
”
A scream came out of Jeon So-rim’s mouth.
ㅡSharply… !
At the same time, Jeon So-rim screams and falls down.
As soon as I saw the ghost, I immediately fainted.
“… Tsk, what Shaolin is most afraid of is ghosts.”
“Huh..? That’s the real Death Dragon… ? Derke just wanted to clearly show that he was a dragon… … .”
“Whoa, this is like mountains beyond mountains.”
Seong Ji-hoon just shook his head as if he was embarrassed.
***
“Hmm..! My head… … .”
I open my eyes with a heavy headache.
I guess I dozed off for a while.
He must have been very tired because he was moving early in the morning.
‘Well then… … ! ‘It was a dream after all?’
A monster, a dragon, and a ghost… … ?
Now that I think about it again, it’s not even funny.
It was a really bad nightmare.
How tired did you have to be to have a dream like this? It was nice that Jihoon came out too… … .
Anyway, I have to get up quickly.
But since when have I been sleeping?
Let’s come to our senses before Jihoon comes.
ㅡRustly… !
It was when I struggled to get up, reflecting on my confused mind.
“Whoa…” ! You woke up early? After all, you have a healthier body than other humans?”
“Sister Shaolin? You were surprised earlier, right? sorry..! I wasn’t suddenly summoning a ghost… … .”
“Haaa..? Wow, it wasn’t a dream… … ?!”
When I opened my eyes, Derke and Leylin, who claimed to be dragons, turned to face me.
It seems that they moved me to the room after I passed out.
“I understand it’s hard to believe, but it’s definitely not a dream.”
“that’s right. that’s right. Still, do you want to be safe? “We are not hostile beings.”
“Well, more than that, Jihoon… … ?”
“Jihoon? Oh, Kamangi is cooking outside to make something for you.”
“that’s right. She said she seemed to have lost a lot of energy and was cooking something hard… … .”
“Ah… … ?”
I looked around and saw that it was still my room. There was a fragrant smell coming from outside.
Now that this has happened, I need to clearly point out what needs to be pointed out.
“excuse me… … . I’m asking this again just in case, but are you both really dragons? … ?”
“That’s right. “I am Leylin of the Flame Clan.”
“I am Derke, of the clan of death! “Please feel free to call me by my first name, Sorim unnie!”
“yes..? A clan of death in flames… … .”
I think this is real.
I was hoping for a hidden camera or something.
I have to ask everything I’m curious about because this has come to this.
“… Ah, I get it. I will believe the two people who say they are dragons. “But what on earth is Dragon’s relationship with Jihoon?”
“Oh, are we talking about?”
In response to my question, Leylin grins, flashing her shark teeth. As if they were asking such an obvious thing.
Derke had the same reaction.
He looks at me and smiles brightly.
As if he was itching to show off something.
“not a big deal. “We are albino’s companions.”
“Well, Derke is also your brother’s wife!”
“Ha ha ha ha ha… ? What kind of nonsense… … .”
ㅡSharp!
Oh, that won’t work. I have to faint a little longer and wake up.
I hope it’s a real dream this time… … .
