I Became the Son of an Evil Dragon

92 – Tilted Balance (2)

“Uuuuu…!!!”

I laughed while crying.

Her eyes were squinted and her mouth was forced up.

Then, when my eyes opened brightly.

“…Please let go, Mom.”

“Oh, how everything is abandoning me.

Because you, who had become everything, said you were going to leave me – haha, haha…!!’

The fur-covered tail once again revealed its scales,

The slow unfolding of a mother’s wings tells us one thing.

Before the hand that grabbed me rose to the sky, I opened my mouth.

“Who-ah?!”

“You have someone else.

I don’t have any. I am I only have you!!! “

Use your strength to push me, push me down,

Even as tears fell, love was no longer visible on the smiling face of her.

It was just as my sister said.

Mom may have just seen me as a treasure.

“I didn’t mean to let you go out.

You had to hold me back when you tried to leave me.

…If I had known it would end up like this, I shouldn’t have taught you about the outside world.”

“Ugh, ugh!”

Even if I knew that, nothing would change.

Mom was strong. More than me, and more than my sister.

Because it was a dragon.

Able to fly in the sky, breathe fire, and turn people into ashes with one breath.

“I’m sorry.

But, that woman can live without you.

For the first few days, they will cry and cry and make a fuss, demanding that you be taken away.”

Even as she sobbed, her voice was becoming stronger.

Even though her body and hands were shaking, her face was gradually forming a smile.

“But after that? As time passes, as the years go by –

What if you realize that there is a gap that can’t be caught up with just a dog’s body?

…All humans are the same. The world outside is never kind. “It’s different from what you think.”

Her hand reached toward the window and caught the blazing flame.

He made it so big that it looked like it would make a big hole in the wall, and showed it to me.

“That bitch will eventually forget you. And – I’ll teach you that.

Even if you look at me with those eyes, you will eventually love me.

I will engrave on your body the meaning that you are the only one I have turned away from the world…!”

It was that moment.

A blue chain flew into her mother’s hand.

Sparkling mana wrapped around her wrist her her and-

“Huh-Kuhuhuh!?”

Something similar to the lightning sent by her mother flowed and made her curl her fingers.

The fireball that seemed like it would fly away at any moment disappeared,

The heat that had been warming the room suddenly cooled down like a winter room.

“I knew it would be like this.”

Beyond the broken door was Gella’s sister.

Floating a scroll that emits light in the air,

My sister’s eyes were as blue as a chain as she slowly pulled the iron pole from her waist.

“Russell is not yours?”

Then the other untied hand,

The hand that covered my mouth drew red light from the air.

Turning her sticky thread into a handful of white steam in an instant-

It became a sphere that seemed as if it could be shot at any moment.

“Paha, sister, be careful – “

But before I could finish speaking, another chain flew in and grabbed her mother’s hand.

A sharp scream fills the room once more,

The red light can no longer be found.

“…Dispel, magic must be expensive.

How dare you think that Russell is worth that much?”

“I told you. It’s not yours.

You can’t interfere with what I think of that child.”

She was clearly the older sister who had previously said she had to run away from her mother.

But now, with her eyes wildly open, she took one of her bottles from her belt and poured some of her goo onto the steel bar.

“You said you’re not even a mother. Then… Well, now I like Russell,

It’s not like you can say anything. I told you so. Still don’t understand?”

“As expected, you were trying to punish this child from the beginning.

She should have known from the moment she shook her damn hair so badly…”

The scroll floating in the sky seemed to have prevented her mother from using her magic.

But… She didn’t think it would last long.

As her mother’s horn began to glow red, the chains around her hands began to shake.

“Whether I wag my tail or not, that child doesn’t see you as a girl, so what can I do?”

Even though I saw that dragon, and even though I saw the being I was so afraid of before my eyes,

With her broken door down, her sister placed the paper on her finger and flicked it.

– Rumbling.

Then, a small bolt of lightning struck from the tip of his finger and instantly enveloped the stick.

Like sparks flying, the sound of firewood exploding is crackling –

She poured out blue light in front of her mother’s face.

The older sister, who was holding a weapon for the first time in her life, bared her teeth and growled.

” So, get your hands off Russell right now. “

As much as my mom wants me,

My sister also wanted to have me.

…Why?

“Are you spending the magic you lack with money and scrolls, and now you’re giving it to the dragon?”

“I think there’s something wrong, you’re in my lair.”

With a click, the bag on my waist opened.

And what was pulled out was another bundle of paper.

Unfolded and thrown.

Then, two more chains were wrapped around my mother’s hands.

“You know I’m a demon hunter.

And both you and the demons rely heavily on magic.”

Even from here, I could see that there were a lot of scrolls that my sister had prepared.

It wasn’t in vain that I introduced myself as a demon hunter,

Rather, he was a much greater adventurer than I thought –

My older sister was showing it in front of my mom.

“When my weapons and my tools invade a place full of them,

I brought you a child who was trying to escape from your grasp –

Did you think they would just let me go?”

“Then if we release the polymorph… Ah – ?”

The tail is the same.

Even the wings that were taken out are the same.

And, the horns that mom exposed are the same.

Even in her human form, her mother couldn’t even get her fingernails out of her.

“Using magic is prohibited.

Of course, releasing it is also included.

Don’t even say it out loud. Unless you want to tie her tongue. Oh, I did it.

It would actually be better that way.”

“…You.”

– Pazizik.

Once the baton was swung, a scary sound was heard.

Is it the same type of magic that was tormenting the guard captain?

But the difference is, Mom squirted out of her hand and-

My sister put that lightning into a weapon.

“I don’t want to make an irreversible choice.

If I start antagonizing you here… The moment this scroll is over, you will kill me.

Then what will happen to Russell…

Are you going to be very sad? Because my sister died?”

“Oh, that’s – “

Hate. I hated it.

He said he would help me with what I wanted to do,

I couldn’t watch my older sister, who approached me so kindly, disappear.

“I guess you don’t like it. Be happy.”

“…You…Have only known Russell for a few days…

It’s not fair. It’s unfair, how can this happen…!!”

But that one word makes her mother hurt,

She made her her body her write her and cry out.

Hot breath is spit out from the open mouth along with spit –

The sadness flowing from his eyes showed no sign of stopping.

…I couldn’t cover that up.

Once I accepted it, things spread like this.

“Mom… She just keeps stopping me from doing what I want to do.”

So, I thought it would be a good idea to get my older sister’s help to stop her mother.

Even if his face is full of sadness right now,

So that everyone can smile later.

“Because I know that the things you want to do will only hurt you!”

“I haven’t even tried it.

“I’ve never even properly started this adventure!”

At best, she caught the demons in that village with her mother’s help.

And then when the monster attacks, run away… And that’s the end.

I couldn’t call this an adventure.

Just setting foot in one village couldn’t have been a great story.

No other novel ended the story this way.

“Who helped you get away from women with dirty hearts?

Who gave you the power to subdue the demons and save the people?

What taught and raised you to have that kind of mindset in the first place?!”

“It’s mom, that’s why she said she loves her!

Even though she didn’t give birth to me, she thought of me more as a mother than as my ‘mother’!”

And I stopped crying too.

Because it was frustrating.

No matter how many times I say it, I feel so sad about where I am now.

I was able to stand where I am now thanks to the help of my older sister.

“…You made a wish on me.

My wish to become family.”

And finally, did we reach it?

No matter how many times I asked for something or how many times I wanted it, my heart kept going astray,

Has it finally reached my mother?

“I came to know through the time I spent with you that it had already become my wish.

What I thought was just a child’s desperate wish,

I realized too late that it was no different from mine, having been abandoned by my family.”

The light from the horn slowly begins to go out,

The scroll, which seemed like it was about to break, was barely hanging in the air and fluttering.

“…But I never,

I never promised to be your only mother.”

I thought the next words would be the end.

The calmly closed lips approached me in an instant and collided with me.

The hand that tried to push away was caught with clasped hands.

My struggling body couldn’t overcome my mother who was bigger than me.

“Russell?! You, you – “

Then the older sister immediately tried to run over, but instead her mother raised her head slightly and-

She smiled as she traced her lips with her tongue.

“Be careful. Lightning hurts everything it touches.”

“Uh, ah…”

Her hand did not fall.

Her mother’s eyes she didn’t leave me either.

Rather than pointing towards her sister her her her her her her her her her her her her her her her her her her her her just crawled into my arms and waggled.

“…If you’re going to drop it, try dropping it.

And Russell, I love you.

No matter what you think of me… I will love you.”

The mother’s eyes turned dark as she said that.

The yellow eyes, like the brightly burning sun, had disappeared.

“Even if you push me away, even if you hate me… I will always be by your side.

If you want to do whatever you want, that’s okay.

If you want to go on an adventure and meet people, you can do that.

But you will always be with me.”

The arms I was about to drop embraced me.

Even though I didn’t approach, even though it wasn’t my outstretched hand,

Mom caught me.

Very strong.
