Shut Up Dragon! I Don't Want To Have Children With You Anymore

After a round, Rossweisse sat on the desk, her nightgown draped casually over her body, thin straps slipping off precariously, her fragrant shoulders alluring.

She lowered her eyes to look at the tip of her tail, her eyebrows furrowing slightly.

But then she snorted coldly. She'd just have Leon be her "foot-washing slave" again later.

Thinking this, Rossweisse lifted her head to look at Leon in front of her. The dragon slayer rested his hands on the armrests of the chair, staring blankly at the ceiling, as if contemplating life.

The queen's thoughts stirred. She slowly raised her delicate, fair jade foot and lightly stepped on the dragon pattern on Leon's chest.

The resonance reaction of the dragon pattern was gradually fading, as if a few faint blue arcs of light flickered across it.

Rossweisse raised an eyebrow, "What's that?"

"What?"

"The light on the dragon pattern.", Rossweisse lifted her beautiful chin towards his chest, "Why is it blue?"

Leon glanced down and reached out to grasp Rossweisse's slender ankle, moving her soft foot away from his chest.

Sure enough, the dragon pattern glowed faintly with blue arcs, but in just a moment, all the light vanished.

Rossweisse shook off his hand and placed her foot back on his chest, "You don't know either?"

Leon pressed his lips together.

Actually, he did know.

That was the magic he had been storing in the dragon pattern these past few days.

After all the tossing around, the magic mixed with the dragon pattern's properties, which caused the blue glow.

And Leon suspected that, regardless of the method, as long as the dragon pattern was involved, the magic he "offered" to it would always be consumed.

Leon tried sensing it. His power had indeed decreased somewhat, but fortunately, not entirely. That gave him some sense of balance.

"Maybe it lost control again. This thing lost control once before in the hot spring, didn't it?", Leon came up with a reasonable-sounding excuse.

Rossweisse nodded thoughtfully, "I see… But this time, the loss of control wasn't bad."

Leon was startled, "Not bad?"

"Yes. Normally, if we don't follow the usual steps, and only use the tail, there shouldn't be any sensation at all."

Rossweisse reminisced about what just happened and then said, "But I felt… pretty good. Tingly, numb, and, hmm, comfortable."

Leon rolled his eyes at her.

'Mother dragon, do you know why you felt that way?'

'Because that was all high-grade lightning-element magic!'

'Do you really think just a tiny dragon pattern alone could make you feel like that?'

'Keep dreaming.'

Rossweisse bit her lip, her warm foot slowly trailing down Leon's chest.

Just as it reached his abdomen, Leon caught her ankle in time, "What are you doing?"

Rossweisse tilted her head slightly and teasingly asked, "You broke into my bedroom in the middle of the night. Do you think one punishment is enough?"

Since the previous "method" was simple and didn't follow the usual full "submission process," both of them still had plenty of energy left.

And clearly, whether it was to punish Leon or for some other reason, Rossweisse was not yet satisfied and wanted another round.

This time, she planned to use her foot.

Leon thought, 'No way, not again! I have finally accumulated some magical energy—I need to use it wisely.'

"Enough is enough, Mother Dragon. You're pregnant.", Leon brought up the pregnancy, trying to rein her in.

Rossweisse propped herself up with her hands, leaning back slightly, "So what? I didn't force you to get into bed with me."

Leon's eyes flickered. He quickly responded, "I mean, it's almost four in the morning. Pregnant women shouldn't stay up late."

That excuse was actually pretty good. Rossweisse had no immediate rebuttal.

But she wasn't about to let Leon off so easily, "Fine, we'll stop. But you have to tell me—why did you come to my room?"

The question was back to square one.

Leon could tell—if he didn't come up with a perfect reason today, Rossweisse wouldn't let him leave.

After some thought, Leon decided to play the "family card"—even though he and this mother dragon had no actual familial bond.

But when there were no better options, emotional appeal was always a solid choice.

"I was… worried about you, so I came to check if you were sleeping well.", Leon gazed deeply into Rossweisse's eyes.

Rossweisse froze, "Worried about me?"

"Yeah, you're pregnant now, your body isn't always comfortable. Even though we don't always get along, I can see the bigger picture. Right now, you're the most important part of our family, so our personal grudges can wait."

In just a few sentences, Leon had packaged himself as a high-quality, selfless human male.

'Ha, let's see if this doesn't move you to tears.'

Rossweisse covered her mouth with both hands, staring at Leon, her silver eyes trembling slightly, as if she wanted to say something.

Leon saw her reaction and knew his random excuse had worked. So he pressed on.

"I know you must feel the same way, right? We're the same—we both love this family. And now, I'm just shifting my concern for this family onto you, Rossweisse. I care about you."

"Leon…", Her voice was muffled as she kept covering her mouth.

"Hm?"

'Are you touched? Are you touched? Are you touched?'

'You're about to cry, right?'

'Don't cry, or—'

"I want to puke.", Rossweisse said.

"…Preg—pregnancy nausea?"

"No, I mean I'm disgusted by you."

Rossweisse closed her eyes, swallowed hard, and then exhaled softly, her expression finally relaxing, "Phew… Alright, continue."

"…?"

'Wait, Mother Dragon, what's wrong with you? Human high-quality males don't move you at all?'

'Is your heart made of granite? Not even a little bit touched?'

'Oh…', Leon suddenly understood.

'She's a dragon. Human high-quality tactics don't work on her.'

Rossweisse tilted her head slightly, enjoying Leon's helpless expression, then smiled and said,

"You… really care about me?"

Leon blinked. This felt ominous, "Uh… Actually, not that much… Definitely not as much as you think."

"Oh? If you don't care that much, why sneak into my room? That's a serious crime.", Rossweisse circled back, slow and deliberate.

"…Fine, I care. I care, alright?"

"How much?"

"Do you really have to press this?"

Rossweisse had seen through Leon's little scheme, so now she was teasing him like a girl pestering her boyfriend with, "Do you love me or not?"

Leon realized this and simply stopped responding.

Rossweisse smiled faintly, then removed her foot from Leon's abs. Her tone grew serious.

"Leon, I'm lifting your house arrest now. You're free to come and go from the Silver Dragon Sanctuary—and even my bedroom—but that's only because it makes things more convenient with Luna. That doesn't mean you can sneak into my room at night. Understand?"

Leon raised his hand, "Punish me however you want."

Being caught in the act, he had nothing to say. No matter how stubborn he was, facts were facts.

"Hmph. Punish you? I'll have plenty of chances later."

Rossweisse hopped off the desk, adjusted her nightgown straps, then walked up to Leon and leaned in, poking his chest with a finger.

"From now on, sleep in your own room. After 7 PM, you are absolutely not allowed in my bedroom. Otherwise… you know what I'll do, right, dear prisoner?"

———

"I suggest you two live together."

Less than twenty-four hours after the Silver Dragon Queen sentenced the war captive, Leon Casmod, with the house rule of "No entering my room after seven o'clock," their eldest daughter, Noah, made the above suggestion.

Rossweise thought to herself, 'Baby, you're just over a year old, and you're already contradicting your mother? What, are you planning to seize the throne?'

And the story has to start from ten minutes ago.

.

.

.

Today is Friday, and Noah came home from Saint Heath Academy after school.

After the two sisters had their bonding time, it was time for their weekly family dinner for the four of them.

When the couple confirmed the second pregnancy earlier, they had already planned to inform their two daughters about it.

So, at the dinner table, the two exchanged a glance and then gave each other an almost imperceptible nod.

This was the signal to start the plan.

As per their prior discussion, they would begin by "working on" Luna.

"Luna.", Leon softly called his younger daughter's name.

The ahoge dragon girl lifted her head from the delicious steak, with a bit of meat still stuck at the corner of her mouth, "What's up, Daddy?"

"Your sister has to go to school now and isn't home most of the time. Sometimes, Mommy and Daddy have things to do too. Do you ever feel like there's no one to play with and get bored?"

Luna held her knife and fork in her little hands, blinking her big, pretty eyes. After a short pause, the little one replied, "Nope."

The couple froze.

'Huh? That's not right. Weren't you supposed to say, "Luna is so lonely. I really wish someone could play with me. Waaaah~"?'

'That way, Daddy and Mommy could naturally justify having another baby brother or sister for you.'

Although Luna's response was beyond Leon and Rossweise's expectations, they still followed the principle of respecting their daughter and asked her why.

Luna answered, "Daddy, Mommy, and Sister all have things to do and can't always play with Luna. Luna understands, so I don't feel lonely. I'll just wait until you're done, then I'll come find you."

'So mature! More sensible than 99% of one-year-olds worldwide.'

'But, baby, this is the one time you really don't need to be so understanding.'

'Daddy and Mommy really want to give you a new little playmate.'

Seeing that the first plan failed, the couple immediately switched to the second strategy without missing a beat.

"Then, Luna, if possible, would you like to add some... other family members to our home?"

Upon hearing this, Noah also looked up.

The clever dragon girl had already guessed what Mom and Dad were about to say, but she didn't expose them.

After all, it seemed like they were starting with Luna first and hadn't gotten to her yet.

So, she decided to quietly eat her meal and observe the situation, watching to see what kind of tricks her parents would pull off.

Luna tilted her head and murmured, "New family members?... Sure, sure!"

Leon and Rossweise's eyes lit up.

'There's hope!'

But before Rossweise could ask Luna whether she wanted a little sister or a little brother, she heard Luna excitedly add,"Luna has wanted a pet slime for a long time! Daddy, Mommy, are you getting Luna a slime?"

"Pfft—cough, cough~ cough—", Noah choked on the water she had just sipped at her little sister's words.

Luna quickly leaned over to her sister, "Are you okay, Sis?"
