Episode 12. Khan & Kani (1)
Generoker’s words, which followed after a long pause, were truly unexpected.
“… “It looks like this dad won’t be coming home for a while.”
“huh? “How much?”
Usually, dragons raising hatchlings do not stay away from their children for long periods of time.
Because you never know when and where something will happen.
Generoker spoke as if making an excuse, looking at his son’s staring gaze.
“Parents who raise hatchlings are excluded from external activities, but in this case, the father had no choice. Among the dark attribute dragons, there is no dragon with more outstanding abilities than this father… … . Normally, it would take an incredibly long time to take over, but this dad shortened it as much as possible!”
“So how long does it take?”
“Well, I think it will take about 10 years.”
As soon as Generoker’s story ended, Lois’ slightly surprised expression quickly calmed down.
Lois said as if it was no big deal.
“Hey, what is it? “It’ll be soon.”
“… uh?”
“I thought he would come again in a few hundred years. “It will be in about 10 years.”
Lois’s concept of time was now completely attuned to the dragon race.
According to the dragon’s concept of time, which lives for 10,000 years, 10 years was only about a month for a human.
It may be true that she was a completely young Hechling, but it wasn’t much of a problem for Lois, who had gone through the first stage of sleep and turned 250 years old, to spend that much time alone.
No, rather, it was something Lois wanted even more.
‘Good. ‘Let’s take some time for ourselves now!’
Lois’ eyes sparkled brightly.
The house when the parents were away was like a playground for the children.
On the other hand, maybe it wasn’t the reaction he had expected?
Once again, Gene Locker was embarrassed.
“Yeah, right soon, right?”
“I’ve already started martial law theory recently, so I think you’ll come back once you learn this.”
“… … .”
It was Gene Locker who became glum in response to his son’s so calm reaction.
Lois’ eyes narrowed once again when she saw this.
“what? “What about that expression?”
“… … .”
“Oh, you really didn’t expect me to cry and tell you not to go, did you?”
“Well, is there anything else you want to eat?”
“… I’m full.”
“under. under. under.”
Generoker smiled awkwardly in response to Royce’s question.
Despite Lois complaining that she was full, he disappeared to look for something to eat.
At this, Lois burst out laughing.
“I’m really not a kid… … .”
Looking at it objectively, Lois was a tough enough kid.
It’s just that I’m not the only one who thinks that way.
Lois came down from the table, whimpering, leaving behind the missing gene locker.
Lois, who had difficulty getting down from the high table, looked down at her white-white hands and muttered.
“by the way… “You’re really not that tall.”
At the sound of Ae, my stream of consciousness reached my height.
The dragon’s transformation was a blessed power, but it was not omnipotent.
Even when transformed, the size changed to match the original body.
“Hmm… “I eat hard, but why am I not growing?”
Lois now has the body of a 7-year-old child.
Because he needed several times more energy to grow than others, his physical development was bound to be slower than that of hatchlings his age.
“ha… … . Let’s do some training. pin!”
“yes!”
Lois, who quickly gave up on not being able to achieve physical growth as she intended, called Finn in for training.
Lois disappeared to practice at a brisk pace.
Two days passed after that.
* * *
A sunny morning with a red sun rising.
“The elixir is in the refrigerator, so take it without skipping meals just because you’re training. The emergency medicine is in the third drawer of your room. If you get sick, find it and take it. “I wrote down everything on the medicine bottle and what it is used for.”
“… yes.”
“If you need something, you can take it out of Dad’s storage and use it, and if you’re bored, you can use the study to your heart’s content!”
“… all right. Okay, let’s go now. “I’ve been hearing the same thing for an hour now!”
“That’s because I’m worried… … .”
“I’m not your child and we’re only 10 years away, so you don’t have to worry!”
“You’re a kid… … . And that’s just it! “It’s been a whopping 10 years!”
“Okay, so please go! “Elder, will you wait?”
The morning of leaving for Eunhwaseong Fortress.
Generoker stood Lois in front of her and gave her various instructions.
However, as the time gradually became longer, Lois became irritated and pushed Generoker’s back.

“Ah, I understand. I’ll go! Goes!”
Generoker, who had been pushed on his back by Royce, resisted Royce’s push and took out something from his inner pocket.
It was a gem as clear as glass.
Genelocker held it out to Lois.
“Take it.”
“What’s this?”
“It’s a communication seat. “It’s very precious.”
Nature sometimes creates unknown mysteries.
The communication stone was also a kind of mystery created by nature.
“If you imbue a pair of communication stones with elemental power, you can communicate no matter how far away you are!”
“aha! “This is a piece of equipment!”
“okay. “It is a natural product.”
Lois’ eyes lit up when she saw the transparent gem.
‘It’s an artifact!’
A magic item that appears in a novel seen in a previous life.
In this world, they were called objects, and objects were divided into artificial objects and natural objects.
Among them, the value of natural products exceeded common sense.
‘Is this because it is a natural product?’
Lois’s hand as she accepted the communication seat was very careful, knowing its value.
Genelocker, who saw the communication stone in Royce’s hand, took out his own communication stone and showed it.
As he immediately infused elemental power, the communication stone turned black.
In addition, Royce’s communication seat was also black.
“oh! “This is kind of interesting!”
Royce, who was turning the black-stained communication stone around, also infused elemental power into her communication stone.
Royce’s attribute power is colored in four colors: white, black, red, and blue.
Soon, four colors were mixed in the two communication seats and a voice was heard.
-Ah, can you hear me, Lois?
“Oh oh?!”
Lois was amazed by the voice ringing in her head and spoke to the communication table.
-I can hear you.
-Feel so good! Then, if anything happens, be sure to contact me through this!
-But does this have an effective range that reaches into space?
-… … .
-Are you reaching it or not?
-thinking about it… I can’t reach it… … .
Lois clicked her tongue inwardly at Generocker’s dazed voice.
‘I heard that smart people usually do this once or twice… .’
There was no way the dragon was stupid in the first place, and it was impossible for a stupid dragon to reach the level of zero.
However, sometimes Generoker showed off his foolish talents.
Of course, most of it had to do with Lois.
Lois sighed softly and stuffed the communication stone into her pocket.
“It was originally said that no news was good news. “Don’t worry about me and just focus on your work.”
“Ah, I understand. Hehehe.”
Generoker let out a sorrowful groan as the gift he had worked so hard to prepare became useless.
When it seemed like Gene Locker would never leave if left like this, Lois pushed his back again.
“Go to sleep, your son will be fine, so don’t worry and go home! I’m not going anywhere. I’m just going to stay at home and practice! So, if you come to me and say that you want to see me in the middle of the day, I will really hate you.”
“Whoosh!”
“believe. dad!”
“Ah, I understand. “Then go and come back!”
After a long fight, after hearing his father’s voice one more time, Generocker became upset and left for space.
Lois, who spent a day after sending off her anxious father, smiled softly.
Because he also knew very well that Generoker’s actions like that were because he cared about himself.
‘It was my father who protected me while I was in my sleep for 100 years.’
Lois secretly steals Generoker’s parenting diary from his study.
Only then did he realize how he had survived 100 years safely.
‘You stayed by my side for 100 years without even sleeping, so your face couldn’t help but become so gaunt… … .’
Looking at the parenting diary, Generoker had some awareness of the situation he was in.
Therefore, Lois understood Genelocer’s overprotection.
“But this time it was a bit harsh… … .”
Knowing that she would be away for 10 years, Generoker made preparations for Royce’s safety throughout the rare.
I increased the number of guardians several times and walked around the lair for several days to check if there was anything wrong with the barrier.
Generoker put so much effort into it that his rare had already turned into an ironclad fortress for Royce.
Lois smiled at her father’s efforts and stretched widely.
“So I guess I’ll be alone for a while?”
Excluding the sleeping period, I felt empty after being attached for the past 150 years.
But that only lasted a moment.
“It’s been a while since I’ve been alone… … .”
Lois was now at an age where she wanted to enjoy her alone time rather than being looked after.
He grinned as he thought about how he would spend the next 10 years without his father.
“I was in charge of permission, so I went through my father’s treasure trove and read some books… … .”
Lois casually says things that Generoker would have been very upset to hear.
He exclaimed, delighted with his future single life.
“It’s my world now!”
* * *
“… “I thought so.”
It’s been a week since Gene Locker left.
The single life that Lois dreamed of did not last exactly one week.
“ha… … .”
His face was full of irritation as he sighed.
In front of Lois, a girl and a boy who were one head taller than her were running around.
“Pin, pin!”
“Kyahahaha!”
Twin siblings running around trying to catch the flying pins.
The silver hair and turquoise eyes she had been tired of seeing for decades were caught in Lois’s sight.
Along with this, there is a loud noise.
“Hey, Lois! Help me!”
“Kyahahaha!”
“Gotcha!”
“Kkueh! Lois! Kueh!”
Finn manages to get caught by the twins and is thrown away.
Lois shook her head as she looked at Finn, who had returned to being the doll he had barely escaped from.
“Kkuwaek! Kuwewe!”
Lois, unable to see Finn screaming, came out.
He pulled the pin out of the twin’s hand.
Finn, who had been saved, hurriedly hid behind Lois and trembled.
Lois sighed and asked at the vibration coming from behind her.
“… “What are you doing here?”
“Roy, Roy!”
“I want to talk!”
The twins cast bright eyes in front of Lois, who is smaller than them.
When Lois saw this, a sigh escaped her lips.
“ha… … .”
The dragons living on the peak next to the basin where Generoker is located also had hatchlings around the same time.
Fraternal twin dragons born 10,000 years apart.
My older sister, Kani, was born 1 second earlier.
Khan was born one second later and became the younger brother.
Although the genders were different, they looked exactly alike, fittingly calling them twins.
Lois’ sigh deepened at the surprise visit of the nuisance twins.
“Anyone of you can talk… … .”
The twins raced to answer Lois’ sighing words.
“Dad went to Eunhwaseong!”
“Leave us alone!”
“They said they would come back in 10 years!”
“Roy said the same thing!”
“So I came here to play because I was worried you might be bored!”
“I’m afraid Roy will be bored, not us!”
The way the twins took turns talking back and forth made Lois’ blood vessels bulge.
“These kids… … .”
Lois’s attitude toward the evil group that disturbed her peace was ordinary.
“a little… “Can you please go away?”
“Ahh! “Roy said something mean!”
“Roy Roy! “You can’t use words like that!”
“that’s right! “We brought some toys because we thought Roy might get bored!”
“ha… … .”
Lois clutched her forehead in growing frustration.
Whether he did it or not, the twins began to wander around Lois’ house as if it were their own.
‘Heaven, why are you putting me through this ordeal? … .’
Lois had a hunch.
It means that rough storms will hit the 10 years of single life that was thought to be peaceful.
