Episode 255 brother? (5)
Lois blinked.
For a moment, he picked his ears, wondering if he had heard something wrong.
‘Am I a little tired?’
Over the past two years, I have handled quite a lot of things that are not my style.
From the Siron territory you acquired to the Tower of Desire.
Even though he passed the work on to the children below him, there were still many things he had to do himself.
I don’t usually do things like that, but I worked hard because it was fun to grow my territory and tower.
It’s so surprising that others see it.
‘… ‘Are you really tired?’
But how could a dragon himself be tired?
But why am I hearing strange auditory hallucinations?
Lois denied reality and asked from the communication table.
“now… “What did you say?”
Then a small voice is heard.
[I told you my son has a little brother!]
I thought it wasn’t an auditory hallucination.
“Really… … ?”
Lois, whose face was filled with embarrassment, jumped up from her seat.
smart-.
“Lord Tower, this is Douglas. “I’m going in.”
When Douglas came into the room holding a draft of a new product.
“… Tower owner?”
fluttering-.
Only pure white curtains blowing in the wind welcomed Douglas.

About 3 years and 10 months.
It was a time when Royce declared independence and traveled around the winter and autumn continents.
In fact, the rare of Generoker, who returned after a long time, was not much different from before.
A peaceful atmosphere illuminated by the warm spring sunlight.
And the parents who are there.
“How… “Are you my father?”
“oh! “Is your son here?”
His father, Generoker, waves brightly at him.
“Is Lois here?”
Mother Valentina with a kind and kind smile.
Everything was the same as before he left.
However, one thing has changed.
Something pure white in the arms of Mother Valentina.
-Beep?
Lois couldn’t help but gape as the light blue eyes of a small baby dragon with white scales turned towards her.
Lois, whose thoughts were paralyzed, stuttered and asked.
“that… So, he… “You mean, you’re my younger brother?”
“yes!”
Generocker nodded eagerly.
Lois shouted in bewilderment at this.
“I heard you have a little brother!”
“huh? right? Look, what does it look like?”
“no no… So it doesn’t mean you’re pregnant… You mean she gave birth at all?!”
Normally, when you say you have a younger sibling, you mean when you’re pregnant, right?!
Why are you talking about it after giving birth to it?
Generoker looked embarrassed at Lois’ shout and gently wrapped his arms around Valentina’s shoulders.
“We didn’t know it would turn out like this… “I forgot to tell you when I was pregnant.”
“… “Is that something you’ll forget?”
“that is… So it happened. haha!”
“How did it end up like this…” … .”
Valentina also gently lowered her head as if she was embarrassed.
Lois asked.
“… “Didn’t you originally say that you two should have just one child and raise them well?!”
A long time ago.
Generoker had told Lois that he had no plans for his younger brother.
I will only give birth to you and raise you well.
Generoker scratched the back of his head in response to Royce’s question.
“I used to… As I raised you, I thought it would be okay to have another child, and after letting you go, I felt empty… “Because it is spiritual.”
“… Just say it wasn’t planned. “Why are you saying that?”
“Keuhum!”
As Valentina narrowed her eyes, Generoker cleared his throat sheepishly.
Meanwhile, Valentina walked towards Lois.

She held out the child she was holding in her arms.
“Try hugging me once.”
“ah… … .”
“He is your younger brother.”
Valentina with a gentle smile.
And in her hand was a tiny hatchling.
Lois hesitated, not knowing what to do with her younger sister who was so delicate.
Then, as if mesmerized by the clear sky-blue eyes looking up at him, he stretched out his hand and took the hatchling.
-Beep?
The little child was momentarily embarrassed by the stranger’s touch and flapped his short limbs.
In response, Valentina gently scratched the child’s head.
“Ariana, this is your brother.”
“The name… Are you Ariana? Girls?”
When Valentina nodded, Lois pulled Ariana up to her face and made eye contact.
-beep?
Ariana tilts her head.
The little sister looked exactly like her own when she was young, except for the color of her eyes.
Ariana, who had been making eye contact with Lois for a long time, smiled brightly.
-Beep!
The bright smile was so cute that a smile naturally spread across Lois’s lips.
He asked a question while gently holding Ariana in his arms.
“I see you can’t speak yet…” “It looks like it just hatched from the egg.”
“I woke up yesterday.”
“Yesterday?!”
Lois, who was asking this question, noticed something strange and asked with surprised eyes.
“Come to think of it… “Mom, shouldn’t you be here?”
Looking back on her past memories, the person who held her when she hatched from the egg was none other than Generoker.
At that time, Valentina was already in a deep sleep.
This is to reduce postpartum aftereffects.
‘Then I saw my mother’s face… … .’
I didn’t notice it at first because I was embarrassed, but when I looked closely, I saw cold sweat running down Valentina’s forehead.
She looked very tired.
“Are you okay…?” … ?”
Valentina smiled and answered Lois’ worried question.
“It’s still okay.”
“Why didn’t you go to sleep?”
It was Generoker that gave the answer to that question.
“It’s because of this dad.”
“… … ?”
“Dad couldn’t protect Ariana’s egg because of Senate work. “That’s why your mother kept Ariana’s egg all these years.”
“… “Please ask the twins’ aunt at least.”
“Your mom said she didn’t like it. “She leaves Ariana in someone else’s hands.”
“ah… … .”
“So your mother endured hardships to protect Ariana’s egg, and she woke up safely… Now there is a limit. “I need to go to sleep today.”
Valentina added to those words.
“It’s not necessarily because of that. I wanted to give my little brother a hug while looking at my son’s face like this. “Aw, they are my children, but how can they be so pretty?”
The youngest daughter in her son’s arms.
Valentina looked so happy looking at the two children, who looked so similar that one might think they were twins.
Generoker also nodded with a happy face next to her as if he agreed with her words.
At this, Lois sighed softly.
‘ha… … .’
His parents boasted that they were truly a perfect match.
Is there any other couple in the world who gets along so well?
Maybe that’s why Geumseul was also very good.
‘Well, thanks to that, my little brother was born like this.’
Lois shook her head as she watched her parents roasting sesame seeds like newlyweds.
It was then.
Generoker, who made slight eye contact with Valentina, awkwardly opened his mouth.
“that… Lois?”
Lois’ eyebrows twitched at the generoker’s call.
‘Lois?’
Generoker usually called himself ‘Roy’ or ‘Son’.
But is it called by its proper name?
Lois said with a chuckle.
“What is it?”
“huh?”
“Well, don’t you have something to ask for?”
“… “How did you know?”
“If you pretend, you pretend. So? “What is it?”
Genelocer hesitantly answered Royce’s question.
“that… Ariana was born… “This dad hasn’t finished his work yet.”
“… … .”
“So… … .”
“Do you want me to look after Ariana while her father is away?”
“Yeah, right!”
Generocker nodded eagerly.
“Ariana is still too young to be taken to Silver Mars… … .”
“No, a hatchling was born, but the damn senate doesn’t even look at this situation?”
“That’s what I said! It’s important for me to see my daughter, right? Is the work of the Senate important? Taheuk!”
Generoker, who was furious at Royce’s words, grabbed his side.
Valentina, clutching his side, spoke on behalf of her husband.
“Normally, the Senate wouldn’t have caught your father like this, but it looks like something urgent has come up this time. Our family’s problems are important, but isn’t it because there is a dragon society that we also have a family? So, why don’t you take care of my younger brother for a while?”
“hmm… “How long is that?”
Generoker answered that question with a smile.
“Dad, don’t finish this quickly! “It won’t last longer than a year!”
In dragon time, one year was not a very long time.
Lois, who wondered what would happen if it took longer, thought it was okay.
And even if it’s not okay, there’s nothing you can do about it.
It was impossible to leave this little child alone.
“all right. “I will watch Ariana while your father comes.”
“Well, will you do that? thanks!”
“Thank you. “He is my younger brother.”
Valentina and Generoker looked thrilled.
And Generoker asked with great anticipation.
“And then… … .”
“… … ?”
“that… “You suddenly have a younger brother, right?”
“Yes?”
“So get ready…” “I couldn’t do it.”
“Ready for what?”
“… “Elixir.”
“… … .”
A look of bewilderment appeared on Lois’ face again.
Well, it was worth it.
The dragon spends a long time collecting elixirs to prepare for the hatchling’s growth.
However, Ariana is a child born unexpectedly and without any plan.
So, is it possible that you were properly prepared for childcare?
However, the couple knew of a being who had been collecting metallurgy elixirs like acorns for a long time… … .
Lois asked with narrowed eyes.
“therefore… “Do you want the elixir I collected?”
“Hmm.”
Genelocer said with an embarrassed face, knowing how much Lois had treasured the elixir.
“Hey, this dad, when my son gets married later, I’ll pay him twice, no, three times as much!”
Is it just an illusion that it sounds like a common refrain from parents who take away New Year’s money from their childhood?
Lois responded with a grin.
“Please hit it four times.”
“Oh, nothing!”
“Oh, and… … .”
Lois took out a small box from subspace and held it out to Valentina.
“Take this before you go to sleep.”
“son?”
“You look very distressed.”
“son… … .”
Valentina accepted the box Lois held out.
How could she not know the pure energy of light that oscillated within it?
It probably contains some pretty good elixirs.
However, Valentina was so moved by the fact that Lois cared for her more than the value, that she hugged her son tightly.
-Beep!
Ariana, sandwiched between Valentina and Lois, let out an excited cry.
“How will this mother go on, leaving behind such a beautiful son and daughter?” … .”
Valentina was so happy.
“son? What about dad? Dad bet!”
Lois said something as she looked at Generocker, whose eyes were shining as she asked for one of her own.
“Your father is strong.”
At that one word, Generocker drooped sullenly.
-Bap bap!
Ariana bursts out laughing as if she finds that sight amusing.
Even though it had been a long time since they had seen each other, Lois couldn’t help but chuckle at the sight of her parents who were still the same.
The next day.
Valentina, whose condition was getting worse, quickly left for a retreat prepared for postpartum care, and Generoker, who had finished seeing off his wife with Lois, also left for Eunhwa Castle.
Royce was left alone with Ariana.
“… “What happened?”
When Lois, who suddenly took on childcare alone, was in a daze.
Hum-.
The communication seat trembled with a vibration sound.
As Lois received the communication seat, a loud voice was heard.
[Roy, where are you?! Where did you go?]
The main voice was, of course, Kani.
To this, Lois responded in a tone that made her feel a little dumbfounded, or in a slightly boastful tone.
“Hey, I… “I have a younger brother.”
* * *
Meanwhile, it was the time when Lois was left alone with Ariana.
A place on the Spring Continent.
Square – square -.
After nearly four years of non-stop movement, a gigantic shape was completed.
A shape made of black lines.
It was none other than a dragon well over 30 meters tall.
However, it is in an unfinished state with the eyes not yet drawn.
And finally.
That is- that is-.
Black dots began to depict the dragon’s eyes.
