Chapter.38 You are not there
A dragon this weak to alcohol.
After patting his back, he laid him back on the floor.
I was completely wrong.
Dragons do not live on alcohol like dwarves. Rather, they are a race that enjoys drinking with dignity.
So, I recommended it because I thought dragons are strong against alcohol, but it was a failure.
“Nenoom.”
“Why again? Lie down for a bit. “Stop stumbling.”
Rurin stumbled and fell in front of me. Although she didn’t mean to, she ended up hugging Rurin in front of her, and Rurin looked up at me.
There is no prohibition against touching.
I heard you can’t do anything except your husband?
“really… Is it my pyeon? really… oh? “Is it my pyeon?”
My tongue is twisted, and my pronunciation is a mess. It’s amazing that I can still understand it though.
“I’m on your side. Is that so? “I’ve told you so many times over the past two months, but you still don’t believe me?”
“My pyeon…” It’s my favorite! you are strange but… It’s my favorite… “Really?”
How many times do you use the word really?
A typical characteristic of drunk people is repeating what they say endlessly.
It’s absolutely not okay to pretend to be drunk.
“Really. “Lurin.”
“Aren’t you going to betray me? Don’t betray me… .”
“Of course.”
“Okay… nine… Gororong… .”
The dragon who was talking about betrayal had already fallen asleep.
And when I woke up and couldn’t remember anything, it resembled a very common scene at a company dinner.
***
Several months passed like that. Life is the same. It’s windy and rainy, we eat together and sleep together.
Rather, it was a good day because it was ordinary.
Dragons appeared again. Black Dragon. This is a guy named Drin who has been harassing Lulin from the beginning, and his colleague.
He appears periodically, like a local gangster who appears with more friends when he is defeated.
This time, I made a lot of noise and came out, and surprisingly, they didn’t bring more dragons.
No, that wouldn’t be possible.
However, I glared at them, wondering what they wanted to do with the two of them coming alone. Then they also point at Rurin and make her laugh.
“Kkekekekeuk, your expression is so proud?”
“noisy! I will kill you someday. Someday! “When I become stronger!”
“That day will never come. Lurin. Have you finally come to your senses?”
“Didn’t you guys hear what the elder said? “Don’t come here?”
“I heard.”
“Oh yeah? “Then, even if I kill you this time, it’s in self-defense.”
I started popping the plasma. Powerful mana gathers around me. Then the dragons flapped their wings with a puzzled expression.
“Wait, wait, I know your skills. I didn’t come here to fight. Isn’t that right?”
“Yes, of course.”
The two dragons were giggling as they looked at each other. Then he ignores me and speaks condescendingly to Rurin the whole time.
“Lurin. “Do you think the guy next to him is on your side?”
“I know. Where is the same side for a dirty bastard like you? No matter how insignificant a human being is… There is no such thing. There is none. Lulin! Hehehe, isn’t that right, Lurin?”
One of the dragons held his stomach and started giggling. It’s like he can’t see anything at all. He thought he would burn it down, so he took a step forward.
“You didn’t come here to fight? “So you came here to die?”
“Wait a moment, human! “We are just talking to Rurin!”
“I don’t like it! “I have nothing to say!”
Then Lurin also glared at them and screamed. No, she knew that they were the ones who destroyed the rare, so she had a strong spirit from the beginning.
Of course, I want to kill those guys, but if they attack me first, if I attack them first, a serious situation will occur in the black dragon’s territory.
No matter how much I am, I can’t deal with all of them. There are only about 10 that can be defeated at once.
The elder has asked me to do something, so this is a matter for the elder to resolve, and just as I was thinking that I should kick these guys out and argue with the elder one more time.
“Do you know what that person’s intentions are? The reason I approached a dragon like you in the first place was because of your mother’s dirty actions? He said he came to the elder and asked about it before he met you. Well, I guess you’re interested in dragon beads. So I’m just using you for the dragon orbs. Team up with the elder, team up with other dragons. Do you understand? I guess I was tricked into staying with that guy because he said something treacherous… Hehehe, that’s just how you are. Isn’t that right, Drin?”
“Yes, yes. “That is correct.”
“… … ?”
Lulin glared at them with the intention of shooting his breath, but then stopped.
Then, he turned his young gaze away from the dragon. The person the gaze was directed at was me.
I used my mana to deal with those guys first.
Kwaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
A huge explosion occurred where they were standing, sending them fluttering and flying high into the sky.
“Ouch! This one, the power of the rod is strong. Sheesh. Well, since I made Rurin aware of my situation, shall I go back?”
“Of course. “I’ll see you when Niess comes back, Lurin.”
Of course, I have no intention of spending it kindly. Plasma breaks explode all over their path.
-Kaaaaaaaa!
“So let’s jump a little faster!”
“My wings are burning. It’s so hot it’s killing me!”
The two dragons roared and ran away.

Is tormenting Rurin the only joy in life? Plus, I’m embarrassed by her nonsense.
It’s not like you’re a snitch, but you’re telling me everything like that? Are you saying you’re going to torture Rurin by giving her mental trauma?
If that is the goal, the problem is that it seems to have worked well.
Of course, the reason I came to Lulin in the first place was to do Rod’s homework and to hear about the circumstances of the incident from Lulin, who was the person who knew the most clearly.
It doesn’t change the fact that I still have to listen to it now.
You may not know it at first, but there’s no way you could have stayed with Lulin for several months just because of that.
But Lulin ignored me. He turned his back and started walking towards the lair without saying a word.
I think he glanced at me and gave me a cold gaze that took my breath away.
“Lurin… . Lurin!”
I shouted, holding Lurin’s wrist as she walked.
“Do not touch.”
“Lurin, you sure don’t believe what they say, do you?”
“Then isn’t it?”
Lurin let out a cold sigh without turning her head towards me. The cold seeps deep into my bones. Like drinking ice water from the freezer.
“I’m not stupid.”
“No, no. “It’s not like that.”
“What is it?”
I guess the reason I fell for the dragons’ words was because I was hasty in bringing up the story of her mother. I think that served as a point of reference.
“What are you planning with the elder? Neither the elders nor my fellow countrymen are on my side. So there is no way you, the guy who was fooling around with them, is on my side. How can you fool me? How can you fool me? You said you wouldn’t betray… It’s the same as the other guys. No, it’s worse!”
“No, I’ve never done anything with the elder. I’ve asked a few questions… .”
“Now that you are talking about your relationship with the elder… Then the reason why the elder came here… “Did the elder send you?”
“Uh, that’s… “Well, to put it bluntly, it’s true.”
“Is it because of the dragon beads that you too? Because of that… You cook for me, and it’s all because of the dragon beads? Her mom did that. Because of that, countless dragons die. Because of the greed to get it. You too, you too… .”
“wait for a sec. Lurin.”
I stopped in front of Lurin, who was saying something incomprehensible. And she looked straight into her Lulin’s eyes.
“Do you really think that? Do you really think I stayed by your side like this just to take advantage of you? If that were the case, there would have been many other ways. I just want you, you… .”
“I?”
I want to watch and protect everything about Rurin.
It is true that I have many different emotions.
A relationship where you feel a sense of kinship. Just like her younger sister.
But even if I say ambiguous words that even I don’t know well, I can’t even get my head around it. you… What do you mean? First of all, I changed my mind.
“Anyway, think about it carefully. Okay, let’s make a bet so that you can decide after thinking about it calmly. “It’s the last bet.”
“hate! “You said with your own mouth that the elder sent you!”
“Listen! I’ll be honest. It’s true that the reason I first came to see you was because of your mother’s work.
But it’s not for the reason you think. It was a request from the Dragon Lord involved in that incident, and it was also a way to restore your mother’s honor.
I didn’t explain it to you in advance because I thought you wouldn’t believe it like you do now, but please believe me.
And even if it wasn’t for that reason, it was fun being with you! Wasn’t it you? Was it really that annoying? No!
If it felt like you were just bothering me until the end, I would have left already. “I just have to get that information from somewhere else!”
“… … .”
I became passionate without realizing it.
Lulin just blinked. She doesn’t say anything in response.
First, I took a deep breath and continued speaking.
“So it’s a bet. Think of it as your last bet. I’ll wait by the lake until dawn. If you don’t come, it’s your victory. I’m leaving. If you come… It’s my victory. Then I won’t leave.”
Lurin did not answer. There was no nod of his head.
But I said everything I had to say. There is nothing more to say here. If it doesn’t come, it means that the time we spent so far has no meaning.
It went into rare. I packed my luggage. She put on her backpack and headed out to Lair. Lulin stood still and said nothing.
So I walked without saying anything.
To the lakeside.
***
We’ve been here since the afternoon, so quite a bit of time has already passed.
The deadline is early morning.
Yes, it is dawn now.
The satellites of this world are very similar to the moon. It was now shining at a size similar to the full moon.
No, it’s a little bigger than the full moon.
It’s as big as witnessing a supermoon.
A satellite of this unnamed planet.
Earth’s satellite is the moon.
The light of a similar satellite shines softly on the lakeside. A group of lights splitting the darkness dazzles the eyes.
There is still no sign of the black dragon.
Even the human figure.
Also the appearance of a dragon.
The guy who said he hadn’t smiled in hundreds of years had never smiled at me either.
I had a small wish to make that face smile.
He’s a stubborn guy.
Are you really thinking of not showing up?
I looked around.
There is no pretense of animal popularity. Soon the world before my eyes becomes very quiet.
When I look at the calm lakeside, I feel like I’m going to be sucked in. I couldn’t sleep.
Time continues to pass.
In this darkness that is not that dark due to the light of the round moon floating in the sky.
I was quietly killing time.
Dawn is fading away. When the sun rises and morning comes.
The chirping sound of birds came to the calm lakeside at dawn.
