10 – Snow Earth, Young Guardian Dragon’s Magic (4)
The dragons of this world had their own attributes.
A typical one among them.
First of all, there is something called the Fire Dragon’s merciless fire magic.
These fire dragons that stay in a volcano erupting with magma and lava that reach thousands of degrees.
They get their strength from the volcano and magma area where they live.
Naturally, the magical power of the dragon also resembled its environment and possessed a seething nature.
It’s hot, it’s blazing, it’s terrifying, and it’s also ferocious.
Therefore, on very rare occasions when they escape from their home and attack the nearby city center, the very intense fire attribute is strongly colored throughout the atmosphere.
The same was true for Drakes and Wyverns, which are classified as monsters.
In the case of these land dragons, which mainly occupy between the leylines where magical energy flows in the mountains, and build nests there, they have a strong attachment to the territory that is the source of their power, and they relentlessly attack adventurers and monsters that come nearby. Punish
And in the case of the ice dragon called the white dragon.
Even in the northern part, it perfects its own unique nature from the deepest realm.
Over a lifetime of growing up.
The scales are like translucent boulders. Body material like pure white glass.
The secular name called Bingryong (氷龍) can tell you where the source of their power belongs.
[Mother?]
[Ah. Hmm. Okay.]
At the voice of the girl, Lucia, calling her.
After managing his expression for a while, Grand Duke Lucrezia looked back as if nothing had happened.
[Daddy, you came back quickly.]
At her question, the beautiful girl smiled.
[I didn’t do anything great, Mother.]
Then she showed her hand.
There was a small ball of snow.
But soon.
She stared at her own mother, Archduchess Lucrezia, with a strange expression.
[…?]
Lucia, who tilted her head for a moment, asked as if she were a bit puzzled.
[Mother, for some reason, her face seems to be a little red.]
[That, do you see that?]
For some reason, the tone of the words seems to tremble.
‘Ah, it must be an illusion.’
But since she was so fleeting, Lucia thought she must have heard it wrong.
That would be the case too.
Because the Duke of Lucrezia in front of her now was the Grand Duke of the North.
She was ruthless and never fully expressed her emotions at all times.
He was an iron-blooded grand duke who always controlled everything as coldly as frozen snow and treated the world with interest.
To the extent that there is an expression that even the emperor of that vast empire would always lose to the Grand Duke of Lucrezia in front of him.
The Grand Duke was cold and ruthless.
The Grand Duke of Lucrezia, who quickly returned to his original expression, nodded lightly when he saw the snowball Lucia had brought.
[…For now, that was enough. Sit down, Lucia.]
[Yes, mother.]
They sat side by side and looked at Han.
[Now, Guardian Dragon?]
[Kikkiik?]
[Would you like to take a look at this?]
Then Lucia showed him the snowball she had just taken from outside her garden.
‘What is that?’
It was a long time to look at it for a while.
After realizing that it was just a snowball with nothing special about it, he turned his head away without regret.
Han is not a child of one or two years old, and he had no reason to pay attention to such things.
In addition, this was a northern land where snowstorms raged all year round.
For the past dozen days, what I’ve seen and seen over and over again was the snow and blizzards, but now there’s no reason to pay attention to those places.
On the contrary, the figure of Han turning his head rapidly as if he hadn’t even thought about it.
Lucia muttered puzzledly.
[…Why is that?]
[Look at Tyler a little more, Lucia.]
[Yes.]
At Lucrezia’s urging voice, she quietly pushed her snowball out in front of Han.
[Ego. Are you Guardian Dragon? Would you like to see it again?]
‘Sounds without hesitation. Do you think I’m a snub-nosed kid?’
Tap, he slammed away with his long tail.
[Ah.]
Because the snowball that rolls and rolls to the other side is about to fall.
She hurriedly took it back.
Bewildered, Lucia murmured.
[It’s strange…]
Lucrecia, who was looking at that figure, asked Lucrezia with a slightly worried expression.
[Mother, I followed the ‘diary’, but somehow the reaction wasn’t that good.]
[Um… Maybe it’s because I’m not used to it yet. If you take a little time-.]
‘Huh. If you see me as just a newborn pet dragon, you’re unfortunately making a big mistake.’
For some reason, it seems that Lucia or Lucrezia wants something from him.
That said, Han had no intention of mingling with her.
It seemed that all the maids in the castle, Lucia, and the Grand Duke were already looking at Han, but at this point he felt the need to change his perception of himself.
‘The original dragon is a lofty law. I have to change my mind a bit now.’
Although I liked being by their side, that was that and this was this.
He had no intention of being petted by them, as if he were some kind of pet. He is obviously human!
Standing on the table like that, he was holding his head high.
The slightly open eyes turned toward the snowball that I had inadvertently plucked out.
By the way.
‘Hmm?’
For some reason, I could feel myself subtly directing my gaze.
[…]
Han stared blankly at the snowball for a while.
Then, Lucia, who was observing the situation, her eyes twinkled.
[Ah, I guess I’m getting a little interested now.]
[Keep watching quietly.]
[Ah, yes!]
[You forget it quickly and do it again. Shh-.]
To the point where I couldn’t even hear their conversation.
Han, who had been staring at the white snowball, inadvertently placed his front paw on it.
It is a cold and chilly feeling.
Somehow, something feels good.
‘…What is this?’
From noble mtl dot com
A little strange feeling.
For some reason, Han could not easily take his front paws off of it.
This isn’t something to eat like baby food, and it doesn’t have any smell, just an ordinary snowball.
Han couldn’t stay away from that cold feeling.
‘What kind of dragon’s catnip is that?’
I don’t know why, but I felt as if my inner energy was gradually rising.
It feels as if his fragile body is getting better little by little.
Han with a drooping expression
It wasn’t long before I felt that way.
Perseok.
All of a sudden, the snowball that Han was resting on his foot shattered helplessly.
At first, the eyes of the two who had been watching that scene widened in surprise.
[Wow…!]
[…The record was true. The magic of the eyes…]
On the other hand, Han Eun was concentrating on the broken eye.
He licked his lips in regret at the light in his embarrassing eyes.
‘Sorry.’
He thumped, fiddling with the shattered snowflakes with his paws.
But for some reason.
The shattered snowflakes no longer felt the same coldness as before. I didn’t feel any tingling.
It doesn’t stick together even when he gives it strength, and it’s not cold anymore.
It feels like it has already sucked all the cold air out of it.
It felt like the ashes of a burnt out bonfire.
It’s a bit strange even for him to think, but it’s definitely the most accurate expression.
I wish I could have felt this cold for a little longer.
However, Lucia and Lucrecia, the two of them, rather seemed to welcome Han’s incomprehensible behavior.
Looks like he was waiting rather than surprised or flustered.
Hando I felt something from their reaction.
‘As expected, the two of you know something, don’t you?’
A reaction that would never come out otherwise.
But, once in a while.
I couldn’t stand this chilling feeling and screamed.
[Kieek-!]
First of all, let’s talk about the contents.
It was ‘give me more!’.
* * * *
[Guardian Dragon, I’ll wake you up when it’s time to eat, so have a good night’s sleep.]
‘Something like that.’
That day, Han returned to her room.
As if ignoring the words of the head maid, who was politely greeting him, he turned her head away and lay down on the cushion that was his bed.
[Kiyung-.]
Jjeok, what flowed out of his wide open mouth was a thick feeling of satiety.
It was a strange feeling.
I felt full as if I was full even though I hadn’t eaten anything.
He obtained a record of shattering three or four snowballs this afternoon.
Licking his lips in satisfaction, he crept closer to the fire-side. It was to feel the warmth of the fire.
But at that moment.
Profit-.
He opened his eyes wide as he saw the flames that had been blazing right in front of him dying down in an instant.
[…Kikki?]
Han is an incomprehensible phenomenon that happened in an instant.
I felt embarrassed and let out a suspicious sound.
He staggers back.
Flame!
Soon after, the fire by the fireplace quickly regained its true form and burned vigorously.
‘What, what.’
As if the flames were avoiding him. Otherwise, it seemed to be wary of his approach.
To that incomprehensible phenomenon.
Han was perplexed, but cautiously took a couple of steps and moved closer to the fire.
Profit-.
Then, along with the sound of the hearth fire dying again, her strength diminished.
‘Uh…’
At that unexpected sight.
Feeling absurd, Han opened his mouth.
‘Gee, what is this really?’
