130 – Silent Morning
「… Rayleigh, whom you abandoned.”
The sender is written at the end of the letter.
The dragon who wrote the letter to me is Rayleigh.
As expected, it was her again.
It was a vague memory, but I remember being portrayed as Sophia’s rival in the opening video of [Destiny Dragons].
Looking back at my memories,
A woman with orange hair comes to mind.
It seems that there was also a flashing effect.
Anyway…….
The pattern engraved on the sealing wax earlier might symbolize her clan or family.
By the way, this lady…….
You have a lot of misunderstandings.
Who throws away who throws away who?
‘The breeder in the past abandoned it, not me?!’
It was a breeder in the past who did the work,
Taking all the responsibility for that,
Unfortunately, it was only my share.
I didn’t choose anything myself,
When I opened my eyes, I realized that I had to take responsibility.
Is this a case of responsibility without pleasure?
ㅡParrr… !
The hand holding the letter trembles slightly.
That’s because he only read the text,
It felt like I could hear Rayleigh’s voice.
Of course, it was a voice I had never heard before.
His sharp and powerful voice is immediately reminiscent of him.
Is it like being scolded in an overbearing tone?
On the other hand, it seemed that there was an emotion close to contempt beyond anger.
‘Could it be that he sent it in words?’
The feeling of hallucinations in the ears.
Goose bumps all over my back.
It feels like Rayleigh is watching me from behind.
“Haa, a duel challenge followed by a threatening letter…….”
Breeder, what the hell is this bastard?
What were you really doing in the past?
What is the identity of being intertwined with the primitive dragons, and how is it intertwined with Rayleigh?
It’s not even funny that I don’t know myself.
By the way, why is Rayleigh so angry? Wouldn’t your neck fly away as soon as you met it?
ㅡ Dori Dori…… !
No. If you were going to do it that way,
I wouldn’t have even sent a letter in the first place.
What are you doing to buy me time to run away?
Besides, even if they try to attack me, I won’t be as easily defeated as I thought because there were three dragons with whom I made an oath.
“As expected, the only way to know what happened was to meet in person?”
For some reason, Rayleigh has been holding on to a hostile attitude since the last time. Looking at the content of the letter alone, there is no absolute enemy.
Well, compared to the first letter I received, it felt a little calmer.
But by the way…….
Wait a minute? Are you a teacher?
There was no mention the other day?
When I looked at it again, this time I was using the title ‘teacher’ correctly.
It’s not like they met at the academy.
It seems like we’ve known each other for a long time.
But for some reason, Breeder must have left Rayleigh. It must have been that he was brought to the academy while hating dragons.
For now, this was all I could guess from the circumstances.
‘Haa, my head hurts.’
When one is solved, another is a problem.
I’m going crazy because every day is spectacular.
I’ve never had a normal day.
Besides, there were only two days left before I knew it. Short but too short It felt like I was on vacation from the military.
ㅡBrush… !
I shook my head and folded the letter again. And then…….
ㅡ Flutter!
I buried my head in the pillow.
After going through a lot, I was tired.
It was a time when I desperately needed a break.
‘I was supposed to meet Sonya again tomorrow, right?’
First of all, let’s pay attention to the conditional sympathy.
I have to make as many sides as possible.
Tomorrow will probably be fine as we just have to go to work together.
“Let’s go to sleep.”
Now that I had laid down properly, I closed my eyes, cleared my mind, and went to sleep.
‘I hope I can spend a little more time tomorrow. No, I’d rather just stop like this…….’
ㅡKoowool… !
I fell asleep dreaming of hopeless hopes like that.
*
! Chirp!
“Hmm… !”
A very clichéd chirping of birds.
A fresh cry wakes up sleepiness.
I simply closed and opened my eyes,
The dazzling sunlight stimulates my eyelids.
Yes. That the morning brightened.
“It’s a big deal. I’m used to this ceiling now.”
Unfamiliar ceiling is horny. It’s so familiar.
Returning to the original world is a luxury.
Because it was difficult to live day by day right now.
Anyway, the morning of the last weekend of this week was bright. I have to get up soon as my eyes are open. I couldn’t lie down because I thought I might have overslept.
‘I slept soundly… Could it be that it’s past 12 o’clock?’
It felt like I had slept well enough to feel uncomfortable. At other times, time doesn’t pass as fast, but when you’re sleeping, it feels like time passes quickly.
“Huh? What? I thought I had a good night’s sleep……. It’s not even nine o’clock yet?”
After waking up, I checked the time.
The desk clock reads 8:45.
I slept a little more than usual.
There is no specific wake-up time on the weekends.
Because there were no professors to supervise.
Because of that, I was able to sleep in more leisurely. It was even a holiday given to me.
But there is nothing as scary as familiarity, my body had already adapted to the existing wake-up time.
Still, I slept well, so let’s get up.
I don’t think I’ll ever be able to fall asleep again.
And since Sonya said she’d come on time, let’s prepare in advance.
‘If I wake up while eating breakfast, time will pass quickly.’
ㅡQuick, Queek… !
I finished washing my face and brushing my teeth at the sink installed in the corner of the night shift room. I even covered my head.
I thought I wanted to take a shower, but
For me, a servant, a shower was a luxury.
That’s right, private bathrooms are only attached to dormitories.
Even so, the public shower room in the main building of the academy could not be used as a user.
‘Uh, after the rest room remodeling is over, I need to warm up the water and wash it secretly. It doesn’t smell as bad as I thought, but it’s very unpleasant…… ?’
ㅡTurb, tumble… !
After drying my hair with a towel, I went outside.
“It’s quieter today. Are you all still sleeping?”
Only my footsteps echo in the hallway.
It was quiet outside as well as in the hallway.
If it was normal, it would have been noisy during mealtime, but it was the weekend, and the mood changed in an instant.
Everyone was sleeping like a dead mouse.
Are freshmen sleeping late?
Seriously, there is no separate Tang Dynasty army.
What did you do yesterday to make it so difficult?
That would be the case, and snoring could be heard from the hallway on the first floor. Besides, the night shift worker was nowhere to be seen.
Since it was the weekend, it seems that he put his juniors to sleep at his discretion.
‘If it was the territorial attitude of the girls, it seemed that the 1st and 2nd graders would roll without exception on the weekends, but it’s surprising.’
Seeing that he was flexible and considerate of his juniors, Sophia must have taken a separate action.
But apart from that, looking at this kind of appearance, it seemed that everyone was staying in their current peaceful state, whether it was an attack by a demonic dragon or something.
‘Ah, come to think of it, I heard that Diora made everyone drink alcohol yesterday, but Derke must be okay…… ?’
ㅡKiik… !
Before I went to the restaurant,
Carefully opened Derke’s door.
It was my intention to just check through the narrow gap in the door.
“… ….”
You can see the faces of Derke and Tina above the beds on either side. Both of them were in a deep sleep with tired faces.
I went to the land of dreams with a calm appearance, without talking or snoring in my sleep.
Let’s not wake him up. I wanted to tell you that it would be hard to see you today, but I can’t. I have no choice but to stop by again after eating.
I closed the door again and moved my feet.
I was planning to head straight to the restaurant.
First of all, I wanted to come to my senses by filling my stomach.
And if there’s a lady I know at the restaurant, I’m going to ask her what happened yesterday. Why did you come down so early yesterday? Besides, didn’t the 3rd graders gather at dawn?
And if I had the chance, I was going to ask her if she knew anything about Rayleigh.
ㅡKikiiik… !
“Oh, no one is there.”
As I entered the faculty cafeteria, I looked inside the student cafeteria on the way. However, the inside of the restaurant was empty.
It seems that everyone skipped breakfast and went to bed. Maybe it was the aftermath of Diora forcing everyone to drink.
‘The cafeteria for faculty members is also sluggish.’
The faculty cafeteria was also empty.
Everyone seemed carefree, probably because it was the weekend.
It seemed that everyone, faculty and students, had gotten used to the academy life that had been repeated for a long time.
ㅡJurruk… ! Dalgrak!
But it’s not my business. I ignored this phenomenon and received the food.
In the morning, bread and soup,
And salad and milk are the basics.
And for dessert, apples and other fruits were bound to come out.
Not a bad menu to fill your stomach in the morning without thinking.
“Um… Still, I’ve definitely improved my ramwit skills.”
The breakfast menu was so simple,
In particular, the soup had a strong flavor.
It didn’t feel like simply beating the ingredients and boiling them.
It was a mushroom cream soup with rich butter and cheese flavor.
ㅡPoouk… !
If you dipped it in dry bread, you could add a quite satisfying texture. The bread absorbs the soup like a sponge and retains the creamy flavor.
Every time you chew the soaked bread, hot soup leaks out of the bread like juice.
‘Oh? There’s even scraps of meat inside, right?’
It sure is a delicious breakfast.
However, I think it will be greasy for hangover.
It’s nice to have it hot, but you might feel sick while eating it.
“It seems like everyone drank alcohol yesterday, but soup and bread…….”
Maybe everyone went to sleep instead of eating after hearing that the menu for breakfast was bread and soup.
“Even if you think about it… ? I prepared hard, but I’m sad… !”
“Huh? Ram rat?”
Ram rat appeared without a trace.
I’m afraid it’s not a rat, so I’m agile.
The guy is drooling… ! With a sound, I pulled out a chair and sat across from him.
That too, with a depressed expression.
“The taste is not good… ?”
“Huh? Not at all. Isn’t that bad?”
“Is that really-?!”
“Okay, what’s wrong with making the soup? Do you have any concerns?”
“What do you do if you make it well-?! Nothing prepared for the ladies goes out… ! It’s a soup made by stir-frying meat and grinding potatoes…….”
A guy with a gloomy expression with his ears the size of a hand fan hanging down.
I made it with all my heart,
It seemed sad that there was no one to feed it.
Certainly deserves to be discouraged.
Ramzy didn’t do anything wrong.
“Still, the delicious things don’t change, so don’t be too disappointed.”
“I am really… ?!”
“Yes, it is true. But next time, pay more attention to lunch and dinner, which ladies care about. Isn’t it sad when you go through so much trouble and no one notices?”
I like people who work hard.
Isn’t it admirable that he doesn’t give up?
I hope Ramji won’t be downhearted over something like this.
“That’s right… ! Breeder? So by the way…….”
The guy who raises his head at my encouragement and looks at me with wide eyes.
Did you praise this for nothing?
I feel something strong.
Smells like getting caught up in trouble.
“No. I’m busy from lunch today.”
“Jjik-?! I haven’t said anything yet… !”
“It’s obvious, aren’t you asking for help with cooking again?”
“Yes, it is… ….”
“That’s why it can’t be done. How long are you going to depend on me?”
I like how Ramji works hard,
I know you’re anxious and looking for help, but
The way to grow is to know how to overcome yourself.
“Yeah, but… ! Sophia-sama asked for a favor yesterday morning… ! It helps!”
“Huh? Sophia?”
“Right-! He asked me to make something for lunch that would help the juniors! It’s not compulsory, but if it’s Sophia-sama’s request, I’d like to do it… !”
Ramjwi looks at me with a determined look in his eyes and continues his words.
“I am not asking you to cook… ! It’s just giving you a recipe that’s good for hangover… ! Please please… !”
