“… Come on, hurry up and get carried away!”
ㅡ Cheo-eok!
Derke lowers his posture by extending his arms behind him.
In front of me, a narrow back is spread out.
No matter how I looked at it, there seemed to be no place for me to climb up.
‘Puhu, would you carry me on your back with that small body?’
Of course, the essence of Derke is a death dragon.
It is not something to be taken lightly just because it is small.
As long as I carry one on my back, it shouldn’t be a problem at all.
However, I couldn’t help but think that Derke looked cute like this. It was so admirable that he would carry me on his back again.
ㅡ Bang! Come on… !
“Kyahahahaha… ?! B, breeder brother-?”
“Stay still. What else will the sophomore girls say if I make a loud noise again?”
I lifted Derke from the back.
His arms supported his back and thighs respectively.
The princess was hugged with the front facing me.
I don’t know if it’s a dragon that’s close to an adult like Sofia or Raylin. No matter how much a dragon it is, it can’t be picked up by Derke, who has a lot of hints of hetzling.
My pride didn’t allow it this time.
“My, putting it down… ! Derke was going to carry him on his back for his tired brother, but eh…… ?!”
Derke struggles in his arms with a puzzled face.
“Shhh, I will only be grateful for your heart. And if I really carried you on my back, only my situation would have been in trouble?”
“hahahaha? What does that mean yap-? My brother is in trouble…… ?”
“Think about it. A human riding on a dragon’s back? It’s not even a ride… Do you think there is no action that can damage a dragon’s pride as much as that?”
“After-? But… !”
“Derke? The slope is pretty steep right now. Will you please stay still? If you keep struggling, even I will stumble.”
“Yeah, but… ….”
“I’ll drop you off once you pass here. Got it?”
Derke was very light for his small size.
But his struggling strength was incredible.
The feeling of a large live fish flapping in your arms.
“Huh… I get it yap…….”
But he quickly calms down at my request.
It seemed to be okay after I was hugged.
With a reddish blush on her face.
ㅡPork… !
Look at this. When are you struggling?
At all, it is settling down in earnest.
Looks like a puppy lying on its stomach.
Then he rolled his bright green eyes back and forth in my face. Just like the day we first met at the barn.
“heheheh-♬ As expected, oppa is a kind person!”
“Heh, how many people can be harsh on you?”
Where does the dragon that will carry me go?
Only one puppy is being held.
A goldfish with gray hair.
“Sooner or later… ! Certainly… ! Death Yong handing over Derke’s heart… !”
“Yes, yes. You will have to work hard to do that.”
“Whoah… ? What does that mean, death-?!”
Unknowingly, my inner feelings come out.
Could it be because of my mind going up the mountain?
It reminded me of what happened in the morning.
This is how Sofia failed to hand over the Dragon Heart.
“Huh? Oh, that’s…….”
“Back there… ! It’s been noisy since earlier, please be quiet!”
“What?”

Just as I was contemplating what to say to Derke, a high-pitched voice suddenly approached me from the front.
“If you talk about it one more time, the seniors will gather as a group─ eh… ?!”
While walking along such a steep mountain trail, a kitten with black short hair approaches from the front. With eyes looking anxious for fear of being grouped.
The identity of that cat was Tina, who was leading the first year.
“Derke? Mr Breeder…… ?”
Tina had two bright red cones and pointed ears reminiscent of a cow devil, and she made a puzzled face at us.
Then, he kept tilting his head and looked at me and Derke alternately.
His red eyes seemed to be asking us what we were doing.
“Ah, I hugged Derke for a while because he was having a hard time. You won’t be noisy anymore, so don’t worry, Miss Tina.”
“That, that…… !”
For a moment, Tina’s expression becomes complicated.
Although it looks like a puzzled expression,
There was some kind of envy in the eyes looking at Derke.
“Hey… Breeder teacher?”
“Yes? After all, would it be better to put it down?”
“That, more than that… ! If that’s the case…….”
“Hmm?”
Suddenly, Tina’s face turns red.
I couldn’t even make eye contact with her.
Like someone who has something difficult to say.
“I also had a sore leg, but… ….”
“Oh? Miss Tina?”
“Wouldn’t it be okay for me to hug you later…… ?”

ㅡJerbeok, jeobeok, jeobeok… !
The hiking continued until the temple was located.
I felt like I had walked for about an hour.
Normally, the timing would have already been exhausted and spread.
But is it because he has Sophia’s heart? Or is it because of the six dragon hearts sealed in the body?
Surprisingly, it wasn’t so hard that I was out of breath like last time. It was strange that he lightly broke Indrago’s arm earlier.
It wasn’t just that.
Even before you figured out the identity of the sealed Dragon Heart, didn’t the burn marks on Raylin’s body heal quickly on its own?
One thing is for sure, it didn’t look like a normal human body. There must be something hidden in the body worthy of the initial rank.
“De, Derke… ?! I think I can stop now… !”
“Whoah-? Tina, already?”
“Already? You’ve been carrying me ever since!”
While I was thinking about the identity of my body, I heard the lively voices of Derke and Tina from behind.
“… Hey, stop it! I think we’re almost there!”
“Ugh-! I can give you more……. Okay-!”
Earlier, as soon as Tina asked me to hold her, Derke immediately came down from my arms and carried Tina on her back.
My friend used the power of the specter to lift Tina up, saying that she couldn’t see her having a hard time. Actually, he must have kept Tina in check because she thought I would hug her for real.
As a result, I was able to climb the mountain as comfortably as possible.

Jeop, if I had known in advance that he would carry me on my back without difficulty with the power of the specter, I would be indebted.
“Sheesh… ! Anyway, thank you Derke!”
Tina was able to put her feet on her floor only after the specter that supported her back and her hips disappeared.
Tina, who left a message of thanks to Derke, said, “This wasn’t what I wanted…… ‘ He grumbled and quickly ran to her lead. She glanced back at me once.
Anyway, it seems like we’ve really come all the way.
Gradually, an open flat land comes into view.
The surrounding scenery that looks like ancient ruins is overwhelming.
“Wow… ! Did you think there would be a structure like this on the mountainside?”
At the end of the rugged and steep slope,
Surprisingly, a vast plain greets us.
The floor was all covered with marble.
And in the center was a white temple whose scale was difficult to gauge.
Would it be like the Parthenon in Greece?
That was the time when I was exclaiming in my mind at the unrealistic scenery.
“Let’s get together by breaking each grade! Before going to worship, let’s have lunch!”
I can hear Sofia’s voice from far away.
As soon as I arrived, I wanted to do something like worship,
It seemed that it was already lunch time.
ㅡ growling… !
Climbing was not as difficult as I thought, but
The belly clock was more honest than anyone else.
I was requesting that the calories be replenished immediately.
“And Mr. Breeder, please come to me for a moment!”
“Huh?”
What is it all of a sudden?
You were so reluctant to be together?
I don’t know why, but I need to go see Sofia first.

“Breeder… ! I never thought I would see you here again!”
Ramswie greets me with his big front teeth.
Sophia called earlier. Why is she with Ram Rat?
ㅡProfessor Bennettrick’s instructions. Help the inmates and help promote meals together. I want to take it out secretly, but I don’t know when the professor will come.
These were the words I heard from Sofia earlier.
There was no perfect holiday for employees.
Trying to eat all the labor…….
Anyway, because of these instructions, I moved to the back of the temple to help the beastmen. I was helping with the simplest tableware setting.
“Ramjwi, do you come all the way here to cook on the weekend?”
“No… ! On weekends, we only promote meals!”
“Huh? Then who cooks?”
“Hey, I heard they work hard every weekend!”
“Oh, come to think of it… …. Who are those people? These are faces you haven’t seen at the academy?”
At the place Ramjwi’s blunt finger pointed to, heterogeneous people wearing cooking hats were finishing the dishes.
The pointy-eared elf prepared a variety of salads.
The sleek scaled lizardman had a hamburger.
A dwarf with an impressive mustache was pouring lemonade out of a large barrel.
Unfortunately, there didn’t seem to be any humans among them.
“These are believers from the continent who used to be chefs-! In addition to being a chef, there are many believers who are talented in various fields… !”
“Besides the cook? What else does that mean?”
“I heard that there are many believers who come to donate their talents to the academy in addition to praying on weekends like this… !”
“Oh, sure. The Originating Dragon wasn’t the only dragon-servant…….”
“Anyway, it’s so nice to be able to take a day off from cooking on the weekend!”
It was the first time I had heard of it.
Continental chefs…….
Suddenly, I am curious about their skills.
“… Are you there, brothers? Now that everything is finished, please come over here.”
While thinking about this and that, the lizard man with red scales who was making hamburgers calls us with a cultured tone.
“The brothers carefully wrap the finished burgers and move them well.”
“Ah, just leave it to me.”
Thankfully. Because it’s not as difficult as you think. Could it be because of what Sophia said beforehand?
“Oh, it would be perfect if the free-fingered human brother took care of the packaging.”
A lizard man with a deep voice that doesn’t match the body of a reptile pointed at me.
“Then I will take care of the packing.”
“Ah, but in case the brother… Are you from a criminal background?”
“Yes? How is that…….”
“I heard from the vice principal who is a regular at our restaurant. They say that there are employees with very promising skills.”
“Ah… okay.”
“If you have a chance, could you help me separately later?”
“Can I do that?”
“Sure. No matter how criminal he is, since I’ve heard a lot about him, I can’t help but be interested in him as a chef. I heard that you are so good at it.”
Damn, when did you talk about me like that again? If possible, I wanted to pass the time comfortably…….
My impression is hardened without even realizing it, wondering if it’s just that my work is increasing.
“Ah, by the way, brother? I didn’t hear the exact charges against the brother from the vice principal…….”
“Yes?”
“You are not a Balaur-hater or a heretic follower, are you? It’s food for the ladies who protect the continent, but injustice shouldn’t be allowed.”
Lizard Man keeps talking to me in a joking tone.
Hmm? Do you see how good this man is?
I am a dragon hater, right?
