“A wooden man, a black dragon, and this time a child?”
Choi Hyun-woo muttered as if it was ridiculous.
It was the same with this one as well.
“What are you going to turn into next? Can’t you just give me a sneak peek?”
“… … .”
“Aren’t you going to turn into a woman? If Jihyeok turns you into a woman… Hmm, I think it looks like something to chew on.”
“Shut your mouth when you say something nice, Hyeonu.”
“Uh-huh, I can’t use it if I curse at my brother.”
He giggled and burst out laughing.
Then he picked up one candy and put it in his mouth, and picked up another candy.
“My Jihyuk, would you like to eat something? Can you buy me one?”
“… If you keep doing it, you will really kill me.”
Choi Hyun-woo burst out laughing out loud as if he couldn’t stand it at the warning that he spat out with full of anger.
As I stared at him with tears in my eyes, he waved his hand as if he was sorry, and sobbed as if sobbing.
“Oh, no… Seeing that appearance, with a voice like that, seriously killing me… Great!”
“… … .”
Seeing him shaking his body and holding back his laughter, I realized that no matter what he said, I was at a loss.
Meanwhile, Han Soo-young, who was sitting next to me, wet her lips with saliva for nothing.
“Well, then, let Ji-hyeok summarize your words.”
… At Minerva’s request, I drank the potion and immediately turned into a child, and Yeeun Lee entered the room as if waiting.
While she was looking for clothes for me, other children also came, so I am now in a position to explain what happened in front of everyone.
In addition to thanking Evangeline Lohengrin, they exchanged information obtained.
In the meantime, she delivered potions, and I didn’t want to drink it, but I drank it because I had promised to do Minerva’s request.
Han Soo-young nodded and said at my explanation that could be summarized like this.
“So you’re saying we just have to thank Evangeline?”
“What nonsense are you talking about, darling? Swimming is up to you.”
“I’ll have to ask you later to learn too. Change magic.”
While Han Soo-young was muttering with a firm resolve, Jin Ye-seul asked me.
“Then what were you doing alone? It sounds like a story we didn’t really care about.”
“that… .”
After pondering for a moment, I nodded my head, thinking that there was no need to hide it.
“Hey, I asked Evangeline-san for a special request.”
“Request?”
“I asked you to make an artifact. using my scales.”
For some reason, everyone’s attention was focused on me.
Normally I would have been fine, but I was very nervous because I had become a child.
I had a cold sweat.
“That, what is it? Everyone suffers because of me. Besides, there was also a good material called dragon scales, so I asked for it. I have used them separately… Well. and.”
I didn’t mean to do that at all, but I was gibberish, like a child making excuses.
The more I spoke, the more nervous I became.
“Because of me, the head of the family… Did you lose a lot? So I was thinking of disposing of the rest and adding it. I didn’t want to tell you in advance, so I was going to keep it a secret until it became clear.”
As soon as I finished speaking, looking around me, Han Soo-young suddenly reached out and started stroking my hair.
When he looked at him, he fiddled with his hands as if he was handling a puppy, and made a snoring sound as if he was talking to a child.
“Ugh, that’s right. Our Jihyuk is good, he’s good.”
“… … .”
“Child, you are amazing. How can you be so good? Did you want to give presents to your sisters and hyungs? Did you?”
Her hand stroking my hair, groaning and stroking me, as if not to do it, slapped me.
Han Soo-young was still looking at me with a cute gaze.
“Hey, Sooyoung. tell me how many times To the extent that the body has become younger, the mind has not degenerated… !?”
As I was speaking, someone put a hand between my armpits and hooked it up.
Then, long, slender fingers flirted with me as if playing a game, and turned my body upside down.
Amethyst-like eyes were staring at him in front of him.
It was Jin Ye Seul.
“… … .”
“… … .”
She was looking at me without saying a word.
She had always thought that she was a little creepy, but perhaps because of her young body, she couldn’t move like a frog in front of a snake.
For such a long time, Jin Ye-seul, who had thoroughly looked at me without saying a word, quickly sat me down on her lap.
Thanks to her, I muttered as if I was surprised as she touched my cheek, which was sitting facing her on her lap.
“that’s interesting.”
“what?”
“I really hate children. He’s loud, he’s stubborn, he’s selfish, he’s clever on such a subject, so he’s tired of this place. So I really hate it.”
Jin Ye-seul muttered in an indifferent voice.
Come to think of it, a story suddenly comes to mind that when she was young, she grabbed the head of an adult male, also a former hunter, with her bare hands and broke her arm because she broke the doll, and that she plucked out her sister’s fingernails alive because she touched her cherished notebook. fell
Without realizing it, my body began to tremble.
Jin Ye-seul looked at me and rubbed her cheek once more.
“What is so cute?”
She tilted her head strangely and continued to rub my cheek.
Now, the hand that was supporting my back also moved, and I started fiddling with my face with both hands.
When I grabbed her wrist as if not to do it, Jin Ye-seul firmly grabbed my face and met my gaze.
Seeing something quietly wriggling in her eyes, I quickly tightened my hand.
“Hey, Jin Ye-seul. You do it in moderation.”
“… Say goodbye to your sister He’s a bad boy.”
I have to punish you.
Jin Ye-seul muttered in a hazy voice and removed the hand holding her face.
Then he immediately grabbed my body and tried to hug me, almost instinctively pulling me out of her arms.
When he came to his senses, he seemed to have run away using even the branches of the World Tree.
Seeing me gasping and exhaling, Jin Ye-seul pouted her lips as if it was a pity.
Then, someone poked something toward his face and lifted his head to the side in surprise.
“Oh sorry. surprised… ?”
Yoona raised her hand as if to calm down.
I was finally able to relax when I saw that there was a handkerchief in her other hand.
“As my body got younger, my stamina seemed to have weakened a lot. Jihyuk, this is the first time I’ve seen you panting like this.”
She wiped the sweat from my forehead with a skillful gesture.
Then, naturally, he grabbed my hand and dragged me to the chair and sat me on it.
“Would you like something to drink?”
“uh… no. it’s okay.”
“Yeah, then, can you tell me whenever you’re thirsty?”
Lee Yu-na smiled brightly, and kept a distance as if she noticed I was uncomfortable.
The skillful appearance reminded me that she had helped a nun in an orphanage and looked after the little children.
“By the way, Jihyuk. How long are you going to look like that?”
I nodded at Choi Hyun-woo’s question as if he had been waiting for the situation to calm down.
“Perhaps half a day to a day? If you want to get a neutralizer and come back, you can always come back… .”
Recalling Minerva’s promise, I hesitated.
It was because she had asked her to remain in this figure until the effect of the drug she had taken had expired.
“But then, what happened to the two of them, leaving them together?”
“I know. Jihyuk, do you know?”
At Han Soo-young’s words, Choi Hyun-woo smirked.
“Well, I don’t know the details either.”
In fact, I almost knew what was going on.
… I didn’t want to explain it to them somehow, childishly, though.
Minerva whispered something to Ye-eun Lee and said it as a request, but then disappeared somewhere, and Ye-eun Lee left for the interview, almost half-crying because of the sudden visitor.
Ye-eun Lee was busy as always, so I thought she would, but I couldn’t get a sense of what Minerva was thinking.
Then I heard someone gently knocking on the door.
“Excuse me.”
The person who opened the door was a woman who said that she had become Lee Ye-eun’s new entourage.
As an aside, he was also the one who brought me the clothes I was going to wear right away.
“The master has a visitor.”
“For me?”
“yes.”
She, who looked to be in her late 20s at most, was bowing her head with respect to me.
She continued speaking in a quiet voice.
“At the same time, he is also a guest who visited the head of the family. Now, after finishing his business with the headmaster, he is waiting for the master.”
“May I know who it is?”
“It was Alice Blesbuck, a former professor at the Academy of Orges, and one man named her attendant.”
Alice Blesbuck.
And the man named her attendant was Cass Lyle.
“What happened?”
“sorry. Until then, I’m fine… He just told me to tell him that it was urgent. The head of state also allowed it.”
She added, carefully grooming her waving brown hair.
“You said it would be enough if you said it was for the post-processing of the case.”
There was only one thing that came to mind.
Natalia Milited.
It was clear that he had come all the way here for a problem related to her.
I nodded, got up from my seat, and cautiously got out of the chair.
“I’m going right now.”
“Yes, I will guide you.”
I walked behind her.
Then he looked at the children who were about to get up with me and said,
“You wait here.”
“Uh, why?”
“… just.”
At my words, Han Soo-young screamed like an exasperation, but that didn’t matter.
I immediately closed the door.
* * *
“Bar, did you see me just toddle around walking?”
As soon as the door closed, Han Soo-young whispered in a very reminiscent voice.
Jin Ye-seul nodded and answered.
“I guess we got bored because we kept making fun of it.”
“Ah, what should I do… If I ask you to take a picture, you will definitely be angry, right?”
“Are you going to get mad, like I told you before, Sooyoung will kill you?”
Choi Hyun-woo, who was holding back his laughter, said so.
Han Soo-young exhaled a little excitedly and said.
“I really need to study hard on the magic of change… .”
“Come to think of it, it’s not about getting younger, it’s about growing up and changing your gender.”
At Choi Hyun-woo’s words, Han Soo-young still mumbled in a hazy voice.
“miss you… But even if I ask, I won’t drink it… ?”
“Is it okay if I secretly mix it with food or drinks?”
“Hey, Yesul. That’s a crime… .”
As the three of them started talking like that, Lee Yu-na was sitting and thinking deeply about something.
She was calmly reminiscing about what Yoo Ji-hyuk had just shown her when she was young.
‘certainly… .’
Excessively conscious of the surroundings, tense, and staring.

Older than you… In a way, when they make eye contact with someone who is an adult, they are startled and wary.
There, when something came close to his face, he was startled and avoided.
I have often seen such children in orphanages.
“… … .”
Children who have been abused at home.
Such children often showed such appearances.
However, Yuuna immediately shook her head.
‘Ah, maybe.’
It’s probably just like Yoo Ji-hyuk said, his body is getting younger and he looks like that.
Because he didn’t say a single word about being affected by his mind, and he even strongly denied it.
Yuuna thought so and nodded her head.
Leaving behind some unknown embarrassment.
* * *
“Oh my God.”
Alice Blesbuck, who saw me, just rolled her eyes and muttered like that.
Cass Lyle just looked at me as if she was a little startled.
“Then, I will leave.”
“Yes, you did well. Mr. Seo-ryeong.”
While we were talking, I got to know her quite a bit and greeted her.
She smiled and closed the door silently.
“So, I heard you found me.”
I climbed into the chair and looked at Alice Blesbuck.
For some reason, she looked at me with a slightly envious face and muttered a fat smile.
“Ryle had never been like that before.”
“Great.”
Cass Lyle coughed as if not to say nonsense.
Then Alice Blesbuck stuck out her tongue slightly at me, took some pictures from her arms, and handed it to me.
After seeing it, I left a short review.
“It’s no joke to see a photo like this in this way.”
“Yeah, if someone I don’t know sees me, they’ll think I’m doing something bad.”
Alice smiled and smirked like that.
In the photo, there was Natalia Milited, tightly bound as if holding a wild beast.
I muttered as I checked the several photos one by one.
“It is clearly visible that the strength goes away as you go.”
“right. For the operation, I had to remove some strength first. So, while I was drinking only water, I kept smelling the scent that dispersed my magic. I was also given several medications.”
She calmly told a creepy story and handed me the last picture.
“And this is what it looked like yesterday.”
“This… .”
The photo was taken in a slightly different space than the previous photos.
In the photo, a girl was sitting on a chair with her eyes wide open.
Shackles were attached to his wrists, ankles, and neck.
“It’s a new look for your mother.”
Alice Blesbuck said with a silent laugh.
as if sneering.
“The body, strength, ability, age, name… Everything was taken away.”
