Became a Hatchling of the Grand Duke of the North

chapter 21



21 – A young dragon learns magic. (2)

[Because those who covet dragon hearts always use gold and silver treasure as bait to devise a guardian dragon…]

Lucrecia’s eyes narrowed as she stared at the booklet.

‘…Dragon Heart.’

Now that the young dragon has been born.

The news was going to spread throughout the continent by riding on rumors in one way or another.

Regardless of the safety of the world, I think of those greedy rogues who will come looking for the dragon’s heart.

She was lost in her thoughts for a long time with her book open.

* * * *

‘Come to think of it, it’s kind of strange.’

A warm fireside.

Han thought as he rolled over on the cushion next to him.

Thinking about it, it was somehow strange.

This is a different world.

However, common sense in this world was, in many respects, fundamentally similar to the previous world.

‘Isn’t there a big difference in most of the different worlds that usually appear in novels in some way? It must be a completely different world, but why are there so many similarities with Earth?’

For example, the existence of the awakened. If not, the clothes or social class of the people around you.

Definitely there are subtle differences, but most of them are very similar to their previous lives.

The existence of magical power was the source of power that existed in all things on Earth.

It is the so-called origin of life that exists in all things and living things.

For example, water flows. Or even if it’s not an obvious truth like everything in the world falls from top to bottom by applying the law of gravity.

In this world, there were many corners that were strangely similar to the world of the previous life.

‘The same is true of the costumes of the maids and knights who were wandering around, as well as the tableware and the architectural style of this place that I saw a while ago. How could it be that everyone has seen it at least once?’

There is nothing foreign about it.

All of them were familiar to the eye.

If you think about it, there are not just one or two odd corners.

It wasn’t just the lifestyle of the people around him.

The same was the case with other animals and plants, for example.

‘The fruits I saw in Lucia’s room a while ago. It was just what everyone knew.’

The things Han saw were all things he did not know.

‘Things like pears and apples. There were even tangerines.’

Even the species and shapes of animals and plants he knew perfectly matched.

Although this is a remote northern part of the continent, it is impossible to objectively compare it to the Earth he was originally from.

Most of the things that exist here are obviously similar to the background of the Middle Ages on Earth.

‘…Is it just a coincidence? Maybe I’m simply overthinking it.’

But it’s a completely different world.

It was obviously strange in many ways that a different world that had no contact with Earth had so many aspects similar to conventional common sense.

If it was the common sense of the ecosystem on Earth that he knew that it would be completely different just by crossing one sea,

Even though the world itself has changed, maybe this is-.

‘No.’

But within,

Han decided to stop worrying about him.

‘Let’s just stop worrying about that. It’s not the answer I’ll come up with just because I think about it anyway.’

In the end, he was reincarnated and reborn as a hatchling, and his life began from now on.

With not a very long time since I was born, these questions cannot be resolved any time soon.

As we live, the day will come when we will face each other.

Having finished his thoughts for a while, he slowly got up from his seat.

Then, stretching out his long body, he sighed and stretched out.

‘Shall we go see Luciana soon?’

Han can now fly freely.

He doesn’t just mean flying for a while.

For quite a long time, free and long proper flight was possible.

Now I have the confidence that I can move enough without the direct help of the maids anymore.

‘Before, I didn’t have enough mana and didn’t have much stamina, so I used to run out of mana quickly after flying for a while… But not anymore.’

As a result of a noticeable increase in body size through steady growth,

It means that the body itself has strength.

Then he should be able to properly find Lucia’s room with all his strength.

When Han thought of his contractor in his room,

For some reason, he sensed himself pounding in his chest.

Dragon Heart. Dragon heart.

Perhaps it also seemed to be very aware of the existence of the contractor.

But before that, there’s something we need to do first.

‘Let’s go see my treasures one last time.’

While doing so, Han peeked under his cushion.

The piles of gold coins that have been hidden under the cushions shine brilliantly in the light of the window.

[Kihii-.]

Han smiled contentedly.

Here was his treasure that he did not dare to give away to anyone even until the day he died.

With a sense of inner contentment leaking out, he again felt the strong urge to roll over the pile of gold coins, but he managed to shake off the thought and hid the cushion.

It seems that this is the nature of dragons from the beginning.

Han soon felt uneasy about whether the gold coins under the cushion were in place or whether the number was still the same.

He lifted his head, trying hard not to fall.

Really, the Balaur’s obsession and anxiety about the treasure was amazing even in his eyes.

To the extent that I already feel uneasy even though I only took my eyes off it for a moment, this level is hysterical.

‘No. Right now, seeing Lucia is more important than that. I’m also curious about how he’s usually doing.’

Flutter -.

Han spread his wings wide and rose little by little.

‘There are no people watching…?’

Meanwhile, Han looked behind him.

I heard the sound beyond the roughly closed door,

Even now, it seems that the maids are still busy running around outside the corridor doing something.

No one was looking at him yet.

At this level, there is no problem in escaping.

Han, who flew through the sky and approached the window, began to push the window with all his strength.

However, size is size and weight is weight,

A lot longer than that, the enormous window seemed unwilling to budge.

However, Han did not have only small physical strength.

He raised his mana and started pushing with all his might.

Kik-. Kiyi-.

Then little by little. Slowly but firmly, the huge window began to open.

Han’s eyes widened.

‘Oh! It’s opening, little by little, but it’s opening!’

Through the crack he barely opened with all his might, Han escaped outside.

* * * *

Whee Oh Oh!

Outside there was a fierce wind that was raging.

But even in the midst of this.

Han was struggling to maintain his body while flying through the sky.

‘It’s difficult because the wind is strong, but I can do it at this level.’

Occasionally a very strong wind blows,

As a result, Han’s body in flight often stumbled, but in the end, he maintained his flight.

[…]

Han lowered his head subtly.

Then I looked down at the dizzyingly high view of the castle.

‘The castle I was in was so huge.’

Originally, the place where Han was located belonged to a high-rise building so high that it was really speechless.

It was the top floor of the castle, completely cut off from the outside world.

Whee Oh Oh!

As I flapped my wings little by little while staying close to the wall of the castle,

After a while, I saw a terrace decorated with pretty colorful flowers and flower beds.

This terrace was also a place in his memory.

A familiar place is the outside terrace connected to Lucia’s room.

Tak.

Han landed there softly and settled down.

I folded the wings I had spread so far, and landed on the ground with all four feet.

‘There must be Lucia in this?’

With that, Han put his front paws close to the huge window and peered inside the line.

As expected, Lucia could be seen inside.

[Kisi, kiik-!]

But Han.

Rather than expressing delight at the sight of his contractor, he was taken aback and turned his head away.

As if he had just finished taking a shower,

It was because I could see Lucia’s body wet with water.

But it wasn’t all about Han turning his head.

[Huh?]

It was because Lucia, who was wiping her wet hair with a towel, inadvertently turned to Han, who was clinging to the window.

[Uh, uh uh…]

Guardian Dragon and Lucia.

The eyes of the two met.

In a situation I had never even imagined. Suddenly, her, her Lucia’s mouth fell open.

[Su, Guardian Dragon!]

Startled, she screamed as soon as she screamed.

She ran at once and threw her window open.

Then he held the guardian dragon Han in his arms and showed embarrassment.

[Guardian Dragon! How did you come here? It must be quite high here, how the hell…!]

But Han.

There was no bird to answer her question.

[Kiii-.]

He just covered my eyes with his paws.

Because he was busy covering his sight somehow.

I couldn’t see it anywhere I tried.

It was because she wasn’t wearing one of her clothes properly.

But even with her eyes closed, Han still felt it.

It was because she was held intact in her arms.

‘Oh, I want you to wear at least some clothes…’
