Became an Evil Dragon

41 – 41. Swamp (4)

“Ah! I’m going! I want to go today! Nineve Yong-yong and I are going today!”

Nineve, who was lying on the floor, swayed her arms and legs at random. What is so embarrassing is that she sheds a lot of tears and snot while crying and behaving badly.

It had been going on for about 10 minutes since I had earlier rejected her request to go play with the Meggles today.

“Take me with you! Take me with you! Haaa! I want to go!”

Is it because of my mood that this guy seems to be getting more and more spoiled?

“Hey, do you know that it’s all about spending it? no.”

However, the resolute dragon refused.

A parenting education program aired on TV in Korea. A female teacher with authority in that field from there also said that.

It is said that it is easy to get out of habit if you randomly listen to all the child’s requests.

The so-called gold side.

Considering our relationship, which has been changing lately, these changes did not feel welcome.

As I am nominally claiming to be Nineveh’s guardian, I must also take responsibility for Nineveh’s education-related problems.

I have a duty to raise this crying crybaby boy into a decent old lady!

I couldn’t imagine how this little elf who was now lying on the floor and clucking would become a mature woman.

Actually, it wouldn’t be much of a problem to take Nineve today, but I had to let him know that the world is cruel.

I don’t know, the world’s affairs are not going to be solved only by one’s own will.

Moreover, if you made a plan to play hide and seek earlier and announced it to everyone, wouldn’t you at least be responsible for your own words?

How will the hearts of the fairies, who are expecting Nineveh’s hide-and-seek, take responsibility?

With that in mind, I looked at the fairies out of the corner of my eye, but only noticed once again that they weren’t particularly happy about playing hide-and-seek with the dragon.

that’s too much

“Ugh, huh! nah! Sigh! I want to go today! Yong, it’s too much! Stupid dragon! Stupid dragon!”

Nynaeve realized that no matter how much she wiggled her arms and legs on the floor, I would not grant her request, so she finally entered the final stage of transformation.

He collapses on the floor, muttering a tearful cry. Then, as if bowing, the body was rolled into a circle.

If you put only a large fish on top, it looks like fairy sushi will be completed right away.

That was Nineve’s strong assertion that she didn’t want to see anything.

“Sirer, hide it from Nineveh. Sirer.”

As she lay on the ground, she cried incessantly and muttered in a broken voice.

This is it. When this happens, whether it’s going out or playing hide-and-seek, everything is gone. No matter how much I try to comfort Nineve in this state, she will be depressed all day and will cling to me.

It’s not that I won’t take you, so why do you want to go that far right now? Whether it’s going today or a few days later, actually going to see the Meglites must be the same.

Even if you go today, you will not run out of gold.

I don’t think Ninev will be very happy when he sees Megl.

“Up, mighty dragon!”

As I was thinking that, I suddenly heard an unexpected voice next to me.

His voice trembled in fear as he spoke.

The owner of the voice was Fairy.

“Mi, the lowly fairy has something to beg for!”

An orange-haired fairy who jumped forward and spoke to me while all the other fairies had fallen behind.

All the other fairies looked at him from behind and were restless with expressions as if they were crazy.

If you look at the memory with the dragon’s excellent memory, this guy’s name is Ruri.

The dragon’s memory, which never forgets even a small thing, was to the point where, contrary to my will, I could memorize all the names of fairies I wasn’t interested in.

“What.”

Right now, all my attention is focused on Nineve, who is lying on the floor and crying, so I answer indifferently.

At first, I didn’t even like fairies.

I’m busy trying to appease Nineve right now, but if she says something strange, should I just get rid of it? In the midst of violent thoughts, I heard the words of Fairy and Ruri.

The orange-haired fairy trembled in front of me and spoke with her head bowed.

“Can you take Nineve with you? please! hehehehe! no! I’m sorry, help me, I’m wrong, I’m wrong, I’m wrong, help me!”

Ruri slightly raised her head and faced the dragon without speaking, her face turned as white as a sheet of paper, and she fell to the floor, foaming at the mouth.

A fairy whose entire body trembled as she fell to the ground, unable to keep up the flapping of her wings. Looking down at him, I felt a sense of wonder.

A fairy who is afraid of me stepped forward for Nineveh? why?

Fairies are selfish by nature, so they rarely step forward for others. If you mess around with the dragon, they will be the ones who know better than anyone else that the day is the day of the ancestral rite. Because one of the fairies was burned to death in front of my eyes in a miserable state.

“why?”

“I made a mistake, please help me. to? yes?”

“Answer me. Don’t make me repeat the same thing one more time.”

“hehehehe! yes! All right!”

The orange-haired fairy started talking on the floor, as if she didn’t have the strength to fly again. Suppressed by the fear of being overwhelming in front of the dragon, Ruri, who had no nerve to lie, confessed the truth without hesitation.

“I-I’ve been sorry for Nineve ever since Bell told me not to play with Nineve! But I was afraid of Bell! I was also afraid of being outcast like Nineveh! That’s why, to Nineve, Ruri is sorry! hehehe! no! Ruri is being cheeky! sorry! Please do something that never happened! I was wrong, help me!”

“Hmm.”

He strokes his chin in an unexpected situation. I never dreamed that a fairy like this would come out.

Well, if you think about it, just because a fairy doesn’t have the same personality. If there was a fairy who did not like to play with Nineve, there could be a fairy who wanted to play with Nineve.

And there must have been brave fairies who could overcome the fear of death and step forward.

“That’s right, Nineveh.”

“Sniff.”

Nineve, who had been crying on her face, lifted her head slightly and looked at Ruri. A brief moment of unidentifiable emotion passed through Nineveh’s eyes.

“…….”

Nineveh lowered her head in silence again.

Fairy who dared to jump out in front of the dragon and begged. If it was a red dragon, he would have been angry and burned it right away.

However, this was not the time for the moon to rise, and it was me who was moving the dragon that had become strange, but was still human.

Although he didn’t like the fairies, he thought that the existence of this fairy named Ruri might be a good teaching material for Nineveh’s emotional education.

The presence of friends who do not succumb to threats or fear is a very important position in the formation of the self in childhood.

Well, though the courage I tried so hard was quickly broken again.

Still, it is rare to have the courage to step out in front of the dragon, even for a brief moment.

Most of the humans who are much bigger than the fairies are scared and tremble at the mere sight of a dragon.

The unexpected appearance of the fairy made me feel better. Nineveh’s perception of fairies, who regarded them as mere toys to use, might change.

The dragon laughed.

“Okay, it feels good. Nineve, wake up.”

***

A huge sun hanging right in the middle of the sky.

The midday sun was beating down on the swamp.

In the middle of the swamp, a colony of frogmen.

In the middle of the village, an unusually large number of Frogmen were gathered in one place.

And in the center of the gathered Frogmen was their altar and a small round object placed on it.

Frog eggs that lightly reflect light on the white surface, as if sprinkled with gold dust.

A special egg that was formerly the king of the Frogmen and the newcomer, the Red Dragon, who himself gave his name to it.

And since the egg was about to hatch, all the Frogmen of the tribe were now gathered.

Usually Frogmen’s eggs hatched in the middle of the night when the darkness came, but this special egg began to shake little by little during the time when the sun was up and started to show signs of hatching.

“Megl.”

The chief of the tribe of frogmen, the guardian of the nest, declared with a serious expression.

Their leader is ready to awaken.

Just as all the frogmen were silently waiting for the moment of hatching, the swamp became dark in an instant.

A huge shadow of something covered the village.

A moment of darkness too brief to be a cloud that covered the sun.

When the Frogmen looked up at the sky feeling puzzled, there was

There was a huge red dragon.

““ ““ ““Megul-!””””””

A huge cheer erupted from the mouths of the Frogmen who confirmed the appearance.
