Duke, I’m Going To live As A Sheep!

 

Observing that I was showing interest, Zion smiled sweetly.

 

I flinched at the moment of being caught in a trap, but it was true that I wanted to hear the backstory behind it.

 

“A Dragon’s upbringing is determined by how their guardian nurtures them. Before and after being born from an egg, they form their own adult image based on what they see, hear, and feel. After that, they make a hard cocoon on their own, go inside, and become an adult.”

 

“Uh-…that means…”

 

It sounds pretty dangerous.

 

That implies that if it falls into the hands of a villain, an evil dragon will be born.

 

It can also be used in warfare as a way to kill people.

 

I think I could write down 79 ways to raise a dragon in a wrong way just by rolling my head around, but what about the others?

 

Noticing that I had even pointed out things he hadn’t said, Zion opened his mouth languidly.

 

“That’s why we have to protect the dragon egg. When a baby is born, you have to raise it well.”

 

“Uh—— Yeah, I guess so. But wait a minute.”

 

“What’s wrong?”

 

“The mother dragon entrusted you with an egg?”

 

“Yeah.”

 

“Lies.”

 

I immediately looked at Zion with eyes full of disbelief.

 

If I were a mother, I would never entrust my children to someone like him.

 

It’s evident that it will grow up wrong!  [talking about the dragon]

 

There is no one in the world as dangerous as him!

 

“Well— I know what you’re thinking, but from the mother dragon’s point of view, I must have been the most reassured. As long as I have received the quest, I will carry it out perfectly.” – Zion.

 

Hey, be suspicious [Freesia telling this to herself.]

 

In other words, performing the request flawlessly means hiding in someone else’s ranch?

 

I looked at the egg-laying in the corner of the table with a pitiful gaze.

 

“You’re in a lot of trouble too…” [Freesia talking to the egg]

 

It’s hard to be born into the world without a mother.

 

If it grows up looking at Zion’s face, I think it’ll become a handsome dragon.

 

I’m not sure about anything else, but it’s worth noting that Zion has the greatest appearance.

 

“So it’s safe to stay here as long as the location is not revealed rather than going out.” -Zion

 

Pretending not to understand what I said, Zion emphasized once more.

 

“Let me live here.”

 

This time it was my turn to pretend I didn’t hear.

 

” Still, I want to pull that rope and call a wizard.” -Freesia.

 

“By the way, if a high-level wizard sees that egg, he might go crazy and rush into it.” -Freesia.

 

“That’s very natural. The magic contained in the dragon’s egg is very pure.

Just by drinking, an advanced wizard will immediately rise to the level of an archmage.”

 

Drink?

 

Are you going to make a hole in the egg and drink it like a palm tree?

 

It’s sad to live without a mother, but to be killed before even being born!

 

Whoa!

 

It’s a dilemma.

 

It can’t be this way, and it can’t be that way.

 

Fortunately, this pretty house is not like a cabin but a small mansion.

 

There are four bedrooms, so there was no problem getting them to stay.

 

I pretended to be deceived and asked.

 

“What is the range of the ranch where the nonhuman races cannot enter?”

 

“Inside the white fence.”

 

“It’s too narrow!”

 

I screamed without realizing it.

 

How will I catch fish in the river?

 

There is a stream nearby, and Jade said salmon appeared from the side of the river!

 

Moreover, picking up the wild walnuts of my dreams and smashing them with a hammer to eat them?

 

It’s all outside the fence!

 

Besides, I have to pick up the shepherd dog Bingo gave birth to.

 

What about the dream of exchanging cherry, strawberry, and apple grown on another’s farm?

 

“You just have to wait until the egg hatches. Then, after the hatched dragon recognizes me as a master or friend, it doesn’t matter. Because I can tell the newborn not to follow other people.”

 

“How long will it take to hatch? One year?”

 

“..It will be born soon. So don’t worry.”

 

“But I’m worried.”

 

“I’ll protect you too. Since I am a pretty talented mercenary.”

 

“Who told you, and I don’t believe you.”

 

Zion smiled softly and pushed his face in, but seeing it, I jumped over and had no intention of accepting him.

 

Instead, I clenched my teeth not to hit Zion’s face like that, believing only in his handsome face.

 

But it was also true that parts of me were difficult to get rid of right away.

 

First of all, the motherless young dragon was easy to control, and if it were already known that there were dragon eggs here, everyone would try to find out Zion’s whereabouts even by torturing me.

 

All I needed to do was ask my father and brother for help, but then the happy ranch life was goodbye forever.

 

Bye bye-bye.

 

“No!”

 

It’s dangerous, so it’s obvious that they’ll tell me to come back.

 

No, no, no!

 

Why did I come out?

 

Why did the situation become like this!

 

That wasn’t enough.

 

“.—-Then there is only one way.”

 

I clenched my fist.

 

Yeah, he won’t be of much use, but one face is even, so let’s use it for ornamental purposes.

 

Being a mercenary, he must be in good health.

 

Then he’ll be good at running errands.

 

I breathed heavily and spoke clearly.

 

“Be my shepherd.”

 

If you don’t like it, then leave.

 

“Shepherd?”

 

After a moment of silence, Zion asked slowly.

 

I rolled my eyes and pointed at him, who couldn’t understand my words.

 

“Yeah, you have to work as a shepherd for the price of feeding and putting you to bed! Moreover, you have to herd them! things happen because of you, so you have to compensate me for doing these tasks!”
