Chapter.29 Spring Flowers

Spring is the season when colorful spring flowers decorate the hillsides and the scent of flowers fills the air. Lulin’s 800th birthday is just 3 days away.

Even so, it is said that after meeting me, he received a birthday gift, and before that, he had no sense of birthdays.

It’s my first birthday since we met.

Spring flowers were in full bloom like this back then too.

.

.

.

“What is this?”

“This is a birthday cake.”

For dragons, the date of birth is of little significance, except that the Eucharist is celebrated on the 800th birthday. I know that fact because I heard it from an elder while asking about Lurin’s birth date.

“Okay, since the rare is gone, I should at least celebrate my birthday.”

A small rare inherited from Rurin’s mother.

That was when it was shattered before my eyes.

As I was wondering if there was something I could do for this dragon, who was curled up drooping with no energy at all, the first thing that came to mind was a birthday cake.

“I don’t know about that.”

At this time, Lulin’s activity level was zero. It was a time when I was filled with gloom thanks to the long time I spent alone.

Although the rare was destroyed, spring flowers were in full bloom in the forest, making it even more memorable. How can we forget the scene of flower petals falling down from the candles placed on top of the cake?

The long number of candles was assumed to be 100 years old.

“It’s our custom to blow this, eat cake, and give gifts. Let’s sleep.”

I thrust the cake in front of Lurin, who was crouching down.

“Lurin, you say this is sweet?”

If I think about it now, I was a carnivore from that point on. Because he showed interest in those sweet words and raised his head slightly.

“Now, let me sing a song for you. Hmm, happy birthday, Lurin, Lurin. Happy birthday. Congratulations on the birth of our Lurin, who doesn’t really look good with a pouty expression!”

Thinking about it now makes me cringe a little. I sang happy birthday alone.

And I had Rurin blow out the candles.

“delicious?”

“Sweet!”

Lurin nodded and ate the cream from the cake, putting a lot of it on her cheeks and mouth.

So I put a gold bracelet on his wrist that dragons like. From then on, the gifts continued to be gold bracelets.

Until I gave her the earrings before.

“this… .”

“It’s a gift. “Humans give gifts on birthdays.”

“What is this? “It sparkles.”

Rurin looked at the gold bracelet, then at me, and then at the gold bracelet again. I don’t know what Lulin was thinking at this time.

“Lurin I’m leaving. “I can’t stay here forever.”

“… … “Do whatever you want.”

Rurin bowed her head again at my words. I vividly remember fiddling with the gold bracelet I had just given as a gift.

At this time, Lulin had yet to hold me or do anything. But for some reason, I didn’t feel like leaving Rurin behind. We’ve been together for quite some time already.

He’s such a pretty guy with a lively smile that he only occasionally shows. Now that rare is gone, it will become even more shriveled.

So, I grabbed Lurin’s arm and helped her up.

“shall we go together? I’m going to go kill the dragons. “After that, I plan to live as I want.”

But Lulin did not answer. He looks at me with expressionless eyes.

“Now look.”

Pour magic into the forest on the other side of the broken dragon lair. The trees were blown up and blown up to compact the ground and the ground was then continued to be dug up.

Then groundwater gushes out.

When cold groundwater collects in dug-out ground, this was actually the beginning of making hot springs, which we occasionally made.

“If you want to break it, break it. If you want to leave it like this, leave it out!”

Pooh puddle! I threw Rurin into the puddle and I went in too. I remember feeling very cold.

“Let’s live freely and stop making faces like we live alone in this world. you idiot. It’s funny that dragons don’t know how to do anything like that. ruler!”

When cold water is sprinkled on Rurin’s face, Rurin’s body begins to tremble.

“What are you doing?!”

Then, his temper exploded and a water whirlwind was created.

Fuuuuuuuuuuck!

As if the puddle had been hit by a bomb, all the water shot up and poured down on me.

So I told him.

“Look, isn’t it fun to act like you are?”

“… … .”

The problem is that the emotion is anger. Lurin huffed and then looked at me again.

“You… Why are you always by my side, even though I tried to kill you and of course I couldn’t? I am… .”

“I don’t know about that. I don’t want to think about all that. You only have one life, so just live it the way you want. So let’s leave. In this damn place. I’ll have to talk to the elder again to take you with me, but I tell him not to mess around. Hehehe. huh? Yap yap!”

Then, I splashed water on my face again and heard a loud cry.

“Uuuuuu cold!”

It’s a very common cry now, but back then the cry had a slightly different meaning. Because it was almost the first time I was able to express myself honestly.

.

.

.

.

The memories of the past are still vivid. When I see the spring flowers on the hill, I am reminded of the countless flower petals that fell into the puddle.

But now he has become really active. You never lie about your feelings.

That’s why it’s childlike and cute, sometimes beautiful, and sometimes funny.

“What are you thinking like that? Even though the dragon came, he didn’t even pretend to know. It’s getting worse and worse! “You guy.”

A word that shatters my memories and thoughts.

When I came to my senses, there was a man with black hair standing in front of me.

“Elder?”

That was Medidana, the elder of the Black Dragon.

Now that I think about it, I thought it was time to come. Since Lurin’s birthday is around the corner, he said he would follow his words and come to check the rare.

Of course, on the other hand, I thought that since he had threatened me like that, he might not show up.

“Why did you think I wouldn’t show up?”

Like a dragon that has lived for thousands of years, it must have read my expression and mumbles something harsh.

“Iknow, right.”

“You bastard, this is different from not bothering you and Rurin. Lurin’s Eucharist ritual and rares are simply dragon rules. Are you going to deny that Lurin is a dragon? Are you trying to completely banish me from the dragon world?”

“No, of course not.”

“You have to be recognized as a Eucharist to get married and have an heir.”

As Medidana said that while crossing her arms, I had nothing to say.

It’s definitely one thing for someone like Niess to no longer appear, and another thing for Rurin to be recognized as a saint.

Even if we don’t get recognition, it’s okay if we just live together for the rest of our lives.

If that life ends unilaterally.

For example, if I die first, I can’t have Lurin remain as a half-dragon.

Additionally, dragons must undergo the Eucharist ceremony before they can have children.

“Then, shall we take a look at some rare places? “For now, it looks like the due date has been met.”

The elder looked at me with a faint smile. The look on his face asks why he is not going to guide me to the rare place.

So I guided them.

Medidana looked around at the rare with honest admiration. They seem to be very impressed with the warehouses and the humanoid bedrooms, especially the liquor warehouse.

“This… “That’s amazing.”

yes.

It’s not just something I make and praise myself for.

Honestly, I’m sure it’s not easy to find a rare decorated to this degree. Usually, a rare is a place where you can sleep in an empty space with the body of a large dragon.

After going around the rare, we were finally guided to the most important main room.

“This is where you can return to the main body. “Lurin doesn’t want to look like a dragon, but its stability has been verified with other dragons.”

When Sereina mentioned the pointless prank she had played, Medidana narrowed her eyes and asked back.

“is it? It’s big. It’s magnificent. But is there something missing?”

Not enough?

He said it was great, and as I was savoring it, wondering what he was going to do, the elder pointed to the ceiling with his finger.

“Is there not enough ceiling?”

“Hmm, don’t you think it would have been better if they had wallpapered that ceiling with gold or something? “If you want to live with Rurin, you have to show that level of wealth, right?”

The elder looked up at the dragon body room and shook his head, saying he didn’t like the marble.

It’s like repeating what Lurin said when she went to the imperial palace.

Blood can’t be deceived, right?

“Well, I plan to increase it slowly. “Who ends things like this?”

“Hoo? okay? “Don’t forget those words.”

As soon as I heard those words, I felt like I had caught something again. As expected, this dragon is not ordinary. The elder smiled faintly and walked towards the hot springs behind the main room.

“What is this place again?”

He opened the door and looked around with a curious expression.

“This… Is it a human bathhouse? I’m glad I intentionally polymorphed. where.”

In fact, since he had even served as a human emperor, he must have experienced the imperial palace’s exclusive bathhouse, so it was natural that he would be familiar with it.

The elder took off his clothes without any discomfort and entered the bathtub and sat down.

“You come in too.”

He gestures for me to come too. The water in the main bath was hot. It’s time for Rurin to wake up, so they heat the water.

As I followed him in, the elder immediately spoke.

“Well, the rare itself seems to be huge and well made. That’s good. Lurin will like it.”

“Yes, I liked having a rare item so much that I even dug the ground myself. Anyway, then, did you pass?”

The elder soaked a towel in hot water, placed it on his forehead, entered the bath, laid down, and said,

“Actually, it doesn’t really matter. This is a story where all you need is a decent rare. “If you say you fail, there’s no way you can just sit still.”

After saying that much, the elder kept his mouth shut. There is silence for a moment, as if bathing in hot water.

“so… ?”

What broke the silence was an incomprehensible word.

What’s going on all of a sudden? When I look at the elder in response to the strange question, a frustrated expression returns. On the contrary, I feel frustrated.

“Why are you looking like that? Lurin is about to undergo the Holy Communion ceremony. When will you get married?”

“Marriage?”

The elder has an expression that seems completely natural. It’s like saying that the sun rises in the east.

That shamelessness is so similar to Lulin’s expression.

It was so familiar that I almost said something stupid.

I may be stronger than the elder, but that doesn’t mean I can play tricks on Lulin’s grandfather. So be patient.

“You can’t say you were planning on playing with our child.”

The elder stood up from the bath with a very serious expression.

“No matter how much power you have, I can’t tolerate that much, let alone my everything. never!”

“Weren’t you opposed to the relationship between me and Lurin?”

“I have no intention of denying marriage to Rurin if she likes it. No, rather, I thought you were the right person to protect Rurin until the end, didn’t you?”

“That is correct.”

“Then you should get married.”

“I don’t want to rush that.”

“You’d better hurry.”

“yes?”

“What I’m saying is that if I don’t marry Lulin quickly, trouble will happen. “It could cause another discord.”
