“Ke keheuk?!”

“Answer me!!! right now!!!”

Uncharacteristically excited, Rusona forgot her usual tone and brushed off Batis. As if it was only natural that he would not be able to answer anything when his throat was choked, Batis, who was strangled by his collar, just shuddered at Rusona’s questioning and barely struggled while being picked up by Rusona.

They say that life is a tragedy when seen up close and a comedy when seen from afar.

However, since there was nothing good going on with this turmoil, I slipped the smile off my lips and turned my head to Soldos, who was wearing a very troubled expression.

Already next to him, a man who appeared to be an employee of a bar without a sign was standing next to him and whispering something.

Perhaps seeing the golden scales covering some of Rusona’s white skin, they judged that she was a guest they could not calm down and asked Soldos to dry them.

He took a step closer to Soldos and spoke to him.

“Since the Dragon Princess seems a little too excited, how about intervening a little?”

He was thinking hard about something, and when he heard what I said, he smiled brightly with a face that realized something.

“Right. You were there!”

“yes?”

Soldos’ words made me feel uneasy. He grabbed me by the shoulder and gave me an uncharacteristically cunning raccoon look.

“Let me tell you. If the drunken and rampaging drunkards were imperial citizens, I would have tried to use my strength somehow…”

Soldos glanced at Batis, who was still being robbed, and quickly continued.

“It seems like the Dragon Princess is really excited. It would be really embarrassing if I tried to stop that riot myself and ended up arguing with the Dragon Princess. Wouldn’t His Majesty’s honor be ruined if he did something disgraceful with the royal family of a foreign country as an escort for His Majesty? So when I was in trouble, you, who happened to be friends with the Dragon Princess, were by my side!”

He turned around, but in the end, he meant to ask for help because he couldn’t rush out because of his status.

thud!!!

“Answer me!!!”

Just as I was about to answer, Rusona grabbed Batis by the leash and pinned her to the wall.

“I don’t think you’ll calm down easily just because I’m leaving…”

“At that time, I’ll really step in and calm Princess Rusona. So, can’t you give me a word before that?”

“Haa…”

I let out a short sigh and took a step forward.

“I heard you don’t get free alcohol just about anywhere. You got this all wrong.”

Soldos’ expression immediately brightened when he gave a roundly affirmative answer.

“I trust only you.”

“Don’t expect too much. I’m really just going to talk.”

“Okay.”

By the time I approached the agitated Lesona to say something, the situation had already heated up.

“It’s fine if you don’t want to answer until the end.”

The eyes of the golden snake, which split vertically, shone with a deeper golden light. Rusona clenched one fist and raised it.

“Then, it’s enough just to make it into a state where you can respond in a compliant manner.”

“Kek?! Kek?!”

I heard a little bit of an unfair scream from somewhere. If I left it like this, I thought I would really hit her, so I walked a little faster and approached her.

“King Rusona…”

Before I could finish my words, her fists moved like beams of light.

Pak!!!

When the palms covered with bright yellow scales and the white fists collided, a harsh blow rang out. Sensing that he would be seriously injured if he was hit, Batis blocked Rusona’s fist.

“Block?”

Rusona’s pupils split even longer vertically with an eerie smile.

I got it right.

Batis took advantage of the gap created by blocking Rusona’s fists and slashed the hand that was strangling his throat and widened the distance behind him. Unlike Rusona, pale yellow scales sprouted quickly from all over his skin.

“Kelok Kelok.”

He let out a few breaths and looked at his sister, still touching his reddish neck here and there.

“Since the old days, no one can stop you when the tap turns, so I tried to treat you moderately, but even if you do, it’s too much! Are you trying to hit me in the face with those vicious fists? Then what if my face gets hurt?”

A deep ravine dented on Rusona’s pure white forehead at Batis’ absurd answer.

“Isn’t that the answer to open your mouth at most? Well, my brother has never said anything sane with that snout since he was little, so in a way, it might be natural.”

“what?! hey! Are you done talking now?”

“no. If you want to, even if you curse for seven days and nights, it won’t be enough, so there’s no need to make my mouth suffer. It’s not my mouth that should suffer, it’s my brother.”

Her white hands were completely covered with golden scales, and sharp claws protruded. She lowered her stance and spread the wings behind her back.

“Today, I will engrave an unforgettable lesson on that mug, my brother’s only pride, so take it sweetly.”

If I waited longer, I wouldn’t have time to intervene, so I sneaked one step closer to Rusona’s back.

“That… the princess…”

Batis, who finally found me, shouted urgently at me.

“hey!!! You can’t approach him from behind when he’s so excited!!!”

“yes? What is that…”

‘Hat killed!!!’

call to come.

A golden light flashed. To put it correctly, an agitated Rsona jabbed her claws in the direction the sound came from.

fleeting moment. I regretted getting involved in a sibling fight.

Even at the moment when my head was calmly regretting it, my body reacted to the attack as quickly as always.

The black metal threads protruding from the bracelet took shape in an instant, protecting my right hand. I stretched out my fist as it was and slashed the trajectory of my claws.

Caang!!!

The claws and the Immortalium gauntlets collided, echoing the clear sound of metal clashing. When Rusona realized that her attack had been deflected, she stomped her toes like flowing water.

I tried to block the tip of my toe digging into my vital point with the Immortalium gauntlet that stretched to my elbow, but her toe stopped exactly an inch in front of my body.

The vertically narrowed pupils opened slightly, and Rusona murmured lowly.

“M…Renak? What are you doing here?”

I brushed off my slightly tingling right hand and sighed deeply before replying.

“I got a free drink and got it wrong. Are you calming down now? I didn’t know this before, but Princess Rusona was a much more fiery person than I thought.”

The golden scales that appeared on her skin along with her wings slowly disappeared. Barely calm, she looked around slowly.

After seeing the first floor of the tavern in chaos, a blush filled with embarrassment rose on Rusona’s white cheeks, who finally grasped the situation.

“I couldn’t control my anger and showed an ugly side… Really, as a royal, I have no face…”

“I’m fine. Still, the disorganized store looks like it needs some repairs.”

Rusona nodded slightly.

“I will make sure to pay for the things I damaged. By the way, are you not hurt anywhere?”

The slightly tingling hand had long since recovered. I shook my head slowly.

“I am okay. By the way, what the hell happened that made you excited unlike a princess?”

“ah.”

She let out a short exclamation and quickly rolled her eyes to find Batis, who was trying to get out of the commotion.

“Stop now! Now where do you dare to run away!!!”

Batis very naturally turned around and smiled awkwardly at his sister.

“I? I’m running away! I… Yes! I just want a glass of ice cold water! I was just trying to order a glass of water!”

Rusona squinted her eyes and pointed her finger at the staff member standing next to Soldos.

“There is an employee over there who will take your brother’s order, but could you explain why you were taking it in the opposite direction?”

Batis rolled his eyes and let out an awkward laugh.

“That’s right… I didn’t see that! After all, he is my brother!”

“Haa…”

Let out a sigh that rose from the depths of her chest, and Rusona bowed her head toward Soldos, who was standing next to the staff.

“I have shown the disgrace in front of Sir Soldos.”

Soldos put on an empty smile that was completely unsuitable for a young face.

“I am okay.”

Rusona sighed weakly once more and went over to the store staff to apologize, and told them to send the claim for compensation for the broken items to the Rose Palace today.

In response to Lasona’s threat that if I ever escaped, she would report everything to the Dragon Kingdom right away, Batis just stood next to me, rolling her eyes, until the matter was finished to some extent.

No, to be precise, it was creeping towards me.

“Why are you getting closer? It’s a little burdensome.”

“That’s because, thanks to Rusona’s good opinion of you, she won’t be as angry in front of you as she was before!”

“In the first place, shouldn’t you do something that would make Princess Rusona angry? So, why the hell did you pay for scales and claws to pay for this money?”

“Shh!!!”

Batis quickly covered his mouth with one finger and whispered to me, probably worried that Rusona might hear what I said and run a fever.

“I never sold my scales and claws for money!”

“Then didn’t you say that earlier?”

At my reply, Batis slightly furrowed her brow.

“You may have seen it, but before, Rusona gave me time to answer? I just couldn’t say a word because I was choking!”

Certainly it was.

“Then why didn’t you make an excuse once you were released?”

Batis scratched the back of his head and shrugged.

“At that time, I didn’t say anything because I got a little feverish about getting hit in the face.”

‘killing!’

Mother’s admiration that he is very good at earning hawks. I honestly and deeply agreed with my mother’s thoughts.

“Is it really true that you never dig scales and claws?”

As if the situation had been sorted out, Rusona approached us and asked a question to Batis. To that question, Batis answered as if he had been waiting.

“okay! Didn’t I sell it?”

“Really?”

“uh!”

“Then what happened to the story I heard in my ears?”

Batis smiled broadly and thumped his chest.

“I just donated a little because I earnestly requested that I desperately need my scales and claws for some research!”

Subtle wrinkles formed on Rusona’s forehead.

“Did you say donation donation? Then can I ask just one more question?”

“then!”

“After talking with the staff here, I heard that my older brother, who, as far as I know, had no pennies, bought alcohol here with money I don’t know where he came from. Where did you get that money from?”

At Rusona’s question, Batis smiled very proudly.

“Thank you so much for making a little ‘donation’, and they immediately gave you a full ‘key money’.

Rusona shouted, grabbing Batis by the leash and shaking it wildly.

“The public says they sell things for money!!! You idiot!!!”

“Keheuk?!”
