Chapter.38 You are not there

“Hey Lurin!”

“Don’t call me that! be impertinent. To call me, great being! Call it! With respect! Do you understand?”

“Lurin!”

“Ugh, I told you not to call me that! be impertinent! “So cocky!”

Lurin, with her arms crossed, glares at me, disgusted by my name being called. But I had no intention of stopping.

“Lurin.”

“Keuuuu.”

I hate it. I truly hated it. Eyebrows rise sky high. The change in facial expression is slightly funny.

“Lurin. Lurin. Lurin. Lurin.”

“be impertinent. be impertinent. be impertinent. be impertinent. be impertinent!”

I called Lurin 4 times and she got cocky and called me 5 times.

4 Lulin and 5 Cheeks.

Then, let’s add some seasoning there.

“i get it. okay. Then let me change it, great being!”

“be impertinent!”

Even though I called it whatever I wanted, it was still arrogant. Of course, I made a mistake thinking that I was calling him Lurin again.

That’s my intention too.

“Oh really? People shouldn’t be arrogant. “I called him a great being and he got arrogant, so Lurin!”

I counterattacked again with Lurin. However, the call that he was arrogant did not come back. I was so angry that I couldn’t speak.

My mouth is wide open and my hands are shaking. It looks like anything could fit in that mouth.

What we ended up getting was an angry dragon?

“You really make me angry.”

“Is it really that bad?”

“Yes!”

“Um, why don’t I sing for you? “It’s a pretty name, so I keep wanting to call it that?”

“That’s right! “Mom also said she was pretty.”

“yes?”

“They said my father, who died before I was born, built it for me.”

“Okay, okay. therefore… .”

“So don’t call me something like you!”

“I understand, ah, that’s right, Lurin!”

“Nenooom! I’m going to tear it up. Tear it!”

“Don’t tear it up and call me El. Then I won’t call you Rurin.”

In front of the angry dragon again, I shrugged my shoulders with a very calm expression and then subtly said my name.

“It’s insignificant.”

Then the reaction came back as expected. I guess I don’t feel like arguing anymore so I just turn away.

“Oh, so you keep calling me?”

From the moment this guy said Lurin out of his mouth, Lulin is Lulin.

It was no longer Black Dragon or this guy, but Lurin.

Lurin, not a dragon.

I don’t want to worry about race. A great being? Dragon? I hated it all.

I just want to treat this guy as a single entity called Lurin, so I call him Lurin.

Thanks to this, even now, despite receiving all kinds of glares, I am still firmly keeping Lurin in my mouth.

“Anyway, since you’re in human form, the fear you emit has almost disappeared, so you can see a lot of animals.”

Right now, Lulin and I were walking down the mountain from Lair.

This is Lulin, who has been curled up in a rare place for hundreds of years.

I wanted to let this guy, who had lived such a dark life and believed that the best thing to do was curl up and sleep, know the feeling of joy.

Even if you can’t go there, it will be enough to change your mood just by walking around with nature in your eyes instead of just being stuck in a room like a junkie.

I wanted to do that.

A change of mood.

After hearing about this guy’s past, I somehow got that feeling.

Of course, it is true that since her mother is dead, the purpose is to solve Rod’s homework by listening to information that only she knows now.

But even without that, I became interested in this lonely guy.

Is that interest sympathy?

I don’t know.

just. It’s like I want to call this guy Lurin even though I hate him so much.

I want to let the guy who thinks dark rares are everything in the world know that this world is very wide.

I don’t want to attach a variety of things to that feeling.

So I took Rurin outside.

Of course, there is no way this dragon would obediently follow the suggestion to go out for a while.

If you say that, what you are looking at is not the outside world, but Lurin’s murderous eyes.

But there are many ways.

Because humans are animals that use their heads. Hehehe.

-Let’s go outside. There is so much fun out there!

-hate. You’ll sleep well.

-Let’s not do that and go out.

-hate! You get out! Don’t come back again.

-Lurin!

-Don’t call me that!

This is Lulin’s usual reaction. Take action here.

What does Lulin want most? That wish is fully contained in the conversation.

Lulin wants me to disappear from Rare. So you should use it.

I’ve already thrown in a bet before.

If I win the bet, I leave. Since he clearly knows that fact, he uses a bet to call him out.

That’s the operation.

Of course, if you lose the bet, you have to leave Rare, so it’s a tightrope walk, but it’s okay.

Isn’t it okay to just not pay attention?

So I approached it this way.

-Then do you want to go out and bet?

-?

-Why are you making that face when you say let’s go out and make a bet? As if I heard something I couldn’t hear?

-I never did that!

-Then let’s go out. Same as before. If you win, I’ll leave. It’s okay to go out because of that, right? There is no particular betting distance within rare.

-Do you have to do it?

-what?

At this moment, Lulin let out a strange sound with a slightly subtle expression.

-no. i get it.

Of course, I immediately changed my words and followed him.

As a result, I am going down the mountain and enjoying nature. And when we go back to the initial situation, animals appeared everywhere going down the mountain.

Because the number of piers had decreased, animals were approaching the mountainside.

In the human condition, peering seems to be naturally restrained, perhaps for entertainment.

To the point where you can’t feel your peer unless you make eye contact.

And I heard that after polymorphing an adult dragon, it can be adjusted to the point where it cannot sense its peer even when making eye contact.

The sky is blue.

The forest is dense.

When I came all the way down the mountain to look for ingredients, I discovered a lake.

So, our destination this time is the lake. The lake below the mountain sparkles in the sun.

Such a peaceful scenery.

I don’t know if she noticed the scenery or not, but Lurin followed me quietly.

When I arrived at the sandy beach in front of the lake, I took out my fishing rod. Summoning magic is very useful.

“So what’s the bet? How far are you going?! Stop going! Sleepy.”

“What are you sleepy about again?”

The patience of the dragon that had been silently following explodes. Why is this guy so sleepy after just waking up?

“Anyway, we’re already here, so stop staring. Doesn’t it hurt your eyes if you stare at me like that?”

Nod.

Okay, I’m sure it won’t hurt. Would your eyes hurt if a dragon glared at someone?

“What are you doing here?”

“Just wait a little while. “It’s a bet, so come and sit next to me.”

I patted the seat next to me and said, and in response to the word “bet,” he trudged over and sat down with his mouth clenched.

I pointed her to the lakeside scenery.

“Now that you’re seated, let’s take a look around.”

Sparkling lake.

flying bird.

It’s so peaceful. The gentle breeze feels good too.

“How is the scenery? “If you enjoy the scenery like this instead of just focusing on rare things, you will feel at ease.”

Lulin’s hair is blowing in the wind.

“If you don’t want to bet, I’ll go back.”

But the dragon didn’t react at all, probably because his emotions had dried up. The sight of him sitting by the lakeside and blinking his eyes is just like a picture.

“Shall we catch some fish first and then make a bet? “Because I’m hungry.”

“What are you eating?”

Fortunately, the only thing that responds positively is eating.

After throwing away the pig’s trotters, he didn’t eat food for a while, but after chasing away the dragons, he stopped ignoring me, so he naturally showed interest in all the dishes I made again, just like before.

“Yes, eating.”

“That’s not bad.”

This time, I nodded in the affirmative. So, I cast a fishing rod at the lakeside to get ingredients.

The bait is an earthworm.

When Lurin heard that she was eating, she quietly focused on this without saying a word.

-Sniff

and put your nose to it.

It always smells delicious when cooking, so I think I sniffed it consciously, but it’s rare that the smell wafts away while I’m still in the process of preparing the ingredients.

He looked disappointed when he soon realized that there was no smell coming from me.

Fortunately, the fishing rod caught a bite right away.

Do you call this half water and half meat?

“Are you going to eat that?”

“what?”

Lulin quickly picked up the fish he caught. And eat it in one gulp.

You probably didn’t feel that fishing with a fishing rod was cooking, did you?

“Ugh!”

The response came immediately. The fish I had taken in one bite was crushed and spat out, as if it had been ground up in the dragon’s grinder.

“Corruption! Corruption! not delicious! “You’re giving me something like this!”

“It’s not? You ate it, right? “Eating raw is your specialty, not mine.”

There is nothing I can do for you if you look at me like I was fooled. This guy already changed the fish.

I had no choice but to swallow anger-quenching candy to seal my twitching lips.

He huffed, chewed the candy, and finally calmed down.

“You know, Lurin.”

“Don’t pour it on me!”

“If you talk while sucking on candy, I won’t understand.”

“It’s sour!”

“Sit peacefully by the lake like this and fish, and you spit out the fish. When you look at it later, it can all become memories. So, why not cherish it a little more?”

“What nonsense is there?”

“no.”

Heo Soi must be nonsense.

It was definitely nonsense.

It’s cringy.

Okay, so I decided to just make a bet.

The plan for today is to close my mouth to win quickly and make a bet, and then enjoy this peace a little more and then eat some grilled fish and go home.

“Now take this fishing rod.”

I handed Lurin the other fishing rod.

“This is the bet.”

“What bet? “Can I hit you with this?”

“There can be no such bet, right?”

“Then are you going to eat this? “I don’t eat things like this.”

Ugh! Even if you look at the fishing rod with disgust.

“Stop talking nonsense and let’s catch a fish with it. “Whoever catches more wins.”

“What is that?”

“What a bet.”

“That tasteless guy from earlier?”

“That’s because I ate it raw. Anyway, if you win, you leave. Instead, if I win, well.”

I had something in mind about that. It will probably be difficult right now to reduce the distance between me and Rurin in my heart.

I believe that if you approach slowly and slowly like this, there will be a day when you will open your heart.

Then, naturally, we will be able to hear about past events related to her mother.

So, if that was not possible right away, I wanted to at least reduce the distance within the rare.

“Come sleep next to me. I don’t mind sleeping curled up, but sleeping on either side of that wide lair is a bit weird, right? There is such a thing as an appropriate distance. Sleep about 5 meters away from me. from now on.”

Still, since men and women are different, they are too close. But the appropriate distance, which is not too far, would be about 5m. It’s almost over 100m now.

“What is that?”

“Well, just for a month.”

“Why do you do everything for a month?”

“I guess that’s an appropriate amount of time, neither too short nor too long, right?”

“I’ll win anyway and you’ll disappear, so it doesn’t matter!”
