How to Live as a Half-Dragon - Chapter 101

It’s been quite a while, but if you think about what happened then, Xian was quite embarrassed at the time.

He would have to do that, too, after being hit with the final blow during the sparring and passing out, and waking up, he had no choice but to say that another self was already in full swing.

‘Actually, the really scary thing is… .’

It was that he was not aware of himself.

To be honest, I was a bit afraid of the body moving independently of my will.

Hughes’ expression was serious as he listened to the story.

“That’s what happened… .”

She said as she watched carefully and waited.

“Hasn’t that happened since then?”

“Never since then… .”

When Xi’an later trained at Semain, it was definitely never like that.

I don’t know if there was even a hint of that, but there were countless times when I fainted, but seeing that Stain didn’t say anything, it was clear.

“None. yes.”

“I mean… .”

Hughes looked at Xian’s face for a moment, then at Cecily.

Cecily, realizing the meaning, let out a sigh.

“sister… ha… .”

Cecily, who had been treated as an intruder again for how long she had been in, left.

Xian called Cecily.

“Cecile… .”

“It’s okay, you’ll tell me when the time is right. right?”

“Yes… .”

“i’ll wait.”

Saying that, Cecily went outside.

When the number of people in the room eventually became two, Hughes’ mouth opened.

“That’s the wildness of Xi’an sleeping in the dragon heart.”

“yes… ?”

As for what that means, Hughes explained:

“It sounds strange to say this, but it’s easier to think of Xian’s other self sleeping in Dragon Heart.”

“Are you asleep?”

“Yes, it’s Xian’s alter ego with dragon blood flowing in it.”

Originally, the Dragonian uses this dragon heart to narrow the gap between the basic ego and its instincts.

Since Xi’an was a special case, he made a separate mana heart and didn’t use dragon hearts at all, and most Dragonians had to survive on their own when they were born, so they put that power under their control.

If you are a Bondi Dragonian, you will have to deal with it someday and become familiar with it.

Hughes said that it was because he had to wake up to protect Cyan’s body.

“that… So what if we leave it like this?”

It is said that a cold-hearted general dragonian often uses dragon hearts, narrowing the gap between the dragon’s ego and the existing ego.

However, Xian was in a position where he could not use the dragon heart right now.

It was because after using it frequently, it became difficult to work among the Slayers when the dragon jade was formed.

“Even if you leave it alone, it won’t be a big problem.”

“yes?”

“I heard you haven’t woken up once since that day?”

“It is, but… .”

The feral nature of dragonians is quite aggressive, Hughes said.

That’s why I said that there is no harm if you put the wild nature under the opposite s*x.

“However, leaving it like this… .”

“Xian, there must be several reasons why Dragon Heart hasn’t woken up since then, but I think the biggest reason is probably the biggest reason is the influence of the dragonskill that Xian learned.”

“A dragon?”

“Yes, of course. Dragon Slayer is never a good energy for Dragon Heart. The more Xian becomes accustomed to dragon slaying, the more it is never a good environment for dragon hearts to run rampant.”

I’m sure there’s a point when I hear it.

said Hughes.

“Xian’s Dragon Heart is likely to have shrunk quite a bit by now. If you wake it up once to find a way out, the same thing may happen more often after that.”

Well, seven years ago, it was still at the point where Xian couldn’t handle the dragon kill so freely.

It was also about three months after learning how to kill a dragon.

Xian, of course, became quite proficient at handling the dragon slash.

‘No, the word proficiency is ridiculous.’

Such a situation even lasted for a long time.

As Hughes said, exposed to this situation, Dragon Heart’s ferocity may have gone into a long sleep.

But waking up a sleeping guy was never a good choice in the current situation.

“all right. But something makes me anxious.”

I don’t know if I didn’t know the cause, but when I found out that it was Dragon Heart’s wildness…

Even when I was a kid, I was to the point of overwhelming Stein, but I was afraid of what would happen if I woke up now.

There’s no guarantee that a belligerent guy won’t attack the people around him.

“Anyway, this means we’ll control it later, right?”

“Yes, for now, that’s for the best. Sorry for not being of much help right away. draft.”

“Oh, no Hughes, why are you sorry?”

Hughes put on a slightly displeased expression.

“why?”

“I heard you say Hughes sister?”

ah… It was true.

‘But I don’t know if I can get used to this.’

can’t we just not do it?

After that, Xian went to the mansion after talking with Hughes about the tournament that was to be held two days later.

He asked if it would be okay since he would do such a thing during the tournament, and he would go to Ferreira instead of Alteon.

Hughes thought it over and said it didn’t matter.

‘However, when I can come out safely?’

Hughes had pointed out a worrying point in saying that.

He was worried that Alteon would send Xian, who had absorbed Alteon’s technology through Stein, to Ferreira intact.

‘And that’s right.’

For now, they share the same blood, and if they didn’t know about it, they wouldn’t take their lives, but they were concerned that if Stein did tell them, things would get quite embarrassing.

The family’s vision was so precious that they had to assume the worst.

‘If this is the case, then stain becomes important… ?’

Stein felt like a brother next door who had been with him for 7 years, but the important thing was that he was a vassal of Alteon.

There was no guarantee that he would not change his mind.

“I haven’t seen you for days… .”

When a problem he was not aware of came to mind, Xian decided to secretly discuss this with Drake.

It was when Xian arrived at the front gate of the mansion.

“A carriage I haven’t seen before?”

Xian checked the pattern engraved on the wagon and thought of something.

Xian’s head turned to check the straight road leading to Alteon’s main house.

The insignia of the vassal families with Alteon were hung on the road, and the pattern of the carriage was one of the many patterns hung there.

‘I think it was even the closest to the main house… .’

Among the roads leading to Alteon, the closest insignia to the main house was, of course, the most closely related vassal family to Alteon.

He was there because he faithfully assisted Alteon more than anyone else and led the light of Alteon together during a long history.

Cecily said as Xian went through the open mansion door and watched the carriage pull away.

“draft.”

“huh?”

“Isn’t it?”

“Ah, that’s right.”

Xian moved and passed the front door.

Now, the guards, imprinting Xian’s existence, were frozen stiffly waiting for it to pass, but they were not as vigilant as before.

Arriving at the inn, Xian took off her outerwear and headed straight for Drake.

His expression became serious when we talked about Stain earlier.

It was because it was definitely a valid concern.

“What?”

“It’s probably better to listen to what he thinks… .”

I don’t know if Stein says he’ll keep his secret, but if not, I’ll have to think about the worst case scenario.

“If that is not possible, or if the answer is unwilling to speak… .”

Drake looked at Xian’s sword.

Xian was in awe.

“It’s nonsense. Do you do that?”

“Why are you more surprised, if someone sees me… .”

I thought he was a dragonian. Drake, who was about to say that, looked at Cecily in the seat next to him.

Drake looked at Xian and asked…

“Are you there yet?”

Xian, who had guessed what Drake said behind his back, affirmed.

“yes… .”

“Tsk… It’s frustrating, anyway, but what else do you mean?”

No, how can I suggest an opinion to a dragonian to kill the same slayer with the use of force…

I don’t know if I know Drake’s mental head.

“You didn’t know that, so you’re asking, because you’re that Ferreira.”

Yes Drake is Pereira.

A prestigious family comparable to Alteon.

It’s only natural to expect how well you can’t coax them, not brute strength.

However, Drake was adamant.

“impossible.”

“that… song?”

“Isn’t it obvious, or is it not that I am asking you to break the thousand-year peace with Alteon and go to war just because of you?”

If a war between the great aristocrats in charge of a huge axis of each country occurred, there was a high probability that it would naturally develop into an all-out national war.

“Or leave it to chance that Alteon will send it to you.”

“The odds… ?”

Said Xian, who would rather rely on luck than kill Stain with her own hands and shut her mouth.

“How do I know that?”

“But you can think about it roughly.”

Simply put the current situation in Ferreira, it is simple.

Of course, as people’s inclinations and things like that are all different, what kind of results will be different, but…

“About 50.”

Drake’s voice, thinking about Xian’s words, said a fairly ambiguous probability.

‘It’s really ambiguous… .’

It was a fairly low probability to gamble with the life of an unmanned person.

“What punishment can be expected… I’m guessing it’s roughly the extent of smashing mana hearts… .”

In a word, it meant making it half crippled.

Xian’s thoughts deepened.

I really don’t know what to do.

“I’m going crazy, really.”

“I’m going crazy too, why are you living so complicatedly?”

It was Drake who spoke as if he were an alumni.

Xian was dumbfounded by such a Drake.

Wasn’t he the one who made the threatening request to live as a good dragonian?

It’s absurd to come out like this now.

“Eh… .”

It was when Xian’s troubles reached their peak.

A knock was heard.

When I checked Drake, he said he didn’t know.

Judging from the feelings I feel, it seems like it’s just a fight…

“Come in.”

After Xian said that, a lady-in-waiting opened the door and entered.

“What happened?”

“There is someone who is looking for you, Bocchan.”

“Me? Not Lord Pereira?”

“yes.”

Sian looked at Drake and he winked at him as if to go.

After bowing his head in greeting, Xian stepped out the door.

“Who are you?”

“This is Count Craston.”

There was a pattern that came to mind in Xian’s head.

It was because the carriage he had encountered at the front gate before entering the mansion belonged to Craston.
