How to Live as a Half-Dragon - Chapter 99



099. Contract extension

Heading towards the place where Lacilla’s lab was located, Xian’s pace was a little faster than when he came to the library a moment ago.

Maybe it’s because I instinctively sensed a subtle ominous feeling.

And by the time the laboratory could be seen in the distance, Xian’s pace had already slowed down.

‘doesn’t exist… .’

The reason was that her popularity was not caught at all.

In general, it is difficult to read the higher level of unmanned people because their presence is naturally blurred, but Xian knows Raycilla well.

It was said that she was Raycilla who learned magic because she had no talent for mutu.

In fact, when she was young, she was immature in handling her body enough to read all her movements even to Xian.

“Why?”

I was confused because I had never imagined that it would not exist in the great library or the laboratory.

Xian arrived in front of the lab before he knew it and carefully opened the door.

profit.

It was different from when I came in the other day.

It reminded me of her boasting that it can only be opened by entering a mana pattern.

Even in Alteon, it is said that it has the highest level of security.

However, that mana pattern has been released.

It meant that she, who had said that she would inform only her disciple herself, was no longer here.

After entering the lab, Xian took a quick look inside.

‘Isn’t there anything really important?’

Only the research bench and various magical devices that she would have used are in place.

All of her treasured magic books and research materials were gone.

It was empty here as well.

I didn’t know what she would like, so I’ve been looking for magic-related gifts, but it seemed to be useless.

“… … .”

Sitting on the research bench and enjoying the bittersweet mood, Xian checked the magic doll in the distance and used a fireball.

The fireball exploded nicely, but she was no longer fussing around like before.

It was when Xian got up from his seat.

“So, the youngest boy has come?”

“Yeah, don’t talk. I saw it from afar and how precious it looked… .”

A chattering noise was heard in the hallway, and soon there were two maids entering Raycilla’s laboratory.

The two people holding the cleaning tools were all surprised to see Xian.

“do… young master.”

“Why are you here… ?”

The two people who hurriedly lowered their heads and didn’t know what to do seemed to have come to clean the place.

Well, it was strange that not a speck of dust had accumulated since it had been emptied.

“Where is Aunt Lacilla? Are you safe?”

It was a real if-if assumption.

Such an unlucky family that died as a victim of a power struggle…

However, Xian, of course, was aware that the possibility of this family was quite low.

The fact that Raycilla is strong is also strong, but the basis was that the laboratory was still maintained in Alteon, which was unable to handle magic at all except for her.

‘It’s a natural inference to manage because there’s someone to come back to.’

As we waited for an answer from the two of them about what the reality would be like, one of them, who was looking at each other, opened his mouth.

“… If you are Princess Lacilla, you left for Kadan a few years ago.”

“after… .”

Still, I was preparing my heart, but I was fortunate.

Sian, relieved to hear that he was safe, opened his mouth.

I’ll have to give you a gift next time…

“Are you Kadan? Why are you there?”

“that… .”

Seeing her unable to open her mouth, Xian urged her, wondering if it was something bad.

“why?”

“I couldn’t hear the details… .”

“ah… .”

Come to think of it, it was usually the way the superiors dealt with things.

It is very rare to have someone who takes care of the work by explaining why he has to do this to his subordinates.

Wasn’t it like that when Drake was training himself right now?

“Once I got it. Are you here to clean?”

“Ah, yes!”

Xian moved away as if to take care of his business, and after a while, as he walked away from the lab, he heard the chattering of the ladies-in-waiting.

“Right? Right? Aren’t you very respectful?”

“Yep.”

I can hear everything, but it would be nice if it was delayed a bit…

The process of being born and growing up is the bottom itself, but it is because it is a little far from the word honor.

Come to think of it, when I show my face at three main events and eat, the reaction is always like that, so the hooded cape was a must-have item, but I wondered if it should be the same here.

Xian came to a place where he could no longer hear the chattering of the ladies-in-waiting and sighed.

“after… Anyway, you mean Kadan?”

If he wanted to become a Slayer himself, he had to go to Kadan someday.

That’s why it was regrettable that he couldn’t meet Lacilla, but he wasn’t sad.

Because I can see you soon anyway.

* * *

Xian later returned to the dorm and put down the present.

Originally, I was going to go out, but I heard it with the intention of putting down things to put down and preparing things to prepare again.

Especially when she wore the hooded cape she always wore when going out, Cecily, who was waiting in the dorm, said,

“Where are you going?”

She didn’t specifically suggest that we go together or pay attention, but when Xian stepped forward, Cecily naturally followed.

Of course, Stein was not there today.

‘Is this the end of the child’s business?’

The more I think about it, the more I get frustrated.

How long have we been together…

Xian answered Cecily’s question.

“We didn’t talk about anything else yesterday to meet Hughes, did we?”

“I did a lot.”

The two spent time apart as Sian tipped a glass with Yorba.

I was still relieved to see the two of them, like real sisters.

“What did you talk about?”

“It’s about Xi’an.”

my story?

I’m a bit curious, but would you mind telling me if I ask?

“Have you ever seen me?”

“It’s not like that.”

“Then what is it?”

I asked if he could tell me if it wasn’t insulting, but Cecily was stubborn.

“secret.”

It was a promise with Hughes, Cecily said, naturally.

“But Hughes hasn’t changed at all. Xian and I are not.”

Xian flinched.

It was natural since she was a Dragonian, but Cecily didn’t know yet.

‘If we meet today, we must talk about this’

I really feel uncomfortable when this kind of story comes out.

Sian quietly turned around.

“But are you worried?”

“what?”

“Yorba, I’m sure you’re going to argue.”

Yesterday, he had told Cecily that he had once again entrusted the management of Mirva Firm.

It was in fact half-forced, so it was clear that he would definitely express his dissatisfaction if he met him.

“hmm… Is that so?”

However, Cecily’s reaction to Xian’s thoughts was a little ambiguous.

The story itself was sympathetic, but the atmosphere was that the important part could not be agreed.

“Are you saying it won’t happen?”

“No, I’m going to talk about my dissatisfaction, but… .”

“I will?”

“I think Xian will help if you convince him well. Even if it wasn’t for alcohol.”

What is this again…

But hearing Cecily say this made me feel at ease.

Thanks to that, Xian, who was relieved of his worries and arrived at the Mirva store with light steps, was immediately taken away by Yorba.

‘No, he said it would be fine… .’

* * *

Yorba got over a hangover and headed out to lunch.

As I handed over everything yesterday, I thought I would never come again, but it only took half a day.

‘There is that lady here… .’

Hughes, who was said to be the owner of the general store.

Since she was here, he was sure that Xian, who seemed to be an acquaintance, would definitely stop by here.

And that thought was not wrong.

It wasn’t long before I saw him entering the store building.

Yorba dragged the overly handsome red-haired man into the room where they had been drinking yesterday.

“Hey, client man.”

When I said it in a fairly sharp voice, Xian laughed awkwardly, as if there was something stabbed.

“What are you thinking?”

He first threw the small bag with the contents on the desk.

When asked to explain in detail, he looked up and opened his mouth slightly.

“Would you like a drink first?”

“I’m done drinking, because someone made me promise to never drink again.”

Of course, I don’t know if I can protect it, but Xian was already a person of interest to Yorba.

“That, I’m sorry.”

Xian smiled.

Yorba didn’t hate that smiling face.

It was Xi’an who saved Yorba, who had once fallen into the abyss.

There was no way I could hate it.

“Are you not going to tell me?”

Sian sighed and said.

“It’s obvious why you gave me the pouch.”

“Are you serious? Are you really going to return this?”

I don’t know what Xian thinks, but Yorba can say it.

Mirva’s business is much bigger than Xian thought.

Until he gave it back yesterday, he too had a great desire.

In fact, even if he gulp, no one would say anything.

However, Xian accepted the large amount of money and gave it back without hesitation.

Just like the day when he gave out a large sum of 400 gold.

I wanted to know the true intention of this action.

‘And if it’s pure sympathy and favor… .’

Yorba was going to refuse coldly.

Sympathy is enough once.

Now he is different from then.

“Please take good care of Mirva Company in the future.”

Yorba thought about it before opening his mouth.

This part was because it seemed that he, who was a senior in his life, had to point it out.

“What if I eat and splash?”

There is nothing wrong with the paperwork though.

In fact, no one would believe him even if Xian said that he was the pants boss.

And Yorba explained not only that, but also the value of Mirba Corporation in detail.

It’s absolutely necessary, and it’s clear that it’s because they don’t know the value of Sanghoe yet.

Being the scion of a rich aristocrat, he said he was ignorant.

However, the answer to his own words that he explained for a while…

“Didn’t he look like that?”

It was something like this.

He even gave me an admonition.

From nob le mt l dot com

My mother said that the most common mistake people make is to neglect small things and do well when the big things come later.

“People who can’t do little things usually don’t do big things later.”

What this meant was that if he had really been the one to eat and bounce, he would have left with 400 gold that day, and he would not have been here.

To some extent, I was speechless because it seemed to be true.

In fact, it is also true that he cannot become a person who can eat and wash his mouth.

Xian pushed the bag again and said.

“Then give it back.”

“Why?”

At Yorba’s words, Xian expressed his thoughts honestly.

“Actually, I can’t afford to stay here and lead the company.”

He also mentioned that he lacked the talent to run a business.

However, in the case of the former, Yorba was no different.

“That goes for me too.”

“No matter how much you do, you will be better than me, and if the administration is difficult, I will find someone to ask for advice.”

When I couldn’t seem to break my stubbornness, I decided to listen to the reason.

My mouth hurts just from wrestling.

I decided to check only the first thing I was going to check.

said Yorba.

“Are you doing this out of pity?”
