How to Live as a Half-Dragon

023. mana heart.

Drake, who ran after hearing the urgent news, couldn’t help but frown as soon as he arrived in the secret room.

It was because the condition of the grandson who had been poisoned by the Dragonian was serious.

Even though he helped the luck once before going out to supply ingredients to the people living in this rare, he had another seizure.

“Damn it. It’s started again… .”

When the seizure starts, it’s like now.

Green spots appear all over the body, and the poison energy spreads throughout the body in an instant.

Luckily, it wasn’t too late.

Raising his grandson who was fighting poison alone, Drake went into first aid.

“Grandpa… .”

“Don’t talk, focus for now.”

Originally, even his grandson is a strong guy for his age, so he doesn’t suffer from most poisons.

However, the poison from the Dragonian two days ago was not an ordinary one.

Not only did the antidote she always had on hand not work, and for some reason, even if she injected mana like now to drive the poison out of her body, after a few hours, it was reacting more strongly like now.

‘is not it… .’

I remembered what the red-haired kid had said before coming here.

Isn’t that insincere… .

Well, if he had been strong in the first place, he wouldn’t have made the mistake of being poisoned.

The mana injected by Drake, who laughed bitterly, was directed here and there, driving the body’s poison energy out.

A simple way to cycle sequentially through the mana circuits of the whole body, starting with the mana heart, and then return to the starting point.

However, the effect was perfect.

After repeating it once or twice, the condition of the grandson gradually disappeared.

“I guess this is enough.”

“thank you… .”

For the time being, Drake woke up only when the situation was seemingly no different from usual.

But Drake knew.

That it would happen again in a few hours.

‘Should I give up… ?’

Of course, I didn’t mean to give up my grandson.

When Drake gave up, he meant something else.

In fact, Drake’s behavior now is contradictory.

If you’re poisoned, it’s wise to show your condition to a high-ranking priest and take action as soon as possible, rather than staying in this Dragonian’s rare.

He himself had been through all of the prenatal care, but he was a stranger to treatment and recovery.

However, Drake was still here.

It was because he discovered the place two days ago and at the same time found the people kidnapped by the Dragonians.

If they had not seen them, they would not have known, but since they had seen them, they could not turn away from them coldly.

‘If I leave, they will become food for the Dragonians… .’

Dragonian food.

Knowing the situation, Drake initially stayed here.

Anyway, since the situation was reported to the head family, new Slayers will arrive sooner or later.

After that, I decided to get out of here and detoxify.

However, the problem is that the condition of the grandson is rapidly deteriorating unexpectedly.

If you continue to endure, you can endure it for a few more days, but that is a story of how much you can save your life, and the aftereffects are a separate story, so if you don’t want to leave irreversible scars, it was wise to leave this place at this point.

No matter how much you are a Slayer who is united with a sense of mission, bloodlines are precious.

I had no intention of making him shoulder a heavy burden, even if it meant tarnishing his honor.

“after… .”

It was when Drake let out a deep sigh in deep distress.

“100 million!”

A shriek was heard from the narrow passage leading to the secret room.

Look at the mana and signs.

“Is that the guy we broke up with earlier…? ? I know him, so you don’t have to worry about it.”

Talking to the interested grandson, Drake quickly moved on.

I was thinking of going and checking what was going on.

Arriving at the aisle, Drake was greatly surprised to see Xian clutching his chest and breaking out in a cold sweat like rain.

“You guys can’t… .”

There are years that have been lived.

As soon as he saw Chuck, Drake saw through Xian’s condition.

‘The mana has lost its way and is flowing backwards.’

It’s easy for things like this to happen.

This is what happens when you make a mistake in the direct process that helps expand your original mana heart.

“Because you’re such an idiot… .”

Drake clicked his tongue and put his hand on Xian’s back.

No cause, solution is simple.

If you guide the mana that was trying to flow back into the mana heart, the condition will improve.

“however… . What is this?”

Drake, who was examining Xian’s body, had no choice but to wrinkle his face.

It was because he had a very big problem.

“Why is there a backwater here?”

The reverse flow of mana occurred near the heart where the mana heart exists.

I don’t even know if I don’t have mana hearts… .

If you look at the aura, it’s not like there is no mana heart.

where it should be.

No, rather, there was a mana heart that was so big and wide that I wondered if it was easy enough for this little boy.

“So embarrassing… .”

This is the first time in my life that I am confused.

“If there is a way, is that it?”

Sometimes there are guys like that.

Right-handers are common, but there are left-handers as well.

Mana hearts are also formed on the right side, not on the left side.

And as there were such guys, there was definitely a direct route for those who had a mana heart on the right side.

“It must be a pain in the ass.”

Create another mana heart on the right and transfer mana there.

With that, it was clear that his regurgitation would stop.

Drake led the regurgitated mana and began to cruise toward the station.

“Turn it off… .”

“Even if it hurts, endure it, you ugly bastard.”

Suppressing the screaming cyan and barely carrying mana to his right chest, Drake injected mana.

Creates a mana heart.

Originally, it is common for a teacher who imparts teachings to do this, but I decided to write a big favor, saying that it is a relationship even if only the hem of the clothes is brushed.

“But right now, a handful of mana is a waste… .”

I was thinking of making it only at the level of first aid.

After all, mine would be better than dying.

however… .

“Oh… .”

Drake, who was making mana hearts with the injected mana, couldn’t hide his embarrassment.

It was because his mana was suddenly being sucked like crazy.

* * *

Sian was relieved when Drake first approached him.

Her heart tightened and she soon felt the pain of peeling the skin around her, but even in that situation, she could sense that he wanted to help her.

And above all…

‘It’s warm.’

The old man’s mana that seeped into his chest was warm.

I wondered if it would be like this if there was a father’s love.

Shut up?!

But that was an illusion.

Are you trying to kill me?

For some reason, the old man’s warmth soon came as a sharp pain.

In particular, when moving mana around the heart to various parts of the body, he had to suffer from pain as if the blood vessels of the whole body were being hacked to pieces.

“Listen carefully, I will form mana hearts from now on. Unfortunately, there is no room for mana. If you’ve done it once, I think you understand what I mean.”

Have you tried it once?

I don’t know what you mean, but Xian didn’t have time to think more deeply in the midst of the pain.

It was already a miracle just to hear and understand.

‘I don’t know… .’

Xian began to form the image of Mana Heart.

You can copy the shape and size of the dragon heart on the left… .

“Huup… .”

For some reason, I started making mana hearts based on dragon hearts, and I heard the old man’s pain, but I didn’t care.

It was because he instinctively knew that it was something he could not quit now.

“… … .”

“Turn it off… .”

Xian literally sucked mana non-stop.

The barren land longed for the rain that had been falling for the first time in a long time.

“after… .”

As the pain gradually subsided and her body felt better, Xian opened her closed eyes.

First of all, it was because he had to thank the old man who helped him.

‘I thought he was a bad person, but he was a good person.’

It was also when Xian opened his eyes, saying that people are not judged by appearance alone.

“Thank you… .”

bean.

“this… . Who is this guy trying to kill… .”

“ah… . why are you hitting… .”

“Why are you hitting me? You mean you don’t know what you did… !”

It seemed that he had done something, but Xian was feeling unfair.

because nothing was done

Xian asked while receiving Drake’s stinging gaze.

Acknowledge that you caused trouble and acknowledge that you received help.

However, it was because he did not understand when he did something that would make the old man in front of him angry.

“Did I do something to Grandpa?”

“what… what? this… . Have you seen a guy with a thicker face than an ogre!”

“No, I really don’t know, so… !”

The old man’s fist, which was about to let go of the chestnuts again, stopped.

Xian hurriedly said

“Please explain. That way, I’ll be scolded and feel less unfair… .”

Drake, dumbfounded by Xian’s words, opened his mouth after a while.

“You really don’t know?”

“yes.”

“Even though you’ve already formed a mana heart?”

Come to think of it, I think I’ve heard that before.

Xian, who was about to question the old man when he had ever formed a mana heart, hesitated.

‘uh… ? no way?’

The mana heart the old man said…

‘Isn’t that a dragon heart?’
