How to Live as a Half-Dragon

Chapter 87

087. Crypt Rare (2)

Callard was, to put it mildly, a man whose face was not worth it.

It was because he was the owner of such an appearance that aroused awe, as if he had put together statues that spanned the ages, but his way of speaking and actions could not keep up with it.

But that didn’t mean he was frivolous.

Still, he was the savior who rallied the dragons that had disappeared one by one and led the dragonians who were hurt and driven out by the current Crypt Lair.

Such a miracle would have been impossible if he, who was the light to some and the object of reverence, who was salt to others, was simply a person with a frivolous tone and behavior.

Callard said, putting his hips on the floor instead of the lofty throne in the corner of the room.

“Okay, how is our son?”

Hughes has been watching Xian for about 10 years.

Few people knew Xian as well as she did.

She knelt at Calad and said.

“If it’s the young master… .”

“Not that.”

“… What if?”

“How was it like a husband?”

Ten years ago, Hughes was already the spouse of Xian, whom Calard had picked out.

Although it was just a random match for a child who had just seen the light of day.

The necklace he shared was also something he made and handed over.

“Is it difficult to answer?”

“It is not… .”

Hughes doesn’t hate Xian either.

He was kind-hearted, had a sense of responsibility, and had a charm that fascinated others, perhaps resembling Calad.

If you look at the smirk part again, it’s cute and fun.

However, it was still closer to the feeling of being a younger brother to take care of, and it wasn’t that emotions as a member of the opposite s*x surged violently.

“… I’m not sure yet.”

“okay? If he looked like me, he would have been pretty handsome, but that’s strange.”

“excuse me… Bocchan, you are only 10 years old now.”

Sometimes there are moments that make me happy by showing my trustworthy appearance, but that’s a 10-year-old child.

I don’t know if it will be different in just a few years…

Also, as much as the story that he looked like Calad came out, Hughes talked about what he usually thought.

“And if it’s a resemblance, the appearance is also the same, but I felt that the inside was more similar.”

“okay? Is it natural that you are my child?”

Xian is also Calad’s child after all.

How could it not be like

It really is.

When I see the weak, I get impatient because I can’t help them.

When I see someone who doesn’t have it, I get impatient because I can’t relieve it.

However, Calad continued to say that he was both happy and worried at the same time.

“It resembles something useless in a rough world… .”

I know what his worries are.

An altruistic personality can make others happy, but if it is excessive, it will make it difficult for oneself.

Hughes slipped away.

“that… But, for some reason, the call… .”

“No, see my daughter-in-law’s face and hear some news about our son.”

Fortunately, it didn’t seem like a big deal.

Calad said with a smile.

“So, is there anything else?”

“yes?”

“Anything other than personality or looks.”

Calad also seemed to care about Xian as a father.

Hagija is his bloodline.

Hughes even knows that Calad cares about Xian.

However, the reason why he couldn’t go there was because of his altruistic personality, so it’s safe to say that he was worried about Xian.

But Hughes doesn’t hate this kind of collard.

Because you are also one of those saved by him.

I’m sorry, I’m sorry, but I could never hate him as much as I knew Crypt Lair existed because of him.

Hughes got lucky when he saw Callad, who had a smile that looked just like his son.

“He has a lot of talent. Whatever they see, they imitate them.”

“Hoo… also?”

“There are times when you seem young like a child, but you become more mature.”

“That’s a wonderful thing… .”

Hughes, who had been talking about Xian, who he had been watching one by one, said if he remembered his complaint.

“And I have so many girlfriends.”

Melody’s story, Cecily’s story, and Leah’s story were told.

“That young guy already has the temperament of a playboy… Who do you resemble… ?”

“Isn’t it Mr. Calad?”

“me?”

Callard lived only by working, but he reacted as if he was unfair, but Hughes knows about his past.

Before Sarah, he had married a woman who was a dragon of the same race.

“Artius-sama… .”

“It’s been a thousand years since I ended up with him… Why don’t you tell Sarah?”

“Sarah-sama doesn’t know… ?”

“Even if you know it, there is no need to say it. Daughter-in-law, ask for peace in the family.”

Calad, who had been arguing that such a thing should never happen, calmed down and straightened up.

Returning to the point, he said.

“But didn’t you tell me that you were married? You said you gave me the necklace?”

Even after telling the truth, if this kid was possessed by that kid, that would be a problem.

Fortunately, though, Hughes opened his mouth as if it wasn’t like Calad’s idea.

“I didn’t speak.”

“yes?”

Callard, who had grown accustomed to seeing his prospective daughter-in-law, said.

“Why? If you’re unhappy, you should have said it yourself.”

“… It might be burdensome.”

How can I tell a boy who is only 10 years old that I’m the fiancé that my father decided for me and that you should keep your distance from other girls?

Hughes even thought that at least that would be when Xian could make his own judgment.

Calad’s intentions are important, but the most important thing is the feelings between the parties.

“Hmm… Well, if it’s the daughter-in-law, then there’s nothing special… .”

“… … .”

Fortunately, Calad seemed to respect Hughes’ thoughts.

Or it could have been that he was careful not to become coercive if he insisted on working more than this.

“Oh, and speaking of Sarah.”

“yes.”

“… How is Sarah?”

A son is also a son, but what Calad loved the most was Sarah.

There was no way she wouldn’t be bothered by the girl she left behind in a remote village.

“If you’re interested, I think you’d better go and see for yourself.”

“hmm… .”

“Before, there was a young master, but now he is alone. You will be hostile.”

Hughes has watched Sara as much as Cyan.

She was a beautiful and wise woman, but she was also a person and a woman.

There was no way I wouldn’t be lonely waiting.

“If the Crypt bothers you, I’ll stay here for a while.”

It’s not as great as Calad, but it’s possible to protect this place while he comes back.

“No, our work is our work, and my daughter-in-law should go to my husband as a daughter-in-law.”

Calad seemed to be very concerned about the Crypt.

Well, given his personality, it might have been unavoidable.

Even Crypt Lair had grown in size as it had been settled and maintained for a thousand years.

Simply managing was also managing, but since the recent movements of the Dragon Slaughter Church were unusual, it was an act accompanied by a fairly large risk for him to leave Rare at this moment, not at any other time.

“no.”

“hmm?”

“So I think we should go now, Mr. Calad.”

“Even though something irreversible might happen in the meantime if I go?”

said Hughes.

“Once the work really starts, then you may not have time.”

“hmm… .”

“How much more, man’s time is short.”

He too would know.

Compared to dragons, who live lightly for thousands of years, humans have a very short lifespan.

“Maybe I was too selfish.”

I don’t know if he only thought of himself as a dragon.

As Hughes said, if I missed this time, I didn’t know when the opportunity would come.

It could be 10 years later, it could be 100 years later.

It would be meaningless to visit Sarah after she had already died.

Calad rose from his seat.

“Thank you, daughter-in-law. Thanks to you, I made up my mind.”

Callad said as he headed to the balcony.

“Can I act selfishly this time?”

“Yes, everyone lives selfishly, right? Calad-nim is special.”

Calad spread his wings as a huge red dragon.

He is heading to find his spouse after 10 years.

When Calad left, Hughes stood up and turned around.

“I will be busy for a while… .”

Now it was time for him to share his burden until he returned.

Time is equal for everyone.

It does not discriminate between men and women.

To the sick old and to the new life just born.

1 minute 1 second always flows the same.

It’s an obvious story, but at the same time, it’s such a truth that it’s easy to forget because it’s so obvious.

The oblivion that time brings comes back as a thrilling impression between a couple who met after 10 years.

It also sometimes brings growth to young dragons who are endlessly advancing towards their goals.

– Unstoppable! Unstoppable!! Even the crazy rising price!!!

“I f*cking believed you! draft!!”

-The boy who debuted in the arena two years ago finally wins 9!

ha… ha…

Xian let out a rough breath when he saw the 9-win sacrifice at his feet.

“after… .”

After two years, Xian, who had grown even more, turned around and left the arena.

Finally 9 wins.

It was a long time, but there was finally one step left before the fruits of our efforts.

‘yet… I have room.’

In the season two years before the debut, there were too few games, and it was Xian, who unfortunately finished with 6 wins in the previous season.

However, this year’s Xian, which grew day by day, was different.

It has only been halfway through the season, but it has already won 9 games.

I’ve only lost 3 times.

Of course, Daejin luck was good, but one win from now on.

And Xian vowed to make the next match the last match in the arena.

“You worked hard.”

Stain, who had been waiting for him, said as he left the arena.

Even if he said it without inspiration, Xian remembers that this guy was the one who raised the most heat in the front of the cheering seat earlier.

“let’s go.”

“yes.”

The next Dalian is at least a fortnight away because of the 15th reorganization day.

Although it is a day without sparring, it is not a day to play, so it was time to think about going to the inn and resting for today, even for tomorrow’s training.

“It’s snow.”

“I know… ?”

Xian suddenly raised his head at the snow falling from the sky.

It was strange because the sky was a bit hazy unlike usual.

Xi’an is already the third winter season in Semain.

But it never snowed.

So, I have to wonder…

lively.

It was just as Xian was about to say a word or two saying that he had a big deal and start walking towards the dorm.

A blue butterfly he had seen before flew in front of Xian’s eyes and landed on the opposite wall.

“Hughes… ?”

It was an unforgettable existence.

Even though it’s been a long time since I’ve seen your face, I was the first person to let Xi’an know the world.

“Me, just for a moment.”

“Did you remember something you missed?”

Xian said to Stain, who was trying to follow while nagging him that he was inattentive.

“Don’t follow me.”

“yes? It doesn’t sound like anything… .”

“I’ll be back soon. Or wait here.”

Stain was very flustered since it was his first time, but he nodded.

“I know what. wait.”

When Stein said that, Xian ran after the butterfly that had just started.

After about 10 minutes of running at full speed, Xian stopped at the empty lot where he always trained on holidays.

It was such a place where it wouldn’t be strange at all to sweat so much that the grains of sand were soaked in sweat.

“Hughes.”

Hughes, who had been standing still at Xian’s call, turned around and smiled brightly.

“Welcome. draft.”

“When did you come?”

“Just now.”

Hughes, whom I haven’t seen in a while, was even cooler.

From nob le mt l dot com

Mature and elegant.

Compared to the time when I didn’t know how to do it, now I looked at the world with the eyes that I’ve experienced a little more.

“How is your training going?”

“Yes, oh that… It’s a bit harsh to say this, but he’ll come back in 15 days. If we win one more time, it’s 10 wins, so we’ll go back to Alteon together… .”

Hughes firmly cut Xian off.

“draft.”

“yes?”

“It’s probably better not to say that.”

“why?”

“If you just say that, things will always go wrong.”

Xian was excited and thought about what to say then opened his mouth.

“Oh, wasn’t that tall?”

It’s been 3 years since I broke up with Hughes.

It seems to be 20 cm taller than that time.

Hughes was tall for a woman, but it was clear seeing that Xian was a little taller now.

“Ah, that’s right.”
