How To Tame an Academy Dragon
Chapter 16
16. As for me
A major repair and repair work has begun on the stationery.
The first floor was where the taste was gone, but the pillars and beams were also bent or shaken, so the second floor wasn’t very safe either.
As the whole house was under construction, I didn’t have a good place to sleep, so I decided to stay at an inn until the construction was finished.
I visited Sellus Company to discuss business, and Sellus heard about my situation and gave me a room at an inn belonging to his company for free.
I was told by the contractor that the construction would take about two weeks, and Sellus took care of me and told me to rest comfortably as much as I wanted.
To the bone, he was not reluctant to get free food from Sellus, a merchant, so he ended up paying for the meal and using it.
At the inn, I passed the time by thinking about simple business items or reading books.
After 2 days of doing that, it was boring and not fun, so I got rid of it…
Once again, I realized how much I had put my heart into stationery. As soon as the stationery operation was left out of the daily cycle, I became an unemployed person with nothing to do.
The only people I knew were the elders of my grandfather’s generation, Sellus, and one crazy dragon, so I had nowhere to go to play.

Nightlight Inn, an inn affiliated with Sellus Corporation, is always crowded with her guests.
At dinner time, it was crowded with customers who came to drink even if they were not staying overnight, and naturally, my hobby became eavesdropping on the world.
When you sit at a bar table and sip a drink, you can hear the voices of drunken men.
“Hey. I heard that gangsters were arrested yesterday as well.”
“Kevin was also taken away.”
“He was caught too?”
I don’t know who Kevin is, but he’s a guy who used to break his fists.
Of course, it wasn’t important that Kevin, a gangster, was arrested.
As the empire grew rapidly, underground organizations such as gangsters and gangsters began to grow in invisible places.
Until now, he hadn’t committed any major accidents or conspicuous crimes, so he didn’t touch it much…
Recently, it is said that criminals are being arrested en masse as if sweeping with a broom.
It was said that the neighborhood was noisy at night with the footsteps of imperial soldiers chasing fugitives.
“It would be fortunate if they were caught. There are many cases of disappearances.”
“I heard the baker’s daughter disappeared the other day…Lina? Lena?”
“Lina. Is that the only place that’s gone? Other than that…”
Their voices became less and less like whispers, and I could no longer hear them.
“Are you okay?”
I thought of the Doha Prius as I imagined what would happen if the back alley ecosystem collapsed.
A dragon that hides its true identity and acts as a solver in the back alley.
I don’t think there’s a way to get caught with her skills. Her concern was that if all the criminals were caught, her work would be reduced. It was such a useless nonsense.
“Let’s see. Did I say something?”
One more thought. She can’t remember if I told her I was renovating her shop.
I remember that I was going to do the construction, but I feel like I’ve never been told since when.
I took all my stuff to the warehouse for construction work.
Today is the 4th day since the construction started. If it’s normal, it’s been 4 days since the Doha Prius didn’t buy bread.
It was funny that I was worried about the dragon’s snacks, but I couldn’t help but worry about it.
As I thought about it, I decided to go to the stationery store to see how the construction was going.
“Yonggary gets scared when he gets angry. Here’s the calculation.”
After putting the money I drank on the table, I called the bartender and got up.
It was a little after 7:00 in the evening. Before I could organize my thoughts in my head, I was already on my way to the stationery store.
The streets were quite quiet in the late evening.
There may be fewer people walking the streets as the weather is getting hotter, but the war between the imperial army and the criminals has the biggest impact.
Even if it is a war, it feels like a one-sided massacre, but externally it is.
I heard rumors that the other day, a criminal who was running away was caught holding a normal person and holding hostages.
For that reason, citizens did not go out to the streets at night, and even if they did, it became an unspoken rule to go in groups.
“The innkeeper was also annoyed at the lack of guests.”
As we got off the wide road and headed towards a small alley, the imperial soldiers stood out more than the citizens.
I walked alone, unlike people in groups, and I was a good prey for the imperial soldiers patrolling.
Every time I ran into them while patrolling, the imperial soldiers grabbed me and interrogated me, and I had to show my ID every time.
“Thank you for your cooperation.”
After checking my ID, the Imperials lightly bowed their heads and explained the situation.
“Criminals have been sneaking around lately by paying ordinary citizens to leave their luggage or deliver them instead. If a suspicious person makes such a request, you must absolutely refuse.”
“Yes. You are working hard.”
“Be careful on the road at night.”
Imperial soldiers greeted kindly and left.
It was a bit strange to say hello, but I decided to move on.
The story I heard from the Imperial Army was a criminal technique I was familiar with in my previous life.
“Is this the beginning of voice phishing…?”
Voice phishing. How long have you heard the word? Do you still remember
After talking and admiring myself, the stationery arrived before I knew it. The time we walked wasn’t that long, but after being checked 3 times, we arrived a little later than expected.
As if the construction of Haruchi had been completed, only construction materials were piled up, and safety belts were wrapped around my store to prevent people from approaching.
It was not possible to check how far the construction site had progressed because the construction site was not visible. Even though it was my land, I was scared to enter the construction site on my own.
“It’s a big deal if your head breaks.”
How many accidents occur due to lack of safety helmets?
“Huh? Do you still wear hard hats to work these days?”
Thoughts running through my head. Are there safety helmets in this era?
I’ve passed by construction sites a few times, but I couldn’t remember exactly what the workers were wearing.
I thought that there might be a lot of money coming out, so I remembered it in my head and headed to the warehouse behind the store.
Originally, it was a warehouse for storing wood and raw materials for crafts, but now it is used as a warehouse for stocking up on stationery.
Fortunately, it was a small warehouse built separately from the stationery, so it was safe even from the blow of the Doha Prius.
I opened the warehouse lock and checked meticulously to see if there was a thief (dragon), and was relieved to see the remaining inventory without any punctures.
“Now. So the problem is how to deliver bread to the Doha Prius.”
I don’t have a cell phone, so I have no way to contact you. It’s work to come here every 8 o’clock and wait.
“What is this, so extremely sincere?”
Standing in front of a shop under construction, staring at the bread in his hand. Isn’t this the guy who struggles to get the perfect score?
When I felt that way, Hyeon-ta came to visit me, but when I received her bread and thought of the girl I would like, I felt fine again.
While I was seriously contemplating whether I had a crush on him to the point of making a fuss, I found a female student with a familiar figure.
She proudly walks toward her front door.
Her guards, who were on duty while she was dozing off, began to open her heavy front door in a hurry, as if they had noticed her.
She raised her hand to greet the guards and the guards accepted her greeting with a hesitant look.
As soon as she passed through the main gate, the academy’s iron door was closed again, and the Doha Prius, who found me, chicly raised her hand and approached her.
“I was looking for it anyway! It just appeared right in front of my eyes?”
“So Doha-sama has finally captured the main gate?”
“Ahahahaha! You talk funny. Yes, I took over.”
She still boasts a dazzling appearance. Laughing so loudly that the streets of the night reverberated, she took a unique pose with her arms crossed.
“The headmaster gave me consideration for going normally. mmm!”
Maybe he raised a white flag to stop damaging property, not to be considerate.
I glanced at the iron gate that the Doha Prius had ripped off with force the other day. Now it’s been refurbished like brand new, but it must have cost a formidable amount.
There is no way that the academy built in the name of the emperor of the empire was built with absurd raw materials… Considering the magic given to it…
“Hmmm~”
Looking at the Doha Prius, somehow excited, I tried to estimate how much damage she would have done to the academy.
The dark-haired beauty eased her smile a little from her face and opened her mouth.
“I’m afraid it suddenly disappeared.”
After pronouncing it even, she paused her words.
“I’m afraid…”
“You almost broke it.”
The Doha Prius cracks its knuckles while smiling again.
I was guessing what she was going to say until I really said it, but as soon as I heard her joints snap, it disappeared as if erased with her eraser.
“I’m sorry. I couldn’t tell you because I was busy with the construction.”
“It’s been 4 days since I haven’t eaten bread. If I don’t have it today, I tried to open the warehouse and take it.”
“Ah…”
Her words don’t know where they went wrong. Missing the point to point out, I could only keep my mouth open like an idiot.
“Is that my bread?”
Doha The Prius pointed to the bread in my hand and then reached out to me.
Rather than the polite ‘give me’, ‘give it to me right now!’ A confident face as if to say. Her emotion was palpable in her eyebrows, which had already risen with anticipation.
It is a long-standing tradition for a small country to give gifts to a strong country. Maybe I wasn’t trying to look good for her, but was her poor man who naturally succumbed to the laws of her powers.
I obediently placed the chocolate conch bread on top of her hand.
“Thank you!”
The Doha Prius smiles like a child upon receiving the bread.
Who would believe that a woman who smiles innocently over a piece of bread is the most insane princess of the dragon tribe.
How are you? Stop if it looks good.
“The construction will take a little less than a month. It’s hard for me to take care of it every day…”
I rummaged through my pockets and pulled out an old key. As I pulled out the key, the Doha Prius focused on it as well.
“It’s the key to the warehouse in the back. Keep it and eat bread.”
It’s her spare storage key, which she made for her spare use, so it won’t be a big problem if you hand it over to her.
First of all, she took her key, looked at it for a long time, and then tilted her head up.
“Do you want me to take it out and eat it?”
“Yes.”
“Really?”
What is it? Of course I thought I would like it, but the Doha Prius turned out to be rather ambiguous.
She fidgeted with her key, then put it in her pocket. Even after taking her key, she stared blankly at me and didn’t say anything.
Are you taken aback by the sudden favor?
“I told you not to destroy even the warehouse. If I wasn’t there today, wouldn’t you have tried to forcefully open it and enter?”
“Huh? What, what? No? I’ll just check to see if it’s open. It’s like that?”
“Anyway. Please look at it that way for a while. It’s hard to come every time.”
Doha The Prius tried to say something more, but pressed his lips together. She was full of complaints, but she had no way of knowing about me.
For some reason, the dragon princess got angry and said no more. Choking at the awkward atmosphere, I decided to return to the inn.
“Then I’ll go.”
“That…!”
The Doha Prius opened its eyes wide in surprise when it was said that it was going back. As if an unknown force flowed out of her eyes, I bound my feet tightly so that they would not fall.
“Hey! Where do you live!”
She asks with an awkwardly loud voice and a rather frightening tone. Her ears were turning red in real time, as if she felt the same way.
Today, there are many people who strangely ask how they are doing. He recalled the greetings of the Imperial Army he encountered on the way.
“I’m staying at the inn on the intersection side. The night light inn. Do you know?”
Doha Prius shakes his head. It was so cute that I almost laughed without realizing it.
“I will stay there until the construction is finished.”
“House. Ah. Ah. I broke it…”
She was about to ask about my house, but when she saw the construction site next to her, her voice went down, perhaps reminding her of her sins.
I was just about to say that it was okay because I wondered if I made you talk for nothing. The Doha Prius grabbed me by the shoulder.
“Why is that?”
“I can’t do that either.”
I tried to ask her again, but I couldn’t get her words out because of her hand on her other shoulder.
Then the Doha Prius stares at me, burning eyes full of determination.”
“I will take responsibility and compensate.”
“If you don’t…”
“Hmm. No. This is a matter of honor to the Prius family and to me.”
If you’re going to do that, you’ve already done it. No, don’t break it in the first place.
The flames in the pupils of the Doha Prius shrank as I stared. And she turned her gaze just a little bit and stared at my philtrum instead of my eyes.
“Don’t worry, I’ll keep my promise. I’ll definitely pay you back.”
Her hand, which was on her shoulder, fell off with her solemn determination.
I couldn’t help but stare at her, completely unsure of how to respond to her bold aspirations.
My answer wasn’t that important. As for the Doha Prius, the fact that she declared it was important, but her plan was already underway in a flash.
“This is not the time. Go first!”
“Yes? Where. Mr. Doha!”
Doha Before he could hear me, the Prius jumped up and broke through the barriers of the academy.
For the first time in a while, the barrier that was forcibly breached shuddered and shook, but soon regained stability.
When I looked down, I met the eyes of the guardsman who was always waiting to open the door. The guards who had been waiting for her for over 30 minutes just stood there like an idiot, becoming a dog chasing chickens in an instant.
We probably felt the same emotions, and a deep inner intimacy developed that cannot be expressed in words.
“Cheer up.”
“Yes… Hyung, do your best…”
The guardsmen who also encouraged me returned to their seats with weak steps.
