[Comprehensive Yingmei] I'm already a useless dragon

Under the clear sky, beside the forest surrounded by tall cedar trees, there is a large piece of verdant grass, with large and small stones scattered on the edge of the lawn, and behind it is a clear stream.

A boy with black hair stretched his legs and sat on a flat rock in front of the creek. When he was looking down and wondering what to think, he heard a cracking sound in his ears. He raised his hand reflexively to catch it, and found that it was a baseball. .

Frowning and looking up, the young man with golden brown hair, whose skin was glowing in the sun, was walking towards him, with a smile on his lips.

On a rare weekend, Edward and the others got used to the humid climate in Fox Town, and wanted to go home to discuss the latest progress with the Carlisle couple. Edward also invited Ivan to come over to play—

As a result, when I came back, I found that there was also a cloudless blue sky.

So before discussing things, there was such an outdoor activity as going out to play baseball.

When he got outside, he found that Ivan didn't seem to be very interested. He was sitting on a rock next to him thinking about something. He guessed it was the thing he said on the plane. He casually threw it in Ivan's direction.

"So? He broke up with you? And you are distressed because of this?"

Ivan put the ball at his feet, looked away uncomfortably, and took a long time to look back. I don’t know what to think of, and I struggled with what to do for a while, then sighed as if giving up, and turned back. said a sentence:

"...not very distressed."

Edward chuckled, waved to Alice who called him over, and let them continue playing.He sat down on another cold stone that was slightly shorter next to Ivan, because of the height difference, even if he sat in a low place, he didn't look short at all.

He squinted at the boy next to him, and what he saw was the top of his head, and suddenly raised his hand in a wicked way to compare the height of the other boy's head to his shoulder, and he didn't know if it was to divert Ivan's attention , he jokingly said:

"I've known you for so long, why don't you seem to be half a centimeter long?"

Ivan turned his head quietly, looking at the friend who unconsciously stabbed him in the wound again, the color in the light blue eyes gradually settled.

Edward felt that his cold and silent heart seemed to be beating accordingly, and was startled by the aura in his eyes.

This... is this a sudden thunderstorm?

He pondered for a few seconds in embarrassment, and was about to change the subject again, when he suddenly felt a gust of knife-like wind blowing across his face, jumped a long distance away from the spot, and subconsciously raised his hand. hands, and said:

"Hey, sorry sorry, I was joking."

He was really afraid that in the next second, Ivan would cut off the head with a blank face and the invisible wind.

Ivan snorted lightly, the storm in his eyes dissipated silently, and returned to his calm and breezy appearance. He lazily raised his hand and hooked his left index finger to him, signaling him to come back and sit down.

Edward shook his head helplessly, walked back to him and sat down again, just when he was about to say something else, Ivan said without warning:

"It's not like, it's the fact."

"What?" Edward froze for a moment.

Ivan looked at the few vampires in the distance who were left with only afterimages due to sprinting on the lawn, and their unusual ball games, and said softly as if casually: "Because I can't grow taller now—— Or maybe forever."

Edward suddenly realized how much of a secret what he said was, but the words he blurted out were faster than his awareness:

"why?"

why?

I also wonder why.

Ivan propped his hands behind his back and looked up at the blue sky. The tops of trees of different heights in the distance formed a landscape of different heights. The blue sky fell into his eyes, giving his eyes The indifference in the eyes was covered with a warm illusion.

He was quiet for a while, and then asked, "If you saw a guy who would stand by your side in the future, but who is obviously too weak to imagine now, what would you do?"

Edward was so amused by his description of 'unbelievably weak' that he couldn't straighten up for a long time.

Only then did he realize that the kid in front of him cared so much about power, that it seemed to be his only criterion for judging others——

After a long time, he sat up straight again, looked at Ivan's side face seriously with gray blue charming eyes, and said half jokingly and half seriously: "I will be very happy."

Ivan was a little stunned, not quite understanding where he was so happy.

"If I am willing to have a very weak person by my side, I will be very happy - she must be my baby, and I will protect her with all my strength."

The black-haired boy turned his head to look at him for a while, raised his eyebrows, and stopped talking, not knowing what he was thinking about.

"What is the purpose of becoming stronger?" Edward next to him crossed his hands, resting his elbows on his thighs, resting his chin on the back of his hands, and watching the members of the Cullen family playing baseball happily in the distance——Jasper tried He sneaked away and was discovered by Alice, who raised her hand and caught her, so that the ball thrown by Esme flew far away and he couldn't move in place. Rosalie leisurely brushed her hair, Trot out to pick up the ball.

In order to succeed in transforming the dragon.

It took Ivan less than a second to get the answer in his heart.

"Maybe you have different reasons, but except for a very few guys who fantasize about destroying the world all day long, the reason most people gain power is because they want to use it to protect others." Edward held a strand of hair on his lips. With a faint smile, he slowly accepted it.

Ivan sat quietly, without speaking or changing his posture, as if in a daze, but Edward knew he had listened.

He stood up from where he was, smiled and said, "Let's go, go play, you plan to sit here all afternoon?"

Ivan stood up from the spot with one hand in his pocket, picked up the baseball that was at his feet, and followed him to the field.

"Wow, Ivan, you came just in time! They always cheat! I'm going to be the referee!" Seeing him coming, the mature woman standing next to Carlisle—Esme, smiled at him friendly, Take the initiative to give up the position to him.

Ivan hadn't had much experience with this sport, so he planned to take a look at it first, with a slight arc on his lips, and replied slowly: "It's okay, I want to read the rules first—by the way, it should be better to blow cheaters to the sky. Easy?"

Hearing his words, the other vampires suddenly felt that their running steps were sinking.

Four p.m.

After the event, a group of people walked down the mountain and inadvertently smelled a particularly strong smell.

Ivan turned his head sideways, and his eyes wandered across the opposite woods, capturing a huge black shadow that flashed by.

At this moment, Edward explained in a low voice: "It's a werewolf living in this area."

"You guys are so friendly that you are in the same room with the enemy?" Ivan closed his eyes and asked him softly.

Edward didn't know how to answer Ivan's question for a while. He always felt that after Ivan asked this question, his family's fighting power had fallen to the bottom of his mind.

"The reason is more complicated. It can be regarded as dividing regions and governing them separately." After thinking about it, he still tried his best to save his family's combat effectiveness.

Ivan looked at him for a while, then suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed at the jungle on the other side with his thumb:

"Then humans can come and go freely?"

Edward didn't know why, so he turned his gaze to that side, and saw a girl with long black hair standing on the opposite bank. She was waving to greet herself opposite unexpectedly. It seemed that she didn't expect to meet the Karen family here. a member of.

How could she be there?Especially since I saw a giant wolf passing through the woods just now, it is not a safe activity to come to the woods alone.

Edward frowned, as if hesitating whether to go over and persuade her to leave.

At this moment, Ivan who was standing next to him said without warning: "She likes you?"

"Ah?" The blond-haired young man's eyes showed a bit of confusion and embarrassment, he reacted belatedly, looked down at the black-haired boy, and said helplessly and amusedly:

"what are you saying……"

Ivan glanced at him with his pale blue eyes, as if I had already seen through you, snorted lightly, quickened his pace, and walked down the road down the mountain here without looking back.

He has seen this kind of look too much, so he can distinguish it without any effort.

Before finally walking into the woods, he glanced back - the young man finally ran to the edge of the cliff here, and said something to the girl opposite, although there was no expression on his face, it was only between acquaintances. Smiling, with a thin expression on his face, he showed some handsomeness that belonged to his facial features alone.

Ivan seemed to suddenly understand the meaning of what he said before.

He squinted his eyes, his long eyelashes blocked the emotion in his eyes, his thin lips parted slightly, and he said words that only he could hear——

"Protect?"

Be strong just because you want to protect?

He didn't try to do anything for this reason, but he seemed to have protected that person many times, consciously or unconsciously, consciously or unconsciously.

He didn't know when he started, but he was used to having one more person in his life, used to paying attention to each other's every move - because he was worried that he would be in danger in a place he couldn't see in the next second.

He drew his attention back, and saw the young man running towards him after parting with the girl, his light blue eyes contained a teasing smile that only belonged to bad friends.

Edward didn't want to look at him. He deliberately tried to cool down but failed. He called his name as a reminder: "Ivan, don't look at me with such strange eyes."

Ivan withdrew his eyes from the ground, subconsciously looked at the back of the girl in the distance, pondered for a second and replied:

"Ok."

Edward: ... If it's okay, put away your strange eyes!You see me well!

The author has something to say: Little Theater:

Ivan: ...Hmph, if you leave the group first, I will send you to heaven.

Edward: ...? ? ?Wait, you have nothing to blame me for?

Ivan [unreasonable]: Yes.

Edward: ...? ? ? ?

Good night babies!
