Chapter 12 (1/2)

Episode 12.

“Kyaaa!”

The dragon’s green blood splattered in all directions, and Quangi screamed like a human being.

“Don’t kill our Quangi!”

When Riya saw Quangi’s blood, she flipped her eyes and bounced off and hung on Yucal’s neck.

At that moment, Quangyi roared vigorously, spread his wings and soared high into the sky.

Surprised, Riya and Yucal looked up at the flying Quangi.

Yucal quickly pushed Riya and soared to chase the dragon, but it was after the figure of the green dragon had already risen high in the sky and disappeared.

“Quangi… He flew away…”

Riya looked up at the sky as if she couldn’t believe it and looked down at the ground soaked in Quangi’s green blood.

“Sob. What if he gets hurt a lot?”

Yucal stared at her as if she were incredible.

“I missed the dragon because of you. I can’t believe a baby dragon flew just a day after he was born. It must be clear that the imperial family will do something about it.”

“Right! Quangi is a baby who’s only been born for a day, but you’re stabbing him so cruelly. What if my Quang dies while flying away?”

In front of Riya, who shouted with her eyes full of tears, Yucal shook his head in wonder.

“Crazy. Aren’t you ashamed of being a member of the imperial family of the Hernian Empire?”

“No! I’m more ashamed of you. Because You’re so cruel. I read in the book that the dragons attack us because humans hunted them first. It is because of the cruel humans who provoked them who had been living well!”

When Riya shouted excitedly and pointed, Yucal was surprised and opened his eyes.

“Riya Lisburn, are you really crazy?”

“If Quangi’s body is found later, I will never forgive you!”

Riya stared at him vigorously and strode forward.

“Hey, stop!”

Yucal stared at her and shouted.

“Hmph, I will never listen to your orders.”

Angry Riya rolled up the hem of her dress and squealed as soon as she took a step forward.

“Kyaa!”

After the scream, she fainted on the spot. A zebra snake parasitic in the northern forest was twisting and biting her heel.

Yucal, who first found the zebra snake waiting in front of her, warned her to stop, but she eventually refused to listen. Now, poison will spread all over her body.

Yucal sighed and walked over to her and lifted her up, hugging her back.

Then he grabbed her ankle and slashed her wound with the tip of his sword on the sole of her foot. It was a magic sword that neutralized poison.

Riya opened her eyes on the bed. Then, she stared blankly at her wounded right foot with a bandage.

“What’s going on.”

However, Miryu shook his head instead of answering. Her face was very teary.

“What’s wrong?”

Riya looked at her blankly and felt strange, so she raised her head and looked up at the ceiling. And in the end, she couldn’t help screaming. Looking up, Quangi was floating in the air and looking down at her.

“Quang-ah!”

Riya jumped up and spread her arms toward him.

“Auntie! Auntie!”

Quangi, who folded his wings and gently sat down under the bed, rolled his golden eyes and called her repeatedly.

“Why didn’t you go home? Are you lost? I guess you didn’t meet the other dragons.”

While trying to pet Quangi, Riya noticed that his shoulder was soaked in green blood.

“Oh, my. What should I do?”

“Bad guy! Bad guy!”

Quangi moaned and rubbed his face against Riya’s knee, pretending to be weak.

Miryu, who was watching, shook her head as if she was tired.

“Madam, I don’t think he’s an ordinary dragon. Oh, I have a feeling that he would never want to be separated from Madam for the rest of his life.”

“It’s okay. It’s because he’s still a baby. It’ll be different when he’s a little bigger.”

On the other hand, Riya was happy to hug Quangi, who managed to come back to her. Although it was weird for him to survive and come back to her.

‘How could he have come all the way here without being caught?’

Anyway, after barely putting Quangi to sleep, who was shaking and making noise, Riya finally sighed.

“Miryu, where can I get medicine to treat his wounds?”

She couldn’t touch Quangi’s wound because it was said that the dragon’s blood was toxic, and it numbed her heart to think how painful it must have been.

“I’m sure Yucal-nim or Seir-nim have one. Since they are the people who spend a lot of time on the battlefield, I’m sure they’ll have some medicine to treat wounds.”

“Really?”

Riya’s mind was mixed up when Miryu answered her. Now she just remembered about Seir.

“By the way, what happened to Seir-nim?”

“I thought he really died because of you, Madam. But as soon as Seir woke up, he took Madam’s pajamas and left.”

“What? Why did he do that? Is he crazy”

“Seir-nim said that Madam should come over to his bedroom tonight to find your pajamas, Madam. And he was laughing while saying it.”

Riya got goosebumps all over her body.

“I guess Seir-nim thought that Madam was so shy that you hit him and ran away. I definitely heard him muttering out that Madam was cute or something. Anyway, it’s a relief.”

“What do I do with this? I can’t even go to eat before I can get medicine to treat Quangi’s wounds.”

“Madam, you’re so weird. It was your goal in your life to be loved by Seir. Why do you keep avoiding him? Are you scared of Madam Elijah’s jealousy?”

“No, that’s not it. It’s because there are more complicated circumstances.”

It won’t be easy to explain to Miryu that her reason is because she is afraid of dying.

When she answered briefly with a worried face, Miryu shouted as if she remembered it.

“Oh, Madam, come to think of it, Madam Elijah’s house also has some flower pots that have healing power.”

Even before Miryu could stop her, Riya jumped up like a spring and ran outside.

She was willing to lick Elijah’s soles in order to treat Quangi’s wound immediately.

But, as expected, servants and maids flocked to block Riya when she reached Elijah’s mansion.
