Became a Hatchling of the Grand Duke of the North

38 – Blizzard Dragon (2)

Flash.

When Han opened his eyes, the first thing he felt was ‘itchy’.

‘What is it?’

He chewed and scratched his stomach.

For some reason, my whole body itched. It felt as if mosquitoes were sticking to my whole body and sucking my blood.

It was a strange feeling.

‘No, something is wrong with your body?’

Han nervously rubbed his body around me.

Because my body was so itchy, the only way to get rid of this itchy feeling on my own was to rub against the bed.

Your body tickles, and your face tickles. I want to roll my whole body in a mess and tear it apart.

There was no end to rubbing and rubbing the body.

Compared to when I first woke up, the intensity of that tickling has gotten worse and worse.

It was to the point where I felt something strange.

‘Is something wrong?’

Kei!

In the end, Han, who could not stand it, jumped out of bed nervously and started rolling on the floor in the room.

Then he scratched his itchy spot on the ground.

Buck! Buck!

Around the time when that violent act continued for some time.

[Umm… Guardian Dragon…?]

Lucia, who had fallen asleep, was finally awakened by a series of random disturbances from early in the morning.

Rubbing her eyes, she woke up and looked at Han, who was rolling across the floor.

[What are you doing?]

‘Lucia! You woke up!’

Han ran over to her and fell flat on her face.

Then I let out a sound, exposing my back.

[Key-!]

It was a kind of request. To scratch your back.

[…?]

But there was no way Lucia would know that.

She blinked her sleepy eyes, then looked at Han, who sent her longing eyes and asked.

[Why is that?]

‘Ah, scratch it quickly! Lucia!’

And then, Han could not stand the tingling feeling that soared again and started rolling around on the bed.

His back was the only part he couldn’t rub himself.

He had his own legs, so he was a guardian dragon that could scratch anywhere on his body. Even so, his front legs did not reach all the way to the back of his back.

It was because the structure and body proportions were completely different from humans.

A dragon’s arm is truly full.

It’s so short that it doesn’t even reach the back.

Roughly, to express the extent of the ratio in an easy-to-understand manner.

The dragon’s front legs were short enough to barely touch the side opposite to itself. Just like Tyrannosaurus’ forelimbs were terribly short.

Simply put, it’s a very disastrous level.

[Ki-!]

Buck buck!

As if he was nearing a seizure, he started rubbing and scratching himself against the posts all over the bed.

Only then did Lucia let out a soft exclamation as if she had noticed something about her too.

[Perhaps, Guardian Dragon. Are you asking me to scratch your back? Am I right?]

Yes, that’s right! It’s Lucia! That’s it!

At that moment, Han sensed a surge of consciousness in him.

He hurried over to her and held out her back.

[Uh… Uhm. Can I just scrape it like this…]

So Lucia started scratching his back.

At first, he was extremely cautious, but soon after realizing how hard the scales were, he began to apply strength little by little.

And then.

[Kiii-.]

Han fell down on the bed, slumped for a moment.

It felt like the nerves that had been on edge were about to die.

‘Ah. Cool…’

[How is it, do you like it?]

Of course. Good every So let’s do some more.

While I was thinking about it, the itch that I didn’t know the cause of was gradually going away, and instead another thing filled up there.

Grumble.

The next step after itching was now hunger.

He quietly enjoyed Lucia’s touch for a long time.

Suddenly, he stood up vigorously from her pod and made a short noise as he met her eyes.

[Keee-.]

It was a very gentle sound, like a little baby bird asking for something from its mother bird.

Of course, Lucia already knew the meaning of that sound.

It was a familiar sound that I had heard many times before.

She smiled and replied.

[You must be hungry now. All right. I’ll call Yone soon.]

With that said, the figure of her standing up.

Han watched her calmly, with her observer’s gaze on her.

It wasn’t as long as I had great curiosity about each and every one of her actions.

However, apart from that, watching over her Lucia gave Han, her guardian dragon, a feeling of inner satisfaction that could not be expressed in words alone.

I wonder if it gave me a strange joy in the dark.

[Hmm~, Hmm~.]

Looking back and forth in the mirror for a while, Lucia tidied her tousled hair during the night.

[Kit!]

Soon after, he took off his nightgown and threw it away, revealing his flesh-colored skin.

Han hurriedly hid his head between a pile of fluffy blankets.

Although we’ve been together for several days already.

No matter how I look at it, I couldn’t get used to this sudden moment.

* * * *

‘I’m hungry.’

I don’t know.

At first, I was so hungry that I didn’t even think about it.

It was because his body was dominated by an intense sense of hunger close to pain.

Because of that, Han was still holding the baby bottle in Lucia’s arms, swallowing it with a gulp.

Han bit the bottle without permission.

He ate most of the bottle in no time, but there was still not enough to satisfy his hunger.

‘More. More.’

He squeezed hard with his little, stubby front paws, grasping the bottle and squeezing it with all his might.

But he never came out again.

Of course, I was well aware of that fact.

I had already eaten all the baby food in the baby bottle. But how much will it come out if I try to squeeze more here?

Probably a few more drops at most.

But apart from that, his body played independently of his intellect.

I was just acting instinctively to fill my still hungry stomach because my hunger instinct was strong.

[Ego. Guardian Dragon?]

What was handed out to Han was a new baby bottle.

[Since you’ve finished eating that, please eat a new one. Please put it down.]

As if trying to seduce Han.

Lucia began to draw her attention by tossing the new baby bottle back and forth in front of him.

Sniff. Sniff sniff.

I wonder if he was entrusted with the smell of milk that was starting to emanate from the surroundings.

Han sniffed his nose and flinched. Soon after, the front paws that were holding the empty baby bottle relaxed, and she reached out with her new baby bottle.

[Kiii.]

[Whoops.]

Seeing him so calmly changing to a new bottle, Lucia smiled and patted his head.

And there was another person watching.

The Grand Duke of Lucrezia.

She opened her mouth with a smile that was barely visible on the corners of her mouth.

[The Guardian Dragon has grown a lot lately. Now, one bottle is not enough for breakfast, and you already have two.]

Even so, Lucrezia watched Han carefully.

Han’s teeth and claws had grown to the point where they were quite sharp.

I’m no longer as young and blocky as I used to be.

It was to the point where I could see that there was something called ‘day’.

Perhaps recognizing the change, Lucrezia opened her mouth.

[Looks like it won’t be long before the Guardian Dragon will eat meat too. Your teeth have grown a lot.]

[Is that so, Head of Household?]

[Yes.]

This mealtime was an important time for her to check the guardian dragon’s condition.

She couldn’t just come to see her resentment unconditionally. It was because the work in this castle was always busy.

[Hmm?]

But suddenly.

Lucrezia raised a question in her eyes as if she had noticed something strange.

Gulp. Gulp.

The scales of Han frantically biting a baby bottle.

Looking at the sunlight coming from outside, it seemed a bit washed out.

It was a strange thing.

[What’s happening?]

[Why are you like that, Head of Household?]

Lucrecia, stepping closer, brushed the scales of Han with her soft hand, not paying attention to Lucia’s question.

She checked her own hand.

Somehow, that strange look seemed right. It was the correct answer.

Something came out.

[This?]

Her eyebrows came together.

When I touched it, it was white and fluffy.

It was like small debris.

Soon, as if he had guessed something, Lucrezia asked Lucia.

[Lucia. Would you give me the guardian dragon for once?]

[Ah. All right.]

Lucrezia cautiously handed over the bottle and began to look him over.

[Grrr-.]

Han groaned as if he was in a good mood even in the midst of frantically filling his stomach.

Because it was Lucrezia’s touch that he hadn’t seen in a while, it seemed like he was happy with just that.

[Ah.]

That bird, Lucrezia, discovered an abnormality. Also, that’s right.

[Why is that?]

She asked her own daughter’s question as she seemed puzzled.

Soon after, she smiled softly.

[The grand duke’s family has once again been inclined, Lucia.]

[…?]

[The guardian dragon seems to be trying to escape. It seems to grow even bigger than now.]
