Became a Hatchling of the Grand Duke of the North

57 – Bow your head, little things! (2)

A weekly newspaper was published.

[Uh, it’s a newspaper.]

[Really?]

Since many of the cadets were gathering and buzzing, Lucia and the guardian dragon Han, who squeezed in between them, were able to face the sight of newspapers piled up on the bookshelf beyond.

[Uh… Tea!]

New students and returning students.

Lucia managed to pick up one of them because they were mixed together and there was such a large crowd.

She managed to escape and waved it at Guardian Dragon Han with a happy face.

[Wow… Guardian Dragon, this is a newspaper that contains our content!]

[Kyik.]

Hando For now, they agreed.

However, there were some doubts behind the scenes.

‘By the way, actually… you’ve already received the newspaper, haven’t you? To the guy who thinks he’s in the newspaper department or the press department.’

As if trying to at least somehow resolve the question, she added a kind word.

[This is a proper edition, so you should take it with you.]

In what sense is it different from previous newspapers?

To Han, the guardian dragon, it doesn’t look much different from what he saw last time. The position of the photo or the text that looks like a topic sentence is also familiar.

Maybe the content is slightly different?

The difference between the first edition and the published edition is, at most, whether it was published for the first time or not.

There is nothing else.

Well, anyway.

Han, the guardian dragon, was her contract dragon.

If she likes his contractor Lucia, she likes him too.

Because of that, Han actually took sides with Lucia, even if she didn’t know why she was happy.

[Huh?]

[Uh, uh uh, that person can’t be!]

At that time, the eyes of several people who were watching the newspaper turned to them.

[This is Lucia!]

[The Guardian Dragon is also with him!]

[Ah… My God!]

As if they could no longer stand side by side in the same space and maintain the same eye level, they began to kneel in place one by one.

Then he put his hands together and started muttering something to them.

When I listened closely, I found that each of them was murmuring about their own wishes.

[Great Guardian Dragon…]

[A blessing to us humans…]

In the middle of the school hallway, a bizarre situation was created that suddenly became the focal point of receiving prayers.

[…]

It’s sh*t.

Han sincerely thought so.

If you want to pray, wouldn’t it be better to pray toward God?

There was no way that praying to him, who was only a beast or a monster that could use magic or a few things, would not come true.

However, they looked at him in awe and prayed openly as if whispering their wishes and secrets.

It was a part that made it easy to know what he thought.

[Uh, um, that’s… Sorry!]

Lucia, who didn’t know what to do for a while, apologized and left the scene as if running away.

* * * *

However, this absurd situation continued even after that.

[Isn’t that the guardian dragon over there?]

[Eh, where?!]

Is it an illusion?

Somehow after the newspapers started to be published and distributed in earnest, the number of people gathering their prayers while looking at Lucia and the Guardian Dragon began to increase.

Well, I don’t think there’s anything strange about it.

Until now, at most, the existence of Lucia and Han was only known through noble families.

It was only natural that the aristocratic source would move faster than the average commoner.

But not anymore.

There was a newspaper.

Their existence was revealed in earnest, and their appearance was properly revealed through vivid photos.

Those who have passed by have thought, ‘Could it be? If I had only looked at it with the eyes of ‘by any chance?’.

After the newspaper was published, they were convinced that they were from the Northern Grand Duke’s family, and at once they knelt down on the spot with longing eyes.

[Guardian Dragon and Guardian of the North, ah-…]

Those who face them kneel like a reed bent at the waist.

The ripple effect was more than expected.

Especially for the commoners who have little contact with the aristocrats.

The respect for the dragon, a superior being, was high. Perhaps it was because he was such an existence that he had never encountered in his entire life.

Of course, to Han, the guardian dragon with the temperament of an arrogant dragon who looks down on everything on earth, this was the kind of thing he would never hesitate to do.

He lightly stepped on the head of one of the cadets who was praying for him and climbed on top of him.

[Su, Guardian Dragon…!]

The sound of a startled Lucia trying to stop him came from afar, but he didn’t care this time.

Instead he.

Standing tall on top of his head with his eyes narrowly raised to a half-moon, he looked around at the people around him.

[Kieack!]

He spread his wings wide, revealing his presence.

The meaning of the sound was roughly this.

‘Everyone bow down to me. These insignificant things.’

[Guardian Dragon… And…]

[Envy, me too…]

They all look at each other with an expression of awe.

Han, the guardian dragon standing tall among them, proudly spread his wings wide.

I feel the supreme majesty of this dragon for the first time in a while.

Yeah, if you think about it, Han has always been like that.

It was like that when I was living in the distant frozen land, the Grand Duke of the North.

Somewhere in the middle of a high-ranking wizard, Talia, who was unsophisticated, used to worship him as the god of magic.

From that point of view, Yone and Arcana were strange.

One of them thought of himself as a troublemaker with wings, and the other as a disciple who needed to learn magic.

‘Yes. That this was normal They were weird.’

[Ah, ah… Guardian Dragon stepped on me…]

To make his face blush because you lightly stepped on his head with his bare feet.

Truly, as long as he is a guardian dragon, he has no time to know what happened to the minds of the people in this world.

The other commoner students were staring at me with envy.

Some of them said [Me too… I also want…] With their eyes shining strongly.

‘Wait a minute.

At that time, a terrifying thought came to his mind as he stared at the intellects lacking somewhere.

‘At this point, how about creating my own church? Something like the Guardian Dragon Church that supports the Guardian Dragon. Wouldn’t that be bad at all?’

Thinking about it, it seems like it will work out somehow.

But within,

He realized there was a fatal flaw in it.

Even if he didn’t have to establish such a religious order, he was already an object of worship.

The eyes that are already looking at oneself now are all in this field.

This means that nothing will change no matter what we do here.

* * * *

On the other hand, at the same time.

In the case of Yone, who was chasing after Princess Rachel, she was in trouble in a different sense from Lucia.

“You don’t have to worry about it, Yone. Don’t just refuse, accept it.”

“Oh, that, that…”

The moment you hesitate and try to say no.

The other party recognized Yone’s appearance like a ghost and disappeared into the far hallway at once.

“Ah, ah…”

Yone stared at the boy walking away with a helpless expression and reached out his hand.

There was no such thing as being caught.

“Haa… What should I do with this?”

Yone let out a long sigh.

In her hand was a rather large bouquet, but at a glance it was unusual in size.

She was in such a difficult situation to carry this, at least for her, that her next class was just around the corner.

But what was even more embarrassing was that the person who handed it over was none other than a nobleman.

How the hell did she know, the bastard of the Ferdinando family whom she had met at her entrance ceremony the other day came to her and handed her a bouquet.

As a result, it was a natural result that all eyes around her were focused on her.

“Ahhh…”

“Hmm? What are you doing there?”

While her face turned red, she didn’t know what to do.

Princess Rachel, who had finished all her business from afar, was returning.

It was a natural result that her gaze also naturally turned to the thing in Yone’s hand.

“Oh, my God. Is that in her hand? Isn’t that a bouquet! Congratulations indeed It looks like you’ll have a lover in just a few days after entering school.”

“Wow, it’s the princess-!”

Yone was in tears all of a sudden.

Of course yo she’s new for a few days. Princess Rachel, who was taking her class with her, was well aware that it was her signal for help.

She giggled for a while before adding.

“It’s a joke, a joke. Rather, I wonder who sent it.”

“That, that’s what… That ferry from the other day? Pra Laland too? You know that strange bastard who said…”

“Ah, that person.”

The expression was strange, but Princess Rachel understood it perfectly.

The family of Baron Ferdinando. Even in the aristocratic family, he was at the lowest rank, and even the opponent was the bastard and the collateral.

The prestige of the nobility was virtually non-existent.

Muttering to herself, ‘Then it doesn’t matter,’ she threw her bouquet straight into the trash can next to her.

“Ah, ahhh…!”

Yone grabbed her head in surprise at that unexpected and violent action.

“Hwa, Hwa, Hwa Hwa Princess! What is this all of a sudden!”

However, Princess Rachel only shed a friendly smile.

“Don’t worry. Even if it’s a bouquet from a count, not a baron, it’ll be the same in the trash can in front of me. Come sooner than that, the next lecture is not too far away.”

Saying that, she first slowly moved her steps…
