Cheshire couldn’t take his eyes off.

The blue dragon that suddenly appeared at Zeke’s call trampled on the crude sculpture made by Cheshire, showing off the majesty of a real dragon.

Cheshire, overwhelmed by the sight, could only stare blankly without saying anything.

A powerful flame soon spewed out.

Her whole body felt like it was on fire.

“Ha… Haa..!”

The dragon is famous as an imaginary animal.

It is a virtual being created by human imagination that cannot actually exist.

Sometimes, there were people who claimed that the dragon was real, but it was not accepted because there was no evidence.

But the evidence appeared before Cheshire’s eyes.

Evidence so clear that nothing can deny it.

The dragon was real.

It was almost exactly the same as what appeared in many stories.

“Really… There was..!”

Cheshire was confused.

The mere fact that dragons exist is so confusing,

That dragon is even following Zeke’s orders.

Cheshire couldn’t understand this situation.

That’s why I gave up on understanding.

“As expected, it’s Zeke..!”

This was one sentence that would explain the current situation.

Nothing is impossible for Zeke.

So it is pointless to question it.

After being convinced, Cheshire decided to focus on what he had to do.

It’s about enjoying this situation.

He watches as the wonderland he worked so hard to create is turned upside down by Zeke.

Cheshire clutched his heated lower body and trembled.

“Of course, Zeke is the best..!”

The day before heading to Cheshire’s Wonderland.

I came to a dark and damp cave a little away from the administration office.

“Lyuka?”

As I entered the entrance, I called the name of the owner who lives in this cave.

There was no need to sing loudly because it resonated on its own if you made a moderate sound.

“Ah, Zeke! Now, wait a minute..!”

Ryuka’s voice echoed from inside the cave.

Judging from the panicked voice, it seemed like they had messed up the cave again.

Why do they only clean when I come every day?

“, you can come in now..!”

“Ugh… .”

I sighed softly and entered the cave.

“Z, Zeke. welcome… .”

A huge blue dragon crouched to greet me.

When I looked around, all kinds of novels were piled up in a heap, as if they had been roughly cleaned up, and trash was also piled up on one side.

If this was going to be the case, why did I ask him to wait?

“Uh, what happened this time..? Ho, do I have to go to the North Continent again..?”

Whenever I went to the North Continent to meet Azta, I always rode Ryuka.

The Ryuka is faster than an airplane, does not require additional space for takeoff or landing, and allows you to get on and off wherever you want, making it the best means of transportation.

But this time, we have to go somewhere other than the North Continent.

“It’s not the North Continent this time.”

“Well, then where is it..?”

“Hmm… .”

I checked Ryuka’s condition.

Shrunken shoulders, awkward hands that have lost their way, an expression that doesn’t seem confident, and a trembling body.

Even at first glance, it looks like crap.

‘This is a dragon… .’

This doesn’t work.

A dragon like this cannot satisfy that cat bitch.

“Ryuka, let’s practice acting with me.”

“Woman, acting..?”

“Yes. I’m playing a very majestic dragon. You said you wanted to be that kind of dragon before, right? It went well.”

“Ah… Well, all you have to do is practice… Me?”

“If you have practiced, of course you have to practice.”

“Aaaah..! Oh, no!”

“No, I haven’t even heard of it. Why is it already not working?”

“You have to act in front of other people! Well, I can’t… Mumu, mumu, it’s scary..!”

Ryuka shook his head vigorously as if he was genuinely upset.

“It’s called acting, but it’s not the kind of theater you think. They just show up when I give the signal, vent their frustration, and that’s it. There will only be one person.”

“Ha, but… still… Oh, it’s scary… .”

I’ll be amazed.

“Hey, first change into human form. My neck hurts when I look up.”

“Yes… .”

A bright light enveloped Ryuka’s body.

The huge body gradually became smaller and stopped at a size slightly larger than me.

Long light light blue hair and mysterious blue eyes.

A beautiful woman with a strange aura appeared in a dress reminiscent of the night sky.

[Heroine profile]

Name: Ryuka

Height: 186cm / Difficulty level: B

Progress: 100% / Like level: 5

The last survivor of the dragon race, which became extinct hundreds of years ago and is now considered an imaginary animal.

Ryukada is a hikikomori dragon who has given away all the dignity of a dragon.

Before it froze, humans and dragons lived on the North Continent.

The two races lived well on their own, fighting and coexisting.

But one day, a woman called the Frost Witch appeared.

Simultaneously with the appearance of witches, an ice age came to the Northern Continent.

The ecosystem of the forest where dragons live was destroyed by the harsh cold, where life could not survive, and human civilization collapsed.

The dragon clan united to defeat the witch.

Some fled to other continents, but most of the dragons remained in the North Continent because they were creatures full of pride and pride.

When the dragons united, humans also united.

Those who divided their territory and waged war against each other joined forces in front of a great enemy called a witch.

There was no winner in the war of ice and flame.

The witch lost her body and was sealed in a huge ice cube.

However, even though the witch was sealed, the Ice Age did not stop.

‘The frost witch’s seal is still intact, but the northern continent is frozen.’

Most of the dragons lost their lives, and the humans did the same.

Those who survived could not afford to flee to another continent.

They just waited for their wounded bodies to freeze in the bitter cold.

Ryuka, who was a young dragon at the time, fled to the Central Continent with his family.

However, the Central Continent was taken aback by the sudden influx of dragons in droves, and mistakenly thought they were invading the Central Continent.

‘I don’t know if I’m really mistaken.’

The dragons tried to solve the problem through conversation, but they did not know the language of the central continent.

In the end, they had to fight to survive.

Dragon hunting took place on a large scale in the Central Continent, and since there were not many dragons that came over, they were easily annihilated.

Ryuka’s parents were also hunted, and young Ryuka hid in a cave to avoid being pursued by humans.

For hundreds of years.

Records of dragons were lost with time.

However, because there were stories passed down orally, the appearance of the dragon that people imagined was very similar to the reality.

Even though everyone has forgotten about the dragon, she is still afraid of humans and even going outside.

Since the strategy has already been completed, there is no need to normalize Ryuka.

If you just leave it alone, it will live quietly in the cave.

But sometimes that damn phobia is annoying when you need it.

In particular, Ryuka’s flying ability is quite useful.

What a trash idea.

“Ryuka, don’t worry too much. It’s not dangerous. It’s not that you don’t trust me, right?”

“I believe you… still… .”

“If you do well, I will give you a reward.”

“Really…?”

Ryuka showed interest when he heard that there would be a prize.

I felt like I was coaxing an innocent person with mental problems into doing something bad, but I guess it’s okay.

“Yes. Since I’m asking you a difficult favor this time, I’ll shoot big.”

“Wow… .”

It is obvious that this is what the novel otaku, who stays in his cave and reads novels endlessly, wants.

What was your name? Dilio? Dalio? Anyway, an unpublished manuscript and autograph from the author of a novel that Ryuka is obsessed with would be enough.

If necessary, it is possible to bring the writer here.

It’s good for Ryuka to meet his favorite author, and it’s good for the author to get inspiration, so it’s a win-win.

You might need some silence.

“So, are you going to do it?”

“Ha, I’ll do it..! You can do it..!”

“Good.”

You seem more motivated than usual.

After all, punishment for personal injury is always right.

*

“Hmm… . There are more than just two things that need to be fixed.”

There were many mountains that Ryuka had to overcome in order to shed her dullness and become a majestic dragon.

First, you need to fix those awkward gestures and awkward posture.

Just by being confident, a person’s mood changes.

Especially for a dragon the size of a house, just standing there is enough to make it intimidating.

So, you should at least correct your posture so as not to flinch.

‘Next is the tone of voice.’

My voice is quiet because I lack confidence.

And he always trails off at the end of his words.

In addition, he sometimes stutters and uses strange chuimsae.

“Ha… . There are a lot of things that need to be fixed. Well then, let’s start with a name.”

“, what’s your name..? I like the name now… .”

“I’m just writing this for a moment. It’s kind of like a nickname or title. I really don’t change my name or anything.”

“Well, if that’s the case… .”

Ryuka stayed alone in a cave for hundreds of years.

Of course, there was no one to call her by her name, so she naturally forgot her real name.

Naturally, shit, who in the world forgot their name? You bitch.

Anyway, I gave the name Ryuka roughly.

Originally, I was going to do something a little quirky, but nothing came to mind and it didn’t go well with what I was doing, so I ended up going with something cute.

The problem is that Gao doesn’t live if you call him Ryuka in front of Cheshire.

‘I need a name that’s really cool, charismatic, and catchy.’

“Ryuka, do you remember the verb?”

“Jo, only a little… .”

Dragons have their own language.

It is called the language of the dragon, or Yongeon for short.

From Ryuka’s perspective, it can be considered her native language, but it’s been so long since she hasn’t used it that she doesn’t remember it very well.

‘It’s not natural to forget your name.’

Anyway, by using verbs, you can come up with a name that seems reasonably plausible.

This is the kind of effect that makes even seemingly insignificant words feel meaningful when you use English or Chinese characters.

“Then, use verbs to create your own nickname. Like flying thunder or a nightmare in the night sky.”

“Stir… Is Zeke calling you that nickname?”

“Yes. Who else but me would call the dragon’s name carelessly?”

“Well, then I have something in mind… .”

“What is it?”

“…Sa-Kaniel. It means blue dragon… .”

It is called a blue dragon based on its appearance.

It’s okay. It would have been nice if it had been a little fancier.

“Sachaniel… . Not bad.”

“Stir… Zeke… Can you call me by that nickname just once..?”

“It’s not difficult. Sacchaniel?”

“Yes..!”

There’s something strange about the answer.

Why are you doing that?

“You shouldn’t react that way in real life. You must act with dignity. I’m going to practice from now on, so prepare yourself.”

“Ah, I understand. that… Can I ask you one more time?”

“It doesn’t matter. I have to get used to it anyway.”

I braced my stomach and spoke in a dignified voice.

“Sacchaniel. I need your strength.”

“Yes, yes… .”

“No, you shouldn’t react that way.”

There is a long way to go.

Is it possible to do it in one day?

*

While Sacchaniel, or rather Ryuka, was spouting flames, I thought back to the scene where she appeared.

– Your blue dragon has answered your call.

The way he spoke was slightly awkward, his posture was somewhat awkward, and he looked like he was in pain due to the sculpture, but I was still satisfied with this.

I can see these details because I’ve seen them often, so it won’t feel strange to people like Cheshire who are seeing dragons for the first time.

‘It was worth practicing all day.’

I gave up halfway through and just told them to memorize it.

‘Oh, look at my mind.’

This is not the time to be like this.

I glanced at Cheshire next to me.

She was distracted by the burning flames.

Slowly move away from the warehouse.

Cheshire is still staring blankly at the flames.

‘good. ‘You don’t notice.’

I quickly walked away.

To prepare for the next act.
