Chapter Index

    Silver side of Cabrini Green.

    A group of cargo flying cars departed from there and headed toward Grove Avenue in Auckland.

    Come to think of it, only three days have passed since Lund mentioned the move.

    We were able to complete all preparations for moving by moving as quickly as possible.

    Sylvia went to Jenny and Johnny went to Badek to say goodbye.

    If there is a chance, we may meet again. But considering the distance between Silver Side and Grove Avenue… I wouldn’t say that was very likely.

    Ray and I happened to be riding in the cargo flying car that was located second from the front.

    Originally, I was planning to ride with Sylvia and Lund. But Sylvia made a meaningful expression.

    He then gave up his seat to Ray and took him to Lund.

    “Sila, eat slowly.”

    Of course, it wasn’t General Scylla who would leave me and Ray alone.

    “Wait a minute, Ray. What are you giving to Sheila?”

    Reptile tail…?

    Ray answered not much different from what I expected. It’s a crocodile’s tail.

    “No, I understand that, but where on earth did you get the crocodile tail…”

    “This?”

    Another alligator tail appeared in Ray’s hand.

    ” Deokbae gave it to me.”

    “…Ah.”

    Someone said Deokbae. He was clearly an orc who got a star-shaped scar in the shining sea.

    Now, we know who gave it to Ray, but the question remains as to why he gave it to Ray.

    “…They gave it to me to eat!”

    Silas, who was biting the crocodile tail that Ray had thrown her, answered.

    The crocodile’s tail looked as if it had been cut at regular intervals rather than the entire long tail.

    “Sila, is that delicious?”

    “….”

    No answer came back.

    Scylla was frantically poking her head toward the soft cross section of the crocodile’s tail.

    “You eat well with that small mouth.”

    “General, do you want to eat too?”

    I wondered how many crocodile tails were given to him.

    Of course, the general did not refuse Ray’s favor.

    It was very funny to see Sila and Janggun grabbing different crocodile tails and eating them frantically.

    And where the four of us were was precisely the back seat of the cargo flying car.

    The driver didn’t seem to care much about what we were doing in the backseat.

    Their job is to move designated items to designated locations. That was all.

    Ugh.

    Ray, who was next to me, suddenly grabbed my hand.

    Familiar hands, unfamiliar actions.

    My face turned red without me realizing it as my hands were naturally placed together.

    “….”

    “Chris?”

    no! Ray is fine, but why is my face turning red?

    The right hand, which was absolutely ferocious, came in handy at times like this. Its rough shape was perfect for covering my entire face.

    ***

    “Grrr!”

    Meanwhile, Silas’ face was scrunched up.

    It wasn’t because of Ray, it was because of the alligator’s tail.

    Is it because it’s real meat, not synthetic meat?

    The sight of Scylla happily tasting the crocodile tail seemed to draw Ray’s attention there as well.

    But it was a temporary phenomenon.

    Pod already inserted.

    Meanwhile, Ray started moving his fingers first.

    “….”

    Ray’s actions were very bold.

    Yet his expression looked very calm. He is expressing his favor to me in a calm and nonchalant way.

    ‘I think I’ve become more active since becoming a member…’

    He actively took action when asked to persuade Ilseong… No, this was something that even Ray before becoming a vassal would have seen.

    Anyway, I remained on the defensive as Ray continued to attack.

    No, it had to be that way.

    For me to be the first to flirt with Ray… that’s a bit much!

    At times like this, the masculinity that I used to talk about can no longer be mentioned.

    Since when did my relationship with Ray turn upside down?

    ‘I’m sure I’m the owner and Ray is the subordinate…’

    I felt like I couldn’t find the right answer. Nevertheless, I wanted to find an answer.

    …Suddenly Ray’s movements stopped.

    ‘Whew…’

    I was relieved inside.

    That’s right, Ray doesn’t intend to progress any further than this…

    Suddenly Ray’s head rested on my shoulder.

    “….”

    ‘Aaaah!’

    You pretend to reassure me and then attack me in time!

    As expected, it was a strategy and tactic worthy of my teacher.

    “ugh….”

    What options can I take in this situation?

    That’s right!

    Pow-

    Transforming into the form of a baby bat.

    Immediately after turning into a bat, it climbed onto Ray’s head.

    “Ray! This is a bit sudden!”

    I felt like I was becoming more honest than when I was my real self. I immediately told Ray about my feelings.

    “Why? I’m fine.”

    “Yeah… I guess so!”

    An answer that seems obvious. Comfortable and soft voice.

    I feel like my mind is calming down as well.

    “But still…there is such a thing as mental preparation, right?”

    Ray suddenly started laughing.

    He wasn’t laughing at my shy reaction. I felt like he just laughed when he heard my answer.

    “…Huh?!”

    Then it suddenly took the form of a baby bat.

    Oh my! Even Ray could transform!

    Two baby bats that look very similar.

    We held hands again on a seat that was too big for two.

    No, in this case, since it looks like a bat, should it be called wings?

    It felt strange to have Ray’s wings folded over mine.

    It was like that in his original form earlier, but in this form, there would be no need to say anything.

    ***

    licking.

    Before we knew it, Sila, who had finished eating the crocodile’s tail, leaving only the outer skin and bones, was looking at us.

    “Ik!”

    A cute sound that can only be heard from baby cats.

    Silas made a noise and jumped onto the seat.

    “Ugh!”

    Ray and I let go of our wings to avoid Scylla.

    “….”

    Only then did Silas begin baking bread on the seat.

    The expression on his face was one of great satisfaction. It looked like a Buddha.

    “Sila, didn’t you eat too dirty?”

    “It was delicious!”

    That wasn’t the answer to my question.

    The answer that alligator tail is delicious was not the answer I wanted.

    As I, in my bat form, swept around Scylla’s mouth, Ray just watched.

    ‘I’m feeling uneasy about something.’

    Meanwhile, Janggun was still slowly savoring his share of the crocodile tail.

    As I watched the digestive juice being injected into the crocodile’s tail, I felt a chill in my stomach.

    “Sila, stay still.”

    “Yes!”

    Even before eating the crocodile tail, Silas was plump. The fur was moderately fluffy and just perfect.

    “Chris?!”

    Because it can be used like a living bed.

    I laid down on Scylla’s waist in the form of a small baby bat.

    Then Ray lay down right next to me.

    Although it was being used as a bed for two baby bats, Scylla seemed unharmed.

    A little while ago, I and Ray were separated.

    “I’m feeling a little sleepy while doing this.”

    “Wouldn’t it be okay to sleep?”

    It will be a while until the cargo flying car arrives at Grove Avenue.

    Like Ray said, it would be good to get some sleep.

    “Chris.”

    “Huh?”

    But Ray called me.

    When I looked up to see what was going on, I saw that Ray’s eyes were facing the sky next to the window.

    The cargo flying car is currently flying above the clouds.

    That sound… could be at the same altitude as the Sky Whale.

    Before my eyes, I saw a group of sky whales heading somewhere.

    Light blue and purple, the light reflecting off that smooth skin sometimes looked like a rainbow.

    Sky whales were just like us.

    My body was moving busily toward a clearly defined destination.

    “…What, is it really coming towards us?”

    “Well?”

    But a curious-looking sky whale was approaching this way.

    ***

    Looking at its small size, it looked like it was still a baby. A naive behavior that can be seen because people don’t yet know how scary people can be.

    Sure enough, the sound coming from the radio was nothing short of bloody.

    The cargo flying car fleet began responding to the unexpected action.

    The innocent sky whale will be shot down in an instant with powerful firepower.

    Originally, these cargo flying car fleets must be heavily armed to respond to sky whales and other threats from the air.

    With that firepower, it would be easy to turn that child into a sky whale.

    “Ray, what should we do?”

    “Killing seems like a bit much.”

    I asked Ray just in case. My thoughts were the same as Ray’s.

    I wondered if we really needed to touch that child first.

    “Do we need to touch it first?”

    Fortunately, before Ray and I could share our opinions, Sylvia’s voice was heard.

    “Just in case you don’t know.”

    “It is difficult to respond at close range. If he keeps coming this way, we have to deal with him.”

    “Wait a minute. What are you going to do if you touch it for no reason and other guys come rushing in?”

    Following Sylvia, a voice filled with years of experience was heard.

    It was Johnny.

    Afterwards, the disagreement between the drivers and our Blue Heart Office continued.

    “How about doing this?”

    “….”

    In that situation, a relaxed voice intervened.

    It was Ilseong, the head of the Ildong office.

    “If anything happens, I will deal with the Sky Whale right away.”

    At the same time, the cargo flying car carrying Ilseong and Deokbae moved in the direction where the whale was approaching.

    “…Is that possible?”

    “Of course. And you can just give them a little scolding and chase them away.”

    He was probably thinking of using Hromund’s sword. It seemed like Ilseong would do anything.

    Whether we know our hearts or not.

    The baby sky whale gradually approached us.

    “…Isn’t it dangerous?”

    “I think it’s close. I think Ilsung will respond if he comes in a little more.”

    It was a completely unexpected meeting.

    Who would have expected that on the day of moving, we would receive a warm welcome from the Sky Whale.

    Before I knew it, Ray and I were on Scylla’s back, looking out the window.

    “….”

    This time, the two wings naturally overlapped.

    ‘Er, I don’t know either.’

    This time, I held Ray’s wings tightly.

    I felt the strength of each other’s wings holding each other’s wings together.

    Meanwhile, the sky whale seemed to be coming this way and suddenly responded to the cries of a larger sky whale that appeared from behind.

    “Is that guy’s mom?”

    No, it could be my dad. What was important was not the gender of the sky whale.

    It is said that the baby sky whale began to rush back when it heard its parent sky whale calling for it.

    “Whew… I still avoided a dangerous situation.”

    “Sure. Thank goodness.”

    The worst could have been avoided.

    As the momentary tension was relieved, uncontrollable drowsiness came over me.

    ….

    When I open my eyes again.

    The cargo flying car I was riding arrived at Grove Avenue.

    Looking around through the window, I noticed that some cargo flying cars were not in perfect condition.

    “What, did something happen?!”

    I immediately confirmed this over the radio.

    Then Ray, who had not yet opened his eyes, turned over.

    “Silvia, did something happen while I was sleeping?”

    “It was strange that there was nothing said during all the chaos. Looks like he was sleeping after all.”

    According to Sylvia, it looked like it had been attacked by another group of violent sky whales.

    It was said that they were somehow driven out with the firepower of the fleet.

    “Humans and whales are the same.”

    There are so many different types.

    After answering that, I rolled my eyes back and forth.

    Auckland is the place to start your new life as a problem solver! Grove Avenue!

    Please take care!
