Chapter 213
213 – Isn’t This Too Obvious?!
ㅡTiring!
[Random stat given to Gourmet’s Feeding – ‘Level Increase’ is activated.]
[The level increases after the target sleeps… ]
ㅡToduk… !
At the same time, Derke’s letter slips from my hands. I was started by the sudden alarm sound and system message.
“Nyorolong… !」
Before the letter falls on the floor,
Black Dragon manages to get this.
Nice rebound.
I almost dropped Derke’s precious handwritten letter.
By the way, Derke’s usual speaking style was accurately conveyed in this letter.
It was probably written using an ancient idiom.
I simply read the letters with my eyes,
His lively and excited voice rang in my head.
‘No wonder… ‘ … I thought it was a gift out of the blue, but I never thought there was a reason for it.’
The system message was also a message,
I was more concerned about Derke’s letter.
After reading his handwritten letter,
I understand the unexpected gift of chocolate.
The letter said that tomorrow was ‘Lovers’ Day’ and that he had prepared a gift for me. Apparently, customs such as Valentine’s Day and White Day also existed on the Drango continent.
Actually, pretty girl gacha games used to hold events under the pretext of such anniversaries. Perhaps that setting is also incorporated into this worldview.
I think I heard something similar during the day.
Seirin also talks about ‘special days’,
They gave me a quest that lasted until tomorrow.
I feel like I understand everything now. Perhaps he intentionally wanted to treat me to special food on Lover’s Day.
“I guess it’s a dragon with high pride… “Are you saying that even if I die soon, I won’t be able to confess first?”
Well, that aside…
[Level increase occurs after the target falls asleep.]
[Expected level up value: Lv.201 → Lv.251]
What is this system message all of a sudden?
Does this mean that you have to wake up to level up?
And this is why Derke fell asleep?
ㅡSSseu… !
I erased the transparent window and looked down.
“… Kooooo”
A faint nasal sound is heard.
Derke was still sleeping standing up.
While hugging my waist tightly.
I was in a state of sleep, but Derke didn’t let me go.
Derke probably didn’t know that he would fall asleep so suddenly.
“Foot…”
It was a meaningless ending considering we had prepared such a meaningful surprise event.
No matter how young the hatchling is,
How dare you fall asleep at such an important moment?
It was a part that was not easy to understand.
Derke was still immature in many ways, but when it came to matters related to me, he was more sincere than anyone else, so I never thought he would fall asleep in an instant. It’s not some kind of narcolepsy…
“Is it because of that?”
I muttered, looking at the wooden skewer with a little dough left on it. It seemed like the influence of a hot dog with additional abilities.
As the ability was activated, the person was forced into a state of sleep.
‘And because of that, my heart…’
Wow, this isn’t some kind of fairy tale.
Do your breasts get bigger as you level up?
So, if I kept feeding him hot dogs… ?
ㅡTogether…
“Oh, that can’t be possible… ” …”
When I think of Derke with a big chest, I can’t help but shake my head.
I’m leveling up, but will they just make my breasts bigger?
When you wake up, you will grow overall.
Anyway, it wasn’t a good idea to grant Derke’s wish today after falling completely asleep like this.
ㅡCool cool cool…
Because I didn’t really want to wake Derke.
I fell into a deeper sleep than I thought.
It’s not even a night shift, so it’s rude to wake him up in the middle of the night shift.
Besides, no matter how old you are… No, even though he is a 251-year-old dragon, for some reason his conscience did not allow him to embrace the current Derke.
‘Later, when Derke’s mind is intact… Let’s think again then.’
ㅡSplat!
I gently lifted Derke.
To quickly take you to the dormitory.
It seemed like he needed enough sleep.
‘Come to think of it, when I first met Derke, I hugged him like this and took him to the dormitory, right?’
Even back then, I was so sleepy that I used to doze off.
Clinging tightly to my arms.
I kept looking for my dad, talking in my sleep.
But was Derke this light?
Maybe I have changed that much?
Anyway, I have a new feeling…
I roughly picked Derke up, carried her on my back, and carefully packed the gifts and letters.
“I have to go back quickly now. Would you guys like to stay and clean up after us?”
『Nyoronglong… !』
I leave it to the ghosts to clean up after me,
I slightly opened the lounge door and looked outside.
The security department could have been patrolling outside.
“Okay, there’s no one there.”
It was still quiet outside.
There is only pitch-black darkness.
I didn’t feel any pretense of popularity.
“Aww… Abwooooo…”
Except for Derke, who is drooling like a newborn.
Still, it wasn’t a big problem.
Because it wasn’t that far to the dormitory.
If you sneak down and run, it will be quick.
By the way…
ㅡKkuguguk… !
‘The level up effect is really good. ‘You keep touching my back from now on, right?’
I wasn’t mistaken earlier.
Something heavier than I thought puts pressure on me.
I feel something warm on my back.
This dizzying sensation whips my feet into moving faster.
ㅡChulkkeun… !
“Hehe, we’ve finally arrived.”
After safely arriving at the dormitory, I slowly opened the side door and looked around the first floor hallway.
As expected, it is now almost shift time. Other than Tina, who had kissed her in advance, another worker might be on guard.
‘Thank god. ‘Tina is still on duty, right?’
A small human figure can be seen at the end of the hallway.
A hatchling with shining red eyes.
Just then, he turns his head towards the side door we entered.
It looks like we arrived at the dormitory just on time.
ㅡTurp, trudge… !
Tina spots us and slowly approaches us.
*
Quiet bedtime when everyone is in bed.
I stayed alone in the quiet hallway.
He was on alert to prepare for nighttime emergencies.
‘My classmates said they kept hearing strange breathing noises coming from the night shift room yesterday, but as expected, it’s quiet today. What happened to the teacher yesterday? He’s human, but he’s an adult, so it’s impossible for him to do things like that with his senior… ?’
I worked alone and pondered useless thoughts. If I didn’t do this, time would pass so slowly that it would be unbearable.
Night shift work was quite boring.
Because I had to guard the first floor hallway alone.
Still, I was quite lucky at work today.
Because I was put in charge of the first watch.
Being on alert and being on alert is a blessed work order.
There was no need to wake up in the middle of the night.
Waking up mid-sleep is a huge ordeal.
There will never be anything more painful than this.
“Haaa…”
“Puhaa…”
But I couldn’t help but sigh throughout this blessed workday.
‘When on earth are you coming back? … ? It was Derke’s request, so I reluctantly accepted it… I thought nothing bad would happen since I was with the breeder…’
Shift time coming soon.
Two people who went out without permission never returned.
Because of this, I had no choice but to feel anxious.
Could it be that he secretly ran away from love?
What if he really doesn’t come back?
Should I report it to the main office right away?
Or should I first tell my seniors according to the reporting system…
ㅡSlap!
“Oh?”
As I was wandering around the hallway restlessly, the side door at the end of the hallway opened. The entrance is open for night workers.
‘You’ve finally arrived… !’
Eventually, a gray-colored man entered inside. This is the breeder I have been waiting for so long.
ㅡTurp, trudge… !
After a month, I ran towards the teacher.
Because I was worried that something had happened.
As expected, his return came much later than he expected.
“… Teacher? Why are you so late?! “You were worried!”
“Whoa, I’m sorry, Miss Tina. I had some work to do…”
The teacher let out a sigh as soon as he saw me.
Wiping off cold sweat in the cool of the night.
It looks like something difficult has happened.
“Anyway, where is Derke…” ” ” …”
“Do not worry. Because Derke is asleep now.”
ㅡUgh!
With those words, the breeder glances back.
“Oh? “Derke?”
“Kool, obbaa…” ” ♡ Hee hee, my dad is so crazy…”
Derke is sleeping on the teacher’s back. He must have been so tired that he even started talking in his sleep.
Boo, I’m jealous!
Honestly, I’m jealous!
I also want to get in close contact with the breeder… !
‘Anyway, what did you two do back in the middle of the night?’
ㅡSrurruk… !
The breeder carefully held Derke forward and walked towards me.
“Miss Tina? “I’m really sorry, but could you please lie down on Derke for me?”
“Yes?”
“No matter how Derke you are, I think it’s rude to go into the room you share with Tina.”
A teacher who puts Derke down to my level.
“Kooooo…”
Derke was still asleep, unaware of the world. An expression that looks somewhat ecstatic rather than happy.
“Ahh… ?!”
When I looked closely, I saw that Derke’s school uniform shirt was completely unbuttoned. The brooch on the neck was also loose.
Why are my clothes loose?
Could it be that the teacher called Derke… ?
Did you do something like that secretly outside?!
‘As expected, what I heard from my classmates yesterday while working was not a lie… ?’
Isn’t this too obvious?!
And how intense was it for Derke to lose consciousness and fall asleep like that?
