Became a Hatchling of the Grand Duke of the North

42 – Imperial Maiden (1)

Huh oh oh-.

A vast plain with endless snow fields.

The one staring at it for a long time was a silver-white jewel-like being with scales.

[…]

Han the Guardian Dragon.

He was sitting on top of the castle of Archduchess Arctus.

The castle of the grand ducal family that rules the northern plains is really gigantic, as if it were reminiscent of the Harry Potter castle he had once seen.

Of course, the height was also dizzyingly high.

The place where Han climbed was the highest peak there.

When I lowered my head and looked down, the ground seemed faintly small.

The view from here was truly spectacular.

[Kirruru-.]

Han narrowed his eyes in satisfaction.

This was his favorite high seat.

When he climbed up here, a sense of security for some reason filled his inner self.

It felt like I became the owner of the world.

All the winged things in the world preferred the highest places.

Everything around him was completely within his eyes, and nothing escaped.

He gave a great sense of stability just by himself.

So maybe this is the nature of a dragon.

‘It was only relatively recently that I was able to stand up here. It only became possible after she broke out.’

I used to be weak.

It was just a frail hatchling, small and insignificant, and the muscles on the legs and body were not properly developed.

Moreover, it was all the more impossible for him to go out on his own as the maids restricted his every single action.

But now it wasn’t like that anymore.

Now he has grown up in his own way, and his body has grown as well as he has gone through a period of shedding.

The minimum ability to soar through this rough blue sky.

I had to finally put it in my own hands.

For a while, I’ve been enjoying the freedom here so contentedly.

Suddenly he spread his wings wide and opened his mouth to let out a shrill cry.

[Kiii!]

Kiyiyi-.

The cry of the young hatchling and guardian dragon resonated far and wide on the high wind.

Flash.

Suddenly, Han felt a strong flash.

As if it was directly touching his brain, he sensed something.

Han’s head turned to one side.

‘It’s over there.’

The presence has been felt.

To have a strong bond with him that is inseparable.

My heart started pounding as if it were being pulled by a strong force.

To blame!

Han could not stand it any longer and took action.

He fell from the top of the huge castle at once.

Then, he spread his folded wings wide, and in an instant, he gradually began to fly up in the wind.

The speed of his terrifyingly fast fall pushed his wide-open wings and helped him fly.

Whoop-!

His body floated up into the sky as if a strong gust of wind blew.

It was a flight.

I am free to fly.

Everything was according to his will.

Now I am no longer swept away by the winds of this harsh northern land as before.

A larger body, heavier body weight and wider wingspan. In addition, to the size of the attribute power that had to be further developed.

With the overall great development of all of that, his body has grown to the point where he can’t give in to the cold winds of the north.

Han flew along the vast wall of the castle at once, and finally climbed through the castle’s open window and entered the building.

[Ah, Guardian Dragon.]

It was none other than Lucia who welcomed Han’s appearance.

Her eyes met hers and he opened her mouth. His tail lifted up and showed his delight.

Besides, she wasn’t the only one here.

[You are here.]

The person who greeted him was none other than Grand Duke Lucrezia, she.

She greeted Han with a very faint incontinent smile.

‘Lucrecia is also with you.’

His two contractors. The saintess of the guardian dragon.

They were both together.

This is a very pleasant place.

[Ego. Come up.]

Sure.

Lucia naturally held out her arm to him as if to welcome him.

Seeing that, Han landed with both legs spread as if that place was his place.

On his wrist, as other birds of prey land on their masters.

Of course, a delicate landing was also necessary.

Anyway, Han was a creature with claws in his own way, and although he was still blunt, he stood up for a very few blades in his own way.

That’s why he stood on top of her white wrist with only a little bit of force.

[Grrr-.]

Han rubbed himself against his contractor as if expressing his satisfaction.

When I expressed my intimacy like this, a pleasant itch always came from within.

But it seems they weren’t the only ones here.

[Wow. Isn’t that the guardian dragon?]

[Kiik?]

At the sound of another human voice, Han finally recognized that another was here.

He quickly turns his head.

I saw a woman standing there wearing an antique gown.

‘What is it? Could there be anyone else?’

I didn’t know that at all.

Because until then, he was only looking at his contractors and was completely unaware of their existence.

As such, the guardian dragon’s cognitive abilities were sometimes narrow-minded.

Especially when he was close to his contractors.

The old-fashioned woman, who seemed to have grown up as a precious person, came closer before I knew it and was facing such resentment.

Her eyes twinkled with thick interest.

[Stir. Ho, would it be okay if I touch it once, Archduke?]

But Archduke Lucrezia shook his head.

[The Guardian Dragon probably won’t like it. He didn’t easily allow others.]

[Kiii-.]

As expected, Han was already showing signs of being wary.

Because the woman was showing her wings wide open as if she was on the alert as soon as she was afraid to ask such a question.

A hostile look even at first glance.

No one knew that it was an act of threat to not dare to approach him.

[That, it seems so. Ha ha ha…]

She smiled awkwardly.

Lucrezia, who was standing with her arms crossed, addressed her.

[Rather than that, Baroness Taylor. I want you to measure the size soon.]

[Ah! All right. You’re busy, but you took too much time. Sorry.]

She bowed her head and took her tape measure out of her arms.

Baroness Taylor?

Is this woman also from an aristocratic family?

Judging by the tape measure she pulled out, it seemed that she had come here to measure her clothes.

Lucia, who was holding Han in her arms, put him on a nearby chair.

[Ego. Guardian Dragon, please sit here for a while.]

[Kiii.]

When Han got away from her, he immediately showed a look of regret, but she didn’t whine.

Because he knew very well why she had separated himself.

Then the baroness, who was watching her, smiled.

[Your guardian dragon is really calm.]

[Because he is a high-ranking Holy Beast who is said to have far superior intellect than most humans. I’ve probably heard that most human languages are immediately understood and understood.]

[I see. Miss Lucia, please come over here. I have to measure first, so could you take off the coat you’re wearing?]

[Ah. All right.]

Lucia obediently obeyed the baroness.

She took off her thick northern overcoat that was on her back, and she smiled and then added another word.

[Ah, I’m sorry, but casual clothes too. That way, you can measure the detailed dimensions.]

[I see.]

At that sound, she immediately took off even her casual clothes.

Then,

[Kit!]

Shocked at once, Han immediately turned his head away.

He couldn’t help it either.

It was because Lucia had only her underwear on, and she had taken off everything else.

Baroness Taylor.

She stood with her mouth open in admiration.

[Wow. How is your skin so pale? That’s amazing. I can’t see any tea.]

Every time she took Lucia’s measurements, she kept exclaiming how amazing it was.

The girth of her bust, waist, hips, etc.

She was surprised at what was so strange that sometimes she tied Lucia’s wrist and touched it.

Then, she let out a deep sigh.

[Ha. I wish my daughter could come here too. Then she would have been good friends with the grand duke’s daughter.]

[Ah. Come to think of it.]

As if it was only then that he remembered something, Grand Duke Lucrezia asked the baroness.

[Didn’t you say that your daughter will be entering the academy this year? It was a long time ago, so I don’t remember the details, but I think it was.]

At that, the baroness smiled.

[As expected, you remembered it. It is an honour. Yes, this is like entering the school this time. It’s like she’s in the same grade as Lady Lucia.]

‘Academy?’

At that sound, Han set his ears up and began to listen carefully to their conversation.

For example, admission or grade.

There was something a little strange about the topic of conversation.
