How To Tame an Academy Dragon

8. Iljin Dragon in the Back Alley

Doha After the strange encounter with the Prius, I fell asleep from exhaustion and found out a surprising fact the next day.

It was seven days after I fell asleep that I woke up right after I entered her dream (according to the Doha Prius) and was kicked out.

I wondered if I really passed out from the recoil of being kicked out after crawling into the dragon’s unconscious, but alas, no one was there to solve my troubles.

Since I took 7 days off for free, of course there was a problem with the expiration date of the food, and I had to throw away all the food while shedding bloody tears.

It is said that during the seven days that I passed out, the people of Sellus Company came and went several times.

The next day after I woke up, a person from Sellus Company came to the store and informed me that Sellus was even thinking about whether to report me missing because of me who had suddenly disappeared.

Fortunately, before Sellus started working, he went to the store together to clear up misunderstandings, and he moderately said that he was ill and took a break.

Sellus said he came at the right time and showed the prototypes.

Number 1 product name neck pillow.

Originally, plastic pellets or some kind of strange sponge were put inside, but there was no way that such a substance could exist here.

In the end, in a compromise with reality, the inside was stuffed with less durable cotton, and the first prototype made that way.

Because it was made of cloth, it rustled more than I knew and didn’t feel very nice to the touch.

However, in Sellus’ position, it was the first newspaper experience he had ever experienced, and he told me that he was already using it during work.

“It’s amazing, it’s amazing! Aside from the advantage of being able to sleep at any time, there is no such thing as a break like this for those who sit and read documents for a long time!”

“Oh yes…”

Sellus, wearing a neck pillow, was leaning on the sofa in a worldly pose.

“But after using it a few times, the cotton quickly went out and it wasn’t good. I need to change it to something stronger and more durable.”

“Surely so.”

Sellus showed me his neck pillow, which he had used for about four days. As he said, the middle had already sunk, and it had lost its function to be soft.

“By the way. Are there any positive effects from selling these things to students?”

Can be positive. It’s good if you don’t sleep during class.

“Move on to the next product.”

Before Sellus thought more deeply about the negative effects of a neck pillow, he quickly changed the subject.

The next product is a dongle.

The original name is not Roundy, but it is an old name and I do not know the real name, so it is an appropriate name.

As for what to use…

“Come in!”

With the call of Sellus, a female secretary belonging to a merchant appeared.

It was typical of the Renaissance era, wearing plain clothes and brown leather shoes underneath.

The female secretary greeted Sellus and me with a slight bow, and something pink curled up on her forehead, along with her bangs.

“Let’s go to bed. Let’s solve it now.”

“Yes.”

As soon as I came to the store earlier, Sellus sent a signal to her secretary to get ready.

The female secretary gently untied the dried round hair from her bangs and put the pink round hair on the table.

Then, after brushing off his bangs, he showed us his face again.

“Oh.”

“Whoa.”

No matter who said it first, exclamations were shed at the same time.

With the bangs full of volume, it felt prettier and more suitable.

The secretary had her shoulder-length hair tied back, and the light fall of her bangs made her already outstanding beauty shine even more.

The person concerned was showing a very faint smile at our reaction, as if he knew from how many times he had already used it.

“I knew about the beauty of the curves… But making it this way makes it stand out even more! It’s good to go.”

“Thank you.”

After bowing to Sellus’ praise, the female secretary took a wooden roundie and went outside.

Originally, the bangs had to be fixed simply because they had velcro.

But I didn’t have the technical skills, so I put hairpins together, and the bangs were fixed with very thin hairpins, then rolled up.

“Where the hell did you come up with such a novel idea! It’s neither grandiose nor difficult… But isn’t this a true step forward in beauty culture!”

Who is leading the flow of the economy?

Since ancient times, it has been female consumers who lead trends and bring vitality to the economy based on them.

Sellus, who knows that well, applauded and admired the innovative cosmetic product called Dongle.

“You don’t have to comb hard. You can curl it up for a while and then loosen it! If you’re busy, you can do it in the wagon!”

“hahahahaha. That’s right.”

Don’t worry, Mr. Sellus. If you become fashionable in earnest, you will find it on the streets, not carriages.

For some reason, I felt guilty at the thought that the K-poison would spread throughout the imperial capital in an instant.

I think of academy girls going to school with round bangs on their bangs.

Sellus did an excellent job of reproducing the two products.

The material was slightly changed due to the lack of plastic, but there was no problem with the original function.

The only difference was that either way, it was expensive enough in this era.

“I don’t know if I can use this expression…”

He fidgeted with both hands on the neck pillow hanging around his neck and gave a very sour smile.

“It feels good.”

“…”

After the meeting with Sellus, she turned down his offer of a carriage and came out.

She

Because while she was walking, she was thinking of going in and looking at the chapter.

As soon as I entered the market, my ears ached from the loud solicitation.

A street crowded with people without even a chance to set foot.

A long time after the end of the war, the Empire entered the most luxurious era it has ever enjoyed.

The livestock industry has developed to the extent that meat side dishes, which commoners could not even dream of, go up once a day.

The quality of clothing, which had been crawling on the floor due to the lack of raw materials, has also improved remarkably.

The fabric worn by the nobility came down to the common people, and the aristocrats enjoyed a luxurious life with more fabric than that.

“Miracle on the Ruby Woo River. Anyway, the naming sense is all the same.”

I probably called you by that name in my previous life.

Buy dinner while reminiscing about old memories.

There is no refrigerator, so if you buy a lot, you have to rot it and throw it away, so it’s good enough to eat tomorrow in moderation.

“Oh show again!”

I put the chicken I bought today into my shopping cart, leaving the butcher’s lively greetings behind.

I was excited at the thought of eating meat side dishes for the first time in a while.

On the way home humming songs. After getting out of the downtown area and entering a quiet alleyway, I focused on the loud sound coming from somewhere.

I stopped and listened and looked around, and it seemed to be coming from an obscure alley where people don’t often walk.

“Let’s stop worrying.”

At first glance, it smells like a bad route, but do I have to go there?

Even if I pretend not to know anything, it won’t affect my life. Of course my life.

Radical development always comes back as a double-edged sword. There may be a bustling market and a higher level of food, clothing, and shelter, just like before.

There were also rumors that drugs were being distributed or that illegal organizations had begun to dominate the commercial district.

Earlier this year, the emperor’s edict declared a war on crime, so it didn’t seem like an issue that would be easily overlooked.

“Get out of the way!!”

The moment I decided to go home without doing anything stupid. The sound of someone gasping could be heard from behind.

The voice was too vivid to be mistaken, so I quickly turned around.

When I noticed something furiously running towards me, it was already right in front of my nose.

I quickly turned my body to the left to avoid it, but unfortunately, I moved to the right as if it was intended to avoid me, and we collided as our legs matched.

“Kuuk!”

“Ouch!”

Cudangtang!

The pain of running out of air from your lungs. I rolled on the floor in an ugly way with the shock of blackening my eyes.

Rolling around on the dirt floor, I coughed and barely opened my eyes to find a chicken covered in dirt lying in front of me.

Then, the pain I felt all over my body completely disappeared, and irritation and anger over the fact that the dinner side dishes were gone started to dominate my body.

I got up with the intention of arguing, and I approached the attacker who was still fidgeting on the floor.

“Ah-san… It hurts so f*cking much. No mister! What are we going to do with this!”

If it is not a serious matter that can be extenuated, I will definitely accept the price of the chicken.

I shouted with full annoyance at him rolling around at my feet, resolutely determined to do so.

The man also turned his head to look at me, perhaps awakened by my voice. There was something red on the face of the man who was glaring at me with bloody eyes.

‘Blood?’

It was hard to believe that it was the blood shed from an injury caused by the fall. And another popular chuckle followed.

Instinctively, at the same time as I took a step back, the man stood up in an instant, grabbed my wrist, bent it backwards, and hid behind me as if using me as a shield.

As a bonus, I rolled my eyes to see the cool, hard dagger felt at the nape of my neck and swallowed.

While I was distracted, the man yelled loudly in the direction he was running.

“If you come closer, you will die!”

The sound of footsteps stopped exactly at the same time as that cry.

I raised my head to the front and soon spotted someone else who I thought was after the man.

The person wearing the black cloak was wearing a white mask on his face as if that wasn’t enough.

The pursuer stared at the man for a moment, then put his hand on his waist and let out a deep sigh.

And then he opened the door with a calm tone as if he was going to die of annoyance.

“Hey. Don’t get sick and come here.”

A man? Female?

I couldn’t tell because he was wearing a mask and a cloak, and the costume was too tight to cover his body.

Even his voice was magically altered so it sounded like a mechanical sound. However, it seemed that the user’s personality that came out of the tone could not be covered.

“If it was in the past, you would have fallen behind a long time ago. Don’t be rash and just come to work.”

You can feel the scent of a familiar movie star in lines and actions.

Who was it… I think he was very big…

A dagger is attached to the nape of his neck and he is in the midst of being overpowered, but strangely, as he hears the pursuer’s friendly threat, the tension begins to relax.

“Chit!”

“Oops!”

The man seemed to realize that taking hostages was useless, and pushed me forward vigorously.

As I staggered down toward my pursuer, I heard a slight metal scraping sound behind me.

The pursuer didn’t make the humanitarian choice of catching me, but took a light step and evaded to the side.

Shhh!

The moment the pursuer moved to the right and evaded me. I heard the sound of the wind cutting through the sides of my head and flying quickly.

Puck!

At the same time I fell back on the dirt floor with my feet twisted, I heard a dull impact from the pursuer’s side.

Still, this time I was aware of the fall situation, so I stretched out my hand and fell safely to the floor and found something falling in front of me.

A silver saliva, thicker and longer than chopsticks, was stuck into the white mask’s left cheek, and it must have been quite strong.

I immediately turned around and saw my pursuer lowered with his hand on his face.

As a bonus, even the sound of footsteps moving away quickly.

The pursuer, who was covering his face with his hand, made a clicking noise and made eye contact with me..

“Uh…”

He has white skin and dark blue eyes. A furrowed brow full of annoyance. Even the bangs that flowed down due to the intense movement.

I couldn’t see the lower part because it was covered, but I could tell who the pursuer was in front of me with just that level of features. It was difficult to recognize because of his unique appearance.

The pursuer also gave up covering his face with his hands and began to descend slowly, probably noticing that his identity had been revealed.

Her face finally fully exposed, she tilted her head towards me and twisted the corner of her mouth up.

“You saw it?”

She smiles ferociously like a devil from hell.

It was the Doha Prius.
