Red Dragon Salion
“Did you come?”
“When did you arrive?”
Seeing Salion suddenly appear, Silvia expressed her displeasure.
She hadn't been invited, yet he was suddenly visiting Liria's house.
“My brothers called me to come play, right?”
“Tch.”
When Silvia clicked her tongue, Salion couldn't understand why she was angry at him.
His brothers had called him to visit, so Silvia had nothing more to say.
“Liria, where have you been?”
“You. Liria said she went to Earth, didn't you hear?”
“Ah, I did?”
Because he was immersed in the game, he didn't remember what Liria had said.
Even calling Salion to play 2v2 racing was shocking.
“Our daughter seems to have a serious game addiction. Should we confiscate the game console?”
“Liria is fine.”
“Liria is too kind-hearted. If it were me, I'd confiscate it immediately.”
Elia sighed, already tired of seeing her husband and sons obsessed with games.
Of course, she also found games fun because they were revolutionary, but not to that extent.
She could compromise to some degree, but her husband and sons seemed to live for games every day.
“Auntie, hello.”
“Yeah. It's Salion. Come in.”
Salion greeted Elia politely.
Seeing Silvia glaring at him from behind Elia, he wondered why she disliked him so much.
He remembered that Silvia didn't dislike him originally, but recently she had become more prickly.
“Silvia, why do you dislike me so much?”
“Not really?”
“Since when have you been cold to me only? The old Silvia wasn't like that.”
Salion couldn't understand why Silvia was cold to him.
He didn't remember exactly when, but it seemed like about ten years ago.
“If you hate me, just go back.”
“I don't hate you specifically, just stay.”
“If I did something wrong, tell me. I want to get along like before.”
Silvia didn't particularly dislike Salion.
She just didn't like how he was trying to get too close to Liria.
Salion thought he was a fine guy, and if Liria fell for him, she'd drift away from her.
To prevent that, he needed to block it first.
“You're trying too hard to get close to Liria.”
“Ah, that's why?”
Salion found Silvia's jealousy cute.
He had been guarding her because he thought she was trying to get close to Liria to distance herself from him.
Realizing she had been cold because she didn't want him to steal Liria, he felt bad.
“I like Liria as a little sister. Not in a romantic way.”
“I don't know.”
“Liria is still too young. I think she's too young for romance.”
Of course, if Liria grew up, she might like his taste, but right now she just seemed like a little sister.
Moreover, it was obvious Silvia liked Liria too much, so he couldn't confess.
Also, from his perspective, Liria didn't seem interested in men at all.
Salion saw Liria always looking at Silvia.
If he confessed and got rejected, he'd have trouble seeing Liria again.
Plus, he couldn't ignore the gazes of other hatchlings.
It wouldn't make sense to date a Liria who looked so young.
Silvia's atmosphere changed a lot before and after meeting Liria.
Seeing the usually blunt Silvia soften in front of Liria, Salion and other hatchlings were surprised.
It was as if she had a rich emotional side, and she smiled a lot in front of Liria.
It was clear how much she liked Liria.
“Yeah. I'm sorry.”
“No. I made it confusing, I'm sorry.”
“Don't say weird things later.”
“Got it.”
Silvia thought Salion was a wild guy, but she realized he had a gentle side.
If he wasn't interested in Liria romantically, there was no need to guard her.
But if his words changed later, she would punish him accordingly.
On the other hand, Liria, seeing Silvia worry unnecessarily, smiled unconsciously.
She had memories from her previous life, so she had no interest in men.
“By the way, there are such amazing magic tools on Earth?”
“Yeah. Earth is a place where science has developed enormously.”
“Earth has delicious food and so many fun things. It's really amazing that Liria is amazing.”
Salion thought he might have misheard when he heard Liria had space-transferred to a new planet.
Other hatchlings and dragon elders had the same reaction.
Moreover, the processed foods from Earth were revolutionary.
Especially instant cup ramen that could be eaten immediately by adding hot water was delicious and convenient.
Of course, there were foods that required cooking tools only available on Earth, but even considering that, they were excellent foods.
Salion felt anew how generous and precious Liria was for sharing these with them first.
Liria's trip to Earth was more than just discovering coffee; it was a revolution.
“You know how much the elders like it. How much fun and stimulation will Earth's civilization bring?”
“That's why business on Earth is important.”
“Earth is safe, right? Even if there are no mages.”
“I'm here, so no problem.”
Silvia's presence made him trust, but there was always a 'just in case'.
Even the elders saw how much Liria was favored by dragons.
Seeing them treat her like their real granddaughter, it seemed they liked her more than the hatchlings.
Salion thought it was natural for the elders to like Liria.
The hatchlings liked her too, so how much more would the elders?
Liria had gained one more granddaughter from the elders.
“Thank you for worrying. Salion oppa.”
“Of course. You're our little sister.”
Liria felt gratitude towards Salion for worrying about her.
She knew how precious she was to the dragons, not just Salion.
That's why when she first arrived on Earth, she thought about taking care of her family and dragons.
“By the way, why is Iris over there?”
Salion saw Silvia say this, pointing to Iris trembling in the far corner.
Iris, scared by Salion, had been hiding and sulking.
“I don't know.”
“It's not like that, right?”
“No.”
Salion was extremely upset.
His brothers called him to play games, but he didn't know what game, but thought it would be fun, so he came.
When he first saw Iris, he thought 'why is a beast here?' but when he learned it was Liria's pet, he nodded.
Upon closer look, it was a cute fox cub.
He heard that Liria had started adventuring, and that she brought the cub because she lost her mother.
Silvia understood the situation at a glance.
“I get it roughly. It's because of you.”
“No, I didn't do anything.”
“You're scary to her, right? I was scared of Iris at first too.”
Silvia could understand Salion's upset feeling.
When Iris first saw her, she was terrified, and injecting mana could improve the situation.
Liria picked up Iris, and Iris felt safe in Liria's arms.
Liria stroked Iris who was crying at her, saying,
“Iris, you don't have to be scared anymore.”
“Kang.”
Even thinking of her owner, Iris vowed not to fear dragons anymore.
Considering Liria's closeness with dragons, she thought no dragon would harm her.
Liria decided to advise her family who seemed addicted to games.
“From today, we'll set game time.”
“Yeah. It's good to set it clearly.”
“If you break the promise, I'll confiscate the game console.”
“Got it.”
“Yeah.”
“Yeah.”
Because Liria was the absolute ruler, Renos and his brothers had no choice but to agree.
“Today is a day when everyone is at home, so play as much as you want.”
“As expected, Liria.”
“Thank you, Liria.”
“Thank you, Liria.”
Liria didn't want to control game time until the weekend, so she decided to play after dinner on weekdays.
Everyone seemed to agree, and Liria decided to introduce a new game.
Liria took out the newly purchased game console from her inventory, and the family admired the expanded game console.
Liria connected the game console and external hard drive, and this time she decided to enjoy it herself.
