Chapter 114
"How can a man who's been imprisoned have... so many children?!"
After lunch, Leon and Losweiser began their afternoon date.
They went to the indoor zoo and fed some adorable animals up close.
Just like humans, Dragon Race consider all furry little creatures that lack sentience to be "cute," unless they are extremely ugly.
But Losweiser wouldn't describe them as "cute and charming".
Because in the Dragon Race's concept, "cute" is a derogatory term.
Throughout the visit to the zoo, Leon tried to get her to say the word "cute".
Losweiser was thoroughly annoyed and finally got a little red-faced, so she blurted out, "Casmod, you're just so adorable."
After the zoo, they went to a clay sculpture workshop.
Losweiser created a chibi version of Leon.
Leon then created Losweiser's Dragon form.
After finishing the work, the couple looked at each other with beaming smiles, their eyes seemingly filled with love.
The clay sculptor was about to praise their skillful hands.
But the boss swallowed back his praise after they snapped the neck off the clay sculpture in their hands.
"The couple's relationship... isn't very harmonious," the shopkeeper sighed, then added, "Even if you break it, you'll still have to pay the original price."
As evening fell, they left Sky City and headed to the final stop of their date:
Seaside.
It wasn't far from Sky City; after flying down from there, it took less than twenty minutes to arrive.
The areas near Sky City are free from war, conflict, and racial strife.
Most of the people who come here to relax are Buddhist-style retired Dragon Race who are tired of fighting.
It's also a great option as the last stop on a date.
The couple sat on a bench by the beach, with various clothing bags beside them.
They gazed at the beach not far away, where the setting sun cast its golden rays upon the sand.
Several baby dragons were building sandcastles barefoot, while adults strolled and chatted nearby.
Occasionally, seagulls would fly over Leon and Losweiser, accompanied by a slightly salty and cool sea breeze, making it a pleasant and comfortable experience.
Leon slowly let out a sigh of relief, slightly lowered his body, and leaned back on the bench in a half-sofa-slouch position.
Director Noa didn't have many requirements for them; he just wanted them to be relaxed and natural.
So, this is probably the most relaxing moment.
"Let's talk about something, we can't just stay here until evening," Losweiser said.
What do you want to talk about?
"Let's talk about—" Losweiser smoothed a strand of hair at her temple, "The female classmate you dreamed about."
Leon rolled his eyes at her speechlessly. "I declare that the Only One female creature I've ever been in a relationship with is you!"
"Whispering sound--!"
"Wait, I think I understand..."
Leon sat up straight, as if he had realized something.
Losweiser glanced at him sideways. "What?"
Leon narrowed his eyes, scrutinizing her, and said quietly, "Oh dear, someone seems to be a little too concerned. You wouldn't be... jealous—hmm!..."
Losweiser reached out and covered his mouth.
"Actually, you said something even more shocking that night. Do you want to hear it?"
"Hmm?"
Losweiser chuckled, withdrew her hand, and stood up. "Guess."
The cards had to be played slowly; Losweiser wasn't in a hurry at all. Three
She put her hands in the pockets of her matching shirt and walked towards the beach.
Her silver high ponytail swayed back and forth, giving her a lively and energetic look.
Leon wanted to catch up and get to the bottom of it.
Looking left and right, I couldn't see the two directors or Anna, the assistant director.
But Leon believed they were watching from nearby. Guilt
So, you don't need to worry about the clothing bag being stolen if you leave it here for now.
Thinking this, Leon stood up and jogged towards Losweiser. (Seven)
He ran to Losweiser's side, and just as he opened his mouth, "What else did I say about the dream—"⒐
Shh~
Losweiser sealed her lips with her index finger, no longer wanting to argue with him about the 2:30 truth-or-dare game.
She looked at the other couples strolling on the beach, all of them holding hands or arm in arm.
Leon followed her gaze and quickly understood what she was thinking.
"Whether a story is perfect or not, the ending is the finishing touch," Losweiser said slowly, while looking up at Leon.
"Well, dear Leo, how about trying to hold the hand of the least compatible Scorpio?" Losweiser proposed the idea in a half-joking manner.
Leon scoffed, "What's there to be afraid of?"
He reached out his arm and took Losweiser's hand.
This time, their fingers were not intertwined.
Because Leon was the one who initiated the hand-holding, their palms faced each other, and he gently enveloped Losweiser's hand with his own.
They were already being very proactive; if they were to adjust to an interlocking position, wouldn't that make the Dragon Queen misunderstand something?
Yes, it's fine to hold hands like this.
The couple walked hand in hand on the beach.
Behind them were two rows of footprints and a tail.
The grit rubbed against the tip of its tail, causing a slight, ticklish sensation.
Holding my hand tightly in a large, slightly cool palm gave me a great sense of security.
The fortune teller named Afu was right; Losweiser is a person who lacks a sense of security.
This has nothing to do with astrology.
She was born this way.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, she found herself walking hand in hand with a Dragon Slayer should have been the last person to give her a sense of security, on the beach.
This world can be pretty crazy sometimes.
Whoosh—
The waves surged to our feet.
"Oh, wait a minute."
Losweiser released Leon's hand, bent down, took off her ankle boots, and then rolled up her trousers to reveal her round and delicate ankles.
"Phew, that's good, now I don't have to worry about getting my shoes wet."
Losweiser held the ankle boots in her hand. "Do you want to take them off too?"
Leon paused for a moment, then said, "Oh, okay."
He also took off his shoes, rolled up his trousers, and lifted his shoes with his other hand.
"Okay, let's go, let's look around some more."
As she spoke, Losweiser naturally took Leon's hand again with her free hand.
The waves surged again, submerging the couple's ankles.
It's cool and refreshing, very comfortable.
The setting sun lingered on the horizon, and this was the second time they had enjoyed the sunset that day.
The first time was in the theater; it didn't feel real.
The atmosphere and environment are nothing compared to this moment.
However, this moment is also coming to an end. There is relief at completing the Director Noa, but for some reason, there is also a slight sense of loss.
The waves crashed, and seagulls cried.
Leon turned his head to look at Losweiser.
The sea breeze lifted the beauty's silver hair, revealing her delicate forehead.
It's said that bangs can enhance a person's appearance, so removing bangs reveals a person's true face.
But this statement doesn't seem to apply to Losweiser.
She's beautiful whether she has bangs or not.
The sunlight shone on her profile, making her features appear even more delicate.
Especially her nose, which is perfectly straight and prominent.
"Why are you staring at me like that?" Losweiser looked straight ahead.
Leon looked away. "Just looking at the sun."
The couple held hands, carrying their shoes, and strolled slowly along the beach in the sunset, their feet brushing against the waves.
Not far away, inside a newsstand, two Dragon girl peeked out.
"Damn it, I should have spent more time looking for the camera this morning," Noa said angrily.
It would be a shame to record this moment between Mom and Daddy in words; taking photos would be the only way to do justice to such an atmospheric scene.
"Huh? Didn't you find the camera this morning, sister?" Mu En asked.
Noa shook her head. "I searched the storage room in Mom's room several times but couldn't find it. Oh well, it's a pity we can't preserve this scene forever."
"Actually, it's not a pity at all."
Anna walked behind the two Dragon girl.
Noa Muen turned around. "Why do you say that?"
Anna stood behind them, gazing at the couple who had begun to frolic in the distance. "His Your Majesty always tells me that Dragon Race's life is too long. Any beautiful thing will eventually expire and become unlovable. Therefore, for her, fleeting beauty is all the more meaningful to cherish."
Noa and Mu En nodded, seemingly understanding.
Although I don't quite understand the meaning of this sentence, it must be a good thing.
Because that's what Mom said.
The two little ones turned their gaze back to the seaside.
Mom and Daddy have already rushed into the diving area and started a water fight.
While they were playing, Mom accidentally fell and was about to fall into the water when Daddy rushed over and caught Mom by the waist.
The two looked at each other, and then—
Anna blindfolded them.
"Children shouldn't watch this."
The Head Maid smiled as she watched the last rays of the setting sun disappear behind Her Your Majesty the Queen.
