Chapter 29 - Shameless (1/2)
Chapter 29: Shameless
“I’m not the egg thief.” Park Noah insisted, gritting her teeth.
“….”
“I thought it was just a normal egg. It was dumped around at the corner of the market, and I thought it was simply a big ostrich egg. I was even amazed. But when I woke up the day later, about to cook my omelet, a tiny dragon came out. And it seemed like the imprint immediately began…”
“Do you know what responsibilities a dragon’s master has? I don’t think it’s merely a matter of sharing mana.”
“I know…” Park Noah mumbled, feeling helpless. She was still upset at Kyle Leonard for suddenly barging in her house and aimed a pistol at her without any hint of hesitation or mercy. She had transmigrated out of the blue as Eleonora, and happened to stumble across the dragon egg Kyle Leonard had been searching for. Now, chaos was ensuing inside her once peaceful home.
Kyle Leonard and Park Noah stared at each other with narrow eyes and spoke at the same instant.
“How do you know? You’re not from this world.”
“Did you know? That Mu is a dragon?”
Immediately after, they shifted their gaze away from each other.
Damn it. Why does he never let one go easily? Should I tell you that this is the world from the book I read, the reason that I know almost everything about the original story? Or that I know all about you, even who your future spouse will be?
No, it’s not like I have to divulge everything to him in one go. After all, I’m not a suspect anymore. Let’s be optimistic, Noah.
“It’s been about two years since I transmigrated… I know everything since then, of course. But when did you know that Mu is a dragon? I think you knew that imprinting shares the magic between the master and its pet…”
“….”
“Don’t tell me you knew since the beginning. And you didn’t tell me that imprinting would make me feel better?”
Kyle Leonard glanced at Muell, who sat beside Park Noah and rolled his eyes at the investigator.
“What, are you two…” Park Noah was surprised to see both of them interact in such manner. What is going on between them?
“He said he’d help me imprint on Noah if I didn’t make any trouble,” Mu mumbled back, pouting his lips.
“But you will try to kill me if I didn’t.” Kyle Leonard shot back.
“I didn’t want to kill you.”
“Didn’t you say with your own mouth, ‘All I have to do is not kill?’”
