A Former Police Officer Who Died And Get A Second Life! Chapter 132: Curious About Dragons

Even though he was already an adult, he could not help feeling excited.

"Maybe not adventurers... maybe more like heroes? Are there big dragons here or sothing?"

"Yes, there are."

"Right, of course there aren’t any—... Wait, there are!?"

It was completely unexpected.

Qiong Xing was shocked that sothing like that actually existed.

When he said he really wanted to see one, his request was rejected imdiately with a smile.

"Why not!?"

"Are you stupid? Of course it’s dangerous! The mont your eyes et, you’ll probably get eaten in one bite!"

"......."

That would definitely be a problem.

He really wanted to see one, but he was not willing to risk his life for it.

Still, dragons were legendary creatures that many boys admired.

Qiong Xing could not help wanting to see one at least once.

"Are there any dragons that are... safe?"

"What kind of question is that? A safe dragon? You’re the first person I’ve ever heard ask sothing like that," Albe said with an exasperated look.

Qiong Xing knew himself that it was a strange question.

"Dragon... what’s that?"

Cari who had been listening nearby tilted his head in confusion.

"What is it...? Now that you ntion it, what exactly is it? A bird? A dinosaur?"

"A dragon is a dragon. Like... a huge body with wings..."

Albe began drawing a picture on the ground to explain to Cari.

Surprisingly, although it was a little rude to think so he was quite good at drawing.

"Oh, you draw really well," Qiong Xing said.

"Is it like Mama?" Cari asked.

"In a way, I suppose," Qiong Xing replied with a smile. "I would really like to see one soday, but I’d rather not get eaten."

"No, it’s not just a little! You should absolutely refuse with everything you’ve got!"

Qiong Xing laughed at Albe’s sharp retort.

Albe then flopped down on the ground as if saying he was done dealing with this.

"Can dragons actually be defeated?" Qiong Xing asked.

"Well, yeah. But even in the demon world, only a handful can do that. If it’s humans, then maybe only those so-called heroes could manage it."

"So heroes really exist."

Qiong Xing had only known about heroes from stories, so hearing that they truly existed made him feel impressed.

But Albe once again looked at him with an exasperated expression.

"Well, if you get the chance, you might et one soday."

"A hero?"

Albe asked if he wanted to et one, but Qiong Xing shook his head.

"No, I ant a dragon. I know it’s better to avoid danger, but I can’t get rid of my curiosity. If I ever get the chance to see one, I’d like to observe it carefully."

How big would it be? How high could it fly?

He wanted to see how its wings worked, how hard its skin was and many other things.

"I want to see one too," Cari said.

"Yes, if it seems safe, we’ll go see one together," Qiong Xing replied.

Cari nodded happily and Qiong Xing smiled back at him.

Watching the two of them, Albe’s cheek twitched slightly.

"By the way, Cari has been very clingy since yesterday. Did sothing happen?" Qiong Xing asked.

"It feels fluffy."

"Hm?"

Cari had been sticking close to him since last night and hardly letting go, which Qiong Xing already found strange.

But what did "fluffy" even an?

"Mom feels fluffy," Cari said again.

"Hmmm?"

Qiong Xing had heard Cari say "fluffy" yesterday too, so he understood the word.

But he still could not connect it with the current situation.

"I’m not trying to send out magic power... but... Albe, do you feel anything?" Qiong Xing asked.

"I don’t feel anything. But maybe so of your magic power from yesterday is still inside Caribert... maybe? I’m not really sure."

Since even Albe did not know, Qiong Xing decided to end practice early that day while carefully checking if there was anything wrong with Cari’s body.

He thought it would probably go away on its own.

But even when night ca, Cari still refused to leave his side.

He kept saying it felt "fluffy" and clung to Qiong Xing.

"Does he have a fever?" soone asked.

"No, he doesn’t. I also asked Albe to check and he said Cari doesn’t seem to be feeling sick..." Qiong Xing replied.

During dinner, Joa noticed that sothing still seed strange about Cari and asked Qiong Xing about it.

"Well, if that’s the case, it should be fine. Co on, hurry up, finish eating, and go to bed."

Even though Cari refused to leave Qiong Xing’s side, he still obediently ate his food when Joa told him to.

And then...

"Mayo, co on. You should eat together too," Qiong Xing said.

After Cari, even Mayo wrapped himself around Qiong Xing’s neck and refused to leave.

During practice earlier, Mayo had also refused to stay away, so he hid inside Qiong Xing’s pocket.

Everyone had been surprised by this unusual behavior.

"It’s rare even for Mayo to act like this. I don’t think it’s sothing like acting like a little kid again, but what’s going on with them?" Joa said.

"Hmmm... I’m not really sure. They don’t make unreasonable demands as long as they stay by my side..." Qiong Xing replied.

As long as they could remain close to him, Cari and Mayo did not complain about anything.

They did not throw tantrums or beg him to do things for them.

Instead, they stayed close as if they were guarding him.

"That’s so impressive bodyguards. With them like that, no one could get close to you," Joa said with a wry smile.

Qiong Xing could only laugh along with him.

He did not know what Cari and Mayo were trying to do.

But if their behavior was ant to protect him, then it only made him feel happy that they liked him so much.

After that, nothing unusual happened.

Cari quietly took a bath and went to sleep.

"I really wonder what’s going on with him," Qiong Xing said.
