A Former Police Officer Who Died And Get A Second Life! Chapter 194: A Dragon’s Territory

In his human form now, he grabbed Qiong Xing’s arm to keep him from running and forced him to walk.

"This place..."

The buildings around them had clearly once been inhabited, but they were now old, crumbling, and abandoned.

Not a sound stirred.

It was clear no one lived here anymore.

"Our country... or, it used to be a country. Now it’s just my brother and . Well, if you keep bearing children, it won’t matter anymore," the dragon said with a laugh.

Qiong Xing glared at him, but the dragon only laughed as if that were the most amusing thing in the world.

Holding onto the main street, Qiong Xing walked silently, his steps tense but steady.

Ahead, he could see a particularly large building that was standing out even from a distance.

It wasn’t flashy, but the interior furniture was neatly arranged, giving the impression that soone of high status lived here.

"You must be tired. Rest here for a bit. I’ll go look for my brother," the dragon said.

Qiong Xing was led into one of the many rooms.

Before he could react, the dragon left, the sound of a lock clicking behind him confirming that escape was impossible for now.

On the other hand, it also ant that until the door was opened, he was safe.

"...Lian, are you okay?" he whispered to the child he held.

Once he confird the footsteps had faded, he exhaled deeply and checked on Lian who was holding her fingers in her mouth while looking back at him with the sa calm expression he always had.

Relief washed over him, but he knew Lian must be hungry.

He then fed her milk while his eyes scanned the room, searching for any way to escape unnoticed.

...

Until recently, Iseul had not been able to control his magic power properly.

His older brother Raon had told him to wait outside, so he had spent his free ti napping in a tree.

But the mont he descended, he couldn’t take his eyes off the golden eyes boy who was staring back at him.

The other hadn’t seed worried about him, but when he tried to look again, the golden eyes boy had imdiately turned his head away.

Still, he followed him, hoping to see that gaze once more.

The boy’s confident words when he t him were not afraid at all, he spoke with a boldness that made Iseul’s chest tighten.

At first, the boy had ignored him entirely.

But apparently, he already knew his brother and was talking with him.

Iseul tried to take him ho but failed, even getting punched in the process.

He worked hard to adjust his magic properly so he could take human form and was determined to et him again.

When he finally went into town with excitent, he quickly got lost.

Finding the boy he was looking for had been an unexpected joy.

When he ran up in delight, the other twisted his face in annoyance, but he was thrilled that his own reflection appeared in those eyes.

He even received a gift: a bone.

While gnawing on it, he noticed his brother seed distracted sowhere in the distance.

Still, Iseul returned ho in high spirits as he savored the sweet treat he had been given.

Over ti, he kept insisting to his brother that he wanted to make the boy his pet.

But the brother finally told him it was impossible, because the other already had a mate.

"Really!? Who?"

"You were there last ti. Because of you, I almost lost an arm!"

"But he’s fine now... really? He has a mate? Huh? That was the beastman from before, right? A male? A male’s mate?"

Iseul had only been paying attention to the boy, so the rest was fuzzy in his mory, but judging by the beastn’s build, the other wasn’t exactly soone you could call female.

"Right... they already have a child. That’s why... no, that’s exactly why it’s impossible," Raon said.

"Huh?"

A child?

Iseul rembered the ti a little kid had clung to the boy before and for a mont he had thought that the little kid might be his kid, but the magical energy clearly showed it was a demon, so that couldn’t have been it.

From the way the brother spoke, it sounded like he himself had produced the child.

"You an... their destined mate? Really? And they’ve already had a child?"

Iseul had only ever heard such things in ancient fairy tales.

In all his long life, he had never seen it happen for real.

Apparently, dragons could have destined mates too.

"Apparently," aning it was extrely rare—so rare he had never seen it before.

But still...

"...A destined mate, and they already have a child? Ha... ha ha... hahahaha!"

How could that be possible?

So many impossible things were happening that he laughed, but deep in his chest, a surge of anger welled up.

The fact that it wasn’t him, that it was soone else...

That child existed between the other and soone else.

And that perfect face was smiling at soone who wasn’t him.

It made his blood boil.

"...It’s fine. With that appearance, he can even have a child. And because he have magic, he can handle a dragon," said Iseul.

"Iseul?"

"Co on, co on! It’s way better than so stupid human woman who just screams all the ti! If he can give birth to a dragon, that’s perfect, but even if not, magic makes him better than nothing."

"...Iseul?"

"And if that boy has magic, maybe that boy could have one as well."

"Iseul!!"

He couldn’t let the dragon bloodline die out.

Both he and his brother were male, so they understood that they had to have a female of so kind produce the next generation.

It was impossible with the beastn since they had no magic.

He had thought of demons, but their blood was too strong and the likelihood of producing a dragon was low.

Other species would be the sa.
