Shut Up, Malevolent Dragon! I Don’t Want to Have Any More Children With You Vol. 1 Ch. 78

Chapter 78: Facing each other to do push-ups?

After the warm-up phase ended, Leon sat on the bench to rest.

Rosvitha had her hands stuffed in the pockets of her sportswear jacket as she walked towards him. Her ponytail swayed, giving her a lively and playful appearance.

“Not bad, full of energy, all the joints and muscles are awake, right?” Rosvitha stood beside him.

“More than awake, it feels like I’ve been hit by a dragon’s force.” For Leon, the stimulating effect of the seven-day vacation was no less than that of a dragon’s force.

“Very well, then let’s officially start trying so synchronized training.” Leon shrugged, aning ‘bring it on.’

Rosvitha pulled out a rope from the pocket of her sportswear. Leon’s heart skipped a beat, and he unconsciously shifted his buttocks to the side of the chair. “What’s this? Haven’t had enough of the teacher’s play, now you want to tie up?”

Rosvitha clicked her tongue lightly and slapped Leon’s shoulder with the rope. “Ever heard of the two-legged race?”

Leon nodded. “I’ve done this kind of training before at the Dragon Slayer Academy. The instructors said it could increase synchronicity between teammates.”

“Although we still don’t know what events the St. Hys Academy’s Family Sports Day will have, basic exercises like the two-legged race are still necessary to practice, don’t you think?”

“OK, I have no objections.” After a pause, Leon added, “Just don’t ss up my rhythm later.”

“Haha, thanks for providing with a morning joke.”

After exchanging a few more words, they tied their inner ankles together with the rope. Once they were tied, Leon straightened up, and Rosvitha pressed close to his side.

Although there was no obvious feeling before, being suddenly so close made the height difference between the two of them obvious.

Rosvitha, wearing her sports shoes, stood at about 1.72 ters tall, which was quite tall for a girl, but still fell short compared to Leon’s stature. In their daily interactions as a couple, they usually maintained a certain distance and looked each other in the eye.

Now, with their ankles touching and bodies pressed against each other, if Rosvitha wanted to look into Leon’s eyes, she had to lift her head slightly. It felt awkward for her. When had the Silver Dragon Queen ever looked up to soone? No, she couldn’t raise her head. Look straight ahead, look straight ahead, look straight ahead!

However, she wasn’t the only one who noticed the height difference.

“Hey hey, Your Majesty, you’ve got so leaves on your head. I can see them very clearly. Want to help you get rid of them?” Leon naturally wouldn’t miss such a good opportunity. He had to tease Rosvitha a bit.

Rosvitha closed her eyes and gritted her teeth. “No, thanks.”

“Are you sure you don’t need help? Okay then.”

But Leon intended to continue teasing, aiming for a double kill—

“Hey, Your Majesty, I’ve noticed you have two cowlicks. You know what they say, one cowlick is okay, but two is a sign of trouble. No wonder you—ouch!”

Before Leon could finish, Rosvitha lifted the leg they were tied together with. Leon lost his balance instantly, staggering and falling backward.

Rosvitha squatted down leisurely, supporting her chin with one hand, shaking her head and teasing, “Tsk tsk tsk, Leon, being so tall but unable to stand firm, how can that be? Isn’t it a waste of your height?”

Leon got up from the ground, dusting off the dirt from his buttocks. “I won’t stoop to your level. Let’s settle this with a race.” With that, Leon strode toward the practice field. But Rosvitha remained motionless.

As Leon took a step forward—

“Oops!”

This ti, he stumbled forward. He quickly got up, rubbing his reddened nose. “Are you even paying attention, Rosvitha? Why didn’t you move?”

Rosvitha crossed her arms and pretended to realize suddenly, “Oh, we’re starting now? Okay, my bad, I was lost in thought.”

Leon clicked his tongue, not bothering to argue further with her.

The couple arrived at the central lawn of the practice field. Since it was their first ti attempting the two-legged race together, and they were unsure of their synchronization, they decided to start on the relatively soft grass. But before they could start running, they encountered another issue.

The side they were pressed together on made it uncomfortable for their arms no matter how they positioned them.

“Don’t push .”

“You’re the one pushing .”

The forr Silver Dragon Queen would never tolerate letting soone of the opposite sex get this close to her. It was only Leon who got this treatnt. Anyone else would have been scorched to ashes by now. Yet here he was, still saying “Don’t push.”

“I have an idea,” Leon suddenly said.

“What? Wait a minute—”

Before she could finish her sentence, Leon draped his inner arm over Rosvitha’s back.

However, because Rosvitha’s back was too petite and Leon’s arms were quite long, the excess palm of Leon’s hand could only rest on Rosvitha’s waist. That was Rosvitha’s ticklish spot.

The queen blushed, feeling embarrassed and helpless. She wanted to argue against Leon’s approach, but after so thought, it seed like the only posture that would allow them to proceed smoothly with the two-legged race.

So, Queen Rosvitha didn’t hold back. She lifted her arm and draped it around Leon’s waist. It felt unexpectedly broad and sturdy, with a fantastic texture.

“I’ll count: one, step with the outer leg; I’ll count: two, step with the leg tied together, OK?” Leon said.

“Got it.”

“Alright. Ready… two!”

“What? Two—oops!”

Rosvitha hadn’t reacted yet and nearly ended up doing a split. Luckily, her flexibility saved her, or else she might have pulled a ligant.

She turned her head back in disbelief. “Why does your family count two before one?”

“Why not?” Soone asked innocently, wearing a full-face of innocence.

“You…!”

Rosvitha adjusted her posture and imdiately realized that Leon was clearly retaliating for the falls earlier. She didn’t want to waste any more ti arguing with him. They couldn’t afford to delay their training.

“Let’s start with one, seriously this ti, no tickling,” Rosvitha said.

Leon nodded. The couple adjusted their starting positions again, each embracing the other’s waist.

“Ready— one, two, one, two, one…”

In the beginning, they were quite in sync, with hardly any coordination issues. But as the pace increased, a slight dissonance erged. Leon was slightly slower, while Rosvitha was a bit faster.

They exchanged a glance, neither of them speaking, but the rhythm under their feet slowly returned to normal. Seeing this, they couldn’t help but share a smile before quickly turning their heads away again.

They ran two laps on the grass without a single fall. Their synchronization was quite impressive. They cooperated with each other, silently adjusting whenever they noticed a problem with the rhythm, even saving ti by avoiding verbal communication. To be honest, few real couples could achieve this level of coordination.

After practicing on the grass, they moved onto the hard track. Again, there were very few mistakes, and adjustnts were made promptly.

After a while, the couple sat on the grass to rest, also taking the opportunity to untie the rope binding them together.

“Nice and simple,” Leon chuckled.

“Hmph, don’t get too cocky. Next, you’ll have to do so recovery exercises,” Rosvitha said, nodding toward the side. “Let’s do push-ups, five hundred of them.”

“H-How many?!”

“Five hundred,” Rosvitha said. “What’s wrong? For the strongest Dragon Slayer, isn’t doing five hundred push-ups just as easy as drinking water?”

Since you’ve put it that way, it would be impolite to refuse. Without hesitation, Leon replied, “Easy, watch breeze through it!”

He rolled up his sleeves, ready to get started. But after doing a few, he heard Rosvitha say, “Wait a minute, just doing push-ups is too boring. Let add so difficulty for you.”

“What are you up to now?”

“Get ready.”

Leon got into the push-up position, hands on the ground. Rosvitha stood up and slowly walked over. Then—she sat on his lower back.

Leon’s arms trembled, not because Rosvitha was too heavy, but because of the high-intensity assignnts he had been doing recently, making his lower back very sensitive. With Rosvitha’s softer parts pressing against him, it felt a bit tingly.

Rosvitha sat sideways, her tail resting on Leon’s shoulder. She gently poked his cheek with the tip of her tail. “Okay, let’s begin.”

“You really know how to enjoy yourself,” Leon gritted his teeth.

But as long as there was a vacation, he would gain the power to retaliate against this dragon annoyance. Endure!

“One…”

“Two…”

“Not bad, not bad.”

“Three…”

The bone density of dragons was much higher than that of humans of the sa size, so they were much heavier—

Why on earth did this world have to have such a setting?! Did they ever anticipate a human doing push-ups with a dragon on his back?!

But Rosvitha was just teasing Leon. After a few, she got off his back.

The push-ups continued.

“Three hundred and twenty-eight… three hundred and twenty-nine…”

Halfway through, Leon’s arms trembled. He was pushing himself too hard in his current state. With over a hundred more to go, he probably wouldn’t be able to keep it up—

“Can’t go on? Let help you then.”

“How?”

Rosvitha chuckled and then lay down on the grass. She lifted one of Leon’s arms and slid under him. The two of them were now face to face.

Rosvitha lay comfortably underneath, smirking at Leon. As they went up and down with the push-ups, Leon couldn’t help but occasionally lose control of his descent. A few tis, his nose even lightly brushed against Rosvitha. Her enticing fragrance drifted into his nostrils.

Rosvitha lay there, her ponytail swaying to the side, her bangs scattered across her forehead, exuding a fresh and natural aura, like a girl full of vitality.

“If you can’t hold on, you’ll end up kissing . So, think about it. Is it worth enduring the training, or would you rather have an intimate encounter with your least favorite dragon?”

Alright.

Leon realized: this wasn’t about doing push-ups, it was about the dignity of a Dragon Slayer!

Damn dragoness! Just wait until I finish my vacation, I’ll show you!

“You should… should start a class,” Leon said, struggling to do push-ups.

“What kind of class?”

“How to… how to train… prisoners of war.”

Rosvitha smirked. “I’ll consider it.”

Rosvitha squinted and smiled. “Aren’t I already running a class? You’re my only student, Leon~ my~ dear~ student~”
