Father, I Won’t Do Anything - Chapter 53

Icy Blue

“Ugh”

Because of the unexpected blow, Yurika couldn’t avoid the attack and her body staggered. At some point, Izren will cut Yurika’s arm with his sword.

“This cat!”

Izren shouted.

“Run!”

Izren quickly stood in front of Jayna. However, his sword was easily cut off by his opponent’s magic.

However, he fortunately was able to buy some time.

Jayna, who escaped from Yurika, attacked her with wind magic.

Whoosh!

“…”

However, when Yurika struck the wind with her left hand, Jayna’s magic instantly dissipated.

Jayna’s specialty, wind magic, was a magic with great power, but with little control. Thus, the opponent easily blocked the magic.

‘This…’

And soon, Jayna discovered why.

‘My magic… I can’t control it… something artificial is affecting my body…’

Jayna frowned at the pain in her body. Instead of fighting back, she decided to run away from the enemy.

“Izren!”

Quickly grasping Izren’s hand, Jayna immediately jumped into the air.

At that moment, she heard a cry from somewhere.

“…Stupid!”

Attacking in the air would be very disadvantageous to the attackers unless they could cast multiple magics at the same time.

A long shadow fell over Jayna.

Holding Jayna in his arms, Diamide spoke.

“In my Tower, you do something like this. You… you really do seem like a fool”.

His usually indifferent eyes turned an icy blue.

***

Instead of killing Charlotte, the two dragons decided to use her to get information about the tower.

As a result, it was possible to find out that a maid named Yurika was close to Jayna and that a Suin Knight was guarding her.

– Hehe, the whole tower will be busy on that day.

– My god, even the Tower Lord?

Micheal and Hillbenzia are probably all over the place.

They hid themselves between materials and infiltrated the tower on a day when the tower was busy with events.

– Jay…na.

And it went smooth as planned until he stunned her exclusive maid and turned into that form. By the way…

‘All I have to do now is kill the hybrid…’

They couldn’t believe the Tower Lord, who was busy today and didn’t care about his daughter, was now protecting Jayna.

‘Even so, he’s a male human being! How dare he challenge us, a race superior to his?’

Shushushushush!

Sityle made hundreds of arrows and had them fly all throughout the tower.

[T/N:Can we call him Shitile? Pleasee pr and qc? ;-;]

[P/R: NO PERSE, BAD]

[QC/N: I see no issue with calling him that 😉 ]

No matter how great the wizards of the Tower were, they were beings of low birth who could not even live for a hundred years.

“My lady!”

The knight, who was being held by the hybrid, had his face stained in embarrassment.

It wasn’t just him.

“It’s a dragon! Why is a dragon here!?”

“We are all going to die!”

It was even louder than a normal person screams.

Most were frozen with shock at the sight of Sityle in his original form and the sudden flood of hundreds of arrows directed towards Diamide.

“No one can save you now!”

Sityle quickly ran toward Diamide, saying he would bite and kill that lowly hybrid himself.

Only a dragon can move while using magic.

No one could stop him.

As soon as he thought of it…!

“Arrghh!”

Sityle screamed in pain. He vomited a lot of blood with angry red eyes.

“Who dares to try kill me?!”

But the words didn’t go on. It was because he couldn’t move his body.

A human met his gaze.

‘Tower Lord Diamide…!’

The hundreds of magic arrows aimed at Diamide were all extinguished when he raised his chin.

‘Magic cancellation.’

It was a rather dangerous type of magic, with a greater margin for success, which could be proven as harmful to the caster.

That’s why most people never even try to learn it, let alone practice it. However, Diamide was able to cast it without reciting anything, or having something at hand helping him to cast.

The surprises didn’t end there. Diamide then also cast two spells at once.

Syusyusyut!

The chain, which stretched out from Diamid’s fingertips, dug through Sityle’s mouth and burst into an instant and wrapped the whole body of Sityle. As the entire body, including the wings, was wrapped around, Sityle immediately fell to the ground.

“Ahhhhhh!”

It was a dizzying situation in which the people of Tower, including Jayna, could possibly get injured due to. Diamide glanced down and flicked his hand.

Whiik-

Then, the body of the giant Sityle disappeared in an instant.

He was moved with space-dimension magic.

“T-Tower Lord fought a dragon and won.”

“He’s uninjured, he made it look so easy…”

Many people fell back into place, realizing Diamide’s intense power once again.

The tower became quiet once again, as if nothing had ever happened.

The only trace left was the red blood which they vomited due to the cancellation of their magic.

But the man who did this extraordinary thing had the most indifferent face.

“…!”

Diamide slowly approached Jayna and asked her.

“Why did that dragon attack you?”

Jayna looked surprised when she saw Diamide use soundproof magic so that no one could hear her, and soon shook her head.

‘There’s no way Diamide would care about me.’

Jayna slowly opened her mouth and replied.

“Because I am a hybrid.”

She did not originally bring up such a story, as she was “proof of sin”, being a mixed breed with human blood, and would bring dishonor to the dragons.

It’s useless to talk about this to Diamide, who doesn’t believe in Bezrizhe fidelity.

“…”

While Diamide was silent, the noise of surrounding wizards was heard.

“Oh, did the Tower Lord move the dragon to a prison?”

“To capture an entire dragon. What do you think he’ll do with something this big?”

The wizards were clamoring on and on about the dragon as if they weren’t just on the verge of death.

Jayna quietly lowered her gaze.

Although she was a hybrid, she herself was also a dragon. The story of people researching a dragon’s body didn’t sound pleasant.

‘Well, wizards are people who always value power over everything…’

Jayna was fortunate that Diamide didn’t try to kill her, but on the other hand, she was uncomfortable with assisting in the dragon’s research.

‘The person who loves dragons and even had a child with one, dissecting and destroying them…?’

“I’m not feeling well, so I’ll be leaving first.”

Jayna turned around after the brief remark.

She felt restless.

‘Micheal and Hillbenzia will love the dragon. The wizards of the Tower are crazy about research after all.’

Jayna headed to her room.

“Nya.”

Although she had the same expression as usual, Izren quietly settled down next to Jayna, noticing that Jayna was different from usual.

“Nya, nya.”

“Izren.”

Izren, as if telling Jayna that it’s okay to pat him, shook his tail in front of her.

Jayna brushed through his fluffy fur while looking at it.

And soon after, she fell asleep.

***

The next morning.

“Mmm…”

Sunshine shining through the window tickled Jayna’s eyes. Jayna, who was rolled up in a blanket, though to herself in a daze.

Now, will the Tower Lord tell the world that he killed the dragon?

‘It would be great to earn the nickname Dragon Slayer, not to mention already having defeated the Demon King…’

Although he tried to kill her, Jayna somehow felt bitter when she recalled her own kind collapsing after vomiting blood.

“I have no appetite. Izren, go ahead.”

“Nyaa.”

Finally, Jayna, who decided to skip breakfast, told Izren to go to the restaurant alone.

He stubbornly refused, shaking his head.

Jayna tried to add a few words, saying, “It’s not a big deal” because his eyes seem to contain concerns.

“I’m just…”

Well, at that moment.

Boom!

Izreen was back in his human form.

“I’m really sorry.”

“What? Why?”

“Because I’m weak. That’s why the lady is sad. Now.”

“It’s not like that.”

For how long did she argue with Izren for?

Tok, tok.

Jayna heard a quick knock on the door.

“Come in…”

Two people came in even before Jayna finished her sentence.

Jayna naturally thought that Micheal, who is impatient, would come in first, but unexpectedly, it was Hilbenzia who entered first.

“Jayna, you didn’t come to the restaurant today. Are you tired of my food?”

Subsequently, Micheal followed, with a worrisome face that didn’t suit him.

“Were you that scared yesterday? So much so that you lost your appetite?”

“No, it’s not that…”

Jayna crawled into the blanket.

She looked like the cutest caterpillar in the world, but Hilbenzia and Micheal didn’t stir from their original expression.

“Jayna, are you really sick?”

“Are you sick to death?”

Izren, who turned into a cat again, opened his mouth on the bed.

It was his form of a threat to not disturb Jayna who was currently resting.

“Nyaa.”

“How dare you… you couldn’t even protect her yesterday!”

Izren was soon forced to quieten down due to Micheals words.

He wasn’t wrong at all.

Micheal, the person who uttered such words, didn’t look too elegant himself.

He washed his face dry as if he didn’t like something.

“But it’s not for me to say…Damn it.”

“If the Tower Lord hadn’t shown up when he did…”

As the atmosphere grew heavier, Jayna hurriedly changed the subject.

“By the way, how did the dragons get into the tower?”

“It looks like they came in through a space between materials.”

“I know that the Tower of Wizards has strict security, but even that has been breached? I must say, they really must be dragons…”

“Yes, a dragon could have breached our security, but that’s not the point. The dragons escaped from prison.”

As soon as Hilbenzia’s words ended, Jayna, who had been buried under the blanket, sprang up.
