These Lunatics are Obsessed With Me

Chapter 30

“Kugh, what…!”

This crazy bastard!

Baek Si Hoo’s longsword aimed at my left ankle. He raised the longsword without hesitation.

“After all, you’ll still be able to use the auxiliary skill even without one of your legs.”

“St–op…!”

I shouted in a hoarse voice, but Baek Si Hoo paid it no heed. On the contrary, the strength of the foot pressing down on my chest increased. I couldn’t stand the sight of the sword falling towards my feet and shut my eyes tightly.

Clang!

However, that loud sound was not the sound of his sword cutting through my flesh. There was an unpleasant sound as if iron and steel had collided. When I opened my eyes, I saw Eden parry Baek Si Hoo’s sword with the chain bound to his wrist.

“Eden…”

The confrontation did not last long. Eden was unable to use his ability due to the sealing item. When Baek Si Hoo swung his sword, Eden collapsed to the ground helplessly.

“Kugh!”

Baek Si Hoo showed his disdain as he looked at the fallen Eden.

“Like a bug.”

This man is a typical psychopath who thinks of others as bugs. This damn bastard villain.

“You’re the bug. You bastard.”

Baek Si Hoo’s eyes turned to me as I cursed at him. His slightly loosened foot immediately pressed down on my chest once more.

“Say it again.”

“The bug… is… you, you… fucker…”

Gradually, my vision started turning black. As soon as my breathing stopped completely, the system window shook violently. At the same time, a golden light erupted with the system voice.

[Hatching completed.]

“…!”

[Would you like to hatch the Nídhögg (Legendary Class, Dragon)?]1

[YES/NO]

Yes! Definitely yes!

A bright white light appeared before my eyes. I didn’t just come here recklessly. The legendary dragon, Nidhogg, which was received as a reward from an SS-rank dungeon was already in the process of hatching since the press conference. And finally, the hatching is over now.

An S-class dragon that makes enemies tremble in fear at the SS-class world!

I opened my eyes imagining a terrifying dragon that was about to appear. Then, in front of me, just as I imagined, the terrifying…!

“Kyaung?”

The very terrifying…

“Kkyaaung!”

“…”

Far from being terrifying, a small, dainty black baby dragon was staring at me.

[Nidhogg (legendary-class, dragon) recognizes you as its parent.]

[Would you like to register it as your summoned monster?」

[YES/NO]

“Why is it so small?”

Obviously, in the SS-class novel, it appeared as big as an adult as soon as Kang Yoo-hyun hatched the Nidhogg. But what I see in front of me now is a small, baby-sized dragon that only goes up to my knees.

“Kkyang! Kkyaang!”

“Uh! Hey, go away. You’re drooling.”

Do you know that your saliva is a deadly poison? As I waved my hand in surprise, Nidhogg looked at me with a grim expression on its face.

Ugh, my heart hurts. I looked at the groaning Nidhogg, and Nidhogg’s expression suddenly changed.

“Grrrr…”

Baek Si Hoo, who had stepped back at the appearance of the light when Nidhogg hatched, had a strange expression on his face and looked at Nidhogg. Nidhogg glared at Baek Si Hoo with a fierce expression on its face. Instinctively, Baek Si Hoo seemed to notice its threatening aura. But he wasn’t scared at all even if Nidhogg glared at him like that. It was more like a Pomeranian growling. It looks so insignificant. I’d rather block Baek Si Hoo’s presence and hide Nidhogg from his sight.

[Would you like to register it as your summoned monster?」

[YES/NO]

I mean, is this the right situation for this?

I glared at the system window that couldn’t read the atmosphere. The system windows continued to push like a private loan shark insensitively.

[Would you like to register it as your summoned monster?」

[YES/YES]

…Excuse me, isn’t that slightly different from before?

[Would you like to register it as your summoned monster?」

[It would be beneficial for you if you register smoothly.]

[YES/YES]

Wow, now you’re even threatening me.

I smirked and waved my hand to choose YES. Fortunately, Baek Si Hoo did not move hastily as he was wary of Nidhogg’s sudden appearance.

“It’s a monster whose grade cannot be checked.”

“…!”

With a small mutter, I realised that Nidhogg’s grade wasn’t even visible to Baek Si Hoo, who was an S-class hunter.

That’s not possible. Nidhogg’s grade is S,2 so, it should be possible for Baek Si Hoo to read Nidhogg’s information.

[Please name your summon.]

[(max. 15 characters including spaces).]

Gosh, that’s a lot of stuff to do!

I frowned as I looked at the system window that didn’t give me time to think calmly and opened my mouth. Anyway, I’ve been thinking about a name for Nidhogg ever since I got the egg.

“Yong-sik!”

[…….]

The system window stopped working as if it had been temporarily buffered. Meanwhile, Baek Si Hoo, who frowned at my unexpected shout, raised his sword. I immediately threw myself at the gun that had fallen on the floor during the scuffle.

[Registration of the summoned monster ‘Yong-sik’ has been completed.]

I took the gun and pointed it at Baek Si Hoo, at the same time, the system voice rang out in my mind, which sounded reluctant for some reason. But then—

“Kreuk, kreukk…”

“…Yong-sik?”

Yong-sik’s small body wriggled. The black scales embedded in its wings trembled and soared upwards in unison.

“Kyaak!”

“Ugh!”

There were sharp and poisonous teeth sticking out of his mouth. Yong-sik’s poison breath flew to Baek Si Hoo. I just opened my mouth and stared at the sight stupidly.

“Kugh, fuck!”

The poison breath penetrated through all the passive skills that were supposed to protect Baek Si Hoo and hit his face. Baek Si Hoo’s body was quickly messed up by the tangle of black energy resisting the green slime poison.

The appearance of a beautiful face with white skin covered in poison and melting is very unsightly. I backed away slowly with the gun in my hand.

“Damn it, Han Yi-jin!”

“Ah, shit.”

It was like watching a zombie movie. If I felt even a little more nauseous, I would have vomited.

However, Baek Si Hoo still gave off a terrifying energy even with his terrible and messed up appearance. 

I calmly aimed my gun. It was a great opportunity to get rid of Baek Si Hoo, who would become a hindrance as a henchman of the Laufey guildmaster in the future.

“What’s this room? There is a barrier.”

“…!”

But then, a voice presumably from the association’s side was heard. There was a barrier preventing anyone from entering this place unless they were guild members. However, it was only a matter of time before the people from the association entered after removing the barrier.

“Damn it.”

When Baek Si Hoo gritted his teeth and expressed his killing intent, Yong-sik spread his wings again and let out a threatening sound. Good job, my Pomeranian Yong-sik!

“Next time it won’t end like this.”

“Hah, I agree.”

Baek Si Hoo’s body disappeared as he stared at me, who was holding a gun. It was scary that he didn’t groan even though his face was still swollen from the poison that was still on it.

I clicked my tongue inside and approached Eden.

“Hey, are you okay?”

“Haa, Yi-jin-ah.”

Luckily, I saw that Eden didn’t seem seriously injured, and called out to Yong-sik.

“Yong-sik, come here.”

“Kyau?”

“Do you see this? Can I ask you a favor?”

“Kyau!”

When I spoke while pointing to the chain attached to Eden’s arm, Yong-sik happily bit the chain with his poisonous teeth.

Crunch!

The sealing item that was hit by Nidhogg’s S-class poison simply shattered and was scattered into pieces on the floor. I looked at it with satisfaction and then looked around.

“Next… uh?”

I was aiming to get rid of Eden’s contract and quickly run away, but the entire vault containing those contracts melted. Yong-sik’s poison breath melted even the vault that was near him.

But at first glance, I think there were more contracts for high-level awakeners besides Eden. Dangerous people involved in all kinds of crimes. Since the contracts had been burned, I guess they have been freed from their leashes…?

“The barrier has been lifted.”

“Uhh!”

I took a small breath and pulled Eden away. Ah, I don’t know anymore. The association and the Odin Guild will take care of the rest.

“Let’s go!”

“Uh? Oh.”

After Eden clenched his fists for some time, Eden demonstrated his ability skillfully, despite it having been sealed for days.

Eden held me and flew out of the building through the broken window. Yong-sik, who spread his wings behind us, flapped them and followed us.

“But where are we going?”

”Umm… for now.”

I looked around and pointed at a deserted alley. As we descended to the ground, Yong-sik folded his wings and clung to my feet, rubbing his face on them.

He must be good at using his fangs right? Even a drop of poison is fatal to me. Yong-sik-ah. I remembered the scene of Baek Si Hoo’s face melting for no reason.

“What is that?”

Eden, whose face was full of scars after unlocking the sealing item, quickly recovered, opened his eyes wide and asked. When Yong-sik made eye contact with Eden, he growled again.

“Whoa, it’s okay. He’s not a bad guy. Good boy, Yong-sik-ah.”

“….Is his name Yong-sik?”

“Yeah, isn’t he cute?”

When I asked while patting Yong-sik’s head, Eden asked back with a strange expression on his face.

“His name? Or his appearance?”

“Both.”

“…”

In the end, Eden exercised his right to remain silent. I mean, what’s wrong with my baby? Even though he might become a terrifying mythical dragon carrying corpses on his wings when he grows up, isn’t he cute now?

When I tilted my head, Yong-sik also tilted his head. Yes, I know it, he’s cute. My baby. When I scratched him under his chin, he squeaked like a cat.

Then I turned around and looked at Eden and asked:

“Oh, what are you going to do now?”

“…Me?”

“Yes. I burned your contract.”

Eden is now a free man. An unfair contract full of injustice could no longer limit Eden’s body or skills. As long as he manages to evade the police investigation, he will be fine. Oh, should I talk to Sim Dante and ask him to help Eden wash his identity clean? As I was thinking inside, Eden approached me.

“What about you?”

“Me? Oh, I actually…”

I scratched my cheek and told him about the business with the Odin Guild. Eden couldn’t possibly have seen the press conference since he was locked up, so I briefly told him about the contract I had signed with Odin guildmaster.

“…Well, that’s what happened to me. So, what are you going to do now?”

I looked at Eden and asked. But his face looked grim. As I looked at him curiously, Eden, who was approaching me, put his hand on my shoulder.

“Yi-jin-ah…”

“What?”

His eyes narrowed when I met them. He seemed to be smiling with his eyes, but somehow I felt he wasn’t smiling. Then Eden uttered something I couldn’t understand.

“If you picked up a dog, you should take responsibility.”

T/N: pick me up too (◕ᴥ◕)
