Chapter 288: Chapter 288

His body was covered in red scales that looked even sturdier than an armor.

His wings flapped as if it could cover the world, and the tail at the end of his body was wagging.

The complete form of his dragon-like appearance gave off a blinding and impactful presence.

An organism that looked like it was from ancient times was right in front of them.

It was known as the most powerful organism in the magic world.

It was a dragon.

“Oh my god.”

Ho Sung Lee froze up and looked up at the dragon while Min Sung simply looked up at Repone with a straight face.

“Now we’re talking,” Min Sung said while clenching onto his Gungnir S.

Repone, who transformed into a dragon, stared at Min Sung with his vertical eyes and flapped his wings.

A strong wind blew, and the large dragon, which was floating in the air, slowly descended onto the earth.

“If I use my force with the 12 circle magic, I can wipe out this city entirely.”

In response to Repone, Ho Sung Lee gasped and shut his mouth.

That was because it didn’t sound like he was bluffing, but Ho Sung Lee was the only one who felt pressured.

Min Sung looked up at the gigantic Repone and smiled.

“I won’t let that happen,” replied Min Sung.

Repone stared down at Min Sung for a long time.

His gaze was peculiar, and after noticing the emotion in his eyes, Min Sung tilted his head.

A moment later, Repone began to slowly lower his head to the ground.

And then something surprising happened.

Boom!

His body touched the ground.

The red dragon, Repone, laid down in front of Min Sung.

That was a sign of surrendering.

The fact that he surrendered despite having the ability to launch powerful magic meant that he acknowledged Min Sung’s abilities.

He had accepted that his magical abilities were useless in front of Min Sung, and that was a big deal.

It was as if Min Sung made a dragon surrender with his presence alone without the need to fight.

And Min Sung knew… that Repone wasn’t surrendering because of fear alone.

Kaboom!

Min Sung stabbed his Gungnir S into the ground with a thundering noise.

At that moment…

A system message appeared.

[Red Dragon has requested a 1000-year servant to master contract.]

[Do you accept?]

[Accept/Reject]

Min Sung immediately pressed accept.

As soon as he did, blue lights floated around Repone, and Min Sung felt as though a strong Aura was integrating with Repone in the center.

And then…

Flash!

A powerful and blinding light exploded.

Once the light disappeared, an unexpected sight unfolded in front of Min Sung’s eyes.

Ho Sung Lee walked toward Min Sung and stood in front of him.

“What happened?” Ho Sung Lee asked as he looked in the direction Min Sung was looking at.

Min Sung tilted his head.

“I’m not sure.”

Ho Sung Lee watched as if he had seen a ghost.

In the direction where Min Sung and Ho Sung Lee were looking was a very small baby dragon curled up to sleep.

“Why is it so small?” Ho Sung Lee blinked and mumbled.

At that moment, another system message appeared in front of Min Sung’s eyes.

[Through your new servant to master relationship with the Red Dragon, the system will initialize, but the stats will remain, and he will enter a new rank…]

The explanation grew long.

In short, it meant that through the special contract with Min Sung, the Red Dragon, Repone would start ranking up all over again from a baby dragon, and with his stats maintained, he could continue to level up.

As soon as he heard the explanation, Min Sung finally understood why he allowed the servant to master relationship so easily.

The dragon had a much longer lifespan than that of a human.

To them, a thousand years wasn’t a long time, and just by signing a contract with Min Sung, Repone had a better ability to grow.

From Repone’s stance, he had nothing to lose.

“Sir?”

In response to Ho Sung Lee’s calling, Min Sung gave him a short summary of what just happened.

And Ho Sung Lee nodded in understanding.

“That’s impressive. He can keep his stats and rank up… Anyway, he was so scary just a minute ago. But he’s super cute now,” said Ho Sung Lee while laughing.

“Call Ji Yoo Kim and tell her it’s over.”

“Oh! Yes, Sir.”

Ho Sung Lee hurriedly took out his phone and called Ji Yoo Kim.

While he was on the phone, Min Sung stared down at the dragon, Repone.

Repone seemed to be asleep.

He took out his Gungnir S from the ground and tried to tap Repone awake, but the baby dragon was so fast asleep that he didn’t budge.

A moment later, Ho Sung Lee approached and briefed Min Sung.

“Sir, I notified Commander Kim that it’s been settled.”

Min Sung looked back at the destroyed gym.

The building was completely destroyed and the surroundings were a mess.

“Did you tell her about the compensation?”

In response, Ho Sung Lee laughed.

“I told her, but she said it’s okay. She said she’ll claim it from you one way or another.”

Min Sung nodded.

“Let’s go. Carry him,” Min Sung commanded while pointing at Repone with his chin.

“… I’m sorry?”

Ho Sung Lee dripped in a cold sweat as he looked at the sleeping Repone.

“Me?”

“Then should I?”

“… Will it be okay? What if something happens because I’m not his master…?”

“Then I’ll save you.”

Ho Sung Lee smiled awkwardly and nodded.

“That’s true. You can just do that, but do you still have that power on earth…?”

When Min Sung’s eyes started to look annoyed, Ho Sung Lee stopped talking and immediately picked up Repone.

“Wow! I thought he’d be really heavy, but he’s pretty light. Haha.”

“What’s wrong with your face?”

Ho Sung Lee’s face looked like he ate something rotten.

“It’s a dragon. I’ve never carried a dragon before. Haha.”

Ho Sung Lee’s face was dripping in sweat.

He just looked like a baby dragon, but because he was actually a dragon with 12 circle magic, Ho Sung Lee couldn’t help but feel pressured inside.

But Min Sung didn’t care and began walking.

Ho Sung Lee followed Min Sung from behind with the dragon in his arms.

***

“Wow! I can’t believe it! He’s so cute!”

“Hm…”

Sia Jang looked at the red dragon, Repone’s big head, small wings, and chubby body with twinkling eyes while Woong Jang watched with a serious look on his face

“Chef Jang, are you okay?”

In response to Ho Sung Lee’s worry, Woong Jang shook his hands.

“Yeah. It’s just such a rare sight. A dragon? I can’t believe it with my own eyes. Haha.”

While Woong Jang laughed, Sia Jang stuck out her head toward Ho Sung Lee.

“Can I touch him?” Sia Jang asked with sparkling eyes.

“It might be dangerous. Just look at him for now.”

In response to Ho Sung Lee’s rejection, Sia Jang looked sad, but as soon as she looked at Repone, her face brightened up again like that of a little kid.

Snap!

The sound of a camera could be heard.

Ho Sung Lee and Sia Jang turned around to see Woong Jang filming Repone.

“This is such a special day. We have a new family member.”

Woong Jang laughed.

***

Min Sung gulped at the sight of the bread spread across the table.

There were all sorts of different bread.

He hadn’t forgotten for a single second during his fight against Repone.

The desire to eat the bread continued since they began fighting on their way home afterward.

Since it was more of a snack than a meal, he was able to hold in his hunger.

If he was really hungry, he could have killed Repone because he would’ve been really sensitive.

In any case, he was able to endure it until a moment ago, but as soon as he saw the bread on the table after not eating for a while, he couldn’t control himself any longer.

As a result, Min Sung’s focus was solely on the bread.

‘Should I try the one that’s the closest to me?’

He took out the bread from the transparent wrapper.

The first one he took out was a chocolate croissant.

It was a cute bread that resembled a conch, and inside the bread was chocolate just as the name implied.

Min Sung took a big bite of the chocolate croissant.

While it chewed softly, the chocolate inside exploded inside his mouth.

Min Sung’s eyes grew wide.

It was incredible.

The feeling of the chocolate explosion was like no other.

He hadn’t eaten many sweet things up until this point.

He focused on main meals, and aside from ice cream, he hadn’t tried any kind of snack.

So the king of carbohydrates known as bread was shocking to him, especially because it was a croissant with chocolate inside.

Along with the soft texture, the sweet flavor was enough to make his brain explode.

Upon finishing the chocolate croissant, Min Sung quickly grabbed the pizza bread.

Why was it that the pizza bread made his heart pound so hard?

It looked absolutely delicious.

It was possible that it looked more delicious because he was hungry, but the pizza bread had outstanding visuals that were capable of increasing one’s appetite.

Min Sung took off the wrapper.

The oily pizza bread was within Min Sung’s hands.

As soon as he took a bite of the bread covered in sausages, vegetables, and red pizza sauce…

“Roar.”

“…?”

He heard a strange sound.

He put down his pizza bread and looked to his left.

The red dragon, Repone, had woken up near the entrance of the kitchen and was looking up at Min Sung.

Red sparks were coming out of Repone, who was wagging his tail.

“He’s awake! That’s so cool!!”

Sia Jang appeared in the kitchen and freaked out over how cute Repone was while Ho Sung Lee and Woong Jang also appeared to look down with fascination.

When Min Sung decided to ignore him and bit into his pizza bread, he heard wings flapping.

Repone flew into the air and stood on top of the table were Min Sung’s pieces of bread were spread out.

Repone blinked his big eyes and scanned the pieces of bread.

At that moment, Min Sung’s heart was filled with tension.
