Chapter 10

“Kid, open your mouth. If you keep your mouth shut, I’ll spill all of this expensive stuff.”

Listening to Michael’s taunt, Jayne gaper her mouth in surprise and reluctantly accepted the reagent. Knowing how valuable it was and wasting anything as good as that seems insane. Even if it doesn’t belong to her in the first place.

“Ah…”

After she finished drinking the reagent, a change occurred.

Michael grinned with a sparkling face.

“You should have drank it sooner. But I also understand your hesitation in drinking it.”

Michael stroked her hair as if they had a good relationship like normal siblings, but Jayna didn’t feel it as that.

She was focused on feeling the bursting like sensations in her body. As the fresh and refreshing energy spread throughout her body, her mind and body suddenly got better.

“Wah…”

Jayna took a healing reagent and her voice cleared up immediately. Strangely enough, the cold was also gone.

When she came to her senses, Michael’s murmur caught her ear.

“You said you were blessed with mana, but divine power works just like how it works to humans. Not like how it works to evil spirits full of mana. But the effect to you though seems less efficient than humans…”

He said it wasn’t an experiment, but at least Michael didn’t do anything to hurt her.

Michael, who stared at her with eyes full with interest, smiled brightly as he looked at Jaina.

“Now, that your cold is gone, go and see the Madame now.”

Michael pushed Jayna with a smile.

After seeing Michael use expensive healing reagents to Jayna, the Madame smiled wider than before and said to Jayna that she was adorable.

“How old are you? Eight? Nine?”

“I’m ten years old.”

Michael whispered in a voice that could only be heard by Jayna.

“So why are you so small when you eat a lot? Did you turn that way on purpose because you’re fond of small things?”

“No, it just changed. I was originally smaller than other dragons.”

“Why?”

“Wouldn’t I have grown taller if I knew why?”

She was shorter than her peers in her previous life. At this point it seemed to be my destiny, but Michael gave a wrinkled face at Jayna’s reply.

“What the hell is wrong with this kid?”

He was standing stiffly with folded arms It was obvious that he was irritated.

Jayna didn’t understand why her short stature would offend Michael.

Michael turned his head and told Madame.

“So, tailor-made suits take a while, huh? Then give me everything you have for now.”

“What?”

It’s uncomfortable to receive something from others without doing anything for them, now she’s getting custom clothes and ready-made clothes?

“Every clothes that fit her.”

There are so many kinds of ready-made clothes!

Jayna looked down at the dress she was wearing.

A low chromatic color of purple with an unsavory running of frills and lace.

Even Jayna, who doesn’t know much about clothes, felt that these clothes were extremely expensive.

“That’s nice.”

But Michael only gave a brief review of this fine dress.

The person who made the clothes is standing next to him, but that’s all the praise the dress got.

I looked at him, thinking that it was too much, and suddenly something caught my eye.

‘Why are the ends of your ears red?’

Not knowing that Michael was praising her, not her clothes, and that he was feeling ashamed, Jayna approached him to solve the question.

“Excuse me…”

But Michael did not give Jayna time to ask questions.

“Hey, take it!”

Jayna couldn’t help but catch the flying bag with both hands. Then she opened it and looked inside.

“Put your clothes there, I don’t want my clothes to be put in the same place with yours.”

“Then I’ll just return it to you later….”

“No, I don’t need it. Do you think I have only one space pocket*?”

T/L: *(I think it’s a small magic instrument (pocket-size) where the owner can store his/her things)

“Did you just say ‘a space pocket’?”

Michael stuffed the clothes into a very expensive magic pocket and handed it to Jayna.

‘It’s a pleasure to be wearing new clothes.’

From now on, I don’t have to worry about wearing wet clothes, and I didn’t have to carry heavy objects. Jayna was in a very awkward situation. This was because it wasn’t what she wanted.

‘I wanted a little luxury, not a lot of money.’

However, it was clear that a same answer would be given if she refused.

“How many more pieces should I make for you? It’s a matter of pride and degrading my character.”

Of course it may be a small amount of money for him.

But it’s not like that for Jayna. She always takes to heart what she receives unilaterally.

‘I can’t pay you back now, but I’ll pay you back someday.’

Jayna made a deep commitment and began to fret whether she could repay Michael.

Michael was a rich man who couldn’t be compared to herself. Is there anything I can give to him?

‘It’s kind of sad to have no money, you can’t give gifts to others easily.’

When leaving the Dragon village, she couldn’t bring anything but a few clothes. So now, Jayna couldn’t give him anything.

Besides, Michael seemed to have everything he needed.

‘Let’s just change our mind.’

On the contrary, Jayna decided to think about what she wanted the most in her previous life.

‘The thing I wanted the most is a bouquet.’

Flowers were the pinnacle of luxury in her standards. It’s useless except for being pretty.

Her former life’s father, who didn’t buy her anything that she need, also had never bought her a single flower. So even during the graduation ceremony, Min Bo-bae was empty-handed.

Besides, I didn’t have a boyfriend or girlfriend, so I didn’t get a bouquet.

‘I also wanted to hold a bouquet of beautiful flowers at least once.’

Some say it’s difficult to make and deal with (flowers), but Jayna has never even thought about it.

She rose from her seat hesitantly.

Michael would have already seen a lot of flowers blooming in the garden of the Tower, and most of them were from flower trees, so it was difficult to weave them into a bouquet.

‘Oh, come to think of it…”

Thinking about it, Jayna recalled a place in the novel.

Just as the Tower has a way to go outside without needing the need to through the gatekeeper, there was a garden that could only be accessed in a hidden way.

Haan Garden, where Diamide, the villain in the novel, used to fall in thought alone.

‘But today, he (Michael) said he (Diamide) went on a business trip.’

I don’t think it would be a problem to sneak in and pick up some flowers.

Jayna thought long and hard and decided to put it into action.

Whistling, imagining a garden, turning the door knobs, the white world you can see…..

“Wow.”

At first, I thought it was snow. The waves of white flowers covering the garden are so dazzling.

The flower of Leshanne*, which filled her sight, was smiling at her, blooming its beauty.

T/N: Ikk I can’t find the flower. It’s 르샨느 (Leu-syan-neu) in hangul.

White petals flew up in the sky, floating petal by petal. It was as if she had come to a world of snow, not the tower that she had been staying for a long time. It was a beautiful sight as if it wasn’t real.

She felt dizzy for a moment with the scent of Leshanne’s flowers.

‘It’s the prettiest flower I’ve ever seen.’

A world where white waves gently flow.

And I’m in it.

‘Have I ever been this peaceful in my life?’

Jayna whistled low as she made a bouquet of flowers from the garden.

Maybe Michael has also never received a bouquet like her.

The more she touched the flowers, the more excited her heart was. It was because it was her first time making a bouquet of flowers and giving it as a gift to someone.

Her movement was slow due to the addition of clumsy gestures from her small hands. It was even slower when the greed of wanting to make it beautiful was added.

However, as time went by, the bouquet has developed a rather decent shape.

‘I made it, but isn’t it pretty?’

A beautiful flower bloomed with pure white petals encircling the center in several layers. It’s thin but it has a more desolate beauty.

And it was when Jayna was so absorbed in the bouquet that she was making.

“I didn’t expect a rat in my garden.”

Jayna looked back in surprise at the sight of a man.

‘What’s this…?’

The lethargic blue eyes stared at her filled with contempt. She was crushed under the heavy pressure that it emits.

“Why are you here?”

Jayna could not have known.

The reason why her father is standing right in front of her.

Obviously, she came here because she thought that the tower lord was away for a meeting.

“I know you came because you wanted something from me.”

Diamide looked down with his sharp eyes to Jayna who broke into his garden.

“I thought I made it clear to you before. You’re not my daughter.”

Sah-a-a

White petals fluttered in the wind that just blew…

The flowers of Leshanne, which she thought was beautiful before, were now like a cold snow storm pouring on her.

“It’s like the dragons are trying to use my power through you. Do I look so weak to you?” “

Jayna thought about what he had just said, and didn’t immediately understand who was doing what to whom.

It was such a ridiculous idea that she had to rethink it.

‘The Dragons’ trying to use me as bait to defeat Diamide?’

Of course, the words of Diamide are not true. She never heard anything from the dragons.

And even if they had given her a prior word, she never intended to move for them when she thought about the persecution she would receive from the dragons.

“That—”

But before Jayna answered, Diamide opened his mouth before she could answer.

“It’s the same for humans and dragons, trying to satisfy their desires and greed by using a child.”

It was a really crazy idea.

Jayna shook her head.

“You’re misunderstanding. Me and the dragon family—”

“Misunderstanding?”

Jayna shut her mouth at Diamide’s ridicule.

It would be nice to have clear evidence, but Jayna have no evidence to clear this deep misunderstanding.
