A Dragon That My Cat Brought Home - Chapter 31: to relocate

Director Yoo continued with a pleasant smile.

“Actually, when I only heard about the material, I wasn’t that drawn to it. Dragons are a very common subject in fantasy novels and movies, so it’s a bit boring. It’s not a novel from our Silver Books, but was there a dragon in Short Pencil’s previous works?”

Yes, there was.

“If you look at the titles of fantasy novels on the market right now, there are dozens of dragons. So, I was a little worried. Even with common ingredients, the taste of food changes depending on who cooks it, but this work is very well prepared. The four mythical beasts also make it interesting.”

Whenever Director Yoo smiled, the softly wrinkled corners of his eyes seemed to be visible.

“You sign a contract with us. I will be very happy to be able to work with you again.”

“thank you. I also looked forward to working with the manager again.”

– Flap flap.

“Blue dragon, blue dragon, don’t stay over there, come this way.”

I quickly brought the blue dragon into the room, who was floating around the window, fluttering and fiddling with the blinds.

I need to decide where to move soon. I liked the room I saw the day before yesterday, and it’s good that it’s not too far from my sister’s hospital.

It is reluctant that our neighborhood was exposed to the person Ho-Jun Lee – although his real name would not be – or that a couple in an apartment across the street saw a blue dragon, but one of the biggest reasons for wanting to move quickly is because of the window.

The house is on the first floor, so I can’t leave the windows open. Due to the structure of our villa, there is no window that can be seen from the other side, and it is difficult for people to approach outside the window, but I am still concerned.

An opaque film is also applied to the windows and the blinds are always down, but after the blue dragon has wings, he often plays pranks on the window, so it’s not uneasy.

Our Blue Dragon can’t even take us outside, but it’s so sad that we can’t open a window blind.

In the meantime, it was winter, so it was okay to keep the windows closed, but now spring is coming, isn’t it?

I won the prize money from the contest, and I am in the process of signing a webtoon contract with SS Media, and my situation has improved a lot since I signed a contract with Silver Books. I’m trying to find a place to move with peace of mind, but it’s not as easy as I thought.

I am choosing a place that has a high floor, security is good, and there is no window that can be seen from the opposite side, but it was difficult to find a place that fits within my budget.

Hae-in asked him to come into his studio, but it was different from when we were living together in college, so I couldn’t do it willingly. I have Ain now, and above all, if I take the blue dragon, the kids won’t even be able to bring a friend home, so I can’t cause such a nuisance.

Raising dragon hatchlings in a single room is difficult in many ways. To raise an animal that can only be raised as a lord of a castle with a large manor in such a stuffy place.

As I washed my face with a sorry heart, a blue dragon flew over and pulled my hair straight.

“Aww, you naughty boy!”

When he raised his hand, the blue dragon rumbled and flew away, but was quickly caught by my hand. After getting hit with his finger on the bridge of his nose, he rubbed his nose with his front paws and pretended to cry, but then he rumbled again and fluttered in front of me as if to grab me.

Chasing and being chased by the blue dragon, there are things that are good because it is a single room. You can catch them faster.

“Piyaang~”

The blue dragon caught in my hand while running away flapped his wings like a pigeon with legs tied, but his face was smiling. Baek-ho is looking at us with the expression of a father looking at two immature children.

I hope that peace will continue like this.

Ring ring! Ring ring!

“Hello, ah, hello, sister.”

It was a call from my editor noona who worked at Catdog Life.

“How are you, Myung-hoon? The last time I called you, you asked me to call you, because I knew something about the magazine’s Feline, Ho-Jun Lee, right? It may not be anything special, but I heard something, so I called.”

“Yes Yes. Thank you. Anything is fine, please let me know.”

“I got a call from someone at Catdog Life. I went to the parrot, but why isn’t the magazine coming out?”

“A parrot interview?”

“There are people who have blue-feathered parrots called Blue Quakers. But recently, a parrot with a particularly deep blue color appeared. I heard somewhere that the magazine Feline was receiving reports of blue animals, and when I reported it via e-mail, it was reported that a person named Ho-Jun Lee came out.”

“When will that be?”

“About a month? But after I went to the interview, there was no contact, no magazines, and the contact information was only an email, so I guess I called Catdog Life. Because that person is talking about a magazine affiliated with Catdog Life.”

“Oh yes, thank you. sister. Thanks for letting me know.”

It’s been a month, so it’s almost the same time he first came to me. You must have gone to check it out? I guess I’ll have to move soon.

I moved a little earlier than planned. It is on the 5th floor of a 6-story villa close to my sister’s hospital, and it is a house with one room besides the living room. It was necessary to be able to put the blue dragon in the room when someone unexpectedly came, so I chose a house with a separate room and living room.

“It’s fine here, I don’t want anyone to see inside even if I leave the window open.”

“That’s the most important thing, so I went around a lot to find this angle.”

“It was okay to come home. Whatever it is, you made a good choice. There is an elevator, and it is much better to have a security device at the entrance on the first floor than at home. It is worthwhile to write Short Pencil’s work hard.”

Hae-in, who came to help with the move, also nodded to see if the house looked okay.

I wondered if it would be difficult for the white tiger and the blue dragon to adapt because the environment had changed, but on the first day, they were a little unfamiliar and explored every nook and cranny, and on the second day they seem to have already adapted.

“Blue dragon, you can’t eat those leaves, you’re not eating them.”

“Beep beep lol~”

The flowerpot that was sent to me as a moving gift from my sister’s hospital was strange, so it flew around the flowerpot like a hummingbird. This plant is not harmful to cats, but is it okay for baby dragons? Either way, don’t eat it.

To commemorate the move, the sofa that I bought with a big heart became a reserved seat for Baek-ho, and it was nice to be able to set up Blue Dragon’s swimming pool with plenty of room. You can even open windows!

Although there is a screen and a lattice grate installed, it is really nice to be able to roll the blinds and open the windows without getting nervous like when you live on the first floor.

As I stood by the window and breathed in the fresh air, the blue dragon flew out like a bird and sat on my shoulder. Imitating myself, I breathe in the air to the fullest. be cute

It’s all thanks to you guys that the writing turned out so well that I was able to move in. I’ll write harder so that hyung can live in a bigger house later.

I rubbed my cheeks against the heads of Blue Dragon and White Tiger in turn.

“Nyay~”

Baek-ho tapped my shoulder as if praising with his front paw.

The landscape is hazy as if foggy, and there are long rows of columns with antique patterns on both sides. Somewhere like a corridor in a large castle, I am walking through that corridor.

It seems like it has been called back into that dream after a long time. I’m pretty used to it now, so I looked around without being surprised. To the right, there is a wall lined with veils, and to the left, a place like a castle’s courtyard can be seen through the pillars.

The pillars are dizzyingly high, and the walking corridor is also wide enough for a wagon to pass through. A man was walking in front of me.

It’s quite far away and you can only see the back, but she’s dressed unfamiliar. He wore an oddly shaped hat on his head, and his trousers were narrow, and he wore something like an elongated tunic over it.

I was walking after him. This is the first time I have seen a person in this dream. What kind of person are you?

The veil was lifted from the front wall, and a man came out and walked this way. Although the distance was not so great that the features were recognizable, I was momentarily flinched and startled. He stopped quickly, leaned against the wall, and looked into the eyes of those in front.

The new man nodded his head lightly to the one walking in front of me without paying any attention to me, then slipped through the pillars and disappeared into the outer courtyard.

Am I invisible to people here? If so, you might want to take a closer look. I walked faster to close the distance with the person in front of me.

When they got close enough to see the intricate patterns on the back of the clothes, the corridor broke and the person in front turned around the corner.

I saw the side profile of the person I called Lee Ho-jun. It was like that too, it seemed like it was.

At first glance, the skin color was different from the last time we met, and the impression was very different, but it was clear that it was Lee Ho-jun. That’s right, he was also from this world.

It seemed to him that I was invisible at all. But where is he going?

Ho-jun Lee turned the corner once more and entered the building. I cautiously followed him in, up the wide stairs, and through the hallways. At the end of the long hallway, a large hall-like space suddenly popped out, and a tall and large door appeared on the opposite wall. Ho-jun Lee walked towards the door.

As I was walking after him, I stopped and stood up. Inside that door, I could feel the damp and cool energy I had felt outside the cave last time waiting for me. It was much clearer than the sense of alienation that Ho-jun Lee felt as if passing by at first glance, and it was a powerful energy that made me shudder.
