When I look the other way, he huffs and snorts with irritated eyes.
“Don’t you remember the barrier I put on that kid last time?”
“uh… … . Oh, that?”
“okay. That barrier was placed directly on the little boy’s heart, so the demonic energy will no longer flow out. “You can’t nullify the barrier.”
I blinked a couple of times at his confident words.
“I’m sure because I’ve done experiments.”
When did you conduct the experiment on Axion?
When I still looked suspicious, Dazar sighed softly and said.
“The barrier erected here prevents monsters from even recognizing ordinary humans.”
“Hmm.”
“Besides, as soon as they got out of the ‘rift’, they all headed towards me.”
huh? Are you heading to Dazar? When I tilted my head, he sighed as if he was annoyed and then continued speaking.
“So there’s no way there would be a monster going to the annex you’re in, much less even if you encountered it, you wouldn’t even recognize it. “Do you need more explanation?”
“no. I understand. But you never know.”
Then Dazar ruffled his hair and said as if he was throwing it away.
“If there is any danger to you or that little boy, I am the dog.”
I originally thought so, but it was a thought I couldn’t convey.
‘Hmm.’
After talking like that, it was very difficult for me to insist that I was going to leave. Because it was the same as denying his abilities.
Moreover, the transcendent person says this.
“all right. then.”
After thinking about it for a while, I shrugged my shoulders and nodded.
Speaking of the ‘crack day’ in the original work, do you think you’ll be catching monsters when you wake up?
I even felt the same excitement I felt on Christmas Eve when I was a child, excited about Santa coming.
It was a feeling that came from the thought that I was safe.
* * *
“You son of a bitch! No, dog! “Where’s the dog?”
And on the day of ‘Crack Day’, I decided to call Dazar a dog from now on.
“Ugh!”
As I was running down the hallway, I stopped when I saw a strange-looking monster that appeared as soon as I turned around the alley.
Wow! Why are his eyes like that?
I gasped in horror at the sight of the monster’s large eyeballs sticking out as if they were about to explode.
The monster looked at me and let out a strange breathing sound.
-Geeeeee… … .
I turned back and started running again.
I’ve only seen monsters in cartoons! Even Celia has never seen a monster before!
“omg… … omg… … .”
After running so long, a sweet smell came out of my mouth and I was out of breath, but I put a lot of pressure on my toes and kept running like crazy.
It was about 30 minutes ago that I decided to call Dazar a dog from now on.
It was when I woke up from sleep to a strange presence and realized that there was something strange in front of me.
A scene unfolded before my eyes that made me wonder if I was still in a dream or a nightmare.
The huge, vicious teeth were as dense as shark teeth, and the wide open mouth looked like it was going to swallow me at any moment.
The monster was on my bed with its mouth open.
“omg!”
My body froze for a moment at the unrealistic sight. As I was staring blankly at the approaching mouth, the person who woke me up was Axion, who was sleeping in the crib.
“crying… … . Ugh… … .”
Axion began to cry. I suddenly came to my senses and rolled sideways and fell to the floor.
‘Axion!’
I crawled and headed to where Axion was.
Rather than thinking about why the monster was in the annex or why it was targeting me, the only thought I had was that I had to protect Axion from the monster.
‘We must protect Axion!’
Just as I was about to attack Axion, I saw white energy rippling from Axion’s heart.
It was white, similar to the barrier that Dazar had walked through before.
“ah… … ?”
The energy tossed and moved as if it was fighting something.
Axion’s narrowed eyes turned purple, then returned to their original color again and again.
“mind… … mama… … .”
uh? Axion just… … .
For a moment, I thought he was calling me, but Axion became completely quiet.
He slowly closed his eyes and fell asleep.
A few minutes after that. I realized.
“Ugh, huh. Monsters only for me… … .”
The monster that rushed at me showed no interest in Axion. It acted as if it didn’t exist here, as if it was a closed space.
As I evaded the monster and made my way out, I came to a conclusion.
As Dazar said, there is a barrier placed on Axion that monsters cannot recognize.
‘The problem is me.’
I instinctively realized it. And as soon as that thought occurred to her, she ran out of the room in her pajamas.
On the contrary, my presence here could have been detrimental to Axion.
After running and running for 30 minutes to avoid the monsters, I arrived at the main building a little while ago.
My mind was confused.
‘what? It’s not like Axion contacted me. Why doesn’t the barrier only work on me?’
Even though I thought hard, I couldn’t come up with an answer.
“Heo-eok, heo-eok. Ha, I’m dying, yes.”
My white pajamas were tattered and dirty from falling on the floor and hitting obstacles.
I thought they must be catching monsters in the main building, but where on earth is Dazar?
While I was catching my breath while leaning against the wall, a large black thing suddenly crashed in front of me! fell off.
“omg!”
It was a much bloodier-looking monster than anything I had ever encountered.
‘shit.’
I tried to escape quickly, but the monster whirled! I couldn’t move because of the sound and the stretched flesh.
I wanted to free my captured wrist, but I couldn’t overcome the monster’s power. I started to be dragged towards that black monster.
“Ugh. This dog… … Bastard, where did you go? … !”
As I got closer to my nose, the monster opened its mouth.
“Dazar, you bastard!”
It felt like I was going to get chewed up by those bloody teeth at any moment. Then it will hurt a lot. shit! I don’t want to die here!
Right at that time when I was struggling and struggling.
A low voice was heard from behind.
“Wow, you curse well. I wondered where he went… … . “When did you get here?”
“omg. Dazaar!”
“Now I just call you by name.”
At the same time, a white circle flew out of his hand and landed on the monster. And as soon as it touches, the monster’s body explodes! It exploded with a sound.
I lost my balance and stumbled in front of the monster’s corpse that turned into ashes and scattered around. A strong body supported me from behind as if hugging me.
Contrary to the blunt voice he spoke a moment ago, his heart was beating violently against his back.
He was breathing heavily, as if he had been running for a while, and beads of sweat fell from the tip of his chin and onto my shoulder.
“… … “Here you go, dog.”
“eww… … . Ugh. What is this! “I told you you’d be okay!”
“okay. It should be okay… … . What’s going on here, ha. “I felt a strange wave and it turned out that the barrier was not working only on you.”
He hugged me tightly and let out a long sigh. As soon as the warmth touched me, all the strength went away from my tense body.
I slid all the way, relying on him with my entire body.
We ended up collapsing on the floor.
The hand I was holding tightly was trembling.
“I thought I was going to die.”
“okay.”
“You said nothing would happen.”
“that’s right.”
“You son of a bitch.”
“okay. I’m a dog therefore… … .”
He hesitated for a moment and then continued.
“So, stop crying.”
It was only then that I realized that the water drops falling to the floor were my tears.
After recognizing it, I was filled with emotions.
I almost died because of this bastard.
“Ugh, uhhh! I thought I was going to die… … I thought I was going to die! You bastard! So you said you would stay away! Ugh!”
You should have listened to Cedric!
When I started to cry, Dazar, who was holding me from behind as if to calm me down, made a groaning sound and whispered.
“okay. Here’s what I said… … . Take responsibility. “Order anything.”
“Sobbing… … . Is that really true?”
Dazar seemed quite embarrassed. As if he didn’t expect me to cry this much.
I wiped away the tears that were flowing down and held on to his collar tightly. Don’t let them run away.
“Then bark right away.”
“… … what?”
“If there’s any danger to me, you’ll tell me!” “Take responsibility!”
When I shouted out loud, Dazar said, “Ugh.” I let out a moan.
“That’s a bit…” … .”
“Something! “Didn’t you see that I almost died just now?”
Then he parted his lips as if he really, really, really had no choice.
“what… … Oh, no, damn it.”
He washed his face dry. Then he spoke softly.
“later. I’ll prepare my mind a little more later… … .”
In the end, it was a cowardly decision to put it off until later.
I sobbed triumphantly, looking at the indescribably humiliating face and gaping cheeks, as if I had already made a dog noise.
Only then did my anger towards him seem to melt away a little.
bad guy.
“great. Definitely later. Now, let me explain. “I wonder what happened.”
He muttered in a voice that was still tinged with tears.
