Chapter 186: Side Story 23
Crash, Bang!
A small pub in the city was completely demolished.
By the Black Dragon, it was thoroughly wrecked.
Ugh!
The face of the pub owner, who had been watching the scene, turned pale.
My, my shop!
Kalexia, who was licking his lips, tapped the absent-minded pub owners shoulder and spoke.
Dont worry. Ill rebuild it completely anew.
Excuse me? W-Who are you
You could say Im their benefactor.
Kalexia casually replied, giving a mischievous smile to the pub owner.
Once again, his gaze shifted towards Drea, who appeared like a Black Dragon amidst the ashes and dust.Fôll0w current novÊls on n/o/(v)/3l/b((in).(co/m)
That child was surprised by what happened, so dont hold any grudges. Ill compensate enough.
Yes? What does that
Kalexia, who saw the pub owners confusion, patted his shoulder once more and raised his other hand.
Tap.
When their fingers collided, a breeze began to blow from somewhere.
Shortly after, the elemental spirits of wind swept away the surrounding dirt, dust, and smoke and disappeared.
Tap.
When Kalexia tapped his finger again, this time the earth spirits appeared and cleared away the scattered debris on the ground.
People murmured in astonishment.
Among them, some wondered if they recognized Kalexia.
Kalexia smiled at them and turned his gaze back to Drea and Shaik.
Oh, my.
In the blink of an eye, Drea was shaking the man who had thrust a knife at Shaikhs face and the man who had kicked Shaikh with both hands.
How dare you! Who! Where! Aaah!
Drea let out a roar like a true ferocious dragon.
The surrounding area trembled at the sound.
The two men who had already been held by Drea had long since lost consciousness.
In her heart, she wanted to chew them up and spit them out, but she restrained herself.
After knocking out the two men held by Drea, she grabbed two other trembling men.
And she shook them just as vigorously, instilling fear.
Without a doubt, the men fainted without even a gasp.
But Dreas anger wasnt relieved by this level of punishment.
Drea shook the five men in her hands with both hands, vigorously shaking them.
You bastards! If you ever do something like this again, Ill chase you down, cut off your limbs, and turn you into dust! You bastards! You scum!
The faces of the men who had already fainted turned even paler.
Drea.
With a gentle voice, something touched Dreas firm instep.
Startled, Drea looked down to see Shaik, who had grabbed her ankle.
Drea.
Shaik called her name again, embracing her ankle.
This was the first time it happened.
Of course, showing her true form as an adult was also a first, but aside from that, Shaik approaching her and embracing her like this was also a first.
Thanks to that, her hands that were shaking the men stopped.
Drea stared at Shaik with rigid, trembling eyes.
There was no need to use them, and he didnt want to attract attention by showing them off.
But now, he didnt realize how fortunate he was to have these wings.
With his sparkling wings, Shaik flew up.
Shaik!
Kalia called out her sons name as she attempted to leap forward.
Smiling widely, she waved her hand and spoke.
Ill handle things behind, so you take care of Drea. Got it?
Shaik, who glanced at his mother, nodded with a smile.
With a powerful flap of his wings in the direction Drea had flown, he soared off.
In an instant, the gusts of wind washed away the dust and revealed Dreas natural white aura, mingled with Shaiks distinct blue aura, as they soared through the sky.
Those noisy guys, really.
Kalia grumbled, shaking her head, and Kalexia smiled and nodded.
Oh, by the way, Kalexia.
What shocking story are you going to tell me this time, Sun God?
The Sun God chuckled calmly towards Kalexias questioning gaze, as if he was annoyed.
Well, you see, that childs pair wasnt on the list of reincarnations. But I purposely brought that child from another world. They missed each other so much. So, well, I just let them meet again.
What?
That kid should know about my benevolence Anyway, I hope the two children can be happy together this time.
The Sun God spoke in a playful manner, chuckling to himself.
I hope they dont fail to recognize each other and end up digging holes in the ground. If they dont recognize each other, that kid is really a complete idiot
Kalexia chuckled wryly, imagining the sound of the gods laughter in his ears.
Fortunately, it seems that kid isnt a complete idiot after all, Sun God.
Hopefully today, they will recognize each other.

Shaik reached out his hand.
Drea seemed within reach, yet still distant.
Just a little more just a little more
Realizing that her body, like her wings, had grown larger and was hindering her speed, Drea instantly transformed her appearance.
Keeping her wings as they were, Drea humanoidized her body and glanced back to see Shaik, who had chased her closely.
Startled, she flapped her wings even harder and flew.
Wait, Drea! I have something to say!
Not now! I dont want to hear anything right now!
Drea, please! Please!
Although Shaik pleaded, Drea shook her head as if she really didnt want to listen.
With a determined look, Shaik flapped his wings harder.
At the same time, dozens of elemental spirits of wind sent by Kalexia gathered around him.
The wind spirits, taking various forms, looked at each other before blowing wind towards Shaik.
Some of them blew wind in the opposite direction towards Drea.
!
Suddenly, as the wind blew in reverse, Dreas speed drastically decreased.
Simultaneously, Shaiks wings gained acceleration.
Shaik smiled with gratitude towards the wind spirits, who had been chirping among themselves, disappeared.
Shaik moved his wings even more forcefully.
Desperately, he reached out his hand towards Drea.
Higher, higher. Just a little more!
Finally, Shaik caught up to Drea.
His outstretched hands swiftly pulled Dreas body into an embrace.
