“Huh… … .”

An absurd laugh escaped Ha-jun’s mouth.

Once Emma and Lane were brought back into the house.

A few seconds after seeing Hajun, Rain suddenly raised his hands and expressed his intention to surrender.

Still, I thought I should listen, so I left the other four outside and brought Rain home.

Of course, Emma was still on guard, pointing her pistol at Lane.

In the end, Lane raised his hand in a calm manner, expressing his intention to surrender.

Should I say I’m relaxed?

Of course, you won’t be able to suppress her with bullets in the first place.

“So why did you break out?”

Hajun looked at her and asked.

She lowered her hands and opened her mouth, clutching the hot dog in her mouth.

“I’ll talk to you when the president of the association comes.”

“?!”

It was Emma who was taken aback by those words.

Emma and Hajun’s eyes met.

Emma was shaking her head at Hajun.

Hajun said to Emma.

“I’ll call the president of the association first.”

“But Irregular… … .”

“It’s okay because I’ll be by your side.”

“… … .”

Emma didn’t respond to his words, but she seemed to agree.

Well, there’s an irregular in front of you, so what were you worried about?

Thinking back, it was Emma who felt that she was shabby as she was wary of Lane with a pistol. Emma put down her pistol and called the president.

“Yes, president of the association. that… … .”

After a few minutes of contact like that.

A gate opened in front of Ha-jun’s house, and Andro, the president of the association, appeared with a nervous face. He arrived in front of Ha-Jun’s house and knocked, and Ha-Jun let him into the house.

“It really was… … .”

And when Andro saw Rain, a feeling of bewilderment began to appear on Andro’s face.

The seat is now made.

The four sat around the table and looked at Lane.

“Now, tell me.”

Why bother yourself by jailbreaking?

Hajun stared at Rain with cold eyes and questioned him.

Reign, who was looking at Hajun with calm eyes at the question, slowly opened his mouth.

“Irregular.”

“yes?”

“One of the kings has appeared.”

At those words, Emma and Andro, the president of the association, made puzzled expressions, not knowing what they meant, and only Hajun narrowed his eyes and made a serious expression.

Hajun looked at her and asked again.

“A king appeared?”

“Leanon said. The king is coming to him.”

Hearing that, Hajun still had a serious expression on his face, but the president of the association, Andro, who didn’t understand, only had a questionable expression on his face.

He looked at Ha-joon and asked cautiously.

“What are you talking about… … ?”

“At that time, a monster of the same level as that sea beast was aiming for Lane.”

Andro was stunned and shocked by that statement.

“Are you sure?”

Of course, Hajun could not easily answer such a question.

How do I know if he is lying?

Upon hearing such suspicion, her pupils instantly turned into dragon eyes.

Dragon King Leanon.

Leanon, who suddenly took Lane’s body, opened his mouth while looking at Hajun.

-That’s true, otherwise there’s no reason to break out.

At those words, Hajun thought deeply about something for a while before opening his mouth.

“Which king is he?”

-This is Hermors, the king of the elves. He had located Lane and was coming towards him.

“Why is he targeting Lane?”

Hajun looked at Leanon and asked.

To that question, Leanon answered meekly.

– Dragon jade.

“… … ?”

– He must be aiming for the dragon jade.

Before asking what it was, Pilaten explained to Hajun.

– Dragon jade is like the heart of dragons. It is the source of dragons’ magical power. King Hermors of the Elves is a race that deals with the origins of magic along with dragons.

Hajun nodded as he listened to Pilaten’s explanation.

Only then did I understand why she had to break out so suddenly.

In a sense, she must have been right.

Considering the power of the kings that Hajun had seen so far, mankind would not be able to match them. It would be the same even for Leanon, who was now sealed.

“Then why did you come here?”

First of all, that’s it, and Ha-jun asked why he bothered to visit someone else’s house.

When he asked such a question, Lane, who had a dissatisfied look at Leanon, who lost his dragon face again and took his body, answered Hajun’s question.

“Leanon told me to go find you.”

“… … ?”

“Even kings say they can’t touch you hastily.”

At that, Ha-joon made a really annoying expression.

It feels like a burden has been lifted.

No, it’s not a feeling, it’s probably a fact.

“Then the promise will be good, right?”

Even so, Lane was speaking with a calm expression as if an iron plate had been put on her face.

In other words, he was going to take care of my house.

But even knowing that, Hajun kept an annoyed expression and asked back.

“so what.”

“I’ll take care of you.”

I knew it, but I couldn’t manage my expression when I heard it from my own mouth.

It was Hajun who made a face and made a very annoying expression.

However, even if Hajun thought about it, there was no way.

The power of the kings is too menacing to leave him alone.

“It sucks-”

Thinking of that, Hajun licked his lips in regret.

In the end, there was no way.

Of course, that’s it, and shouldn’t we get permission first?

Hajun looked at the president of the association.

The president of the association, Andro, who had been listening to the story until now, was thinking deeply about something.

Except for a few unfamiliar words, you should understand the situation once.

“They seem to have higher intelligence than I thought. I understand what you mean.”

Andro, the president of the association, could understand most of the conversation.

To be honest, it was a bit unimaginable.

Of course, at that time, if they were able to speak a language like that sea water, have a certain level of intelligence, and have knowledge that mankind does not know, it was a part that could clearly understand that they had a purpose.

And in the process, the fact that Lane’s life is being threatened.

‘I’ll have to raise my guard a little more…’ … .’

Originally, the level of alert for that monster or sea beast was extremely high, but if they had intentions that were harmful to mankind, including intelligence, the association had to raise the level of risk in a different direction.

It was simply saying that he had overcome the situation where he had to be wary of their power.

The direction so far has been the main purpose of subjugation for the safety of citizens in the same direction as other monsters, monsters, and sea water, but now it is said that the level of danger should be defined and the level of alert should be raised in a direction similar to that of villains.

So, despite being rude, the president of the association, Andro, had no choice but to get on his knees and ask Hajun.

“Sorry, Irregular.”

“… … ?”

“Can I please?”

“President of the association!”

At that, Emma was shocked and called to Andro.

But Andro shook his head and opened his mouth to Emma.

“Whether what Lane says is true or not, there is no better option than this.”

“but… … .”

Andro’s words were not wrong.

Rain, whether or not her words were true, the fact that she would eventually stand by Ha-joon’s side of her own will was, in a sense, the most reassuring part.

Of course, in a way, he was passing the burden on to the irregular, with whom he had a good relationship, so he might fall out with the irregular, but he couldn’t think of a better way.

“I’ll give you any reward, so could you watch over Lane for a while?”

He said it was a nominal surveillance, but in a way, he meant to protect Lane.

It was Andro, the president of the association, who was thinking of handing over one of America’s national treasures if he wanted to.

Of course, it might seem strange to ask someone to monitor criminals like this, but considering the relationship between Rain and Andro, the president of the association, it wasn’t that strange.

“under… … , Yes. I know.”

Of course, even if Andro, the president of the association, didn’t ask for it, he was going to listen.

There is also a contract with Rain, and Hajun’s goal is to kill all the kings anyway.

Rain’s power is not indispensable, but as Ha-jun, who doesn’t yet know exactly the power of kings, she needs her help, or exactly Leanon’s help.

* * *

After receiving permission from Hajun, Andro, the president of the association, left Hajun’s house because he had something to say to Rain.

Andro, the president of the association, looked at Lane, who stood next to him, before opening his mouth.

“… … Thank you.”

At that sudden gratitude, Lane’s eyes widened and soon narrowed thinly.

“What do you mean?”

“Rain, because many people have survived thanks to you.”

It was Lane who narrowed her eyes even more at those words.

However, Andro, the president of the association, knew.

Why did she escape from prison?

“If Lane hadn’t escaped, many people there would have died.”

I don’t know if what she said is still true or not.

However, if her words were true, it was clear that a great disaster would strike the place where Lane was.

It is clear that this would have caused many casualties.

“Anyway, there were no casualties from it.”

“… … .”

“Thank you… … .”

Hearing that, Lane’s expression gradually sank as if he was in deep thought.

To be honest, Andro, as he said, Lane thought about that before he escaped, even if only slightly.

As long as the monster called the ‘king’ was aiming for him, he would have no choice but to attack the place, so many people would have died.

It wasn’t that the idea was the focus of the prison break, but somehow it happened.

In the end, the people who were there because of his escape were bought.

At that time, he couldn’t understand why he had such a thought in an instant, so Lane only responded to Andro’s answer.

“I… … , I just escaped to live.”

To that answer, Andro replied with a light smile.

“Whether you intended it or not, in the end many people lived without damage. I’m just grateful for that, Lane.”

“… … .”

Lane’s emotions were a little shaken by such an answer.

It was a truly unanswerable, gut-wrenching feeling.

I was just in a bad mood, so I had no choice but to frown.

Andro, who had been quietly gazing at Lane’s expression for a while, opened his mouth.

“Then I’ll go.”

With those words, Emma came out at just the right time and stood next to Andro, the president of the association.

Andro, the president of the association, looked at Emma and opened his mouth.

“Emma.”

“Yes, president of the association.”

“This situation is confidential. It’s a situation that only you and I know about.”

“All right.”

And it was Ha-joon who came out with Emma to see them off.

Andro, the president of the association, looked at Hajun and respectfully lowered his head and opened his mouth.

“Then, I’d like to ask for Lane.”

“Yes.”

It was a polite greeting, as if entrusting a child.

Of course, he was still making an annoyed expression, but Hajun nodded at the words of the president of the association.

“Then we’re done.”

With those words, it was Andro who prepared to go over the gate.

Before moving on, Emma was carefully examining her surroundings.

He’s probably looking for those four people who came with Rain.

However, when he hid himself, he was not seen after the president of the association came.

Emma sighed and followed Andro, the president of the association, bowing her head and crossing the gate.

when the two of them disappeared.

“Are you gone?”

It was four people who opened the gate again and appeared.

They peeked their faces out at the gate, looked around carefully, and sighed when they confirmed that Andro, the president of the association, had disappeared.

Soon, one of the four, Mila, looked at Lane and opened her mouth.

“under… … , Is it resolved well for now, Captain?”

“yes.”

“Then we will go. Call me if anything happens.”

“i get it.”

I don’t know anything else, but can I just leave these guys alone? It was Hajun who thought of this.

Even if they look like that, they are all criminals.

Then I just got bored and left it alone.

It was because if I messed with these guys for no reason, my current relationship with Rain could be ruined.

Anyway, I need her help.

At that time, a little boy who was sticking his face out from beyond the gate came out of the gate and approached Hajun.

The other three were stunned by the sight, but Eli, who was approaching Hajun, casually lowered his head toward Hajun and opened his mouth.

“Take care of Rain.”

“… … .”

Hajun didn’t answer, but it was Ellie who didn’t answer and disappeared over the gate again.

“Uh, huh? That… … , For now, then we’ll be on our way. Bye!”

With those words, it was the four people who hid their faces behind the gate and disappeared.

Afterwards, when only Hajun and Rain were left, a quiet silence flowed.

The two went inside the house without a conversation, and after Hajun entered the house, he looked at the kitchen for a while, then turned his head toward Lane and opened his mouth.

“First… … .”

“… … ?”

“Do some chores.”
