10:9

Brun's tangled and complicated emotions lasted for a very long time, so long that even when Mu Xingchen woke up in his arms, he still stood by the river in the same posture, his mind filled with the scene of him and Mu Xingchen entangled in the afternoon, and the next moment, the scene of himself being hanged.

The huge trees by the river blocked out the sun and the moonlight. Brun couldn't see anything in such darkness. He didn't even know that the person in his arms had woken up.

Mu Xingchen raised his head and stared at Brun for a while. He blushed when he looked at her, then he leaned forward and rubbed the man's chin. He then reached out and poked Brun's shoulder, and asked in a low voice, "Why have you been standing like this all the time?"

Mu Xingchen's voice pulled Brun out of his tangled mood. He lowered his head, but couldn't see the boy in his arms clearly. "Have you slept enough?"

"Uh-huh."

Brun's arm had become numb and almost unconscious due to maintaining the same posture for a long time. When he put Mu Xingchen on the ground, the nerves in his arm seemed to suddenly come alive, and a numbness like a thousand ants gnawing at his heart instantly spread through his arm.

"hiss……"

Mu Xingchen quickly reached out to rub Brun's arm, and waited until his frowning brows relaxed before asking, "Do you want to go home?"

go home?

Yes, it’s his own dragon, and that’s also his home.

Brun hummed, stopping Mu Xingchen from wanting to turn into a dragon and carry him back. He squatted down by the river to wash his face, fumbled in his bag to take out a tinderbox, lit it, and handed it to Mu Xingchen, "Here."

Mu Xingchen just reached out to take the tinder when he saw Brun squatting in front of him. He was stunned for two seconds before realizing that Brun was going to carry him. His eyebrows and eyes were instantly filled with a happy smile. He threw himself on the man's strong back, holding the tinder in one hand and holding Brun's shoulders with the other, and said happily: "Let's go home!"

Hearing the boy's joyful voice, Brun's worries and anxieties about the future seemed to ease a little. He was also infected and smiled helplessly, "I really don't know how you survived."

I really don't know! I'm just a wild dragon that came along!

Every time this topic was brought up, Mu Xingchen could only laugh it off. Fearing that Brun would continue to ask, he quickly changed the subject, "My nest is in this forest. Do you want to go and have a look?"

Ten minutes later, Mu Xingchen, who had been flying around in the forest with Brun, fell back to the ground awkwardly and turned into a human. With a red face, he took the clothes from Brun and put them on, while explaining in a low voice, "I haven't been back for too long, and I kind of forgot where I am."

It was true that he had not been back for a long time, and it was also true that he had forgotten the direction of the nest. However, Mu Xingchen felt that he could not be blamed for not remembering where the nest was. After all, he had only been back once since he came to this small world!

"… Let's go home."

Carrying Mu Xingchen on his back and walking to the gravel-covered path, Brun looked back at the forest behind him and walked towards the town with helplessness and complicated feelings. He knew very well that after what happened in the forest today, his life in the future would definitely change drastically.

At least... I shouldn't simply look at Mu Xingchen as a dragon anymore.

Back home.

After putting Mu Xingchen on the ground, Brune casually placed the bag full of things to go out at the door, glanced at Mu Xingchen's bare feet, and said, "Go to bed first. I'll buy you some clothes and shoes tomorrow. We'll leave for Las City early the day after tomorrow."

"Ah? Are you leaving so soon?" We haven't had a good look around yet.

Mu Xingchen felt a little disappointed, but when he thought about traveling to other cities with Brun soon, he became happy again, "Well, do you want to buy some cushions?"

Brun wondered, "Why buy a cushion?"

"My scales are too hard. I'm afraid your butt will hurt if you sit on it."

Brun: “…”

Seeing that Mu Xingchen was serious and really thought that he was going to buy some cushions, Brun was helpless and amused, "No, we'll go over there on horseback."

The next morning, Mu Xingchen went shopping barefoot on Brun's back. As soon as he entered the shoe store, the owner came up to him warmly, "Dear Mr. Brun, welcome!"

After greeting Brun, the boss looked at Mu Xingchen with a smile on his face and said in a friendly manner: "Welcome to Mr. Brun's little guy as well. I'm sorry, I don't know your name."

Mu Xingchen pointed at his mouth with a red face and said "ah" twice, indicating that he was a mute and could not speak, so he could not tell his name. But he was actually quite satisfied with Lord Brun's name of "little guy". After all, one could tell he was the dragon of the Brun family as soon as he heard it!

"His name is Mu Xingchen. Find him some shoes to wear."

The boss immediately became busy and happy. He first measured Mu Xingchen's feet, and then put out almost all the shoes in the store that Mu Xingchen could wear. While standing by and watching Mu Xingchen try on shoes, he almost never stopped praising her.

Mu Xingchen blushed at the praise and could hardly stand such an attack. He quickly picked up his two pairs of shoes and walked in front of Brun.

"Just these two pairs?"

nod.

"Pick a pair and put them on."

Facing the boss's passionate gaze, Mu Xingchen bent down to put on his shoes, tugged at Brun's clothes, and indicated that he wanted to stay outside the store.

"Okay, wait for me outside."

As soon as Mu Xingchen walked out the door, the boss laughed and joked, "Mr. Brun, your little partner is so cute."

Brun shook his head and wanted to explain, but the words couldn't come out of his mouth. Although the stupid dragon was not a human being, they had had two intimate contacts after all. If the first time was rape, then the second time... should it be considered as consensual incest, right?

The most intimate things have been done.

What else could they be if not partners?

But can a human really become a partner with a dragon? Even if Mu Xingchen is acting harmless now, he is a notorious dragon after all. Maybe one day he will find it boring to be with humans and destroy a human town at will?

As for using the contract to kill Mu Xingchen...

Brun had to admit that he couldn't do it now. During the hours he spent by the river last night, he had thought about killing the dragon directly to eliminate the trouble once and for all, but in the end he was unable to carry out those ideas.

Brunn accepted the boss's name for Mu Xingchen and silently took out his wallet. "How much?"

After paying the money, Brun walked out of the door carrying the other pair of shoes that he had packed. Seeing the young man with a blush still on his face happily coming to greet him, he couldn't help but think of how the silly dragon grabbed his clothes when he was leaving the house just now, and told him shyly that it was uncomfortable to move around without underwear, and he couldn't help but curl his lips.

It took nearly three hours to buy daily necessities for Mu Xingchen as well as dry food, medicine, etc. needed for the journey. At this moment, Mu Xingchen was holding Brun's clothes tightly, with his head down, staring silently at his new shoes.

Just now they finished buying everything and came to buy horses for transportation. As soon as they reached the door, they ran into a few dragon slayers. Although they had never killed a dragon, they had fought with giant dragons. The aura on their bodies made Mu Xingchen feel afraid instinctively.

If Brun hadn't been standing next to him, he would have wanted to turn into a dragon and fly away.
