*Light swearing*

Hak's POV

As Yona touched the turquoise-haired girl, she collapses to her knees. I run over as do the other three guys, and I pick up the fainted girl and prop her against the wall. I sigh.

"Hime-sama, you can't make everyone just fall for you like that."

"Hak! I-It's not like I did any!" If only you knew what I truly meant....

Yoon then pushes through the forming crowd and rummages through his back for the right medical herbs. "Back off! Give her some spa-" He immediately recoiled after his hand made contact with her forehead.

"Yoon! Are you ok?" White snake asked.

"Y-Yeah...it's just....her skin.....she's ice cold. It gave me ice burn."

"How is that even possible??" I demanded.

"I-I don't know! It's an odd condition, but I know we need to bring her body temperature back up immediately! Or else she'll freeze!"

Seiryuu immediately stepped forward without a word and wrapped his fur piece around her. "She's shivering." He spoke quietly. All members of the group sweatdrop. "No shit." We all thought.

"She needs to be brought outside. The sun will help warm her up." With those words, he immediately scooped her up and hurried outside.

The villagers gasp at the unexpected move from the ever-feared blue dragon. They clearly didn't think he was capable of such kind actions. What fools they are to fear him because of his power.

We made our way outside and thought it was time for us to take our leave. We found who we were looking for, now was up to him to decide if he wants to join us. I leaned against the mountain wall with my arms crossed as I watched Yona smile and talk to Seiryuu. My heart couldn't help but be filled with jealousy, just as it did when she talked to that damn snake. God, I am truly beyond help.

After some talking, she got the blue dragon to join us on our adventure to acquire the help of the remaining two dragons. "Ano...." she began, looking down at the unconscious girl in the Seiryuu's arms. She then turned around to face the villagers and cocked her head to the side. "Is she one of yours?"

The chief shook his head. "No, she is a lone traveller. She came to our cave seeking shelter soon after you did." All eyes returned to her unmoving figure.

"We can't just leave her." White snake started. "Can we take her with us?" He said, looking at Yona for permission.

"Of course Kija, I am against leaving her here too."

"She needs medical attention, and that is something I can provide. I can heal her until she is well again, and then discuss other matters later." Yoon added.

"It's decided then." I concluded. "Let's get moving and not waste daylight hours." 

The group nodded and we gathered our belongings to resumed our journey. Before leaving, I saw the blue dragon bow to the villagers out of the corner of my eye. He then hurried to catch up with the rest. Why is he so kind to the villagers despite the way they treat him?

"Ok, so Kija..." Yoon said.

"Hmm?" Stupid snake hummed in response.

"In which direction is the green dragon?"

"He....He's......." then he fainted. Another one fainted.

"Rest in peace." I said, throwing a towel to cover his face, as I continued walking forward.

*Timeskip*

As the sun set below the horizon we set up a fire and made camp in the middle of the forest. I threw the snake's tired battered body into a tent. He groaned at the pain from inside the tent, which made Yona gasp and scolded me for treating him so poorly.

After the idiot fainted, Yona forced me to carry him as Seiryuu was carrying the still-unconscious girl. Instead of simply carrying him over my shoulder, I took the liberty of "accidentally" whacking his head on low hanging branches and "unintentionally" dropping him on the floor whenever we took any break. 

"Why did you have to do that to him?!" Yona asked angrily, her arms crossed and pretending to be madder than she actually is.

"Calm down, he's the Great White Dragon, isn't he? He'll live." I say nonchalantly. I pick up my halberd and skip off. "I'm going to look for firewood~~" I say, taking the opportune moment to escape one fuming hime-sama.

Meanwhile.....

Yoon's POV

The blue dragon came into the tent and laid the girl down for me to take care of. "Thank you, Seiryuu." He simply nodded and exited the tent. I turned my attention back to the girl, who hasn't woken up for a few hours. To be honest, I'm worried about her condition. I've never seen or read anything like this in the medical book Ik Soo gave me. "Eehhh, you sure are out cold, aren't you...." I say to no one in particular as I tend to the girl. Brushing her hair away from her face, I could see her lightly-dusted rosy cheeks from being cold, and I blush. I readjust the furry blanket on her as I finish. At least her temperature's back to normal...thanks to Seiryuu.... I then leave the girl to rest as I make preparations for tonight's dinner.
