Tiger’s Tears
red apple.
and hot tea.
Neither the body of the dragon, which knew neither cold nor heat, demanded neither. Ordinary people would drink tea to warm themselves up when they come in from a place that is too cold, but the girl took a sip. And immediately put down the teacup.
write. This is just bitter water. The tea was originally drunk with the scent, but the scent wasn’t really my taste. With high-quality tea leaves brought from the imperial family, our tea did not impress the girl at all.
Is this really delicious? He did not feel any special attraction, and turned his gaze to an apology.
‘apologize…’
Likewise, the dragon’s body showed no interest in apples. But the human mind is different. The girl reached out and grabbed the apple. I stared at him for a while without eating.
‘Really, sorry.’
Unknowingly, he whimpered. Even a mother who was not like her mother, who was more concerned with drugs and parties than her embryonic daughter, sometimes showed interest in her daughter.
When I saw the hungry child, I would throw an apple that was just open on the tree. An unpeeled apple. But for a hungry child, it was really tasty.
I’m not hungry now, but I took a bite of the apple. it was yummy. It was as delicious as the apple a hungry child ate in a hurry.
Eating the apple, the girl sobbed. He never really wanted much. Who even wished to have a dragon’s heart and a half-dragon’s body?
Just like everyone else.
life like others.
Growing up with warm parents, I wanted to live a life of making friends.
A cruel fate did not allow him to do anything. He gave me a strong power that I didn’t want, whether it was a substitute or not.
The strength to face monsters beyond their weight class. And a breath that can’t be ripped apart. I mean, who would have wanted something like this?
After chewing the tear-soaked apple to the seeds, I felt a little better then.
swish!
He carefully set the plate down, opened the window and scattered the remaining tea. I knew it was polite to drink all the tea I was served, but I wasn’t in the mood to put bitter water in my throat right now.
Should I say it instead, I made an empty glass by throwing it outside. He carefully set down the empty glass and empty plate, and flew out the window and spread his wings. I looked down at the hut for a while from the air.
The girl still needed time. Time to face and overcome your past.
It is faster to overcome together than to do it alone. But it was never possible. The past not only darkened her present, but it also took away her ability to shape the future.
Now it was difficult to do something together. The girl didn’t like being alone, but she liked being alone.
He thought maybe he was already crazy, but he was already too twisted. Now it’s too late to return to what everyone says is normal.
Flutter!
She left the house and flew away. Now I will follow you again, keeping a distance.
Even with dragon-like powers, she was still a child.
*****
The half-naked man, with his hands and feet bound, fell down, covered in blood. Wriggling like a caterpillar, he struggled to survive. But his eyes were already full of despair.
“Sister… please, don’t do this. help me…”
He tried desperately to appeal, but he didn’t even think that this appeal would actually work. In his eyes, that white-haired woman was like a devil. Indeed it is. That woman is crazy.
“If even I die, the good people will lose their money. That’s how my sister saved me. In preparation for the disappearance of my sister’s fiancée, the race called Hoin.”
“It was.”
“You don’t want a child, sister? our baby huh? My sister always said she wanted to have children at least once.”
“right. It was.”
The woman muttered expressionlessly. Like a person without emotions.
“But unfortunately, Eric. The problem is that the only tigers left in this world are you and me.”
The man trembled. it’s not horror For this moment, anger overwhelms fear. Who made all of this happen, and why did you say it so calmly? As if nothing happened?
Who killed all of his people except himself? It is pure whim that he has survived. He left one man in case he wanted to have children.
not human Not the other beasts. Not even the environment. The main culprit of the extinction of the tiger was no one else, but that woman.
And now, on some whim, she wants to kill herself even though she doesn’t have children.
The last good man, Eric, wanted to live. If you die, you are also killed as an individual, but the good people will also die.
If Epirna self-fertilizes like a mushroom, there is no other chance that it will happen until the sky falls. When he dies, the tiger goes extinct.
“What are you talking about? Is that what I mean?”
“Not different. different. Eric. Do I still look like a tiger?”
The woman whispered. Then he bit his ear.
The pinna was torn, and blood was oozing out. The man didn’t even feel pain. I was too busy thinking about what I had just heard.
“As a tiger… can you see it? What if my sister isn’t a tiger? Are you going to deny your ethnicity now?”
“What do you do with snow? I can’t see even with my eyes open. It’s really inconvenient. This sister is already a monster. Now the only tiger left is you.”
Thin, fine fingers pointed lightly at Eric’s eyes. Then he stabbed him.
The man screamed. Now he couldn’t see any more.
“A man like you doesn’t deserve to see me.”
“I… I am your fiance. It was decided by the clan!”
The man screamed in pain, crying tears of blood. I heard a whisper in my ear.
“Why do I need a mate or a child? I just want to enjoy eternal life. Eric. Eric. My stupid fiance. Now, even if you survive, the tiger will go extinct anyway.”
“Dirty bitch! The shame of the clan! Is there no such thing as racial pride?”
“Tigers are inferior to monsters.”
The woman whispered. Then he laughed softly.
“So we should move on to something greater. This is evolution.”
“The Demon King… Did that Demon King flirt with you?”
I knew I had no hope of surviving anyway. The Black Tiger had now given up on everything and growled. Ever since I borrowed the monster from Grimudo, that Epirna became strange.
Of course, it was strange at first. Since they were fiances, they have been attached to each other since childhood. I knew a lot about that woman. Among the tigers, it was unusual in a bad sense.
But now it’s more than weird, it’s crazy. Either way, it was obvious.
“no.”
The woman responded by stroking the black tiger’s head.
“Rather, I asked him for wisdom.”
“You’re totally crazy.”
“You have a vision.”
“Epirna! you ruined the beasts You went beyond the tiger and destroyed all the beasts with your own hands. If it caught my eye even a little, I used it as a test subject for your cruel experiment. Then I should have killed you somehow.”
The man shed tears. We should have killed that bitch when she was a little weaker, when she and Epirna were both young children, when they could have killed each other.
“I needed data.”
“The thing that caught my people and tested them in vivo, and then disastrously discarded them?!”
“Yeah, I needed data. Data to convince him. Evidence that shows the possibility of transforming a good person into a monster.”
“What the hell is Grimudo doing? Why does a bitch like you follow you so seriously?”
Baekho smiled. wide open.
“Someday I really want to conquer.”
“What, what?”
“I can’t even compare myself to a boring guy like you. In all aspects of strength and wisdom, he is different. It’s like my ideal. He is the most complete self-respecting person.”
No matter how much love was not enough and it was broken, the tiger gave a blank expression when he heard this from his former fiancée. I didn’t even know how I was feeling right now.
At least one thing was certain. This is a feeling that doesn’t suit a tiger.
“If you are not strong, you will die as a tiger. So should I die?”
“Epirna, Epirna…!”
“Eric. There was a time when I was a little bit interested in you.”
Grabbing her neck, twisting it with a vicious force, the woman murmured.
“But not now. Now my interest is only in him.”
“He’s… even a child… I’m going to give birth to…
“I would be happy if that day really came.”
A smiling face that he had never shown before.
Fortunately or unfortunately, the already blind tiger died without seeing it. If I had seen it, I probably wouldn’t have been able to close my eyes even in death.
“Actually, that’s one of the reasons I wanted to have a monster body.”
