How could you leave Moon like this! Boo-hoo~”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Moon missed you so much~”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“When will you come back to see Moon~”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Boo-hoo-hoo~ This steak is so delicious, boo-hoo-hoo~ Big sister, who do you think invented seared steak anyway, boo-hoo~”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Over the years, Moon had mastered the art of crying while eating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Noa stood with her arms crossed, quietly watching Moon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora stood obediently at Noa’s side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, that obedient look was just for show; in reality, the little pink-haired girl was utterly baffled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Earlier in the morning, her big sister had come to her saying that there was an important event and they had to gather in the back courtyard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So Aurora came.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She thought this important event would be some sort of magic training.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But instead, she found herself watching her second sister crying for their parents while munching on steak!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora didn’t get it, but she was deeply fascinated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Big sister, I’m three years old, but this is my first time seeing something like this. This isn’t a traditional ritual of the Silver Dragon Clan, is it?” she asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Noa nodded, her face serious as she explained, “Honestly, this is more of a... random occurrence.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their parents randomly disappeared for anywhere from three to ten days, so “Moon Cries for Dad” naturally became a random event as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora scratched her head and looked at her second sister.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But Second Sister looks like she’s enjoying that food. I want some too.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Noa didn’t answer immediately and instead looked at one of the nearby maids.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How much longer until your cue?” Noa asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The maid nodded respectfully. “About thirty seconds, Your Highness.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Noa turned back to Aurora. “Hold on a bit. Mom and Dad are almost home.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora blinked, looking around without seeing any sign of their parents.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How can you be so sure, Big Sister? They didn’t say when they’d be back.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Noa took a deep breath and replied seriously with just one word:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Experience.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ex... experience...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even in the strangest moments, the most cheerful spirit would find it hard to laugh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora, who had lived in this household for three years, still struggled to keep up with her big sisters’ and parents’ antics.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Did this mean she really had to inherit her aunt’s Red Dragon Sanctuary one day...?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No way. If that happened, she’d have to rename it the Pink Dragon Sanctuary—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And that didn’t sound fierce at all!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora’s mind began to wander, trying to distract herself from the bizarre atmosphere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But she wasn’t the only one feeling puzzled and out of place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Funerals are solemn and serious events, symbolizing the mourning and remembrance of the deceased. They’re a tradition for most races on the continent of Samael. But—”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What in the world are you all doing?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I could maybe understand the maids laughing and chatting, but why is your sister eating the offerings?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In her mind space, the ancestor’s spirit was clearly shocked by the modern generation’s antics.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The long-dormant spirit of sarcasm roared to life. If she hadn’t been asleep for so long, disconnected from modern society, and limited in vocabulary, Noa’s ancestor would have been ranting non-stop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Calmly, Noa corrected her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“She’s not stealing.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then what is she doing?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Eating openly.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“...So what is this whole ceremony for, anyway? Honoring your invincible father? He’s only been gone a few days; it’s not like he needs a funeral.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No, not honoring. Summoning.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ancestor was even more confused, but after a moment of thought, it made sense. It had been thousands of years since her era; magic had certainly evolved through countless generations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So... a summoning ritual looking like a funeral wasn’t entirely impossible!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Such a large-scale summoning magic... it must be powerful, right?” The ancestor’s expression was serious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Noa scratched her nose. “Well... in theory, it only takes one person.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“One person? Who?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Princesses’ filial piety moves the heavens! The prince has returned once again!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Okay, they’re back. Talk later.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, Noa disconnected from the mind space. When she opened her eyes again, the familiar figures of her parents stood before them—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Well, only her mother was standing. Her father was in a wheelchair for some reason.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moon was the first to react.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Dad! What happened to your leg? You always came back fine before. Why are you in a wheelchair this time?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Little Moon ran to Leon’s side. Although she had been fake-crying earlier, now her big, shiny eyes were genuinely filled with concern.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Is it because Moon ate your offerings that your leg got hurt?” she asked, her logic both heartfelt and flawed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leon chuckled, picking Moon up and placing her on his lap.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No, no. Dad just tripped on a rock when he was out and fell.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Really, Dad?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Really. Would Dad lie to you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then Moon will massage your leg every day so it heals quickly!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank you, Moon.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Noa, however, was skeptical about her dad’s story.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She knew exactly what kind of superhuman he was. A rock capable of tripping him and breaking his leg wouldn’t be something naturally found on the continent of Samael.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Noa kept her doubts to herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then it was Aurora’s turn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wow... Big Sister, you really do make things happen. You said they’d be back, and here they are!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This amazed Aurora for the rest of the year.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But beyond the amazement, she immediately wondered if her big sister’s precise timing for their parents’ return had anything to do with that ghost inside her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hmm~~\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This seemed like a good lead to investigate later!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Come here, Aurora. Let Mommy hold you,” Rosvisser said, kneeling and opening her arms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The little pink-haired girl obediently stepped forward and snuggled into her mother’s warm embrace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leon glanced at them and whispered, “Cough—Moon hugged me first.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rosvisser shot him a glare. “Childish. Not worth arguing over.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leon pouted. He knew the mother dragon couldn’t take a loss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Leon won, Rosvisser’s response was:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Childish. Not worth arguing over.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Leon lost, Rosvisser’s response was:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I won, I won, I won! The greatest dragon slayer? Is that all?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To put it simply—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When she lost, she stayed silent. When she won, she flaunted it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leon decided not to bicker with her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Noa turned to the maids.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank you, everyone. You can return to your duties now.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The maids curtsied and left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Noa walked up to her parents, looking at Leon’s cast-covered leg with concern.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Does it still hurt, Dad?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It doesn’t hurt anymore. It’s just a small bone fracture; it’ll heal in a few days.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“With your strength, Dad, it will definitely heal fast.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though Noa had always been her father’s biggest supporter, the ultimate “Leon fan,”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right now, Leon felt like saying:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sweetheart, your dad’s race isn’t like you dragons. We have a saying, “a hundred days for bone healing,” and it’s not about strength, it’s just how it is... tat\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The family of five reunited after days apart, chatting on the grassy courtyard in the morning breeze about everything that had happened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Noa asked what her parents had been doing during their absence, the couple tacitly decided to change the subject.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They couldn’t exactly tell their obedient daughter that her parents had been off leading a revolution, toppling an emperor’s throne, and possibly cutting the human-dragon war short by several years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, with seamless coordination, they shifted the conversation to Claudia and Helena.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leon used this as an opportunity to share the good news with Noa.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Helena will be visiting our home in a few days.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three daughters reacted differently to the news.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Noa (●’◡’●):\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My best friend is coming!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moon (▼ _ ▼):\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My ‘rival’ is coming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora (???):\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fun is coming!\u003C\u002Fp>",1424,"2026-06-06T15:09:44.609Z",1,"novelbin.me","ac44de712d54014e3d2d4898f0c5acdd92d2b3d755c4fd5b0f1fb86812d96f18","shut-up-malevolent-dragon-i-don-t-want-to-have-a-chapter-439","shut-up-malevolent-dragon-i-don-t-want-to-have-a-chapter-437",914,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fshut-up-malevolent-dragon-i-don-t-want-to-have-a-cover.jpg"]
