What was Aurora playing at? Why did she suddenly want Noa to run?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was this part of one of her mischievous pranks?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Noa could figure it out, the voice of the ancestor sounded in her mind:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Listen to her, Noa. Run.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ancestor’s tone carried an unusual urgency, even excitement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, Noa didn’t hesitate. Trusting her ancestor more than her unpredictable sister, she turned and bolted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora, watching her eldest sister flee, finally relaxed and let out a sigh of relief. Her usual cheerful expression returned as she leaned comfortably against their parents.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Everything’s fine now~,” she declared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Are you sure you’re okay, Aurora?” Leon asked, still concerned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, Dad, I’m fine now.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leon set her down gently. “Good. Don’t eat anything strange for the next few days, okay?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Okay, Dad,” Aurora chirped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With his worry for Aurora resolved, Leon remembered his earlier task.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But when he turned around to resume his search, the “task” was nowhere to be seen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His heart sank, and he quickly looked at Rosvisser.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The couple exchanged a knowing glance and, without hesitation, left to track down Noa.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching her parents hurry off, Aurora pushed her bangs back with a sigh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What do they even want with Noa…?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, Noa had darted into the Silver Dragon Sanctuary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The backyard was too open—no matter where she ran, she could easily be spotted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sanctuary’s main building, however, had countless rooms. She could hide in one, giving her parents plenty to search through.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although she still had no idea why they were looking for her, both Aurora and the ancestor had urged her to run, so she had no choice but to listen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Noa found a storage room, opened the door, and slipped inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She closed the door quietly behind her, leaving the lights off. Only a faint glimmer of light from a small window illuminated the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crouching in a corner behind a stack of boxes, Noa tried to catch her breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Are you sure this is a safe spot?” the ancestor asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Positive,” Noa replied. “No one usually comes here. Even the maids only clean this place once a week.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Your Silver Dragon maids are quite lazy,” the ancestor quipped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If you’re so diligent, why don’t you come clean it yourself?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ancestor cleared her throat, then continued: “Why did Aurora tell you to hide? Did she sense something?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I was about to ask you the same thing,” Noa replied. “Why did you tell me to run?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before the ancestor could respond, the storage room door suddenly swung open.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Light flooded in, and a familiar voice called out, “Noa? What are you doing in here? It’s filthy. Come out!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Milan…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Noa squinted against the light and saw her maid standing in the doorway.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was about to brush it off with an excuse when Leon’s voice echoed from a distance:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Milan! Have you seen Noa?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Milan froze, her gaze shifting to the corner where Noa crouched.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Noa immediately curled into a ball, hugging her knees and pressing a finger to her lips in a pleading gesture.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Milan’s expression softened, and with a barely noticeable nod, she turned back toward the door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No, Father Leon,” she replied, her tone steady.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright, thank you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing their father’s response fade, Noa sighed in relief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But when Milan turned back to the corner, Noa was gone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All that remained was an open window and a breeze wafting into the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Of all the rotten luck…” the ancestor muttered as Noa clambered out of the window.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’ve been with me long enough to know I attract bad luck,” Noa replied, recalling her unfortunate history.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Bullied at school, stumbled upon ancient ruins during a routine inspection, injured during a promotion exam, and now this—hiding in a storage room only to get found by a maid.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Maybe try hiding somewhere no one would think to look,” the ancestor suggested dryly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Noa dashed down a corridor and ducked into another room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After locking the door, she tried to catch her breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But before long, footsteps approached.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“She must be nearby,” Leon’s voice carried through the hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Noa’s eyes widened. “How do they keep finding me?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I have a theory,” the ancestor said. “Your father’s skill at hide-and-seek has been a sham. He’s only been going easy on your siblings all this time!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Noa didn’t have time to respond. She slipped out through another window and ran into yet another room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The pattern repeated—each hiding spot seemed promising at first, only for her parents to appear moments later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Noa, where are you planning to hide now?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The safest place is the most dangerous,” Noa declared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Huh?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without hesitation, Noa dashed to her parents’ bedroom, slipped inside, and quietly shut the door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once in the room, she glanced around, finally opening the wardrobe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The scent of Rosvisser’s perfume lingered faintly, calming her as she nestled among the clothes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The variety of garments caught her eye. While elegant robes were expected, something else stood out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What’s this…?” Noa murmured, holding up a piece of lacy fabric. “Mom wears this? With… lace edges?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“And these red ropes… Wait, don’t they look like the ones Aurora once tied me up with?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“And… bunny ears? Since when does Mom like rabbits?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ancestor’s exasperated voice cut through her thoughts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Enough, Noa. You’ll understand these things when you’re older.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Setting the bunny ears aside, Noa frowned. “You still haven’t told me why you wanted me to hide.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ancestor hesitated before replying:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Because—” she drew the word out, as if for dramatic effect, “hide-and-seek is thrilling!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…” Noa stared blankly at the air, utterly unamused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sensing her frustration, the ancestor relented.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Fine. I sensed traces of the Primordial Force on your father. That’s why I told you to hide.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Noa’s brows furrowed. “The Primordial Force? But only Mom has been studying it. Dad’s never mentioned it before.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Exactly. It’s suspicious. Combined with Aurora’s reaction, I thought it best for you to stay hidden until we know more.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Noa could reply, the ancestor interjected:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wait! Your parents are coming!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Noa froze, peering through the wardrobe’s crack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leon and Rosvisser entered the room, scanning every corner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“She’s here somewhere…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“She’s clever—she won’t make it easy for us.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Should we check somewhere else?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright, let’s go.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As their footsteps receded, Noa exhaled in relief and gently pushed the wardrobe door open.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But as she stepped out, her path was blocked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leon and Rosvisser stood in front of her, arms crossed, smirking triumphantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Noa,” Leon said, “why are you running from us?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Caught off guard, Noa quickly grabbed the bunny ears, placed them on her head, and replied in the flattest tone imaginable:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I don’t know what’s going on. I’m just a little white rabbit.”\u003C\u002Fp>",1154,"2026-06-06T15:10:04.183Z",1,"novelbin.me","9a5545086f8eab162b8bcca79c6fd4d3e354897dc0af6e29436d8d0de7f7de38","shut-up-malevolent-dragon-i-don-t-want-to-have-a-chapter-578","shut-up-malevolent-dragon-i-don-t-want-to-have-a-chapter-576",914,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fshut-up-malevolent-dragon-i-don-t-want-to-have-a-cover.jpg"]
