Chapter 687 : The Dragon and the Dragon-Slaying Princess

After sending the message to Eitani, Felyn put the communication art seal aside for now.

He had to deal with Seraphina first.

The dragon girl... felt like she was broken.

She followed Felyn closely, unwilling to leave his side for even a step.

No matter how Felyn called her name, Seraphina would slowly lift her long eyelashes, glance at him with those charming eyes, and then quickly look away.

Under these circumstances, Felyn couldn't go save Eitani.

Seraphina was very clingy during the contract, but outside of the contract time, she mostly didn't like to talk to Felyn, let alone be clingy.

But now, Seraphina had clearly brought her contract personality into the real world.

This was not a good sign.

"Seraphina."

"Ah... I'm here." She let out a small cry, returning to the real world from her embarrassing memories.

"Are you hungry? After this contract ends..."

Upon hearing the word "contract," Seraphina's body trembled.

"I-I'll go cook for you... I thought you might be hungry. But I don't have any other good ingredients at home, so you'll have to make do."

"Mmm, thank you."

Felyn turned to leave, but Seraphina's hand suddenly, as if it had a mind of its own, grabbed the departing Felyn.

"Don't go..." she subconsciously voiced her thoughts.

Realizing what she was doing, Seraphina was startled by her own actions. She quickly pulled her hand back, then touched her somewhat hot earlobe. "I didn't mean that. You can go cook."

Felyn went downstairs, his heart already feeling that something was not right.

Seraphina, the founder of Seraphina, the wealthy young lady who had amassed countless riches, had now become so pure, shy, and clingy.

This was somewhat dangerous.

Not long after Felyn went downstairs, Seraphina followed.

Fiorella greeted her, but she only gave a simple response, then still subconsciously looked towards Felyn.

In just five short minutes, Seraphina went from the entrance to sitting on the sofa, then to the dining chair, and finally leaned directly against the kitchen wall.

She was getting closer and closer to Felyn.

In her pale cyan eyes, Felyn was busy with his back to her, as if he hadn't noticed her actions at all.

Seraphina's hand was on her chest, her heart pounding non-stop.

She herself didn't know why her body would subconsciously move to Felyn's side, why she craved to be near him so much.

Tonight, the string inside her had completely snapped.

Once it snapped, there was no going back.

Even with just a wall between them, Seraphina found it a little unbearable. Her foot stepped into the kitchen.

"Are you hungry?" Feeling Seraphina approach him, Felyn didn't turn around, his heart very nervous.

Seraphina walking in now could be for two reasons.

First, she had fallen for him and couldn't leave him.

Second, she felt that tonight's contract service had crossed a line, felt embarrassed, and was going to kill him to silence him.

Both reasons were unacceptable to Felyn!

Felyn pursed his lips. The complicated thoughts caused him to accidentally cut his finger while chopping vegetables.

"Hiss~" Felyn sucked in a breath of cold air as blood flowed from the wound.

Just as he was about to find paper to wipe it, Seraphina quickly squeezed to his side and put Felyn's finger directly into her mouth.

"Se-Se..."

The tip of her tongue licked the wound, the warm sensation soothing Felyn's pain.

Her pale cyan eyes blinked. Seraphina, who had reacted subconsciously, finally realized what she was doing.

She had actually put Felyn's finger in her mouth.

She stiffly took Felyn's finger out of her mouth. "I just like to drink blood, don't overthink it."

"I-is that so..."

Seraphina is a vampire?

Seeing the surprised expression on Felyn's face, Seraphina quickly added, "I don't drink it every day."

The explanation was rather pale and weak. Felyn just said "oh" and looked at his finger.

It was still stained with the dragon girl's saliva.

"I'll wipe it clean for you." The dragon girl took out a handkerchief and wiped the saliva from Felyn's hand. Their hands inevitably touched.

Seraphina's movements of wiping Felyn's finger became slower and slower, until finally, her two hands directly held Felyn's hand, and she fell into a daze.

Felyn's hand... is so warm.

"Seraphina?"

Reminded by Felyn, Seraphina took a deep breath and quickly let go of his hand.

What's wrong with me?

Why, why do I want to be so close to Felyn?

Seeing him get hurt, I want to heal him.

Holding his hand, I don't even want to let go.

Felyn turned around, the knife thudding on the cutting board. "I don't really remember what happened tonight. So, you don't have to mind it too much."

Seraphina hummed softly, leaning against the cabinet, just watching Felyn cook. "Then can I still look for you next time?"

"Of course, don't we still have a few services left?"

After Felyn cracked two eggs, Seraphina, with courage from who knows where, suddenly asked, "You don't think... I was very debased tonight, do you?"

The proud dragon girl was most concerned about Felyn's opinion of her.

She hated her body, detested removing her old scales.

She didn't want to be seen in Felyn's eyes as a mother dragon that could be forcibly conquered with a whip.

"No, I know this isn't what you wanted to happen." Felyn said while seasoning the steak. "Even if it was what you wanted, I don't think it's debased. Everyone pursues different things. As long as both parties are willing, then there won't be any problem."

Felyn gave Seraphina a faint smile. "Seraphina, I have never thought of you that way. I respect all your thoughts."

Dragon girl, I'm begging you, please go back to your usual indifferent self.

Like this, I'm really too scared.

"Even like I was tonight, you don't think I'm strange?" Seraphina's eyes sparkled.

"Mmm. You are my client. Rest assured, I will absolutely not have any opinions about your preferences."

Felyn's words made Seraphina's mood, which had just been improving, suddenly drop.

Just... a client?

But now... I don't want to be just a client.

"Seraphina?"

Seraphina hugged Felyn's waist, her incredibly soft body pressing tightly against his back.

Her somewhat rapid breaths hit his neck. Felyn's flour-covered hands could only be held up in the air.

Seraphina's head rested on Felyn's back as she said softly, "Just let me lean on you for a while, I'm a little tired."

"But Seraphina, shouldn't we avoid suspicion between us? The contract stipulates it." Felyn wanted to break free, but Seraphina held him very tightly.

"I know, but I just want to hug you."

Seraphina hugged Felyn, unwilling to let go.

She was a dragon, the evil dragon that appeared in countless novels.

Once a dragon sets its sights on a certain treasure, it will do everything in its power to bring it back to its lair, even if it means going to war with humans.

Tonight, she had shown her most bottomless side in front of Felyn, yet Felyn still respected her, still did not have any bad thoughts about her.

At this moment, she saw Felyn as a treasure, as something she wanted, and must have.

The evil dragon was on the move.

When the evil dragon moves, a princess is naturally indispensable.

The dragon-slaying princess, Lianrora, was inside the house.

And outside, the fifth princess of the empire, Her Highness Dorothy, stood on a flowerpot, peering through the window, and saw the warm scene in the kitchen.

After seeing this scene, the title of Dragon-Slaying Princess was about to be placed on Dorothy's head.
