I Was Kidnapped By The Strongest Guild
Chapter 361: Dragon Meat (2)

We lit a campfire in front of the tent and gathered cozily with the guild members.

What we were all watching was the Dragon Chicken.

Sizzle sizzle-

The sound of frying Dragon Chicken had a strange addictiveness.

As I slowly approached the oil, Han Yeoreum stopped me.

"Let's stay back so the oil doesn't splash and hurt you?"

"Okay."

As I stepped backward slowly, I bumped into something soft.

Looking up, Jung Yu-na was smiling down at me kindly.

She silently started playing with my cheeks and ears.

"Hehe."

I smiled at her then looked forward again as Levinas approached with her characteristic innocent expression.

"King! Remember the broadcast?!"

"Which broadcast?"

"The broadcast said eating dragon meat makes you as strong as a dragon!"

"Ah, yeah."

The broadcast narration did say that with its typical over-the-top energy.

Cleverly, Levinas had remembered this.

"What if we get super strong after eating dragon meat?!"

Her face looked expectant.

Unfortunately, Dragon Chicken wasn't real dragon meat so it wouldn't make us stronger.

Though my cooking could have buffs, I hadn't been involved with this Dragon Chicken at all.

I wondered what to say.

As I was thinking, Jung Yu-na picked me up.

"If you get strong from eating dragon meat, will Levinas pick everyone up like this?"

"Heuk! Yes!"

"Huhu."

We chatted about various things while waiting for the Dragon Chicken to fry.

Gaeul and Encia showed the most excitement.

Master and Jeffrey maintained silence.

"Hmm..."

"Hmm..."

They looked even more serious than usual.

It seemed like there might be a problem.

"Why are you both like that?"

"They must be nervous since it's their first time trying it."

Han Yeoreum answered my question.

She chuckled while frying the chicken, finding something amusing.

"Huh?! Master's never had dragon meat before?!"

"...Never had one this small before."

"Heuk!"

Levinas's shoulders shot up.

She looked proud having brought food that even Master and Jeffrey had never tried before.

"Levinas brought lots, so eat plenty!"

"Yes, thank you."

While we were talking, the Dragon Chicken came out golden brown.

As Han Yeoreum served the chicken on plates, I speared a piece with my fork.

"It's a long-necked dragon!"

Levinas held up her Dragon Chicken.

As I was about to eat while watching her, Gaeul grabbed my wrist.

"Hm? Want some Gaeul?"

"Yeah."

When I held out the chicken on my fork to Gaeul, she started blowing on it.

Phoo phoo, Gaeul carefully cooled the chicken then handed it back to me.

"Oh..."

So she wasn't asking for it but cooling it for me.

Our Gaeul was so thoughtful.

I patted Gaeul's head while putting the Dragon Chicken in my mouth.

Munch munch-

Everyone must have taken a bite at the same time, as only the sound of eating chicken could be heard.

Along with the sound of our tails wagging.

"Heuk!"

Levinas's horned rabbit eyes went wide as she ate the chicken.

"Dragon meat tastes like chicken!"

**

We ate some chicken then played around.

Then ate more chicken and played some more.

Gaeul ran around the tent with two pieces of Dragon Chicken skewered on her fork.

"Rawr. Levinas is a dragon."

"Roar."

Levinas roared like a dragon.

Gaeul clumsily tried to imitate her.

The two children playing dragon ran toward me.

"Yah!"

Levinas lifted me up.

Though her arms trembled, she managed to lift me somehow.

"Wow, Levinas got stronger."

"Yeah! Levinas got dragon power!"

"Heuk!"

Gaeul's ears perked up watching us, then she approached a nearby rock.

It was a rock about the size of my torso, and Gaeul struggled trying to lift it.

'Oh dear.'

That's way too difficult.

Just as I thought that-

Gaeul started lifting the rock.

"Huh?"

"What?"

"..."

Me, Levinas, and even Saebyeok.

Our ears shot up in surprise.

Gaeul seemed quite surprised too, staring at us with wide eyes.

"Master...!"

"U-um..."

How did Gaeul manage to lift that?

Did she really get dragon power?

As I stood there with my mouth open, Jung Yu-na's chuckling helped me realize.

She had used magic to make Gaeul's rock float.

"Amazing. Looks like Gaeul got dragon power."

"...!"

Swish swish.

As Gaeul's tail wagged, Saebyeok approached a rock hidden in some bushes.

It was several times bigger than my body.

"I'm a dragon too."

Lift-

Saebyeok lifted the rock.

Without seeming to use much strength, she lifted it above their head.

"Wow..."

"Dark King became a cat dragon...!"

Tap tap tap tap-

Levinas ran circles around Saebyeok who was holding the rock.

Gaeul and I, having nothing else to do, ran after her too.

As we circled around Saebyeok for quite a while, Master approached us.

"The small dragon meat was tasty."

"Really?!"

"Yeah. As thanks, I'll buy you big dragon meat for dinner."

"Big?!"

Big dragon meat.

How big would the dragon be?

Levinas must have been curious too, as she pointed at the rock Saebyeok was holding and asked.

"Is it this big?!"

"...Want to go see for yourself?"

"Yeah! I want to see!"

Levinas nodded.

She shook her head so fast I worried she might get dizzy.

"Then let's clean up and go."

"Okay."

I cleaned up with the children.

We put away the pot and packed up the leftover Dragon Chicken.

Encia helped us clean, but kept rubbing her arm.

"Hmm... hmm...?"

Encia tilted her head back and forth.

Why was she acting like that?

As I stared at Encia, Han Yeoreum whispered in her ear.

"Encia, this isn't dragon, it's chicken..."

"What...?"

Though the voice was very quiet, I could hear it all.

I shouldn't eavesdrop on their private conversation.

As I was closing my ears, I caught the last bit.

"And getting stronger doesn't mean actual muscle increase, it's... um..."

"...?!"

Encia's face instantly turned as red as a ripe apple.

It looked like her head might explode.

Her perked-up tail was trembling too.

'What was that?'

Since I'd closed my ears partway through, I hadn't heard what Han Yeoreum said.

Though I felt curious, it was right not to listen.

I decided not to worry about it and finish cleaning up.

**

We were heading to the market in Master's car.

Master had only told us it wasn't an ordinary market.

"Hehe."

Han Yeoreum was laughing while looking at her smartphone beside me.

What was it?

I peeked at her smartphone.

───

[Shocking! Yeomyeong Guild's key members gather with serious expressions...!]

To eat Dragon Chicken.

───

An attention-grabbing title with underwhelming content.

The post included photos of us gathered eating Dragon Chicken.

[BeastkinLover: Can't resist Dragon Chicken;;;]

[└Lulunana: Honestly Dragon Chicken is so good.]

[NotMyStocks: Why is Kang Jinho's face so funny? lol]

[└WhyMe: That "what is this...?" expression lol]

[???: This is dragon meat! Sharing something precious!]

[└HalfBeast: Makes me laugh because the kids probably really thought that lol]

I couldn't help being surprised at the last comment.

Because Levinas had really bought the meat with that intention.

'Wow.'

How did they know?

People's deductive abilities are amazing.

As I stared at the smartphone with my mouth open, the car arrived at a parking lot in front of a building.

"Wow."

It was a huge warehouse that looked like a logistics center.

Do they sell dragon meat here?

Han Yeoreum opened the van door and got out.

Following after her, Saebyeok held my tail while getting out of the car.

Gaeul held Saebyeok's tail, and Levinas held Gaeul's tail.

Like a train, we lined up and followed Han Yeoreum and Master.

"There's a dragon this big inside, I wonder if it'll be too scary for our little ones?"

Han Yeoreum turned to us as she spoke.

To explain the dragon's size, she spread her arms wide.

"Is the dragon alive...?!"

"No, it's not alive."

"Then it's fine!"

Levinas raised her eyebrows.

Gaeul in front of her raised her eyebrows similarly.

"Hmm... maybe you should stay outside though..."

"Then can we just peek a little?!"

"Hmm... shall we?"

We all entered the huge warehouse together.

It was so chilly I had to rub my arms.

"It's back here..."

Han Yeoreum grabbed the large door handle.

Creak-

She slowly opened the door just enough to make a small gap to peek through.

Gaeul was the first to put her eye to the gap.

"...!"

Gaeul's tail fur stood straight up, then she collapsed backward like fainting.

Making a thud sound as she fell, Gaeul lifted up her shirt.

Her soft white belly and belly button were exposed.

She had taken a submissive posture.
