However, Cale opened his eyes again and looked toward the Dragon half-blood.

The Dragon half-blood who was sitting on the couch with his head and body bowing down as far as possible was shaking.

That shaking was visible even though his body was covered by a large robe.

It was at that moment.

“What are you sorry for?”

Lord Sheritt opened her eyes and asked the Dragon half-blood in a cold voice.

The Dragon half-blood raised his shaking body upright. He still could not make eye contact with Sheritt.

He barely managed to speak.

“…I got the heart.”

“Why is that your fault?”

Flinch.

The Dragon half-blood’s body flinched and his eyes headed toward Lord Sheritt.

The face that had been filled with mischievousness before was observing the Dragon half-blood with a cold gaze.

The Dragon half-blood could feel a fire developing inside Lord Sheritt’s eyes. He felt like he could also see the sorrow that was roaring like a large wave.

“…That-”

The Dragon half-blood opened his mouth to speak again but Lord Sheritt cut him off.

“It is not your fault that my child’s heart was placed inside your body. It is not your fault that you became a chimera with my child’s heart either.”

She wanted to rip the White Star into shreds and felt both anger and sorrow as she looked at the Dragon half-blood. However, what was not true, was not true.

“You did not end up like that because you wanted it.”

The Dragon half-blood didn't know what to say.

As the Lord mentioned, he did not want to become a chimera. If, really if, he could ever go back to the past, he would want to avoid the moment he became a chimera.

It was terribly painful and extremely lonely.

The only thing he got for enduring that pain and loneliness was becoming a monster that did not fit in anywhere.

He recalled Lord Sheritt's statement again.

‘It is not your fault that you became a chimera with my child’s heart either.’

The Dragon half-blood opened and closed his mouth a few times.

He wanted to say something, but didn’t know how to express the emotions he was feeling inside.

He heard Lord Sheritt’s cold voice at that moment.

“However, you do have a lot of things to be sorry for.”

The Dragon half-blood closed his mouth tightly.

That was the case.

He had a lot of things to be sorry for; he had a lot of sins.

“All of the terrible things you have done. In addition-”

Lord Sheritt’s eyes moved elsewhere. The Dragon half-blood's gaze followed as well and he could see clear dark blue eyes looking at him.

Raon Miru.

The black Dragon was quietly observing the Dragon half-blood while inside Cale’s arms.

The Dragon half-blood felt as if he was suffocating once he looked into those eyes.

He had tried to kill him.

He had wanted to kill this black Dragon.

He wanted to kill him because Raon was a real Dragon that a chimera like him could never become.

Because he was a Dragon who was protected and loved by others around him.

That was why he had tried to kill him.

The Dragon half-blood’s fingertips started to shake again.

He recalled one of the days when he had been washing dishes at the Eastern continent's inn. The two Kittens, On and Hong, and this child had approached him.

‘You’re very good at washing dishes! Hey Dragon half-blood, do you like this inn?’

‘I think he likes it! I can tell! Right, noona?’

‘You’re not supposed to ask things like that. You’re supposed to pretend like you don't know.’

He couldn't believe the children that were chatting like this next to him.

Had they forgotten what he had done? They were chatting so much around him that he couldn't help but have such thoughts. He knew that they were acting like that because they knew the condition of his body and felt sorry for him.

The Dragon half-blood suddenly regretted that moment.
