Trash of the Count's Family

# When I'm the angriest? (4)

Cale had a dilemma at that moment.

He had a thought like this.

‘This guy is an illusion, but would it be okay to call him Raon Miru?’

The three-year-old Dragon Cale met here was similar but different from the four-year-old Dragon. Not only was there the one year time difference, the way they were rescued and their environment afterwards were some of the many differences between the two Dragons.

Although this three-year-old Dragon and Raon Miru were the same…

Although they were similar…

They were still a bit different. Most importantly, the three-year-old Dragon was an illusion Cale would never see again.

That might have been the reason that…

“…Dodam.”

That word had burst out subconsciously.

Dodam dodam.

It was the pure Korean word for a child playing well and growing without being sick.

“Dodam?”

Raon slightly released Cale's collar and tilted his head in confusion. That was when Cale accepted it.

For the current Raon that he met in an illusion and would not be able to meet in reality…

Even if he was an illusion that would disappear once Cale left, Cale wanted to say this to the young three-year-old black Dragon.

“…Dodam Miru. Let’s go with that.”

‘You are going to grow well from here on.’

“Miru means Dragon.”

Purple light started to swirl from the bottom of Cale’s feet. Raon, Choi Han, and Cale all knew about this but they were looking at each other.

Cale put his hands around the two front paws on his collar and nonchalantly continued.

“Dodam means that you should play well and grow up safely without being sick.”

The young Dragon's dark blue eyes gently shook. However, the shaking soon stopped and a firm gaze looked back at Cale.

“You can change your name from Dodam when you become an adult.”

Choosing his own name and his own path wouldn't be bad if he safely grew up and became an adult.

Even if this was just an illusion, Cale wanted to tell the three-year-old Dragon about the future.

He wanted this farewell to not be a bad one.

The black Dragon released his grip on Cale’s collar and blankly mumbled to himself.

“…Dodam Miru.”

This was the first time Cale saw this three-year-old Dragon smile brightly.

“I like it.”

Cale smiled at that favorable response.

“It’s a good name.”

Cale nodded his head at Choi Han’s comment. It wasn’t a bad name for having just come up with it.

The purple light was up to Cale's waist now.

‘It's the opposite this time.’

The world Cale was looking at had turned blue or yellow until now but it was Cale who was being surrounded by the color this time.

“Goodbye.”

The black Dragon waved his front paw as if he wasn’t feeling anything. Choi Han chuckled and patted the Dragon's back while waiving to Cale with the other hand.

It truly wasn’t a bad farewell. Cale had that thought as he noticed the purple light and dust cover up to his face and turn things dark.

“Bye.”

He gave a final goodbye and let the darkness take him.

He could not hear anything.

He could only faintly see stuff as the amount of things he could see slowly dwindled.

Plop.

“Ugh.”

Choi Han quickly caught his body as it fell. The reddish brown eyes slowly lost focus as the body was completely covered in purple light.

That person named Cale was leaving.

Choi Han turned his head.
