Chapter 171

“Mr . Noah!”

Yoohyun’s arm grabbed me as I started to run to Noah in reflex . I heard the growl of a dragon as Yoohyun said that the situation was dangerous at the same time . A black-scaled hand grabbed a golden wing .

Noah’s body crashed with a thud, and Riette revealed her teeth like a puma ambushing a hawk as she twisted her brother’s wings and neck .

“My brother, you’ve become cuter since the last time I saw you . ”

-Grr…

While Noah tried to swing his tail at Riette, she only needed a kick to keep him at bay . Noah’s claws scratched the ground, and Riette put more force behind her hands as she twisted his body .

“Hey, Riette! Let go of me, Yoohyun!”

“What will you do? Stay still . She would have already finished if she wanted to kill him, so don’t worry . ”

How could I not?! However, I could not make him let go of me, and it was Soyoung Kang who moved after seeing the sight with wide eyes . I saw a curved blade in her hand . There was no handle, and it looked like a boomerang with a shiny blade on the outer rim . The side without the edges span once on her hand, and her arm moved to swing the blade at Riette . Since the entire thing was a blade, touching it would mean being cut up .

However, Riette’s scales held the blade without a scratch, and Noah fluttered his freed wings . Riette let go of Noah’s neck and stepped back at the dragon’s rough movements .

“Sweetie, are you taking my brother’s side?”

“I came here to help Mr . Noah out from the first place . ”

Soyoung Kang spoke with composure, and I could not help but think that her methods had been haywire .

“Mr . Noah, come here!”

Since I could not go to him, I had to call him to come to me . Noah hesitated for a moment before changing into human form to stand next to me . Since Yoohyun was here and Taewon Song was only a few steps away, Riette would not be able to attack him so easily .

Riette glanced at Noah, who was healing the marks on his neck, before staring at Soyoung Kang .

“So, do you like Noah more than me?”

“No, you’re the best!”

“Then?”

“But I like Mr . Noah and Comet, too . ”

“You’re greedy . ”

She was greedier than I had expected since she was not satisfied with having one high-class dragon .

“Is that wrong?”

Soyoung Kang opened her eyes wide, and I could see the heat behind her eyes that did not suit their dark blue color .

“I like strong and beautiful dragons, and I want to have them all . ”

“You’ll become ill . You should only grab what you can take . ”

“I don’t care . I would rather die for having too much than letting go of anything . ”

I could see her greed on her face and in her voice . While her logic was forced, Soyoung Kang was confident . Everyone would agree she was asking for too much . If Soyoung Kang did not have the rider skill, she would have been unable to have Comet, which would grow to an S class dragon . However, she was saying that she even wanted Noah and Riette, who were S class hunters with red-hot desire .

Riette narrowed her golden eyes and laughed out loud before hugging Soyoung Kang .

“You’re really cute!”

Riette roughly stroked hair similar to her eyes in color .

“You’re trying to take what you can’t control . Sweetie, you’ll die for it . ”

“I don’t care!”

“Yes, yes . However, you can’t have us all . ”

Riette tapped Soyoung Kang’s stomach as she spoke .

“Do you want me to make you an S class?”

“Really? Of-“

“No!”

Noah shouted in astonishment, and I felt the same . That woman was going to swallow another one whole!

“My sister is too dangerous!”

“Yes, Ms . Soyoung . You belong to Sesung and should have his permission first!”

“Wouldn’t he agree? It would be better to be an S class . ”

Soyoung Kang tilted her head in Riette’s arms, and Noah growled like he was in dragon form . His narrowed eyes were fierce, unlike his usual self .

“Let go of Hunter Soyoung Kang, sister . ”

“How about taking her away from me, brother?”

“Oh, my heart skipped a beat . I could get used to this . ”

Soyoung Kang’s cheeks flushed in happiness, and she was far gone enough to enjoy the fact she was stuck between two dragons . Noah was serious, unlike Soyoung Kang, but he only fisted his hands as he could not rush at his sister . The reality was too harsh .

Noah had initially been an A class supporter while Riette was born an S class attacker . While they were of the same race, they were too far apart in strength .

“Mr . Noah . ”

I reached out and grabbed Noah’s arm, and his shoulders sagged from letting go of the tension and excitement . I could see his eyes were watery as he looked back at me, and he must be furious .

“I also want to fight against my sister without running away . ”

“I know . ”

While Noah was terrified of Riette, he had protected me in front of Yoohyun and had tried to take Soyoung Kang away because he wanted to face Riette head on . While he knew more than anyone else that he was weaker than Riette, Noah had not given up yet .

“Then, do you want to try?”

“…Yes?”

“Wait, hyung . ”

Yoohyun frowned as he put more power in the arm holding me, as he must have noticed that I was about to share my doubling effect on Noah .

“No . ”

“Mr . Noah won’t have problems . ”

“Still, no . Are you really going to keep going like this?”

“Just this once . We are indebted to Mr . Noah, you know . ”

I consoled my brother as I turned my eyes to Riette, even though I could not see clearly with my eyes .

“Riette, how about going face to face with Noah? I’ll give him a buff skill since there’s too much of a gap between you two . ”

“Will you?”

“If you win, I won’t interfere with what happens with you and Ms . Soyoung Kang, and I’ll even help you convince the Sesung Guild leader . ”

“Mr . Yoojin! I can’t win against my sister!”

“Let’s try first . Trust me . ”

“All right, darling! Should we start now?”

“No . I need to make preparations, and I’ll notify you of the date . ”

“I can’t wait long . ”

Riette smiled confidently, thinking Noah would not be able to win even with some serious buff skills . However, I would make Noah the victor of this sibling fight .
