Tammy came back after circling around South Island.
He was actually a little sad.
Because he felt that maybe, he would never, ever become human.
If an adult dragon wanted to obtain the ability to become human, they would need to kill three people on the night of the full moon.
And if the dragon wanted to become human forever, they would need to find a subst.i.tute.
Perhaps.
Perhaps he had been the human subst.i.tute for the previous dragon that turned human.
If he wanted to become human, should he kill people or look for a subst.i.tute?
It seemed like he wouldn"t be able to do either.
Tammy"s thoughts came to this point, and he dejectedly flew back.
Suddenly, there was a scream from the servant below.
“Princess! Princess! Slow down, slow down!!"
Princess?
Two days ago, when Tammy was on the way to South Island, his thoughts had always been on conveniently going to Pip Kingdom"s palace to s.n.a.t.c.h a princess on the way back so that he could see Shiloh soon. So much so that he was now a little sensitive to the word "princess".
He looked down and saw a princess with a crown and a long beige gown running barefoot on the beach, followed by a group of elderly maids.
It was almost a conditioned reflex for Tammy to dive downwards!
In a flash, the princess was caught!!
Then, the princess and the maids" shrill screams rang out.
Tammy tossed the princess onto his back and flew up into the sky.
“Hold on tight. I won"t care if you fall and die."
The princess was so frightened that she clasped her arms tightly around his neck.
Tammy couldn"t help feeling some pride in his heart: He was really good at s.n.a.t.c.hing princesses!
The wind was whizzing by his ears, and the princess on his back was no longer screaming.
“You.. is your ear wrapped with feverfew gra.s.s?"
The princess on his back suddenly asked carefully.
Tammy was a little happy that he could talk to someone other than Shiloh for the first time, "I don"t know. Someone else helped me wrap it. Why?"
The princess seemed to think of something, and her voice became very light, as though she was very sad, "My elder brother… Liked to dress wounds like this."
“Then your elder brother must be a very gentle man.”
“Yes." The princess nodded, and tears abruptly began to fall from her eyes.
Tammy felt something wet land on his neck and asked, “What"s wrong?"
“Nothing." The princess wiped away her tears and stopped talking.
Tammy felt that this princess was much quieter than the previous one.
It made him a little concerned about her.
The sky slowly turned dark, and Tammy landed on the ground.
They rested under a big tree.
Tammy silently handed the princess a chicken leg.
“Thank you." The princess accepted the chicken leg and smiled, “You are the gentlest dragon I have ever seen.”
Tammy: “You"ve seen other dragons before?”
“Well, my elder brother…” The princess said, “My brother was very close with a dragon for a while. That dragon was a bit bigger than you, and a little more ferocious."
“No wonder you"re not that afraid of me." Tammy asked, “What"s your name? Are you Pip Kingdom"s princess?"
“Yes, my name is Eliza, and I"m Pip Kingdom"s princess."
“My name is Tammy, and I"m the dragon from the mountains over there."
Eliza was stunned for a moment, then slowly opened her mouth and said, "My elder brother… My brother is also called Tammy."
