「Since it can’t be helped, I’m going to grant you my blessing.」
She forcefully pulls Ritone, and kisses him.

「○△▲×凹凸凹!!!」
Pain was coursing throughout his entire body.
「Don’t make a fuss! Right now, I’m injecting you with dragon’s blood. Hold on for a bit!」
Still kissing him, she talked to him telepathically. The suffering that felt like eternity ended abruptly.
「Haaa…haaa…」
After all of it, Ritone fell on the floor.
「Hou~, you withstood that. You, at least, have some willpower. Listen well, the blood that I injected you with is both a blessing and a curse. If you ever harm my child or become an evil existence, it will activate the curse and eat you from the inside.」
Listening to Mother Dragon’s words, Ritone was carving his thoughts deep inside.
(I know. The hero was able to become strong to the point that he could win against the demon king, thanks to Mother Dragon’s blessing. Later, his demise was also due to the curse of her blood. And with this, I’m able to stand at the hero’s starting point.)
Ritone was happy deep inside but fell into despair after her next words.
「My blessing is 「Limit Break」. You won’t die easily, and as you train harder, you will become stronger. Nevertheless, even though your physical strength and magic power were strengthened, you’re still weak.」
「Eh? So I’m unable to protect Milky then?」
Thinking that he got a cheat ability, he felt disappointed as his prediction was off.
「Don’t worry about it. My child still requires my milk. From now on, I have to come every day to breastfeed her, so in the meantime, I will train you thoroughly. Like the Hero Artemis, you will protect my child.」
Seeing Mother Dragon’s smile as she said that, Ritone felt insecure about his life from now on.
