Chapter 34

Bayan brushed off his hands as if nothing was wrong and pushed away the younger cousins.

"Ah, it's fine. How could a shrimp bite leave a mark?"

"Hey, which shrimp can make you so red? I'm curious too."

"......"

Bayan's smile froze, then he chuckled.

For a moment, he extended his hand again, but I easily dodged it.

'You've gotten a bit faster.'

I was busy gauging.

How did I deal with Agénor?

But would my abilities work on a kid his age in my current state?

'If they don't work, what will I do? I have to make them work.'

Moreover, I wasn't alone.

From behind, a hand grabbed me, accompanied by the sound of "Gongnyo-nim."

"Ah? Right. Sure. You're not just Pierre's kid, are you?"

I twisted my lips.

"Don't call my dad casually. Who's dad is named after a dog? Do you want me to call you a Rodesen dog too?"

"Huh?"

Rodesen. My uncle's name.

Bayan's eyes narrowed in anger and then curved.

"Right. That's what I mean."

Bayan extended his hand again.

I easily dodged, but soon my face turned to one of frustration.

Oh no, I wasn't the target!

"Aah!"

"U, ugh, hah, hah!"

Luga's head was grabbed and pulled by Bayan.

I quickly clenched my fists and struck Bayan's arm.

Despite the clear sound of something breaking, Bayan didn't let go!

'Damn, even if you're a sardine, you're still rotten!'

Bayan laughed wickedly while holding Luga.

"Hey, our little cousin sister is worried about such a small creature? Not very whale-like."

"Not very whale-like is your age. Do you even know how old the kid you're holding is?"

Luba sobbed and clung to me.

I held Luba's hand and looked around.

'They've surrounded us. This is deliberate.'

Luga, who was crying, stopped and tried to hold back her tears.

From the look on her face, it seemed she was forcing herself to stop for my sake.

"It's me, Hah, Hah!"

I looked at Luga, who was trying to hold back her tears, and my heart ached.
