Chapter 370: Ice (3)
—Kkuukku. 『Father, what’s going on?』
—Kkyuit? 『Grandpa, why?』
Seol, Bing, and Dong all poked their heads out from Hwa-eun’s collar, looking at me.
I had only called for Seol, but I guess since they were family, they all popped out together.
“Ah, nothing serious. I just wanted you guys to shoot some cold energy into this friend here.”
—Kkoot? 『To the sick one?』
—Kkuukkuu? 『Excuse me!?』
—Kkyuit? 『A-Are we hitting them?』
As soon as I finished speaking, the three lizards’ vertical pupils widened in unison, then slowly returned to normal.
They’d all been shocked, eyes wide, just because I said “shoot cold energy.”
It made sense, since it sounded like I wanted them to attack something that looked like it could die today or tomorrow, using their newly learned cold beam.
Without context, Dong’s cute question wasn’t so far off—they probably thought I was asking them to hit a helpless patient.
