The Dragon Lord System
DLS - 138

I just nodded to Lithos and at that very moment Lithos said to me about sebas who was still crying.

"In that case, quickly calm down your beautiful son, I can't bear to see him cry as much as he likes to" he told me, hinting at me to look at the sebas and stopping his cries.

I approached Sebas, who was still crying with tears in his eyes, and with heavy breathing, like a little boy who was being scolded by his parents.

With sincere feelings, I realized that my actions towards Sebas were too excessive.

He had made a noise that was actually unnecessary, but it was all because of his affection and respect for me.

Maybe I was too quick to get angry and scold him, without thinking about his feelings.

I thought for a moment about my age. Even though my body is now a powerful and huge dragon, I am actually still young. My human lifespan is 21 years, and it has been three years since I became a dragon. If summed up, I'm only 24 years old.

I feel that my emotions are still like an immature young man, and maybe I'm not ready to be an "parent".

With a slightly greater feeling of regret and maturity, I approached Sebas who was still shedding tears.

This time, I wanted to give him the support he needed without having to involve anger or climbing.

Right now, I feel like I'm becoming a parent who has to learn to deal with unstable emotions.

With seven children on the side, each with a unique personality, I realized that this role was not an easy task.

I raised my face to the vast sky and let out a long sigh.

My role as a parent has required me to lower my ego and increase my patience.

All this for their sake, my children who are now my dependents.

Being a parent turned out to be much more difficult and exhausting than I had imagined before.

Regretfully, I turned to Sebas, who now looked much younger than before.

I felt so sorry for the anger and harsh words I had shown him, that I even kicked him out of my sight. I know that my actions have hurt her.

Sebas was still sobbing at will, lowering his head.

If he looked closely, his body trembled, as if he was terrified.

I feel so weird about the transformation Sebas is doing.

In the past, he was an old geezer who called me "father" and behaved spoiled to me.

It was already strange enough for me to feel as a young human in my 20s trapped within this dragon body.

However, now, she had changed her appearance to a lot younger when following me to the human city.

I couldn't help but feel shocked and somewhat in disbelief that Sebas was actually doing something as weird as that.

This transformation made everything feel even stranger.

Suddenly, my understanding opened up like a light illuminating my mind.

She must have wanted to look younger in front of me when we were in the human city.

The goal, to be closer to me, was to treat myself like a father, and more importantly, so that no one would look at him strangely or laugh at him when he called me "daddy" in the middle of these humans.

Just imagine if we entered the human city without any change in appearance.

I, disguised as a human in heavy armor, and Sebas with the appearance of an old geezer.

Everyone would have thought that Sebas was my father, and I was his son in human appearance.

He probably didn't want such a scenario.

Looking at the extent of the effort Sebas had put in, I felt deeply moved.

He had thought deeply and changed his appearance so drastically that my role as his father would not change.

I remain the figure of his father, and he will be my son in this human environment.

Aware of his dedication and extraordinary efforts, a smile I could not bear again appeared on my face.

I felt guilty for my anger earlier.

Although Sebas had a strong and tough body, in my eyes, they were all children who needed the affection and guidance of a father from me.

I know I have to apologize to him.

With a heavy heart, I humbled myself, crouching before Sebas. Our height difference was so striking; I was 250 cm tall and Sebas was 'only' 185 cm.

I couldn't see her face clearly as she lowered her head, so I slowly raised her face with my big hands.

I watched Sebas's face still full of tears, with snot straws on his face.

Seeing her like this made me feel even more guilty and regretful for my stupid anger earlier.

But I knew, this time I had to act as a understanding and gentle father.

And at that very moment our eyes met and looked at each other, while it was still trembling and frightened when he saw me, maybe he thought I would scold him back.

But because his face was filled with tears that seemed to be swollen with tears, and with snot falling down his mouth I only smiled because he was like a little boy.

I also took a tissue in the storage room in my lens, I wiped all the tears and snot as hard as his face with warmth slowly like a parent who loves his child.

and I told him to breathe hard so that his snot could go all out.

Sebas, though still crying and afraid of me, did so so that I could wipe his face clean.

After a while, I managed to wipe away all the snot and tears that had soaked Sebas' face.

Then, I put both my hands on his shoulders.

Surprisingly, when I touched her, her expression looked as if she was in pain.
