Kidnapped Dragons

what battle she would face in the future, Yeorum could reflect on her current memories and settle her emotions. 

However, the situation wasn’t just over yet.

“You damn mother f*ckers! Stay right there!”

It was when they were about to leave with the card.
Perhaps because they had lost a million dollars in a single game, large men wearing black suits came running towards them holding guns in hand. 

There were 7 in total, and it was clear to both Yeorum and Yu Jitae that they were related to Dennis.
A million dollars was enough to drive a small organisation in the town like them crazy. 

Bang bang bang bang–!

Ear-splitting sounds of firearms echoed as the chandeliers dropped from the ceiling.

“Uaah! Those lunatics are back at it again!”

“R, run! Hide under the table!”

It was chaos.

The gamblers pushed each other away as they ran as some of them fell.
Tables flipped and the surprised dealers quickly took out shotguns but another round of firearms caused them to fall. 

Kyaaak! A sharp scream of a woman resonated above the gunshots, as well as someone’s desperate cry for police. 

It was when Yu Jitae, placed in the centre of the incident, was about to move his body.

“Yu Jitae!”

Yeorum grabbed him by the arm. 

Strangely enough, her expression was filled with excitement.

“Let’s run away!”

“What are you doing.
Let go.”

“You’re my slave! You have to listen to me…!”

Saying that, she wrapped her arms around his and started pulling him. 

Why was she like this, and why did they have to run away?

He was thinking that but suddenly remembered an American drama that he had watched some time last year with Yeorum and Gyeoul.
The protagonists who had been gambling in the underworld running away after hearing gunshots… maybe Yeorum had remembered the same thing.

Yu Jitae suddenly found this red hatchling to be like a young kid.
Things like the heart of a beast and the calm temperament of a hero all sounded laughably unsuitable now.

He sometimes forgot it since she always acted like a mature adult, bleeding in her zealous efforts but…

Yeorum had just turned seventeen.

“Hurry, hurry up! Let’s run…!”

Thinking that, Yu Jitae decided to play along with the child.

Together they ran past other people, jumped over fallen tables and headed to the exit.
The moment they opened the door they were welcomed by three people pointing their firearms at them to stop their escape.

Bang bang bang–!!

When the guns fired their bullets, Yu Jitae stood in front of Yeorum and stopped the bullets with his body.
Dozens of S-ranked protective blessings within his body snatched the kinetic energy from the bullets making them drop powerlessly.
He then took one of the guns and swung it like a club. 

These guys were a bunch of rogues that put their lives on the line for just 2 million dollars.
They had chosen this place as their hideout because people couldn’t use magic in Las Vegas: Paradise.
That was also why they were using firearms as their weapons but they were naturally powerless before well-trained superhumans. 

Kkang–!

The head of one of the villains exploded.
Startled, the other two placed their fingers on their triggers but a foot came flying in.
It was Yeorum’s flying side kick.
With a loud bang, one of the remaining two lost his chin.
His head was turned to the side as his heavy body fell down the staircase. 

Lastly, the remaining person with a body especially bigger than others tried to physically stop them.
However, he seemed to have guessed that it wouldn’t work out and appeared fairly flustered.
Yu Jitae grabbed the guy by his neck and casually tossed him as the large muscular superhuman weighing around 340kg helplessly rolled down the stairs.

“Grab them–!”

Seemingly out of their minds, the members of the gang pursued them while shooting their guns from behind.
Once the two of them left the building, they found a truck driving towards them.
As the hysterical chase began, Yeorum and Yu Jitae quickly turned a corner which the truck followed with an excessive drift.

It was impossible to dodge without using mana.
Thinking that, the driver of the truck drove into the two of them despite the casino building being in front of it.

Kwanng!!!

A loud explosion covered the area. 

From the midst, Yu Jitae carried Yeorum and jumped out, reaching 20 metres in height without even using mana. 

“Kyahahaha! Those retards–!”

Being carried like a princess with her eyes gazing at the blazing scene of the explosion beneath her, Yeorum laughed herself to death. 

That seemed to be the end of their eventful day.
Superhuman police officers appeared in the distance and the surprised rogues began running away. 

“Ohh…! Wow.
Look at that…!”

However, the place Yu Jitae landed after the jump happened to be the terrace of the ballroom located on the 6th floor of the casino.

“W, who are you guys!”

“Oh my!”

A couple that had been intoxicated by their champagne and the atmosphere had been sharing a deep kiss but startledly jumped away after spotting them.
Inside the building were people entangled and dancing under the brilliant lights.
The building had great soundproof walls and they were absorbed in their entertainment no matter what was happening outside. 

“Hey slave.
Let’s dance together.”

“What?”

“Hurry up…! I feel crazy good right now! I probably won’t dance ever if not today you know?”

He hesitated, thinking why he had to dance all of a sudden but it just served to prove how excited Yeorum was.

In any case, it wasn’t the right condition for a dance.
Yu Jitae wearing a business shirt, slax pants and shoes was alright, but Yeorum was still wearing a t-shirt.

“You don’t match the dress code do you.”

Hearing that, Yeorum flicked her head towards the woman who had been sharing a deep kiss.

“Unni.
Sorry but let me borrow your clothes for a bit.”

“Uh, huhh?! What are you…!”

She was no different from a gangster herself.

That night was literally a chaos.

In the end, wearing the borrowed dress, Yeorum danced with Yu Jitae under the chandelier lights.
However, Yeorum was not the protagonist of a drama and didn’t know how to dance despite the atmosphere.

Thus, she kept on stepping on Yu Jitae’s feet until he became slightly irritated at last.
He said ‘Just forget it,’ as Yeorum once again laughed till she gasped for breath.

That was how they spent that night.

From sunrise all the way till noon, 

The sound of laughter did not leave her mouth.
