Shut Up, Malevolent Dragon! I Don't Want to Have Any More Children With You-Chapter 2Vol 4. : The Whole World Knows You’re Married
“Ow, ow, ow! That hurts! Be gentle!”
Inside the Cosmod Orphanage, the cries of the dragon-slaying hero echoed. Just half an hour ago, this revolutionary who declared the fall of the old Empire before a corrupt king, and who led the Lionheart Society to free the people from oppression, now sat in a wheelchair.
The destructive power of the Ninth Gate was astounding, and Leon had survived thanks to Rosvisser’s protective dragon scale, but that didn’t mean there was no cost.
His right leg, the one that had obliterated the Primordial Nightmare, was now encased in a cast.
“It’s been temporarily treated with healing magic, but you’ll need to rest for a while,” Rebecca said, squatting beside the wheelchair and tapping the cast on Leon’s leg. She added with a playful smirk, “Tsk, tsk, tsk. After so many years of fighting, this is the first time I’ve seen you this badly hurt. Any thoughts on this new experience, Captain?”
Leon shot her a sideways glance, exasperated.
“Don’t think that just because I’m in a wheelchair, I can’t handle you.”
Rebecca’s bright eyes blinked mischievously as she stood up and snuck behind his wheelchair. She grabbed a wooden stick and wedged it firmly between the wheels, immobilizing it.
Then she returned to face him, hands on her hips, looking smug.
“Well then, catch me if you can.”
Leon tried to move the wheelchair, but the stick held it tightly in place, preventing even the slightest movement.
“Nyah-nyah~”
Rebecca stuck out her tongue at him playfully.
“Little girl, you’d better not get too cocky. Pain doesn’t just disappear—it shifts. Guess who’s next when I recover?”
Rebecca huffed, crossing her arms. “I don’t care! Carpe diem! It’s not every day I get to bully you. I’m going to get Martin to join in!”
Leon: ?
Betrayal! Pure betrayal!
Amid their playful banter, Rosvisser and Claudia returned to the orphanage.
“We didn’t find Queen Elizabeth, but we captured all of her henchmen like Scott,” Nacho reported. “They’ll be thoroughly investigated and judged based on their actions over the years.”
During Canter’s reign, these corrupt royals had his protection, preventing even the most upright officials from challenging them. But with Canter’s fall, the investigation could proceed without restraint.
Leon nodded. “So, they didn’t give up Elizabeth’s location?”
Elizabeth was Canter’s wife, and even a child wouldn’t believe she wasn’t involved in the Empire’s oppression. Leon had intended for both of them to face the people’s judgment, but only Canter was captured, and Elizabeth had vanished.
Nacho shook his head. “Nothing. It’s like she vanished into thin air.”
Leon sighed. “When disaster strikes, people scatter.”
“We’ll continue to track her down.”
“Good. Be safe.”
“Got it. We’re heading out now. Come on, Rebecca.”
“I’m not done bullying the captain.”
“Let’s go!”
Martin walked up and hoisted the petite Rebecca onto his shoulder.
“Martin! You don’t know the terrifying things the future holds! We need to take advantage while he’s in a wheelchair!” Rebecca protested, kicking her legs as Martin carried her away.
Her voice gradually faded into the distance.
Leon chuckled, shaking his head. “That girl is something else.”
“Now that everything is settled, I should head back,” Claudia said. “I’ve been away for a while, and the Sea Dragon Clan needs me. Plus, I need to inform Charlotte and your mentor of what’s happened. They must be worried sick.”
“Thank you. Please tell them I’ll visit as soon as I wrap things up here,” Leon said.

“Of course.”
Claudia smiled. “Don’t forget the promise you two made me.”
At that, Leon and Rosvisser exchanged a glance, nodding in unison.
“We won’t forget, senior. Just bring Helena over when the time comes,” Leon assured.
Claudia nodded, satisfied. “See you both soon.”
“Safe travels, senior.”
With their farewells exchanged, Claudia transformed into a blue-scaled dragon and soared into the night sky.
Rosvisser watched her disappear into the distance before turning her gaze to the man in the wheelchair. Leon, sensing her eyes on him, slowly turned to meet her stare.
The two exchanged looks until Rosvisser broke the silence.
“So, now the whole world knows that the great dragon-slaying hero married a dragon wife.”
Leon knew she was referring to their public embrace and kiss witnessed by thousands. It was already a sensational revelation that a dragon slayer had married a dragon.
And yet, he hadn’t even told them that not only had he married a dragon, but they also had three children together.
Leon smirked and put on a mock-serious face.
“So what? You didn’t object, did you?”
Rosvisser paused, then playfully kicked one of the wheels on his chair.
“Not objecting doesn’t mean I agreed.”
Leon: ?
Ah, here we go, fighting again right after toppling an empire. The queen truly knew how to throw punches!
Leon knew she was teasing in her usual tsundere way, so he played along.
“Well, there was no helping it, Your Majesty. The atmosphere was perfect. It’d be wrong not to kiss you.”
Rosvisser’s cheeks flushed as she turned away. “Idiot...”
As the couple bantered and exchanged sweet words, more injured people were brought into the orphanage’s front yard. Although the battle hadn’t resulted in any civilian deaths, many were still injured.
The hospitals in several districts were at full capacity, but thankfully, the nuns at the orphanage had basic first-aid knowledge and could handle minor injuries.
Leon himself had arrived only recently.
Among the injured, Leon spotted a familiar figure.
Konstantin entered the courtyard, his expression a mix of disdain as he muttered, “How do humans live in such rundown places?” He scanned the area, and when he spotted Leon, he strode over.
“Leon.”
Konstantin stopped before him, glancing at his cast-covered leg. “What, is it completely broken?”
“...It’ll heal.”
“Good. I need to be the one to defeat you at full strength.”
“Ha, you dragon kings are always so humorous.”
“Enough jokes. When will you give me those Primordial manuscripts you promised?”
Leon scratched his head, eyes darting as he thought quickly. He replied with feigned seriousness.
“I just wrapped up the Empire business. There’s still a lot to do. I’ll get them to you as soon as I finish.”
The promise was as vague as ever.
Konstantin narrowed his eyes, studying Leon.
Leon met his gaze calmly.
After a moment, Konstantin said, “Fine. I’ll wait. Oh, and—”
“Leon!”
A cheerful voice interrupted their conversation.
They turned to see Sister Sharon and Teacher Caroline approaching.
“Sharon, Teacher Caroline,” Leon greeted them with a smile.
“Leon,” Caroline said, smiling as she walked up. “You’ve worked hard.”
“It’s nothing. The trouble’s over now. No one will cut the orphanage’s funding again.”
“Thank you so much for everything.”
“Don’t mention it. I was just clearing my name and saving the people in the process.”
Rosvisser, standing nearby, covered her face, silently shaking her head.
There he goes again.
Even Konstantin sighed, internally questioning, *Why in the world did I lose to this idiot?*
“Leon, you’re unbelievable,” Sharon said, pouting. “Why didn’t you tell us you were back? And why the disguise?”
Leon scratched his head. “Well, it wasn’t the right time to reveal myself. I didn’t want to bring unnecessary trouble to you.”
Sharon blinked, processing his words. “I see...”
“Exactly.”
“But even so, did you have to use the name ‘Konstantin’?”
Leon froze and glanced sideways at the real Konstantin.
The Red Flame Dragon King’s face was expressionless, but his eyes held an unmistakable urge to crush Leon’s wheelchair.
“Konstantin... What’s wrong with that name? It’s strong and mighty.”
To avoid further trouble, Leon decided to praise the name, even if insincerely.
“It’s not mighty at all! It’s harsh and nowhere near as nice as yours, Leon!”
“...”
“Hey, human,” Konstantin finally spoke, his voice laced with dragon king authority. “I am Konstantin.”
Sharon: ...
Oops, that was awkward.
In the dim pre-dawn light, Sharon hadn’t noticed that the imposing figure behind Leon was indeed the real Konstantin and not a member of the Lionheart Society.
Konstantin’s tone was so commanding that it frightened Sharon a bit. Caroline quickly stepped in front of her to shield her from the dragon king, fearing a sudden shift in his mood.
Although the dragon kings had helped overthrow the Empire, the stereotype of dragons being violent and bloodthirsty was deeply ingrained in the minds of the Empire’s citizens.
Expecting them to change their views so soon was unrealistic.
“Konstantin, you’re scaring my friends,” Leon said.
Konstantin snorted. “These humans are tiresome.”
The Red Flame Dragon King wouldn’t stoop to arguing with a young girl. With a flick of his sleeve, he turned and walked toward the entrance.
Standing at the orphanage gate was a blue-haired man: Fael.
Before leaving, Konstant
in glanced back. “Leon, until next time.”
With that, a massive iron-blue dragon appeared on the street, startling everyone in the yard.
Fael spread his wings and took off into the # Nоvеlight # night sky with Konstantin.
Caroline let out a sigh of relief.
“I’ve never seen a dragon up close before...”
She looked at Leon. “So, what are your plans now?”
Leon thought for a moment. “I’ll stay in the Empire for a few days to help Rebecca and the others wrap things up. And then...”
“And then?”
“I’ll go home with my wife.”
