Star Iron: The Past and Present Life of the Gender-Swapped Dragon Lord

"Your clothes were really nice yesterday, why aren't you wearing them anymore?"

On the way down the stairs from Kripper Castle, Danheng, who had been silent, suddenly turned around and said something to Danheng, who was looking at the map.

Danheng: ...

You've been holding this in for so long, is this all you wanted to say?

Dan Heng had noticed that Dan Heng seemed hesitant to speak on the way to Kripper, as if he wanted to say something but was too embarrassed to speak.

But Danheng's words left Danheng speechless.

Staring with dead fish eyes, Dan Heng glanced at Dan Heng, who had already turned his head away, and continued to look down at the map in his hand.

"Yeah, Sister Danheng~ Why aren't you wearing it anymore?"

A cheeky voice popped into his head, just in time to shatter Danheng's hard-won focus on studying the map.

"Little Bai, I've been looking forward to this for so long! I'll be so sad if you don't wear it, big sister!"

"...Where did you learn that tone of voice?"

"Ah? A palace drama from my past life."

“...Speak normally from now on, don’t make me hit you.”

"Oh."

Suppressing the urge to punch himself in the head, Dan Heng took a deep breath.

Don't get angry, don't get angry. My heart is as cold as iron after listening to ten hours of Sino's lame jokes. It won't be stirred by such a small thing.

Although that's what he said, his hand holding the map unconsciously tightened its grip a little.

"Sister Danheng, I have some photos here..."

"Don't!"

"Hey→Hey↘Hey→Hey→Hey↗Hey↘"

"Nuwa!"

Just like last time, 4K high-definition photos flashed before my eyes again, and the person who took the photos even thoughtfully added the photo names.

For example: a picture titled "My Heart Is So Pure" depicting a shy girl holding clothes.

There are pictures of young girls in red caps called "Red-crowned Crane," as well as various shy photos that evoke a protective instinct in viewers, such as those of a girl half-concealing her face while playing the pipa.

As the photos played, a lewd, wicked laugh echoed in my mind. Just by hearing the figure, I knew that the guy called Xiaobai had laughed himself into a two-hundred-pound fat man.

She's the type who writhes like a maggot on the bed.

I knew yesterday's task was posted because this person wanted to see it!

Danheng was indignant, and the thought of the reward he received made him even angrier.

Last night, after changing out of her shameful clothes, Danheng opened the reward with great anticipation, only to find a few words inside.

"Do whatever is convenient."

Dan Heng's expression shifted from surprise to confusion to cold indifference in just one second.

But it will take her entire precious life to heal from that brief second.

If this continues, I feel my "hunting" will is about to reach its peak, and I need to find a way to get revenge on this arrogant little system.

It's unclear who the father and grandfather are anymore.

"Wow, why does Sister Danheng's expression suddenly seem so scary again?"

On March 7th, Qiong whispered something to herself, and Qiong nodded in agreement.

How long has this condition lasted?

"Uh...it seems like it was there when we first met."

"Hiss~ That's a bit serious."

"Doctor, you must save her!"

Boom--boom--

Two crisp echoes made the gradually bulging red bulge stand out even more. The "patient's family member" March 7 and Qiong, who called himself "the doctor," grimaced and squatted down with their hands covering their heads.

Dan Heng withdrew his fist expressionlessly, and a cold glare made San Yueqi and Qiong stand up tremblingly to keep up with the main group.

"..."

"What's wrong? Why have you been looking at the map?"

Dan Heng's voice came, and Dan Heng's gaze shifted from the rift in front of him.

"Something just doesn't feel right."

Dan Heng paused for a moment, "Are we just going to send the four of us to explore the Rift Realm like this?"

Before Danheng could speak, March 7th expressed his opinion.

"Doesn't this show that the High Guardian trusts us?"

"..."

Dan Heng remained silent, clearly indicating that his intervention had drastically altered the course of events.

What was supposed to be a search and arrest this morning turned into a meeting between Cocolia and the train crew, during which she entrusted a few of them with the task of exploring the Rift.

There seemed to be no problem, but Dan Heng, who knew about the ingredients of Cocoa, was worried about it.

The biggest problem is when there is no problem.

Is it still the same attack using Rift Creatures? Or something else...?

Forget it, we'll deal with whatever comes our way. Worrying won't change anything.

Unable to guess what Cocolia was thinking, Danheng simply stopped trying and chose to follow Cocolia's plan.

The truth will come out in time.

The group checked their belongings again and were about to leave when they heard a voice behind them.

"and many more!"

Looking back, Bronya came running up, panting.

"Wait a minute, everyone..."

Bronya wiped the sweat from her forehead.

"If you're going to the Rift Realm, please take me with you."

Dan Heng: "We have not received such a notification."

Danheng's meaning was clear: Cocolia hadn't told them Bronya would be coming when she entrusted them with the task.

Bronya looked slightly embarrassed and coughed lightly.

"I'm sorry, I heard today that you are going to explore the Rift."

“Everyone is taking risks for our Belloberg, so how can I just stand by and do nothing?”

Bronya placed one hand on her chest and said seriously.

"I am quite familiar with the Rift, so I volunteered to do my part."

"Do not……"

"That's great, thank you very much, Bronya."

Dan Heng interrupted Dan Heng, who was about to speak, and after giving him a look, looked at Bronya, who had a happy expression on her face.

Suppressing his doubts and trusting his teammate's judgment, Dan Heng followed Dan Heng, who was chatting and laughing with Bronya, and stepped into the Rift.

"By the way, what task did Mother give you?"

For safety's sake, the group walked closely together in the eroded corridor. Dan Heng and Qiong walked at the very back and the very front, respectively, while the three girls were in the middle. Bronya blushed slightly and shook her head, asking Dan Heng, who was holding the map, a question that seemed to linger on her.

"Hmm... Let's go here to retrieve some things."

"What! Here?"

She leaned closer to Danheng, whose fragrance was even stronger. But when she saw where Danheng's slender white fingers were pointing, she gasped in surprise.

"How could this be...here?"
