Shut Up Dragon! I Don't Want To Have Children With You Anymore

Rossweise shook her head. "Noah knows more than most kids. Since she brought it up, we should start thinking about tomorrow's date."

Leon stopped pacing and looked at Rossweise. "Have you ever been on a date before?"

Rossweise spread her hands. "The first hundred years were spent on studies, and the next hundred on my career. Where would I find time for love or dates? What about you?"

"The first fifteen years were for studying, the next five for work…"

'And the last two years were spent raising kids.'

Rossweise covered her face and sighed. "Alright, we can't rely on any past experience, then."

With zero experience, there was indeed nothing to rely on.

Rossweise sat quietly for a moment before standing up and heading to her study.

Moments later, she returned to the living room holding several novels.

Rossweise placed the novels on the coffee table.

Leon leaned over to take a look. "Me and My Lover, Afternoon Nap, Eternal Love for the Albatross… What are these?"

"Novels." After a pause, she added, "Romance novels."

"I thought you spent your time in the study researching magic. Who knew you were secretly reading novels?"

Rossweise shot him a glare, ignoring his teasing, and got straight to the point.

"To provide Noah with suitable material for her essay, even if we're not good at dating, we must cram some knowledge about it tonight."

She patted the covers of the books. "Learning from these should be highly efficient."

It felt like a flashback to their entrance exam preparation nights when the couple crammed all night to pass.

But this time, they had only one night to prepare.

"Last-minute studying? If you put it that way, I'm suddenly not sleepy anymore."

Saying this, Leon sat next to Rossweise, and the two began flipping through the novels in front of them.

Of course, since Rossweise had already read these romance novels several times, she only picked out the sections about 'dating' to review.

Leon, on the other hand, didn't waste time reading every word. That would have taken too long.

Instead, he skimmed the table of contents, identified chapters that might involve dating, and jumped directly to those parts.

Each had their own methods, saving time and effort.

While reading, they also took notes, jotting down date ideas from the novels to sort through later.

After a few hours, Leon and Rossweise had thoroughly digested the dating sections of the romance novels.

Their notes were substantial.

The couple exchanged glances and shared a knowing smile of mutual understanding, like top students.

They compiled their notes and began filtering out ideas that suited them.

The first activity they decided on was "watching a ballet."

The theater would have a refined atmosphere with plenty of people, and all they'd need to do was watch the performance—no strange activities involved. Perfect for them.

"As for… a couple's bar… Nope, that's out," Rossweise said.

Leon nodded in agreement, as he wasn't great at handling alcohol.

Also, since this was for Noah's essay, she'd likely be observing them in secret. Getting drunk and losing composure during her research wouldn't be ideal.

The couple organized more date ideas that fit their situation.

What did "fit" mean?

It meant no silly couple games, no overly intimate physical contact, and activities that still conveyed the theme of "parental love" in a warm and wholesome way.

It wasn't easy, but they managed to piece together a list of date activities, enough to fill an entire day.

Leon looked at the list with satisfaction.

"Alright, as long as we stick to this plan tomorrow, nothing can go wrong."

Rossweise, for once, agreed with Leon.

"Exactly. We'll give our daughter the perfect material for her essay."

The couple popped a bottle of champagne to celebrate.

Little did they know, the last time they did this was the night before their entrance ceremony.

And the result? Well, those who know, know.

Would they be able to escape the champagne-induced jinx this time?

Director Noah K. Melkvei proudly presents: "Parental Love"

———

The next morning, Rossweise got ready for the date in Sky City.

She wore a pure white long dress, her silver hair tied back with a headband, and a small braid cascading along her cheek—the same braid Leon had secretly styled for her when she was asleep. Over time, it had become one of her signature looks.

Her delicate oval face had a light touch of makeup, enhancing her features. The minimal makeup complemented her queenly aura, making her appear elegant and graceful.

Leon, unusually, wore a sporty suit. It made him look both carefree and composed.

Since this was for their daughter's essay, they'd decided to dress their best.

Leon reminisced—it had been a long time since he last wore a suit, likely during their family photo session.

When the couple met outside, they instinctively looked each other up and down, then nodded in agreement.

"Finally, you look decent," Rossweise teased with a smile.

Leon rolled his eyes. "If you don't know how to compliment someone, just don't."

"Mommy, Daddy, are you ready?"

Noah came running from the sisters' room, her backpack on.

"All ready. We can leave anytime," Rossweise said.

Noah looked at their outfits and shook her head. "Nope."

The couple froze, staring wide-eyed at each other.

'This… isn't good enough?'

Rossweise patiently asked, "What's wrong with it?"

"Mommy, Daddy, you're going on a date, but your outfits are too formal and serious. You look like you're going on a blind date."

The couple exchanged glances.

Well, maybe they did look a bit too formal.

They'd focused too much on "quality" and "seriousness," forgetting the most important aspect of a date—being relaxed and natural.

A date, at its core, is playful and casual, distinct from a blind date.

"We'll go change into something else," Rossweise said.

"No need, Mommy. This morning, Anna and I went to the tribe's clothing store and picked out outfits for you two. Just change into these."

Noah pulled two outfits from her backpack and handed them to Leon and Rossweise.

The couple fully cooperated with "Director Noah's" arrangements.

Both went to their rooms to change.

Rossweise opened the bag to find a youthful and vibrant hoodie. The fabric felt smooth and comfortable to wear.

The hoodie was light gray, matching her hair color, with a cute cartoon bear design on the chest.

It looked nice, but Rossweise muttered, "Won't this make me look too childish?"

It wasn't about the image—it was just a style she'd never tried before.

After a moment of hesitation, she removed her long dress and put on the hoodie.

The hoodie's hem just barely covered her hips, so she added pants and boots to complete the look.

Standing in front of the mirror, Rossweise blushed. "It must be the pants shrinking, not me gaining weight."

Though the pants felt tight, they accentuated her figure well.

Rossweise, tall and beautiful, transformed from a queen into a forest-style, energetic girl.

Satisfied, she walked out of the room.

The moment she did, she saw Leon staring at her, dumbfounded.

Rossweise was about to ask why, but when she saw Leon's outfit, she froze too.

Their outfits were… matching.

Her hoodie was gray, while Leon's was black.

"Couple's hoodies…"

Indeed, Noah's understanding of dating was beyond their expectations.

"Yes, couple's hoodies! You're the stars of today's date, so of course, you should wear matching outfits." Noah explained proudly.

Leon could only silently add another line to his mental journal:"Wore matching clothes with a dragon."

"Well, Mommy looks beautiful, and Daddy looks handsome! Wow, you're even wearing matching outfits."

Just then, Luna ran over, followed by Anna.

Noah, with an all-knowing expression, explained to her little sister,"These are called couple's outfits. They show that Mommy and Daddy are a loving couple."

She emphasized the word "loving."

Luna didn't fully understand but cheered anyway, "Yay!"

Leon facepalmed. "Let's just start the date already, my dear daughter."

"Alright, Mommy and Daddy, you go ahead. Anna will take Luna and me later."

Noah arranged everyone's tasks seriously. "Throughout the date, you won't see us, so act naturally. That's the only way to get better results. Got it?"

Leon saluted playfully. "Yes, Director Noah!"

Ten minutes later, Rossweise transformed into her dragon form, carrying Leon to Sky City.

A few minutes later, Anna took the two little princesses and followed.

Since there were no internal conflicts or battles among the dragon clans, the group traveled smoothly to Sky City.
