Even If I’m Reborn as a Cute Dragon Girl, I Will Still Make a Harem Book 6: Chapter 104: Caught Off Guard (part 4)

*Pant… pant…*

Lilith leaned against a wall, utterly exhausted, gasping as though her lungs were about to burst.

To escape the enraged Lesiah and Ciel, she’d been running nonstop for what felt like an eternity. Now her legs felt like they were floating on clouds—so weak and numb she could barely feel them.

“But… thankfully… I lost them.”

That was perhaps the only silver lining.

Lesiah was swinging her wood cleaver like a maniac, fighting 1,652 Ciel Hesses. The chaos gave Lilith just enough ti to free herself from the ropes and make a break for it.

But she couldn’t relax yet. Lesiah and Ciel could catch up at any mont, and with her flimsy arms, short legs, and combat ability hovering near zero, it would be instant defeat if they did.

“Co to think of it… where am I?”

Only now did Lilith take a mont to look around. Her frantic dash through the darkness had left her with no sense of direction.

Before her stretched a quiet street lined with rows of streetlights. The pavent was clean and orderly, and unlike the dim, hanging lamps from before, these streetlights glowed bright and steady. A few moths fluttered lazily around the bulbs, dancing in the light.

Benches lined the sidewalk.

“Finally, a place to rest.”

The mont Lilith spotted them, her eyes lit up. She plopped herself down on one of the benches at once.

They seed made for her, with just the right length and width. Lying on one felt no different than lying on a bed.

“Mmm, so comfy~”

After all that chaos, nothing felt better than lying down.

Lilith propped her head on one arm, ready to drift into a blissful nap. But…

“Lilith?”

A soft, familiar voice echoed down the empty street.

Lilith shot upright, tumbling off the bench in panic.

“I never agreed to elope with you! The child isn’t mine! Please, just let go—waaah!”

“Elope? Child? What on are you talking about?”

“Huh?”

Lilith looked up, blinking in confusion, only to realize the voice didn’t belong to Lesiah or Ciel. Instead, it was…

“Luna?”

“Yep, it’s .”

Under the streetlight stood Luna, bundled in a down jacket and scarf, holding sothing in her hand. She gave Lilith a puzzled once-over.

“Why are you sleeping out here, Lilith? Aren’t you afraid of catching a cold?”

“Catching a cold or not doesn’t matter anymore.”

Lilith sifted through the flood of mories that had suddenly appeared in her head, looking like she was about to flee at any mont.

“You… don’t happen to have so inescapable karmic debt with , do you? Or so grudge you want to repay?” she asked warily after a mont.

“Karmic debt? Grudge? What are you even talking about?” Luna tilted her head, clearly confused, then held up the object in her hand. “I’m just walking my dog.” ℞ÂNỐᛒËŚ

“Walking your dog?” Lilith finally realized that she was holding an ordinary leash. And at the other end stood a… massive husky?

It was the size of a small calf, with standard black and white fur, a wicked look, a crooked grin and a long tongue.

“Woof!”

The mont it noticed Lilith, the husky lunged like a bolt of lightning, knocking her flat and smothering her in enthusiastic licks.

“Mmph…! That tickles! Stop—hahaha! Luna! Quick, pull this damn dog off !”

“I… I’m trying!”

Luna pulled on the leash with all her strength.

“Htilil! Bad doggie! Let go!”

She leaned back with her whole body, but the husky was absurdly strong—dragging her forward instead of budging an inch.

Fortunately, Lilith, petite and nimble as ever, managed to wriggle free from beneath the furry beast.

“See? If you don’t have the strength, you shouldn’t keep such a big dog. Soone’s bound to get hurt.” Lilith dabbed her face dry with a handkerchief, scolding with mock severity.

“Sorry,” Luna apologized with an awkward smile, lightly slapping the husky on the head.

“Htilil! Bad doggie! Not good!”

“Woof!”

“Don’t you try to wriggle out of this! Even if you like her, you shouldn’t have done that! Now sit nicely!”

“Woof!”

“If you don’t behave, no supper for you tonight.”

“Woof-woof.”

The husky’s ears drooped as it sat down obediently.

Lilith stared in disbelief. “This dog… actually understands you?”

“Of course.” Luna patted the husky’s head proudly. “Htilil’s very well-behaved.”

“Wait—you said this dog’s na is Htilil?” Lilith rubbed her chin, frowning. “That’s… kind of an unusual na for a dog.”

“N-No way! Isn’t Htilil a totally normal na? My neighbor’s dim-witted son is called that too.”

“Really?”

“Of course, of course.”

Luna nodded vigorously, as if silently asking her: *How could soone as kind as ever lie to you?*

“Alright, fine. It’s just a na. Nothing worth overthinking.” Lilith quickly brushed off the odd feeling.

She was about to ask if there was a place nearby to hide from her pursuers when she noticed sothing strange about Luna.

Her fingers were clenched around the hem of her jacket, and her eyes were darting around. She looked like she wanted to say sothing but couldn’t bring herself to.

“Just say what’s on your mind.”

“Really?” Luna’s eyes widened. “I can really say it?”

*Huh? Again? Don’t tell you’ve got so shocking bombshell to drop too. Hmph. After the last two, I, Lilith, have built nerves of steel. No matter how outrageous it is, I won’t even flinch! I’ll just have to prepare myself to flee at any mont.*

Lilith subtly glanced around, noting how wide and open the area was. Perfect for a quick escape. Feeling relieved, she casually waved her hand.

“Go ahead, I’m listening.”

“Wonderful!” Luna’s face lit up with excitent, then she abruptly shoved sothing into Lilith’s hand.

Lilith blinked in confusion. It was a leash. “Wait… you want to tie up too?”

“No, no, no! Why would I tie you up?” Luna frowned, looking genuinely baffled. “Why would I ever do that?”

“Good,” Lilith exhaled in relief. “So, what did you actually want to say?”

“Well…”

Luna fidgeted, then pointed at the leash in Lilith’s hand and whispered, “Lilith, do you want to walk dogs too?”

“Walk… dogs?” Lilith was stunned. Of all the possible things Luna could’ve said, this wasn’t even on the list.

“That’s it?”

“Mm-hmm.” Luna nodded enthusiastically. “Walking dogs is fun.”

*Just walking a dog?*

Lilith stared down at the leash in her hand.

Well… even though she was still being hunted, walking a dog with Luna didn’t sound so bad. Besides, it was just a husky. How hard could it be?

“Fine then.” Lilith nodded, casually swinging the leash in her hand.

*Huh?*

Sothing felt wrong. The leash didn’t seem to be attached to the big dog at all.

*Wait a second…*

Lilith’s smile froze as she followed the leash upward, her gaze traveling slowly to its other end until she saw…

“Marvelous!” Luna’s face lit up with joy. She tossed her scarf aside, revealing a red collar around her neck, and exclaid eagerly, “Let’s get started!”
