For dragons, blending in among humans while concealing their true identity is considered a form of entertainment—a game.

A Gold Dragon enrolls in an academy under the guise of learning herbology, using it as an excuse to indulge in his own game. Taking on the false identity of ‘Adrian Heather’, he eagerly begins his academy life.

However, his excitement is short-lived. He unexpectedly ends up sharing a dorm room with the esteemed Prince Mikhail—a situation that drastically alters his original plans.

Though his days with Mikhail turn out to be unexpectedly enjoyable, the Gold Dragon’s ultimate goal remains the same: to finish this game quietly and disappear.

And so, he does. By faking his own death, he vanishes from his friend’s life, believing the game to be over.

That is, until his friend summons him back with a wish…

Mikhail, now in possession of a dragon’s golden scale, stroked it lightly.

As if responding to the touch, the legendary Gold Dragon materialized before him.

“Summoner, I shall grant you one wish.”

But why did this dragon look exactly like Adrian Heather?

Suspicious, the prince demanded an explanation, but the Gold Dragon remained adamant in his denial.

“I merely manifested in the form the Summoner desired.”

After a brief moment of hesitation, Mikhail finally stated his one and only wish…

“I want to find Adrian Heather’s body.”
