Dragon (2)
My request to return to the academy was for very personal reasons.
I just wanted to get some rest.
I think the devil worshiper was talking nonsense, so people misunderstood something strange about raising the dead, but the princess also criticized me for my recklessness, so I was very embarrassed.
I don’t know anymore. I don’t want to think about anything anymore.
Watching the incident being dealt with here made me feel depressed, and seeing Priest Rhys kept reminding me of the names and faces of the dead.
I was a little concerned about the condition of Priest Rhys, whom I had worked so hard to revive, but thinking about it, there was nothing I could do more for.
However, in the middle of the place where such a disaster took place, I couldn’t confidently say that I needed to take a break because I had done enough, so the excuse I came up with was the academy.
It was almost certain from the atmosphere that this situation hadn’t ended yet, and I don’t know when it would be, but now I’m going to aim for that tree in the academy.
It was a pretty good excuse.
It might feel a bit strange to go to a place with a tree that might be the stage of an incident after saying that I would take a break, but I had my own thoughts.
Judging from what you just said, you seem to have attained a great realization, but isn’t it the right way for a strong man to take the time to embody what he has realized?
In addition, in order to access the greenhouse, you must eventually break through the academy’s security first. Even if something happens, you can prepare your mind in advance.
Of course, the princess, who had no way of knowing about this situation, was vehemently opposed, as if she thought that I was hiding something and trying to find the case again on my own feet, but for some reason, my sincere persuasion worked.
I don’t really know anything at all? I usually tell a lot of lies like I know a lot, but that’s only possible because there’s nothing to prove anyway.
I know it’s not very desirable to receive help one-sidedly, but today is so hard. Can’t you just help me? Just this once.
Maybe I benefited from managing my image on a daily basis. I wonder if it’s really hard when someone who used to work quietly dies.
The princess accepted my request without saying anything further.
Until I returned to the academy like that, I thought my judgment was not bad. Exactly, that was until I heard the news that the masters and dwarves dispatched from the imperial family suddenly started trying to kill each other in the greenhouse.
Why the hell would you do that all of a sudden?
Just before I come back, as if it was checking the moment I return?
Why are the two of them fighting in the first place? I heard that the master dispatched to protect the academy entered the greenhouse and soon after, the dwarven saint started attacking with question and answer, but I couldn’t understand it at all.
The imperial master who suddenly appeared could not have been the culprit, but the dwarves who were there, whom I personally confirmed, could not have been the culprit.
No matter how you look at it, there must have been some kind of misunderstanding. Both of them are in great positions anyway, so even if the situation escalates a little, it won’t lead to a life-threatening situation.
I didn’t take it that seriously.
To be honest, I didn’t want to get involved right now, but since I originally asked to go to the academy to get away from the church, it was difficult to change my mind here again.
Okay, let’s settle the misunderstanding between the two of us and then rest in peace.
The moment I made up my mind and entered the greenhouse where the confrontation was continuing, the shock I received was indescribable.
Everything entered a new phase.
The phrases overlapped as if there was something inside the body of the master who was confronting the dwarves.
dragon heart.
In an instant, the accident stopped.
I didn’t even notice that she was the same magician who accompanied the princess to the first meeting until the master discovered this and pulled away.
Even the status window hanging on the Master was full of incomprehensible things.
A unified dragon’s heart, dragon’s wisdom, dragon’s power, seething mana…
The only thing I could make out was bubbling mana, supposedly the buff the demon worshiper I was chasing put on the corpse knights.
Why… could the Master who appeared out of nowhere have something to do with this? What about the dragon?
All the disturbances so far have been the work of dragons, not devil worshipers? Is that why you can’t feel the dark magic?
It was full of incomprehensible things.
In the first place, there is no such thing as a ‘dragon’ officially in this world.
Humans, dwarves, elves, and beasts are all beings treated as intelligent beings in this land.
Of course, there are animals similar to lizards, and maybe there are reptiles with scales among the beasts, but they are literally beasts, not dragons.
A dragon, or dragon. If you are a fan of web novels or novels in this field, you can immediately recall its appearance and general characteristics just by listening to it.
Its overall biological appearance and characteristics are similar to lizards, but it is huge and, above all, powerful. In most novels, it is described as the suzerain of all magic.
In this world, there is no word for such a dragon, nor any record that such a creature existed.
But what I thought was a demon worshiper might actually be a dragon? I couldn’t figure out what the hell was going on.
However, on the contrary, there were also parts that gradually became clearer. Facts that I had overlooked until now, parts that I did not understand while chasing the devil worshipers, are now explainable.
The existence of a collaborator that was suspected from the beginning. The question of what kind of collaborator exists if it is not the Church of Calliul or the Church of Orion. It was difficult to re-establish, and there was too much information for such a newly established devil worshiper to know.
Especially knowing that I can read emotions.
Of course, I spoke through the princess at first, so maybe some members of the imperial family knew about it, but even the third prince didn’t seem to know about him, so those who knew were really very few.
It was strange to think that the story leaked because the emperor or the princess had a relationship with a person whom the emperor or princess trusted enough to tell the story and a devil worshiper. this has been resolved
If I had become a master of the imperial family, it wouldn’t have been difficult for me to get in touch with what happened in the process of dealing with the devil worshipers, and I would have been able to come across information about people whose corruption was delayed, which naturally became a full-fledged clue.
Above all, he was able to explain why the dwarves attacked the master at once.
If the dwarves figured out in some way that the master was the real culprit, considering the possibility that even if they found out and told the truth, they wouldn’t believe that the other person was the master of the imperial family. It would have had no choice but to use force to stop the opponent.
After grasping the situation, I finally opened my mouth.
“You really didn’t think I would believe that, did you?”
He pretended not to be so while talking with the princess, but at a glance he could see that all his nerves were focused on me and he was wary of me.
I don’t think that wizard really thinks he can fool me with these words.
Just as the dwarves gave up convincing other humans that their master was a traitor, they must be using the people around them to sway me.
At least, it was information that no one knew that I could read information about that person at a glance, and if I only knew that I could read the other person’s emotions, it was a move worth trying.
It’s about being wary of me. If you’re thinking that my feelings can be read, it’s a feeling you can have enough of, and if you don’t give me a chance to directly ask if you’re a traitor, I’ll be able to trick you somehow.
In fact, even though I asked so directly, I continued to act, wondering if I had noticed all the facts.
However, by changing the direction of the acting, it created an atmosphere of pretending to attack accidentally, as if they decided to deal with me right away.
From the looks alone, it seemed like they were protesting by casting great magic in protest, as if to ask me to cancel those words right away, but because of the sharpened intent to kill, I was able to immediately recognize that it was just smoke.
As soon as the barriers were erected, an explosion occurred immediately, and after the surprise, the smoke gave up, and eventually the wizard began to reveal his true colors.
There were many things I wanted to ask the wizard.
I thought about it just now, but I understood the situation through the fact that the wizard betrayed me, but I still didn’t know anything about the existence of a dragon or the secret stories related to it.
But ahead of all those questions, there was only one question that came out of my mouth.
The wizard was neither brainwashed nor forcibly stimulated by his own desires and consumed by those desires.
It meant that he had betrayed the empire and cooperated with his own will.
Why? What is lacking in the Master of the Empire, who is being treated without hesitation?
I’m going through this high school to live that comfortable life?
Did you make that choice even though you knew that the people of the empire would die like that, even though you lived comfortably, even risking turning the world into an enemy?
why?
“why…!”
The princess also asked the wizard a similar question, as if she had similar thoughts.
And after receiving that question, the magician spoke incomprehensible words with intoxicated emotions, and then began to have murderous intentions against me again.
Because I am superior to others, do I always lose my composure?
What world line is that Ronan from? Please exchange with me.
It was nonsense that I didn’t even have the heart to respond to.
But even I couldn’t help but tilt my head at what he said next.
The opponent was a wizard.
And sorcerers were the most distant from God in the world. In a sense, more priests than devil worshipers, people on the other side of the gods.
The story of God coming out of such a person was so out of the blue. Even the talk seemed to have nothing to do with devil worshipers.
Is that heart actually the heart of a forgotten god? Or is that heart actually also the product of a devil worshiper, who lies to insult God and deceive people, and is tricked by the sorcerer?
It was just incomprehensible words, but unfortunately, the other side didn’t seem to have any intention of letting me solve such questions.
sudden sentence.
The phrase “unified dragon’s heart” began to change to the word “yonginhwa,” and the wizard, whose eyes had turned into vertical pupils, stretched out his hand and grabbed the air.
“Everybody die!”
And, I could roughly feel what the magician meant when he said the power of God.
A rain of countless sparks starting to fall from the sky.
There were no grandiose magic circles and no long sentences.
As if I had made up my mind and struck a thunderbolt from the sky, innumerable sparks began to fall from the sky without any warning.
“Avoid everyone!”
Someone who looked at the scene let out a scream close to screaming, and watching the mayhem unfold in an instant, I also stretched my hand upwards.
There were still many unanswered questions, but one thing was certain.
That there is a guy with no morals who hasn’t done his duty as a strong man right now.
In the end, there was only one thing I had to do.
Kicking it all while enjoying everything I want to enjoy, and beating that woman who is trying to get the power of that god even by killing people.
What? I monopolize the power of a god and use it to relax?
Once the goal was clear, I felt a little better.
I felt like I would feel a little better after I beat that nonsense woman to my heart’s content.
The strength of the opponent was unknown, and it was possible to think that it might have a great power that has never been experienced in this world, just with the power that was just shown.
Even though it could possibly lead to a life-and-death battle, I didn’t want to run away unexpectedly.
The flames pouring from the sky were blocked by the barrier I had created and vanished in vain. It wasn’t without a burden, but it was enough to block it.
If it’s like this…?
When I regained some confidence and looked at the place where the wizard was, the wizard was already gone.
what?
“It’s too easy to fight a kid with delusional delusions of protecting everyone.”
And the wizard who appeared right in front of me threw out his fist.
The wide-area attack was just a trick to get my attention?
The barely created barrier was easily broken by the magician’s fist.
The magician’s fist blocked by the barrier for a very short time was closer to that of a monster than a human fist.
A fist covered in scales and with sharp claws growing out of it.
Wait. No matter how much there was a hint of Yonginhwa, isn’t this too much?
At least, there is no magician in the world who is not a magician who uses actual magic, but who openly engages in close combat.
It may be a life-and-death battle, but just because I said I wouldn’t run away, didn’t mean I would really risk my life.
The moment I think about it and anticipate the shock to come.
Snuggle Geek!
Something cut in front of me with a creepy sound like scratching an iron plate.
“Princess! Now!”
Contrary to the resounding sound of the dwarf’s voice, it was a gigantic piece of armor that stood in front of me and was 2m tall.
I thought about it once while watching the knight commander, but it seems like a bit of a foul for a dwarf to become huge.
“Haap!”
“Die witch!”
Then, following the voice of the dwarf, the knight commander and the princess rushed from behind the wizard.
The moment when it seemed that a fatal blow would follow immediately as the dwarf saint who was blocking the attack was holding the wizard’s hand tightly.
Caang!
This time, the attack of the princess and the knight commander bounced off with a metal sound.
“What is that…?”
“A tail… is it?”
It’s different, really.
The tail sprouting from the back of the magician before he knew it, repelled the attacks of the princess and the knight commander.
“It’s a little unpleasant. You’re not my taste. Could you let go of my hand?”
“Keugh.”
In addition, flames rose from the magician’s hand that the saint held onto, so the saint had no choice but to let go of his hand as well.
“Protect the princess!”
The knights, who were seized by the sight, tried to join us.
“f*ck off the small pikes.”
With the sound of the wizard, a strange feeling of pressure began to press down on the surroundings.
bang!
Even that was not enough, and the land around them began to ooze with the mage’s footsteps, and monsters made of soil with only limbs existing began to emerge.
“Is this… magic? Ludmilla, aren’t you… a fire mage?”
“Ahahahahaha! I told you! I achieved the state of a god with magic!”
The princess looked at the scene and said in disbelief.
Magic is different from holy magic.
Since everything is cast by thoroughly grasping the phenomenon and then reconstructing the phenomenon through calculations and theories, there was no magic in the world that could be cast in a rule-of-thumb way without understanding the phenomenon.
There is no magic in the world that gives weight to so many people. Everyone feels pressure in a slightly different way, and no one understands the mindset of the intelligent body and the absolute truth that it works.
In addition, fire wizards specialize in fire magic, earth wizards specialize in earth magic, and lightning wizards specialize in thunderstorms… In this way, the nature of mana gradually changes depending on the magic you deal with.
If you are a beginner who has just entered magic, you may not know, but a person who has devoted his whole life to fire magic and won the status of a master with fire magic will be able to handle fire magic with hand gestures, but on the contrary, there are more and more restrictions on casting magic of other attributes. It was getting worse.
Therefore, it was common knowledge that it was impossible for a fire mage to create hundreds of earth golems with a single launch, even for a great mage. Until now.
Until now, the absolute common sense of magic had been shattered by the magician in front of him.
With a single gesture, it rains fire without warning, puts pressure on the minds of people around it, and raises hundreds of golems with a single stomp.
A feast of unified, non-magical powers.
It was only now that I could understand to some extent what the wizard was talking about God.
This was already an ability closer to holy magic than magic.
Judging from the scale of casting so far, it handles magic close to the level of holy magic that might be similar to mine,
Huung-
Now, without even thinking about hiding it, the sound of the mage’s tail waving here and there pierced the air.
An enemy capable of handling three knights at the level of the knight commander, the saint, and the princess at the same time, even with his physical abilities?
The worthwhile thought I had just had was quickly disposed of in the trash.
“Now, try your best. It may be meaningless.”
Isn’t this seriously a balance patch error? Gods what are you doing.
For the sake of peace in the human world, take responsibility and bring them up.
