Chapter.42 Long Wish

***

A blond-haired man in human form appeared in front of the black dragon’s corpse.

It looks like a human, but it is not a human.

It only took on human form to hide its mana as much as possible and move around.

The man looked around at the black dragon’s corpse with a sad face. There were almost no traces from the explosion, and just by looking at it, you could tell that it had exploded itself along with its heart.

“Hey. Why did you make this choice…”

So the man sighed and shook his head.

‘If only I had come a little sooner, I could have prevented it… No, it was suicide!’

no.

This wasn’t it.

The presence of other dragons was clearly felt around here. But all that remains is the body of a person who committed suicide.

It was extremely suspicious.

‘Isn’t this kid over there the kid in this commotion? I heard that she is the granddaughter of Sarin….’

The granddaughter of Sarin, the oldest black dragon. That made the man feel even more sorry.

At the same time, a question began to grow in my mind.

‘I’ve been feeling suspicious about the red dragon for a few years now, and as expected, it’s related to the red dragon this time.’

Dragon Lord.

A position called the king of dragons.

The man worked his whole life on that spot for peace for all dragons.

While he was Lord, there was never a single war between dragons. Additionally, there were very few cases of countries founded by humans being destroyed by dragons. This is because the dragon’s rampage was strictly prohibited.

However, the Dragon Lord recently felt uncomfortable with the Red Dragon’s behavior.

It’s not just this incident. In several recent incidents, the Red Dragon has also taken up a place in all of them.

Whether it is the perpetrator or the victim.

But you cannot oppress a clan without evidence. So Rod went out alone to investigate, and as a result, he felt something was strange about this case as well.

That’s why I really wanted to meet the dragon in front of me. Because I wanted to hear proper testimony.

However, since he is already dead, he cannot provide evidence or testimony. It became impossible for him to get any closer to this incident.

Moreover, the bigger problem is that there is not much life left for oneself.

Absolute lack of time.

Because the Dragon Lord was older than Sarin, the highest dragon, the Black Dragon.

He predicted his lifespan and knew that the end was coming soon.

But there were too many uncomfortable things to just cover up like this. What if this threatens the peace of dragons and other races in the future?

That will never happen.

Therefore, Rod made a decision. The decision to find a successor.

As a result, it was difficult for the successor to be a dragon.

This job cannot be left to the dragon.

Whether it was red, black, or gold, it was not suitable for being a dragon.

Because we needed a being who could break away from the dragon’s fame and logic and maintain objective thinking.

The dragon’s arrogance will ruin this investigation.

It was rare to find a dragon that could see the world from a third party’s eyes like he did.

So it was quicker to find a third party.

I’m not looking for the Dragon Lord. All I have to do is find a replacement to investigate this case.

Of course, since my job was to investigate dragons, I was planning on giving it that much power.

Even humans can gain dragon-level power if they can accept their hearts.

Of course, accepting that heart comes with the condition that you have to risk your life. If there is no vessel of mana that can contain the power of the heart, the dragon heart will explode and the being that tried to receive it will also explode.

However, as time passed, the Dragon Lord became more and more embarrassed.

It was the most difficult task in the Dragon Lord’s long life to find someone who would not forget the right attitude under any circumstances and who would accept his power with strong determination and even risk his life.

“Elder!”

A young black dragon urgently approached the elder black dragon who was walking around the sacred site.

Medidana answered in surprise, as her face was completely contemplative.

“Why is your face like that? “You will soon join the ranks of ancient dragons, so keep your stamina.”

“This is not the time to protect your body! “Gggggg!”

“What? If you’re going to say something, say it straight, you bastard!”

Medidana shouted, imitating the other person’s tone of voice. But Black Dragon was still in contemplation.

“According to the news we just received, a large army of red dragons is coming towards the Holy Land! It’s massive! “They say it’s bigger than the last war, but how can they protect themselves…!”

“What’s wrong?”

Medidana’s face immediately distorted after receiving the report. Because it was a report that I couldn’t understand at all.

“Is it definitely a red dragon?”

“Of course!”

“They’re not using teleportation, they’re coming by flying?”

“yes. “It’s strange, but they say it’s definitely flying towards the Holy Land!”

Medidana was absurd.

Are they finally going crazy?

When Medidana had that thought, other ancient dragons who heard the news began to flock one by one.

The first to come was Dehagma, the actual second-in-command of Black Dragon.

As soon as Dihegma flew, he shouted at Medidana.

“This is a clear violation of the agreement! The one who proposed and signed the truce was Gold Dragon! “Aren’t they saying that they are going to deal not only with us but also with the Gold Dragon?”

That’s true.

So, I couldn’t understand Medidana even more. I couldn’t figure out what I was thinking.

But we had to defend ourselves. Because having the Holy Land taken over by them means defeat.

Medidana immediately summoned all available black dragons to the sanctuary and then dispatched dragons to the gold dragon sanctuary.

Black Dragon’s shrine, which had been quiet, began to run busily, and the ancient dragon Dihegma became rather excited.

“That’s better! Let’s take this opportunity to unite with Gold Dragon and crush them!”

“First, let’s make sure we understand the situation. “When the Gold Dragon comes, let’s discuss it together.”

But Medidana was cautious.

First of all, I thought I would find out what was going on.

Unless you’re a fool, starting a war again as soon as an armistice is signed is the same as asking for a two-on-one fight, and that’s a fact they probably know very well.

Then, naturally, my granddaughter came to mind.

‘Lurin must have gone to their sacred place… .’

Of course, there wasn’t much to worry about. The thing attached to Lulin is simply a being wearing a human mask.

The human who tried so hard to call it a sacred place for his own protection, but pulled Lurin out of the world, saying that she would not leave even if she died, from the lair containing her mother’s memories.

So, what you think is just the Red Dragon’s inner thoughts that you cannot understand.

Medidana began commanding the black dragons that were being summoned to the Holy Land one after another.

***

The Red Dragon invasion was real.

Opposing him were Black Dragon and a small unit of Gold Dragon who came to observe the situation.

The number was a whistle.

No, for some reason the number of red dragons seemed a little small. Obviously, the one lacking in numbers due to the aftermath of the last war was the Black Dragon, but the Black Dragon allied with the Gold Dragon’s small unit had a slight advantage.

So, when Gold Dragon officially participates, the numbers become lopsided.

At the gathering of large armies from both sides, the first to speak was the Red Dragon elder.

“It’s been a while. “Elder of the Black Dragon.”

“Are we talking about how long it has been since the ceasefire agreement was signed?”

“Well, isn’t this or that going to happen in life? What will happen this time is your destruction.”

“Did you say destruction now? “What the hell are you!”

Medidana asked back, but what came out of the elder’s mouth was an attack order.

Soon the red breath swept towards the Black Dragon’s sacred place.

“It was clearly the Red Dragon that struck first! “Gold dragons!”

Don’t miss this opportunity, Dihegma shouted as he looked towards the Gold Dragon. Their provocation did not end as a provocation but became a war, so they meant that they should join the war.

Because the situation was very clear, the Gold Dragon’s ancient dragon nodded and soon the war accelerated.

They kill each other here and there, and magic and breath become intertwined and begin to destroy the Holy Land.

Kwaang-!

Kwaang kwaaang here and there! The sound rang out continuously.

The beautiful shrine is cracking and collapsing.

Gold Dragon began to join the main unit due to a clear violation of the agreement. Eventually, the coalition began to overwhelm Red Dragon.

This is exactly what Dehegma wanted, and he excitedly beat the red dragon to death.

Kwaang-!

The one who stopped it was Red Dragon’s Reheim.

Dehagma and Reheim clash.

The collision of forces created a powerful shock wave. The more it happened, the more the shrine became a mess.

And the Red Dragons, who were increasingly disadvantaged in numbers, began to fall behind.

Medidana was still wondering this.

The Red Dragon elder must also know Dehagma’s thoughts. At the time, I was thinking that if I wasn’t a suicide commando, I wouldn’t understand the current situation at all.

Young red dragons appeared through teleportation next to the elder red dragon, who was watching the battle alone in the sky.

‘Wait a minute, I said that the number was a bit lacking. Were there any people left out?’

Medidana did not take his eyes off the red dragon elder while fending off the attacks of the red dragons spraying magic.

A situation where the Red Dragon is being pushed back by the alliance of the Gold Dragon and the Black Dragon.

In fact, this was the situation the Red Dragon elder wanted.

After the last war, Gold Dragon took over the Dragon Lord’s reign and proposed an agreement between Black Dragon and Red Dragon and mediated the fight. So, as soon as the agreement was broken, Gold Dragon had no choice but to punish the party that broke the promise. It’s that kind of agreement.

In fact, this was the real reason that started the last dragon war.

An agreement proposed by Gold Dragon.

After making an agreement, they break it and create a war in which Gold Dragon participates.

And annihilate them all! That’s the real goal.

In order to do that, the beads had to be gathered together, so it was postponed and postponed, but today finally dawned.

With the expectation that the world was now his, the Red Dragon elder took out all the dragon beads from his chest.

Red dragons who participated in this war.

The dragons who agreed with the elder’s will and went out for the Red Dragon’s world cut themselves and collected blood.

Like cutting a finger and mixing the blood to drink, they collected all the spilled blood and drew a huge magic circle around the Black Dragon’s sacred site.

A magic circle made of blood.

The magic circle was a technique that activated a powerful sealing barrier.

The reason it is made of blood is because the barrier has no effect on targets mixed with blood.

The problem was that a dragon bead was needed to activate a sealing barrier this large, but that problem was solved.

This huge sealing magic circle learned from old literature required powerful mana, and the medium was the caster’s blood and beads.

The blood of the caster was solved and the beads were also solved.

The three beads are now located in the center of the magic circle.

The reason why the Red Dragon elder wanted the beads even though he did not know how to completely absorb them with his own power. It was for this giant sealing magic circle I discovered when I was young.

The dragon beads reacted to the magic circle and began to emit strong light.

Guuuuuung-!

Soon, the huge sealing barrier that the Red Dragon elder had dreamed of covered the sacred place.

Seals all energy.

It is a sealing barrier that takes away not only mana but also the dragon’s life force. In other words, you can’t even use your breath.

Due to lack of energy, hand-to-hand combat becomes difficult.

On the other hand, the red dragons protected by the blood of the seal were capable of magic, breath, and hand-to-hand combat.

In this case, the fight becomes duller than a fight between an adult and a child.

Wow!

Fuuuuuuu-!

Quaaaaang-!

Due to the activation of the magic circle, the Black Dragon and Gold Dragon were unable to respond in any way and began to die.

Medidana opened her mouth with a bewildered expression.

I thought there was something, but I never expected something like this.

massacre.

Ruthless massacre.

The plan that the Red Dragon Elder had prepared for a long time to kill off most of the Black Dragons and Gold Dragons is going very smoothly.

Even Medidana was in crisis. Red dragons surround him.

The red dragons slowly approached the elder.

The moment when they approached little by little, following the elder’s order to not kill them all at once but to inflict as much pain as possible.

“Eat this!”

Whoa whoa!

One of the red dragons surrounding the elder was kicked and soared into the sky.

The person who threw the flying kick was a person who appeared out of nowhere.

To be exact, a black-haired dragon with human appearance.

In other words, it was Rurin.

Lurin lightly blew away a red dragon and then shook off his hands and said.

“As expected, flying kicks are the best against red ones. Hehe.”

Lurin, who was powered up with beads, was strong enough to take on one or two dragons even in her human form.
