193-187 What Ssangyong leaves behind

A week was about to pass in the blink of an eye as he endured the handling of the twin dragons while experiencing a situation where his entire body was frozen and his feet could not physically poke the ground.

Although he didn't feel that he was able to grow himself during that time, the difficulty level of handling steadily increased.

Still, by not giving up and making an effort, he no longer had to keep defending himself until he was iced over, and even if he was sent into the air, he was less likely to be subjected to the air barrier.

Incidentally, the only thing that has changed is the fact that I now use a lot of high heels and extra heels instead of activating the area barrier.

''Sage, you've managed to get moving.

You've grown up like a different person since you came here.

I didn't want to get iced or bounced in the air every time.

Although he said that, he was usually happy because he had never been praised by Ssanglong.

''Luciel, water can be turned into both ice and steam. Its possibilities are also limitless.''

'Luciel, the wind is intangible, but it is not nothing. It can be used as a wing, it can be used as a barrier.

What's going on here all of a sudden?

I'm surprised at the sudden call of my name, but after what I've just been through, something unexpected echoes in my head as I become more alert.

Pilon [Title: Water Dragon Blessing has been acquired]　

Pilon [Title: The blessing of the wind dragon has been acquired.　

''.......What do you mean by that?''

I'm baffled that the blessing was given to me even though I haven't accomplished anything yet.

I was expecting to not only be played with, but also receive a blessing if I struck a proper blow, so I'm disappointed.

''Luciel, Your Lord's unwillingness to give up and your courage to not retreat has been shown to me.

And someday, Luciel, if it were you, we would be able to handle our powers to the fullest.

The twin dragons stopped floating in the air and landed on the ground.

Then they looked at me in confusion and explained why they had given me their blessing.

''The time we have left is too short.

Then perhaps it would be wiser for him to see our power, the real dragon, in action.

'I don't know what you're talking about, but...'

Ssangyong speaks as if he is about to disappear, but there is no way he can understand it, prompting him to say the following words.

The two dragons looked at each other and then began to speak calmly.

《We too are under the curse of an evil god.

How they got into Nerdal, which is protected by this strong ward, remains unknown.

Fortunately, or perhaps I should say, when we were with him, the evil one appeared, and we were able to repel him, but in doing so, the magic circle that controls Nerdal in the air was destroyed.

We've been trying to fix it all along.

What the hell was the Wind Spirit doing?　I can't believe they're breaking in before I know it...what are they really doing?

I feel a sense of helpless anger welling up in me.

''Can't you think of something artificial?''

''Although that thing radiates an evil spirit, it's still a god. Even if it's artificial, if he's being manipulated, it can't be helped.

Fortunately, we were able to repair the magic circle, so Neldar didn't fall.

If that's the case, when was the curse placed on you?

Repairing the magic circle was supposed to trigger the curse.

It was so elaborate that even we were blinded by it.

I felt the tension in the twin dragons had dropped a bit, but I was angry that only the evil gods were interfering in this world.

Moreover, I wanted to ask him what he thought of his blunders as an administrator, such as being sealed off from the reincarnated dragons that were the foundation of the world.

But I really can't think that the twin dragons in front of me are under a curse.

The only reason why they are conscious, moving well and not communicating with each other is because they only have common sense, and most importantly, they didn't show any signs of distress.

Maybe if his symptoms were mild, he could be cured?　I felt that, I decided to propose to the two of them to break the curse.

''Water dragons and wind dragons, I'm sure I can break the curse of the evil gods now, so why don't you try it?''

Our curse is already impossible to break.

Since we are using methods that can erase the pain of our curses on each other, we are only sane and honestly unable to move our bodies properly.

"?　Is that why you never had to fight a battle except the first one?

However, Ssangryu didn't talk about it, but seemed to have decided to show it in action and floated in the air again.

''It's about time for the miko to return.

And so I will give you the final task.

Purify us.

As a test, Ssangyong asked for purification.

''Let's take everything we've learned here and bring us to our knees.

Free our dragons from the curse of the evil gods and inherit our power.

They say they will put that body to the test until the end.

As much as I want to be impressed, it's really hard to be required to fight as a test.

However, Lord Leinster had said that if we release the Basic Four Attribute Dragon, if the heroes don't lose to the Demon King, then this will allow us to protect the world.

Considering that this was the big game before retreating, it would mean that I wouldn't have to fight the demon race, the demon king, or the evil gods.

I came up with an answer after a struggle.

''I get it. But since you've become a sage and your magic power has changed, you might not be able to leave a single bone in your body if you purify it, okay?

Ha ha ha!

What a display of courage you have before you meet us in battle!

If you want to keep it, you can leave it with the Lord.

If it is not enough, let the full extent of our power be engraved on your body.

And you will have to pass the final test.

Let's go.

It would have been nice if Ssangyong's ordeal was to save them both.

But the twin dragons didn't give me the time to think about that any further.

Suddenly, I felt a flicker of magic power from behind and above my blind spot in the breath.

''Holy Dragon, protect this body, Thunder Dragon, leave everything behind.

Faster than I could react with my head, I unconsciously but reflexively called out the holy dragon and the thunder dragon.

As the holy dragon inhabited my body and the thunder dragon wrapped around my legs, my vision blurred in the next moment and the scenery flowed at high speed.

When I was sure that I had avoided the attack, I activated the Sanctuary Circle without chanting.

It's not a good idea to have a good idea of what you're doing.

The sanctuary circle created by the unchanted chanting began to spin around the body of the twin dragons, and for a moment I thought I saw the holy dragon.

It was a momentary contest.

If he looked at the place where he first stood, the ground had been gouged out of a hole that looked like it had been gouged out by something, and furthermore, there were remnants of what appeared to be numerous ice spears that had been swept out of the ground.

If he had been delayed in avoiding them for even a moment, he would have been exposed to a rain of attacks that would have normally killed him.

I shudder to think that I don't know what would have happened if I hadn't been paying attention to the magic power around me.

''Using the power of the Thunder Dragon to avoid an attack from our blind spot is brilliant.

This is indeed the light of the Holy Dragon's love.

Bathed in the blue-white light of the Sanctuary Circle, Ssanglong seemed to be smiling with satisfaction.

''Water Dragon, Wind Dragon.......If you guys were serious, I would have scattered this life in an instant.

Yes, it is.

But even so, the Lord has passed our final test with flying colors.

You may be proud of it.

Shuanglong's words were warmer than ever.

''We'll meet again one day.

And by then, hopefully, we will have used our powers to their fullest extent.

I pray that you will use our powers properly.

Then the light blue and green light was sucked into the illusionary sword and necklace.

''Sage Luciel, I have asked you to stop the invasion of the demon race and ask for this world until a brave man appears.

Wise Luciel, protect the world before the miasma takes over.

The story is getting too big for me to agree, but I'm sure Ssangryu doesn't think he can protect everything either.

''Well I'll only move as far as I can.

So I responded as usual, emphasizing the extent of what I could protect.

''Sage Luciel, when the world is in real danger, remove the seal of Rafiluna.

I'm sure that you, now wise enough to know, will be just as good to me as you were to him.

Rafiluna?　Who the hell is that?

You're going to work hard for your senility. Ha ha ha!

The twin dragons didn't answer my questions, but their bodies faded and disappeared.

''Why does the dragon tribe only say what they want to say, and then disappear without telling us the important things we want to check!

I couldn't stop screaming anymore.

The bow and pot had been left behind after the twin dragons disappeared, but it was only after a while that I noticed this.

Thus, having freed the Water Dragon and Wind Dragon from the seal, I didn't wait for Nadia's return to leave the seal room.
