Chapter 509: Beyond the Heavens Kingdom versus Akhan
The dragons flying in the skies could not understand what kind of place the Beyond the Heavens Kingdom was. They were dragons, widely recognized as the greatest existence on earth. Even if their powers had decreased by 30% by crossing through continents, their powers were still something that no human could ever dare to fight against.
But, the humans of Beyond the Heavens Kingdom worked together to fight against them. Furthermore...
Vwooooooooooong—
Kimaris, who was holding a gigantic ax and was clearly a demon in the eyes of these dragons, was fighting alongside the humans.
‘How can a demon fight for humans?’
‘What kind of kingdom is this god damned kingdom?!’
Why was one of the Devils living in this kingdom? Even dragons like them that lived for thousands of years had never heard of such a precedent. However, even with the appearance of one of the Devils, the number of dragons was still above ten.
Two of the dragons immediately rushed at Kimaris. Both of them were Dragon Knights, dragons that were stronger than ordinary dragons. Red Dragon Arfel immediately bombarded Kimaris with spells.
Grrrrrrrrrrr—
Crack, crack, crack—
More than a dozen powerful and shocking magical attacks cut through the air and rained down on Kimaris. At that moment, a tremendous amount of demonic energy fluttered into existence around Kimaris’ ax.
[Demonic Axe Art.]
[A Veteran Soldier’s Protection.]
[The moment your ax swings a powerful wave will be created that will extinguish all magical attacks in your surroundings.]
Slaaaaaaaaash—
A powerful wave stretched out of Kimaris’ ax the moment he slashed it. The wave destroyed all of the magical attacks that were aimed at him. However, Dragon Ford was waiting with his mouth wide open the moment Arfel sent his magic attacks.
Unfortunately, things did not go as they planned, instead, a very shocking scene unfolded in front of them.
Slaaaaaaaaaaash—
Kimaris, who looked like he was about to be devoured by the dragon’s huge maw, suddenly grabbed the dragon’s fangs, bringing the dragon to a halt in mid-air. Then, using the dragon’s teeth as a leverage, he stomped his feet while holding the fangs and smashed the dragon into the ground.
Baaaaaaaaaaaaang—
Red blood dripped down the Dragon Ford’s mouth as the ground underneath him sank in by five meters. Then, Kimaris moved his ax once again.
[Demonic Axe Art.]
[Soldier’s Slash.]
[You can swing your ax, with an additional 2,800% attack, dozens of times in one go and rip your enemies’ body to shreds.]
Slash, slash, slash, slash, slash, slash, slash—
Kimaris’ first swing dug deep into the dragon’s scales, which was then followed by dozens of strikes.
“Kihyaaaaaaaack! Graaaaaaa!” Dragon Ford shrieked loudly, unable to withstand the pain. Kimaris did not stop there. He approached the struggling Ford and punched him several times in a row.
Punch, punch, punch, punch, punch—
Thud—
Red blood continued to drip down Ford’s nose as he lost consciousness. Then, Kimaris, with his ax pointing at Ford’s neck, looked at the dragons around him and said, “Come.”
“...!”
“...!”
“...!”
“...!”
The dragons all turned furious at Kimaris’ provocations. Kimaris was a very clever demon, so he knew that dragons were considered the greatest existence on earth. That was why it was hard for them to endure and remain calm when they were forced to watch their colleague face such humiliation and death.
“Kihyeeeeeeee!”
“Kihyeeeeeeee!”
Several dragons flocked to Kimaris. Because of that, Gorfido and Elpis were given enough room to breathe.
The moment Luna saw Dragon Elder Velach, she spewed a breath of rage.
Shwaaaaaaaaaaa—
The huge breath was enough to slaughter a few humans, but it was nothing to Elder Velach. He just continued to look at Luna’s status window.

“...?!”
Velach doubted his eyes for a moment after seeing the words ‘The One that will become a Benevolent Dragon Lord’ written in Luna’s status window. He immediately checked the detailed description of the words.
(The One that will become a Benevolent Dragon Lord)
Description: Luna has seen, heard and experienced a lot of things in Beyond the Heavens Kingdom. She has learnt plenty of the good and upright things—an honest mind, sacrifice, love and friendship—and made Luna dream of becoming a benevolent and kind being, just like the people in Beyond the Heavens Kingdom. If things continued at this rate, Luna would shine brightly in the continent and would be known as the greatest and most benevolent dragon in history.
“...!”
Contrary to Dragon Velach’s expectations, Luna was walking the right path. Luna had already completely deviated from the path of destruction. Furthermore, she was going to become the greatest and most benevolent dragon in history, thanks to the care of the people of Beyond the Heavens Kingdom.
Even Velach had to admit that no dragon could shape and teach Luna these wonderful values.
‘Rather than get angry, aren’t we supposed to be thanking the Beyond the Heavens Kingdom?’
Velach and the other dragons were also worried about how they could instill and teach good values to the hatchling that would be born from the Dragon Lord’s egg. Since the dragon that would be born would be the greatest existence among them, it would definitely become more arrogant and nonchalant among all of the dragons in existence. Even the boredom that the dragon would experience would be greater than anybody else. And this boredom would only be resolved by killing.
Velach felt his head throb. Then, as if to cement things firmly, Minhyuk suddenly exclaimed, ‘Ah!’ before saying, “Akhan, that bastard! He clearly orchestrated everything. Did he say that we stole the egg?”
“That’s right. He said that a man using the mercenary swordsmanship has stolen the egg.”
“But that doesn’t make sense? How can a human steal something from a dragon’s lair?”
Of course, it was possible for one person, and one person alone.
“Also, a man that uses mercenary swordsmanship? Our Beyond the Heavens Kingdom does not have such a great man at all.”
Well, he was there not too long ago, but he was not here right now.
Then, Minhyuk continued to say, “It’s obvious that it was Akhan that stole the egg and placed it in front of our Beyond the Heavens Kingdom. Then, he immediately went to you to start this nonsensical war.”
Dragon Elder Velach was now confused. Akhan had declared that Beyond the Heavens Kingdom would use the Dragon Lord as their weapon. In other words, they would raise the egg in the path of evil.
But the situation in front of Velach was completely different. Also, what Minhyuk said was half true. After all, he was a man that would never let an opportunity slip by.
“It’s about time that we stop this nonsensical war.”
Velach could not deny Minhyuk’s words. It was just as he said. With Luna growing in the right path, everything was their fault. Not only attacking the Beyond the Heavens Kingdom, but also breaking through and entering Asgan Continent and breaking the balance that they had maintained for thousands of years.
But Minhyuk did not stop there. He even took things a step further, “Ah. Since everything was all because of your misunderstanding, I’m sure you will give us enough compensation, right? Don’t tell me that the greatest and noblest existence on earth would just keep their mouths shut about this, after attacking us with no rhyme or reason at all, right?”
“...”
Minhyuk even thought about peeling off a layer of skin from the dragons by shaving off a portion of the treasures that they hid in their lairs. He was the epitome of a scammer that could sell fine dust for five million gold by saying that it was good for the skin.
