Episode 195
▶ Soul Ministry Lv 10 (maximum) cannot be used.
The Elder Dragon’s corpse shook, but there was no significant change.
“You don’t want to disappear like this. “Are you trying to survive even if it means melting your brain?”
▶ Soul Ministry Lv 10 (maximum) cannot be used.
Although he felt terrible pain every time the magic was thrown, Namgung continued to use the magic towards the Elder Dragon.
[Don’t do anything pointless. Since the dragon core is broken, it is just an empty shell.]
That was then.
I heard a voice.
[My name is Wilmus. You broke my dragon core very well. Are you trying to teach me about such a topic?]
A hazy smoke rose in front of the dragon’s corpse.
“Because if it’s vaguely alive, you can’t make it into a soul soldier. I must die for sure. is not it?”
Namgung could tell that the hazy smoke was the passion of the Elder Dragon.
“And I don’t think you have anything to blame me for. “It was the flying dragon clan that tried to exploit you, and the Naga clan that drove you to death.”
Namgung said.
“Rather, perfect death is like rest. is not it?”
[You speak well.]
“The leader of the flying dragon tribe is dead. “His son remains, but… well, their future won’t be much different from mine.”
[There are still two more elder dragons left in the drake world. And countless Drakes and evil dragons. They are not part of the flying dragon family, but they will not remain silent if you attack the flying dragon family.]
“Why me? “I came to end the Octagon War, not to destroy the world where the Dali clan lives.”
[What if the drake tribe does not participate in the war and just stays in the drake world? Eventually you will have to go find them.]
“I thought my brain had melted, but it’s more intact than I thought.”
Namgung chuckled at Wilmus’ words.
[Thanks to losing my body, my head has become clearer. I was so obsessed with life… but now that I’m dead, it’s not that bad.]
“So what’s the answer?”
[refuse. Until now, I have been living with the shackles of life… Even after I die, I will be tied to life again? I will quietly disappear like this.]
“That is difficult. “Without you, we might really have to destroy the flying dragon world.”
[…What?]
Wilmus, who was about to turn around, frowned slightly at Namgung’s words.
“There are two ways to use necromancy. Contracting souls to create soul soldiers and raising dead bodies to use them as undead.”
He raised his finger.
“For the former, even though your body is destroyed, you can at least maintain your will. However, the latter uses the empty shell left after annihilating your soul.”
[Now is that… a threat? That’s not even funny. You probably don’t know that soul ministry is only possible for souls that are friendly to the caster.]
“That’s why I’m saying it. “It will only happen if you become friendly to me from now on.”
[Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk…?”
Wilmuth shook his shoulders and laughed at Namgung’s words.
[This is completely crazy! What is that sound that suddenly comes to me? Suddenly becoming friendly towards you?]
“What’s funny? The soul soldiers who follow me are people who have no direct contact with me. I don’t even know their faces. “At least compared to that, aren’t you much better?”
[How can that be? Can you be friendly to someone you don’t even know?]
Wilmus asked Namgung with an expression of disbelief.
“Because the goal is the same. Look. The Primordial Spirit also gave me strength. “I see no reason for you, a mere dragon, to reject me, whom even the creator of the world has acknowledged.”
[What do I gain by following you? I died anyway.]
“That’s such a stupid question. “Why are you so obsessed with life?”
[That is…]
“Are you afraid of death?”
[Absolutely not.]
“Then there is only one answer. “Isn’t it because you’re curious about the future you haven’t seen?”
Namgung looked at Wilmus.
“The Drake clan is also a representative clan, so you must have seen many carnivals. But as you know, it would have been a consistent result.”
[….]
“There is no way I would have lived until now to see such a future. Then the answer would be the opposite. “I want to see a future that is different from the past.”
Namgung didn’t answer, but he felt Wilmuth’s eyes trembling.
“is not it?”
[Can you show me that?]
“Of course.”
Wilmuth looked at Natriel next to Namgung.
[Is it truly foolish to doubt you, who even follows the Primordial Spirit? What do you want from me?]
“It’s simple. Opening the treasury of the flying dragon world. To do so, a declaration of defeat from the surviving leader’s son would be necessary. “Because they fled without surrendering yet.”
[It’s not that difficult. Instead, I also have a condition.]
“What is it?”
[If the Drake tribe surrenders to you, spare the leader’s son.]
▶ You can use Soul Ministry Lv 10 (maximum).
At that moment, the notification changed.
Namgung nodded slowly.

“You cockroach!! “You’re so persistent!!”
Soron swung his ax nervously.
However, his ax was gradually slowing down as Gyu Ryu narrowly avoided the attack and spread his points.
[Kukkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk… The Haein family that came out of the water is nothing special. Or am I strong?]
[Why don’t you say that after killing the leader? Your face is too messed up to show off.]
[Chuckling.]
Gyu-ryu laughed at Hyun-ryu’s words.
But it was understandable that he was confident. Regardless of whether he was out of the water or not, Thoron was the head of a clan.
Being able to fight without being pushed back to this extent in a confrontation with the leader meant that Gyu-ryu now had leader-level skills.
‘I don’t want to admit it, but… I’m strong.’
Hyunryu smiled bitterly as he watched Gyuryu’s battle.
“Damn it…! Damn it!!!”
Soron’s attacks were clearly gradually dulling.
The speed of the ax slowed down significantly, and the abilities he used no longer worked on Gyu-ryu.
‘We must return to the water.’
[I can hear the eye rolling all the way from here.]
The moment Gyu-ryu glanced at the lake, he didn’t miss it and said teasingly.
[Do whatever you want.]
“…keaaaa!!!”
As soon as Gyu-ryu’s words fell, Soron threw down his ax and started running towards the lakeside.
[Tsk, tsk, I can’t believe he aimed for the octagonal war with such skills.]
Soron’s
nervous expression came to life the moment his feet touched the lake.
“Kill me…”
It
was then.
The black scythe lightly decapitated his neck.
[The waiting is over.]
Everyone was left speechless by the sound of Akasha’s voice as Soron’s head fell to the floor with such ease that it seemed futile.
‘Clearly Soron’s feet touched the water.’
Hyunryu looked at Akasha, who had become a Shinigami.
The appearance of the elf of the past disappeared, and he was just a person with a black robe and a scythe, infinitely close to death.
‘On the water, the Haein clan is strong. To kill such a Thoron with a single blow… they are not easy.’
Extraterrestrial beings who are neither a phase nor a representative clan.
However, as we have seen now, their power was not something that could be easily overcome.
[Don’t worry. We have just added the name of the Shinigami. I’m not strong enough to kill the clan leader so easily.]
Did he read Hyunryu’s eyes?
Akasha, who was floating on the surface of the water, slowly came down to the ground and said.
[Because the power of the lake has returned to us. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to make such propaganda against Soron.]
[The power of the lake has returned?]
[Watch carefully.]
As soon as Akasha finished speaking, the two belatedly realized the weak power surrounding their bodies.
[Wait a minute, the lake’s power applies to us…]
[It probably means that the Naga Queen is dead.]
[…!!!]
At Akasha’s words, Gyu and Hyun-ryu looked at each other.
[The Octagon War….]
[It’s over?]
Ssaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa—!!!
At that moment, a huge splash began to rise from the lake.
[Crrrrr….] Searᴄh the Novёlƒire.n(e)t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
Everyone was alert to the appearance of a huge serpent with its head exposed above the water, but Gyu-ryu shouted the moment he saw it.
[Yong!]
On top of the blue serpent’s head was Namgung.
“Don’t be too disappointed that I didn’t call you. Because fighting in the lake was dangerous.”
[Cruk, croak.]
After lightly tapping Yong-ah’s forehead as she nodded in understanding, Namgung lowered himself to the floor.
“It’s not all over yet. “I have to resolve the drake tribe and talk to the fairy tribe.”
[It’s not an easy task because we’re from the fairy race.]
“How could anything in this world be easy? “The fairies are also the fairies, but there are many more complicated things.”
Namgung said, thinking of Carlos.
“Well… I still have some things left to take care of. Still, shouldn’t there be enough time to be happy about the victory in the lake battle?”
Crying –
Namgung took out a small bundle of keys from his arms and waved them to the two.
[The key to the Naga clan’s safe!!]
Gyu-ryu recognized it immediately and shouted.
* * *
▶ The keys to all seven storehouses of the Naga Queen have been matched.
▶ The holder of the key bundle can take 3 treasures regardless of the type of warehouse.
▶ Afterwards, unless you lose the key package, you can take the items you want once every six months.
[Wow… That’s huge.]
The sight of seven warehouses covered in golden scales standing side by side was truly spectacular.
[Rakanheim’s warehouse was a joke.]
The giants’ warehouse in Rakanheim, which had a mountain of treasures, was enormous, but even that great warehouse could not compare to the Naga Queen’s warehouse.
“It probably shows how great the queen’s greed is.”
Although he spoke calmly, Namgung could not help but hold his tongue as he looked at the treasures in the warehouse.
Of the seven warehouses, the last one they were in now surprisingly had no items below epic grade.
‘This is my first time doing something like this.’
There were weapons with purple names piled up everywhere, so it felt unrealistic.
[What you are looking for this time is the treasure of the Naga clan, right? If I recall, the treasure of the Naga clan would be the Hall of the Lake. It significantly increases the magic power of the water type.]
Gyu-ryu said to Namgung, twitching his eyebrows as if he were confident.
“no. “That’s not what I want.”
[Really?]
“It’s a weapon that even the Naga Queen couldn’t handle, so I hid it.”
[Is there such a thing? Even if it’s because the giants are unskilled in using tools, I don’t think there’s any tool that the Naga Queen, who is a magic family, can’t handle…]
That was then.
Gyu-ryu, who was talking casually, stopped.
“The reason the Titans couldn’t handle the primordial meteorite wasn’t simply because they were lacking.”
[That one…]
Gyu-ryu started running through the treasures in the warehouse.
“The fact that you can’t handle it shows how great it is.”
A treasure that even the Naga Queen couldn’t handle, so she kept it hidden.
[You are numbered 1…?!]
Of course, it was bound to be amazing.
