“Contract…….”
[Yes. This is the contract you shared with your ancestor, the first Witch of Feathers.]
Low Jeonsung. Sienna narrowed her eyebrows and looked at the man in front of her.
Bourbon’s appearance was not much different from usual.
Her brown hair was gathered back in a ponytail. The bartender’s characteristic white shirt and pants were neatly ironed as always.
Just like the greenish-brown eyes that she would not have revealed if she were just looking at the store, the mouth that she would not have opened in front of customers are also familiar features to her.
“…It’s different.”
However, Sienna knew.
Despite the fact that her senses, including energy, did not function as usual due to the internal injuries sustained from the Dragon God’s strike.
I realized that this man who appeared in front of me for the first time in a few months was not the bartender I usually saw.
It is the true body of Kyle Berkus Arvan, one of the thirteen great dragons who far surpasses the rank of an alter ego.
“…It’s true that it’s an alter ego.”
[Then it must be a lie. No matter how indifferent the transcendental people of the Diamond Palace are to the bronze area, it is not enough to allow the main body of the great dragon to walk freely on the main street. Even if I don’t agree with the Dragon God.] It
‘s been a while since I moved my body, so I’m feeling tired. Sienna tilted her head at the added words.
Come to think of it, I think it was said that the main body was sealing away some ancient evil or something.
I had heard from Dallen that somewhere in the Blade’s Edge Mountains on the western side of the continent, there had been a place that had been sleeping with evil for thousands of years.
[The end is approaching. Now that the doomsday heralds have begun to lick the outskirts of the continent, will it make a big difference if one of the monsters I have sealed is added?]
“…This is what it means to speak like a spellcaster. “I understand Dallen now.”
[This means that it is not that difficult of an evil compared to the five evil spirits.]
“Why can I say this so easily?”
[…….]
The bartender’s mouth closes, perhaps in embarrassment. Sienna smiled and took a step forward.
And I stumbled before I could take a few steps. It was only later that I realized how bad my body was.
“…Ugh.”
[Don’t overdo it.]
A hand holding your arm and supporting you. Bourbon’s shoulders were strong and stable.
I wonder if the shoulders of my father, whose face I had never seen, looked like this. It was to the point where I thought that way without even thinking about it.
But now was not the time to lean on that shoulder.
“…I have to go.”
Sienna pushed the hand away and moved forward.
Beetle.
I move my shaking legs again. Climbing up the pile of rubble piled up in a disorderly manner, using both hands and feet.
The fact that the Dragon God’s sword split the city in half does not simply mean that it was cut into pieces neatly, like cutting a cloth with scissors.
A catastrophe where the entire ground is completely shattered and turned over, as if soft tofu had been hit with a thick knife.
The ground was exposed and the castle walls crumbled like biscuits. The remains of the underground ruins surfaced and mixed with the broken buildings above ground.
The Dragon God’s blow did not even block the enemy. Horns and scaly tails were among the crushed dragon accessories.
“…Dallen.”
Would there be anyone who could take a blow that caused destruction across the main complex and dozens of kilometers around it without hesitation from the front and be unharmed?
It would be possible if the God of War descended on this place. But Dallon was not God.
Although his actions seemed similar to those of a hero from a great ancient war, the Dallen she saw was merely a human being with flesh and blood.
[Sienna. Calm down.]
“Dallen is not God. So you can die.”
[What can you do when your mood is so distorted? The man is alive. My senses feel fine.]
Stop.
My scarred hands and feet stiffened. The dragon met Sienna’s gaze and continued speaking casually.
[This is a man who survived the surgery I personally performed to replace the heart with a dragon. There’s no way I could fall to this level.]
“…Really?”
[okay. Don’t worry, the rest of the group is all safe. Thanks to that man reducing his power, I was able to protect him with just a few simple words.]
“……Haa.”
A body that collapses. Her shoulders, covered with long, flowing black hair, are shaking.
Bourbon stood by Sienna’s side as if guarding her. Vertically slit green-brown eyes quietly gazed across the ruins.
The majestic feeling of the ancient dragon was able to capture the entire area around the ruined city.
What focused his attention was the intense opposition between the two camps outside the city, where all life had dried up.
On one side is the Dragon God and the surviving dragon legions under him. On the other side, a warrior stands alone.
The warrior with the blood of Red Spear and the heart of Blue Lin and the skeleton of an earth dragon was actually half-dragon.
‘Is this the first conflict in thousands of years since the disappearance of the Red Army?’
In other words, this was no different from a civil war between dragons.
A war to choose which side to stand once again as the dragon army, which abandoned neutrality thousands of years ago and chose a side, faces its end.
Which side will win?
The key is how to overcome the dragon god’s absolute control over the dragons.
It was the result of a contract made by the thirteen great dragons thousands of years ago when the Dragon God was born.
As red blood flows through Dallen’s veins, he has no choice but to be indirectly bound by those restrictions.
‘…I don’t know.’
The first roar of the Dragon God Kyle Berkus Arven shook his head.
It was a fight where it was difficult to predict victory or defeat. To begin with, he didn’t have much interest in right or wrong.
He just hopes that the young witch, who looks exactly like his former lover, will live happily ever after.
He personally saved her life through a contract that was over a thousand years old, so it should not have been lost in vain.
“…bourbon.”
Coo coo coo coo…!
And in the midst of the pure white snowy mountain peak rising through the ground like an eggshell, the young witch opened her mouth.
“The contract is over…but can I ask you a favor?”
[I don’t listen to requests. I just respond to deals and contracts.]
“Then I’ll propose a deal. “It’s a good deal for both sides.”
The dragon laughed. Who do you resemble so boldly?
[Let’s hear it. [You young witch.]
***
Cheeeee….
Hazy steam rising from the whole body.
My whole body was heated by the rushing dragon blood that was repairing my body.
“It fucking hurts.”
Dallen spat out blood. My nerves healed and my whole body throbbed.
The feeling of your heart beating through your limbs and head.
It has been rare to feel this type of sensation since gaining a superhuman body. Needless to say, it was beyond the limits of the species.
[Is he really the one who inherited the legacy of Jeokchang? Even among the great dragons, there are not many who can take my sword.]
“…….”
[You’re not hearing it right. I am impressed by the attitude of recovering by prioritizing motor skills over senses. Any dragon, as long as his body moves properly, should be able to somehow deal with the enemy’s attacks even with his inferior sixth sense.]
The boy said with a happy smile. Dallen ignored it and focused on recovery.
Only when my five senses were fully restored did I see the boy. A figure wearing colorful armor wrapped around pale skin.
The dry wind blowing over the ruins blew my gray hair. The shadows behind the boy were hundreds of dragons.
More than half of the dragon army was killed by a single blow with a white sword, and only about three to four hundred survived.
Most of the surviving dragons were injured, such as having their tails cut off or their wings torn off. To the point where there is almost no normal appearance.
“You guys are so disgusting too. “Are you saying you’re a god and still follow me after getting to that point?”
[Is that what it is?]
“I don’t understand why a man called God follows even though he killed more than half of his followers for no reason.”
[The servant simply obeys unconditionally. Wouldn’t it be a true honor to die by the master’s sword?]
Dallon shook his head. No matter how barbaric Medieval Land is, I would never have guessed that even a so-called god would act like that.
In other words, it would have been like hearing the sound of an evil spirit. If you think about it, there were a lot of people on Earth shouting God’s name, stabbing with knives, and throwing bombs.
As he adjusted his sword while thinking about various things, the Dragon God smiled softly. The guy said.
[You don’t seem to understand. However, you too will have to obey that order.]
“What nonsense?”
[You are the heir of Red Spear’s blood and have been transplanted with the heart of the left arm armor and the bones of the right gauntlet. By the contract of the Great Dragon War, your heart, blood, and bones are mine.]
Kugugugu…!!
The moment the words “Great Dragon Battle Contract” rang out, a strange power came down from the red-stained sky.
The air itself rushes forward with murderous intent. A movement that seems to be squeezing the heart, bone vessels, and blood flowing within them.
The twisting flow of magic floated around the boy’s body.
Holding a white sword, his hands were spread wide and his gray eyes were looking down at Dallen.
[I am the only god under the sky of Daeryongjeon. He is the child of the Ten Thousand Dragons and inherits their blood and will. Your idea to fight against the dragon with the dragon’s power is commendable, but that power is also mine…huh?]
The boy’s eyes wavered. An expression clearly showing embarrassment.
[Why is your power…how did it escape the contract? It is clearly red blood that flows within that body.]
“But?”
[Now that the Great Dragon Hall has descended, there is no one who can go against my command. Surely you should have been torn to pieces! Why…!]
Dallon turned his sword once without saying a word. The holy sword cried softly.
What Yongshin said was not wrong.
Unlike the complete opening of the realm, the world where a divine being descends is not a shadow but a perfect reality.
The air of the great dragon battle that it had descended upon was trying to bite Dallen at this very moment.
However, the low resonant sound that rang out from the holy sword blocked all that murderous intent.
[That sword…]
“It was said that it was made from the bones of an ancient dragon living underground in order to control the power of the sky.”
Dallon held out his sword.
“A sword that can pierce the heart of a god. “It is a masterpiece created by the best blacksmith I know.”
***
With the blade of the holy sword stretched out facing downwards, I slowly release my strength from my hand.
The sound emanating from the spontaneously rising holy sword was the resonance of three different powers.
Clud-clack—-
The earth dragon’s power bound the earth.
Wow!!
The frosty wind that protected the northern continent covers the sky.
Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuh……
It was the divinity that pushed back the power of the Dragon God, using the two powers that covered heaven and earth as boundaries.
The vitality that was poured into my body when I fought Sun in the North.
An unknown power granted by a man who is considered the warrior god of the North and the war god of the Holy Knights.
Buzz buzz buzz—!!
The holy sword stuck in the ground began to cry regularly, as if digging into dry bread.
In the resonance that encompassed the end of the horizon, the deadly pressure of the Great Dragon Battle was blown away.
The Dragon God’s power, which can grant coercive power to all dragons, has been temporarily nullified.
The Dragon God, realizing that one of his powers had been lost, screamed like a scream.
[impossible. How can the magical powers of humans and dragons become one? In the first place, how on earth could the God of War’s disgusting power affect such an object…!]
Dallon did not answer. In fact, he didn’t know much either.
This holy sword is a masterpiece, restored and strengthened by the best blacksmith he knows using the by-products of the Earth Dragon.
Meanwhile, all he knew was the status window details of the blacksmith character he had raised on the other side of the monitor.
Information such as abilities, skills, and items stored in the inventory and warehouse.
‘Khahaha! The pale young guy talks like an old man who is dying. Have you even tried to live your life twice?’
A loud laugh passes through my head and disappears.
Despite his rough gestures and loud voice, the blacksmith left without even saying a final goodbye.
How deep was the despair that the dragon slayer who had killed hundreds of dragons must have felt as he knelt before the dragon god?
Also, how high was the determination that was developed by creating tens of thousands of pieces of weapons in the eternity of time in the well?
“…….”
For Dallen, who did not even live half a century in his two lives combined, that was probably a feeling that he could not realize even after a lifetime.
However, the blacksmith trusted him and left a legacy.
And what he must do as the heir to the legacy is to finish the fight he could not finish.
「The area is completely open」
「The light of beginning falls on the snowy mountain」
Kugugugugu…!!
The earth shakes and the earth splits apart.
Hundreds of pure white mountain peaks rose up from the ruins of the main altar.
Wow!!
The cold wind of the mountains collided with the heat of the Great Dragon Hall.
With the hem of his clothes fluttering mercilessly, Dallon pulled out a Leberon mithril spear.
Dark red flames naturally wrapped around the window.
Dallen’s eyes, facing the dragon god’s gray eyes, were suddenly slit vertically and burning red.
