Episode 75
: X set Yongyong free while he was being trained by Sioras. Therefore, it was the first time to see Yongyong’s true worth as he grew up.
Surprised, X first checked Yongyong’s condition.
Name: Yongyong
Race: Dragon
Satiety: 65%
Level: 131
Vitality: 99000 / 99000
Mana: 64000 / 64000
Strength: 1510 / Dexterity: 1020
Magic: 850 / Overpower: 800
“…You caught up.”
Overwhelming growth!
X, whose vitality and mana were noticeably overtaken, was drooling. Even when Yongyong sleeps, he doesn’t stop training, hunting, and binge eating! Differences in natural lineage could not be helped.
‘Still, I’m glad I heard what you said.’
Please grow up without going through puberty.
X watched Yongyong flying and prayed earnestly. Scum! Yongyong rushed towards the giant crow. The crow stumbled, perhaps having been touched by Yongyong’s claws, and flung out black feathers.
“Hmm, he’s a picky guy.”
But X’s expression wasn’t so good. Considering Yongyong’s stats, he must have suffered quite a bit of damage.
Twenty twenty. However, the giant crow began to self-recover under the power of darkness, as if there was a reason for its appearance at night.
“Kyuu?”
Yongyong stared at the sight, as if it was fascinating.
Quick resolution.
If it goes on for a long time, Yongyong will eventually win, but there is no need to relax now. widely! X placed his hands on the floor and shouted for the first time in a while.
“Dancing stems!”
A dancing trunk whose skill level has increased by 20% due to the effect of the Old Tree Spirit Ring!
Although it has not been used so far and its proficiency level has not been raised, its power was sufficient.
Kuddeuk! A huge stem rose into the sky and quickly stretched towards the giant crow. Food! The crow tried to run away, but X’s stalk was fast and accurate.
“Gotcha.”
X held the dancing stalk in one hand and held the primal flint in the other.
Crack! Then he kicked the ground and threw a raw flint at the struggling crow.
Sigh! A hit with a cheerful sound.
[Fatal blow!]
X’s javelin, which appropriately utilized strength and energy, displayed tremendous power. Twenty twenty. Of course, the crow immediately tried to play, but he wasn’t one to just watch.
“Kyuuuuu!”
A continuous attack of claws and teeth. All the crow could do was struggle. Eventually, the power drawn from the darkness seemed to have reached its limit, and the crows began to disperse into the air.
Tiroling! A notification rang.
[You have defeated the ‘Watcher of the Ancient Kingdom’ for the first time in the Fate world!]
[Your reputation increases by 500 points!]
[Your level has increased!]
“Even a blank card is better if you face it.”
“Kyuuuu….”
“It’s not because I don’t trust you, Yongyong.”
A dragon-like, warlike personality.
Yongyong seemed to be secretly disappointed that X got involved in the battle. X took the original flint that Yongyong had brought with him and petted Yongyong.
‘Let’s see, he was probably the gatekeeper.’
Now that the giant crow has been defeated, a path to a space with more vengeful spirits has been opened. X’s eyebrows twitched as he looked around.
“That’s it.”
A collapsed building that appears to be a temple.
The stigma of destruction was visible on the floor. The magic circle-like shape also had the brand of destruction engraved on it, and it seemed to be a portal leading underground. X pondered in front of the portal.
“A view of Mt. Geumgang after a meal. “It’s all about trying to make a living…”
I thought about completing the Ancient Kingdom quest as a top priority, but the new ingredients scattered around Zurpia caught my eye. X, who was drooling, made a decision.
“Yongyong, are you hungry?”
“Kyuu?”
“Are you hungry? So, let’s eat something and then go in.”
“Kyuu… Kyuhu!!”
Passing responsibility to Yongyong.
Yongyong was still full, but he wasn’t the type to refuse food again.
Slap! X ran faster than ever and started collecting ingredients for Zurpia.
[Heavenly taste has discovered the hidden taste of the ‘Sweet Stone’!]
[The sweet and sour taste of the Sweet Stone is absorbed into your body!]
[Maximum stamina increases by 50 points!]
[Strength increases by 2 points!]
‘ This looks like a mango. If you make it a delicious and heavenly dish, it will probably help you regain your stamina, right? ‘I should pack a few!’
X discerned ingredients with eyes that were much sharper than before. As I naturally gained experience, I now had a rough idea of what effect heavenly cooking would have.
“Kyuuuu!”
“Oh my Yongyong did another thing, good job!”
Yongyong helped X by catching the monster he wanted to eat. Thanks to this, I was able to gather all the ingredients that can only be found at Jurpia in a short period of time.
“Now then, shall we get started? If possible, you can earn gold…”
Should X turn on the broadcast? I also thought about it. But then he shook his head. Even if I were to reveal my power in earnest, I had no intention of completely revealing my base, and I had to de-summon Yongyong again when it was broadcast.
‘Let’s save a little bit of coral water for 10,000 years.’
X enjoyed a meal with Yongyong for the first time in a while. Sosolsol! Sprinkle various spices on the meat, grill it, make sauce with Jurpia’s special fruits, eat it, pour it over, dip it, and eat it! Anyway, I decided to use various methods to get the stats.
“It was a great meal.”
“Kyuuuu.”
Thanks to this, X and Yongyong’s stomachs swelled to the point of bursting.
floating. X patted his stomach with satisfaction and checked his increased stats.
‘Let’s see, with this one meal, my stats have increased by a total of 200 points.’
I just binge-watched, but my stats increased by 200 points! It’s an incredible growth, but I’m slowly getting used to it. Moreover, X must fight against another enemy who is much more formidable than himself.
“From now on, I will have to make binge eating a part of my life.”
From greed to gluttony!
In order to become stronger, X easily ignored the seven deadly sins. After finishing his meal, X put out the bonfire and cleaned up the surroundings. I had enough to fill my stomach, but I had to enter the floating portal before dawn.
“Since we ate, let’s work hard to pay for the meal.”
“Kyuuu!”
Sigh!
When I activated the portal, black energy enveloped my body. Soon, X and Yongyong disappeared from the Jurpia ruins.
*
“Kyuuuu?”
“Is it Yongyong?”
“Kyuuu!”
It’s dark ahead. When I looked to the side, I saw Yongyong’s golden pupils. X took out a tree branch from his inventory and lit it. Good luck! Then the appearance of the ancient kingdom of Zurpia came into view.
“…It’s huge, isn’t it?”
Stars are pouring down.
I didn’t think it was an ancient kingdom located in a remote jungle like Zurpia. After all, how can you see the starry night sky from a hidden underground place?
X looked up at the ceiling in admiration. Was there a special magic or was it made of special stones? The ceiling was so transparent that the night sky could be seen right through it.
‘This ancient kingdom seems to have been highly developed.’
X walked slowly, impressed by the technology.
Slam!
As soon as X took a step, the sound of mechanical devices turning could be heard everywhere. X, confused as to whether it was a trap, took a defensive stance. But I couldn’t help but be surprised once again.
“Now automatic door?”
A stone gate that opens by itself!
It may have been thousands or even tens of thousands of years since it was put into operation. However, X’s movements were accurately detected and the stone door was opened. X shook his head.
“Whew, I need to come to my senses.”
It is a technological power that crushes the countries currently existing in the Fate World. Those vengeful spirits from an ancient kingdom would be no easy task. X carefully made his way to the stone gate.
Crash.
With the sound of the machine engaging again, the lights began to come on in the passage. It’s not even a torch, but a light bulb!
“…I can’t guess.”
It was another being that destroyed dozens of these ancient kingdoms overnight. It was an enemy that had to be defeated in the end, but its power could not be guessed.
X was inwardly astonished and looked around. The passage was complex, like a maze, but whenever it got blocked, mechanical devices clicked together to open the way.
‘Well, according to common sense, this would lead to a trap.’
Since the vengeful spirits had to be defeated anyway, X decided to quietly fall into the trap.
How long did it take? The starlight shining down from the ceiling disappeared and dawn slowly began to rise.
“Has it arrived?”
“Kyuu?”
“Wow, this is really awesome.”
When you raise your head, you see a huge soldier!
It was like a big robot. A human-shaped machine was looking down at X with its arms crossed. Shiny cogs could be seen between the joints of the machine.
“Even the little gears are made of extremely expensive minerals, right?”
The cheapest looking thing was gold, and occasionally precious rock metal was seen.
This huge machine could literally be said to be a lump of money.
How can a cat pass by a fishmonger?
X’s eyes sparkled.
‘…What if I disassemble that thing?’
A chance to make a fortune!
Smiling. The moment when X approached the machine with a smile on his face.
Goooooh. I began to feel a familiar energy coming from the machine.
The energy scattered throughout the underground was gathering towards the machine.
“No way?”
Yes. The dream of making a fortune was disappearing.
Dozens of vengeful spirits were merged into the machine. Slam! Crunch! One vengeful spirit moves its arms and another vengeful spirit moves its legs. In this way, the gigantic machine began to come to life. Soon, the stigma of destruction emerged from the center of the machine.
“…If I defeat that one too, it will turn to dust, right?”
Ah, the thousand gold that has flown away!
X sighed and immediately prepared for battle. It is a giant soldier that moves with dozens of vengeful spirits gathered together.
It will have a different power than before.
“…!!”
Even if it looks huge, it will attack you physically.
X’s prediction was spectacularly wrong. Crunch! Swaaaaaaaa! The giant soldier’s mouth moved, and poisonous smoke spewed out from there. The deadly poison alone was dangerous, but the power of the brand of destruction seemed to be added to it.
X immediately shouted loudly.
“Bear stance!!”
And then he hurriedly looked at Yongyong. X becomes immune to status ailments by using Bear Stance, but Yongyong is not. No matter how much a dragon he is, he cannot escape the stigma of destruction.
‘After all, there is no choice but to dismantle the summons.’
“Kyuu kyuu.”
When X raised his hand, Yongyong seemed to have realized X’s intention. But Yongyong’s expression was relaxed. No, he was beyond relaxed and even arrogant.
‘No matter what, you can’t do anything, you bastard!’
Dragon, the king of all rivers!
Yongyong was not discouraged even in the face of the stigma of destruction, but this was a separate issue. The moment X was about to cancel Yongyong’s summoning, a huge flame began to wriggle from Yongyongi’s mouth. X’s eyes widened.
“B breath? “Since when have you been like that?”
Yongyong’s breath sent Rookie Guild Explorer away with one blow! But at that time, X was in the midst of climbing to obtain 10,000-year coral trees. Therefore, this was my first time witnessing Yongyong’s breath.
Quaaaaa!
Soon Yongyong’s breath burned away the deadly poison. Not only was it not enough to evaporate the deadly poison, but it also made the solid armor of the giant soldier boil.
‘Incredible destructive power!!’
Even X, who has high vitality, will suffer fatal injuries just by grazing with a breath of that power. While X was admiring Yongyong, a thought suddenly crossed his mind.
“Wait a minute, if I do this well…?”
X looked at the traveler’s sword he was holding.
The fire dragon’s teeth are ugly now, but they grow by absorbing vast amounts of flame energy and are transformed into a new form when fully grown.
A breath like that would be more than enough to satisfy the massive flames!
I can’t believe you can’t recognize me even with a huge flame next to you.
X smiled.
“I cherish you very much, Yongyong.”
Munchkin that I eat all by myself
