9th Class Sword Master: The Guardian of the Sword Chapter 235

Episode 235

Episode 89. Rugal Raijin (2)

‘Why is the Eastern Emperor a dragon?’

The other party didn’t notice Rugal’s identity at all.

It was natural. There was no one in the entire East who knew that Rugal was a dragon.

At least Natalie, who had met Kriesha once, was the only one who looked at Yuma’s atmosphere and guessed that Rugal was something special.

Ordinary people of this era could not guess that he was a dragon just because he had something like jewels embedded in his body. Common sense about dragons began to be known only after the dragon and horse wars began.

In particular, dragons that transformed into humans could only be seen occasionally by warriors who fought with them on the front lines or those who worked in the imperial castle and lord castle.

Therefore, no one would have recognized that Rugal was a dragon at this point.

‘The rumor that Emperor Rugal of Kantra is a dragon has never been heard even before returning. Well, the East and the West almost cut off exchanges after the Dragon Horse War… The

emperor of the East, who is not enough to be a dragon, even tries to activate the slave market in the dark. Yuma couldn’t infer Rugal’s intentions at all.

why the hell

It was as if a tangled ball of thread had fallen in my head.

-Save the Spaser family.

-yes? What is that…

– It’s a story about freeing us from Rugal.

It was a conversation I had with Juan Spaser before leaving for the East.

At the time, I thought that Juan had some weakness in Rugal, but now that I look at it, it seems that it is not simply such a problem.

‘Did Juan tell you in advance that the human, Rugal, is a dragon and ask for that? I must have known.’

What was at least comforting was the fact that he had a magic sword, Amula, on his left arm that he could summon at any time.

It’s not like you’re facing a dragon with a high probability of becoming an enemy without a sword.

I had to regain my composure.

It was a completely unexpected development, but it was not the first time I had met a dragon. Even if Rugal wasn’t a dragon, but even more absurd than that, Yuma had to negotiate.

Yuma remembered the words he heard when he first met Krisha.

-I feel grateful to Zecca and you guys. If one day you encounter our people and you are in danger, name me.

It was a story told by the great blue dragon who protects the North Sea.

It seemed that Rugal would not be higher in the hierarchy than Krisha, the spirit of Mahatrisha.

Aren’t they encounters several times a day during the Dragon Demon War? I haven’t even started a full-fledged conversation with Rugal yet.

Thinking that far, Yuma decided that there was no need to panic.

“Lhasa. I told Blue Sword to capture you alive, but I did not order you to die.”

“your majesty. I just spent my days thinking of myself as being like the dust of the imperial castle. I didn’t like Hwangseong, so I often went outside.

Why won’t you leave me alone? Have I ever offended Your Majesty?”

Rasa was clearly conveying her intentions to Rugal.

“I didn’t know I was in a position where I had to get someone’s permission when I hurt others. Rasa, you were born as a princess and did not fulfill your duties.”

“What do you mean by that?”

“It means that I knew how to just get my fill without fighting.

Whose blood and sweat did you think were the treasures filled with gold and silver treasures that you used to use?”

The moment Lhasa was about to answer, Rugal stood up from the throne.

Then, a tremendous energy engulfed the inside of the audience room, and everyone except Yuma and Natalie felt intense dizziness.

“Don’t you like that Jim took away your privileges?”

Rasa couldn’t breathe properly because of the pressure, and her body just trembled.

The energy emitted by Rugal continued to grow stronger, to the point where it seemed as if a slight earthquake had occurred inside the throne room.

Not long after, Rugal’s energy became so strong that even Natalie felt burdened. Rasa had already collapsed and was crawling on the floor.

However, Yuma straightened one knee and looked at Rugal. Yuma waved his hand as if splitting water and drove away Rugal’s energy that had spread around him.

Whoa…. The intangible energy was offset by the heavy sound of the wind.

Yuma took a deep breath and took a step in front of Rugal.

“I am late to greet you, dear John of the East. I am Yuma Drake, Baron of the Western Kyle Empire.”

“iced coffee. no wonder. You must have been that Yuma.”

Fire!

A dark glare flickered in Rugal’s eyes. It was a dragon that he had grown accustomed to because he had experienced it so often. The dragon’s eye instantly dyed the inside of the huge throne room in ink.

Rugal started examining Yuma’s face through his eyes.

Then, slightly raising the corner of his mouth, he reached out his hand toward Yuma.

“Wrinkles on his forehead… What an annoying human being.”

Rugal narrowed his brows and said.

“I would appreciate it if you could understand me.”

Could it be that I will hear the sound of the boundary again this time? I had already heard the expression that Hugo and Krissa had wrinkles on their foreheads a few times.

What they had in common was their longing.

Of course, Rugal also had a dragon’s eye, so his eyes seemed to show the wrinkles on his forehead.

Rugal didn’t answer and carefully grabbed his outstretched hand.

Then, surprisingly, the inside of the throne room was engulfed in black flames, and the dark flames burned roaringly, distorting the space rather than burning objects.

‘This…

the black flames seemed to erase space. Wherever the flames touched, the scenery became blurry, as if water evaporated.

For some reason Yuma wasn’t afraid or offended by that scene. Rather, looking at the black flames seemed to put my mind at ease.

And Yuma was able to realize. That a new dimension had opened in Eltainer’s audience room.

It was a sensation he had experienced once in the wreckage of the underworld.

The figures of his colleagues, hardened like stone statues and unable to blink, also disappeared under the dark flames. They didn’t come into this dimension.

flutter!

Before he knew it, Rugal was spreading his wings wide in his true form as a huge black dragon. The black scales covering Rugal’s entire body swayed softly.

Rugal moved his long, thick neck downward and pressed his face against Yuma. One protruding fang was longer than Yuma’s forearm.

Her amber eyes stood out with sharp black eyes like knives. Yuma, who met Rugal’s eyes, clenched his fists and guessed what the hell this black dragon was thinking.

[As expected, you’re not surprised to see my true self.]

“I didn’t know that the emperor of the East was a dragon. Ah… did you transform into the old man who was said to have cured Emperor Rugal and steal his body?”

Rasa said that after meeting the old man, Rugal’s personality changed dramatically.

As a member of the royal family, she also didn’t know that Rugal was a dragon, so Yuma guessed that the old man was the dragon who stole Rugal’s body.

[Yes. The real Rugal was already dead then. Now I am Rugalai Jin.]

“You are telling me in a rather light way.

It’s a story that will turn the whole world upside down if it’s known to the outside world. But, at best, to obtain the body of an Eastern emperor is to look after a human like Rong Doge and have a concubine?”

[Do you think you can leave this dimension alive?]

“Of course. This is why I am the messenger of the dragon race.”

[A messenger of the Balaur?]

“You must know Krysa Ainu, right? He told me to tell him his name if I ever encounter a dragon and am in danger.”

[Hahahaha!] Rugal did not stop laughing for a long time.

Yuma was annoyed for some reason and wanted to summon Amulla and shove him in the scruff of his neck.

[It’s unfortunate. The name of Kriesha Inu doesn’t work for me.

No dragon can interfere with me. Even if it’s a load.]

“You speak as if there is a greater presence behind you.

Or being treated like an idiot among dragons.”

Woo woo woo!

Instead of answering, Rugal swung his paw at Yuma. It was unbelievably fast to come out of that enormous body.

Yuma was able to flatten and dodge his front paws. Dark flames rose in the black air as thick nails like battering rams passed through it.

[You need a lesson, humans outside the realm. I don’t know what you’re talking about, but

if you’re thinking of doing something with your strength, you’d better quit.”

Yuma summoned Amula and said as she took a stance.

At that moment, Rugal freaked out and hurriedly flew to the back and pulled himself out. It was as if he had faced the most feared thing in the world.

Yuma opened her eyes wide and stared at Rugal, who opened the distance in an instant.

[Oh what! why do you have that! Reap it right away!]

As soon as he saw Amulla, Rugal lost his composure and gave off an air of shrinking like a frightened cat.

“You broke Amanzo’s subordinates and stole them, so what’s the matter?”

[Reap! If you take it out in this space, it will be exposed to Hwa!]

“That’s so…

staggering.

For a moment, Yuma felt a sharp pain, as if someone had poked a needle into his head. It was accompanied by a strange sensation as if all the nerves in the body were cut off.

[Kaaaaaaa!]

Kung!

Yuma only stumbled, but Rugal screamed as he fell to the floor.

He flapped his wings and banged his head on the floor as if the pain was unbearable.

[Please take it away!]

Rugal shouted as if pleading.

By then, Yuma’s pain had completely subsided.

Unlike Rugal, who was constantly affected by an unknown force, Yuma recognized that his physical condition was no different from usual.

Bad! baek!

Rugal didn’t stop banging his head on the ground like crazy. Even thick streams of tears began to flow from his huge amber eyes.

It didn’t match the majestic black dragon at all.

Seeing Rugal writhing in pain made me want to reap something like what he said right away.

However, being pitiful is pitiful, and Yuma had no intention of just accepting his request.

“I will reap something. If you promise me three things.”

[Don’t tell me. Hurry up!]

“First. Didn’t you bring in a new red-haired concubine this time?

Hand her over to me.”

[What’s next, haha!]

Originally, the second was to guarantee the safety of himself and his colleagues, and the third was to demand that the Spazer family be freed.

However, as the scales covering Rugal’s body began to fall to the floor one by one, even Yuma, who was cold-hearted and merciless in negotiating and threatening, could not bear to watch any longer.

Yuma gathered up something and approached Rugal, who was in a state of disrepair.
