Dragon-Devouring Mage Chapter 109

Episode 109

EPISODE.55

‘Excel Haste.’

Along with the starter word, light green magic light swirled around Russell’s heel.

At the same time, Russell’s model crossed the red canyon like a flash battle.

Papababat-.

Russell, who had covered a distance of hundreds of kilometers in a single breath several hours after he had escaped from the Underworld, moved his gaze.

glance-.

He looked at the green arrow that appeared like a clock on his left wrist.

‘Is it still far…’

Whether or not you know Russell’s heart, the green arrows are only pointing in the same direction all the time.

‘How much more do I have to go?’

It was the trace of a dragon that had been barely caught after a year and a half of shoveling.

It wouldn’t be strange if I got caught halfway through, but whatever.

I didn’t want to miss that trace. Besides, that wasn’t the only reason Russell was quickening his pace.

‘That voice.’

The voice that resonated in my head a few hours ago was distinctly different from the one I had heard the day before.

‘Perhaps it’s because the owners of the two voices are different dragons.’

If the former is the Dragon God King, the latter is an ordinary dragon. It’s probably a silver dragon.

The problem was the silver dragon’s voice.

‘It was a voice that was thin and gasping for breath.’

If I were to compare it to a human being, should I say that it felt like a situation on the verge of death?

Of course, it may have been a simple illusion. The silver dragon’s voice could have been originally like that.

But there was nothing wrong with being in a hurry, so Russell accelerated the new model once again.

He was the one who could reach the realm of subsonic speed if it was momentary.

In my mind, I wanted to move towards the direction the arrow was pointing at the same speed.

But I didn’t know how long to go on.

‘I should keep as much physical strength as possible.’

I didn’t know what was going to happen.

After traversing the canyon like that, Russell murmured as he confirmed that the shape of the arrow began to change little by little for several more hours.

“Is it soon?”

Just like that.

It is noticeable that the tip of the long stretched arrow is getting shorter little by little.

At this rate, sooner or later, the pointy point will disappear completely and remain in the shape of a complete circle.

‘It must be that there is a dragon right there.’

Parbabat-.

How many more times did he cross the red canyon like that? Russell stopped in his tracks, confirming that the arrow floating above his wrist had transformed into a perfect circle.

‘Is this here?’

What appeared before his eyes was a wooden house.

It was a wooden house that looked very old and shabby even at a glance, no matter how long it had not been maintained.

Sometimes, it looked like a tent made by hunters to spend the night in the mountains.

Either way, it’s a completely different look from the dragon’s dwelling place.

However, what was clear was that the green arrow on his wrist was definitely pointing towards this wooden jade.

‘Perhaps this wooden jade is like a medium leading to the silver dragon’s dwelling to hide the passage?’

Russell, who had caught his breath with an extremely wizard-like guess, reached out his hand.

I pulled the door of the wooden house.

Anger at that moment!

The world around him changed completely.

.

.

‘here is-.’

In the next moment, what Russell saw was a huge cavity that looked wide even at a glance.

‘No, it’s not a joint…’

To be precise, it is a passage with a wide width and height enough to be mistaken for a joint.

Looking back, the scenery of the red canyon came into his eyes beyond the door he had just opened.

‘I knew it.’

The entrance to the crumbling wooden house was just a medium leading to the inside of the dwelling.

Of course, not everyone who opens the door will be able to enter this place.

Is it just a wooden prison?

Otherwise, there will be more complex conditions than expected between functioning as an entrance to this place.

Otherwise, adventurers passing through this place would open the door of the wooden prison and come in.

‘Anyway.’

Kik-.

Squeak-.

When I closed the door, the green arrow that had formed on my wrist disappeared.

Right after that, Russell slowly moved towards the inside of the cavity.

Even though he didn’t use magic, there was no big problem in distinguishing the front.

It was because the same type of luminous stones that were lighting up the ceiling of the Underworld stretched along the passage like torches.

So Russell moved the new model along the huge aisle.

It was a passageway with nothing special about it except for its wide width and high ceiling and glowstone.

‘They say that dragons like gold and silver treasures is an unfounded rumor…’

Just as he said, it was the ultimate in simplicity, with no splendor to be found.

Of course, there will be dragons who like to collect gold and silver treasures and other rare items depending on their personality.

Just as people have different personalities, they also have different personalities.

‘But this silver dragon doesn’t belong there.’

After about fifteen minutes of walking, thinking about this and that, Russell finally reached the end of the aisle.

To be precise, it was not the end, but a new beginning.

‘Is it a stone gate?’

It was a stone gate so huge that its existence could be recognized from a distance of about 30m in height.

As Russell approaches, the stone gate begins to open as if he had waited.

Guggugggug-.

With a heavy noise, the inside view was revealed.

“her-.”

The cavity, which was much wider than the passage through which I had walked so far, was filled with quartz that grew beautifully like corals in the sea.

The scenery was so beautiful that in nine cases out of ten it was a sight to behold.

However, Russell did not take his eyes off the sight.

Because there was someone who caught his eye first.

It was in the middle of a wide cavity and beautifully grown quartz.

Like a veil, it was covered with scales that radiated a beautiful luster, as if made of silver, and wings made of a film of the same color.

mystery itself.

The dragon you’ve been looking for so long.

The silver dragon was right there.

.

.

Swoop-.

Did you wake up to the sound of the stone gate opening? Or is it because they noticed that Russell had entered?

The silver dragon crouched in its seat slowly half-opened its closed eyes.

The amber eyes that appeared along with him turned toward Russell.

[Are you here? You who will be the master of all dragons. The silver dragon, Sylvete, greets you.]

A voice came.

It’s right in my ear, and it rings in my head as clearly as a whisper.

It was a polite yet respectful voice that was unbelievable for a dragon.

[Forgive me for greeting the owner with such an attitude because it is not good manners to get up from the seat and welcome, but the state of the spirit and body is not good.] “

The state of the spirit and body is not good. Are you sick anywhere?”

At Russell’s question, the silver dragon’s eyes curved in an arc.

[Your young owner is kind.]

He must have a lot of questions, but he said to Russell, who was concerned nonetheless.

[However, don’t worry. As time goes by, it is natural for the body and soul to deteriorate, just as a huge rock weathers and turns into small grains of sand.] In simple words, it was a

story that his own death was imminent.

‘They say they’re a species that lives for 10,000 years…’

Russell was speechless at the sight of the dragon, who calmly told him that his senility and death were imminent.

[If possible, I would like to talk with the young master, but please forgive me for prioritizing the entrusted task as the time allowed for me is not very long.] After speaking, one of the silver dragon Sylvester’s horns emits a brilliant light

. Start.

[I will return the power I received from the previous owner to the new owner.]

The silver waves that flowed out gathered in front of Russell and transformed into new horns.

At the same time, the size of the horns on Sylvester rapidly decreased.

Soon after, the shape of a translucent horn with an appearance as if made by combining wind was completed.

“This…?!”

A green window popped up.

A notification sound was heard.

[Inherited new powers from Silver Dragon Sylvester.]

[Dragon King’s Horn (Purification of Wind)]

Following fire and lightning, this horn has the power of wind.

However, the name was slightly different from before.

Before, it was clearly written ‘Horn of the Forgotten King’, but this time it was written correctly as ‘Dragon God King’.

‘Maybe it’s because I had a conversation with the Dragon King.’

Thinking so, Russell reached out his hand.

I stored the horn of the Dragon God King in front of me in a subspace.

‘I can’t consume this right now.’

The abilities of the horns he had consumed so far were largely divided into two.

The first of them was to greatly increase the understanding of the attribute, and the second was…

‘It was to increase the amount of magic.’

But isn’t Russell’s magical power reaching the end of the 5th circle and being blocked by the wall of the 6th circle?

Moreover, the 6th circle was just as important as the 3rd circle in learning magic.

‘Steps to reach the limit as a human being and prepare to overcome the wall at the same time.’

Considering it in many ways, it was better to consume it after breaking down the wall instead of now.

Perhaps guessing Russell’s thoughts, Sylvester politely replied.

[May it be done as you wish.]

It was right after.

There was deep regret in Sylvester’s voice that followed.

[Oh no. It seems that this is the end.]

When I raised my head, I saw that Sylvester’s body had turned into silver powder and was scattering.

I haven’t been able to ask anything yet.

“What is this…!?”

[I would have liked to talk a little more with the young owner if possible, but it seems that I have ended here.]

Russell shouted, unable to hide his embarrassment, and Sylvester laughed bitterly.

[However, this is not the end of the mission given to me.]

The silver powder that was flying around began to shine more brilliantly than before.

With half of his body already turned into powder and disappearing, Sylvester raised his head.

I narrowed my eyes as if I was staring into the distance.

[Fortunately, there is a child not far away who will become a new dragon and continue my power in place of me who left no posterity.]

Keyiing-.

“Ugh…”

With a sharp tinnitus, Russell clutched his head.

As if a mental projection had taken place, powerful mental waves were flowing from Sylvester.

The mental wave that flowed in like that drew a shape in Russell’s head.

An elf with silver hair and silver eyes.

“- Mr. Io!?”

The moment Russell, startled, muttered the name!

[I will leave my strength to the child who inherited the family’s genealogy.]

Sylvester’s huge body turned into a bright silver halo.

In an instant, he disappeared from the spot.

Hwaaak!
