Episode 243. Like a dragon (5)
Antique glasses draped over the bridge of the nose.
A reverently upright waist.
What he held in his hand was a fancy fountain pen.
Skal,
who had been writing something for a long time, opened his mouth.
“No…”
Soon enough screams filled the Rothschild mansion.
“This is not it!!”
what were you going to write?
No one will look and ask.
At this moment, the players were writing lines with one purpose.
The only way to enter the Arcana Continent. To get permission to use the connector from Hoyeol.
The declaration was announced at the round table meeting of the Mage Tower, but the target was not limited to the wizards of the Mage Tower. The important thing is a reasonable purpose, not something like belonging.
Thanks to the players, of course.
Even the Arkans.
Everyone was going through the ordeal of untimely creation.
Take a moment to pull your hair out.
Skaarl straightened his fountain pen again.
Even at this moment.
“…Let’s face it, Scara.”
Competitors will not stop their hands.
However, Skaarl could be assured.
There is no one who has a more desperate purpose than himself.
──────
To Lord Hoyeol, who is respected, dear, and deserving of worship.
──────
It was a greeting that the person concerned would faint if they read it.
Skal finished with a serious expression.
Then he moved his gaze to the quest window.
[Class Quest: Convening All Dragons]
Noryong shouted.
The ‘great family’ has returned to the Arcana continent.
All dragons want to know the truth of the incident.
– Witness the dragons gathering on the continent. (Failure)
─Encounter the dying old dragon. (In progress)
The dragon is dying, not anyone else…!
How could there be only one dragon in Arcana?
Skal also had something to notice.
The story of the class quest was drawn in my head.
‘I rescued the old dragon from danger, and thanks to that, my intimacy increased and I got to ride a dragon for the first time.
Of course, I didn’t know how to revive a dying dragon.
However, the immediate goal is to just encounter the old dragon.
If only I could enter the Arcana Continent through the connector.
Great progress in class quests.
It will bring you one step closer to the Dragon Knight.
“There will be no player more desperate than me, Sir Ho Yeol…!”
It was not wrong.
At the same time, there was one guy who was writing out applications for permission to use connectors with more fanaticism than Skal. He is the senior wizard of the Mage Tower, not a player.
Anguish that doesn’t end easily.
This is not it.
Neither is this.
This too…!
Skaarl made up his mind after tore a few more sheets of parchment.
“Something like a well-packaged purpose.”
If it’s Lord Hoyeol anyway, he’ll see through everything.
I thought it would be better to reveal the purpose clearly.
Why didn’t Lord Hoyeol know something about the old dragon?
‘Because he even knew the name Yunaxus.’
maybe i
It may be necessary for Lord Hoyeol’s progress.
Skaarl carefully scribbled with his fountain pen with high expectations.
It was then.
“…?”
What flickered in front of my eyes.
Skal was taken aback.
Since he was just writing down his fountain pen, it wasn’t a notification that his experience or level had risen. There was no way the skill proficiency had risen. There was only one quest that could shine.
Goosebumps ran down his spine.
“…Can you stand?!”
Did the old dragon that was dying die?
In an instant, a dark cloud hung over Skal’s face.
Skaarl tried to gather his heart and confirmed the quest.
Then he let out a single sigh.
“…Eh?”
—Encounter the dying old dragon. (Failure)
It was a failure once.
But if you ask me why did I spit out a question instead of a scream?
It was because I noticed it in the message that came up next.
That Noryong died and did not fail.
[World Quest: Noryong’s last flight]
The dying Noryong made a decision.
He said he would burn his own end for the future of his people.
The continent will tremble at the old dragon’s scolding.
– Witness the end of the old dragon. (in progress)
“What what!”
I couldn’t help but be flustered.
Wasn’t it the old dragon that was dying just a moment ago?
During the time I was scribbling with my fountain pen.
What the hell happened…?
“For the future of my people? The continent shudders at the scolding…?”
A new quest has come to mind!
I was wondering if anyone knows.
Skal connected to the community.
“doesn’t exist.”
But nothing was different.
Everyone is rolling rice cakes about the greatness of the connector and Lord Hoyeol.
There was no story about Noryong even after washing his eyes.
‘…It’s a quest that only came to mind for me.’
dragon knight.
Because he has a hidden class related to dragons.
Even if you don’t know English.
Or even in reality, a completely different world.
It was certain that the World Quest came to mind.
In that sense, Skal was even more motivated.
“This is no time to be discouraged.”
If you have failed the class quest.
How to succeed in the new world quest.
Skal opened his eyes and wrote down the application for permission to use the connector.
Sometimes not knowing was the medicine…
*
I’m sorry, Skal.
How did I do this…!
I checked the message floating in front of my eyes.
[Achievement: Riding the dragon, the king of all things.]
Mount.
Ever since Arcana was just a game.
It was one of the most important factors for players.
The Arcana continent was vast.
A vehicle was unnecessary only in a city where portals were constantly appearing, but a vehicle such as a wagon or horse was essential when leaving the city.
I didn’t have the time or stamina left to run long distances.
‘At the time, the cost of the carriage was no joke.’
That’s why the knight class was in the limelight among players without capital. As long as he changed his job to a knight and joined any knight guild, he could acquire an expensive horse for free.
Of course, it’s a natural enough thing to say.
Demon hunters and mounts had nothing to do with it.
You can guess just by looking at Akshan’s daily routine, right?
He is a demon hunter who only trains his physical strength on fictitious days.
What does it mean to ride with two strong legs?
No, there is no need for a long explanation, you can tell just by looking at the skill window.
[Natural enemy relationship] [Exorcism] [Silver Mastery].
‘There’s no way there’s such a thing as a horseback riding skill.’
So when Yunaxus suggested it, I was a little worried.
I got on and fell off the horse…
No, I wondered if I might lose my precious life by falling down. However, it seemed that Skaarl was not obsessed with riding the dragon for nothing.
[Effect: Increases proficiency for all mounts to the maximum level.]
[Duration: Permanently]
Is this a simple achievement achievement effect?!
no matter how first.
The proficiency of all mounts is permanently increased to the maximum. It wasn’t enough that my eyes widened, so the effect was enough to make me jump out.
Again, I had no color.
“This view isn’t bad either.”
I was like always
As if it wasn’t because of the effect of the achievement.
As if he was accustomed to riding from the beginning.
It was that he was standing upright on the back of Yunaxus.
“I thought I would never be able to fly again.”
Is the feeling of being able to glide again new?
Yunaxus said in a slightly strained voice.
I don’t show it, but I am the same, Yunaxus.
‘I didn’t expect this to happen either.’
According to Skal.
It is safe to say that boarding a dragon was the ultimate goal of a hidden class dragon knight.
In a word, a scenery that can only be witnessed by completing the Dragon Knight class quest to the end.
This is the view I am witnessing from the back of Yunaxus.
In that sense…
…how many intermediate steps did I skip?
The reason I was able to skip it was nothing else.
‘…Cloudy.’
Yunaxus’ stubbornness is not normal.
You don’t have to go far, you can see it just by looking at ‘that day’ when heavenly luck followed.
Although the youngest member, Hi-L, dissuaded him.
All I can say is don’t worry.
It was Yunaxus who was truly trying to put an end to it.
in that sense.
‘Is Cloudy’s halo bigger than the genealogy of the World Tree…?’
…I’m really afraid of the Cloudy family!
While I was sighing inwardly.
A tiger or a dragon will come to you if you say what you say.
Yunaxus asked me politely.
“Can the lowly old dragon ask for Cloudy’s name?”
my name.
Well, it’s not difficult to tell the name.
I answered without hesitation.
“Lee Ho-yeol. That is my name.”
If you knew how to answer with a terrible full name, you’d be mistaken.
By the way…
I’m not telling you to get off because you saw the wrong person now, right?
‘It’s complicated to say, but it’s both me anyway.’
Fortunately.
It was just rain.
Because Yunaxus spoke with a satisfied voice.
“I will not forget your grace, Cloudy Lee Ho-yeol.”
…wait for a sec. What now?!
What is that fusion-style name that is as monstrous as Grandfell Cloudy Arpheus Romeo?! It means Ho-yeol Lee of the Lee family, not Ho-yeol Lee of the Cloudy family…!
the world over there.
In Korea, the family name comes first and the given name comes after.
So please, like Lee Ho-yeol and Cloudy.
Won’t you call me by that horrible name?!
‘But when are you explaining this again…?’
I mean, it’s like a heart. It’s not a genealogy of a world tree like bean powder, but what a real genealogy is, what the main building is, and what the rotator is. I just wanted to kindly explain.
I couldn’t afford it.
Suddenly.
Because my eyes were blinking.
It was an appearance message.
[The Bingryong Prosnax appears.]
In an instant.
Whii-i-i-!
An uncontrollable chill raged in the gap of a dimension where nothing but darkness existed. No, it wasn’t just energy. Because the frost was really flying in front of my eyes.
[The coldness of Prosnax changes the whole area.]
Indeed, it is the dragon, the king of all things.
Even the dimensional gap is changed to be like the master bedroom at home.
The world of ice revealed in the clearing darkness.
At the top of a lofty iceberg that has risen before you know it.
I saw Bingryong spreading his wings like an ice statue.
[You have entered the snow mountain of Bingryong, Hidden Peace.]
Hidden Peace.
I should have been happy
Likewise, there are no birds to rejoice.
Because Yunaxus immediately howled ferociously.
“Prosnax!!”
Still, it’s because I’m the same people in the old face.
Wouldn’t it be better for Yunaxus to enter first than me?
I will withdraw my complacency I thought.
“Don’t hypocrites bring out my name, Yunaxus!!”
There is no real blood or tears, you guys!
I could feel it thanks to riding on Yunaxus’ back.
A heartbeat that gets wilder out of control.
That the two dragons really intend to end it.
Sweetheart-!
The blowing snow is cold.
If it hadn’t been for the effect of the elixir I took to open the circle. It was so cold that I froze long ago. I said to Hiel, who didn’t try to express himself.
“Get away from here, Hiel.”
“I apologize for not being helpful. Lord.”
“I have nothing to apologize for. Good work.”
A chill that even the native spirit, Highel, could not bear.
Projecting such an ignorant place on your own?
Indeed, Bingryong deserves the grandiose modifier.
But is it because of the cold air?
I was able to look at the situation with a cold head.
First of all, I couldn’t feel the devil’s presence in the dimensional gap.
Because of that, [Natural Enemy Relations] was not activated.
‘It should be seen that the power is cut in half.’
In that state, it must have been properly caught up in the family quarrel between Noryong and Bingryong. Anyone can see that it is a situation where Lee Ho-yeol and others burst out in a dragon fight.
but.
“It’s more cool than cool.”
I spoke nonchalantly.
Unbreakable under any circumstances.
Thanks to Grandfell’s lofty pride?
Of course, pride cannot be ignored.
“Is this the end of the welcome, Bingryong?”
But do not underestimate, King of all.
“Then, this time it’s the turn of my mage tower.”
If it’s temperamental hair.
The back end of the Mage Tower wizards who are the second most grieved…!
That dragons are a race unaccustomed to defeat and humiliation?
It’s the same with the wizards of the Mage Tower.
What do you think the Mage Tower would have done after taking the defeat in the Dragon Demon War as a lesson? How long have you been trembling because dragons are not to be touched?
Could it be!
In particular, the ‘him’ I knew was very fanatical in this respect.
Bingryong for such a nobleman?
Maybe it was like looking into a mirror.
In that sense.
He must have grasped Bingryong’s weakness the best.
One magic book left in the Mage Tower library.
──────
Thirty Ways to Make Bingryong Fall
──────
The author’s name is Senios of the Icecap.
I am Bingryong.
He looked at Prosnax and muttered.
“The Mage Tower learned a lesson from the Dragon Demon War, which you all thought was just a game. Because I am an imperfect human being, I struggled and struggled, crawling on the floor and moving forward. Then I arrived in front of you again.”
Soon, he brought out the first way to crash Bingryong.
“?!”
Then a message popped up.
[‘Thaw’ occurs in Bingryong Prosnax.]
“Does it still feel like a funny game?”
