Chapter 290 The
Witch and the Dragon.
The story of a witch in a fairy tale who commanded an evil dragon to devour people began with Merlin right in front of her.
Hundreds of years ago, Merlin betrayed humans and attached himself to the monster forces, causing a war that eventually ate an entire kingdom.
When Merlin was called the Witch of Betrayal, it is said that there was a blue-scaled dragon by her side. The record of the evil dragon that froze hundreds of knights at once had been handed down until now, but it seemed that this helmet was made using the magic stone of the dragon.
Raon narrowed his eyes as he looked at the helmet floating in Merlin’s hand.
‘Are you sure.’
It’s the dragon in the story.
This helmet, with its sharp blue scales and fluttering sky-blue mane, must have been the dragon that Merlin had wielded at the time.
‘The reason I gave the elixir of cold was because of this guy.’
I wondered why the elixir was full of coldness, but it seems that it was a gift given to this dragon in advance.
‘It’s amazing.’
I didn’t even use the helmet yet, but I thought it was extremely sincere to try to raise the cold first using the elixir.
‘But isn’t this a bit dangerous if it’s a dragon?’
In the story, it only came out that Merlin was a bad dragon. It could be a weak dragon like a flying dragon or a earth dragon, but if it was a dragon, it could be dangerous.
‘No matter what anyone says, dragons are the strongest on the continent.’
Dragon’s alias is the strongest race and the mediator of the continent. If the soul inside this helmet is a dragon, it is dangerous even if it has a ring of fire.
-joy! What’s up with that lizard!
Lars snorted at the dragon’s helmet.
-The main king grilled, boiled, and fried those lizards.
‘you?’
– That’s right! The King is the Lord of Wrath! Dragons can be easily stepped on!
‘okay. okay.’
-hey! listen!
Raon nodded slightly as he watched Lars stretch out his fist.
It won’t be a lie.
Lars doesn’t lie. If you look at what he said, it meant that he had caught at least three dragons.
‘It might turn out easier than I thought.’
Raon looked up at Lars, who was snorting and exhaling.
“Is this a helmet made from the soul of a dragon?”
“well.”
Merlin let out a small laugh and lowered his eyes.
“You will find out tomorrow.”
She didn’t answer properly, saying that she would know if she wrote it herself.
“Then ask another question.”
“huh?”
“Are you really Merlin?”
Raon looked into Merlin’s eyes behind the old woman’s mask. His mysteriously colored eyes sparkled with heat.
“What do you think?”
“Until now, I thought it was long, but looking at this helmet, it looks like the real thing.”
Merlin said he had prepared the perfect pitch for their second encounter. When I saw him obsessing over the dragon’s helmet after kidnapping him using even the legendary consumables, I thought he might be the real Merlin.
‘There is something strange about it.’
Her skin, visible through the mask, is smooth and pure white without a single wrinkle. No matter how high he looked, he seemed to be about the same age as Encia.
‘In addition, Lohengrin said that he cut Merlin’s breath directly.’
Lohengrin explained himself and said that he had destroyed the witch’s castle and killed Merlin.
It doesn’t make sense that the dead come back, so it doesn’t make sense that the woman in front of you is Merlin.
‘No.’
Raon opened his eyes and swallowed dry saliva.
I’m alive too
As Raon the Assassin was reincarnated as Raon Sieghart, there was a possibility that Merlin was also reincarnated by something.
“You’ll know that question when you put on the helmet.”
Merlin covered the lips of the mask with his finger, saying that he would know everything by experiencing it himself.
“When do you wear a helmet?”
“tomorrow.”
As she waved her hand, the dragon’s helmet that had been floating in the air disappeared like smoke.
“I’ll start when the full moon rises tomorrow evening.”
The heat in Merlin’s eyes grew even hotter.
“Until then. It would be better to make the energy in that elixir yours.”
Merlin raised his finger and pointed to the elixir he had placed on the table.
“So you can be yourself even a little bit.”
She brushed Raon’s cheek down and let out an excited breath.
“See you tomorrow.”
Merlin shook his hand as if he had no regrets and left the room.
“The possibility of winning…”
Raon opened the lid of the neck armor. I laughed at the elixir that sprayed cold air.
‘If I eat this, the possibility of winning will disappear altogether.’
It was clear that he was thinking of tearing down the wall that blocks the soul, since more immortality had entered than yesterday.
-He didn’t hinder this demon, but helped him!
Lars clicked his tongue as he looked at the door Merlin had left.
-Pretends to be smart, but she’s a stupid bitch.
‘It’s not like that.’
Raon nodded. Merlin may have prepared immortality to help the dragon in the helmet, but the energy rather grew a ring of fire and a comic book that would be of great help when fighting the dragon.
As Lars said, it was no different from helping the enemy.
-joy. The original king never does anything helpful to the enemy. Wisdom is knowing the consequences of your actions.
‘
. I laughed out loud because it was absurd that I still didn’t know that I was the ruler of Hogu.
How did he become the Demon King?
what kind of idiot made it
* * *
Raon opened his eyes. Seeing the soft moonlight coming down from the window, the sun must have risen again outside.
‘It’s more than yesterday.’
Feeling a stronger and bigger aura than when he was in the family, he smiled lightly.
‘I can’t believe he grew up like this in two days.’
Not only Cartoonist and Glacia, but also the ring of fire that purified the immortality has grown.
I was kidnapped by an enemy, but if I told someone I didn’t know that I was stronger than before, I would be slapped on the face saying it was ridiculous.
‘Wouldn’t there be a few more elixirs?’
The efficiency of the same type of elixir decreases the more you eat it, but since there is no need to eat the immortality again anyway, I wanted to bring a little more.
-You’re the only one who thinks of picking it up and eating it in the enemy camp!
‘That’s what it means to be bold.’
Raon laughed and stood up. As I was lightly relaxing, the door opened and Merlin entered.
“Did it end well?”
“Yeah…”
He nodded with his eyes clearer than yesterday. I was confident in acting with fierce eyes because I had seen Runan a lot.
“Not bad.”
Merlin looked into those eyes and nodded his head in satisfaction. The mouth that slightly lifted the mask twisted like a vine and went up.
“Unfortunately, I can’t play today. I have to prepare for the night.”
As she laid down the meal she had brought on the table, her eyes glistened with subtle red.
“I’ll pick you up in the evening.”
“okay.”
Raon just nodded his head with blind eyes.
“Whoops.”
Merlin stroked his hair and went outside.
Raon immediately shaved his head and sat down on the table. After a quick meal, I left the room.
As I walk down the hallway to leave Daejeon, I feel quite different gazes from yesterday. The demons of Eden have greeted you a little more politely.
‘Am I really accepting it now?’
Apparently, it was confirmed that he would wear a helmet today, so he really seemed to regard him as an executive of Eden.
‘I’m sorry, but it won’t work the way you guys think’ -I
keep feeling it, but don’t you have any anxiety?
Lars rested his chin on his shoulder and frowned.
‘unrest?’
-Isn’t it a situation where you don’t know if you’re alone in enemy territory and your body might be taken away? No matter how you look at it, it’s not human guts.
‘at all.’
Raon shook his head.
I beat you, but can I be scared?
As soon as Lars announced that he had defeated the dragon, the tension disappeared like a candle.
I won lightly in a mental battle with the Lord of Wrath, but I was confident that I could win no matter who the opponent was.
Knowing that mental attacks don’t work, if you put pressure with physical force, there was also a last resort to open the las and smash this place and run away.
Because there is no one to protect.
If there is a gwangpungdan, you can’t arbitrarily descend Lars, but all the humans here are enemies. Rather, I felt more comfortable than when I was with my allies.
After pulling out all the food, I was confident that I would somehow get out of it, so let alone nervous, I was just happy.
– He’s a strange guy.
Lars frowned, not knowing that he was putting his mind at ease.
-Where are you going now?
‘I know when I see it.’
Raon went out of Daejeon, leisurely receiving greetings from the ghosts wearing robes and masks as if it was natural.
He approached the edge of the barrier and raised his hand.
Whoa!
As soon as I used the aura to reveal the barrier, the energy I felt yesterday soared from behind.
“What else is going on today?”
The Golden Hair Thread twisted its chin crookedly as if it were annoying.
“….”
The Jeolsoul Sword appeared in front of the wall and looked this way while standing like a stone statue.
Srrrrreung!
Raon took out his heavenly sword and pointed it at the golden thread, smiling.
“Let’s play together today.”
At those words, Lars and the Golden Mask both opened their mouths at the same time.
“You madman!”
– You madman!
* * *
Whoa!
The Golden Mask guarded Raon’s sword attack and frowned.
‘what?’
Is it different from yesterday?
I couldn’t easily push back the swordsmanship I had lightly bounced off yesterday. Like a beast seeking prey, Raon cleverly penetrated the gap and stabbed his sword.
“Tsk!”
The Golden Mask clicked her tongue and straightened her wrist. I erased the softness of the sword and added strength and weight.
‘I’ll press you down.’
Just like yesterday, I grabbed the sword with both hands and struck it down in order to overwhelm it with power and aura. It was a sword strike that fell obliquely like lightning.
Jiji Jijik!
As the thunderbolts poured down as if splitting Raon’s head in half, his movements suddenly changed. I took my feet back half a step, turned my waist to the right, and struck the center of the thrust with the hot sword.
Whoa!
The Chu-jeolleo twisted without being able to exert its full power, and even lost its balance.
Whoa!
As if he had waited, Raon approached like a ray of light and swung his sword. Explosive energy soared above the silver-white blade.
‘You idiot!’
Perhaps he was impatient at the thought of seizing his chance, and Raon’s sword attack revealed a small gap.
“go away!”
The Golden Mask snorted and sprayed red oil at Raon’s gap. It was a life-threatening blade that broke through gaps without mercy.
Chiyiying!
The moment when Jeokseongyu tries to hit Raon’s gap. Red eyes flashed in Raon’s eyes.
Whoa!
As if the young light in his eyes permeated the blade, Raon’s swordsmanship was firmly established.
The thickly filled aura completely blocked the flow of red oil and launched a terrifying counterattack.
Whoaaaaa!
Two young sparks on the blade rotated fiercely, aiming at the neck and chest.
“Big!”
The Golden Myeonsa swiftly swung her sword and struck at the Feast of Defense, Hwigoncheom.
Whoa!
The two steel swords collided, and an intense shockwave exploded. Out of the crushed earth, Raon took eight steps, and the Golden Face took six steps.
It was the same clash as yesterday, but Raon’s damage was reduced by two steps and the number of steps of the Golden Face increased by one.
“Huh…”
The Golden Mask looked at Raon with an absurd look.
‘How is this going now?’
He practiced his swordsmanship with more fighting spirit than yesterday, but Raon received sword attacks more easily and lightly and even counterattacked. My lips trembled in disbelief.
‘Was it possible to become this strong in one day?’
Since Merlin fed the elixir to Raon, it was natural for his aura to become stronger.
But the delay now is not because of Aura. His swordsmanship was vastly different from yesterday.
Even if he attained enlightenment, it would be impossible for his swordsmanship to develop to this extent in one day. I don’t know what kind of magic he used.
‘If it develops to this level…’
It must be dangerous.
The Golden Mask swallowed dry saliva. I thought that if I really grew to this level every day, even if I couldn’t, I might be in the same position as myself in the 10th match.
“Whoa.”
The Golden Mask lowered his sword and straightened his back.
“Sorry.”
“What do you mean?”
“It’s a pity that you have talent. It would have been fun to fight a few more times.”
“…”
Raon also raised his head with the jecheon sword lowered.
“If I wear the helmet of Eden, will I cease to be me?”
“To be precise, it should be called a fairy tale.”
“Fairytale?”
“okay. Your soul will be absorbed by the entity inside the helmet.”
The Golden Mask patted his own snake helmet and smiled.
“Assimilation can happen right away or it can happen slowly. When you naturally do something you wouldn’t normally do, that’s when it starts.”
“Then, can I use fighting from that moment on?”
“Are you thinking of becoming stronger even though you will disappear? he’s really crazy I can see why he had such powerlessness at his age.”
He giggled amusedly, holding his forehead and laughing.
“right. From the beginning of assimilation, speculation can be used like an instinct. Because that’s the way it is.”
The Golden Face Master gazed at Raon and put the sword into the scabbard.
“Today, just stop here. The excitement has gone down.”
He turned his back and waved his hand.
“Come back tomorrow too.”
Raon looked at the back of the Golden Mask and spoke softly.
“It is meaningless.”
The Golden Mask laughed and disappeared like smoke.
“…”
Even though the Golden Face Temple had left, the Jeolsoul Sword didn’t back down and just looked this way with the same attitude on the spot.
The golden eyes with no emotion seemed to say something, but I couldn’t figure out what it meant.
“You…”
“Raon!”
As Raon tried to approach the soul sword, the air distorted and Merlin jumped out.
“Did you fight that idiot again?”
She frowned at the crushed floor.
“Don’t play with the dirty snake kid. Because even you get messy.”
“I have nothing to do. Swinging the sword puts my mind at ease.”
Raon answered with a slight tear in his eyes. Originally, when the mind was dazed, it took instinctive movements, so it did not show any suspicious eyes.
“After today, you’ll be able to step on that little snake lightly.”
Merlin smiled softly and took his hand. She cupped the back of her hand with her strangely hot hand and curled up her mouth.
“Now the preparations are complete. It is time to be born as a stronger you.”
Raon licked his lips while facing Merlin’s eyes, which were burning with anticipation.
‘The preparations are finished here too.’
Ready to devour your dragon.
