Chapter 157 Kill the Dragon (1)
Dragon.
An imaginary being that exists in any culture, regardless of East or West. This monster, which can be called a typical cliché of fantasy, was also found in Arcadia.
[Two huge horns. And slit eyes like reptiles. Its gigantic body and wings spanning tens of hundreds of meters are so intimidating that any strong monster feels instinctive fear. Also…]
Contents about dragons that can be easily found in the history books that Jaeyoung read in the beginner village. Of course, most of them were full of clichéd stories that could only be read in mass-produced fantasy. About how terrifying they look, how filthy strong, and how bizarre they are. However, despite being such a clichéd dragon, Arcadia’s unique and differentiated setting also certainly existed.
That’s an incredibly strong setup.
that’s nasty too.
And Tan and El weren’t very helpful in finding those lizard children.
“Is this the home of the lizards? I don’t know about that either?”
“We don’t know any detailed information about the dragon. Information about them with a special mission is not allowed to us either.”
Even if they were willing to pay for the probability, the archangel and the demon king shook their heads as if it was difficult. Seeing the two of them, Jaeyoung licked his lips in regret.
‘Hey….. I don’t intend to make it easy to find, is this?’
I don’t know if it’s a game company’s trick or if it’s the original setting, but it’s impossible to trick using probability. So Jaeyoung had no choice but to find information about them in a different way.
“No, even if there is no information, how come there are only useless things like this?”
Arpendia is where all the information about Arcadia is gathered.
Although video content was very popular and was the main thing, a lot of information was also being actively uploaded to places dealing with text content such as strategy bulletin boards, recruitment/job bulletin boards, and free bulletin boards.
-Are there any jobs that command dragons?
-I want to become a dragon apprentice.
-How rich is the dragon?
-Dragon molting I want to peel.
However, even in such Arpandia, there is no useful information, just all sorts of useless personal delusions and tens of thousands of crap posts. Seeing this, Jaeyoung let out a deep sigh and frowned.
“Ah, isn’t it a complete difficulty to find?”
Jae-young rummaged through a pile of rubbish for a long time in a furious search. Still, after all that effort, I was able to find a good piece of information.
– Interesting world view of Arcadia.
A post title that doesn’t seem to have anything to do with dragons.
However, Jaeyoung, who found it strange to be included in the search criteria that he had already narrowed down several times, read the post and opened his mouth at the enormous amount.
“Wow….. What kind of sincerity is this in one post?”
Just looking at it, it’s a situation where you’ll press back right away because of the huge amount and dirty readability. However, with narrow eyes, Jaeyoung began to read the brick-like writings one by one.
“Dragon…. Dragon…. Dragon…”
A dragon that is mentioned here and there in the post as if it were copied from the history book in the game. But most of them were just stories that Jaeyoung already knew. After searching for a long time, he was able to find something he didn’t know.
[The myth that dragons are greedy and stock up all sorts of precious treasures in their dens is true. Historically, 80% of the gold mined so far in Arcadia is an enormous amount beyond imagination, so it is not strange to say that they own it. Also…]
The part that is full of explanations about the dragon’s abnormal greed and their transcendent financial power. Among those stories, there was one part that caught Jaeyoung’s eyes.
[Curiosity and possessive desire for rare things that he did not have were so intense that he often robbed the treasures of other races, including humans. In the past, there are countless empires and kingdoms that have perished without giving away their treasures in spite of their threats, so please quickly give up what they ask for and save your life.
] .?”
There is nothing in this world that I cannot have.
If you don’t have it, I’d rather break it.
Give it to me when I say nice things.
Of course, beings who had the mission of saving Arcadia in various crises and took heroic steps in many big events, including the Great War of the Holy Spirit in the past. However, at the same time, at the same time, there were many people who committed all sorts of corrupt things on a continental scale, so the evaluation of dragons was not so good.
Guys you shouldn’t get involved with.
The guys who have to give anything.
Babies who will live forever with their parents.
If you do it wrong, the whole country will disgrace, so you have to be careful not to touch the plant and you have to lie down unconditionally. It’s truly untouchable. While reading their characteristics, Jaeyoung came up with an idea that passed by.
“uh….? Wait a minute…”
The thing the dragon didn’t have.
No, not exactly stuff they don’t seem to have.
That’s exactly what happened to Jaeyoung.
* * *
“Hmmmm…..”
The time when Jaeyoung closed the connection.
In the meantime, Tan, whose name is the Great Demon King, used that time efficiently.
The work in the Demon Realm, which is basically what you have to do as a demon king, and the traffic control of the people under you who are fighting each other bloodily because they are fighting for rank every time. And now, even the knowledge training for cute novice devils like green sprouts that have started running.
“Certainly… it has increased.”
After finishing the channeling with the Demon World, Tan muttered with a pleasant smile. El, who was sitting on the other side of his muttering, asked if he couldn’t hold back his curiosity.
“What increases?”
To that question, Tan answered with a proud face as if he was proud.
“What is it? It is probable.”
Demon world and demons… and the amount of probability granted to Tan is not absolute. The amount used to vary depending on how much they twisted the cause and effect of this Arcadia and how much the continent was filled with evil that suited their mission. This was the reason why Tan and other demons were struggling day and night against human souls.
“Isn’t it obvious? It’s been a while since I’ve had this, but if the probability doesn’t increase, that’s weird.”
The number of people who sold their souls through contracts with the devil, such as black magicians and dark knights, did not increase. It’s just that the energy of evil has become a little more full due to the countless destruction and confusion that occurred in the large-scale continental invasion. However, Tan didn’t care about L’s bruises and still responded with a smile.
“Whatever the reason, it’s true that it’s increased from before.”
Tan, who had a hard time blowing farts at the owner every time, tearing out the odds. As a result, the fact that the entire continent was filled with an overall evil energy began to make fun of L while looking at L with a scornful face.
“Did I tell you? Are our masters evil too? You foresee all these situations and act.”
The owner always worked for evil, except when he fell for El’s trick while he was away and smashed the precious god of the demon world to eat a huge candy. Tan could never understand why El was not evil, as he always inspired Tan to rediscover what true evil was.
But at Tan’s words, L stared into his eyes and asked.
“You… you really don’t know?”
“Eh? what….?”
“Do you think only you have increased the probability?”
El asks a subtle question. At her words, Tan asked with a puzzled look.
“What the hell is that…?”
Then, as if noticing something, he opened his eyes and shouted.
“Could it be that you chicken wings…?”
L didn’t respond to that and just smiled with a relaxed smile. She didn’t answer Tan’s question and just started talking in a low voice.
“It is true that the Shouen Empire suffered irreparable damage due to this continental invasion, the peaceful residents lost their lives, and countless people shed blood due to magic close to disaster.”
Truly shit.
The Black Pirates crossed not only one continent but also other continents to fight without asking. Obviously, the confusion and damage caused by them was so enormous that it was safe to say that they were rare villains.
“But…”
But were these acts purely evil?
“The criminal, the slave, the tramp, the fugitive, the beggar. For various reasons, those who were despised and stigmatized as human beings who were less than bugs… They found another continent that no one else had found with their own strength, and proudly occupied the territory of a mighty empire to establish their own state. Was it really evil to build the ?”
oppression and exploitation.
contempt and loathing.
prejudice and discrimination.
In this world where everything is determined by status and obstacles are rampant, those who broke the thick and powerful chains and won freedom with their own strength. Those who accepted anyone without discrimination and proved this to the whole continent by shining brightly as a symbol of freedom and hope for all oppressed people.
Although even that method could not be called good, El could be sure.
It means that the road that the Caribbean and the Black Pirates are looking at is a path of justice with all kinds of thorny roads and a path that corresponds to the value of being extremely good.
“It may not be as much as you, but we have grown too. And… it will continue to increase in the future.”
I don’t know if the Caribbean will continue to walk the rugged road pursued by Heaven, or if it will eventually deteriorate and decline again in the flow of time, but El intends to keep watching. Whether they will continue to make wise choices according to the best they have done.
“What is he saying now….?”
Tan grumbles as if he doesn’t understand her words. Glancing at him as if he was pathetic, L gave him a face.
“What I mean is that our two contractors are not necessarily evil. Of course, it’s not unconditionally good… Hmm… If I had to say it, I’d just enjoy causing chaos…?”
“what….?”
chaos.
neutrality.
It’s neither good nor evil, it’s just the type that moves as it pleases. So far, based on what L has judged from going around together, Jaeyoung is a dog My Way owner who just does what he wants to do. At El’s words, Tan asked back as if he was absurd.
“What kind of perverted person likes to do that?”
Priest is a bad guy.
Black Mage is a good guy.
Ordinary human beings are the ones who should go into business.
Tan’s head, which sees humans in three ways, did not understand her words well. However, at Tan’s question, L also held back his words because he was a person Jae-young had never experienced before.
“So it is unique. Well… it could be the characteristics of an adventurer.”
Immortal beings… No, beings whose souls do not belong to either the heavens or the demon world, to be precise, adventurers. Their behavior was completely unpredictable, so L secretly kept an eye on Jaeyoung and other adventurers.
To prepare for choosing the best in the flow of a huge narrative that may happen in the future.
Whoops.
And at that moment, Jae-young appears without warning. Seeing him like that, Tan flapped his wings and said happily.
“Oh master. I’m here?”
Tan speaks first with a pleasant face, probably because the probability that came to him has increased. But he asked Tan right away.
“Hey Tan. Can you lend me one thing?”
“Eh? what stuff?”
“Those broken pieces of the Deathbringer. do you still have that? I’ll write it down for a second.”
Jae-young, who is Tan’s wrath and utters words that should never be mentioned in front of him. I flinched the moment I got on his horse, and then asked with a very defensive and wary face.
“…Where else should I write that…?”
And to that, Jaeyoung responded shamelessly.
“I’ll take it and sell it.”
“…..”
Jaeyoung holds out her hand as if to exchange some scrap metal candy. Tan looked down at his hand and was silent for a while. What was he thinking with an indescribable expression on his face, he opened his mouth for the first time in a long time and shouted.
“Hey, this XXX!”
Seeing him like that, L smiled a little and was convinced.
It is said that there has never been a being who fulfills justice as thoroughly as this man and feeds the devil.
