Episode 64

what is a dragon

The pinnacle of all things in this world and the crystallization of magical power that often appears in mythology.

A single breath dyes the earth red, and humans are killed in droves with just a wave of their hands.

A monster dragon that can be called a cataclysm.

Then just how strong is this dragon?

Depending on the medium in which the dragon appears, the answer will vary greatly.

There are dragons that are stumped by humans, dragons that are more suitable for being called lizards than dragons, and giant monsters that show off their despair and fear just by existing.

And Hellion, the only dragon in the novel ‘Highlander’.

Even if you don’t have to say anything, you will know that he belongs to the latter.

Although it was beaten by humans and met its end, even that end was fierce and terrifying.

“Wow… crazy.”

I was speechless at the ashes spreading before my eyes.

The Asura Ogre, who had been fine until a few seconds ago, had been melted into ashes by the terrible flame.

Just one gesture.

The asura ogre died without much resistance to the magnificent flame that soared from the grip of the hellion.

‘Ma Seong-yong must be embarrassed.’

In the original story, the Asura Ogre was killed by Ma Seong-yong.

At that time, Ma Seong-yong held the ogre’s head and said something.

It was an amazing day to day and never will be. I think I was talking about something like that.

‘I’ll lose face with that man.’

For some, it was a diary that risked their lives, and for others, it was just entertainment.

I looked away from the ashes and turned aside.

“Reunion after 10 years…”

Receiving my gaze, Hellion lowered his head and said.

“Lord of Paradise… How have you been?”

“Huh? Uh uh.”

Her attitude changed drastically.

It seemed to want something from me.

‘Would you like me to praise you for this?’

Don’t children do that once in a while?

When I have a toy I want to have, I act a lot to impress my parents.

Hellion’s behavior was just right.

He had his knees bent and his head bowed with utmost courtesy.

‘There’s nothing to lose by praising it.’

I put my hand on her black hair.

Then, a brief convulsion occurred throughout Hellion’s body.

Not paying attention to him, I continued stroking his hair.

“Paradise Lord…?”

“Nice job. After all, I can’t do without you.”

“Well, what are you talking about all of a sudden…”

“Just. Thank you. You know how I feel, right?”

“…….”

You are very calm today

The guy who used to scream every day was no different from a modest girl now.

Hellion wearing the mask that didn’t suit him was awkward, but his admiration was greater.

‘But how did he know I was in an emergency?’

Well. It’s a dragon, so it could be.

I am convinced of the answer given by myself.

However, there was one more unanswered question.

“What are those black people just now?”

“…!”

“Do you hang out with bad guys like that?”

“Oh no! You misunderstood!”

Make sure to read from noble mtl . com

Get it wrong My back is a little burnt.

I let out a voice filled with desperation.

“Don’t get close to dogs. Are you saying this because you’re worried?”

“Ha, but in order to accomplish the cause of the Lord of Paradise-“

“Regardless of what it is, just don’t do it if you’re told not to do it. You’re still young so you don’t know much about it, but in that case, just trust me and follow my words.”

Hellion grumbled slightly as if he was unfair.

“For the Lord of Paradise… I… for my brother…”

It’s been a long time since I’ve been in the middle of a long time.

Have you been brainwashed by the paradise bastards?

‘Oh no way.’

Paradise, of course, is a strong group, but compared to Hellion, it is far from lacking.

Then why does Hellion hang out with the paradise guys?

‘I got bullied.’

Hellion, ignorant of the world, must have been fooled by their words.

Well, Paradise is a group like a pseudo-religion.

A pseudo-religion that increases its adherents with the catchphrase of ‘Know the Tao’.

Hellion seemed to have been caught in the trap.

Aw, poor fellow.

“Tsk. What would you do without me?”

“I-I mean.”

“Anyway, cut ties with them from now on. I won’t say it twice.”

Hellion gave a gloomy expression, as if he was unwilling to do something.

Then, soon, the boy’s straight head nodded.

“… All right.”

“I’m glad. Don’t blame me too much.”

“Never!”

“Right? Thank you for understanding my heart.”

I patted him on the shoulder as a sign of admiration.

It’s been about 3 minutes since then.

“Instructor!”

Suddenly, I heard Lee Dae-shik’s voice calling me.

I immediately hid the Hellion behind me.

“Hey, hey, come back quickly!”

“Go back… to where…?”

“Wherever it is, of course it’s home. Hurry and go! I’m going to get caught like this.”

“……Are we breaking up again?”

“What are you breaking up with? I’ll see you later.”

At my words, Hellion’s eyes flashed.

She moved her quivering lips.

“Is that true?”

“Of course. Why? You’re not going to abandon me and go to those paradise guys?”

“Oh no!”

Lee Dae-shik and his companions were rushing towards them.

The distance narrows little by little, if you delay here longer, Hellion’s identity may be discovered.

“Now go. I’m waiting for you at home.”

“Yes! I’ll be waiting for you!”

“Uh. See you in the evening… What the heck, where did he go?”

The guy who was standing behind me just a moment ago had disappeared.

“Instructor Cheon Hae-beom.”

Lee Dae-shik and his companions approached me at some point.

Their eyes turned to me.

“Heh heh. I thought you’d be all right.”

“By the way, Asura, where did that monster go?”

“What is that mark? What happened here?”

The cadets pointed to the ruined Asura and each expressed their doubts.

“It’s Asura.”

“Oh, is it Asura?”

“Yes. I think the word ashes would be more appropriate now.”

Lee Dae-sik and Son Ga-young said in surprise.

“…That’s Asura? Did you pour lava into it?”

“Ha ha ha! It’s the Instructor Hae Beom Cheon!”

“That’s what Teacher Chun really did? Really?”

how to get out of this situation

I nodded despite my pricked conscience.

“He’s not like a poet.”

Then, in an instant, the surroundings were enveloped in silence.

What broke the silence was a message from the system, not from anyone else.

[I risked my life to save the cadets!]

[Cadets admire your courage!]

[2,000G will be paid as compensation.]

“Master?”

A bewildered voice came from behind.

When I turned my head, Han Choa was looking at me with blank eyes.

“How is Master?”

He asks with a dying expression.

As always, I recited solemnly to match the master’s dignity.

“It’s a natural result. Don’t doubt it.”

“As of today, we are disbanding.”

“Yes?”

“Muh, what! A sudden dissolution!”

The subordinates who rush in like a winner and show a negative stance.

Even so, Cheon Ji-hye remained unchanged.

She said the same thing in a determined tone.

“I’ll say it again. Paradise is disbanding as of today.”

The fierce tone of not accepting objections and the voice that showed even a firm conviction made the subordinates open their mouths.

The hall was filled with only groaning.

After such a long silence, a man spoke with difficulty.

“Chief.”

Make sure to read from noble mtl . com

Jinseong Kang, the second shadow of paradise.

He is the first shadow and the closest aide to Cheon Ji-hye, the head of paradise.

“We came all the way here after only seeing one chief.”

Their leader was a woman who could not predict where they would bounce.

But today, that was too much.

Make sure to read from noble mtl . com

Giving up terrorism halfway is not enough, so the group is disbanded.

Kang Jin-seong uttered a voice mixed with annoyance with an unfair heart.

“But… you’re leaving without telling me why? Isn’t that too irresponsible?”

“Well….”

“Are you saying you’re losing the cause?”

The shadows of paradise all had a twisted heroic idea.

Modern heroes are all rogues who only reveal money and fame.

We have to punish them and fix the messed up society.

With the determination to change such a rotten society, they united.

“If the chief leaves, what will we do!”

“…….”

Usually groups are maintained with one leader at the head.

In that respect, Cheon Ji-hye was the right leader and all the shadows of paradise followed her.

But why today? Cheon Ji-hye’s pupils, who were upright without shaking, were somehow weak.

“What are you thinking about? Say something!”

“… for the sake of paradise.”

“Is the action for the sake of paradise a cowardly flight?”

“It’s not an escape. It’s all His will.”

Kang Jin-seong asked with a frown on his face.

“Who are you referring to as He?”

“Give me paradise.”

“Paradise Lord…? Have you met him?”

“Yes.”

The subordinate Chun Ji-hye trusted the most was Kang Jin-seong.

So, Kang Jin-seong heard many miscellaneous stories from Cheon Ji-hye.

Among them, the one who came in the most was the man named ‘Nakwonju’.

The man who became the source of paradise and the driving force behind Cheonjihye was Nakwonju.

I don’t know who it is, I don’t even know the exact name.

Make sure to read from noble mtl . com

Jinseong Kang smiled dejectedly.

“Huh… Who the hell is the Lord of Paradise talking about…”

“If you know, it hurts.”

“…….”

As such, the conversation did not progress.

There was no sign of retracting the statement that the group would be dissolved.

“I’ll let you go.”

“Uh, where?”

Cheon Ji-hye looked at Kang Jin-seong, who was stunned, and said.

“Home… I will go to the house he once shared with me.”

The corner of Cheon Ji-hye’s mouth went up slightly.
