Chapter 456 The One Who Asks to Stop and The
One Who Blocks (7) The light dragon, Declen, rises as a cataclysm bringing an end to the stage of the Central Continent.
In order to achieve the madness he had been obsessed with for an eternity of time, he was only given the role of slaughtering countless people and destroying the brilliant civilization of this world.
An executioner of destruction who will completely annihilate the dragon, the guardian of Arcadia, and destroy everything around him until the end of his life.
That was his role in the scenario of this doomsday project.
But.....
[Thank you.]
The existence of Jaeyoung, who is the remnant of Asura and knows the truth of this world.
Although the resolution is different, it is clearly his promise to achieve what he hopes for and longs for.
Awakening the disaster that had gone mad in despair and anger, it made unexpected and sudden actions.
[warning. Critical variable detected.]
NPC Declen, a special being who has been lifted from the mandatory restrictions and defenses that apply to everyone, and who has been endowed with the highest level of self-consciousness and initiative.
That's why, at the last moment of his life, he created a huge variable that even Alice didn't expect.
His last legacy, created by creating a new algorithm on his own that was neither intentional nor concocted. And Jaeyoung, who was watching it, as well as Tan and El, the rulers of the underworld and heaven, were also making indescribable expressions.
“Wow... this... really... isn’t it a joke?”
“I don't know if it's because it's an existence that has lived through eternity, but... It's an amazing thing.”
“The world is said to be something to live for a long time and see, but it seems that people see a lot of really strange things in their later years.”
The two of them are muttering while staring at the object in Jaeyoung's hand as if it is very strange. They tried not to show it for a while, but the greed and possessiveness felt in Tan and L's eyes was so intense that they couldn't hide it even if they tried hard.
[Eternal Heart - ???]
The heart of a dragon that has lived through endless time since the beginning of time. Beyond the limit of lifespan, it completely transcended its status in the mana accumulated in the infinite flow of time. There is only one, and it is an object beyond common sense that cannot be found even in mythology that will never exist again. It is a valuable magical material that anyone would pay any price to obtain.
-????
-????
-????
It is a super-class material with strong power and high prestige that can be said to be absolutely necessary to make a weapon containing the power of a god. It turns ordinary people into heroes with genius talents just by eating it, and any artifact works permanently. A permanent engine with tremendous output and mana that makes it possible to
dragon heart.
In particular, the heart of an ancient dragon level or higher in intact condition is so rare that even transcendent deities such as Tan and El were treated as precious enough to reveal their greed, but Declen's legacy in Jae-young's hands is even compared to those things. It was so different that it couldn't be done.
Woo woo woo woo.
Items outside of the standard for which the grade itself is not determined.
The dense mana that spreads softly within it and the infinite mana sleeping in its heart were stimulating El and Tan... and Goldrian's instincts like crazy.
‘Want.'
‘With that alone... we'll be able to completely seize the initiative in Arcadia.'
‘I can't believe it..... How can Dragon Heart go like that...'
The appearance of an object with tremendous potential to completely overturn the power structure of Arcadia. If Jaeyoung had been an ordinary human a little longer, he might have stabbed him in the back of the head.
However, Jaeyoung's reaction, holding the infinite essence of mana in his hand, was bland.
“Hmm... It must be useful.”
Jaeyoung treats japtem and throws it into the inventory.
Tan and El were surprised by his reaction and made all sorts of fuss.
“Hey, master. What do you mean by looking at such a valuable treasure?”
“It's not good enough. Anyone would go to war to get one of them?”
“What are you overdoing? It’s just a good quality dragon heart.”
Kervenian's Heart or Declen's Heart.
It's just a material item that has no use for itself anyway.
That's why Jaeyoung wasn't particularly impressed, but Tan and L spoke more seriously than ever.
“Master, the mana in his heart... it’s different from other lizards.”
“What is different?”
“I'll have to check more on the exact thing, but... there's no limit to magic power. I'm not joking or exaggerating... I think it literally has infinite power.”
infinite.
Infinite.
Not common rhetoric or exaggeration, but infinite mana with no end.
Contrary to expressing the mana contained in the heart of an ancient dragon as infinite, Declen's heart, which had truly infinite mana, was theoretically an object that could make everything impossible possible.
“If you have that, you can use the 9th circle magic just like the 1st circle. It means that it can handle any powerful output and any enormous mana.”
“that's right. Besides, if you use that heart to create a divine instrument, there probably won't be any problems even if you activate the power dozens or hundreds of times. Do you know how ridiculous that situation is?”
Tan and El believe that they will be able to indiscriminately use the catastrophic transcendental magic that completely destroys a continent, and the power that is no different from that of a god possessing divine powers without any restrictions. And at that, Jaeyoung nodded his head as if he wasn't interested.
“Whatever it is, it's just a really good ingredient, right? I'll refer to it, so stop worrying about it for now. Right now, that doesn't matter.”
The two of them are not interested in chanting and staring at the ashes. However, the most urgent thing for Jaeyoung right now was to deal with the three remaining disasters, so he turned his head to Goldrian, who was stuck in the corner, blankly.
“Would you like to talk to me instead of standing still with such a bewildered face?”
[.....]
Uhhhhh.
When asked to have a conversation, Goldrian's whole body shone with a pure white glow. And soon, a pale golden handsome man appeared in front of Jaeyoung.
“Who are you....”
Declen, who spewed hatred for everyone except himself. I don't know what the reason is, but the fact that he suddenly completely gave up his heart, which was no different from everything, at the moment of facing his end was so confusing.
“Why did that light dragon give you a heart? What did you talk about...”
The story we shared openly and proudly in front of him, as well as Tan and L.
But no one was really aware of the story.
Even the absolutes of this world with transcendental power and divinity were mere characters and constituents who were assigned their own roles in this world of illusions... so they couldn't escape the limits.
“It’s a story you don’t need to know. It's a story that's not nutritious and doesn't do anything good for you to know.” “...?”
Goldrian looked at Jaeyoung muttering softly with a bitter expression as if he couldn't understand it. However, as if he did not like the awkward airflow, he shook his head slightly from side to side and thanked him.
“First of all.... Whatever it is, I have to say thank you first. Declen, the scourge of all dragons and the destroying dragon that will destroy this world. As the head of a noble and great clan, I express my heartfelt gratitude to you for killing him on behalf of us, the guardians of Arcadia.”
Originally, it was a noble mission and mission that they would have had to step out and carry out. However, on the contrary, since he was in danger of being brutally beaten by him and even forcibly ripping out his heart, Goldrian muttered within a moment with a slightly embarrassed look on his face.
“Including the one that saved my life...”
A race of dragons known for being proud and arrogant.
It was an unprecedented feat for the Lord, who was known to be the best among them, to express his gratitude to a mere human.
If he had been at the level of a normal warrior, he would have made all kinds of fuss about his family's glory and the continent's glory, but to Jae-young, his words were just words of mouth.
“With your bare mouth?”
“...?”
“Sure~ I’m in a situation where you and all the other dragons have been saved from this huge crisis, aren’t you trying to say thank you so much here?”
A human with an expression that is not at all satisfied with his gratitude. Goldrian, taken aback by the questioning tone of saying that he had to give something up, froze in a daze as if the accident had stopped for a moment.
“To be honest... Do you know how much of a probability I wasted trying to save you? Just because I activated the right to command once, it was reduced to a level that sounded almost a billion. It's worth doing just that one thing, but honestly, trying to get over it by just saying thank you so much... isn't it a bit too conscienceless?”
Jae-Young's quiet tone calls for a reward while talking about conscience. Then, he glanced at the Archangel and the Demon King who were watching the situation from the side, and as if they had waited, they took his side and started attacking Goldrian.
“Didn’t you know the owner? Originally, lizards are selfish, so I don’t care about that.”
“A fair price comes with a fair price. Even from my point of view, I think we should receive reasonable compensation according to our help.”
A joint attack by the Archangel and the Demon King.
It was a bizarre situation that he couldn't understand why the two got along so well, but Goldrian sighed with a tired face and said.
“Okay, human. what is your wish Let me listen to anything.”
“really?”
“But it has to be something I can do. You know I shouldn't be asking for something outrageous like giving up my heart, right?”
Goldrian to say whatever you want. And at that, Jaeyoung smiled and asked.
“The disaster that is spreading across Arcadia right now... you know that this isn’t the only one, right?”
“...Why are you asking that?”
“In my heart, I want to take care of everything myself. But maybe you already expected that, and those damn bastards have already written their numbers, so you can't intervene?”
A proviso that only one catastrophe can intervene.
Because of that, Jaeyoung was in a situation where an abnormal condition was imposed.
[Caught in the status abnormal ‘resting warrior'.]
[All attack judgments are applied as ‘invincible' limited to other disasters.] A
situation where you can't directly deal with the disaster in any way.
Therefore, Jaeyoung looked at Goldrian in front of him with a strangely evil smile in order to deal with other disasters in a ‘peaceful' way as in the past.
“You also intervened to catch Declen, so you're probably in the same situation as me...but aren't the others?”
“You human beings...?”
Goldrian, who roughly guessed Jaeyoung's intentions.
Looking at his wide, golden eyes, Jaeyoung said.
“Activate the command authority you have as a Lord. Whether it's sleeping in their lair or a fledgling lizard that's just out of hatchling season, I'm going to scrape together all the guys I can and get them involved in this war somehow.”
A dragon drowning in infinite selfishness.
Those who invade their territory or never step into a situation where they have to suffer loss or sacrifice unless it is unavoidable. And Jaeyoung was demanding Goldrian, who had the right to command the mission to force them.
“Everyone come out and do everything in your power to prevent this calamity.”
“That is my wish.”
The guardian of Arcadia and the world's most powerful dragon.
It is to fulfill the original mission assigned to them.
