149 – Story after EP.29.5
In the end, Agera left us.
The star that lived with the kingdom of Rasvir, which had a long history, was lost.
The death of the Guardian Dragon, which made all the people mourn and mourn.
Only the abominable King Mordos was given a funeral without shedding a tear.
The dirty bastard who poisoned Agera-sama…….
I wanted to jump at him right away and tear him to death, but I had to hold back.
Because I couldn’t waste the path Agera-sama gave her life for.
I am just doing my duty no matter what.
Because that is the path for Rasvir and the next Guardian Dragon, Prisia….
Finally, the evil Mordos revealed his ambition.
Has been handing over reconnaissance missions to the outside world to our knights.
Modos was extremely eager to advance into the outside world, even confronting Miss Freesia about the need to create a space.
Wouldn’t it be possible to prevent the danger if the king, who was determined to put the kingdom in danger, was killed here and now?
I’ve thought about this thousands of times, but in the end I couldn’t put it into action.
It was said that even if the situation was prevented by killing the king, a bigger disaster would come later.
It’s complicated. Even if I know the inside story, there is nothing I can do right now…….
How did Agera-sama give me such a difficult ordeal?
I don’t know. Still, there must be a reason why Agera-sama gave me this ordeal.
If you believe in Agera-sama and act, the day will come when you will reach his will.
So I think I should skip the reconnaissance mission even if I give the reason that I’m not feeling well.
A week has already passed since I left the scouting party.
The scuffle between Lady Prisia and King Modos was still going on.
However, due to the presence or absence of a scouting party outside, Miss Frisia could not go out strong.
If you do, the scouting party will be left behind in the outside world.
Cunning Mordos, he may have dispatched a patrol outside with this in mind.
They have to come back as soon as possible…….
May they have peace on their journey.
As Agera-sama said, the end is slowly approaching us.
In just one moment, the biggest crisis came to Rasvir Kingdom.
On a night that should have been quiet, people’s screams and groans did not stop, and sometimes a groan was heard.
A huge fire broke out in the capital and turned it into a field of chaos, and chaos also reached the capital.
The cause of the commotion is the sick who recently showed signs of abnormality.
It is said that the sick, who were thought to have stopped breathing and died, became strangely healthy and started attacking people at the same time.
At first, I honestly couldn’t believe it.
How can a person who has died from a disease come back to life and even become healthy and attack people?
I thought so, but the existence that tried to destroy the kingdom was not so easygoing.
In fact, the sick who came to the castle were alive and even the soldiers attacked.
It was my mistake. I never meant to belittle you… !
I thought that the epidemic that was lingering throughout the kingdom might destroy it, but I never imagined that it would be a disease that manipulated the sick to attack people.
But it was already too late, and I finally became convinced that the kingdom was on the road to destruction.
All that remains is to endure as much as possible until the promised day arrives….
I managed to somehow protect the castle.
However, the royal capital had already been burned and turned into ruins, and it became a place full of sick people who came back to life.
And the sick in the royal capital kept pouring into the castle, and each time the knights and I had to deal with the sick by killing them.
Even once close acquaintances with their own hands….
Anyway, we had been holding a sit-in near the castle for several days, but the disease spread inside the castle as well.
In the end, everyone gets sick and you don’t know when to die or turn into a monster.
Worst of all, everyone went to King Mordos, but he seemed to have disappeared somewhere.
Cunning bastard until the end.
But it was rather good.
Thinking that now is an opportunity without King Modos, I gathered the still unchanged soldiers and knights in one place and told them all the conversations Agera-sama had before passing away.
Despair was confirmed that the kingdom of Rasvir could not avoid destruction, and at the same time gave them new hope.
Someday, a dragon knight like Romulus will appear in this land and raise Rasvir together with the next guardian dragon, Prisia…….
I appealed to all the knights and soldiers as best I could, and finally, I took out the knight commander’s amulet from my chest and shouted for everyone to hear.
“When the Dragon Knight comes face to face, I intend to hand over the fate of Rasvir to him with this amulet! He intends to die nobly with all his hopes in him! So! If you are also citizens of Rasvir who were born in this land! Dedicate your noble lives to the dragon knight who wears this amulet… !! For Rasvir!!”
My heart felt relieved after I spit out the words I had stored deep inside my heart.
Although not everyone agreed with what I said.
There were also some people who didn’t like it.
However, most of the knights and soldiers agreed with me.
The proud people of Rasvir.
With them, I thought it was really good that I was born in Rasbir.
Suddenly, the limit came.
The endless pain is coming from inside the body, and the senses are gradually getting dull.
All the soldiers and knights around me had already become sick, and I was the only one who survived.
An amulet containing the power of Agera-sama, albeit weakly.
Perhaps this must have been protecting me all this while.
However, its effect is now reaching its end.
I may soon become sick and lose my ego, just like everyone else has changed.
Nevertheless, I will not give up yet.
The amulet and my teachings that Agera-sama asked me to pass on to the dragon knight.
But I don’t know what to teach the next dragon knight.
Because the only thing I know best is to wield a sword.
So I swing my sword again and again until death strikes me.
With one determination to burn with a sword until the end of life….
And so that everyone’s will can be properly delivered to the Dragon Knight…….
It hurts and it’s hard, but if these small actions of mine help the dragon knight… Enough… under… all….
“The dragon knight was you, not me. Knight Commander Melvin.”
After reading the last journal he left behind, I covered the journal and approached his chilled corpse.
A pure and upright knight who believed in the guardian dragon until the end and carried on Agera’s will to the end.
Now that all the fighting is over, he’s going to come back to life, but that doesn’t mean everything is gone.
In the present, when Lesshef invaded, the leader of the Knights Melvin showed a heroic appearance.
A great article that absolutely must be respected.
I knelt in front of the hero’s corpse and placed Agera’s scales on his chest along with the journal.
To inform everyone in the world.
The true dragon knight was here…….
***
5 Days have passed since I returned home.
I managed to get to the dragon’s tomb.
Until then, Miho had been madly in love with her, and she even had reunion s*x with her companions who came late and ended up getting even more settled.
It was nice to meet you after a long time, but I wondered if it was too much to be a little serious that we had a mad marriage party for 5 days.
Anyway, I managed to escape and was heading to the dragon’s grave with Tia.
“Yongyong, is he here?”
“Well….”
Before we left Rasbir, we informed Freesia that there is a dragon’s tomb.
Then, since we are far away, I suggested that we meet again here someday, but we did not set a specific reservation date.
Still, Yata said that he roughly predicted the date and gave Freesia the date to meet him, but I wonder if he will be at the Dragon’s Grave…… I do not know.
The fog that appeared suddenly enveloped the entire body.
Proof that you have entered the road to the dragon’s grave.
As you slowly move along the familiar foggy road, at some point, the fog slowly clears.
When the fog clears completely, the entrance to the dragon’s tomb is revealed, and the dragon tombkeeper, Leusis, comes out to greet Tia.
But this time someone other than Leusis was preparing to greet us….
“Yong Yong-ah!”
“Oh! Why did you come so late… Go, why is the infected here?!”
“It’s me… you… shipowner….”
“What, what?! What happened?”
The reason why Freesia is as surprised as now.
Perhaps it is because of the changes in my body that occurred while being fertilized for 5 days.
“What the hell happened, are you more drawn out than when you fought Lesshef? Have you ever been attacked by a Shinsoo where you live?”
“No, that is….”
Thinking about it, my body became like this because of my companions, so she wasn’t wrong.
The divine beasts only attacked the individual ‘me’, not the city…….
“Sorry, I can’t say it because it’s an unspeakable personal situation. Instead, I’ll just let you know it’s not the big deal you’re thinking of.”
“Well, if you say so….”
This happened to me because someone else had been seduced by a pet for 5 days! It wasn’t easy to say.
The reaction that will come back is roughly predictable and not very good, so it’s better to just let it go.
“More than that, let’s go slowly. I know roughly where it is.”
“Ah, yes….”
The purpose of informing Freesia of the dragon’s grave and bringing her here is simple.
To show the grave of her mother, Agera.
It’s a pity that her daughter doesn’t even know where her mother’s body is buried.
It would have been nice if I could have had a conversation with my mother’s spirit… Unfortunately, I couldn’t hope for that.
According to the rules in Dragon’s Tomb, you can only talk to the dead if you are not a blood relative.
In other words, Freesia cannot talk to or see Agera, nor can she face Tia or her real parents, who may be somewhere in this tomb.
What a pity.
However, Freesia appealed that she was okay, and Tia clung to my body and rubbed her face as if she didn’t mind since I was there.
They are unique and cute in many ways.
“Here.”
Even if we can’t communicate according to the rules, I think it’s better to visit the grave, so I brought Freesia to the tombstone where Agera is buried.
After checking Agera’s name written on her tombstone, Freesia smiled bitterly and gently hugged her tombstone.
For Freesia, she is the only family member and her beloved blood relative.
When she learned that her one and only flesh and blood had sacrificed herself for her sake, Freesia naturally felt pain in her heart.
There is a quiet atmosphere that won’t be strange even if you shed tears right away.
I had no choice but to leave her seat for a while so that she could cry a little more comfortably….
Before that, Freesia got up from her seat and came towards me.
“The Holy Sepulchre is over.”
“Huh? Gwa, are you okay? Even if it ends so quickly? Now, it doesn’t matter if she breaks down and cries… ?”
“Have you ever cried for her mother before? She doesn’t have to come all this way and cry again. Besides, I am no longer the dragon that has to lean on her mother.”
“I see….”
“Yes! So, my grave ends here! You two should have a talk with your mom, right? Then I’ll move out of the way so I won’t be disturbed!”
As if she wasn’t really sad, Freesia, who smiled confidently, went off somewhere like that.
It’s only been 5 days since we broke up, but I feel like I’ve matured a lot during that time.
“You’ve grown up a lot, our Freesia….”
“Ah.”
As Freesia disappears from sight, a clear voice comes from behind her.
It was Agera, the biggest victim in this case and the client I had been asking for.
“It’s really sad that I can’t talk to my grown daughter.”
“It’s okay. The fact that her daughter has grown up makes her more than happy!”
Just as Freesia has a special regard for Agera, Agera also values Freesia.
A beautiful family love. It makes me happy whenever I see it.
“I even watched her daughter grow up in real time.”
“What? How… ?”
“I kept looking through the scales I gave to the ship owner. Not only the image of her daughter, but also the image of the ship owner who was on a painful journey….”
“I see….”
A miserable and bleak trip for a month.
I thought I was alone, but in fact, it seems that Agera was always with me.
“I am so sorry! My unreasonable request made me go through a difficult experience!”
Agera’s sincere attitude of apologizing even while bowing her head.
I accepted her apology by holding her head up with a smile.
“It’s okay. Although it was definitely difficult, it was all a meaningful experience for me.”
“But… !”
“Isn’t that a request you accepted without paying in the first place? Just give me a reward, and that’s it.”
“…… Okay, then, Lord, do you have any wishes from me? I promise to do anything I can!”
When I first brought up the topic of compensation, what I thought of was mother-daughter rice bowls.
However, now that I have the extreme sage time when I am organized by my companions for 5 days, that option has naturally been erased from my mind.
No, maybe that option was gone from the first time I met Freesia.
Anyway, I can’t think of anything to receive as compensation.
The recommended options here didn’t seem too bad either.
“Hey, I can’t think of anything in particular, but are there any good ones out of the ones you’re thinking of?”
“Hmm, then….”
Aguera is seriously thinking about my recommendation request.
“First of all, our Frisia has already been captured, so it has become meaningless…. As expected, the scales containing my power are the best… ? Hmm…….”
Muttering to myself, I started looking for a decent pay.
It seems that there was some misunderstanding among them, but I tried to pass it off in one ear.
“Ah! There was a reward that was just right for the ship owner!”
“What is it?”
“This is it!”
A single hard scale that rests on my palm.
However, the scales this time look quite different from the ones I received before.
The color was a bit darker than the light blue scales, and even the shape was slightly different.
“What is this?”
“This is my backwater! Scales, one of the common weaknesses dragons have!”
“So why did you hand this to me… ?”
“This one and only reverse is the scale that is fundamentally connected to my ability. If you have this, the ship lord can use even a little bit of my ability!”
“Umm, can you elaborate on the performance?”
“If you have a simple skill, you can create a private space for the ship owner….”
“Thank you! Thank you!!”
Finally, I have found the answer to get out of this hell.
“hahahaha!”
