Spirit King (1)
After climbing the steep stone steps and reaching the top of the fortress wall, we were finally able to see the red dragon.
Eshas, shocked by the other person’s confession, asked for a moment, so it was time to take a closer look.
Even compared to Eshas, he has a ferocious and insidious impression with a physique that does not bow down.
Compared to the Magic Eye Dragon Uzat, it looks much more charismatic.
The scales that covered his body were red enough to be clearly recognizable even under the faint moonlight.
In many ways, the face is reminiscent of a wolf.
Medusha, who was observing the ghastly appearance, said, filled with preconceived notions.
“Because it’s a red dragon… it must have an urgent and dirty temper.”
“This guy, judging his personality by the color of his scales is racial discrimination. It’s a pseudo-science that has no basis as much as the blood type personality theory.”
Professor See-through, Ersa, who had arrived a little earlier than us, scolded Medusha.
Then, a strange reaction comes out of Elfriede.
“Yeah? Blood type and personality don’t have anything to do with it?”
“What else is he talking about… Are you really a student at our academy? Be prepared when you’re in the 3rd year.”
The boldness of threatening the successor of Beltern without hesitation.
Considering the status of the opponent, it is reckless not to be brave.
While Elfriede’s shoulders were slightly slumped, Eshas, who barely controlled her heart, started a full-fledged meeting.
She, who had maintained her human form while passing through the gate, returns to the form of a dragon.
Not far from us, in the bastion for command of the defensive battle, the Westwall Marshal was arm in arm with a dragon tooth.
I’m sure I’ll be carrying that heavy thing as I’ve passed my 60th birthday.
Naturally, the thought of killing an innocent knight made me cringe.
Is it because of my mood?
As if it wasn’t my fault, as if it wasn’t my fault, the change-back who glanced at this side while maintaining his posture, shook his head slightly.
If I hadn’t done it, he would have killed the knight.
He responded with a small smile and looked back under the fortress wall, and Eshas was giving off a lot of hatred.
I don’t really like her, but I have to admit that the combination of white scales and moonlight is really cool.
“Bride… what nonsense is that?”
“Don’t hate it already. You’re hurt. I’m an old dragon, you are an old dragon too. Is there a law that says we shouldn’t be paired up?”
A red dragon that coaxes Essha with a very smirk.
It’s an attitude that seems to hold some great weakness.
It felt as if he was speaking to the people behind him, not to Esshas himself.
It wasn’t long before we realized his intentions.
“Recently, I know that the rogues are targeting your kingdom. You may not know the others, but the Night King is a formidable opponent to you… If we work together, we can easily defeat it.”
“Hey, you’re talking like a threat.”
Eshas responds by exposing her small molars.
It seems that Korea seems ridiculous.
Most of these positions were showing sharp hostility to the Red Dragon, who made unreasonable recommendations.
Even though Eshas has done a lot of bad things here and there, he is a guardian dragon that has protected the kingdom for hundreds of years.
It’s not something you can get married to and say it’s right for some bastard Red Dragon.
Besides, the intent of the red dragon’s proposal was clearly visible.
After pretending to cooperate and marrying Esha, he plans to devour the entire kingdom later.
“Master. That bastard, why do you have to make such a proposal…”
“That’s because Essha is so happy.”
“Yeah? Ah…”
Persia, who was growling with claws on her soft front paws, understood later.
In fact, there is not only one Elder Dragon currently active, Eshas.
Right now, if you count the ones who showed up last time, there are four.
Two seasons, excluding the King of the Night and the Red Dragon Jakar himself, who looked different from the others.
There is still a gender issue, but it has no biological meaning when it comes to SS rank.
Even so, there is only one reason why he opted out of all the other dragons and dared to propose to Eshas.
It’s because she looked pretty sassy.
Of course, Eshas’s ability itself is at the top of the list among the Elder Dragons.
If an all-out war is waged immediately, it will be a definite victory, except for the King of the Night.
However, this is a calculation that includes the kingdom owned by Essha.
Eshas’ individual combat power is never on the high side.
‘My lord. If we match Eshas 1-1, the win rate is…’
“Then I fight 100 times and I win 100 times. Even if that guy is a hidden hand, it’s not the kind that can be used alone.”
Even if the Demon King, a summoned beast of the same rank, fights in the worst condition, the win rate is a whopping 30%.
If it’s a one-on-one match, the win rate soars infinitely.
Essha’s strength is not her strength as an individual.
On the contrary, it is incredibly weak for an SS rank.
Not to mention, she devoted almost all of her time and energy to the kingdom of Drakor.
It is natural that they are much weaker than ancient dragons like the Magic Eye Dragon, which have been collecting and researching magic eyes for thousands of years.
It’s an unfair comparison in the first place.
The strength of Eshas is that he reigns at the top of the Millennium Kingdom, Drakor.
It is a number of violence that comes from a vast territory and a large number of people.
While other Wyrms were immersed in developing their magic and abilities, she learned the manners of nobles and nurtured summoners.
If you are attacked by the Red Dragon Jakar at close range, there is no chance of winning.
Persia, who understood my explanation without difficulty, clapped with her front paws and said.
“Aha. You feel like Medysha’s older sister! She’s the weakest among the SS ranks born!”
“Are you really going to die?”
Of course, Jakar wouldn’t have expected that she would accept the proposal without thinking.
Currently, the existence of the Dracor Kingdom is in jeopardy due to the emergence of 4 old dragons.
If Jakar became an ally, it would be very reassuring.
At the very least, it can be reassuring to make it neutral by coaxing it well.
However, our guardian dragon was outspoken, as if he did not want to even imagine such a thing.
It is a reaction that even a subtle freshness can be felt from the reddened face.
“Hell! I’m married to the state!”
“I think you haven’t understood it well yet, is it because you’re not in a situation where you can stand like that?”
Now, Jakar is blatantly intimidating, throwing away even the smallest of his selves.
Eshas, who was shaking with a strong sense of insult, looked at him secretly.
From n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲
Jakar moved his gaze to follow her, narrowed his eyes, and made a voice as if he had been beaten.
It is clear that the old dragon’s eyes pierced my body and found the demon king.
“What, now that I see it, the corner I believe in… Sheesh. Was it like that from the beginning?”
“Just keep your dog barking in moderation. If you’re going to say something like this next time…”
Eshas, who had been spitting out while grinding his teeth, paused for a moment at the whisperings of the warden commander.
After listening to her loyalist’s advice and killing her temper, she begins a more productive conversation.
“If you want me like that, wouldn’t it be right to tell you about your summoner first? How can you believe in a rogue who proposes to you in the first place on a topic that has not gained the least trust?”
“Hmmm…”
The red dragon was confused by Eshas’ rebuke.
The picture is definitely not very good.
If you can tell me who the summoner is who helped him cross the dimension, at least some cooperation might be possible.
But isn’t Jakar just wasting time with a grunt?
It’s not like he’s intentionally taking off the shichimi, it’s a reaction like he doesn’t really know.
Of course, it’s because the summoner did everything he could to hide his identity… but accepting such a questionable summons is not something to be proud of.
Medusha, who stood in front of me as if protecting me, sighed and said.
“Did you come over without checking the summoner properly? He’s a guy with no basics.”
“I wake up a little bit.”
“It’s also called an old dragon…”
From n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲
Jakar, who received criticism from the people of the kingdom, slightly inflated his cheeks and turned around.
It seems that he stopped trying to shoot the breath.
“Cute bastards. Next time I won’t be so kind to you. Please don’t make me beg you to be my bride.”
“Because I have that kind of personality, I couldn’t get married until I was that age.”
Persia hits the bones of Jakar and Eshas at the same time from afar.
It’s good to talk about momentum, etc., but the eyes staring at me are startled, and they dig into my arms.
“This guy, when are you going to start working?”
“Actually, I’m sorry that it hasn’t exploded until now.”
“But aren’t other old dragons like that?”
I heard that in the case of Magic Eye Dragon Uzat, they silently attacked as soon as they were summoned…
It just feels like it’s better than that.
Eventually, when Jakar returned to his dimension, the personnel lined up on the wall sighed in unison.
Although he was a funny guy, his name was an old dragon, so his presence was no joke.
It feels like my shoulders are being crushed just by standing in front of him.
It is definitely different from the S-Rank Jinshin summons that were born, such as Medusha and Laurie.
Eshas, who was trembling as if he had been insulted, climbed the wall in one step and transformed into a humanoid.
Silver hair that diffuses moonlight and drives away the darkness nearby.
It was swaying abundantly and strangely, and it came straight to me.
“Earl Elcloud. I am always grateful for you and your family’s devotion.”
“It was nothing…”
Eshas glanced at Elena in the seat next to him as he greeted him with a cold example.
She then greeted the Marshal Westwall who was approaching from the other side as well.
However, the content is much more rigid than mine.
“Did you reveal the identity of the summoner?”
“We’ve been searching since a while ago. They’re very careful, so it’s going to be difficult, but for now until the morning…”
“Yeah, I’ll do your best.”
Are you sure you’re not suspicious of Westwall?
Maria, who had come to a similar thought with me, clenched her fists.
Byeon-baek himself called the attendant and ordered us to give him a room.
I was about to return to the capital, so I wanted to say no, but…
It seems that the gate for ultra-long-distance transmission will only open tomorrow morning.
This is because Esshas’s henchmen, the Dimensional Guard and Guard, are also mobilized for the search operation.
Esshas himself is also staying here, so it is not a situation where I can dare to speak up.
After arriving at the lord’s castle feeling like I’m being watched for nothing, I quickly moved to the bedroom.
I was very tired of maintaining the tension in front of the two old dragons.
“Master, I’ll protect you, so get a good night’s sleep!”
“I’m fine though…”
Because it was a place with very bad memories, Persia, who took on the role of a watchdog, began to doze off before long.
I dragged the poor-looking guy into the bed, and then I fell in love.
Thanks to the environment similar to usual, I slept surprisingly well and woke up early in the morning.
Of course, of course, the Summoner of the Red Dragon, Jakar, was not caught.
In a way, it is only natural that the Red Dragon himself handled it so cautiously that he did not know the identity of the Summoner.
Only then will the allegations of international students from Albion and Einclad become lighter.
“After all, Albion isn’t the culprit…”
“That’s right. They were enjoying dinner with their master when they were summoned.”
“The Albion side is a gimmick, and the possibility that the other unit is the culprit?”
“This is in the middle of an enemy country… It’s also near the border with strict surveillance. If they could conduct such an operation here without the help of an insider, they would have eaten our country long ago.”
“but.”
When Christine meets Christine in front of the bedroom and responds calmly, Medusha is obedient for some reason.
Even though he said it in the first place, he must have thought that the possibility was low.
When their charges are lifted, I feel even more strange.
Ersa, who was staying in the guest room just like us, walked out with a slightly disheveled look and pointed out the reluctance.
“Then it means that one of the four great families is the culprit… Is this okay? There might be a second great uprising soon.”
“Chief, Professor?”
Maria is frightened by her overly candid and bold words.
But Ersa is right.
A secret operation that summons an old dragon-class summoned beast.
Few families can do such a thing on the border.
Besides, simply summoning the old dragons is nothing.
While the kingdom is infested with chaos, a power that can take advantage of additional hits.
As Ersa said, only the four families are capable of committing a rebellion-level incident.
But to say such a fact where the heirs of three of the four great families gather… even in the heart of Westwall.
Now that I see, Ersa is no less strong-minded than Persia.
Without even paying attention to our gaze, she staggered towards the dining room, arranging the mesh that had been pushed into her clothes.
Persia, who had been rubbing her eyes hard with her front paws, sighed slightly as she looked at her back.
“Professor Ersa isn’t very considerate sometimes. Aww! Why are you hitting me…”
“It’s noisy. Let’s go get some breakfast. I’m not really looking forward to the Westwall meal.”
Medusha, who sensed the droopy atmosphere, spoke with a bright voice.
We rushed after him.
