289 – 277.7 Days of Dragon-6
The fire that has spread throughout the mansion cannot be easily extinguished.
There was a lot of noise outside because a fire broke out in the village chief’s mansion.
However, the inside of the mansion was actually quiet.
There was no sound other than the sound of burning wood, as if it were empty.
‘It’s strange.’
This is the house where the village chief and several servants were present just a few hours ago.
Even though the place was burning, it felt suspicious that no one screamed or tried to put out the fire.
“What are you doing? “Are you not going back?”
“I’m sorry, Mr. Freeze, but I would like to investigate the mansion further.”
“Have you found any evidence yet?”
“No, we found the evidence. However, it seems that there are hidden secrets that have not yet been discovered.”
“Is there really a need to reveal such a secret?”
“Yes, it might be important to me too.”
It was revealed to the public that this was for Breeze’s sake.
However, when I confirmed that the pocket watch sent to the past was here, I realized that it was a problem related to me as well.
The watch came into my possession, but I wasn’t sure if it was genuine.
There are stories that I had to hear directly from the village chief’s mouth, so I wanted to at least secure her recruitment.
“Okay, can I come along instead?”
“Of course.”
The village chief was a criminal who committed a merciless massacre of his own people in the sacred territory of Gwangryong.
Her disposition is still Breeze’s responsibility, and I just have business with her.
“I guess I should put out the fire first.”
“You don’t have to do that, just hold my hand!”
Just as she was about to extinguish the flames with her magic, Breeze reached out and held out her hand.
I took her hand at an invitation I couldn’t refuse.
A cold energy came from her connected hands and formed a thin film over her entire body.
The fire that felt hot just a moment ago now felt lukewarm.
“Where should I go?”
“I think we should go in a direction where there is a lot of mana reaction.”
“Then it must be this way!”
“Oh, wait… !”
Because it was a dragon that could safely be called a race that lives with mana, she moved forward without hesitation.
As soon as she came out into the hallway where the damage from the fire was most severe, wooden planks were falling from the ceiling onto her head.
I hurriedly pulled Breeze’s body, but she didn’t move.
Just before the top of her head collided with the board, the board that touched the film of cold froze like ice and fell to the floor.
‘There’s no way a dragon could get hurt by something like a wooden board… ….’
As she sighed, thinking that her worries were for nothing, Breeze, who had been staring blankly, suddenly jumped into her arms.
“Pff, Mr. Freeze? “What are you doing?”
“Didn’t you pull me in because you wanted to do this?”
“Please don’t misunderstand. I just pulled the wooden plank because it was falling from the ceiling. “I know it’s unnecessary to worry, so it’s okay to leave now.”
“But in the end, if I had been attracted to you, I would have been hugged like this, right?”
“I can’t deny that, but isn’t it meaningless to embrace it after the situation is over?”
“Well? “I don’t know, so I guess I’ll just have to stay like this a little longer!”
“Please joke in moderation…” ….”
As I gently pushed Breeze’s body away, she pursed her lips and started laughing.
Her face was unusually hot. Could it be because of the heat from the fire?
I followed Breeze, fanning myself with one hand.
From now on, I will have to pay more attention to my personal safety.
“This way.”
“This is…” … “This is exactly the place I was looking for.”
A room reached by quickly climbing the collapsing stairs.
The room that Breeze told me was experiencing a lot of mana reactions was the village chief’s private room.
When we went inside by tearing off the doorknob, which had been weakened by the fire, the entire inside was also on fire.
Among the furniture dyed red by the fire, one full-length mirror stood out.
Unlike the other furniture, not only was it fine, but Breeze was also looking at the mirror with her eyes narrowed.
“This mirror looks ordinary on the outside, but it is connected to another space.”
“If it is connected to another space, it seems like the people in the mansion escaped here.”
“If it’s not here, I guess it doesn’t exist. So how are you going to get in?”
“I have to go in. “It must have gone out through here.”
It was surprising that the village chief left the mansion without any regrets.
However, it would not be such a strange story to say that the pocket watch was almost completed and ready to travel to the past.
“If we’ve decided, let’s go quickly!”
Breese suddenly jumps towards the mirror while holding my hand.
Like a warp portal, her body was s*ucked into the mirror, and I entered one after another.
My body arrived in the world beyond the mirror, feeling depressed as if caught in a storm.
“Kill!”
“aaah!”
As soon as I could take a step, the command to kill reached my ears and men in butler clothes rushed at me with swords in hand.
Before I could respond with her magic, Breeze clicked her tongue in disappointment and let go of my hand.
Jumping high off the ground, she spun around in the air and stretched out her legs.
Her whip-like legs hit the man’s side, sending out a shock wave.
If the direct hit had been to her temple, her head would have exploded.
Although she barely survived because of her side, she would have no choice but to live with a crippled body for the rest of her life.
It might have been better to die cleanly.
“You followed me all the way here.”
“He was running away so I followed him and found that he had created another shady space like this. “Aren’t you the rat, not me?”
“…… “You’re hiding your true face and using honorifics again. I guess that means you want to look pretty in front of your group?”
“I don’t really know what you’re talking about?”
The village chief and I talked while hiding our true feelings with fake smiles.
I knew because we were both good at lying.
The true intention is that the person is anxious to kill the other person.
However, it seemed to Breeze that she was on good terms with her, so she puffed out her cheeks slightly and joined in the conversation.
“What, you weren’t an enemy?”
“No, she is clearly an enemy. “She is a vicious martial artist who must be punished.”
“Wouldn’t it be arrogant for you, who are not even a judge, to evaluate and judge the nature of my crime on your own?”
“I may not be a judge, but at least in this area, I am the Dragon’s foodie who has more authority than the law.”
“You have to brag to a certain degree to be listened to. At the very least, could you show it to me like I am with an army of hundreds of horses?”
Clap clap!
The chimeras I had defeated gathered behind the clapping village chief.
The corpses of the remaining demonic beasts were mixed together to create a monster.
Assuming that she used 5 demonic beast corpses per animal, the amount of demonic energy she extracted was unfathomable.
Moreover, among the chimeras, there were some human corpses, and some of them were probably young people who had been exploited by the village chief.
“The prison you were taken to was just a secret space created in the beginning.”
“Are you saying it was really here?”
“That’s right. Here, I was using over a thousand demonic beasts and foreign youth as the foundation for my grand goal!”
“You have done a lot of things, including confinement, torture, murder, and even producing hybrids. Even the warlock will be amazed at your evil deeds.”
The chimeras standing behind the village chief began to walk forward one by one.
The moment the order is given, they will rush in like a moon.
The strength of the chimera was at a level that I could handle, but the problem was the quantity.
If I had gone in alone, I would have backed away and run away, but there was no need to do that now.
“He is not only stupid, but also rude. “If I had quietly escaped from prison and run away, I could have at least avoided death.”
I did not reply to the village chief’s provocative remarks, but responded with ridicule.
She is trying to act calm, but her eyebrows are wrinkled like my river.
The village chief also decided that the above conversation was meaningless and extended her hand and pointed at me.
At the same time, hundreds of chimeras began to rush towards me.
“Can we just handle everything?”
“Yes. “All you have to do is spare the life of the woman over there.”
“Only make me do hard work!”
“I’m sorry. But once this matter is over, I will be able to spend quality time with Mr. Freeze from now on.”
“Then there is nothing we can do.”
Breeze confidently stepped in front of me and placed her hands together to form a stand.
Soon after, a white sphere was created on her palm and was shining brightly.
On the outside, the sphere only looked like a white light, but a quick look inside gave me shivers.

A concentration of highly advanced energy.
Moreover, energy continued to gather into the sphere.
Given its speed, it was expected to reach its limit before the Chimeras could attack, so cracks were engraved on the outer shell of the sphere like a hatching egg.
As the gold grew thicker, light with a high heat enough to burn all objects emanated from the cracks.
Soon, the outer shell completely collapsed and pure white light engulfed the surroundings.
A special breath that only Gwangryong can use in this world.
A miniature version of the technology that had swallowed up half of the continent has now been revealed in this place.
‘Oh… ….’
All the chimeras that were so disgusting have disappeared.
It literally disappeared as if it never existed from the beginning, and only me, Breeze, and the village chief remained in the space.
I couldn’t understand what kind of phenomenon this was.
I realized that setting fire to the house was really just a prank for Breeze.
‘If Breeze and her husband fight, I’m really going to die, right?’
Cold sweat was rolling down my back as I was experiencing the power of Breeze’s breath for the first time.
