290 – 278.7 Days of Dragon-7
After witnessing the sight of the chimeras he had trusted disappearing without a trace, the village chief sat down in vain.
He fell to his knees at the overwhelming difference in power and tried to understand the being he was fighting.
However, there is no way that a mere insignificant being would recognize a dragon.
If only Bern hadn’t said that he was a dragon’s eater.
“Seo, could it really be Gwangryong… ?”
“Your words are short?”
“…… Gwangryong.”
Even though Breeze was the one who showed transcendent power, it was very annoying to see Bern next to her puffing up.
But the village chief could not say anything.
As it is difficult to see a dragon in one’s lifetime, building a relationship of trust enough to become a gourmet was like picking a star from the sky.
The man in front of me had done that difficult task, so I couldn’t ignore him either.
“Why did Gwangryong, the ruler of the North, come to a place like this?”
“Of course, I decided that I could no longer tolerate your evil deeds, so I wanted to personally punish you…” ….”
“Date!”
Bern looked at Breeze intently.
Even though she was close, she couldn’t stare at the dragon, so she was making a silent appeal in her own way.
However, as if her seeds had not been eaten, Breeze did not pick up her words.
“Date… ? “Are you talking about that guy who called himself a gourmet?”
“Yes, I came to the village with Geon-woo because I was curious about what other humans’ cooking was like!”
Bern covered her face with her palm.
He tried to make her confess her whole story by pretending that he had come to punish her village chief for his crimes.
But because Breeze was too honest, Bern’s plan fell through.
Still, he couldn’t blame Breeze. She didn’t even have the strength to do that.
‘Even if only the body was the same, they would have stabbed Breeze with the holy sword and educated him by asking him why he behaved as he wanted…….’
Bern was beginning to miss the Holy Sword.
Prah, who had been his lifelong companion, suddenly fell into the background.
“Does that mean that Mr. Gwangryong and that man happened to come to this village to visit and found out about my plan?”
“That’s right. “The person who discovered your plan was not me, but Geon-wu!”
“If only I hadn’t approached him… ….”
“Maybe I passed by without knowing. But, as always, you approached me, a foreigner, and thanks to you, I smelled it. “The dirty, ugly smell of a wicked person.”
“Ha, hahahaha… ! “I guess I brought it all on myself.”
The village chief realized his mistake and let his laughter go.
But no one could blame her for her mistake.
How could the village chief think that the man she approached was a dragon eater?
It was clear that 99 out of 100 people would conclude that the accident was caused by extremely bad luck.
“I did not hesitate to commit such terrible atrocities in my territory, so I should be punished, right?”
“…… “I just don’t understand.”
“If you are now thinking of denying yourself any wrongdoing… ….”
“No, I have no intention of backing away. I admit that I have committed all the evil deeds I have committed so far. “The part I said I couldn’t understand was that I was the only one subject to the condemnation given by Gwangryong.”
“Aha! “Are you saying that your servants are also accomplices, so you want them to be scolded the same way?”
The village chief shook his head left and right as if that was not true.
Breese is frustrated because he doesn’t know what her intentions are.
Bern, who had read her village chief’s diary, had roughly guessed the target of her condemnation.
“Are you talking about the thieves who killed your family?”
“hehehe! “When you say that, it seems like you haven’t read my entire diary.”
“Where was the time for that? “I was running out of time to chase after you.”
“Then I will let you know. The full story of the terrible massacre that occurred 20 years ago…….”
“Okay, let’s conclude. Because we are not idle listening to other people’s tragic stories!”
Her village chief resented Breeze for not taking her story seriously, but she could not blame him.
Not only are dragons selfish in general, but Breeze considered her time with her human man so important that she revealed that it was a date.
She was in no position to voice her dissatisfaction, as she herself had intervened.
If humans had been in a position to question dragons in the first place, they would not have feared dragons.
“I understand. “To conclude, I would be grateful if you would punish the person who created the decisive factor that led me to commit this evil act.”
“Who is that?”
“I am Viscount Helgen, the lord who rules over a city not far from the village. He not only hired a band of thieves to infiltrate the city, but also murdered my son, who had been the previous lord, and took over as lord.”
An incident in which the lord and his family were murdered by disguising themselves as attractive foreigners.
Behind the scenes, there was a nobleman who became the next lord.
I found out about this fact later, and since it appeared in the second part of the diary, Bern didn’t know either.
“Okay. Then I just have to scold him too, right?”
“Yes, if possible, I would like the punishment to be the same as the one given to me.”
The village chief gave up his regrets.
It would be a lie to say that I had no desire to return to the happy past by bringing my family back to life, but I gave it up voluntarily.
He admitted that he was a murderer who could not be saved because he had killed many innocent people.
She did not ask for mercy, but instead showed a desire for revenge.
If I couldn’t go back to the past, I wanted to make the criminal who killed my family suffer the same way.
‘That’s enough.’
I thought it would not be a bad ending as long as I could resolve my family’s injustice and avenge my grudge.
It may not be the best, but it will be the next best option.
The chief sat there quietly with his eyes closed, as if he had shackled her.
“Wake up. “I still have so many questions to ask, why are you already preparing to die?”
Hearing Bern’s voice, the village chief slowly opened his eyes.
The dragon, which was exuding intimidation, was grumbling and heading towards the entrance.
Judging by the fact that his tone of voice became clearer, I realized that he was talking to me privately while pushing the dragon back.
“So you are carrying out the execution on behalf of the noble dragon so as not to dirty his hands.”
“What nonsense are you talking about? Our Gwangryong doesn’t care about personal matters like getting his hands dirty. “That’s something only a fake king would do.”
“Your words are clearly blasphemous, aren’t they?”
“If you have any intention of being hostile towards Gwangryong, you can report it.”
“No one will be able to touch that person unless they are of his own kind or a dragon or higher. Moreover, humans are currently at war with demons, so there is no benefit in touching the light dragon.”
“It’s good that you can judge the situation quickly.”
Bern grinned and put his hand into his arms.
What was taken out from there was the village chief’s pocket watch and an unidentified artifact that can travel to the past.
“Is this fake?”
“Well?”
“I didn’t ask you to play with me. There’s no way you would leave without taking back this watch, which was your only hope. So this is fake, right?”
“… ….”
“Take it as an affirmation. So where is the real pocket watch?”
“What are you going to do with your pocket watch? Are you going to break it?”
Bern chuckled at the village chief’s words.
She is the only evidence that allowed her to be here, and it is a ridiculous artifact called time reversal.
The idea of destroying it did not exist in Bern’s mind.
“Why did you destroy it, such a shame?”
“So are you going to use it? “It’s still unfinished, so I need to fill it up a bit more with my magic energy.”
“All you have to do is fill in the details.”
“If you are going to make the same mistake as me…….”
“Stop giving sour advice. At least I don’t have any intention of achieving the greater good by sacrificing others like anyone else. And the pocket watch…… At least I won’t use ‘I’.”
“That means you are going to hand it over to someone else.”
“That’s right. Huh…… “Maybe so.”
I didn’t know if I could go back to the future even if I used a clock.
However, I had a feeling that I should not use the pocket watch in succession.
It is rare for an artifact to have two or more abilities, and there have never been cases where it has conflicting abilities.
This means that there is no artifact that has the effect of sending to the past or the future.
It would be nice if it was an artifact that would allow the user to control time, but since it brought them to the past even though they did not wish for it, there was no possibility of that happening.
“Anyway, you don’t need to know how I use it, right? If you want to see the target of your revenge die horribly, pass the watch. “I will give you probation.”
“…… Is it so.”
The village chief took out a pocket watch from the leather pouch on his waist.
Bern frowned at her because the quality was different from the fake one, but then she lifted the corner of her mouth.
It was the same magic that I felt when I got the watch.
You can just tell your future self as it is now. He was satisfied just by learning how to handle a watch.
“Is it still far?”
“It’s over now.”
“Let’s go! “It’s a waste of time!”
Bern returns to Breeze, who is stomping his feet and fussing like a child.
Breese’s hand suddenly stretched out in front of him.
When I wondered about this, she pointed outside the mirror.
“It’s still burning. “Let’s go out holding hands!”

“I see… ….”
It was an unnecessary consideration, but I couldn’t refuse Breeze, whose eyes were shining and telling me to catch him quickly.
Bern scratched her cheek and carefully held her hand.
“Hold on tight?”
“Yes?”
I could feel the ferocious strength of Breeze’s connected arms.
She yanked his arm and wrapped her arms around Vern’s waist and hugged him.
She came out of the mirror and changed her appearance by destroying the outer wall of the crumbling building.
She transformed into the dragon she had been when she first met him on the snowy mountain and flew up into the sky.
“Bo, is it okay to reveal your true self like this?”
“It doesn’t matter! “What would anyone say if they saw me?”
“Yes, but…” .”
“And I don’t want to waste any more time!”
The two headed straight to a new area, leaving behind a thick billow of black smoke.
However, the two faced black smoke again.
“We are not slaves!”
“Money and alcohol! And take away all your weapons!”
“Captain! “There are a lot of abandoned weapons here!”
“Rake it all in! We’ll make it new with our own hands! hahahahaha!”
Not just the mansion, but the entire city was on fire by the dwarves.
