Chapter 282: Half-and-Half Dragon
Half-and-Half Dragon opened his draconic mouth for the first time.
“Takiki. You’ve grown a lot. Enough to come before me and voice your complaints.”
“Cough―!”
“Ugh……!”
“Ugh…… uh……”
As Half-and-Half Dragon questioned them with an air of authority, all the elven envoys of the Fairy-Elven Alliance, including Larev, fell to their knees.
“……. “
On the other hand, the Fairy King, though frowning, did not kneel.
With a look of extreme displeasure or perhaps annoyance, she asked,
“…Half-and-Half Dragon-nim. I request you to refrain from speaking with Dragon Qi imbued in your words. The elves of our alliance are strong against mana, but weak against dragon speech infused with Dragon Qi.”
“Are you in any position to ask me for favors? You’ve come here with an envoy to apologize, yet you speak so boldly.”
“I am here as a representative of a canton, for a diplomatic meeting with the representative of another canton.”
“Khahaha…… A representative of a canton. You’ve gotten the backing of human law and now you’re getting ahead of yourself.”
Half-and-Half Dragon said so, and with Dragon Qi…….
“Kraaaaaaaaaaa!”
He roared even louder with a more powerful dragon speech, without holding back.
[Legendary Magic 『Dragon Speech: Overwhelm』 ]
“Ugh―.”
“Eugh―.”
“Gah―.”
Thud! Thud! Thud!
The elven envoys all collapsed, foaming at the mouth.
『Dragon Speech: Overwhelm』 is a dragon’s magic that makes weaklings lose consciousness and collapse.
This was the reason why even if tens of thousands, hundreds of millions of those who lack sufficient strength gathered, they would never be a match for a dragon.
“Khehehe.”
Looking at the collapsed elven envoys, Half-and-Half Dragon spoke to Fairy King Takiki in a relieved voice.
“How is it, Takiki? Will you now forget about the cantons and representatives and show the proper attitude towards a great dragon once more?”
“……. “
Takiki was unaffected by Half-and-Half Dragon’s dragon speech, but her expression remained unpleasant.
However, such an expression on Takiki’s face only…
“Klalala! They are the weak elves of the Fael Alliance!”
“It’s the dragon speech of Half-and-Half Dragon-nim! It can’t be helped! Klalala!”
“They are commendable for not wetting themselves! Let us acknowledge them with the vast mercy of our dragon!”
“Krahahaha!”
“Khaharalala!”
…served to further please the dragons watching from both sides.
‘Sigh, the higher-ups of the Fairy-Elven Alliance are only good at playing politics and neglecting their training, hence this sorry state…… They should have just pushed through the policy and gotten rid of things like experience potions.’
Since the invention of experience potions in the Fairy-Elven Alliance, the average level had certainly increased significantly, and magical research had progressed further, allowing for a much more civilized life than before.
However, the number of those who honed themselves and trained diligently had noticeably decreased.
In other words, they had become lazy, like the elven envoys sprawled here.
‘That’s why I said we should have brought the army, but if only those damn anti-Fairy King faction hadn’t made a fuss about starting a war…….’
Takiki clicked her tongue and deployed her mana.
[Legendary Magic 『Spatial Severance』 ]
Wheeeng. Wheeeng. Wheeeng.
An eerie sound that couldn’t be described echoed from all directions.
“Klalalaha?”
“Khaharala?”
The moment the dragons who were laughing on both sides showed a puzzled expression.
Swoosh!
All their hands were severed, and dragon blood splattered everywhere.
And just 0.1 seconds later.
[Legendary Magic 『Spatial Joining』 ]
Chop. Chop. Chop.
The severed space reconnected, and the severed hands returned to their original state.
Splash!
The dragon blood that had spurted out for 0.1 seconds decorated the path on either side of Takiki like a decalcomania.
And then.
Takiki looked up at Half-and-Half Dragon and spoke confidently.
“Half-and-Half Dragon-nim, it was too noisy to listen to your words, so I just shut the surroundings up a bit.”
“You……! Do you know who you are standing before?!”
The dragon elves waiting beside the dragons tried to express their hostility towards the Fairy King all at once.
However, they soon had to withdraw all hostility.
Because a being higher than them had stepped forward to receive the hostility instead.
“Stop! She is not someone to be dealt with by lowly elf servants! And Fairy King! What is the meaning of this action?”
Red Dragon.
“Khehehe. Are you thinking of covering this entire cramped Dragon Square with elf blood? It’s a shame that you’re the only Fairy here.”
Black Dragon.
“This is quite radical for someone who came for a diplomatic meeting as a representative of a canton. You will have to explain all your actions later.”
White Dragon.
“Even if you are the Fairy King, to do such a thing in front of us…… Do you have no intention of returning alive?”
Blue Dragon.
The Four Heavenly Dragons all stepped forward and began to pressure Fairy King.
“Sigh, this is my fate…….”
Shaking her head, Fairy King deployed her mana without backing down.
Sizzle.
The mana was so dense that the smell of ozone permeated the air.
Just before such a momentous battle between Fairy King VS Four Heavenly Dragons was about to break out.
“Everyone, stop. Playtime is over.”
Whoosh!
Half-and-Half Dragon stopped everyone with a dragon speech that even the Four Heavenly Dragons would flinch at.
His eyes were looking towards the entrance, far at the end of Dragon Square.
Swoosh.
Confirming Half-and-Half Dragon’s appearance, the Fairy King retracted the mana she had deployed back into her body.
And looking towards the entrance as well, she muttered with a wry smile.
“You’ve finally arrived. You almost got me impeached for real.”
If he had been even a little later, a fierce battle between the Fairy King and the Four Heavenly Dragons would have definitely broken out.
The surroundings would have been devastated, and the surrounding cantons would have been in complete chaos, leading to Fairy King’s impeachment.
A future of chaos, destruction, and ruin.
And.
“Haha, sorry. It took a while to deal with those pesky elves.”
Kyung-joon appeared, preventing such a future at the perfect time.
And Kyung-joon, very naturally manipulating his mana.
[Legendary Skill (Forced) 『Vector Calculus (Lv.1)』 ]
Woong.
He placed the limp body of the elven butler at his feet.
Step.
Kyung-joon placed his left foot on it.
Woong Woong.
Then, a second elven maid fell from the sky and hung limply in mid-air.
Kyung-joon placed his right foot on her.
Woong.
And so, the third.
Woong.
The fourth.
Woong.
The fifth.
Woong, Woong, Woong, Woong…….
When it reached the twentieth.
There were no more steps to step on.
<Master, look around. There are steps overflowing.>
“You’re right. Everyone, I’ll borrow your bodies for a moment.”
[Legendary Skill (Forced) 『Vector Calculus (Lv.1)』 ]
Kyung-joon deployed the mana of Vector Calculus with his intellect exceeding 10,000, enveloping the overflowing dragon elves around him.
“Ugh?!”
“Ugh……!”
“W, What……?!”
The dragon elves lined up on both sides tried to resist, but.
Woong, Woong, Woong!
They could not resist at all and became steps one by one.
“Half-and-Half Dragon-nim……! I will―.”
“Do not interfere. It will spoil the fun.”
The Four Heavenly Dragons were about to tear Kyung-joon apart, but Half-and-Half Dragon stopped them.
Seeing this, Kyung-joon said to Teemo.
“I was right, wasn’t I? He’ll watch.”
<I almost got forcibly logged out for showing off something awesome.>
“Hahaha.”
Kyung-joon had predicted that Half-and-Half Dragon would not attack him immediately and would observe for the time being.
That was why he had called Kyung-joon here.
And Kyung-joon had already earned the right to do so.
Woong, Woong, Woong, Woong…….
Just how many steps did he create and step on?
When a long elven staircase was created from the entrance of Dragon Square to where Half-and-Half Dragon was.
Kyung-joon was able to stand face-to-face with Half-and-Half Dragon, their eyes meeting.
Spin, spin, spin.
A maid was spinning around Kyung-joon as if playing a game of Ganggangsullae.
<Half-and-Half Dragon’s First Maid>
▼Moitie (NPC)
“……. “
She was limp, and it was impossible to tell whether she was alive or dead.
“Did you kill her?”
Half-and-Half Dragon asked, narrowing his eyes.
To this, Kyung-joon.
Stab!
Stabbed Moitie’s stomach with his hand, just as he had been stabbed.
Stab!
Kyung-joon pulled his hand out.
Gush. Gush.
With a large hole in her stomach, Moitie bled like a waterfall.
“Yes. I killed her.”
“……!”
The Fairy King below the stairs.
The Four Heavenly Dragons on either side of Half-and-Half Dragon.
All the dragons and dragon elves lined up in a row.
Everyone’s eyes widened as if they had witnessed an impossible situation.
And at the same time.
[Legendary Skill (Forced) 『Eternal Telomere』 ]
Gurgle. Gurgle.
<Half-and-Half Dragon’s First Maid>
▼Moitie (NPC)
“Cough……!”
Moitie, who had died, came back to life in an instant.
Woong!
Still unable to move, Moitie was placed in front of him.
Step.
Kyung-joon, using the stairs, stood at the same eye level as Half-and-Half Dragon.
Looking directly at Half-and-Half Dragon, Kyung-joon continued his words.
“And just now, I brought her back to life.”
“……!!”
Everyone held their breath.
Even the Four Heavenly Dragons dared not speak.
Even Fairy King’s eyes widened as if they were about to pop out, and she was on the verge of fainting.
No one in Dragon Square had imagined such an insane situation, so no one dared to speak first.
And at the same time.
Everyone thought.
‘That, that, that, that, that, that bastard……!! He’s a real crazy son of a bitch……!!’
Kyung-joon’s otherworldly diplomacy.
Its first act was.
Against the 『Dragonian-Elven Alliance』, known as the strongest among the seven cantons.
🔷🔷🔷🔷🔷🔷
Otherworldly.
This is another world, everyone thought.
First.
He killed Half-and-Half Dragon’s First Maid right in front of him.
And then he immediately brought her back to life.
And now he’s using that maid as a step to meet Half-and-Half Dragon’s gaze.
What was even more incomprehensible was.
He, an otherworlder, was a human no matter how you looked at him.
But the aura surrounding him emanated a magical energy similar to that of the Four Heavenly Dragons.
In terms of stats, it meant he had the intellect and mana of a Dragon King.
Of course, the Fairy King might have higher intellect stats.
But the problem was that a human, an otherworlder who had only been in the World for two years, had reached an intellect of 10,000.
And that wasn’t all.
The two spells that felt legendary.
Vector Calculus and Eternal Telomere.
They were spells so bizarre and strange that even dragons who had lived for hundreds and thousands of years had never seen them before.
The unknown.
The dragons in Dragon Square felt a fear that stemmed from the unknown for the first time in a long time.
But the leader of this place.
Half-and-Half Dragon was different.
“Krahahahahahaha!!”
He laughed heartily.
“It’s been a long time since I’ve felt this joyful! Yes! I know even without using my dragon eyes! You are the descendant of that damned friend of mine! Krahahaha! Krahahaha!”
Thud! Thud!
He was so genuinely happy and laughing so loudly that he didn’t even notice the weaker elves and dragons around him collapsing and foaming at the mouth.
To this, Kyung-joon.
“Yes. I am Kyung-joon, descendant of the Infinite Knowledge Seeker, the previous Huma.”
He gave a wry smile as if he was a little embarrassed and greeted Half-and-Half Dragon politely with proper etiquette.
And rightfully so.
Because, in Huma’s folder, Kyung-joon had seen.
Half-and-Half Dragon in front of him was the close friend that Huma had written about as his best friend.
