Dark Dragon.
It seemed that was really what they called me.
A satisfied voice came out of Eunaxus mouth.
Its Kudhanaxs Fear.
Kudhanax?
Who was he?
He called me, a person he had only met for the first time, with that terrible name Dark Dragon!
If I could, I would have grabbed him by the collar.
I wanted to ask him if I had done something wrong to him.
But I couldnt do that.
[Hidden Piece: Dragon Temple]
I could see the temple through the dimensional gap.
It was a temple of dragons, so its scale fit its size. Just looking at the towering pillars made my heart feel grand. However, not everyone could enter, befitting the title [Hidden Peace].
[Recommended level: Only dragons can enter]
Instead of level, it stated a condition.
A place only for dragons.
That meant it was impossible to enter unless you were a dragon. And that was precisely the reason why I couldnt resist the terrible nickname of the Dark Dragon!
Eunaxus continued.
Dark Dragon. There is no other name that can more appropriately describe Claudie.
Yeah.
Thanks to that damn nickname, the Dark Dragon.
I now had the qualifications to access [Hidden Piece: Dragon Temple]
It wasnt just an empty word; a message appeared.
[Dark Dragon: It is not an exaggeration to compare your undisclosed reputation to a dark dragon swimming in the dark, so you are worthy to be named a dragon. You can enter Hidden Piece, Dragon Temple]
It was always important to have a positive mindset.
Yes, thanks to you, I can enter.
This was a situation where we were close to our destination after breaking through the Ice Dragons Snowy Mountain. However, if I had not met the conditions and could not enter, instead of dying out of shame, I would have died from falling off.
Not only that.
You did well canceling Diends summoning, Haiel.
If Diend had witnessed this situation, would he have remained silent?
He would have definitely spread the word everywhere.
The fact that I was known among the Dark Dragon among the dragons.
Itll only be a matter of time before the world knows.
The people of the world included my nemesis.
Even now, in No. 3, Lee Yerims contact information, I was saved as Infinitely Deep Darkness As if that wasnt bad enough, now Dark Dragon?! This man, Lee Hoyeol, didnt have the confidence to endure such shame.
Lastly.
Besides what else could it be besides the Dark Dragon?
If it was that title, I wouldnt even have an excuse.
All right, a positive mindset.
Thanks to this, I got my mind together and opened my mouth.
Its a title that fits Claudie.
It was just something I said in passing.
Eunaxus didnt listen to my words.
He unnecessarily added further explanation.
Kudhanax, who have lived as long as this old dragon, must have guessed it. Claudies unfathomable truth Thats why he couldnt easily trust what I said. However, now that he has realized this, this old dragon has one less regret.
Can you please stop exaggerating the Claudie family?
Seriously, it was painful in many ways
But I was determined to use it.
I had to endure evil with tenacity.
Above all, this was not the time to be agitated.
Dozens of dragons are waiting for me.
It was a situation where most of the dragons were clearly hostile to me.
If they didnt remember their oath.
It wouldnt be strange if I got exploded to death the moment I entered.
But regardless of the detailed story.
In the end.
I was the one who took the oath.
[You have entered the Hidden Piece, Dragon Temple.]
What came into my field of vision.
It was the sight of all the dragons bowing their heads in unison.
Towards me and Eunaxus.
As I said, most dragons were not favorable to me. I could notice right away that they were forced to bow their head because of the oath. Their feeling of discomfort was conveyed.
Grit!
How could the sound of grinding of teeth be this loud?
They even had vast mana flowing out of their body.
They were just bowing their head, but.
Theyre obviously threatening me.
But no matter how scary it was.
Grandfels pride wouldnt be broken.
I got off Eunaxus back and took a step forward.
I calmly tidied up my clothes.
Of course, I, Lee Hoyeol, wasnt scared either.
As long as I have the oath.
Dragons wouldnt be able to show their hostility to me.
In order to reveal it, they would have to lose their lives.
In that regard, I had nothing to lose.
I would give up my life anyway.
I couldnt die on the Arcana Continent.
After all, Im [The Last Adventurer].
So.
Shall we hear the whole story?
What kind of story came and went from the dragon summoning?
They tried to kill Eunaxus, who was following the World Trees will, and even ignored the oath. What was their excuse?
Tap tap
I stopped at the exact center of the Dragon Temple.
I received a lot of unpleasant stares, but this too was familiar.
The first time I stood on the podium of the Mage Tower and Crystal Hall by being parachute.
The gazes directed at me at the time were like this.
I opened my mouth indifferently.
Lets go, Eunaxus.
I continued shamelessly.
For the last time, now that all the dragons have gathered.
While willingly accepting the title Dark Dragon!
A true conference of dragons.
.
.
.CH𝒆Ck for 𝒏ew st𝒐ries on no/v/el/bin(.)c0m
The Dragon Temple.
A human entered a place that only dragons could enter.
What it meant was simple.
As Kudhanax said.
That man was a being who could safely be called a dragon.
He was the only human qualified for that.
Claudie.
Claudie truly had returned.
Young dragons of a similar age as Prosnax didnt know the seriousness of the situation. The body that grew day by day made them forget the past.
But those who passed Prosnaxs age.
The dragons who could be considered adults were guessing.
Claudie appeared again on the Arcana Continent.
What would he do to them?
Eunaxus opened his mouth.
Mothers will is realized through the death of this old dragon. It is to sprout the seed of the Mother, the World Tree, that exists within my body. In order for that seed to germinate, this old dragons humble body must serve as nourishment.
Yeah.
With the oath.
He would carry the will of Mother, the World Tree.
Crack!
But they couldnt accept it.
Even though they knew that they couldnt ignore their Mothers will.
Just like Eunaxus.
They also had seeds of the World Tree in their bodies.
It was unacceptable for them.
Why us!?
Because they were born as the king of all things.
They should bear the responsibility?
It was not even funny, Eunaxus.
What does it mean to be a king?
They had lived for eternity.
But for that eternity.
They had spent most of their time sleeping in boredom.
Because they had such great power.
Even though they had wings, they could not fly over the Arcana Continent as they wanted, and they couldnt even howl to avoid making the continent tremble with anxiety.
However.
After handing over the superficial title of king of all things, you are now going to hold me accountable? Are you asking me to sacrifice my life? We cannot tolerate this. Even if it is Mothers will, I cannot accept it!
Eunaxus didnt respond.
Hes right.
Elder Dragon.
He was the one who had lived the longest among his kin.
He could understand how they felt because he had been through everything.
That was why
I didnt resist.
They also said that Mothers will was full of contradictions.
He was secretly thinking about it.
In that regard.
I Mother and kin. I have committed a great sin against everyone.
Therefore.
He might have accepted death.
However, it was something that couldnt be undone.
Eunaxus looked at Hoyeol.
Now that Claudie has stepped up.
Since he mentioned the oath.
Eunaxus had no veto power for him or his kin.
And finally, Hoyeol broke the silence and opened his mouth.
Its just as I expected
He knew it, Hoyeol had been observing everything.
If thats what it means, its right not to follow it.
Yeah.
If that was what it meant, it was not right to follow.?!
Eunaxus was startled.
He didnt expect Hoyeol to say that.
?
He thought it was really time to close his eyes.
He looked around, wondering if his ears had gone deaf
The expressions of his kin, including Kudhanax, were not much different.
Everyone was shocked.
Even the slight hostility faded for a moment.
Their faces were full of doubt.
But their doubt didnt last long.
Because Hoyeol spoke.
The World Tree is alive and breathing at this moment.
!!!
.
.
.
From the roundtable meeting of the Mage Tower.
The imperial conference of the Yusra Kingdom.
Until the meeting of the branch heads of AAU.
I was always involved in the meetings.
So I listened to the agenda of the dragon summoning meeting.
Then I nodded.
Still, if the issue is only this much, I am glad.
First of all, they were different from the elves who had no room for rehabilitation.
More importantly, the dragons had a good reason.
Why were the dragons born as kings of all things not free?
I could guess.
Its because of the system.
Before the Cataclysm.
The days when Arcana was just a game.
Balance was the most important factor.
For example.
At the time when players were only level 100-200.
If there were thousands of level dragons flying around the continent.
Naturally, the Arcana Continent could not have developed the way it was now. With a single Dragon Fear, all creatures on the continent would have fainted, making it impossible to even function properly.
Unlike the elves, they have a reason to rebel.
Lets switch our position and think about it.
I probably would have felt wronged as well.
What would be the point of being born the king of all things?
Actually, they hadnt even used that power properly.
In that regard, the Great Dragon-Demon War might have truly been a purely enjoyable pastime for the dragons.
There was no one in their lives to play with them. Imagine that those mages came and unleashed mana.
How fun must it have been?
Of course, I wasnt alone in thinking that.
Sacrifice a few for the sake of the greater good.
Grandfel hated that more than anyone else.
Even if it was the will of the World Tree, how could anyone follow it?
In addition.
The World Tree is alive and breathing at this moment.
Like I said.
The successor to the first World Tree on the Arcana Continent.
A new World Tree was breathing alive.
Everyone seemed to think it was ridiculous.
Did they want me to tell the exact place name?
The old [Predators Swamp].
It was currently the [Secret Garden of the World Tree].
If you still dont believe me, Ill show you the quest window.
[World Quest: Seed of the World Tree]
The crisis of extinction of the Arcana continent has arrived.
In the midst of the great crisis.
Give birth to new hope.
Germinate the seed of the World Tree. (In Progress)
Seeds of the World Tree currently found 1 / UnknownSeeds of the World Tree currently sprouted 0 / Unknown
Sprout the world trees scattered across the Arcana Continent.
That was the goal of the world quest I was working on.
So, it was not for no reason that I said that.
I told you, didnt I, Eunaxus?
Told me what?
No mother wants her child to die.
!
Yeah.
If the World Tree was really using the corpse of a dead dragon as nourishment to sprout its own seeds.
I, who had sprouted the seeds of the World Tree through Hiels blessing, was no different from an uninvited guest in the plan.
There would have been no reason for the World Tree to bless me, an uninvited guest.
Therefore.
I asked the dragons, including Eunaxus.
Dragons, have you truly swallowed the seeds of the World Tree?
?
I am asking if the World Tree you witnessed is the true World Tree.
!!!
At that point, I started to understand.
Between the World Tree and the dragons.
A race so presumptous that they could make such a strange plan.
There was only one race that could do that.
Yes, it was the demons.
The moment my demon hunters intuition was on edge.
My vision flashed.
This was the first job I got in a while.
[Class Quest: Fruit of Good and Evil]
