Chapter 286: Dracoon – 3

#1

Jaehwang refrained from trying so hard in the beginning because he wanted to sort of ‘get the taste’ of his enemy. He must identify the capabilities of the monster leader to prepare for future battles.

All battles involve planning. Jaehwang gained a lot of strength, but he doesn’t just pour himself into the battle. It was efficient to gather as much information as possible, grasp the capabilities of the enemy’s power and then aim for its maximum effect. Also, Goongi, who collects information separately from Jaehwang, said something unusual.

‘He’s got a similar way of operating his mana as the Dracoon. It’s weird to call it a coincidence. Maybe he’s stealing some of the Dracoon’s powers right now.’

‘Stolen? Are you saying a monster is learning?’

‘It’s just a possibility. But it’s not impossible either. And if he can do it, so can the Ruler.’

‘That’s not good at all.’

It reminded him of the Ruler when she said the monster was stealing his opponent’s ability. When they first met, Ruler tried to measure Jaehwang’s ability by sending monsters to him sequentially. Next time, he also appeared in person and tried to grasp his psychology through dialogue. When he put those things together, the Ruler did seem very obsessed with information or maybe, he already stole one or two of Jaehwang’s abilities.

Zap…

‘Well, shouldn’t we take care of him completely first and then think about it slowly?’

‘I agree.’ Jaehwang gathered his eyebrows in a white light that passed under his feet. He would have been a hit if Goongi hadn’t moved shrewdly.

“It’s a little annoying.”

While doing tricks in the air with Goongi, Jaehwang made some modifications to his trade battle guidelines. There was always an unexpected variable in combat all the time. His flexible response to the situation also serves as the foundation for a victory. What was needed now was a bold investment and Jaehwang had enough and ample funds to make such an investment.

‘Let’s see how he reacts to the oppressive attack. Let’s go up.’

‘Alright.’

Following Jaehwang’s words, Goongi soared quickly and when she reached her limit, she began to bend and fall again.

‘Just give me some support.’

‘Okay. I’m letting go!’

Swoosh!

Goongi let Jaehwang go. Jaehwang, who was starting a free fall at Goongi’s pace, pulled out his bow and nocked an arrow. Moments later, a huge flow of mana gathered at Jaehwang’s fingertips, which was incomparable to the previous ones. His mana became more and more condensed. As the mana gathered to its limits just before the explosion, they began expanding constantly while wriggling.

‘The target is all monsters that come into sight!’

‘If you spread the shock around, I wonder how you would react when everything around you is attacked.’

Pulling the Arrow to the limit, Jaehwang laid out the bow that he had been holding, focusing on the leader that was targeted in his gaze.

Swoosh…

The sound of the shot was so feeble. It felt as if a small blade of grass was swept to the ground by the wind.

But…

Drrr…BAAAAAAM!!! PAPAPAK!!!

As if to ridicule his sentiment of a moment ago, a tremendous roar that seemed to rip the earth apart exploded in concentric circles around him. Its sound was so loud that it could even erase the harrowing sound of the battle of fortifications from the ground. But that sound was only the beginning. It’s a prelude to a devastating disaster that would take place in a few minutes.

BOOOOM!!!

Centered on the leader, hundreds and thousands of red beams shot down toward the ground. For a moment, the beam destroyed everything by literally making a circle, which was 700 meters in diameter, in the middle of the battlefield.

Everything was equal within that circle.

Only pain, screams and destruction were repeated in it. The beams of destruction, big or small, were ruthlessly crushed. The same was true of the leader, who was targeted for the attack.

“Arg!!!” He screamed and resisted. Its former shield appeared and began to fend off the other attacks once more.

Whenever there was a white spark, the shock would spread all over the place. Every time the sparks were on, the Tier-7 and 8 monsters were killed, but the upper-tier ones somehow managed to survive with their leader.

Zap…..

When Jaehwang’s second attack ended, a huge space was seen among the monsters. All but a few super-high-leveled monsters have been massacred.

“Hooh, this is enough.”

With the tip of his mouth twitching, Jaehwang was rising back into the air in reaction to the attack he fired into the ground. His second experiment on his opponent was approvable. Of course, the experiment is not over yet.

“Try this, too.”

Zaaaaaap!

Once again, the red ray expanded like an explosion that was a little bigger than the last time.

Red sparks began to occur throughout Jaehwang’s body, which clumped it up faster and began to suck the manna around him in a powerful way. Around his body, the mana’s storm almost distorted space.

‘I need to rest a little.’

L’s voice came into Jaehwang’s head. As he glanced at her, a red dragon, which seemed cooked, was crossing the fortress. Inside the white column of light was the divinity of the monster leader. She must have been quite tired from being exposed to it for a long time.

Moreover, as Jaehwang began to absorb some mana, it was no longer possible for L to be in the same space.

After a while…

Kwak!!!!! BOOM!

A third red light swept through the battlefield.

It was a little more intense than the second, it had a more lethal impact this time than his second attack. It was because the leader monster, after the first attack, had called more monsters around him. Although it was an effort to live longer, the monsters under his command became the targets of that red light.

Pow!!!

There were many monsters capable of launching long-range attacks, but they were now overwhelmed by the fact that they had to withstand that demon’s attack with their bodies.

Thud…Thud…

In an instant, thousands of monsters were massacred again. Few monsters now rushed into the fortress. Their leader drew his powers around desperately to survive. There was no longer a willingness to fight in him, who was bleeding in one eye.

his only hope was that the genocide, which was overwhelming and he would be fed up with, would soon end so he could return to the Dark Earth.

“Ha, survive this one too!”

His third attempt was a wide-area attack that enabled him to use his divinity economically. Compared to the non-economic wide-area attacks he made in Dark Earth, he used about 50 percent of his energy. But their leader was still alive.

Jaehwang’s face hardened.

There will be at least a dozen of such monsters in the Dark Earth. It would be quite difficult to fight them even with Goongi if such things were to come together all at once.

“Okay.” With a nod, Jaehwang rallied again. It’s time to end it, he pushed his divinity to the fullest extent possible. At the same time, he also brought up his new myths.

‘God of Murder’ [SS-Class]’

SWOOSH!

The gathering of mana contained only the will to kill and destroy. God’s will meant power.

‘Goongi, find it for me.’

‘All right!’

Goongi’s myth began to chase the primitive flow of life that all monsters entering her sight had. That’s what she did at the Dark Earth. This time, her space was not limited, she targeted everything in sight. Soon, when the sources of all the flows were aimed at Jaehwang’s eyes, Jaewhang let his arrow loose.

“Die.”

“Oh, ah, ah…”

Looking up into the sky, Leah, the queen of the Dracoon, almost stumbled and sat down. It was pointless to be in the middle of a blood-sparking, and flaky battlefield. It was such a place where the screams of her people were rife just a moment ago but now, her ears hear no sound.

The only thing that she felt was the catharsis of pleasure accompanied by ecstasy. Beautiful, only that simple definition of a word was in her head. It was so beautiful. If there were arts in war, that would be compared to god’s work.

Yes, he was a god.

She dared not look at him because he was too bright. She wants to kneel and praise him right away. The god, who appeared from heaven with a bow, gave the monsters who threatened the survival of the Dracoon the grace of merciless slaughter. Look at those monsters. Just a little while ago, full of life and madness, they pushed her people to their last fortress, but in the eyes of the monsters who attacked them, they were now filled with fear of death rather than determination.

She recalled the hidden pages of the Dracoon history she had read a long time ago, the true god of the Dracoon that was believed by the ancient Dracoons who lived before the era of the evil god Al but had to be forgotten in time.

Dragona.

“Dragona has come beyond time and space.”

It was a forgotten ancient god of the Dracoons who judges good and evil by holding a bow in one hand and a flame in the other.

Coincidentally, the main weapons of the Dracoons were bows and magic, and that god was also using bows to attack those huge monsters. Although there was Al that they served for thousands of years, Al was also a new god of a different tribe. The idea that Dragona was the true god of the Dracoons was deeply embedded in Leah’s heart.

Zaaap…!

“Oh, ahhhhhhh… Dragona…!” The staggered Leah finally knelt down.

The sky was brimming with a red sun. She extended her hands to him, not even knowing that her tears trickled down. At the same time, there was a blinding explosion of light.

A moment later when all the bursts of light disappeared, she exclaimed in a fit of faint emotion, “Dragona saved us!”

“Dragona? Dragona…! Our god!”

A new ancient god, who was much more powerful than the “Al” who fell over the mountain after being beaten by a monster’s attack, had been revived.

Look, listen, here’s the history of Dragona.

His arrows killed all his enemies, he was the man who appeared with the sun and saved the Dracoons.

#3

Leah, the queen of Dracoon, laid her face down in front of Jaehwang. Thousands of Dracoons who came out of the fortress and those who had been hiding inside and underground all poured out and bowed to Jaehwang. Their number was likely to be hundreds of thousands.

“Great Dragona.” At her lead, they all shouted at Jaehwang.

Although Jaehwang is a human figure, originally a myth related to Dragona shows that Dragona has many forms of life. There were times when he took the shape of a dragon or an ancient man and the image of a native Dracoon, so they didn’t care if Jaehwang’s figure was like the earthlings who invaded them.

He was the God who wiped out the enemies from their last fortress.

‘What’s a Dragona?’

‘It is the native god worshipped by the Dracoon in ancient times. There’s still a record of it huh? Damn it.’ L grumbled as if she didn’t like something.

It has been only a few millennia since L and Al were divided into the good and evil spirits that ruled Elus. So, of course, before them, there were gods who had been served well. L had an ominous hunch that something they had forgotten had been resurrected by this human that she brought back.

“It’s not bad. Hey, soften up your face, won’t you?” Goongi, who appeared as a half-man and half-animal, leaned over Jaehwang’s shoulder and said that to L.

As soon as L saw Goongi’s eyes, she lowered her gaze. L became scared as Goongi expressed her will that if L didn’t leave Jaehwang alone, she would have to pay for that. From Goongi’s point of view, it wouldn’t be so good to see her beloved Jaehwang being praised by some other creatures. It’s not what L originally wanted, but who cares? It was not bad for L as it was all about reviving Al again anyways.
