239. Dragon King (4)
#239
‘···War?’
Ronan narrowed his eyes after hearing the Dragon King’s words. Judging by the sadness in his voice, it seemed like he wasn’t just saying it while intoxicated with the atmosphere.
Suddenly, something a bishop said passed through my mind. They said that when a new head grows, you won’t have to deal with Navardose anymore. Ronan’s head turned quickly.
An attitude that differs from the rumors and a suspicious statement that he is no longer wary of her. Contact with Nebula Clazier. Before long, he had processed the given information and started swearing.
“Nimi. “That crazy lizard.”
“Ro, Ronan? “What’s wrong with you all of a sudden?”
Asher asked in a confused voice. Instead of answering, Ronan clenched her fists. Those twin heads were preparing for war with Navarre. By receiving the power of bald heads.
‘Is this why I’m not on guard?’
It seemed like they were wondering what to do with Mimul, but ended up joining hands to help themselves become stronger. What Ronan is seeing now is an event that did not occur in her previous life.
It was said that the contact with Adren itself was a special measure taken by Abel due to the recent bad situation in the church. Now that I think about it, this f*cking happened because of me.
‘It’s dangerous.’
I honestly thought that Navarre could be dangerous. Even though her Dragon King himself was of lower rank than her, her story changed if she received the power of her magical star. It was an alien force that deviated from reason.
Moreover, the Dragon King, as his name suggests, was the king of dragons and the lord of Adren. The fact that he cooperated with the church meant that there was a high possibility that his subordinates and servants would also become attached to the bald believers.
This was a very boring situation. I had no idea what to do first. I never thought they would be included from the very top.
Ronan was groaning from a creeping headache. Seaaaa… Suddenly, the light of the magic circle that the Dragon King was stepping on disappeared. The bishop who was talking with the Dragon King opened his mouth.
“That’s it. “We will continue with the rest tomorrow.”
It seemed like today’s ritual had come to an end. The Dragon King, who was staring at the sky, folded his wings and lowered his head. His third head, covered in white scales, was already half grown.
【I can still do more-】
【It’s a shame.】
Both heads ate their appetites. The fanatics bowed their heads and showed respect. The sparkle that filled the night air was slowly fading away.
The believers began to gather up the tools used in the ritual. Ronan, who was thinking about what to do next, finally made a decision. His outstretched index finger pointed at the believers.
“Asher. Let’s wait for now and follow those bastards.”
“W-what?”
“Oh, I can’t see your fingers. “I was talking about those fanatics.”
“Well, I understood that from context…”
Asher’s eyes widened. Schlieffen was silently looking at the faces of the believers one after another. Ronan continued.
“Those bastards aren’t going to sleep either. There is a high probability that there is a sleeping quarters in this tower. “If you search there, won’t you find something?”
If no clues were found, he was planning to torture them. At least we can get information about one of the Alibrihena cult leaders.
The problem is that there are quite a lot of people and they are highly skilled, so it seemed like they would have to be assassinated or defeated individually. Since there was no solution, Asher and Schlieffen had no choice but to accept Ronan’s opinion.
Asher took a deep breath and was in the car trying to move the group. Suddenly, a bishop stretched out his hand towards the three. The sound of chanting came out between his parted lips.
“Wind Spear.”
“What…!”
Ronan’s eyes widened. In an instant, small magic circles were drawn in front of the bishop’s hand, and dozens of spears made of wind were shot towards the three people. Asher took a deep breath.
“Hi…!”
“Shit.”
Ronan bit his lower lip. There was too much to avoid. Even if it meant getting caught, it had to be cut or removed. He was just about to pull out the hilt of the sword.
Whoosh! Schlieffen quickly swung his sword. His movements were quick and skillful, as if he had been waiting for them in advance. The strong wind that blew along Geomro slightly distorted the trajectories of the spears.
“you···!”
“It felt like something like this. “He kept glancing this way.”
Schlieffen said. Whoa! The spears of wind that were supposed to hit each other passed by the bodies of the three people with a gap of a sheet of paper between them. Unlike the act of blocking or cutting, I did not feel uncomfortable. To people’s eyes, dozens of spears of wind appeared to be crossing the empty space.
“…I guess it was my mood.”
The bishop who had cast the spell shrugged his shoulders. The Dragon King also looked at him strangely. He said displeasedly.
【now-】
【What are you doing?】
“Forgive my rudeness. “It’s no different, I felt like there was a sign of popularity nearby…”
The bishop got down on one knee and admitted his mistake. Meanwhile, his gaze remained on the spot where he had fired the spear a moment ago. He must have felt something.
【Haha, that can’t be possible. Who dares disobey my command-】
【You mean hanging around near the tower?】
The Dragon King laughed. The confident voice almost felt arrogant. Asher, who was crying as if he was going to commit suicide at any moment, opened his mouth.
“Ro, Ronan. “I think we should avoid it for now.”
“···okay.”
Ronan clicked his tongue. I couldn’t deny that it was a really close situation. Her invisibility wasn’t gone and she was hiding her presence, but she almost got caught out of sheer intuition.
‘Plague. ‘I guess someone is not a bishop.’
I felt like I needed to move the location first to prevent the same thing from happening again. Ronan, who was thinking about where to go, pointed to a window two floors down.
“Let’s go in first. “I think we can just wait there and follow him.”
“Yes. okay.”
There was only one staircase leading from the rooftop to the lower floor. Asher slowly moved the group. Fortunately, the bishop’s gaze did not follow.
They re-entered the tower through a window. There was no one inside.
“···Huh!”
dump. Asher, who had made everyone land, fell to the floor. My small body was trembling. He mumbled, wiping his eyes.
“Lord, I thought I was going to die…”
“Good job. “You are the best.”
Ronan gave a thumbs up. In fact, this kid did it all. I wondered if this was the Asher I knew, maintaining his telekinetic powers even as the wind grazed his cheek. Ronan, who had been patting his back, turned to Schlieffen.
“You should be the second best. “Thanks to you, I didn’t get caught.”
“Best is a word that refers to only one thing.”
Schlieffen answered dryly. Normally, I would have scolded him using a vulgar analogy, but I didn’t do that today. If he hadn’t dealt with it, he would definitely have been found out. He was probably beaten to death by the Dragon King and his fanatics and fell to his death.

“good. Then, let’s rest for a bit and then move on…”
“found. “You rats.”
Ronan, who was giggling, was about to say something. Suddenly, a familiar voice came from behind. Goosebumps ran up my spine, as if cold water had been poured on me.
They slowly turned their heads. A middle-aged man wearing a white robe was standing in front of the stairs about twenty steps away. He was the bishop who shot the Wind Spear at the group.
“I know it’s there. “Show yourself obediently.”
Dozens of magic circles were already spread out in front of him. The same wind spears and swords that had been fired a moment ago were sticking their heads out like moray eels.
Although the invisibility spell was working, it seemed certain that he had been discovered. Ronan, who suddenly felt dispirited, raised her head and saw a glowing magic circle sticking to her ceiling. As expected, the wind weapons were sticking their heads out.
‘f*ck.’
Ronan chewed his lower lip. Although he looked very suspicious, he seemed to have been following along. The divine protection of stars shimmering in bizarre colors surrounded his body.
“···Release it.”
“Ro, Ronan…!”
“hurry.”
He sighed and kicked Asher’s leg. The invisibility magic was lifted and the three people were revealed. The corner of the bishop’s mouth went up in a frown.
“I have a good feeling. “If all three didn’t show up, I was going to shoot them right away.”
Ronan said nothing. He was just quickly rolling his head and eyes, examining the situation. She seemed to have come down alone, as there were no signs of presence around her.
“What I felt earlier definitely wasn’t foreboding. “You don’t look like a servant of the Dragon King, so what are you doing here?”
The bishop continued. If they did anything suspicious, they would immediately fire their weapons.
After making his decision, Ronan switched cores. The texture of her mana changed and her sparkling mana began to bloom over her shoulders. He opened her mouth.
“We are allies, Bishop. “I was forced to follow orders from Alibrihe.”
Ronan answered without changing his expression. The bishop raised his eyebrows when he heard the name Alibrihe.
“what? “Alibrihe?”
“That’s right. He told me to secretly check to see if anything bad happened during the meeting with the Dragon King Ajidahaka. “I guess you’re worried because it’s the same dragon and you know its nature.”
The bishop’s eyes widened. He knew too much information about the church to be a simple spy. His status as a bishop and his contact with the Dragon King. Even to the point that Alibrihe is a dragon.
Moreover, when I looked closely, I noticed that the black-haired young man had a presence that was unique to Nebula Clage. He tilted his head.
“···Is that true?”
“yes. “You told me never to get caught, but you don’t get away with it.”
“It’s hard to believe. “I heard you personally declare that you will not be interfered with by anyone except the religious leader during your vacation.”
“I just told it like it is. “Maybe you’re feeling old now that you’re here in Adren.”
Ronan said. Asher and Schlieffen felt admiration as they looked at his motionless face. How can a person lie so well?
“Uhm, well…”
The bishop sighed. The light from the magic circles faded.
Ronan let out a silent joy. Since she didn’t deny the location, it seemed certain that Ali Bry He was here in Adren. Although she didn’t know she was on vacation.
“I still can’t believe it. I can’t even feel the power of the stars from the two behind them. “Please tell me your branch and name.”
The bishop who was worried opened his mouth again. Ronan quickly exchanged glances with the group and smiled sadly.
“That is troubling. “It was all just a lie.”
“what?”
The bishop frowned. At the same time, Ronan pulled the hilt of his sword. He tried to cast the spell again, but La Mancha’s sword body was already stained with sunset color. Faaaa! For a moment, there seemed to be a flash of light, and the bishop’s new form was pulled in front of Ronan.
“what···!”
The bishop’s eyes widened. The slash that flew with her scarlet tail cut through the star’s protection like tofu. Sgak! A red line was drawn over his neck. Without any time to resist, the detached head rose into the air.
“Hey, invisible hand!”
Asher stretched out his hand and chanted a spell. The torso that was falling, the head that was flying in the sky, and the fresh blood that was gushing like a fountain stopped in the air. Ronan breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that there was no blood around him.
“Well done.”
“Ugh!”
Ronan patted Asher on the back. It was still a time when the perfect crime was possible. He was planning on escaping anyway, but if he left a trace, there was a chance he would be chased faster. Asher asked a question.
“What should I do with this body?”
“We should crush it so that its form is unrecognizable and throw it out the window. “Just hold on to it.”
“uh?”
Asher tilted his head. Ronan swung his sword without even having a chance to say anything. Sigh! The body that was floating in the air disintegrated into hundreds of pieces. It didn’t fall because I was holding on to it with telekinesis. Ronan, who finished his work in an instant, nodded his head.
“good. Now ball it up and throw it out. “As far away as possible.”
“Hey, hey!”
His tone was calm, as if he was asking me to just get him a glass of water. Asher’s face turned pale.
Just imagining it made me feel nauseous, but there was no way to do it now. It was at this moment that he was about to begin the process of making the world’s most disgusting meat dumplings. The moonlight coming through the window disappeared for a moment.
“hmm?”
The three people turned their heads at the same time. And it just froze. One of the Dragon King’s heads was turned upside down, looking at them. There was silence, as if time had stopped.
【Why are you-】
【Are you here?】
The Dragon King said. The woman’s voice seemed to come from far above her, so only the left side of her head seemed to be down.
【I clearly told you not to come out. No way, everything-】
【Have you seen it?】
Ronan cursed under his breath. The sound of my plan falling apart seemed to linger in my ears. After a brief pause, he opened his mouth.
“Uh, I mean. “I couldn’t sleep so I wandered around…”
【It’s sad. The heroes who defeated the evil demon dragon, and those whom I personally praised-】
【I can’t believe I had to send it like this.】
The Dragon King who cut off Ronan’s horse sighed softly. Suddenly his mouth opened up and down. Particles of light were gathering and condensing deep in the throat.
“···Bounce.”
Ronan said. He lifted Asher, who was sitting down, and turned around at the same time. It was the moment Ronan and Schlieffen ran out and threw themselves down the stairs. Quaaaaa! A torrent of light poured down like a tidal wave and swept through the hallway.
“Khaaaaaa!!”
Asher let out a scream that felt like his soul was going to be ripped out. Golden rays broke through the opposite wall and spread out into the western sky. The Dragon King’s voice rang loudly.
【I say it! All compatriots and servants residing in Sky Tower and Adren must obey my orders!】
【Catch the intruder!】
