Episode 397
Chapter 6
Cell came out with the dragons.
But is this just a coincidence?
At that moment, the vampires that had been forcibly teleported by Jack were entering the village.
Their appearance was different from before.
Sure, most of them were skinny and ill-armed before, but the thousands of vampires in front of me now were clearly healthy.
To anyone who looked at them, they looked like they had been training for decades.
They stopped in their tracks at the same time, looking at the four dragons, including Cell.
The four dragons, who had no intention of hiding their identities or doing so, had horns growing from their foreheads.
Not the small, protruding horns that grow on the heads of trolls, but the long, spiral horns that symbolize real dragons.
Not polymorphic, but a tolerant form.
The horns are a symbol of the dragon that can never be replicated in a model.
The vampires noticed it.
Actually, it was strange that I didn’t recognize it. If I didn’t recognize it, then I wasn’t fully conscious.
“Dr… … dragon?”
“……oh my god.”
Following the panicked voices, most of the vampires grabbed their weapons with trembling hands and took up a fighting stance.
It happened almost instantly.
The sudden confrontation, the fight, whether you win or lose, that was meaningless. This was a demonstration of will. At least the current vampires were not losers, but those preparing for a new era.
The loser’s mentality I used to have is long gone.
In line with that, the dragons behind the cell were also trying to raise their mana.
-stop.
As if they had made a promise at the quiet words of the cell, the four dragons sank their mana.
The cell turned around as it was.
The direction was exactly west.
The Kingdom of Milos is in the east, so why is it in the west?
The cell had a place to go.
He said he had visited every dragon currently living on the continent, but not all of them.
One.
I couldn’t find even one.
A dragon in the Boaz Marquisate of the Tulcan Empire.
I had to bring him.
I heard from Jack that he was one of the dragons that became the Half-Blood material in his past life.
The rest of the dragons turned around as well, following the cell that turned around.

Of course, the momentum did not wane.
Dan Brown asked Cell, who was fiddling with the ring on his left index finger.
“Are you just going to leave?”
-sure?
“If we continue like this, there may be misunderstandings. But shouldn’t we let them know that this is different from that Emperor?”
The cell turned its head.
-Why should I tell you?
“yes?”
-Are you afraid of misunderstandings and hostility?
“… … .”
-All the ‘Ohwang’ who lived in the Demon Forest are dead. Many of them watched the boss kill them. That fact is an unchangeable truth.
“But I have to tell you that the remaining dragons are different from the Five Emperors… … .”
Cell shook his head.
-What does it matter?
“……yes?”
Cell wants to follow in Jack’s footsteps and stand at the top of the world.
Because Jack wanted it that way and Cell himself wanted it that way.
A path where you have to go up one step at a time and only look forward.
That’s the length of the peak.
As you walk down that path, you don’t even think about looking back, and even if you do, you have to explain everything in detail and convince others.
Cell had no desire or intention to do such a thing.
If you have enough power to not dare to be hostile, then such things will quickly disappear.
It was just not enough now.
Strength.
-I don’t beg for understanding. Not now, not ever.
Cell slowly looked up at the sky.
azure.
Jack, standing at the top of the sky, doesn’t care about what other people think.
To be exact, I just don’t care.
Who could possibly interfere with such a jack?
In the end, the map of the world and all of its rules are decided and divided according to Jack’s gestures and tastes.
Yeah, that’s the point.

The peak of the sky.
-That’s what it means to stand there.
So the cell took a step forward.

The four dragons following behind Cell again thought.
It’s definitely different.
Even though he has Lord’s blood in him, he still feels that oppressive.
That strange atmosphere.
Although he was quite different from the monster known as Jack, one thing was certain.
The future of this new load called Cell is very bright.
She will reign by force and be the center of all dragons.
It was almost like a prophecy, a certainty.

“How are you doing?”
Today’s date is December 25th.
I was in the Mantis County of the Kingdom of Milos.
Now that it’s under the jurisdiction of the Marquis of Valanti, its exact name is simply Mantis, an outlying city, but what does that matter?
My maternal uncle, Dennis Gunnar, who was standing in front of me, answered with a puzzled expression.
“I’ve been doing this job as a proxy for a long time, so of course it’s worth it. But.”
Maybe it’s because I’ve been doing something similar to politics for a long time, even though I’m a mid-level master.
My maternal uncle seems to be quick-witted.
“I don’t think you came here to say that. Have you made up your mind now?”
I looked at my uncle in silence.
“I thought it was strange from the beginning. Take the warriors of the Taoist temple and go here… … Take charge… … It was like a grace period with no set period of time.”
My uncle’s eyes narrow.
“If there is a grace period, what kind of grace period is it? Isn’t there only one? I am worried about how to ‘dispose’ of me. Is that right?”
First of all, there was no answer.
“You’re going to found a country? And with the name Milos at that.”
This was also not answered.
“I heard that this is a country without a king. There are still matters that have not been resolved, so one cannot sit on the throne until those matters are resolved… Is that correct?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
“The most important thing here is bloodline. Is that right?”
“you’re right.”
“I have the same blood as you. My children will be your cousins. The two of you have the same blood as me. Elizabeth also has the same blood, but since she is a child you cherish so much, you will change her name later, and she will naturally become ‘royal.’”
It’s simple.
Is my uncle my ally?
It’s true that you felt fear of me.
I saw myself fighting Arthur, wiping out an entire island, causing a massive tidal wave, and then stopping the tidal wave, something that almost seems like something out of a novel.
However, that does not mean that they are perfect allies.

I know very little about my maternal uncle and have never had a relationship with him.
So, is my uncle my enemy?
Not now, perhaps.
But who knows what will happen later.
And one more thing.
Is my uncle an obstacle to what I want to do?
My maternal uncle is a kind of variable.
A variable that may become a problem someday, even if not immediately, in the distant future.
Because, as I said before, we share the same bloodline.
“I could be the seed of rebellion, right?”
That’s quite correct.
That’s true, but there’s a bit of a misunderstanding.
I tried to say something, but my uncle was faster.
“You must have decided that you must kill me. That must be why you came here. I know that there is such a spell among black magic.”
“What kind of magic is it?”
“A magic that erases memories.”
“… … .”
“My children are still young. There is no need to kill them. I wish you would just erase their memories and let them live comfortably. Wouldn’t it be enough for me to kill them alone?”
I scratched my chin for a moment.
From my uncle’s point of view, it would have been a very reasonable inference, and the answer he came up with would have been quite plausible.
But you know it a little vaguely.
“I think there is some misunderstanding.”
“misunderstanding?”
“It’s true that I told my uncle to go to this territory because I didn’t know exactly what to leave for him, but that’s not what happened after that.”
“no……?”
“Why would I kill my uncle? He didn’t even hit the back of my head.”
“… … .”
“And, in the past, the warriors of the Taoist temple were called like this. Executors.”
My uncle, with a slightly timid expression, nods his head.
He spoke slowly.
“In the world I am trying to create, there is no ‘abolition of private soldiers.’”
My uncle’s hand stops slightly.
“There is no abolition of private soldiers?”
“No, there isn’t. No matter how much you advocate the rule of law, if the balance of power is not right, then that will be a problem in its own right.”
“… … .”

“But if we completely eliminate private soldiers, wouldn’t that just take away all the useless jobs and hinder the development of Mana users? The checks and balances shouldn’t be meaningless. So of course, the lord should have private soldiers. But.”
“but?”
“We must not let things get out of hand, and we must not let anyone try to cross the line. My maternal uncle should take charge of one axis of the Hwang Moo-rye organization.”
Then he raised his hand slightly.
A small crystal ball held in my hand.
My uncle, who was looking at the crystal ball, had his eyes sparkling.
“I said it was a dragon disease.”
I didn’t put any of the 500 Dragon Tooth Soldiers into subspace or anything like that for even a single moment while coming here.
Maybe it’s just that I walked from the forest of demons.
That means I always had a high-circle mana user, Yong-a-byeong, with me, like he was my servant.
Naturally, the world was in an uproar once again with the appearance of the Dragon Tooth Disease.
My quick-witted uncle seemed to notice and smiled faintly.
therefore.
“That dragon’s teeth will become the power of Aveiro, that is, the ‘prime minister’.”
That’s right. The basis of the system is checks and balances. Even if a country is unified, there must be checks and balances within it. Aveiro will do politics from the position of prime minister. Since he lacks personal power, he must have this much. The next prime minister and the next prime minister will be the same.
I believe in Aveiro.
I believe that the guy’s natural strength is too weak.
Now that we’re on the subject, if it weren’t for me, Aveiro would have died a hundred times over.
There were probably various ways to die. Burning, poisoning, assassination, strangulation disguised as suicide, etc.
Originally, if someone had that level of ability, there would be a lot of people targeting them.
He’ll have a lot of work to do in the future, so instead of giving him 10 or 20 Death Knights, why don’t you give him all 500 Dragon Tooth Soldiers? He’ll be able to use them comfortably.
If you’re going to give strength, give it hotly.
“You can keep the name Gunnar. You can use the name of the Do-Gwan as the imperial military organ and catch and kill those who try to climb up. But this is called a rebellion.”
There was a pause.
It’s so absurd that I can’t even laugh. The rebellion I’m talking about here is the part where my maternal uncle first described himself as the seed of rebellion.
“Even if you are from the Taoist school and know the history of the glorious era, is it because you only read about it in books? I think you underestimate the power of dragons.”
