Chapter 285
“Achoo!”
Son OhGong sneezed and rubbed his nose.
“Who’s talking about me?”
Then, scratching his itchy ears, Son OhGong stopped.
“Are you sure about this?”
The failed sneeze made his ears itch. His animal instinct told him that someone was talking about him.
But whether it was true or not…
Chi-.
Son OhGong lifted his head and looked up at the corrosive liquid dripping from above.
“Hey, Vritra.”
Krrrr-.
The flickering eyes, intense red in color. He was still on guard against Son OhGong.
It seemed like he could breathe fire at any moment.
A blue sky. A green land.
In the midst of it all was a massive crater, which was Vritra’s home.
“Don’t look at me like that. I really didn’t come to fight.”
Son OhGong did his best to contain the urge to raise his staff and confront him. He wanted to fight Vritra again right at this moment. But that wasn’t the purpose of his visit.
-If you didn’t come to fight, why did you come all the way here?
“To stop the division.”
-The division?
As if wanting a more detailed explanation, Vritra stood up and looked down at Son OhGong.
-What does that mean?-
“I don’t have the ability to explain it accurately. I’m just conveying it to you.”
-Does that mean there’s someone higher than the Great Sage, Heaven’s Equal?
“Not higher, but beside.”
After answering with such certainty, OhGong’s eyes rolled from side to side, incredulous.
“Isn’t that right?”
-Well, whatever it is, it seems someone else has said it.
“Yes, that’s correct.”
-However, I’m not sure. Division? It’s not a word I understand much.
Krrrr-.
Vritra lowered his head, and his eyes reflected those of OhGong.
-All I know is that you have hurt us.
It had been thousands of years since the Dragons stopped acting in the Tower.
And Vritra was the leader who had brought those Dragons from the darkest places.
It was natural for him to be on guard against Son OhGong.
“Is that why you’ve allied with Foolish Chaos?”
Son OhGong smiled as if he knew everything and looked at Vritra.
Vritra didn’t deny it.
To fight against Humans.
After waking up from a long slumber, he had allied with Foolish Chaos and decided to fight against humans.
But…
“Didn’t I tell you before? His goal.”
-I heard. Although I still don’t fully believe it.
Foolish Chaos was neither Human nor Dragon, he was another being.
His existence couldn’t be explained within the framework of the Races. Vritra had allied with Foolish Chaos because he wasn’t Human and had decided to fight against Humans.
But…
-If his goal is the destruction of everything without distinction of Races, then we can’t ally with him.
Vritra also doubted Foolish Chaos.
“We have no intention of fighting against you. In fact, we are closer to wanting to ally with you.”
Son OhGong continued with the words that were conveyed to him.
“We are going to capture the Dragon Hunter.”
The Dragon Slayer.
The one responsible for the initial conflict between Humans and Dragons.
Despite that, he was an existence like that of an Immortal, someone no one could kill.
This is the man that OhGong promised to capture.
-The Dragon Slayer…
A word that couldn’t be easily spoken.
Vritra exhaled a hot breath.
His red eyes gleamed, and Vritra rose with his massive body.
-I can understand that Foolish Chaos is not trustworthy. I also suspect him.
Gru-.
A powerful magical energy emanated.
Son OhGong felt the anger in the energy emanating from Vritra.
-But that doesn’t mean I trust you.
The sky turned red, and the ground began to burn.
Son OhGong reached out for his staff carried on his back.

“It’s just as he said, indeed.”
“First, have a conversation. Of course, it probably won’t end in just a conversation.” (YuWon)
If it was a place where they should not fight under any circumstances from the beginning, YuWon wouldn’t have sent Son OhGong.
The Dragons’ anger towards Humans had accumulated for thousands of years.
And YuWon didn’t believe that a few words could reverse the situation.
And that’s why… He could send Son OhGong for this matter.
“So…”
Sometimes, when verbal communication doesn’t work, non-verbal communication is needed.
“Let’s break some things, and then we’ll talk.”

“Indra is not immortal.”
Indra.
A High-Ranker Player, Sixth in the Ranking.
He was said to be an Immortal being, capable of manipulating Lightning Attribute Magic and known as an Immortal just like Son OhGong.
However.
That information was incorrect.
“He only has multiple lives, he is not immortal in the sense of not dying, but of resurrecting after death.”
Step, step.
YuWon, Zeus, and Harggan continued walking.
Behind them, the building they had just been in towered above them.
As they moved, Zeus continued his explanation of Indra to YuWon.
“So capturing him is not impossible.”
In the Ranking Management Office, Indra was ranked sixth in the ranking.
In terms of destructive power, Indra was comparable to Surt.
And furthermore, he was immortal.
It was an absurd ranking.
“The reason Surt has a high ranking is because of his Fire, his enormous body, and his strength comparable to Heracles.”
Being immortal was extremely advantageous in a battle.
If you can fight without fear of death, your strategies and tactics are greatly expanded. Plus, even after defeat, you can expect another encounter.
Naturally, that would have a great impact on the Ranking.
Despite that, Indra’s Ranking was two levels below Surt’s.
That’s why Zeus had doubts about Indra’s Immortality.
“However, it is surprising.”
Zeus turned his head to YuWon and looked at him.
“Although I have something I want, I didn’t think you would be willing to collaborate on this.”
Zeus had noticed that YuWon didn’t get involved in unnecessary matters and didn’t use his power unless necessary.
But now, YuWon approached him to collaborate on capturing Indra.
There was no reason.
He probably wanted power like him, or maybe he wanted something else.
“Is there any reason why we have to kill him?”
It was a question with a background.
YuWon nodded. There was no need to keep it a secret, and he had enough reasons.
“It’s because of his title.”
“Title?”
“Indra, the ‘Dragon Slayer’.”
Dragon Slayer.
That was the title given to one who had killed countless Dragons, just like Heracles, the Giant Slayer.
In other words, Indra was considered a natural enemy and an enemy of the Dragon Race.
“So what you’re saying is that you’re going to capture him for the Dragon people?”
“Something like that.”
“I understand what you’re saying, but I don’t understand why.”
Although they had the same goal, the reasons they fought for were completely different.
If YuWon’s answer was true, there was only one thing he wanted.
“Are you saying you want to achieve world peace?”
Humans and Dragons.
Two conflicting races, and the starting point where Dragons began to harass humans. YuWon wanted to put an end to that.
“It’s not peace, it’s the preservation of power.”
“Power?”
“Do you think Foolish Chaos is just one entity?”
YuWon’s words made Zeus, who was about to lead the march, stop. He felt as if he had been struck with a hammer on the head.
Foolish Chaos. Where it came from, what it was, what its purpose was. He knew nothing about that unfathomable existence.
YuWon’s words, hinting that such an existence was not unique, were shocking enough to leave Zeus in a state of shock.
After a brief moment of pause, Zeus started moving again.
“To what extent do you know about him?”
It was a worrying question.
At this moment, Son OhGong was the only one who knew information about it.
It was not convenient for many people to know. Therefore, he had tried to hide it as much as possible…
“He will bring down the Tower.”
From now on, it wouldn’t be bad to gradually reveal information.
“Besides that, I don’t know much. I don’t know what kind of being he is.”
It was not a lie.
Even YuWon and his companions, who had been fighting against the Outer Gods in the Tower and the Outer World for a long time, did not understand those entities.
“How boring.”
The response was not what Zeus expected, so he closed his mouth disdainfully.
How much longer did they walk like this?
How much more time passed?
Crack~
A presence was felt among the bushes.
Tsutsutsutsu.
The Arcane Power emanating from Zeus enveloped the bodies of YuWon, Harggan, and himself.
The golden Arcane Power created a barrier that isolated them from the outside. In an instant, the Arcane Power absorbed all colors, separating the interior and the exterior.
“I found him.”
A converging presence that grew stronger.
Along the opened path in the forest, hundreds of Players moved.
People with faces painted in a peculiar manner, like Native Americans, and blue hair tied up. Among them, there were also Ranker Players.
It was surprising that there were many players on Floor 79 and even Rankers among them.
It was a power comparable to that of a medium-sized Guild.
“Dragon Hunters.”
Dragon Hunter.
That was Indra’s title.
Furthermore…
“Are they Indra’s Tribe?”
They were like a kind of tribe that served and worshipped Indra.
‘Rankers and Players fighting alongside Indra against the Dragons. They are not registered as a Guild, but their number and power easily surpass most major Guilds.’
The existence of Indra and his tribe distanced Humans and Dragons. That’s why Odin had long considered Indra and his tribe a nuisance.
However, that didn’t mean he could do anything about it.
“Indra and his tribe are not just an ordinary Guild or group. They are more like a kind of religion, similar to the Heavenly Demon Cult.”
The Heavenly Demon Cult was a religious group centered around the Heavenly Demon.
Their cohesion was much stronger than that of those who gathered for interests. To stop them, they would have to completely eliminate Indra’s Tribe, down to the last root.
But considering their number, that was something difficult to achieve.
So, the only way would be to kill Indra, their leader, but it was known to be impossible.
Externally, Indra was an immortal existence.
“In a few days, there will be a battle with Indra’s Tribe.”
Upon Zeus’s words, YuWon turned to look at him.
“Are you trying to lure Indra?”
“Yes.”
It had been a long time since Indra had been active.
And that also applied to Indra’s Tribe.
But now the situation was different.
“It probably won’t be that difficult. The dragons have also started to move.”
Zeus spoke as he observed Indra’s Tribe moving noisily.
“They are the proof of that.”
The fact that Indra’s Tribe was moving meant that Indra had also started to move.
Since he had found Indra’s Tribe as he had thought, it wouldn’t be that difficult to lure Indra.
But…
“It’s strange.”
YuWon felt something uneasy about Indra’s Tribe in front of him.
“Although they are a simple-living Indra’s Tribe, gathering such power without any dragons appearing…”
Swish.
YuWon’s eyes turned red.
The direction in which Indra’s Tribe was heading.
At the far end, he saw a familiar face.
“It seems they have another enemy.”
He thought they were preparing to fight someone else.
And that opponent, of course…
“Asura…”
The natural enemy of Indra’s Tribe.
The (Battle God (鬪信)) of the (Three Heads and Six Arms (三頭六臂)). He stood in front of Indra’s Tribe in the distance.
