Episode 89
The rumor that Kang Jin-hyeok had brought a dragon spread throughout the village in an instant.
Since the number of villagers was small to begin with, it didn’t take long for all the people to gather.
When the village chief’s house was filled with guests to the point of suffocation.
Kang Jin-hyeok opened his mouth leisurely and spoke his first words.
“Before I tell you my story, I have to make something clear. I don’t live here.”
“I knew that. There’s no way humans could live in such a barren land.”
“No, that’s not what I meant.”
Seeing is believing.
Kang Jin-hyeok took out the numerous items he had brought into his inventory and displayed them on the table.
Kang Jin-hyeok’s items, which seemed out of this world, were enough to attract the attention of the people.
“What are all these?”
“It’s proof that I’m not from this world.”
Silva was surprised to hear that.
“Were you already dead?”
“Don’t send a sane person to Samdocheon.”
“Styx……?”
“Anyway, he’s not dead.”
Kang Jin-hyeok explained to Silva and Su-in that he came from a different dimension than this one.
They didn’t believe it at first, but as they touched the items that Kang Jin-hyeok showed them and saw their functions, they began to believe them little by little.
“An object that emits light without using oil or mana!”
“How does this music come out of this small box?”
To the people, objects made with modern science were more mysterious than artifacts.
As Kang Jin-hyeok put the items back in his inventory to continue the story, Su-in made regretful expressions.
“A human from another dimension… … . I can’t believe it even after seeing it with my own eyes.”
Even Suin, who is far from magic, is astonished.
If the wizards knew, they would probably faint.
“Why are you telling us that?”
If it becomes known that he is a being from another dimension, the Magic Tower will come running at him with its eyes lit up.
The magicians of the Magic Tower were authors who would do anything to advance their magic, so there was a high possibility that they would suffer a miserable fate.
“If I were to explain how I tamed a dragon, I would have to start with that.”
“What I mean is, why do you insist on explaining this to us while revealing such a secret?”
“… … First, listen to the end.”
Kang Jin-hyeok calmed Silva down and began telling his story again.
The story of a dungeon appearing in Kang Jin-hyeok’s dimension and the journey to the Dragon Temple.
And what kind of test did you pass with the old man you met at the Dragon Temple?
As Kang Jin-hyeok’s story progressed, Su-in listened with serious expressions.
Finally, the whole story of how they came to this village and what happened with the dragon was explained.
Kang Jin-hyeok emptied the entire glass of water he had prepared in advance.
“Whew. I’m tired because I’ve been talking so much for a while.”
The people were troubled as to how to take the stories they heard.
I thought he was an extraordinary person, but I never thought he would be a messenger of God, and one who had been marked by the god who created dragons.
No one could have expected that.
“It’s not very realistic. But since you’re the one who made me follow the dragon, I’ll believe you for now.”
Hearing Silva’s words, the rest of the people nodded.
“Yeah, you’re a strong enough person to play with Raoul.”
“Your comrades were also amazing. Especially the arrows you shot in the village.”
“I thought it was a cannon, not an arrow.”
Since doubting them wouldn’t change anything, the people believed Kang Jin-hyeok’s story without much resistance.
“I have listened to your words. Now, please tell me why you have told us this.”
Silva thought that there must have been a reason why Kang Jin-hyeok had created this space to list his life story.
Otherwise, there would be no reason to reveal these secrets to another race with whom one had not known for very long.
“Okay. Then I’ll get right to it without wasting any time.”
Kang Jin-hyeok decided to reveal his intentions as Silva wanted.
Kang Jin-hyeok looked around at the people around him and then opened his mouth.
“Do you guys have any intention of coming over to the dimension I live in?”
A proposal that was more difficult to accept than the stories he had just heard came out of Kang Jin-hyeok’s mouth.
And when he heard that sound, Silva’s eyes became very cold.
Not only Silva, but all the men of the village glared at Kang Jin-hyeok with cold eyes.
“Did you make a deal with a slave trader?”
“yes?”
“It seems like they were trying to lure us in with some far-fetched story.”
The people who had misunderstood something severely showed their fangs and took out their claws.
Lucia whistled calmly even though the sight was right before her eyes.
“Things didn’t go as well as you expected?”
“It’s not just that it’s not going well, it’s that it’s really tangled up.”
When Kang Jin-hyeok was at a loss as to what to say to explain the absurd misunderstanding, Silva gave instructions to the villagers.
“Catch those two right now!”

As soon as Silva finished speaking, the people rushed towards Kang Jin-hyeok and Lucia.
Kang Jin-hyeok didn’t want to get tangled up in the cramped house, so he broke the wall with his fist and escaped.
Following this, Lucia went out, and the villagers also poured out.
“Run away!”
“Catch him!”
Kang Jin-hyeok was going crazy because of the people whose attitudes suddenly changed.
“No, why is a slave trader suddenly popping up?”
“Don’t act like a fool! It’s suspicious that you even came to this unsightly mountain range!”
“The Dragon Temple is a piece of shit!”
The people believed Silva’s guess that it was a story made up to turn them into slaves rather than Kang Jin-hyeok’s words.
It was a tragedy that occurred because Kang Jin-hyeok’s experience was too far from common sense.
“This is it. I wrote an autobiography, but it’s being treated as a fantasy.”
Kang Jin-hyeok dodged Su-in’s fiercely stabbing claws by a width of a paper and laughed.
“You still don’t believe me even though I brought you a dragon?”
“He must have called a wizard to create an illusion!”
“Damn, this doesn’t make any sense.”
The people had already made up their minds.
In that situation, no matter what I said, I couldn’t regain trust.
“What should I do? Should I just run away like this?”
Lucia asked Kang Jin-hyeok, who was running away while jumping over rooftops, about his future plans.
“It would be a shame to just run away… … . Look at that fighting power. Wouldn’t it be perfect for our guild, which is suffering from a talent shortage?”
“What good would it do if you told me that?”
As Lucia said, telling her would have been meaningless.
Right now, we had to decide what to do with the people right away.
“Hello. Wouldn’t it be better to have a job and be provided with food, clothing, and shelter rather than living in a place where it’s difficult to live?”
“Now you show your true colors, you slave trader!”
“… … .”
The one who had come in the fastest swung his sharp claws as if he was dancing without any questions.
Kang Jin-hyeok, who was trying to dodge by pulling back, changed his mind and stopped midway.
Of course, I had no intention of accepting it as is.
Kang Jin-hyeok moved his hand and grabbed Su-in’s arm in the middle of the fight.
“If you don’t believe me, I’ll teach you with my own example.”
Kang Jin-hyeok extended his fist to Su-in, who was flustered after her attack was blocked.
Even though he used as much strength as possible, the person who was hit by the punch was thrown backwards for a long time and fell down.
The people who had been pursuing froze in place when they saw the sight.
“If I were a slave trader, why would I bother to talk to you?”
Kang Jin-hyeok slowly moved his limbs to relax his body that had been stiff from sitting for a long time.
“If I set my mind to it, I can beat up all of you and drag you away. If I show you, you won’t be able to believe it even if you don’t want to, right?”
Kang Jin-hyeok thought that he had no choice but to teach his opponents who did not understand him with their fists.
Lucia heard those words and burst out laughing on the roof.
“Good idea. Should I help you?”
“Okay, just go over there and take a look.”
“yes yes.”
Lucia sat down on the edge of the roof, ready to start watching in earnest.
Kang Jin-hyeok slowly walked towards the tense Su-in.
“If you change your mind now, you will be able to walk on your own two feet.”
“Don’t make me laugh!”
“Do you think you can defeat all of us on your own?”
The people who had been briefly discouraged regained their fighting spirit.
Even though it is a small village, there are more than 50 people gathered now.
The Suin people were proud of their strength compared to that of normal humans, so they believed that if they combined their strength, they would be able to easily defeat someone like Kang Jinhyuk.
The men sent signals to each other by looking at each other and rushed towards Kang Jin-hyeok, targeting his front, back, left, and right.
“You’re the one who can’t walk on two legs!”
The people who rushed in eagerly were enveloped in a golden aura before they could even reach Kang Jin-hyeok.
The aura that emanated from Kang Jin-hyeok’s body surged forward like a storm, forcefully pushing away the people who rushed at him.
“Ugh!”
“what’s this!?”
The people tried to hold out using their dragons, but they couldn’t.
While the people hesitated due to the aura, Kang Jin-hyeok moved his body and attacked them one by one.
“Ugh!”
Kang Jin-hyeok turned around and punched Su-in, who was aiming from behind.
The man who was hit in the stomach lost consciousness and fell out.
“This… this damn human being!”
One of the people being pushed back by Aura threw a dagger at Kang Jinhyeok.
Kang Jin-hyeok could have blocked it with his aura too, but he reached out his hand himself to make a strong impression.
After grabbing the dagger with his bare hands, Kang Jin-hyeok gripped it tightly.
Despite holding the blade himself, Kang Jin-hyeok’s hands were unscathed.
The one that was injured and broken was the dagger that Su-in had thrown.
“Oh, that’s ridiculous.”
Su-in lost his will to fight when he saw the dagger fall to the ground in pieces.
There’s no way you can win against a person like that.
The thought began to take hold in people’s minds, one by one.
Then, one of the people who still had the will to fight stepped forward.
“Everyone, wake up! That’s just a magic trick!”
Kang Jin-hyeok was dumbfounded when he heard Su-in shouting loudly.
“What kind of magic is this, freezing to death magic?”
Even though he was tied up by Lucia and received lectures that were almost like torture, Kang Jin-hyeok was unable to use magic himself.
I was treated as a magician by the beastmen even though I couldn’t even properly cast a magic circle, let alone use magic. It was a complicated feeling that was hard to describe in words.
“Okay. Just believe whatever you want.”
Kang Jin-hyeok shook his head with a resigned expression, having given up on trying to persuade the people with words.
“Let’s see if that sound comes out even after receiving physical therapy.”
If you treat it like a dog on Boknal, you will eventually come to believe it.
Kang Jin-hyeok extended his arm without hesitation and gave a fist to the man who had been inciting people by calling himself a magician.
“Ugh!”
Su-in, who had been hit in the face, fell down with his face sunken in.
After the main topic screamed out loud once, there wasn’t even a twitch of movement.
“Empty carts make the most noise.”
Kang Jin-hyeok let out a faint laugh, as if he had known this would happen.
