Episode 201
New Dragon (1)
The area in front of the Basque workshop was packed with people.
Groan groan-
“I don’t know if I can trust you with this sword.”
Theo scratched the back of his head at the sight beyond the carriage.
Although I heard that the number of people has increased significantly since I became a sorcerer.
But I still thought this was too much.
Above all else.
<“I swung my sword and everything fell.” The swords of the Yacha Castle are all here.>
.
.
Not only were there posters and banners tacked up in a very showy manner, but there were also flags.
His face was stuck everywhere.
Even the product packaging had Theo’s face drawn on it.
The sight of her smiling broadly while looking this way was very awkward for Theo.
“… … .”
You must be rowing very hard because the water has come in.
Armor and weapons are okay, but what about cosmetics and school supplies?
The problem was the people who bought it and thought it was good.
It seemed like anything with Theo’s drawings or photos on it sold like hotcakes.
“… …Should I just give up and go back?”
He’s holding out because he has a stake in those products, otherwise he would have told them to quit long ago because they’re all sold out.
‘Let’s just go back. Ugh.’
I had a very strong ominous feeling that if I went out of the carriage I would get swept up in the crowd.
So Theo tried to talk to the groom, thinking he would just come back next time.
“Huh? Where have I seen that carriage?”
“The inscribed sentence is a bit unusual. It seems to be a direct descendant of Ragnar.”
“That’s it! It’s the seal of the Sogaju!”
“What? Really?”
“Yes! I’m sure!”
“Then the person riding over there is the Lord Soga!”
Groan, groan, murmur-
Crowds began to gather one by one as they recognized the carriage Theo was riding in.
“Oh, my lord!”
Like Theo, the groom swung the reins hard, holding his spine that had become chilled. No, he tried to.
“Gyaaaah! Lord! Please give me your autograph!”
“Hey, don’t push! Whoaaaaah!”
“Face! Let me see your handsome face!”
The carriage couldn’t move forward because people were so crowded together.
The more this happened, the more people clung to it like leeches.
Later, he was ready to open the door and drag Theo out.
‘Eww!’
A hand was coming in through the slightly open window.
It was just like a zombie I saw in a movie.
Theo was more afraid of these people than of the Gwangryongje.
‘Save me!’
Clunk! Clunk!
The carriage door shook as if it would fall down at any moment.
Theo, stuck in the corner, shivered.
* * *
“Huh? Why do you have such a tired face?”
Kirshon tilted his head as he watched Theo trudging into the office in rags.
“No… … haha… … hahahahaha… … .”
“… … ??”
But Kirshon’s face was filled with question marks.
Theo couldn’t bring himself to tell her that he had suffered because of the large crowds outside.
Even though the expression was strong, they were people who supported me anyway.
‘Thanks to that, I was caught and it took me a while to escape… … .’
Talking about that here won’t be of any help.
Theo sighed lightly and glanced around the office.
“Something… seems to have changed a lot?”

“Oh, this? Hehehe! I’ve been making a lot of money lately, so I’ve been trying out some gold. Thanks to that, every single day is so much fun! Hahahahaha!”
‘Geumchil’ wasn’t just a fancy word. It was real.
Kirshon’s ten fingers and arms were dazzlingly adorned with gold jewelry, and around his neck hung six necklaces of different designs.
There were more than a dozen earrings dangling from the ceiling, and it looked like I was looking at an indigenous person in the jungle.
“… … .”
Interior items such as picture frames, chandeliers, lamps, chests of drawers, and even the carpets on the floor were sprinkled with gold dust so that they sparkled.
Wherever Theo turned his head, he was surrounded by gold and gold dust, to the point where he couldn’t tell if he was in the blacksmith shop or in another world.
Don’t your eyes hurt?
‘Wow, there are high elves who love gold so much.’
I knew that Kirshon had a personality that was on a different level from that of regular elves, but wouldn’t it be safe to say that he’s almost a mutant?
“I guess you’ll be dyeing your hair golden soon.”
“Huh? How did you know that? I already made a reservation at the hair salon for tomorrow morning.”
“… … .”
“This old lady will become very pretty. Phew! She will live buried in gold.”
Theo thought of a duck character swimming in a pile of gold that he had seen back when he was on Earth, but quickly shook his head and said.
“More importantly, why are you here?”
“I would like to request that the sword be repaired.”
“Repair? That kind of dirty work is something the kids below will do… … .”
“Are you reclaiming my portrait rights? I’ve been getting a lot of advertising deals lately.”
“Hahahaha! Our cute grandson, no, if that’s what you want, I’ll even raid the guardian dragon’s nest for you! Our cute grandson, no, what is it that you want?”
“Why are you suddenly disturbing my nest, you pointy-eared bird?”
Kirshon quickly changed his stance and rubbed his hands together like a traitor.
It seemed like he was emphasizing the word ‘grandson’, but he just pretended not to know and took out the Yong Hwal Geom and showed it to me.
“It is a relic of the Taigo Dragon.”
Srrrrung!
The moment he showed his sword, Kirshon’s eyes changed completely.
The eyes of a craftsman, not a nouveau riche.
‘also.’
Theo thought it was a good idea to come here just by looking at her eyes.
“The durability has been greatly reduced?”
Kirshon carefully examined the Yong Hwal Geum with his sharp eyes.
“It also shows signs of having used a lot of force… … It’s a miracle it didn’t break. And yet, the marks left on the blade are sharp.”
Boom!
Woohoo… … .
I lightly tapped the blade with my index finger and it made a dull sound.
“It doesn’t look like something you’ve handled. It looks like it was written by a skilled expert.”
Is it possible to see all of that just by briefly glancing at the state of the sword?
Theo nodded, feeling a little impressed inwardly.
“Yes. It was the sword used by the head of Troyvan. Before that, Emperor Gwangryong forcibly released his power. It seems that the Holy Demon Church also had a hand in it.”
“It’s complicated. Anyway, that’s what fanatics always do.”
Tch!
Kirshon spoke to Theo, not hiding his disgust for the Holy Church.
“It seems like it’ll take quite a while to repair. It’ll also require quite a lot of materials.”
“I’ll give you as much money as you want.”
“Money isn’t important. Skill and sincerity are. I have the skills, so it doesn’t matter.”
Kirshon put the dragon sword down on the table and put the bear’s tail back in his mouth.
Phew-
“The sincerity is another matter. You have to get the materials, and that will be very difficult.”
“What do you mean by material?”
“Ancient Dragon’s Rib.”
“… … !”
“Is it possible? It would be difficult. Even for you.”
Kirshon laughed bitterly, blowing a puff of cigarette smoke into the air.
“How are we going to find them when they’ve been extinct for over a thousand years? It’s not like their fossils are unearthed very often. Unless the Guardian Dragon comes back alive—”
“I will save you.”
“-Difficult, huh?”
“Is just the ribs okay?”
Kirshon nodded with a dumbfounded expression.
“W, well, it would be even better if there were scales or claws or something with the blessings of an ancient dragon… … .”
“Don’t you need things like teeth?”
“If there were… … it would be good… … right?”
“Just write down the necessary ingredients separately.”
“???”
Kirshon’s face was filled with question marks, but Theo smiled and turned his head to one side.
There, Lordbroke appeared in the form of a spirit and covered his upper body with both hands.
“Hey, my friend! What on earth are you trying to do… … ! “
‘Rhodi.’
“Why do you call me so ominous!”
‘Isn’t it about time you started paying for the meal?’
『!!!』
Theo ran his hand along the blade of the Dragon’s Edge, listening to Lordbroke’s shouts in his ears.
Just wait a moment. I’ll revive you somehow.
There was determination in Theo’s eyes.

News of the new dragon selection spread quickly, causing excitement in Winterer.
-So you’re saying you’re going to select a new Laurel Inspector? Is there anyone who can do it?
-Yes, of course! There’s also Amore-sama of the Baek Gap-yonggi-dae, the leader of the Red Sword Knights, and many elders of the Senate… …!
-Isn’t Kinkarnon here too?
-Ah, that’s right! With Kinkarnon’s skills, he’s worthy of being considered a Laurel Swordsman!
There was keen interest in who would take the position vacated by Ed and who would take the newly transformed leadership position.
The names mentioned were all names that could be said to represent Ragnar.
However, there was one problem.
-But is that okay?
-what?
-Kinkarnon, if you sit in the empty seat of the Hangryong, you will inevitably bump into Sogaju.
-Huh? That too… …right, yeah?
Traditionally, the position of the head of the household in Ragnar was closer to that of the acting head of the household.
In other words, it meant that he was of the same level as the Laurel Inspectors, who represented the family.
But what if Kinkarnon takes the throne of the Hangryong?
It meant that Kinkarnon, who was already the eldest son and could threaten Theo’s position at any time, would be given new strength.
So people thought.
Perhaps Kinkarnon will choose one of two options.
First, Kinkarnon makes a grand decision.
It is time to end the boring fight over who will be the 5th or 6th candidate for succession, and give up the will to succeed in order to unite in preparation for the imminent war with the Holy Demon Church.
Second, don’t give up.
Before Theo came along, many people believed without a doubt that Kinkarnon was the next in line for succession.
He also did not give up and said that he would challenge for the position of Hangryong to wait for the next opportunity.
So many people were waiting for Kinkarnon to finish gathering his thoughts and hurry up and make the announcement.
Soon, a new announcement was made from his residence.
However, the content was very short.
As if it contained his will.
-I will challenge for the throne of the dragon.
The competition for power is not over yet.
And it hinted that his ambitions were not over.
But the announcement didn’t end there.
-I will also challenge for the position of Hangryong.
Ansiodo,
-There’s no way I can’t take that position, right?
Lejedo.
As expected, he shouted that the competition for the throne would not end here.
So people’s thoughts became one.
-Then what kind of announcement will Sogaju make?
All eyes were on Dongbaek Palace.
How the bastard of the Return Sword Family lives
