Chapter 517
Episode 517 Natural Enemy and Vocation (1)
Elder Mage Yugweed.
You never easily show your emotions in any situation. Even though I, the heir to Earth Magic, may not have lived up to your expectations.
-“Your land is just not ready to bloom yet.”
Even for really basic questions.
-“Wouldn’t a change in thinking be needed there?”
Even in front of enemies.
-“Is that struggle resistance? I will pay my respects.”
You have never acted contrary to your nickname, the gentle giant. But there were people who couldn’t suppress their anger, even you.
“…Shadow mercenaries.”
Yes, it was them.
‘You didn’t tell me until the end…’
After Yugweed left the magic tower, Maia searched through all kinds of books and was able to guess the story behind Yugweed and the shadow mercenaries. It wasn’t a special story.
Stories of just killing and killing.
“You bastards of trash.”
Where the shadow mercenaries pass by, slaughter follows.
Because it was a common thing.
Elder Yugweed had no blood relatives.
It is said that the moment they set foot in the magic tower, all wizards of the magic tower will sever all ties with the outside world, including their families. In Yugweed’s case, the meaning was a little bigger.
‘It’s not light insulation.’
Emerald Hall Information found in an old history book.
『Dawn City Lynas Massacre Case』
Because she was the only survivor in her hometown.
-“I came from Lynas and entered the Magic Tower to live.”
Yugweed’s gentle voice passed by my ears.
Only then did Maia stop recalling.
I focused on the scenery unfolding in front of me.
Is that why?
“What qualifications do you guys have?”
Was he thinking of crossing the land created by Yugweed and coming to the world of adventurers? Did he set foot in this place where demons run rampant? Or did he even gain the trust of this prickly chief?
Maia couldn’t understand.
‘I will not tolerate you.’
You dazzled my eyes with that flashy outfit.
This means that there is no point in trying to hide the shame.
It was the moment when Maia strengthened her will.
“Oh it’s coming!!”
One of the apprentice wizard players shouted.
Player’s field of view.
Jessie was not embarrassed and explained it.
[Copper, the commander of the Golden Fragrance’s 4th Corps, appears.]
“It looks like Paimon’s direct subordinate will appear soon!”
“Get ready.”
Maia and the Curtain.
The two senior wizards immediately prepared to unleash their magic. The place where the gaze is directed is not the crack or magic circle drawn with blood that covered Jeju Island, but the curse of the demon world.
Jesse muttered softly.
“Can a curse collapse? Maybe already….”
Temple Allied General Assembly.
There, too, there was talk about the devil’s ‘curse’.
A curse is the devil’s final struggle.
Therefore, we must be vigilant.
Chief Lee definitely said that.
Even if it is said that it is a brain in a hat.
The tower owner’s insight has not dulled.
The cone hat answered.
-No, it probably hasn’t collapsed yet.
“…Is that so?”
-I don’t completely understand the structure of the curse, but for it to manifest on this scale, a certain price is needed. If it collapses without going through the proper procedures, the caster will also suffer massive internal injuries.
Jesse nodded.
“Then again, the structure is similar to a crack. The collapse rate may be gradually increasing, but the structure cannot suddenly collapse! So, the monster that has appeared now….”
Is this just a preview?
“Patience ends here.”
Maia couldn’t hold back any longer.
Because my patience has reached its limit due to the shadow mercenaries and demons.
Maia raised the burning earth.
Googoo googung.
‘I am different from other seniors.’
Because I had the best teacher, Elder Yugweed.
-Oh, the senior kid is quite a bitch?
He is extremely stingy even to his one and only disciple.
So much so that he received praise from the owner of the cone hat.
Maia’s appearance was flawless.
Top Earth Magic.
『Reverse Earthquake』
The destructive power of the expanding earthquake is condensed into a single point. Therefore, it is difficult to even dare to guess its destructive power. Since it was in the process of appearing, it was inevitable that it would deal a fatal blow to a defenseless enemy.
But nothing happened.
The message did not appear in the players’ field of vision.
Maia also had no sense that she had hit the mark.
‘If I had to compare it, that feeling just now was…’
Maia looked at her trembling fingertips.
“…It’s like hitting a rock with an egg.”
Top owner, who had been complimenting, also paused.
And soon I was able to find the reason.
Because it was revealed gradually.
Maia’s nemesis, Curtain Senior Wizard, muttered.
“Maia, if it’s something like that, I’ll admit it.”
Looking at the huge black pupil.
“This is the dragon from the Dragon Demon Wars…!!”
Dragon, the king of all things.
Their whereabouts so far have been unknown.
Even at the top of the Zero Mountain Range, where they were originally supposed to be. Even on the Arcana continent. Even their flesh and blood elves went out to search, but there was not even a trace of them.
However, if it is a different demon world than the real Arcana Continent.
If the dragons were really headed to the Demon World, it could explain why they were able to hide their whereabouts without even rats or birds knowing. Maia shouted after deciding on the curtain’s fuss.
“Everyone step back!”
Lessons from the Dragon Demon War.
Even the Magic Tower, the strongest military group on the Arcana continent, cannot stand against the King of all things. It was a moment when Maia thought of a way to minimize the current damage.
‘If we move this island as far away from the magic tower as possible…’
Dragon slowly.
No, an evil dragon encroached upon by evil fruits has appeared. It must be the influence of the demon world. An appearance that seems to be stained with a musical instrument on a different level from the evil dragon that appeared on the Arcana continent.
Curtain stuttered.
“I don’t think it’s at a level that can be purified?”
Maia gritted her teeth.
‘As expected, the whole island…!’
The curtain responded to Maia’s shaking magic power.
“Senior Maia? What is that magical power?! “What are you trying to do…!!”
If you manifest that kind of magic.
Beyond the exhaustion of mana, the unfinished circle is shattered.
That was when I quickly tried to dissuade him.
Deep.
“…?!!”
Blood gushed out from the dragon skin that could not even make a scratch with the high-level magic that Maia, the senior wizard, had unleashed through the elder wizard’s teachings. Soon a loud voice is heard.
“You guys over there, get out of the way!”
Maima’s eyebrows twitched reflexively.
Although they covered their entire bodies except their eyes with flashy outfits, they were most likely a group of shadow mercenaries. But the words that came out of their mouths were strange.
“Now it is the turn of Akshan, the devil’s natural enemy!”
“what…? Akshan…?”
*
9 seats.
No, is everyone now an equal hunter of Akshan?
DeChev stuck out his tongue.
“Rock Kid, isn’t there any shame in that?”
It is as big as a mountain, and its cape is fluttering like an upside-down bib. It’s so embarrassing for everyone to see, really. Then, he glanced down at his own clothes…
No matter how many times I looked at this, I couldn’t get used to it.
Tuk.
Wolf put his hand on the top of Decheve’s head.
“I have to get used to it, what should I do?”
“Wolf, anyway, this is a bit…”
“More than anything, our commander-in-chief took the initiative, right?”
Lee Ho-yeol, commander of the Holy War Allied Forces and leader of Akshan.
-“Consider it an honor beyond measure.”
Dwarven blacksmith Walswyle.
He added, handing over the completed Akshan uniform.
-“That cloak is the same as the commander’s, down to the thread.”
Decheve grumbled.
“This is all because the shadow mercenary group lives too arbitrarily, Wolf. Suddenly I have to adhere to the strict rules of the Ak’shan demon hunters. What’s so extreme? Anyway, it’s annoying…”
Wolf lightly ruffled Decheve’s hair.
“It’s too late to complain now. look.”
“what?”
“Our former captain was excited too, right?”
It was a dragon.
In front of them was the king of all things, whom they would not have dared to face head-on if they had been in the past as a shadow mercenary group. But at this moment, my mind was extremely calm.
Krrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrl–
Even in front of the Dragon Fear that is said to subjugate all things.
There was no retreat.
In fact, I was feeling the change even before that.
‘From the portal of the Magic Tower.’
Beyond the portal is Jeju Island, engulfed in a curse.
Maybe that’s why the adventurers couldn’t move easily.
It must have been the ominous pressure felt from the crack.
Alkari approached, dragging his cloak.
“I guess it means that our mental power has fundamentally become stronger, unlike in the past when we were simply swayed by the Shadow God. Of course, what made such growth possible was….”
Wolf answered.
“I guess it’s a natural enemy relationship.”
It goes without saying, but the non-player shadow mercenaries did not have the skill [Relationship with Natural Enemies]. However, there were relics of Akshan that were returned to the rebuilt Akshan.
[Servant of Temperance]
What led the resurrected Akshan was not Hoyeol’s command, but the will of the Akshan relic. The sound of the [Bell of Temperance] became a compass and guided the members’ steps to Jeju Island, and another relic took the role of a natural enemy.
It was thanks to him.
“Just because it’s fast isn’t everything, Kitsch! Swing hard!”
“Shut up, fat guy.”
“what? “This is muscle, not flesh!”
Even in front of the evil dragon, he can show his natural demeanor as a demon hunter.
Even without that, outstanding military power.
It was a shadow mercenary group with even more special abilities.
Now, those people have been reborn as demon hunters.
As you can see.
They were like a disaster to the devil.
An exclamation mark appeared in Jesse’s pupils.
“As expected, it’s amazing!”
The cone hat spat out a second, rare compliment.
-Is this a shadow mercenary group that is worthy even if it is rotten?
… “You even arranged this!”
-…What are you talking about, Chief Lee again?
The conical hat swallowed a laugh.
-How could that author have been so great for a day or two?
.

The news was also delivered to the giant alliance that arrived on Jeju Island late from the Arcana continent. Nam Tae-min’s keen insight, which is close to that of an animal, shone sharply.
“He’s big enough to make that fluttering cloak look small…”
Only three came to mind.
I am Dmitry Lockid.
Then the answer was obvious.
A smile appeared on Nam Taemin’s lips.
“You guys have finally started your activities, right?”
“You’re doing well fighting that crazy monster.”
“Taemin, Miss Leonie. “We still have a long way to go.”
They were three people who had experienced one battle with the old dragon Eunaxus.
Compared to then, he has grown to the point where he has entered the realm of eccentricity and has even been recognized as a transcendental person. I didn’t have the confidence to push the evil dragon that was so determined to kill the dragon.
Hisagi calmly judged the situation.
“But it won’t end here. As stated in the emergency update details, Paimon, a high-ranking demon lord, will definitely appear at the end of Paimon’s domain.”
chuck.
Then he raised his magic spear.
“Our job is simple. Until the Commander-in-Chief arrives in Jeju Island. “We will kill all the monsters pouring in from our line, and if possible, even hold on to Paimon.”
Chireung.
Nam Taemin drew his great sword and sighed.
“It’s an enormous goal… but I don’t think I’ll be proud of achieving it.”
“Do you think you’re the only one who’s upset?”
“What are you? “Why are you fighting all of a sudden?”
Leonie immediately came up with a solution.
“That’s it. In times like this, just drain some blood and your head will clear up.”
“…You just talk crazy like a true berserker.”
The moment when they were sticking their tongues out at each other.
“Just a moment, everyone.”
Hisagi captured the battle situation.
It is truly a one-sided hunt for a natural enemy.
The shadow mercenaries succeeded in pushing the evil dragon into a corner.
“Looking at the movement, it looks like we’re entering phase 2.”
“okay? Here again, we are experts…”
“But it’s strange.”
“Strange? what?”
Hyeonsa (賢巳) in Tokyo.
Hisagi did not easily forget what he saw with those narrow eyes. And it was Nam Cheol-min, the analyst who observed the situation from a different perspective than Hisagi.
“The truth is…”
At the same time, the voice reached the three people.
-Taemin! 4th Corps Commander Where is that guy now?!
It was like that.
The appearance message that came to mind was not from the evil dragon in the first place.
Leonie tapped Nam Taemin’s side.
“Hey… what is that bastard doing now?”
The moment when the evil dragon was defeated.
There was a new type riding on top of the dragon.
4th Corps Commander Copper.
He had put a golden gag on the evil dragon’s mouth.
A mocking voice echoed in everyone’s minds.
“Golden-scented Copper expresses his gratitude to you. “It saved me a lot of trouble.”
A message that is updated at the same time.
[Golden Fragrance’s 4th Legion Commander ‘Evil Dragon Knight Copper’ appears.] Does
this mean that this is a high-level Demon King raid?
-be careful! It’s different from raids so far. You can’t predict the pattern at all!
I began to feel the weight of the Ten Chairs, which were of a different rank.
