My Alter Ego’s Path to Greatness

Chapter 338

? Dragon and Dragon (2) ?

Shaolin Temple located on Sosilbong Peak of Songshan Mountain.

As expected, once the chaos was somewhat resolved, those who had gathered for the meeting began to leave one by one for their home base.

Some suggested staying at the Shaolin Temple for a while to prepare for an unexpected situation, but this was only limited to a few forces that had suffered a loss of power to the point where it was difficult to move long distances.

Most of them were rushing as much as possible with the intention of going back quickly and establishing countermeasures.

And it was the same for the Jegal and Namgung families.

To begin with, the Zhuge Dynasty, whose main strategy was defensive tactics using forward fighting rather than pure martial arts, did not suffer much damage from the Demonic Cult’s attack, and the Namgung Family, with its master of martial arts, Geomseong, was still strong enough to overflow.

‘It was said that the fight with the Ghost Sword Demon Emperor ended in a tie. Then, he must be leading the demon cultists who have now retreated.’

Hugo quietly watched the people preparing to leave on the long journey.

Although the Heavenly Demon has already been dealt with, there are still a lot of remnants left that cannot be ignored.

In the current situation, in order to get rid of them quickly and quickly…

“Ha, Gongja!”

As I was organizing my thoughts, a now familiar voice passed by my ears.

Even though everyone was busy amidst the chaos, Namgung Soran made sure to come by once a day to say hello.

“…Please take care of yourself. “If you ever want to leave the Zhuge family, please consider our Namgung family as well!”

Now, both three were about to return home.

Considering the worst traffic in this world, it would be no different from a separation with no guarantee of when we will meet again.

“Still, the Zhuge family and the Namgung family are not that far away and they often interact. So that I can come see you then…”

Of course, those words were just her personal desires.

The distance between the two families was twice that of the Shaolin Temple and the Zhuge Dynasty.

After saying goodbye to Namgung So-ran, whom I regretted until the end, I also said goodbye to the other people I made here one by one.

In the process, I was able to check the current status of Mo In-gwang, now called ‘Nine Gwang-ma’, and it seemed like he was planning to stay at Shaolin Temple for the time being.

Well, he was interested in Harley, the ‘God of Light’ who suddenly disappeared, so it would have been reasonable to wait here after breaking up with him in order to avoid conflict in the future.

‘…More than that, Shingwangma. What is that ambiguous naming? Ah, I should have stayed here and nailed it to the ground!’

But it is already too late to vent your anger now.

In the first place, the nickname is not something you call yourself, but something that people in the world call you.

If Harley had attempted to correct the situation by scolding him directly, there was no way to do anything when the person involved was away.

‘If we don’t do something before that star name is completely established…’

Of course, there was nothing Hugo could do right now.

Of course, now he is—.

“…Sega has a problem. Everyone, throw away all the luggage you don’t need right away. “We will move as quickly as possible.”

We had to hastily start a forced march following those who had learned of Sega’s sad news through communication through magic.

A whirlwind of upheaval was now swirling throughout the world.

***

And in the midst of that vortex of upheaval.

Tian Shan Mountains in Xinjiang Province.

“…kekekekekeukkeuk, I finally found it. “You were hiding here—.”

A black figure floating in the sky looked down at the foot of the mountain and smiled grimly.

As I took in the sight of a small city nestled in one corner of this enormous mountain range.

‘That’s amazing. To build a city of that size in these rugged mountains. Moreover, the entire area is surrounded by a true form, so if it weren’t for the “Eye of the Abyss,” it would have taken longer to find it.’

Hans stroked his chin and let out a soft exclamation.

It was a completely independent environment in all respects, equipped with not only arable land for farming but also large-scale livestock sheds.

Although it is only small in scale, it could easily be considered a city-state.

As expected, it was a majesty worthy of the headquarters of the Church of the Heavenly Demon, the largest, strongest, and worst force in the Kangwhan world, both in name and reality, far beyond the level of the giant Segana or Daemun Sect.

‘Of course, that’s of no use to me.’

A glint filled with abyss burst from his eyes.

The eyeball-shaped part of the chimera couldn’t resist the momentary explosion of energy and continued to squirm, but under Hans’ strong control, it managed to regain its original form and quietly stayed in the eye socket.

“Hehe—then shall we start lightly?”

With a low laugh, a terrible magical energy that seemed to cover the entire mountain range began to overflow from his body.

A terrifying force that far surpasses the Heavenly Demon, who was the ruler of this land not long ago.

Gooooo—

The clear sky suddenly turned dark.

Before he knew it, darkness had fallen on all the land he could see under the sky covered with dark clouds.

“——!”

“——?!”

I felt chaos erupt throughout the city.

Hans… The Absolute who had crossed the dimension and reached the Kanghwan Realm solemnly declared.

[“Listen, you mortals trapped in the dungeon.”]

So that they can properly assess the situation.

[“I am the lord of all the demons in the world.”]

Don’t dare look at yourself directly.

Rumbling—!

While the thunder that came out from between the dark clouds shook all around.

The godman who brought about all these miracles imprinted his existence on this world.

[“Respect the new King of Demons.”]

In this way, the Demon King descended on the Heavenly Demon Church.

***

There were many similarities between dragons and dragons, but even more than that, the differences were obvious.

Just as the basic raw materials are the same, the results are completely different depending on the intermediate process.

‘The biggest thing among them is that the birth of a dragon is not limited to just innate aspects.’

Unlike dragons, who continued their race only through bloodline, there was the possibility of becoming a dragon through birth.

Just like an Imoogi that trained for a thousand years becomes a dragon and ascends to heaven.

Of course, it was possible, but the probability was extremely slim, so it almost never happened, but 0 and 1 were completely different.

However, with such an acquired method, it can only become a dragon species belonging to a separate category, such as a chicken-headed dragon, a cow-headed dragon, or a winged dragon.

The red dragon, blue dragon, white dragon, black dragon, and yellow dragon, collectively known as the Five Dragons (Five Dragons), have been passed down only through bloodlines.

Even though the abilities of the dragons who had built up their ranks through training were not that much inferior to the five dragons, the mystery that had been accumulated and passed down through blood could never be ignored.

In a way, it was natural that those who inherited the name of Oh Ryong would occupy the leadership positions in charge of decision-making on Geumo Island for generations.

And now two of those leaders are…

“…cute.”

“Hmm adventure! “That guy is so desirable.”

I was completely captivated by a kid who appeared out of nowhere.

The blue dragon keeps stroking Horus’ head with a happy smile, and the red dragon keeps clearing his throat but can’t take his eyes off him.

Now, he was sitting on a pavilion in an elegant forest and receiving endless cuteness ahead of all kinds of delicacies.

‘It’s more effective than I thought.’

Horus, who was flattered as if he had never been embarrassed by such an excessive reaction, stopped trembling, shrugged his shoulders, and held his head high.

“now. Horus? Would you like to try this too? The best servant of Geumodo Island, who even served as servant of the imperial palace with pigs raised by feeding them spirit sleep…”

“Don’t just eat meat, eat this too. “Mine-year-old seaweed stewed with jade bean honey…”

Delicious foods from the mountains and seas were constantly pouring into my mouth.

Horus ate them with an arrogant expression and recalled the events that had happened since he appeared here on Geumo Island.

‘I never thought it would turn out this well.’

Horus suddenly appeared without any warning.

Harley was just going to let things happen as things went wrong anyway, but of course trespassing on Geumo Island’s territory without permission was definitely not something that could be easily overlooked.

It was a situation that could have been serious enough if it had been raised as an issue, but…

‘It wasn’t a problem.’

There is only one reason.

This was because he was now the only ‘yellow dragon’ left in this world.

‘Oh my god, it’s the same in Outerica and it’s the same here. ‘How is it that the Gold clan becomes extinct wherever they go?’

But if you think about it, it wasn’t a coincidence.

Hwangryong was the head of the five dragons and the leader of the entire Geumo Island in the Kangwhan world, and the same was true in Outerica, which shared a similar source.

Naturally, from the perspective of plotting the destruction of the world, this means that they are the clan that must be dealt with first.

Past immortal kings hunted the Gold clan, which was the bloodline of the Lords of the time, especially among dragons, and the same was true for Buncheonhoeju, who invaded the Ganghwan world and stole the dragon’s heart.

‘It means that he didn’t just come in and snatch away the defenseless hero.’

Externally, it was only known that a winged stranger had caused bloodshed in the imperial palace and taken the dragon’s heart, but behind the scenes in the hidden world, there was fierce resistance from many people.

The human forces centered around the Hwang family, including a few absolute masters, and even the monster forces centered around Geumodo.

‘The problem is that even after going that far, we lost in the end. Come to think of it, I heard that the original master of the martial arts eight trigrams that Harris learned was also attacked by that guy.’

The cause was that the Beoncheonhoeju did not move alone, but the dark world of the Demonic Cult that had been operating in secret for a long time was added.

The spies and brainwashing planted here and there led to a situation in which even our own troops could not be easily trusted, and due to the dark forces rampant from all directions, it was impossible to gather all of our forces.

As a result – not only did the royal family lose its power and its power was torn apart, but many masters lost their lives and the world fell into chaos.

In Geumo-do, not only were the bloodlines of the yellow dragons exterminated, but most of the dragons and even the highest-ranking leadership, including Kirin (??) and Hyeonmu (??), passed away.

“Um yum yum… So? “So what are the other surviving dragons doing now?”

Horus listened to the story with interest, his small mouth licking.

Gathering information, which was the purpose of coming here in the first place… was achieved very easily!

I’m just taking what’s given to me!

“The white dragon and the black dragon are entering the dragon temple to maintain the broken balance. There are also those who can add strength to it.”

“We were there not long ago. It’s not a place where you can just endure. “If you don’t take turns periodically and save your strength, you won’t be able to hold out for long before you die.”

“…Actually, some people have already died.”

“If we keep going like this, we won’t be able to last much longer. That’s why I was clinging to a message from the Dragon God that could solve this situation…”

Horus nodded slightly.

I felt like I could roughly guess why they reacted so sensitively when they saw Harley.

He looked briefly at Harley, who was wandering around the outskirts of Geumo Island under the guidance of Cheonggwan, and then focused on this again.

Of course, it couldn’t have been just because they thought it was cute for them to treat me like this, a dragon from another world.

That’s why they act so excessively because they all want something….

Fall and fall—

“It’s fascinating. “Could it be possible for cheeks to stretch like glutinous rice cakes like this?”

“The Red Dragon is eating. If you disturb me too much, I won’t be able to use it.”

“Stop braiding your hair and talk. “Even if it’s not his body, what can you do to a boy?”

“But look at this hair. “It’s prettier this way, right?”

…is not it?

Are you doing this because you think it’s really cute?

It was around this time that Horus began to seriously consider the charms of the devil, which he himself did not know about.

“Oh, I never thought that the dragon slayer was the guide of the yellow dragon. Of course, it is quite different from the yellow dragon of this world…” “

Yes, I can’t believe it, but it seems like it is enough to bear the yellow dragon’s karma. “That should be enough for now.”

“oh my god. No matter how you look at it, it looks like a lump of blood that is not even 100 years old… or even half that old. Does this make sense? “What kind of world is this child born in, so that something like this is possible?”

A serious conversation began between them again.

And it was at that time that the story about the ‘dragon child’ that I wanted to know so much came out.

“Uh, so… they are sacrifices? To rebuild the lost courage of this world?”

“okay. It’s literally a living sacrifice. Arranged by the great and mighty Dragon God himself.”

“Red dragon….”

“Hmph.”

Yongsin, the main deity of Kang Hwan-gye.

That being, who had always been watching how the world was going, immediately came up with a plan to solve the situation and spread it out to the world the moment his dragon heart was torn away by the Lord of the Buncheonhoe.

No matter how permissive he was, he was a god of the highest order in both name and color.

As a result, the ‘solution’ was found in the fetuses of several pregnant women who lived on the dragon vein, which has the strongest energy next to the dragon heart, all over the continent.

They are the dragon children.

It was a living sacrifice that was forced to be sacrificed for the world even before birth.

“…The place for that ceremony is the Dragon Shrine, and the priest who will perform it is our Oryong.”

“Isn’t it absurd? But what can I do? The Dragon God told me to do that. “He probably doesn’t care how we feel.”

Horus nodded blankly at the words of the red dragon, who was now openly hostile.

I could completely understand why she behaved that way.

‘…Wow, there is no such thing as real recognition.’

I knew from the beginning that God was like that.

A world manager with a will too great to be a personality.

For convenience, they are divided into good gods and evil gods according to their basic tendencies, but in the first place, they were not beings that could be judged from the perspective of mortals.

‘…This is a pain in the ass.’

The relationships shared here flashed through his mind.

-“I will be working hard here, so Confucius Xia, please tell me about the things that happened there. “Is this a promise?”

-“I feel indebted to you today as well. Thank you, God. I will definitely receive this favor someday…”

Horus frowned and sighed.

Somehow, things were resolved too easily.
