Chapter 249: Something Happened (2)
Just one persons absence.
They never thought they would feel it this deeply.
Up until Lee Hoyeol disappeared.
Those who didnt know the situation were not worried.
Who are we to get worried about the Commander?
I know. We should worry about us.
Our level difference is too big.
According to the words exchanged.
Hoyeol was not someone others should be worried about.
Even if they didnt have any proof, you could just tell from his past actions.
His performance turned their concern into baseless worries.
It was countless.
Furthermore.
Under any circumstances.
Hoyeols uprightness was never broken.
Yeah, everybodys not worried. Chief Lee.
Slide
The top floor of the Mage Tower.
The Tower Master was lying down on the floor and wagging his tail. However, unlike usual, the movement of his tail was slightly stiff, and Hoyeol was obviously the reason for that.
It was an expensive sight.
15 days ago.
The day Hoyeol headed to the Arcana Continent.
He just took a nap like usual
No, he wished he just focused on his recovery.
Its a portal to the Arcana Continent. How can I ignore it
The problem was that his instincts as a mage thought differently.
He could ignore it for a day or two.
But about a week later.
He was so worried that he couldnt even stamp his feet properly on the parchment.
Suddenly, he heard Marcelos voice.
Are you giving up on your work and lying down again?
Little Chief. Im in a serious situation right now.
Serious is one thing, and work is another.
Youre so rude. Dont talk back to me.
Youre noisy. Please stay still.
Slide
Marcelo grabbed the back of the Tower Master who was lying on the floor and lifted him up.
Then, he moved the Tower Master to the upper seat.
As if he was a slave.
A disapproving gaze was directed towards Tower Master.
Soon the seniors will go to the top floor.
The seniors? The top floor? Why?
What do you think is the reason?
The Tower Master was startled.
Could it be that they noticed he had stamped with his foot half-heartedly?
Did they come here to raise the issue as a group?
His nyansience No, his conscience had been pricked.
But fortunately, it was because of other reasons.
Its probably because theyre worried about Chief Lee.
Mage Tower.
Senior mages, including the heads, knew how determined Hoyeol was to enter the Arcana Continent.
Hoyeol didnt express his determination with his own mouth, but it was obvious from his actions.
The Tower Master muttered.
Why would he bring the battle magic tools
His grumbling ended there.
The Twenty senior mages.
They all stepped onto the top floor of the Mage Tower.
The elder mage behind them.
Yugwid stepped forward awkwardly.
Ive explained enough to the seniors, Tower Master. There is nothing to hide from our heads. Its not like we know everything about Chief Lees intentions.
The representative of the senior mages.
Senior of black magic, Matis Dean Carl.
He opened his mouth.
Im not here to ask Chief Lees intention.
Yugwid turned her head and asked back.
Then what is your business here, Senior Matis?
His business.
It was simple and clear.
He couldnt just wait forever.
That was his business.
Please allow the use of magic tools and the connector.
It was clear why Hoyeol had borrowed 12 battle tools.
Chief Lee entered the Arcana Continent, prepared to face an enemy they could not even imagine.
And the fact that Chief Lee didnt return to the Mage Tower after 15 days
Clearly, Chief Lee is in a situation where he needs help.
A sense of solemnity hung on the top floor of the Mage Tower.
Although the Tower Masters tail was wagging.
His fur was rising.
If only such a thing could have been possible.
?
Before giving you the permission to use the tool. I would have used the odd tool called the connector first. Even if it wasnt me
The Tower Master looked at Marcelo.
Marcelo nodded as if he wouldnt refute it.
Because he also felt the same way.
With the Tower Master and the seniors.
But Im sorry, Matis, I cant do that.
For more than 15 days.
Even if Chief Lee Hoyeol didnt return to the Mage Tower for months.
Entering Arcana through the connector was unacceptable.
The reason was simple.
As a strict person, didnt Chief Lee declare it?
!!!
I will definitely use it according to the procedure.
It was not that the heads didnt think about entering the Arcana Continent. Because Hoyeol left something behind. They just erased the option of the connector from their mind.
Sir Hoyeol wouldnt want help that violates the procedures.
Marcelo added.
Also, if this is the Chief I know, he will definitely return to the Mage Tower to follow the procedures. No, I have no doubt that he will.
All the senior members.
Thats true, for sure.
Among them, Bensch William, who had been through the procedure, nodded particularly hard. The moment when the sudden meeting was about to end.
Rise
At that moment, the Tower Masters hair stood up.
The Tower Master was not the only one who felt the presence.
Senior, chief, elder.
Even the skilled and apprentice mages below the top floor.
What?
They sensed an immeasurably large presence.
Crack!
The sky suddenly became dark.
The rain poured.
A thunderbolt struck.
The records of the Great Dragon-Demon War came to mind as if overlapping with that scenery.
Yeah.
These were the signs that foretold the arrival of dragons.
Their purpose was unknown, but the Tower Master responded quickly.
As of this time, all members of the Mage Tower are permitted to exit the tower.
The lesson from the Great Dragon-Demon War.
Because it was so simple, they didnt forget it.
Dont dare try to fight the dragon.
Tsk.
But if they didnt fight back.
What would happen to the world of adventurers?
The Mage Tower was well aware of the level of players, the adventurers.
Excluding Hoyeol and a few of them, they were weaker than apprentice mages.
This was a world where such people were revered as heroes.
A second Great Dragon-Demon War with insufficient power.
Therefore, they had no choice but to step up even though they knew they couldnt fight back.
For the Mage Tower to be willing to sacrifice itself for others.
It was funny even when he looked at it himself.
But at the same time, they couldnt help it.
How come Chief Lees absence feels bigger than the Tower Masters absence?
Now that the chief, Hoyeol, was away.
The Mage Tower, including him.
They had to take on the huge burden he had been carrying.
Because that was the procedure of the Mage Tower.
How could you carry such a heavy burden alone, Chief Lee?
.
.
.
The Mage Tower wasnt the only one that moved quickly.
Zero Mountain.
The players who were in the middle of hunting also felt the change.
Everyone, stop.
Whats going on?
It was sunny just now, so why is it raining all of a sudden?
It was too strange to simply be dismissed as a rain shower.
As if there was a hole in the sky.
The rain began to pour from the sky.
How come this guys weather forecast has never been right, seriously?
Wait a minute.
What is it? Has the rainy season started? Or a typhoon?
No, its not like that
Something incomprehensible to common sense was starting to happen.
I majored in liberal arts. But is it possible for it to rain all over the world at the same time? And, scientifically?!
It was literally like that.
Pitter patter
The desert that never rained all year round.
Rain even came down to polar regions where it was supposed to snow.
It was so strange that they were at a loss for words.
As expected, they didnt question it for long.
Because they heard it.
Growl!
!!!
It appeared.
[Warning: Your mental strength is too low]
The aftereffects of the formidable Dragon Fear.
D-Dragon!!
Even top players called rankers didnt dare to resist status abnormality. Let alone the ordinary players, even the ordinary people were helpless against the Fear.
But so far, it literally just had been a signal.
Not just one. Three, no, five . six!
Seven, eight, nine
A total of a dozen dragons appeared, tearing through the dimension.
They began to glide across the Earth.
AAU was the one most shocked about this.
The Korea branch.
Haha
Park Minjae let out a helpless laugh.
They knew what kind of race the dragon was.
They could tell right away.
How hopeless this situation was.
He heard a trembling voice.
Thats right! Sunbae, we have Skal!
Ignorance was a bliss.
In a situation where it was not strange to panic.
Sung Hyunjoon grabbed Yoon Sookyum and continued talking.
If its the hidden class dragon knight, wouldnt he find a way to overcome this situation? No, if its Skal He may have already taken action!
If it was a normal situation.
He would have patted him on the shoulder and said it was a good idea.
However, the condition of the dragons that showed up on the monitor was the problem.
Park Minjae opened his mouth in a low voice.
Whether its Skal or anyone else, no one will be able to get through them.
Heavy rain was pouring across the globe.
To put it simply, it was dragon tears.
It was not a metaphorical expression.
For some reason, the dragons flying in the sky were really crying. Werent they also talking about it in the dragon language?
They wont listen to anyone, nor they will stop.
Branch Manager.
Until they find the Dark Dragon.
As a result, all branches of the AAU were in a state of emergency. The emergency order stated that the identity of the Dark Dragon that the dragons were looking for must be identified at all costs.
But no matter which database they searched.
I couldnt find it.
There was no information about the Dark Dragon.
Yeah? I knew it.
Park Minjae smiled rotten.
Dark Dragon, there is no way I would forget a name like that.
Then again, of course, the one who knew about this situation was Raymond Sean.
He would be the only one.
No, Hoyeol might know something
I cant rely on the General Manager.
Hoyeol was gone.
Besides, they couldnt just be on the receiving side forever.
Lets regain our conscience, Park Minjae.
Splash-
Park Minjae collected his composure by washing his face.
Then he opened his mouth heavily.
As expected, it would be best to provide information to the Mage Tower.
When Hoyeol was away.
Humanitys strongest force was the Mage Tower.
Above all, the moment the dragons appeared at the Mage Tower.
All the mages went out of the Mage Tower to deal with the dragons.
That meant they were definitely an ally.
Of course, we should also convey the information to the Holy War Allied Force.
The Holy War Allied Force led by Yusra, Frost, and Holy Land Muon was also a force that could not be ignored. However, they had to be compared to the dragon. The problem was that it wasnt just one or two dragons
I dont expect to win.
He just hoped they wouldnt collide.
Regardless of whether they won or lost.
The resulting damage would be incomparable to what it was before.
Therefore.
Im sorry
Park Minjae had no choice but to clench his fist and beg earnestly.
Not God, not Buddha.
To the last person he should beg for.
He shamelessly ended up begging.
General Manager.
.
.
.
The mages of the Mage Tower, the Holy War Allied Force, and the players looked up at the sky.
My determination is useless.
Harkon said calmly.
The dragons of the legend.
Dozen living legends appeared.
He promised himself that he would throw his life away.
But he didnt think this could be called a battlefield.
What, why are you crying like that?
Thats what Im saying.
It makes me depressed
Nam Taemin and Leonie blurted out.
Hisagi said, wiping the raindrops from his chin.
I can feel their emotions.
He didnt have to put into words what that feeling was.
Because the falling rain already represented their feelings.
The Mage Tower was also surprised.
Bensch whispered to Banglet.
Uh, they seem a bit different from the dragons I know from the Great Dragon-Demon War.
Yeah. I heard they were very violent.
Right? I didnt read it wrong, Senior Banglet! It was obviously written that they laughed happily even after seeing the high-ranking magic pouring out!
Were these the arrogant dragons recorded in the Great Dragon-Demon Wars?
Even as he watched them, he was doubtful.
At the same time, he began to question.
What on earth is that Dark Dragon to them?
The king of all things.
Dragons grieved, missed, and howled.
And looked for him.
Of course, he didnt question it for long.
Soon enough, that person showed up.
Tap tap
.
.
.
Damn it.
The sound of these shoes always attracted attention.
I faced the gazes of the people who looked back at me.
Marcelo, Harkon, Nam Taemin even that darned cat.
I felt like we just met a few hours ago at most.
In real-time, 15 days had passed, right?
In that case, I could understand why they looked so happy.
But thats not the case for you, right?
I looked up at the sky.
And our eyes met.
A particularly shiny dragon.
!
The Ice Dragon Prosnax.
This is just my guess
It was clear that extreme cold had a negative effect on the temperament of both humans and dragons. Otherwise, how would you explain the crazy emotional changes of Senios and Prosnax?
He lunged at me like he was going to kill me, and now hes crying?
It was ridiculous.
I couldnt express it.
I just opened my mouth as always.
Didnt I tell you?
!
You too.
I shifted my gaze once and continued.
And you have nothing to worry about either.
Yeah, because they saw me alive like this.
That should be enough, right?
Especially you, dragons!
Really!
Because I, who was thought to be dead, was alive.
It must be surprising.
I could generously understand their feeling.
Just in case.
Dont even think about calling my name just because youre happy.
Dont even think about calling me with that name.
Lee Hoyeol Claudie, Dark Dragon Either way, nothing works!
Rather than spreading the dark history to the whole world.
It would be better for it to be misunderstood as a touching reunion.
Theres nothing I can do about it, so just keep crying like you do now!!
