Chapter 296: Kang Chul-In Vs . Desdemona (2)
The first collision between Kang Chul-In and Desdemona was pretty rough for the former .
Throb . It was the first time in a while that he felt like his fist was being crushed . After all, Kang Chul-In’s fist was as strong as iron .
What is… the ident.i.ty of this girl?
He couldn’t tell where she had come from . If she was that powerful, then she would’ve shown herself in his past life .
“Why, do you not want to fight now after tasting my fist?”
Desdemona spoke mockingly .
“It hurt, huh?”
“ . . . ”
“But you know… that was only a small part of the pain I felt, you hit-and-runner . ”
He couldn’t understand what she was saying . His driving style was staying within lines, obeying traffic laws, and always yielding to others, because his father had pa.s.sed away from a traffic accident . So him, a hit-and-runner? There was no way he knew about the bulls.h.i.+t that Desdemona was talking about .
“Well, I can figure it out by beating you up . ”
However, Kang Chul-In didn’t try to understand what she was saying . He gripped Kaiforce in his right hand and Mitra in his left hand .
Dual-wielding .
It was the sword technique that he had trained in by using both the swords at the same time .
“It probably won’t work . ”
Desdemona was relaxed .
“You’re going to fight against me with toys that aren’t awakened yet? You child . And with your body in that condition?”
“ . . . !”
“You can’t even control your mana yet, and you want to do what?”
Surprisingly, Desdemona knew precisely that Kang Chul-In hadn’t finished absorbing the dragon heart . It was the sharp insight of a true dragon .
“Y-your Majesty . . . !”
It was then .
“Please move . . . !”
The one who hadn’t been spanked by Desdemona yet, general Drakan, got in between Kang Chul-In and Desdemona .
“Move?”
Kang Chul-In repeated, as if he couldn’t believe it .
“Drakan, are you telling me to run away from that girl?”
“Yes, your Majesty . . . !”
“ . . . ”
“If you don’t move, you won’t be safe . . . !”
Kang Chul-In was speechless because Drakan was speaking like it was expected that he should move . It was ridiculous . A warrior of the draconian species was suggesting that his Lord run away? It was a situation that he couldn’t imagine . However, Drakan was just trying to be faithful .
How can I watch you die right in front of me!?
His loyalty in trying to save his Lord was genuine . That was why he was getting in the way of a true dragon .
“Your Majesty, that girl is not human!”
“Not human?”
“She’s a dragon!”
“ . . . !”
“Not a normal dragon either, but the gold dragon from the legends is that girl!”
That was also something he couldn’t understand . A dragon? The only dragons that Kang Chul-In knew were large lizards with wings, not cute girls like her .
Could it be?
Just then, there was a thought that flashed through Kang Chul-In’s brain . Actually, rather than a thought flas.h.i.+ng through his head, he suddenly remembered an old book called [Book of Higher Beings in Pangaea] . Its contents were the following:
Dragon:
The strongest being . Their lifespan is about 10,000 years . Their abilities are so out of this world that a human cannot dare to follow them, and they were skilled in all types of magic through this superior knowledge, and can even use the Level-12 magic that humans cannot .
There isn’t anything known about what they eat, and it is agreed by scientists that it is impossible to find what it is with human abilities .
(There are some who say that dragons enjoy polymorphing into humans, but nothing is confirmed about this)
Could it be… that girl is a real dragon who appeared in that old novel? If what Drakan said was true, that seemed to be the only likely reason . It was because in that book, there was also information about “fake dragons . ”
Drake:
A subspecies of dragons . They look similar to dragons (a dragon is at least 1 . 5 times larger), but they do not have a dragon heart and their intellect is only as much as a lizard’s, so they cannot use magic .
Was that true?
It seemed right . If she was a dragon and the guy that he believed was a dragon was actually a drake, it made sense .
“Ah . ”
It was Desdemona who confirmed Drakan’s words and Kang Chul-In’s guesses .
“Hey, lizard? Not only did you reveal my ident.i.ty, but you dare to block my way? With a gold dragon like me in front of you?”
She was basically saying “I’m the real dragon!”
“Your Majesty!”
Drakan didn’t surrender at Desdemona’s threat .
“Please get out of the way! I’ll try to stall for some time!”
Right now, Drakan’s head was only filled with Kang Chul-In’s survival .
He could overcome his fears!
Draconians were more faithful towards their Lords than fearful of dragons .
“I-Is that true!”
Amur burst up .
“That child is a real . . . !”
“I don’t have time to explain! You hurry on too!”
Drakan tried to convince Amur to escape as well, but Amur’s faithfulness didn’t fall short to Drakan’s .
“What are you talking about!? I’m also a servant of His Majesty, so how can I not protect His Majesty!”
“Y-your Majesty!”
“Please hurry up!”
“I’ll open a path for you!”
“Your Majesty, quick!”
The same went for the others . A few of them were confused about Drakan’s statement, but they also realized that they couldn’t stay laying down while Kang Chul-In was in danger .
“Hey, look at you . ”
Desdemona grinned .
“Are you all writing a play together? Hm? Hilarious . ”
She was talking about them like they were pathetic . Her eyes were filled with an arrogance that only strong people could have .
I am strong, and you are weak . It was like she was saying, “kneel, you insects!”
“Ke…”
For the first time in his life, Kang Chul-In felt what true fury was .
“I feel horrible today . ”
Of course he would . Kang Chul-In was the definition of arrogance . Kang Chul-In, who was as arrogant as Desdemona, was humiliated by the situation . Some girl was acting out, and his servants were saying they would save him from her, so of course Kang Chul-In would be furious .
“Everyone move…”
A dark voice escaped his mouth .
“While I’m being nice about it…”
However, Drakan didn’t seem to want to listen .
“Your Majesty . . . !”
Drakan screamed .
“The land that you established is only…”
“Drakan . ”
A low but raging voice came from Kang Chul-In .
“What do you see me as?”
“Y-your Majesty!”
“Move . ”
“However, Your Majesty, didn’t I…”
Before Drakan could finish, he was blown away by Kang Chul-In’s fist .
Kw.a.n.g!
“ . . . !”
Everyone was surprised .
“Anyone . . . ”
Kang Chul-In announced .
“If anyone blocks me… I’ll cut you down without a word, so keep that in mind . ”
It was a great amount of pride . It was the spirit of one who had calmly met his death in his past life .
“Huh . ”
Desdemona mocked him again with a smirk .
“You’re gonna die if you…”
It was then .
Chrwak!
There was a flas.h.i.+ng light, and
Swoosh…!
A section of her hair scattered in the air . It was from Kang Chul-In’s attack .
“ . . . !”
Desdemona quickly teleported away and put distance between her and Kang Chul-In .
I almost… died?
If Kang Chul-In’s attack was only a few centimeters deeper, things might’ve gone bad . Her dragon life of a thousand years would end futilely just like that!
“A mere hit-and-runner dares…”
Desdemona ground her teeth .
“You… just know that you won’t die easily . ”
As soon as she finished,
Urrrrng . . . !
Thousands of energy forms appeared around Kang Chul-In .
Magic missiles . It was a basic 3rd-level spell, but if there were thousands of them, it could be comparable to a 10th-level . There are 12 levels of magic spells, so this was quite strong .
[Spell power, detected!]
However, Kang Chul-In was completely immune to magic .
[A great amount of magical energy has been detected! (Absorption rate : 99%)]
[Energy is filling up!]
Even if it was magic from a dragon, 3rd-level magic was still 3rd-level magic .
Chrwak!
Kaiforce turned into a whip, and aimed for Desdemona .
Jeuk!
Desdmona felt the pain of the steel whip wrapping around her neck .
“Die!”
Kang Chul-In didn’t miss this chance . Desdemona was strong . She wasn’t someone he could go easy on .
Clench . . . !
Kang Chul-In gripped Kaiforce even tighter . Desdemona’s neck began to split .
Foooos.h.!.+
Blood shot out of her like a fountain . The girl’s head rolled on the floor of the Lord’s Hall .
“ . . . !”
Everyone was shocked .
“Y-your Majesty!”
Especially Drakan . Kang Chul-In had killed a gold dragon who existed only in legends? Without even giving her the chance to return to her actual body?
“That horrible b.i.t.c.h . ”
However, Kang Chul’s face wasn’t bright . No, rather, he looked uncomfortable, like he was extremely displeased .
“You thought you could trick me with tricks like that?”
Kang Chul-In’s gaze turned towards Ninetails’ old marble throne .
“Hehe?”
Desdemona was there .
“You have good eyes, huh? Hit-and-runner?"
The girl was sitting arrogantly with her legs crossed .
