Black Dragon Subjugation Battle

“Attack!”

I shouted the moment inky scales appeared through the dark storm clouds.

At that, my guild members who received my order increased the altitude of their griffons and soared into the sky.

It was a flight of nearly 300 people. A rough wind burst out, and the griffons’ loud cries echoed far and wide.

However, we weren’t the only ones flying into the sky to attack the Black Dragon.

Users riding griffons appeared simultaneously.

Not hundreds. At a glance, more than a thousand began to cover the sky.

The guild marks floating above the users’ nicknames caught my eye.

Those I had seen so much of in the Faction War. It was the appearance of the Human Alliance.

“Everyone, retreat!”

The number was too great to clash with Malzzonkka alone.

I turned Ppiyaki’s direction and shouted.

“It’s Malzzonkka Guild!”

“Kill them all!”

“Blood Demon King-nim! Please fight me!”

Just as we recognized the enemies, the enemies also recognized us.

They each drew their weapons and began to fly faster.

Attacking the giant Black Dragon was secondary. It was a blatant operation to clear the hostile alliance members from their sight first.

At this rate, we’ll be caught. I shouted to Helena, who was nearby.

“Give me Time Acceleration!”

There was no time to explain what I was going to do. Fortunately, Helena gave me the [Time Acceleration] buff without saying a word.

Kieeeing-!

The speed of my body increases to the limit.

At that moment, the senses of my mind and body, which had been misaligned, overlapped as if they were meshing together.

The sensation of squeezing my body into ill-fitting clothes disappeared.

Beyond the incandescent pain, the speed of my body keeping up with my accelerated mind gave me unparalleled pleasure.

-I’m going.

The moment I thought that, my body was already moving.

It felt like I was moving freely in stopped time.

My body, rising from Ppiyaki’s back, immediately took a stance to prepare a skill.

Seueueuk-

[Charge]

I kicked off from where I stood. At that moment, my body was covered in blue mana and shot out in a straight line.

The movement distance and speed of charge-type skills are affected by the caster’s attack speed.

Paaang-!

With a rough sonic boom, Ppiyaki’s body disappeared. But my body didn’t stop.

A considerable distance was created as if I had folded space to run. But it’s not over yet.

“Come out!”

The moment my voice scattered slowly, a wolf jumped out of a large magic circle.

I’m sorry, but he had to help me like that time.

My outstretched leg touched the wolf’s back. At that moment, the wolf let out a howl at a slow speed.

“Eurureurang…!”

My foot touched. That means it’s ground-based.

At that moment, I raised my sword as if pulling it back and took a stance to prepare for the next skill.

[Fierce Dragon Strike]

Kwang!

The moment I kicked off the wolf’s back, the tip of my sword was drawing a golden dragon.

The long, trailing golden energy scattered like the tail of a snake swimming in water.

That appearance was similar to lightning flashing beyond the storm clouds.

The moment all charge-type skills ended, my body began to slow down.

The buff effect of Time Acceleration had disappeared.

Both the wolf and Ppiyaki had been reverse-summoned, so I had to wait a considerable amount of time to re-summon them.

I immediately took out a [Guild Summons Order] from my inventory.

“Come on out!”

Bbeonjjeok-

The moment the Guild Summons Order raised high into the sky emitted light, huge pillars of light fell around me.

Not just one. Over dozens, nearly 300 pillars of light fell around me.

At that moment, a pure white hand popped out of the pillar of light and grabbed my falling body.

It was Helena.

Without saying anything else, she put me in front of her.

Thanks to my character’s small size, I could fit snugly in Helena’s arms.

I nodded, checking on the guild members.

We’ve created enough distance, so they won’t be able to chase us anymore.

“Let’s join the alliance too!”

The Human Alliance has gathered. If we wander around as a single guild, we’ll be attacked by them and wiped out in an instant.

“Just now. How did you do that?”

Helena asked as we moved to the coordinates where the alliance members had agreed to meet.

I crossed my arms with a confident expression and answered.

“I split the sky.”

“Split the… sky…?”

“Yeah.”

It’s an incredibly accurate expression.

I split the sky. The long, trailing afterimage of light in that stopped time was definitely not an exaggeration to say that it split the sky.

But Helena didn’t seem to understand what I was saying.

That’s why they’re called mages.

I secretly sighed and shook my head.

As we rode Helena’s Wind Walker together and arrived at the meeting place, the alliance guild leaders, who had arrived earlier, waved their hands at me and greeted me happily.

“It’s U-mawang-nim!”

“Long time no see!”

“Aren’t you wearing your cow suit today?”

“I’m not wearing it.”

Why are these old men like this today?

Just a few days ago, we were enemies gathered for war.

I cleared my throat and opened my mouth.

“Is everyone gathered?”

“Ah, of course. We’ve brought all the guys we could mobilize without missing a single one.”

“Is it a World Boss raid again? Is there any more information?”

“Unfortunately, no.”

There’s no way there would be information. It’s the first time this guy has appeared since the expansion pack was updated. I don’t know if there are specific conditions for it to respawn, but anyway, it’s out, so we have to catch it.

“Let’s move out soon.”

I said, looking up at the sky.

[Corrupted Divine Beast – Black Dragon]

Its health was steadily decreasing.

If we just stood by and watched, it would definitely be taken away.

I jumped up from my seat.

Because Ppiyaki, who had been reverse-summoned, had recovered.

“Yeona.”

Helena hugged my back as if she was disappointed, but it was strategically disadvantageous for powerful forces like us to be gathered in one place.

I took her hand off and stretched my arms up into the sky.

“Come out!”

“Ppiyaaak!”

As I jumped onto the back of the newly appeared Ppiyaki, Helena’s stinging gaze followed me.

I couldn’t help it. I turned away from her gaze and drew my sword.

“Charge!”

Paaang!

There were over a thousand people. Together with them, I began to increase altitude and approach the Black Dragon.

Kwang! Kureureung-!

As the storm clouds got closer, the lightning flashing beyond them made my skin tingle.

The giant inky scales reflected the lightning and showed off its presence.

It was huge. So much so that I couldn’t see its head.

“Move while attacking!”

Usually, in the case of these types of raid monsters, their weakness is near their head.

To accumulate more damage, it was necessary to know that weakness.

I quickly moved around with Ppiyaki and scanned the surroundings.

Gorgeous skill effects were exploding everywhere from one end of the sky to the other.

It wasn’t just the Demon Alliance and the Human Alliance. Small and medium-sized guilds that didn’t belong to the alliance also participated in this raid.

There were too many competitors.

“Found the head!”

At that moment, one of the alliance members shouted loudly and stretched out his hand.

Everyone turned their attention to that side. That was the same for me.

Between the black storm clouds, the horns that were faintly revealed were wrapped in vivid lightning.

And what about the long, wriggling whiskers? I could say it clearly.

That the head of this Black Dragon was there.

“Everyone, that way!”

They were already moving without me having to say it. I spurred Ppiyaki on and charged quickly.

That was while I was charging towards the head. The speed of the users flying ahead began to decrease significantly.

It was because of the users attacking the head.

They weren’t demons. But they weren’t humans either. Users with sparkling hair and long ears.

Most of the users were archers holding guns or bows.

That’s right. They were the newly emerged force, the Elf Alliance.

Unlike the Human and Demon races, the Elf race had a special racial passive, which was the [Blessing of the Wind Spirit].

This skill, which had the effect of correcting the accuracy of all ranged attacks, had the power to raise trash archer users, who boasted terrible accuracy, to the level of monkeys.

After this fact was revealed, 95% of archer users chose to reincarnate as Elves. Thanks to this, the blocked Demon race reincarnation limit was lifted.

Since the Elf race was a force created by a large number of archer users who had been oppressed, they harbored hatred for both the Demon and Human races.

I know through Hwarang how scary a skilled archer can be.

The Demon Alliance stopped in place and watched the situation.

We couldn’t start a fight rashly.

It didn’t feel like we would be pushed back, but if we fought the Elves and the Human Alliance appeared and backstabbed us, only we would die.

The Elves were also sending us wary glances.

As a brief silence continued, the Elf users who had been wary of us turned their gazes away first.

It was an unspoken signal that they wouldn’t fight. Of course, I didn’t know when that signal would change, but at least for now, we had to work with the Elves to reduce the Black Dragon’s health.

“Attack!”

Leading the alliance members, I went up to a spot slightly away from the Elves and began to pour attacks on the Black Dragon.

The huge horns and sharp eyes, and the whiskers that covered the entire cloud, were wriggling like small dragons.

As our Malzzonkka Demon Alliance began to hit the head, the Black Dragon’s health began to decrease at an incredible rate.

At that moment, familiar guild marks began to appear from afar.

It was the Human Alliance. They were also flying up, aiming for the Black Dragon’s head.

Human, Demon, Elf.

A strange standoff between the three forces continues. They watch each other and pour skills on the Black Dragon.

As the Black Dragon’s health quickly decreased and was about to reach 80%, I used the alliance chat to tell all the alliance members.

Alliance-[Depending on the situation, we’ll immediately start clearing out the hostile alliance, so stand by!]

Alliance-[Depending on the situation, we’ll immediately start clearing out the hostile alliance, so stand by!]

Alliance-[Depending on the situation, we’ll immediately start clearing out the hostile alliance, so stand by!]

I filled a page of the chat window for those who might not have seen it.

As the Black Dragon’s health reached 80%, the Black Dragon’s pattern appeared as expected.

[The Black Dragon takes a deep breath.]

The moment the message spreading throughout the server appeared before my eyes, everyone in this area began to be sucked forward with a huge suction force.

“Euaaak!”

“Giyaaaaak!”

“S, save me!”

It was an unexpected situation. I was also flustered and waved my hands wildly.

I couldn’t avoid it. The intangible force that strongly pulled my body sucked in all the users who were loitering in front of the Black Dragon’s head, regardless of whether they were Human, Demon, or Elf.

Syuuuuuk-!

If you add up all three forces, there are over three thousand people. All of them were mixed up in a mess and meshed together in the air.

The moment all the users were sucked right in front of the Black Dragon’s mouth, the powerful force that had been pulling their bodies disappeared.

People who have played Deron a bit would understand what this situation means.

A pattern that all Dragon race monsters have.

It’s a breath. This Black Dragon is now preparing a breath.

At that moment, as if my ominous premonition was correct, the Black Dragon’s mouth opened, and black flames poured out from within.

-Kwaaaaaaa!

Space twisted and all the users were swept away by the black flames.

I couldn’t escape that attack either.

My health decreased in an instant and was fixed at 1.

At that moment, over 3,000 users who couldn’t avoid death began to fall to the ground miserably.

All users were wiped out by a single pattern.
