1 hour before annihilating the demons.

With Stella’s amplification, I was able to maximize my energy and find the location of the demon.

I was just about to chase after it before it got so far away that it was difficult to follow.

The spirit of the fire dragon called me and stopped me.

“Take my heart before you go.”

“Heart? It must have been crushed because it fell from a very high place?”

“The dragon’s heart is not that soft. It will be good to go as it will remain intact under the protection of fire.”

“The body is dead, but the protection placed on the heart is maintained… … .”

I learned why the dragon’s heart is worth astronomical amounts of money.

I wasn’t really in need of money, but I thought it would be better to take it myself if I was going to give it to someone else and use it.

For that reason, I searched through Hwaryong’s body for a while and was able to find his heart still beating, wrapped in fire.

“found. Can I just take it?”

“No, eat that right now.”

“Ugh! Eat this?”

I twisted my eyes and mouth in disgust.

However, the fire dragon was staring at it intently, as if it would not leave until it was eaten.

“The protection of fire lasts forever, but the heart will eventually stop. It will be more efficient to eat it when it is freshest.”

“Won’t your face and internal organs be burned because of your protection?”

“It will be quite hot at first, but it will soon get better after taking it. Flame is an element responsible for life and purification, and it is compatible with the divine power of light that you possess, so they will definitely merge into one.”

“If you say that, I have no choice but to believe it… … .”

I closed my eyes and took a bite of the dragon’s heart the size of my face.

“Keuuu!”

My face, esophagus, and stomach were burning with the heat as if I was drinking lava.

The pain caused my facial muscles to contort and my teeth to clench.

I kept moaning and clutching my chest.

Isn’t this a trick of Hwaryong, who has a grudge against me for killing him?

When those doubts arose, the fire burning inside my body was extinguished and a warm aura enveloped me.

The body, which had been completely burned, returned to its original state, and the muscles of the whole body were overflowing with strength.

“As expected, my heart merged with your divine power. Since the protection of fire and divinity are mixed, death will never be able to stay by your side if it cannot end you with a single blow.”

“It means that any injury is immediately regenerated.”

“It’s not just that. You can ignite the divine flame that destroys evil anytime, anywhere. Moreover, you can apply your will to the fire and control it so that it only affects the things you want to burn.”

“Then you can put your will into other people’s fire?”

“Available except for fire created by unique abilities. And no fire will harm you.”

I have made one of the five elements, excluding light and darkness, completely mine.

This was impossible even for an archmage who only controlled the element of fire.

After consuming the Fire Dragon’s Heart, I fell in love with the desire to test my newfound power.

And then, returning to the present, I was able to experience its power firsthand.

“After using it in real life, I can definitely feel it.”

Crack! Crack!

The corpses of demons slowly burning in flames.

Even though they were doing something crazy like starting a fire in the middle of the forest, there was no problem at all.

As the fire dragon said, the flame filled with will only burned the demons.

“I gained absurd power.”

“Isn’t it good that I’m much stronger than before?”

“Power has always been the truth, so it must be good. However, where there is fire, there is also a moth. If the story spreads that you swallowed the heart of a fire dragon, people all over the world will bother you.”

“The owner doesn’t like being famous!”

“I don’t really like noisy atmosphere as I have lived quietly for 8 years.”

Having fun and chatting with close friends is another story.

“So, I will not use this power openly as much as possible. I should only use it in necessary or emergency situations.”

“For example, a moment when you need to save someone?”

“Well, I guess so… … . ah! Now that I think about it, you were supposed to help Scathach as soon as the demon purification work was over, right?”

“I told Yodo that I was going to meet the dragon demon sword, but then I played around with the fire dragon and the demons!”

“If anyone hears it, they will misunderstand.”

“Out!”

I lightly fed chestnuts to Stella’s forehead.

Stella rubs her red, swollen forehead and puffs out her cheeks.

There was no need to feel sorry because it was the price of not being careful with your words and actions.

“If it’s Skahara, it’s highly likely that he came over with Sephira, so it would be better to go northwest, right?”

“Please amplify?”

Let’s save “. If you use it indiscriminately, you won’t be able to use it when you really need it.”

Anyway, if you meet Sephira, you will know his whereabouts.

In the northwest, there was still shaking as if the fighting was still going on.

Looking at the intensity of the vibration, it is fighting much more intensely than the Fire Dragon or the Golden Dragon.

Even if we assume that the aftermath was bigger because dragons were fighting, it was strange that the fight was not over even after the demons were killed.

“What if the dragon heading towards Scathach was actually a water dragon?”

“… … Then I guess I should apologize.”

To confront the fire dragon, he used an artifact to summon rain.

Thanks to this, the lava that stuck to the fire dragon’s skin was cooled and the power of the fire generated was also reduced.

However, if there are some entities that become weak to heavy rain, there are also those that become stronger.

From the water dragon’s perspective, it would have been a battlefield filled with water everywhere.

If Sephira was the opponent of the water dragon who had become unusually strong because of me, then the current situation is understandable.

“It’s a shame because it’s an elder dragon, otherwise it would have collapsed a long time ago!”

“Ugh… ! I need to go quickly and help.”

There was still one demon left that could not be dealt with.

A young demon who curled his tail and ran away before he could even fight.

Regardless of age, all demons deserve to be killed, but fixing what I did came first.

I don’t know who he was, but he was a very lucky guy.

“Wait a minute, owner! What about the fire dragon’s egg?”

“That’s… … ! Yes, can you deliver it to Hwaryong?”

“Woo! Even during the family fight, you only made me run errands, and this time, you sent me alone again! I am not a slave!”

“Sorry.”

“If fair compensation is not paid, I will exercise my veto!”

“Is there anything you want from me?”

“Just once, move the way I want!”

“In one word, are you asking for the right to wish?”

“Yes!”

What will Stella, who has the power to wish, do to me?

I was anxious, but I couldn’t refuse because of the situation.

“I understand.”

“Okay, thank you!”

“Can I ask what the wish ticket is used for?”

“I’ll tell you later, not now!”

Once the deal was concluded, Stella left in the direction of the fire dragon without even looking back.

He was easy to deal with, but sometimes I couldn’t tell what he was thinking.

Anyway, I put aside my thoughts about Stella and Al and ran in the direction of Sephira.

As we passed through the forest, the shaking grew stronger.

A fight between dragons and dragons.

Wind pressure occurred one after another, which would not have been surprising to an ordinary person even if his body had been crushed.

It’s a fight at a level where it wouldn’t be surprising if a person dies, but would it be so scary if it were the things around them?

The dragon tribe’s battlefield was a place I had been to in the past, and it was a place with exquisite natural scenery.

However, now it has become a wasteland as it has been completely destroyed by the fight between the strongest species.

“Anyway, I don’t know how I can help you.”

Even if there were only two individuals, the fight was so large that it was difficult to intervene.

If you give half-hearted help, it’s no better than not helping, and it could end up like a shrimp’s back exploding in a whale fight.

In particular, if either of the two’s breaths were hit directly, it seemed like the bed situation would not end.

One was an elder dragon, and the other was a water dragon that had become ridiculously strong due to the rainy weather.

There was some confusion because the water dragon’s scales were dyed black, but it was clearly a water dragon with the power to control water.

“Those who pollute purity! I can’t forgive!”

“Come to your senses! If you have any consciousness left, push away the evil dragon’s energy!”

“Shut up!”

Kuung-!

A water dragon that wraps around Sephira with its long body and falls to the ground together.

The ground where the two collided was shattered, creating countless cracks.

Trees were cut down indiscriminately, rivers became muddy, and corpses of unrecognizable wild animals were strewn about.

In this fight between the powerful, innocent creatures died and nature was easily destroyed.

The problem is that there is a possibility that I, now, may be included in the list of strange creatures.

“If I had Scathach, I would try to stop him somehow… !”

Scathach was not seen during the fight between the two dragons.

I thought he had crossed the continent with Sephira, but I couldn’t rule out the possibility that he hadn’t.

I felt anxious for a moment, and as if my worries were unfounded, I heard Scathach’s loud voice.

“Pay attention here!”

Even in the midst of a fight, Scathach succeeded in attracting the water dragon’s attention with just one voice.

She pointed her fingernail at an old tree that stood tall on a small island on the lake.

Then he carved a large circle into the stem with his sharp fingernail.

“It looks like you value the tree a lot as you glance at it every now and then! Do you see this hole? If you don’t stop right now, I’ll uproot this tree and turn it into a carriage!”

“That idiot!”

Looking at the circumstances, it appears that the old tree that Scathach is holding onto is the water dragon’s favorite tree.

Scathach tried to force the water dragon’s movement by holding the tree hostage.

It was clear that that action would make the water dragon run more rampant.

“Wagon? carriage… … . Hey, carriage! As for the carriage… Ugh!!”

“Wow, fuck. Does this work?”

The water dragon, who broke my expectations and went crazy, hesitated in place.

It seems that the dragon’s unusual love for carriages is also widely known in the Eastern countries.
