Chapter 195: Chapter 195
...Ominous, something's ominous.
Arsha, the queen bee, was watching from a distance what Suho was doing, looking very nervous.
Fwooosh!
The endless aura of magic from Suho caused the pyramid of Ammut to vibrate with great ominousness. Meanwhile, Ammut, the owner of this place, was watching all these phenomena with interest.
[Is it really possible for dragon eggs to hatch with such a trick?]
In theory, it wasn't wrong. However, it was unclear whether a normal Dragon Clan could be born in this way. Right now, that egg is too small for a normal egg. Originally, that egg would have been steadily showered by its parent dragon for many years, and the egg should have been 10 times larger than it is now. However, his parents, Kamish, died beforehand, leaving him premature. Although it could also be because Suho, who wasn't even a dragon, was giving him a mana shower and he didn't think about increasing the size of the egg itself at all.
[...Perhaps, at best, they will be born premature, or they may be born dead.]
At Arsha's words, Beru, who had been chewing on a pile of mana stones that he had smuggled out of the black market, laughed loudly.
[You should know that the Dragon Clan is comparable to the noble blood of our Young Liege! Instead of the magic power of the in significant Dragon Tribe, the Little Lord Himself is feeding it with his magic power, and you should know that it is rather glorious!]
[... I'll just shut up.]
Ammut left Beru behind and approached Suho for a daily quest.
[Now, hatching eggs is important, but start with today's training and then move on.]
"Oh, it's time already." Suho jumps up without saying a word. But he still had Kamish's egg in his hand. At that, Ammut burst out laughing.
[Are you going to keep holding it during training?]
"Absolutely. My grandfather's health depends on it, and I don't want to waste my time."
While answering, Suho was still breathing magic into Kamish's egg. At that eager look, Ammut's smile rose to the point where the corners of his mouth tore up.
"So you are going to do push ups with one arm up!"
"It's not much."
Suho was bandaged all over his body like a mummy. At this, Ammut chuckled, looking even more satisfied.
[Let's start from scratch today!]
Too-doo-crack!
Before he could finish his words, Suho's arm began to do push-ups, and there was an exciting, bone-breaking sound. However, Suho only frowned slightly, and continued to do push-ups with one arm. And with his other hand, he continued to infuse magic into Kamish's eggs.
[...Everybody's crazy.]
Arsha, who watched the terrible priestly relationship from a distance, looked fed up.
Shwaaaaa
In the meantime, Kamish's eggs were awaiting the time of hatching little by little, with an ominous aura.
* **
And so a day passed, two days passed, and then the third day. Contrary to Suho's rant that he would finish it in one day, Kamish's eggs still showed no signs of hatching. In the first place, it was impossible for the dragons to complete in one day what they had to do for so many years. However, Suho was also desperate about Sung-Il-hwan's well-being, and he had already been wrestling with Kamish's egg for three days without sleep.
"Our Suho is suffering so much because of this foolish grandfather." Worried about Suho, he visited the shadow dungeon for a while, and Sung Il-Hwan muttered with a bitter expression. But even in the meantime, there were signs of a crack in his body. He had to return quickly to the void before it became dangerous...
Cr–Crack crack!
It was then.
"Huh?"
"Oh."
[Kiek?]
"Quack?" In an instant, everyone's eyes widened. At last, the Kamish's eggs were beginning to hatch!
[The Beast Monarch, King of Beasts, lifts up his ears.]
[The Queen of Insects, Plague Monarch, folds her arms and watches.]
[The King of Snowfolk, Frost Monarch...]
Even for the deceased monarchs, the hatching of Kamish's eggs was of primary concern. After all, isn't it logical to think that the dragon would be the descendant of the Dragon King and Destruction Monarch, Antares? At this moment a successor is born who will inherit the power of one of the most powerful monarchs in the world with the exception of the Shadow Monarch.
[ You almost got it there Young Liege! You just need to push harder!]
With Beru's support, Suho put another bottle of mana potion in his mouth and poured out his magic power with all his might, until finally–
Crack!
Breaking open the egg, a small lizard poked its face out of it.
"Oh, It hatched!"
[Kieeeeek! It really hatched!]
[Hwaa, to think that...]
Everyone shouted Hurray! at the same time, while Arsha was the only one who closed her eyes and sighed.
'... He actually hatched the egg.'
Finally... That dangerous race was born on this earth.
And indeed, the look in Arsha's eyes was truly terrifying.
Short black horns sticking out of the head. An elongated body and tail that looks like a lizard. Attached to its side are short limbs, stubby black claws, and small wings. It was only small in size, but it was a hatchling cub of the dragon clan. For some reason, after he had broken out of the egg he stared into the void.
'Can you see?' Suho was worried about the look. After all, he wasn't born normally, so he couldn't help but be worried. But those worries were over-founded.
Boom!
Suddenly, he came to his senses, stared straight ahead, his eyes wide open. Then his eyes met Suho's, who was holding him with both hands.
Blink blink.
The dragon blinked his round eyes, smiled broadly at Suho, and opened his mouth.
"... Beep!"
T-ring!
['Pets: Red Dragon Lv.1']
"Oh!" It's been a long time since the pet system kicked in! And a name tag sprung up above the baby dragon's head.
[?? Lv.1]
Red Dragon
"Oh, you just became a pet, right? Is it because you were born from the magic I fed you?" Suho muttered, looking at the system message in front of him. In retrospect, it was similar to Gray's tame.
T-ring!
[You can give your pet a name.]
[Please choose a name for your pet.]
'A name.' Suho, who had been pondering the name for a while, suddenly heard a growl next to him.
"Grrrr."
Was there an instinctive sense of competition between them? Suddenly, the first pet, Gray, began barking viciously, glaring at the dragon cub from the side. "Woof! Woof!!" The way he wrinkled his nose and bared his teeth fiercely was incredibly rude.
[The Beast Monarch, King of Beasts, nods in satisfaction at the valiant appearance of his heir.]
Such proudness only lasted for a moment.
Tilt.
"Beep?"
At the sudden noise, the baby dragon's head turned to the side and looked at Gray.
"...." All of a sudden, Gray closed his mouth with a stolid face and lowered his gaze as if he hadn't said anything in the first place.
"Beep?"
"...." The dragon cub tilted his head in wonder, but Gray still kept his head down and didn't look up. The baby dragon turned its head to look at Suho again, and Gray's expression instantly turned into a vicious expression as he began to growl at the baby dragon.
"Grrrr!"
"Beep?"
"...." Of course, when the dragon looked at him again, Gray quickly calmed down again, closed his mouth, and rolled his eyes. A surprising shift in posture. He didn't even forget to hide his tail under his hips.
At its appearance, there was a mixture of emotions among the dead monarchs.
[The Beast Monarch, groans.]
[The King of Snowfolk , the Frost Monarch, laughs.]
[The Queen of Insects, the Plague Monarch, laughs and squirms.]
Suho felt sorry for Gray, but he also couldn't hold back his laughter either. "I guess he's higher in rank than Gray."
[It's natural, no matter how abnormally born you are, no matter how small your size is, the dragon clan is the dragon clan– Waah?!]
Shhh-
Suddenly something as fast as a whip flew out of Arsha's body, which was answering Suho's words, and snatched her away in an instant.
[Sa, please save me, Suho–!]
The culprit is none other than the dragon cub. Arsha's desperate screams faded from the mouth of the baby dragon as it munched on its cheeks.
Gulp.
It was indeed an accident that happened in an instant. But before Suho could worry, Arsha appeared from behind again, looking intact.
[Phew. Don't worry, luckily I was in a separate body– Crap!]
Swoop!
[...!]
And once again, it was a baby dragon that snatched Arsha with its long tongue, had devoured her.
"Beep!"
Then, at the look on his face that looked so bright and wide towards Suho, Suho couldn't help but laugh. Once again there was a split of emotions between the dead monarchs.
[The Queen of Insects, the Plague Monarch, drops her head with her face covered.]
[The King of Snowfolk, the Frost Monarch, laughs.]
"Oh my gosh, he is not just some kind of frog. He's a real apex predator."
Seeing that, Suho smiled and decided on the guy's name.
"Then should his name be Frog or–"
"No, wait. Um, Suho?" Sung Il-Hwan, who held Suho's shoulder with his chin, said with a serious face. "We are in a position where we have to ask the Dragon Emperor for a favor now, so why don't you choose the name of his successor a little more carefully?"
"Oh, I'm sure you're right. Then...."
Sung Il-Hwan breathed a sigh of relief. After all, his life depends on it.
As he pondered the name again, Suho remembered a character name from a game he had played before.
It just so happened that the character was also a spirit lord who dealt with fire, so it seemed appropriate to name the red dragon with it.
"... Ragnaros. No, maybe 'Ragnar' for short."
T-ring!
Once they had chosen a name, a new name came to the head of the baby dragon that was sitting quietly in Suho's hands, rolling its eyeballs as Arsha waited for her to approach again.
[Ragnar Lv.1]
Red Dragon
"Yes. That's much better than a frog."
Only then did Sung Il-Hwan nod in relief when suddenly–
FWOOM!
"!!!!"
The moment Ragnar got a name. Suddenly, dark red flames began to burn all over Ragnar's body from Suho's hands.
"Beep!"
The moment when Ragnar let out a long cry for Suho–
T-ring!
[Passive skill '(Unknown)' is triggered.]
Suddenly, he felt the sensation of time stopping as joy appeared in Suho's eyes. The plan had worked! Suho was so glad he was able to meet the dead Monarch right away! But something was odd.
Flash!
'AHH!
Suddenly, a terrible scream burst from Suho's mouth. This time, for some reason, something was very different from the case of other monarchs.
Whoops!
"AAA AAA HOT! HOT!"
It's so hot!
Suho felt like he was being swallowed by boiling oil!
A tremendous burning pain had rushed down his throat and started burning the veins of his body!
Eventually, Suho's shadow bubbled up, turning into pitch black salt and burning him whole. In the midst of that terrible suffering, Suho's consciousness was gradually sucked into the darkness and...
Guuuooo
The end of the deep, deep abyss. In an empty black and white world that has swallowed up even light. Suho finally faced it. A man perched on top of the head of a giant dragon. 'That's...!'
The Emperor.
Antares, King of Dragons, The Destruction Monarch. He scanned Suho's whole body with a look of utter arrogance before speaking,
[You.]
At the familiar aura he felt from Suho, The Emperor suddenly smiled brightly, showing his teeth with a vicious expression on his face.
[... Son of Death!]
FWAAA!
At that moment, a flesh hotter and more vicious than the boiling lava engulfed Suho.
