When Minhyuk saved Ruan and his guild members, he only took five minutes. It was because Minhyuk couldn’t ignore Ruan after seeing him have a dejected look while dying. He could not pass by like nothing happened when he saw that.

Before he knew it, the troops that had hidden behind the bushes and the wooded areas with Prince Argon had begun to run at a high speed. After a long time, Minhyuk was finally able to see Philip Village. It had become a bunker in the middle of the war. He could also see the swarm of enemies that surrounded his friends.

Among the chaos, he was also able to find the face of his father. He could see his father fighting a fierce battle against a huge dragon made out of bones. He could also see that they were starting to fall and be pushed back.

‘Those bastards!’

His dad was a special person to Minhyuk. He remembered the fact that his father was PKed and forced to log out in the past. That was why he came running without any hesitation. And that was also the reason why he felt a huge amount of anger towards the Bone Dragon Lord.

His troops kept on running on horseback. But at that moment, he saw that the Bone Dragon Lord tried to devour his dad.

Minhyuk quickly took out his ‘Instantaneous Movement Parchment’. The instantaneous movement parchment was an item that he had purchased in the Royal Shop. It was an artifact that was vastly different from the return scroll. In the case of a return scroll, one needed to designate a village or an inn where they could return to. If you named it as ‘Return to Ber Village’ then it would send you back to that village. On the other hand, the instantaneous movement parchment was a special parchment that could allow the user to teleport to the place that he had seen with his very own eyes. It could also allow them to move to a place where they had previously been even if it was not a village or an inn.

Just as he was about to tear the parchment, notifications rang in his head.

[The Monarch’s Seeds have borne fruit.]

[You will be able to call for 500 ancient soldiers for 4 hours.]

[Ancient Soldiers will appear once you say ‘Summon’.]

‘Ancient Soldiers……?’

That was when he learned about the identity of the ‘Monarch’s Seeds’. The Ancient Monarch, the Food God’s subordinate, had suffered greatly after being controlled by Verus. As a weapon that could be used against them, he hid his troops in the Monarch’s Seeds.

“Summon.”

[It will take about 1 minute for your summons to appear.]

However, Minhyuk did not have the time to wait for them to be summoned. So he quickly spoke as he tore the parchment.

“Kong-ah, I’m leaving the rear to you.”

Oiink!

Flash—

As soon as he tore the parchment, a bright light flashed and he disappeared. Since the parchment was only meant for one person, Kongie, who was sitting snugly on his shoulder, fell down on the horse.

Ooiiiink!

Although they were suddenly left in a fluster, Kongie just grabbed the reign of the horse as he drove fast. And Argon just muttered to himself……

“A pig….. Is driving around a horse…..”

It was quite a spectacle. It was something that Argon had never seen in his 3,000 years of elf life.

***

Black Dragon saw the hellhounds clinging on to the walls of the bunker. He also saw them exploding themselves. With such an outcome, the members of the Black Dragon and the Boys failed to switch. They were now starting to be pushed back.

He quickly gave the orders to Britney and Destiny.

“Wipe out the enemy!”

Kiyeeeeeeeee!

Kiyeeeeeeeee!

The two of them roamed the skies as they tried to stop the influx of the enemies. But at that very moment, the Slayer of Death appeared in front of him.

Crack!

As soon as the Slayer of Death shook his wand, huge bones broke through from the ground as it started to form into a gigantic creature. The creature that was slowly beginning to form was none other than the great and gigantic Bone Dragon.

And along with that, the notifications began to ring.

[You have met with the Bone Dragon Lord.]

[The Bone Dragon’s Sphere has been triggered.]

Graaaaaaaaa!

Black Dragon heard a loud roar accompanying the notifications.

[Britney’s Breath is sealed for 5 minutes.]

[Destiny’s Breath is sealed for 5 minutes.]

“…….!”

Britney and Destiny were dragons from the four legendary dragons. However, the problem was that they had not yet reached and achieved their full growth. At best, they were still at the young dragon stage. But the Bone Dragon Lord that was in front of them looked like it was already close to full growth.

In fact, the information and content about dragons had not yet been fully released in Athenae. These were dragons! The strongest creature in this world!

The Bone Dragon Lord was similar yet different to a dragon. If we’re talking about bone dragons, then Genie, Khan and Locke had also hunted them in the Time Attack Dungeon. But they were the weakest among the Bone Dragons that had ever been born. On the other hand, the creature in front of him had already almost achieved full growth and it was also one of the highest-ranking members of the bone dragons.

The Slayer of Death, who had summoned the Bone Dragon Lord, had a deep and dark smile on his face. Even though his strength in dark magic had risen considerably in terms of summoning the dead, he could only summon the Bone Dragon Lord for about half an hour. But that was more than enough. He was also aware that Destiny and Britney were nothing more than fledglings. They were no more than young dragons at this stage.

‘I’ll kill them and turn them into an undead……’

His mouth almost got torn with how wide his nasty grin was.

Britney and Destiny were flying furiously.

Crack

Bang!

The two of them bit all over the Bone Dragon Lord’s body but the only thing that they got were aching teeth.

Unlike ordinary mobs, the bones of the Bone Dragon Lord were sturdy, solid and hard. The bones were hard enough to match against that of a real living and breathing dragon.

Graaaaaaa!

At that moment, bone blades sprouted all over the body of the Bone Dragon Lord. The blades stabbed and penetrated through the bodies of Britney and Destiny.

Kihyaaaaaack!

Graaaaaa!

[Bone Spear.]

[The skin and flesh pierced by the bone spear will melt rapidly and will induce extreme pain.]

Britney and Destiny fell to the ground. They writhed and struggled hard. They could feel the terrible pain of their skin melting.

The Bone Dragon Lord approached so it could finish them off but Black Dragon blocked him.

‘Britney…… Destiny……’

Britney and Destiny were both very precious to Black Dragon. Even though they were just creatures born in this virtual world, they were still his friends and family in this world. Even if he died, he would just come back to life but he knew that these children would not.

Black Dragon glared fiercely at the Slayer of Death and the Bone Dragon Lord. Even if his neck got sliced through by a sword, he did not want them to touch these children.

Britney and Destiny who felt his feelings through their ‘connection’ trembled as they struggled to stand up.

Kyahaaaaack!

Kihyeeeeee!

They were grasping at their last straw to protect Black Dragon. Even if they staggered and fell down with their shaky legs, they still struggled to stand up.

“These punks……”

Just like the saying, sometimes animals were purer, more innocent and better than humans. They were creatures that purely loved and cared for Black Dragon.

“You won’t be able to touch these children. Even if you put a blade to my neck!”

“Hoo?”

The Bone Dragon Lord took one step forward as it opened its huge maw.

Graaaaaaa!

Whether it was Britney or Destiny, it did not matter. They heard the voice of the man who cared, loved and wanted to protect them.

“You’ve touched someone that you shouldn’t have touched.”

Suddenly, a cold and sharp voice rang loudly.

The Slayer of Death and the Bone Dragon Lord looked up. When they looked up, they saw a gigantic frying pan quickly descending down on them.

‘Frying pan?’

At that moment, the Slayer of Death couldn’t help but smile.

That’s just a giant frying pan, can that even scratch the head of the Bone Dragon Lord?

In addition, the bones of the Bone Dragon Lord had a ‘Break Armor’. In the event of an attack, the impact would be returned to the weaker mineral, weapon or armor. In worst case scenarios, the opponent would even have their weapons shattered.

That huge frying pan is going to break.

Then…..

Baaaaaaaaaaang—

A loud noise erupted from the point of impact as a cloud of dust rose in the air. The face of the Slayer of Death who was smiling earlier was now filled with shock and wonder.

‘That frying pan…… is sturdier……. than the bones of the Bone Dragon Lord?’

He could even see clearly that the head of the Bone Dragon Lord was slammed.

Rhond slowly turned his head around. He could see a man with a now smaller frying pan glaring fiercely at him.

“I’m going to show you what happens to people who mess with this person.”

Minhyuk had already sharpened his teeth to devour him.

‘Alive……?’

It was somewhat akin to being alive. This human felt alive. And he was even able to ram the Bone Dragon Lord’s head in the ground. Of course, the Bone Dragon Lord was still not dead yet.

Then, he heard the sound of fierce fighting from behind him.

It’s changing.

‘It’s like the winds are changing……’

Just like the wind that was previously blowing eastward could flow westward, it seemed like the forces of the humans were now forcing them back.

And Black Dragon who was staring at him from behind…..

‘I thought that you’re still young.’

This was his son that was suffering from bulimia. When Minhyuk got sick, Black Dragon had made up his mind to become this child’s pillar.

Let’s not frustrate and worry this child.

Perhaps he believed that his child was still young and still needed his protection but before he knew it, his son had already become a splendid ‘adult’.

“You bastard, who the hell are you? Why are you talking nonsense?”

Meanwhile, the Slayer of Death woke up from his thoughts as he held back a laugh as he asked him that question. Suddenly, the Bone Dragon Lord was caught up in a surprise attack.

Baaaaaaaaang—

The Bone Dragon Lord jumped up as it rushed towards Minhyuk furiously.

Kiyeeeeeeeee!

Minhyuk even presented himself to him.

“Scattering Sword.”

He used the Scattering Sword that condensed the damage of eight basic sword attacks into one! A powerful and overflowing force slammed at the Bone Dragon Lord’s body.

Baaaaaaang!

Crack!

At that moment, they heard a crack from the bones of the Bone Dragon Lord.

‘…..?!!!’

It’s not just his frying pan. This bastard’s sword is built with a harder mineral that can ignore the Break Armor!

Meanwhile, Minhyuk noticed that one shouldn’t think about cutting this punk’s bones. He could just break it down. So he picked up his frying pan once more. His huge frying pan.

Then, he used his Rampant Sword with his frying pan. Dozens of afterimages of his frying pan slammed constantly at the Bone Dragon Lord’s body.

Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!

Crack, crack, crack— Crack, crack, crack—

The Bone Dragon Lord also had a tremendous regeneration ability. As soon as its bones cracked, it would immediately stick back together. But right now, the Bone Dragon Lord’s bones were beginning to crack to the point that it was beyond repair.

Baaaaaaaaang!

As soon as Rampant Sword ended, Minhyuk used ‘Like the Wind’ to narrow their distance by three meters. And he followed his attack with Sword of Fury.

Shweeeeeeeeeek—

The Sword of Fury had a tremendous force. And even though what he was using was a frying pan and not a sword, the power that was condensed in it was still tremendously huge.

The Sword of Fury could now kill enemies within a two meter radius with the strong wind force that would come out of the attack. It even had an additional 100% damage on the enemies.

Baaaaaaaaang!

Then, his last attack slammed on the Bone Dragon Lord.

Shweeeeeeeeeek—

At that exact same moment, a fierce and bitter wind blew strongly as it tore the surrounding area around the Bone Dragon Lord.

“……?!”

The Slayer of Death was shocked to see that the Bone Dragon Lord flew back and rolled on the ground.

And Minhyuk finally answered the question ‘Who are you?’ that he had asked earlier.

“His son.”
