My Alter Ego’s Path to Greatness - Chapter 337

〈 Dragon and Dragon (1) 〉

A neat and tidy garden.

Two women were sitting across from each other in a small pavilion with a tea table in the middle.

“…is that you, Red Dragon?”

One of them, a woman with long blue hair neatly tied up, put down the teacup in her hand and opened her mouth with a small sigh.

“What do you mean?”

“Don’t act like a fool. Do you think it’s just a coincidence that Do-ol is over there right now?”

“Well, how do I know what that guy is thinking?”

“Red Dragon.”

In response to that calm questioning, the woman with short red hair who was sitting across from her frowned and clicked her tongue lightly.

The person who was quietly looking at her took a deep breath again and shook his head at the response that was practically no different from agreement.

“Why is that? You know, right? This is not just for our island, but for the whole world. He will be a key to that.”

“That’s why. You can’t proceed with such an important matter, trusting only someone who has no proof. “This is the minimum verification necessary for that.”

“Verification… This is the will of the Dragon God himself. You know….”

Quang!

Her calm words were cut off by the sound of the tea table being smashed.

A sudden silence.

The red dragon casually pushed aside the scattered remains of his shirt and calmly opened his mouth.

“Dragon God… Yes, the Dragon God. “The dragon god did not pay any attention even when the world came to this point and countless of our compatriots died to maintain the broken balance, but now he has come and said a few words as if he were benevolent.”

“…It’s not just that, is it? The Dragon God has already had ‘dragon children’ for a long time…”

“Ha! Ira the dragon. That’s a funny expression. It must be a sacrifice, not a child. Or does the Dragon God have a hobby of eating my children? “He is such an amazing person.”

“Sarin!”

“stop. Don’t call me by that name. I am now a red dragon. “You are a blue dragon.”

At those firm words, the blue-haired woman Cheongryong quietly closed her eyes.

A name that represents each clan.

It was only permitted to representatives of that clan.

It was also the name they inherited now that everyone above them had died.

“…Yes, Red Dragon. Anyway, I can’t sit idly by and watch the conflict with him grow bigger. “I think it’s because I already sent people to break up the fight.”

“Does not matter. It won’t be good for the fuss to prolong for no reason. Well, if it’s Dool, he’s a pretty useful guy, so just by holding out against him, to some extent…?”

The red dragon, who continued speaking calmly, stopped midway.

The blue dragon opened his eyes, which had been closed in that unnatural silence, and tilted his head to see her.

“Red Dragon?”

“…….”

There was no answer to her question.

There was some inexplicable confusion in his gaze, as if he was looking somewhere far away.

Blue Dragon noticed where she was looking and immediately moved his consciousness to another direction.

The beginning of the island, where a lot of commotion is going on right now.

To a place where there are visitors invited by her and Do-ol, Hwan-gye’s troublemaker.

‘…what?’

The first thing I saw was a sturdy back covered with dense muscles.

She momentarily decided that the magnification setting for the ‘line of sight’ was wrong, so she adjusted it without thinking…

and suddenly realized that that wasn’t the problem.

That’s because the surrounding scenery she saw along the way was exactly the size she first imagined.

Just one person.

Except for the giant back that first filled her field of vision.

“What is that…”

At that time, the defeated voice of the red dragon passed by her ears.

However, she had already forgotten what to say at the scene unfolding before her eyes and was unable to respond to those words.

Strictly speaking, he wasn’t the only big person there.

Dool, whose appearance was familiar to the blue dragon facing him, also had a large physique.

However, the composition was very different from what was first expected.

Kwaaaang—!

What you see there.

It was a scene where a large adult man was squeezing a furry human being that was only near his solar plexus without hesitation.

‘No, if you look closely, it’s not that one-sided.’

However, the difference in weight classes was so significant that Dool’s resistance to him only felt like a pathetic gesture.

It’s violence itself that completely captures and overwhelms one’s vision!

Blue Dragon, who was staring at this blankly, muttered without realizing it.

“…I guess I’ll have to send more kids to stop that.”

“Uhm….”

Of course, there was no disagreement.

***

“Kaaaa—! “I will kill you!”

“stop! “Go there!”

“Oh, back off! catch!”

“Spread out your ranks!”

The fight was extinguished before it intensified due to the sudden attack.

And in the chaotic situation where the extremely excited Dool was forced to calm down, Harley obediently backed away and gradually reduced her size to its original size.

‘Well, if you think about it, it’s strange that we’ve finally come here.’

This is their home base and Harley is an invited guest.

If it were normal, there shouldn’t be a fight in the first place.

‘Either it was really an accident caused by Do-ol’s unexpected behavior, so they couldn’t respond quickly, or…’

Their superiors tacitly induced and tolerated it.

But whatever the intention, he actually had no major complaints.

Thanks to the other side for taking the lead in fighting…

Mutter—gulp!

Because Harley was also able to have a satisfying ‘bite’.

‘As expected, it was a good idea to increase the size.’

He returned to his original size and nodded happily, stroking his hungry stomach.

In fact, that was the reason why Do-ol still glowed like that.

The difference in size was so great that with just one bite to the shoulder, the guy’s thick arm was almost torn off.

Although it was soon restored thanks to the excellent regenerative power of a body-wave monster, Harley’s “Gluttony” is an ability that even eats up the mystery contained within.

There was probably a considerable amount of energy consumed during the recovery process.

‘It’s none of my business. If you play with two monsters, they might end up biting each other. cancer!’

In fact, if it ends like this, is it somewhere?

The most reliable and efficient way would be to take the Neidan, which is the same as the magic stone of the monsters, but since it was not possible to do that right away, collecting new genes was enough for now.

He patted his stomach and began to calmly observe the “ultimate evolved life form” that had begun to react for the first time in a long time.

‘Interesting. It’s definitely a type of youkai from the Kangwhan world that I’ve never encountered before. It’s similar to a different race, but it also seems like a monster. I think it feels a bit like a spirit body…’

Unlike monsters where even the cells at the extremities have developed to maximize the energy called vital force, the energy circulation passage supplied from the center was prominent, which was a notable difference.

Perhaps this is the basis of the youkai’s martial arts system, which replaces the blood sword of humans.

‘I think I can complete the Gwangje trial faster with this.’

He twitched his lips as he felt the cells in his body evolving into a form more suitable for energy circulation.

After all, isn’t the exchange of various civilizations and ecologies the shortcut to evolution?

When he was smiling with such satisfaction and clenching his fists.

“That Gwangma? “Are you hurt anywhere?”

While the fight was in full swing, Cheong-gwan, who had been avoiding the area, approached and spoke cautiously.

“of course! On the contrary, after sweating lightly, I felt very refreshed and good! Hahaha!”

“Wow, that’s a good thing. So…”

He sighed in relief at Harley’s indifferent attitude and got straight to the point.

I felt like I wouldn’t be able to be expelled if I stayed with that man any longer.

“If it’s okay with you, can I guide you to the blue dragon right now? He said he would like to formally apologize for this incident.”

For him, the message he received from his superiors was a very good excuse.

I can quickly finish my work and get away from the eye of the storm.

***

A world located in a different phase from the continent dominated by humans.

Geumodo Island, located there, was a group of various monsters.

‘Actually, the term ‘youkai’ in this world is closer to calling all races other than humans a slang term.’

It included not only nine-tailed foxes and goblins, but also spirit beasts such as giraffes and Haitai.

And the being at the top of all the monsters was the dragon.

“…I’m reluctant.”

The woman with short red hair who was currently looking at Harley in front of him with squinting eyes was one of them.

Immediately after receiving an apology from the blue dragon for the commotion at the location where we arrived under the guidance of the blue officer, the red dragon that was proudly sitting next to him glared fiercely at Harley with its red reptile eyes shining.

As if I could see through everything inside him.

and-.

“You are a dragon slayer.”

From the first time we met, he looked at him with a subtle expression, and a clear hostility gradually appeared in his eyes.

Plus, I felt some kind of disappointment.

“…Red Dragon.”

“I know, Blue Dragon. “But isn’t this a different story?”

“But he…”

“Yes, I admit force, but that’s it. It’s better to be an ordinary human being, but you can’t even enter the Dragon Temple in the first place, so what can you do? “Isn’t this just an impossible condition from the beginning?”

“ha-.”

“This is ridiculous. I did it just in case. Still, I thought the dragon god had at least a conscience! But the key is a monster that ate a dragon and took its shell? “Are you really making fun of us?”

The blue-haired female Blue Dragon could not bear to continue speaking and closed her eyes with a sigh, while the Red Dragon continued to vent her fierce anger.

As if I had been betrayed by something.

According to that feeling, the surrounding energy stirred and an uncomfortable air enveloped the room.

‘what? ‘Why are they like that?’

Of course, Harley didn’t care about such things.

It seemed like there was a complicated story, but what was the point of knowing what other people’s circumstances were like when there was already so much to think about?

“Sniff!”

He crossed his arms with a snort, looked at them with a sullen expression, and snapped his neck mischievously.

“Well, you guys should talk about it later when you two are alone. “What are you doing here when you invite busy guests?”

“What…?”

The red dragon, who was in the midst of spewing out anger at him, looked back with a distorted expression, but Harley continued calmly without even raising an eyebrow.

“I’m already busy. Do you think I came all the way here for no reason? So, let’s get straight to the point.”

“her!”

At that confident request, not only the red dragon but also the blue dragon looked at us with bewildered eyes.

I was wondering what on earth they could believe and come out there.

However, Harley, who always welcomes a fight, just held her head high and made eye contact with them.

“…I’m sorry, but the story ends here. It is true that we called first, so we will allow you to stay for a few days. Just do some sightseeing and then leave. I will bring you a gift then. But that’s it.”

The Red Dragon, who was quietly looking at Harley, opened his mouth in a more subdued tone.

At those words, the blue dragon next to him, who drooped his shoulders as if dejected, didn’t complain much.

When she actually met him in person, it seemed that her opinions were not much different from those of Seokryong.

“Use it.”

Harley frowned at their subtle reaction and scratched the back of her head to organize her thoughts.

‘Just looking at it, I guess it’s a problem that I caught and ate a dragon and forcibly took on its karma?’

Well, even in Outerica, the great shaman recognized it at a glance.

Still, there was no problem if I just pretended to be a Yongin, but something seemed different here.

‘Oh, come to think of it, I’ve never encountered a real dragon in Outerica.’

Shurihatgen, the only dragon he knew, stayed in the lair and only observed the outside world with magic.

The situation is probably not that different for the other dragons that are still remaining.

What was even more surprising was that such karma was applied even though they were in different dimensions.

Aren’t dragons and dragons of different races to begin with?

‘No. ‘There are so many similar races in each dimension, including humans.’

When these gods created their creatures, there were several instances where unindividual elements came out, as if they shared sources with each other.

It wouldn’t be surprising if there was some connection between dragons and dragons.

‘…Should I throw it all down?’

At this point, everything started to get annoying.

I don’t know what they want, but didn’t they just come here to collect information?

In order to actively cooperate with them, we have been obediently complying with their requests so far, but if they go ahead with the military suppression, it would not be impossible to get what they want.

‘okay. They are working so hard to restore Kang Hwan-gye, but how long should I just keep an eye on them? Once you commit it…’

As my thoughts went to the extreme, a part of my head was slowly becoming stained with violence.

suddenly.

Another thought passed by.

‘Wait a minute, you’re saying the problem is that Harley ate the dragon?’

They want something here.

However, Harley did not meet that condition.

So, what if a talent who can meet the conditions… or goes beyond that and perfectly matches their tastes, comes forward instead?

‘There’s nothing to lose anyway. Just one last time.’

The worries didn’t last long.

***

“her?”

The red dragon opened its mouth in a daze.

“Ah…”

The blue dragon was equally mesmerized.

Where their eyes are directed.

In front of Harley, who nodded happily with her arms crossed.

“Ehehe—.”

The blond boy, who twisted his body as if embarrassed by the attention focused on him, twisted his hair with his small fingers and let out a harmless laugh.

““…Yellow Dragon?””

It was the moment when Horus, the young gold dragon of Outerica, came to the Kangwhan Realm to study early.
