74. Black Dragon’s Power (4)

“Scream… sound?”

When Jin tilted his head and asked, Misha hugged Murakan.

“Nyan?”

[Miya?]

“And you must never enter the room.”

How the alternative treatment is going…

I was curious, but I decided not to ask. She was the only one in the world who could bring Murakan back anyway, so there was no point in worrying about it.

‘I’m sure it’s an incredibly painful treatment in any way. Cheer up Murakan.’

Murakan was quietly in Misha’s arms, unaware of the pain that would soon come upon him.

“Thank you very much, Mischa.”

“See you later.”

Clap-!

The sound of the door closing was exceptionally heavy. Jin and Shuri looked at each other and narrowed their eyes.

And after a few seconds, screams were heard.

Kyaaaaaaa-!

A sharp purring sound unique to cats was coming through the tightly closed door. Kyahak Kyaaak! Shuri, startled, even scratched at the door as if to open it, giving goosebumps at the noise.

[Miyaa…!]

“Oh Shuri. It’s just Mischa treating Murakan. don’t worry.”

“…you must have started.”

Quikantel, who happened to be passing through the hallway, stood next to Jin and said.

I just told Shuri not to worry, but in fact Jin couldn’t be relieved like that.

That’s why it’s okay for Quikantel, right? I was going to ask. She’d been talking to Misha all night, so maybe she’d heard something more.

However, Quikantel’s face was dark.

Even the appearance of biting his nails with his arms crossed made him look like someone who had committed some crime because he was nervous.

“Quikantel?”

“Hu should be able to hold on well.”

“Can you stand it?”

Anxiety spreads rapidly.

“Ah, didn’t Mischa tell you?”

“What are you talking about?”

“This treatment is not simply about returning Murakan to his true form. If that’s all you need to worry about. Mischa said she plans to restore Murakan’s old powers as well.”

Kyaha! Kyaaah!

Murakan’s screams continued to be heard from beyond the door. There was also the noise of something like gears turning, but I couldn’t hear Misha’s voice at all.

“Does the fact that we have to hold on well mean that Murakan could die if something goes wrong while trying to restore it?”

“Ah, that’s not it. If that was the case, Mischa would not have proceeded with the treatment without telling you.”

Quikantel waved his hand.

“So what?”

“They said that if the operation fails, all remaining strength will be lost, even if life is not affected.”

Jin’s eyes widened.

In an instant, anger flared up at Misha.

It was because he felt that if it was a surgery with such a risk, Misha should have discussed it with herself or Gilly at least once.

But at the same time, it was understandable.

‘If it were Murakan, I’m sure… He would have said he would do the surgery even if there was such a risk.’

Hearing from Murakan himself and from those around him, his old powers couldn’t even be compared to what he is now. It was at a level where it was possible to ‘win’ with Temar Runkandel.

It was said that he overpowered all dragons in the sky, and the inaction he saw himself when dealing with Faitel, who had recently incarnated as Julian, was truly terrifying. To the extent that the modifier ‘great black dragon’ is not lacking at all.

Murakan, who had been like that, was now in a state that could not be said to be stronger than Quikantel or Jin, the target of his protection.

If the two of them face a desperate situation when they are together, it will be Jin, not Murakan, who will protect the other.

So there was no way Murakan wouldn’t want surgery.

Not all guardian dragons that exist in the world are stronger than the contractor, but it was the general mindset of guardian dragons that they should be at least ‘not lacking’.

As if reading Jin’s thoughts, Quikantel added a word.

“Misha seems to hate Murakan, but this time, Murakan ran right away as soon as something went wrong. We will do our best, so let’s wait a few days.”

“What did you say the chances of success were?”

“They said it was about 50%.”

“It’s not very low.”

“What the hell is this? It looks like the cat is screaming, but Murakan-sama is…?”

This time Gilly passed through the hallway and stopped at the door.

When Quikantel explains it once again, Gilly becomes contemplative in an instant. Jin held her trembling hand.

She too had the same thoughts as Jin. If it was something like that, I wondered if I should have told you in advance, but I came to the conclusion that Murakan-sama would have done it.

All three couldn’t leave the hallway.

Naturally, colleagues came to visit one by one, and each time the number of people standing in front of the corridor increased.

“Oh, Mr. Murakan…! I think everyone who listens is sick. How worried are you, sir?”

“Confucius Gilly. You will definitely get through it.”

“Eat one of these and wait.”

Around lunchtime all the colleagues gathered in front of the hallway.

The screams continued uninterrupted into the night. There were also more and more dull sounds and bursts, like something breaking.

And just before midnight, the companions heard for the first time a distinctly human moan.

Aww!

It was a completely different sound from the cat’s cry that seemed to be tearing up until now, and it was definitely Murakan’s voice.

After that, the sound of a cat’s cry and a human’s scream could be heard alternately. During the treatment, Murakan is going back and forth between human and cat forms.

While colleagues are getting more and more disturbed.

The screams died down and the door opened.

The party was able to look inside for a while through the opening of the door, but the whole room was full of bloodstains, and lumps of dark aura were floating all over the room. Murakan’s appearance could not be confirmed.

“after!”

Misha steps out into the hallway wiping the sweat from her forehead.

She looked at her colleagues gathered in front of her, her eyes widened for a moment, then she shrugged.

“What kind of fun are you gathering here? Looks like Quikantel informed me. He’s thinking of arguing with me…”

“I don’t think so. Since you know Murakan better than we do, you must have decided on the operation. Is he okay?”

“Right now. But I have to do this for a few more days. We can’t be at ease yet.”

The evil smile she showed earlier was nowhere to be found, and her face was very tired.

No one else knew, but Solderlet’s contractor, Jin, was aware of how many auras she used throughout the day.

The mighty aura that I felt when we first met had faded considerably. It was a part where you could see that she was putting all her energy into treatment.

“I am tired. You should eat something and rest.”

“I will prepare it soon Missha. Is there any food you would like to eat?”

Surprisingly, Misha gave this answer to Gilly’s question.

“Strawberry Pie. If not, another pie made with fresh fruit.”

Siblings were siblings.

* * *

Misha started treatment around noon each day and finished it around midnight.

A week passed like that. As time passed, the frequency of human screams spread more widely than cat cries in the room.

“Today is the last hurdle. I don’t know what kind of hardship this is because of my younger brother.”

Misha looked at Jin and her colleagues with a blank face.

Whether or not he overcomes that hurdle, starting today, Murakan will be able to become a dragon again and be with his colleagues.

Aww!

When the treatment began, more violent screams than ever followed.

But the cat’s cry was not heard at all. It was because the unstable state of transformation between humans and cats had disappeared.

There was no way to know how time passed until night. Everyone was staring at the tightly closed door, barely suppressing their uneasiness.

Even if Murakan loses his power, the attitude of his colleagues towards him will not change.

But can Murakan himself bear the fact? Because of that question, the party couldn’t put their mind at ease until now.

“It’s almost midnight, young master. Please… I hope you are safe.”

It was at that moment that the screams from inside stopped. At the same time, the noise of various treatment tools also died down.

Colleagues waited with bated breath for the door to open.

Knock…!

As soon as the door opened, what appeared was Murakan, a man with dark long hair.

As soon as he saw his colleagues, he smiled.

“It’s been a while, everyone.”

“Murakan!”

“Murakan!”

A voice that is strangely dignified unlike before.

As soon as Jin saw Murakan, he remembered the first time he met him in the storm cellar. As young Jin felt at that time, an overwhelming energy was buried in his eyes and attitude.

The operation was successful.

Colleagues sensed the fact even before Misha announced the results.

“Ha ha ha! Yes, I am Murakan!”

Suddenly, Murakan burst into a mad laugh. His colleagues flinched and had no choice but to step backwards because of the mighty energy contained within them.

Whoops…!

It was only a laugh, but cracks were opening in the thick stone walls of the corridor. Something that was never possible for Murakan about 40 days ago.

“This is it! this is me! Kheukheuhaha billion!”

baek!

Murakan’s neck snapped. It was so intense that a normal person would surely die.

It was because Misha had hit him hard on the back of the head as she left the door.

“Did this turn? who is screaming loudly I was almost going to lose my eardrums from your screams for a week or so.”

Murakan jerked around and glared at Mischa, then burst into laughter again.

“Anyway, thank you, I lived thanks to you. Thank you, don’t give me a hug! Come closer.”

“go away.”

“Yeah, that’s what I just did. I hate it too. Now then, go back to your house. I’m going to have a little party to celebrate with my friends. I’ll pay for the trouble later.”

“Oh, talk more. It seems that the power has returned, but there is nothing very visible. Wake up when you speak nicely.”

“I wasn’t going yet… Oh billion! 100 million!”

Knock Knock Knock!

Misha’s fist threw Murakan’s body all over the hallway. Even at first glance, her punches and kicks were at least 8 star power.

Murakan took all of them and didn’t shed a single drop of blood. It was difficult for the teammates to know whether they should be surprised by Misha’s beating or admired by Murakan’s durability.

“Your old strength has only returned to about 40%, brother. It means that if you mess around, you might get lost.”

After about 20 beatings, Misha threw Murakan roughly and said.

“This… You only returned 40% on purpose, didn’t you? If you put it back properly, I’ll be stronger than you!”

“At the level of thinking. give it 5 seconds If you don’t bow down and thank me right away, I’ll make you a cat again.”

why me!

The moment Murakan was about to shout, Jin and Gilly grabbed Murakan at the same time. Then he was forced to lie down.

“Thank you for your hard work Missha.”

“You guys had a hard time waiting too. I’m pissed off, but just like he said, I’ll have to go back now.”
