The 31st Piece Turns the Tables - Chapter 492
Episode 492
: This is an illusion brought about by fire and wind.
Or an old memory locked away by Azanic the Celestial Dragon.
It goes back to the times when his clan prospered across time and era.
The age of dragons.
Ajanik was young at that time.
Tadadat…
“You can’t run in the Azanic Library.”
“… yes.”
An ancient dragon wearing glasses smaller than his pupils scolds Azanik.
“ha ha ha! Guys, Ajanik got scolded again.”
“… Quiet.”
“I told you not to run like that…”
Baby dragons of similar age to Azanik. They were walking through the dragon library in human form.
“The reason you shouldn’t run in the first place is because of the rule that mortals can be surprised. “Why do we have to pay attention to small lives?”
“Ugh…”
“Azanic…”
“Ignorant…”
Including Tancrid and Zig Carciella. Everyone frowned when they saw Azanik.
“It’s because we, the dragon race, are their teachers.”
“Fragile beings must be treated delicately. “It’s basic for a gentleman.”
“That’s why you’re not popular… Azanik.”
The black-haired boy snorted.
“In the first place! Don’t let it into the library! What are you doing to spread knowledge? Knowledge is the exclusive property of the strong. The ones below…”
“Azanik.”
The red dragon Zig grinned.
“stop. “Before you get angry.”
“Ugh….”
“I like you. “Except for those dangerous thoughts.”
“….”
“Come on, Azanic. Let’s stop talking in the library and go outside. Shall we fly together for the first time in a while?”
A boy named Zig knew Azanik well. What does he like best?
“… good!”
“ha ha ha! Look at it! “Are you going too?”
“huh. “If we don’t fight again.”
“I like it too.”
Ta-ta-tat-!
“you! “You can’t run in the library…”
“Hahaha!”
The playful young dragons ran out of the library.
Sigh…
Sigh…
They suddenly transformed into dragons and flew through the sky.
Floating Barnes.
It was one of the greatest cities of wisdom in Gorgosia, the land of dragons.
The place where the first silent dragon, who possesses all the wisdom of this land, nests.
Later, the dragon land Gorgozia and the floating castle Barnes were submerged in the ocean, but that was a story from a very distant future.
Ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss-!
Azanic Tankrid Jig Carciella.
Azanic is black.
Tancred is green.
The jig is red.
Carciella is blue.
Their appearance can be expressed simply like this, but the mental world within them is three-dimensional.
free.
The world where they rule the sky.
“….”
“Azanik, are you still upset?”
The black dragon stuck out its snout.
“I don’t think I’m wrong.”
“You…”
“Healthy discussion! At Barnes, we always encourage healthy debate. “As long as it’s not a fight… right, Tancred?”
“… huh.”
As Carciella looked around and took in the atmosphere, Zig chuckled.
“Can you tell me what you think, Azanik?”
“Little lives are foolish.”
“why?”
“Even though we are the ones who rule over them, they still think of a being called God, right? “Those who have never actually seen God.”
“Hmm… I guess that could be possible?”
“what?”
“We weren’t the ones who created them.”
“….”
“The first dragon gave knowledge to the dragons and then closed his mouth. He did not deny the existence of God.”
“That doesn’t mean God exists.”
“It also doesn’t mean that God doesn’t exist.”
The story of Zig and Ajanik continued.
“Did the first dragon see God?”
“You must have seen it. Because he is the one who witnessed the birth of all life in Pandea and Gorgozia.”
“You know… then.”
Azanik asks.
“Is this all new to the first dragon?”
“… what?”
“The birth of life, the birth of demigods and the embodiment of evil… is this all a first?”
“What do you want to say?”
Azanik hesitated and opened his mouth.
“Perhaps… there was a world older than now?”
“Why do you think that?”
“Well… that’s strange. We learned everything from the first dragon. Then, who did the first dragon learn that vast knowledge from?”
“… quite a sharp insight!”
“Haha! really?”
Carciela, who was next to him, was also impressed.
“Azanik! what? What did I eat wrong? “How did you suddenly become so smart?”
“I’m naturally smart!”
“okay okay. Still, among the words the first dragon said was something like this.”
Carciela spoke as if singing.
“The day will come when the silence will be broken. “Then you will know everything.”
“You mean you’ll tell me later in the end?”
“Ahaha… That’s right!”
“The first dragon is disgraceful….”
“That’s right, it’s disgraceful…”
Azanic asked.
“Why are we born with the duty of protection?”
“well? “Perhaps because we are strong?”
“Species stronger than us are also awakening.”
“Because we are wise?”
“There are a lot of things we don’t know. I only know a little bit. “But why are we protecting Pandea and Gorgozia?”
“I know.”
Tancrid, who had been quiet, opened his mouth.
“Because we love this land the most.”
“….”
“… Oh my.”
“Oh my god, Tancred….”
Zig closed his eyes and tilted his head mid-flight.
“You mean right.”
“Well… you mean right.”
“Why are you doing this… I was just saying this.”
“Ahaha! There was no lie in Tancred’s expression as he said those words. that’s right! Dragons are the beings that love this land the most. And even the lives that stand on that land.”
Barnes, where they studied, had a tradition of everyone saying hello at the end of a discussion.
In particular, those who were influenced by the other person’s will had to say the same words that Zig and Carciella said. They prided themselves on showing respect for each other after heated arguments.
Because it was a noble and beautiful culture.
Because it was a mindset that was flexible and tolerant of others.
“I am not.”
“Azanik!”
“I don’t love.”
“….”
“I don’t love those who make mistakes and don’t repent.”
Tancred laughed bitterly.
“You will learn.”
“… what?”
“The first dragon didn’t teach us emotions. We realized it ourselves. Colliding with newly born beings. “Ajanik, wouldn’t you be like that too?”
“….”
Azanik did not hate Tancrid. Because hatred has not yet sprouted within him.
Because he did not lose his warmth toward his fellow countrymen.
“I guess I hope it turns out as you said.”
“huh.”
Zig told a different story.
“Actually, there are other problems as well.”
“Ah…”
“Hasn’t it been a while since no new dragons were born?”
“… huh.”
“Maybe we are the last generation?”
“now!”
“Eek… I just said that because it looks cool. do not be angry.”
Carciella huffed and slapped Zig.
“Ahh! Falling? Falling?”
“Fall. joy.”
“Hahaha… What are you worried about…. The Azanic wyrms are talking. “Our time will one day end.”
“… I heard it too.”
“We must work hard to teach the little lives so that when that time comes, this land will not be abandoned without our touch.”
Zig laughed.
“I hope I won’t be disappointed when that time comes. “Even if I have to leave this land… I hope it’s with you all.”
“Ugh… I hate it so much.”
“Carciella, come here.”
“go away!”
Azanik chuckled.
That brief laugh gave me hope.
And time passed.
“… Azanik.”
“Zig… Zig!”
“I went first… sorry.”
“Don’t go, Zig!”
When the Age of Dragons came to an end, Zig died. It was the aftermath of a war that swept the continent.
Fuuuuk…
The blade dug into someone’s skin.
“Thank you Ajanik. And Tancrid…”
The mad dragon Carciela loses his life at the hands of his one-time companions Azanic and Tancrid. Their mission to protect the land led to the death of their comrades.
“… Tancrid.”
“….”
“Do you still love this land and life?”
Tancred laughed bitterly.
“huh.”
One day, Azanik lost his expression. This is when he lost his place, lost his parents, and finally lost his close friends.
“Not me.”
“…Azanic little lives need time. Give them time. Surely… they will prove it. … their own worth.”
“I will become God.”
“Azanik!”
“I will become a god and make everything right. “I will reign over this land again.”

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
?
Azanic burning in flames.
“We’ve already come a long way…”
Wherever his wings passed, there was only flame and wind. I flew through the sky, hated by everyone.
“Chase!”
“Kaaaaaaak-!”
Grumbling…!
Those who fall to the bottom, engulfed by the flowers of fire in full bloom in the canyon.
Tancred, did you die for such foolish people?
Azanik’s eyes lost focus.
He flew while enduring tremendous pain. His mental strength was amazing. His spirit flies straight even though his body is burning with fire…
“… this is proof.”
Azanik finally passed through the final Wind Gate of Wing Canyon.
“I was right, Tancred.”
Kwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
The moment Azanik left Wing Canyon, he took two actions.
Giiiing…
By drawing on Atromil’s power, he put out the fire on his body and healed his wounds.
Kwaaaaaa!
He then spewed a fireball and destroyed the last door.
There are several expected results, but they all lead to the same conclusion.
In this way, the pursuers were shaken off.
Piiiiiiiing…
Passing through the 5th door, Azanic accelerated and flew away thanks to the power of the wind.
When he reaches the Federation, he will eventually become a god.
It’s over.
A long time of patience.
He who has endured for a long time will finally achieve victory.
Kwaaaaaaaaaa!
Azanik couldn’t believe it.
One wing was pierced by something.
Crrrrr…
“I was waiting for you, Azanic.”
“… Tancrid. “Are you still going to tell me I was wrong?”
Tancrid’s daughter Tantu’inu struck Azanik’s wings with her breath.
“It is judgment day.”
Tantu’inu flew towards Azanik, who was recovering from his wounds.
* * *
Kwaaaaaaaaaa!
Kwazijijijijik!
5 doors were broken.
This will have a completely different result than if all 4 doors were destroyed.
Kurururuk…
– The wind trapped in the canyon will disperse. If you get swept away, you will die, so preserve your life.
Cairo spoke using Koopa’s body. The wind trapped between gates 3 and 5 will all disperse when gate 5 is destroyed.
Some may return to Wing Canyon, while others will fly away and float somewhere else.
Whatever it was, Ajanik’s twilight flight was over. He will accelerate through Wing Canyon and head towards the Federation.
The wind released from Wing Canyon will help him elude his pursuers.
The broken fifth door meant that no one but Ajanik could accelerate with the help of the wind.
It’s over.
“Ugh….”
“Now… it’s really over.”
Those hiding on the outer wall to avoid the fireball shook their heads as they looked at the howling wind.
I couldn’t read the wind.
can’t fly
It was then.
Kwaaaaaa!
The red-hot light stopped in the air, as if something was wrong with Azanic, who was moving away.
last chance.
This was the last chance to reach Ajanik.
But everyone hesitated.
No one can fly in a storm.
There is no one who does not know that the beginning and end is death.
That’s why I couldn’t fly again.
… And that’s why there was someone who took flight again.
Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
…
“That…”
was the Tancia that was swept away when Azanic collapsed the 5 gates.
One lens of the airscope was broken and looked unsightly.
Pak-!
Snowfall and Tansia threw away their flying glasses.
Giiiing…
Paaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
Tansia strikes out.
It rises without wavering like an arrow piercing a storm.
Drudduddud…
The wind from the canyon blocked their ascent, but it was no use.
“I’m catching up!”
Crumbling!
The black light formed a line and headed towards the dragon in the sky.
– It’s really… beautiful.
The will of protection left by Tancia and Tancrid was decorating the last night of the era.
It could be seen from anywhere in the North. It’s a gorgeous night. Everyone pray for hope.
Even at Spuno Volcano, guarded by Razin.
At Horus, the spiritual mountain where Deki resides.
Even on Mount Jorun, where Baldu is located.
And even in the Frozen Federation.
Paaaaaaaaaaaa!
Accelerate.
The night sky is full of stars.
Rising black meteor.
Paaaaaaaaaaaa!
Accelerate.
Dawn was coming.
A new dawn was coming.
Paaaaaaaaaaaa!
Accelerate.
Ajanik’s appearance was captured in the snowfall. We have finally reached him.
“Ajaniikik!”
Azanik bit Tantuinu’s neck and threw him away.
Whoa whoa…
Tantu-inu couldn’t control his body and fell down.
Rumbling…
“Come, Tancrid’s will. “I will persevere.”
The atromil all over his body burned blue and swelled.
“damage! Tancia!”
“… No, I won’t avoid it.”
Tansia took a deep breath.
The smell of sulfur that Azanik would give off already stung my nose, but I only had one breath to spare anyway.
Hmm…
I puffed out my cheeks.
What should I do now?
– Now here. Open your mouth…
– Cheeoeoeook….
– Cheer up, cheer up. pour it out
– Spill it out?
– I told you. Let it out with the intention of pouring out everything you have.
Teachings of Maktus, the Primordial Drake.
Kwaaaaaaaaaa!
Azanik’s breath created a blinding light.
I have to spit it out.
We must confront it.
Tansia exhaled, squeezing all the strength she had.
Kwaaaaaaaaaa!
The Milky Way spreads out.
A river of stars that will quell the flames of anger.
– Weak… Is your heart only that strong? It’s a kid.
– It’s not a kid.
– Then louder!
Tansia’s eyes widened.
Kwaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
A world that pours out endlessly.
Maktus was a man who was far from breathing. But I knew love.
If he sees Tansia, he might be smiling somewhere.
– That’s right, it’s a bit better.
Saaaaaaa…
Azanik’s breath was pushed into the Milky Way.
Burning…
An ecstatic flame enveloped Azanik.
Tansia and snowfall were not visible in sight. It was obvious where they had disappeared to.
Whoa…
they floated higher than Ajanic.
Kangseol said to Azanik.
“Dragon…”
A previous memory came to mind.
Yes, something like that happened.
– Dragon… the day we meet again…
the day Tancrid sleeps.
Were these two the same back then?
– You will fall.
The snowfall rushed downward toward the blade of the spear of sorrow.
“Fall.”
Sssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss-!
Crumbling!
Black lightning pierced my chest.
“… okay.”
Azanik looked at the sky and fell.
His wings did not function.
The clumsy man and the troll kept their promise.
The anger also faded.
What have you been obsessed with so far?
Now that he has lost everything, he is finally free. Suddenly, the sky where he flew with his comrades came to mind.
There’s nothing else left now.
No, now even that will disappear.
I had mixed emotions.
The laughter of his lifelong enemy, Kha-Zan, and the quiet speech of Tancrid sounded like auditory hallucinations.
It falls.
crash
It was so natural for them to look down on me that I had no choice but to accept the fall.
“Tancred….”
They proved it.
You have the right to stand on this earth yourself.
Yes you mean right.
“Damageeee!”
Tantu’inu flew up and shouted.
Bleep-
the atromil bomb will explode within a few seconds. Not only Azanik but also the opponents he fought were not safe.
The aftermath of the explosion could have even reached Wing Canyon.
Azanik’s pupils were getting blurry and he mustered up his last remaining strength.
Yiiii…
The last dragon blood left in his body will work its magic. A magic greater than any magic he had ever used in his life.
Azanik chuckled.
Tancred, you have won.
your will.
your love
“I will love you until the end.”
Azanik rolled his body into a ball, as if he had returned to the beginning.
Whoa…
A round sphere surrounded the Atromil bomb.
Kwahiah ah ah ah ahhhhhhh!
A huge wind blew along with the explosion.
It was a wind like a storm.
All the vegetation shook and the mountains shook from the impact.
Phew…
But that was all.
Dust like blue petals spread like rain, signaling that everything was over.
Today will be different from yesterday.
It’s okay to stop praying.
Dawn finally arrived.
[The twilight flight of the sky dragon Azanic is stopped.]
[The king of the new era will soon be decided.]
…
