The World-Class Extra’s Walkthrough - Chapter 81

Episode 81:

Dance with Dragons

It was very simple to take out the erethnium using the earthquake bomb.

First, Carls and I take out our sword spirits and cut deep into a corner of the cliff.

This ‘earthquake bomb’ is installed in the deep hole created in that way.

“…and boom.”

It was very simple.

[‘Small seismic bomb’ is activated.]

[Very dangerous. Evacuate immediately.]

Rurrrrrrr….

The item began to operate, and a gentle vibration was felt even beneath our feet as we stood back from a distance.

And the next moment.

Kwaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

Part of the mountain was broken into pieces.

A corner of the cliff was cut off and it fell down.

The Seismic Bomb is not a bomb, but an item that induces seismic waves that cause nearby minerals to vibrate at the same time.

Therefore, if you can control it properly, you can split the rock cliff as you want.

As a result, the cliff was neatly split, as if it had been carved by an ax wielded by God.

“Wow….”

“Oh my God….”

It was quite funny to see Kals and Tyrvaen side by side with their mouths wide open.

“Are you that surprised?”

“…If this isn’t surprising, what in the world is surprising?”

“No wizard would be able to change the terrain in such a simple way. “That’s amazing.”

is it?

In my opinion, this dragon egg is more interesting.

‘It must be a difference in perspective.’

I smiled quietly and slowly approached the collapsed cliff.

Between the collapsed rocks, pieces of blue metal the size of the palm of one’s hand appeared.

This was erethnium.

< Eresnium >

[Mineral] A gem known to strengthen all substances and give powerful vitality to living things.

Status: Unprocessed Ore

This rare metal lay near the rare, as if prepared to be fed to hatchlings.

‘Actually, there are metals that are harder to find than erethnium.’

‘Callicodeum’ has the strongest strength among metals.

‘Migalunium’ received God’s blessing from the ground.

‘Obiotin’, which changes its shape using magical power…

These metals were more difficult to find than erethnium.

but.

‘In terms of value, erethnium is undisputedly number one.’

This was a ranking that applied equally to all living things, not just humans.

Why?

‘First of all, the supply of erethnium is far short of the demand.’

Let’s take ‘Callicodeum’ as an example…

Calicodeum is usually used as a material for weapons, but because of its immense strength, there were not many blacksmiths who could properly handle it.

‘You have to be at least a high-level dwarf blacksmith or a top-level elf blacksmith to touch it.’

And once Calicodeum is processed, it becomes an almost unbreakable tool.

Therefore, although it is true that it is worth the price, it is a metal that has little supply and therefore little demand.

Other rare metals were similar.

Although extremely rare, they all had their own unique uses and were valued according to the intersection of supply and demand.

That is how value is created in the first place.

‘But erethnium is a little different.’

Erethenium was a precious metal recognized as having great value, especially by wizards.

The effect of strengthening substances and revitalizing life had endless possibilities for use as a magic ingredient.

But it wasn’t just wizards who were looking for erethnium.

Priests of the temple.

Knights in the barracks.

Different races of forests and deserts.

‘Even ordinary NPCs unrelated to battle.’

Everyone wanted erethnium.

The reason was simple.

Because this metal has very low strength….

Tduduk.

It was so big that a person could split it by hand.

‘It even has a low melting point, so it’s easy to mix it here and there.’

So everyone couldn’t help but covet it.

And for me…

crispy.

It’s perfect to break it into pieces like this and feed it to hatchlings.

It would be quite cute to see the little dragon gobbling this up.

“Now, shall we pick it up?”

Carls Tyrvaen and I slowly started walking around and picking up erethnium.

“If we sell all the erethnium here, I will be able to afford a mansion in the middle of Certion.”

“Oh, it looks like you want to open a new home soon?”

“…yes? “What do you mean?”

To pretend not to know.

“Let’s not pick things up relentlessly, but just pick up as much as we can put in our inventory.”

“Hmm, is that okay? “This precious thing?”

“Anyway, the road this way is a restricted area, so no one can come in.”

“I don’t think the necromancers of the Far East would care much about such things.”

…Necromancers of the Far East Sea.

‘Yes, there are quests like that.’

Although they were one step away from the three-way battle between the Imperial Revolutionary Army and the Beast Tribe, they occasionally entered the continent and wreaked havoc.

The revolutionary army became a punching bag for necromancers and often fought small-scale local wars within its territory.

‘But I don’t think I’ll ever come here.’

If something happened, it would have to be resolved at that time.

By then, I’ll probably be flying around with dragons.

‘It looks like we’ll have a fight with the Duchy of Wyler now.’

…Well, that’s not bad either.

I chuckled, imagining what was happening in Auracus.

“It looks like the degradation is over.”

“I see my inventory is full too.”

okay.

“Then let’s go back now.”

Go back to Aurax through the abandoned monastery.

[‘Red little dragon eggs’ are in the process of hatching.]

[Current progress is 31%…]

* * *

It was around the time we returned to the abandoned monastery and had dinner that we heard the strange sound the dragon eggs made.

Now I was lying on the bed, holding a small nest of eggs in my arms.

“You damn guy doing that makes you look like a hen with eggs.”

“Master, if you get a dragon, you will take a warmer attitude than this. “I will guarantee it.”

After eating a full meal, I lie down and feel drowsy.

Carls was already dozing off.

Still, I rotated the magical power slowly and made sure to convey the feeling of my magical power to the hatchling inside the egg.

It was a very important task to imprint my presence in advance on the hatchlings that would soon hatch.

‘And moving magical power is more fun than I thought.’

Manipulating the magic power emanating from the Mana Heart was similar to slowly stirring one’s limbs in warm water.

Although I was slightly out of breath, there was a gentle and warm feeling surrounding me.

And it was a very special feeling to see the water moving according to my will.

‘You poor guy Gilroshan.’

The owner of this body has never been able to enjoy something so good.

So I felt pity and sorry for Gilroshan at the same time.

Can I enjoy this luxury with this guy’s body?

Somehow, I felt like my heart was being stabbed.

But the little witch who was staring at me suddenly opened her mouth and said this.

“This is the beginning, disciple.”

“…?”

What are you talking about all of a sudden?

“What do you mean by beginning?”

“It means that your life is just beginning. “You frozen, deathly prince.”

…my life begins now?

I couldn’t help but laugh at those words, but couldn’t say anything.

It was because I felt like my hidden feelings had been revealed.

“So, don’t make a sinister smile that doesn’t suit someone who has just entered magic. Do you understand?”

“When did I smile slyly? “It was a warm and sweet smile.”

“A smile like that is not something someone like you can do.”

“Ah, Master’s Sir Silion is enough, right?”

“…Shut up.”

While Tirvaen and I were exchanging silly jokes with Kals sleeping soundly between us.

It was at that moment that Yongran made a sound.

Crunchy…!

The small egg suddenly started shaking and almost jumped out of the basket.

“What the hell!”

Startled, I stood up.

Of course, the sight of the egg shaking back and forth was familiar.

“…no way?”

Hatchling!

Now, this little dragon was trying to come out to the outside world by cracking the egg that had been surrounding me all along.

I couldn’t help but be embarrassed.

‘What happened? Isn’t it time for this yet?’

The progress I checked before dinner was only 79%.

So, to get to 100%, it had to be at least this morning.

But…

for some reason, it has started hatching now.

‘What on earth!’

[The hatching progress has reached 100%.]

[The shell of the ‘Red Little Dragon Egg’ is breaking!]

“Oh my! Yongran is waking up! What should I do? “What should I do now?”

Tyrvaen completely forgot about the old witch cosplay and was making a fuss like a 19-year-old.

“Wow! A dragon’s egg? Are hatchlings coming out now? Lowering?”

As a result, even Carls woke up and was struggling.

Wow, I’m crazy!

“You two, be quiet!”

“….”

“….”

Now, let’s calm down.

As I looked at the egg that was constantly wriggling, I pulled out all the memories in my head.

I am going to review the information I know about hatchlings one by one.

‘This is a case where the hatching of dragon eggs progresses rapidly without the player checking…’

Yes, there was a point to be made.

This was clearly ‘the sign’.

…Then it’s a big problem.

‘For now, let’s wait a little longer.’

Crispy crispy.

The surface of the cracked egg gradually breaks.

And through the gap, I could see a small sparkling eye.

It was as small as a sesame seed, but its bright red eyes.

“Beep…”

It was the same color as the Emperor Bareshan I had seen in my fantasy.

But, unlike the madman, the hatchling was crying softly at me.

It was trying its best to break the eggshell and come to me.

“Beep beep beep.”

The birth of a new life of unparalleled wonder.

“….”

Everyone, including Karls Tyrvaen and myself, was at a loss for words.

In particular, I was shaking with shock and joy.

‘This is completely different from what you saw in the game, isn’t it?’

It was just computer graphics with an egg breaking and a small dragon popping out.

But now this was truly a sublime scene of a living being.

After such a short and long moment….

“Beep, beep, beep.”

A very small and beautiful little dragon finally cracked the egg and came out.

I gently hugged the cute guy and lifted him up.

Then, an indescribable hot feeling arose in my heart.

Is this like a parent’s feelings?

‘Is it okay for me to feel this after only holding it for a day?’

[A new dragon is born and begins to follow you.]

[You can name the dragon.]

“What will you name your dragon?”

I felt like I suddenly came to my senses at the question of Carls, who was smiling.

Sure enough, the color of the hatchling that was born was ‘that color’.

…black.

The egg I picked was a troublesome ‘black dragon’ born with a 1% chance.

‘What is this?’

I was in serious trouble as I saw the baby dragon squirming at me.

Is it really okay to raise this guy?

“….”

Sorry hatchling, but I couldn’t help but review it.

< Black Dragon >

[Monster] Among the powerful dragon clans, the size of their power varies greatly. No one knows how strong they will grow into.
