115. Dragon Forest (1)

I remember the first day I met Romero and Deyan.

An audience room in ironclad security.

And the shadow who plays the ‘king’ in it – Deyan.

Those several layers of security are obviously designed to protect someone.

‘I was wrong from the start.’

Romero, the target to be protected, deceived his identity and went out freely, but Deyan, the shadow, existed in this tight security.

Even at that time, the king of Aerokk did not engage in external activities, and the state affairs were also conducted with the king over the blinds in the audience here.

The premise is wrong.

This layer of security was not meant to protect King Romero.

Dean.

It was Deyan from the beginning.

Also, Dejan’s letter of resignation, which flew to Grasco after informing Romero of the contents of the second semester practice.

“How can I ask about Deyan’s whereabouts?”

“I have an obligation to check his growth.”

“It has been He is growing enough.”

“Deyan’s growth is directly related to His Majesty’s safety.”

“It has been I’ll take care of myself. Besides, Dejan is no longer your student.”

remembered at the same time.

Deyan’s whereabouts in <Ah.Cheon.Mang>.

But I have no memory of him.

The sound of not appearing in the front of the worldview.

It can’t be.

If we were to define Deyan in one word, he was a god, the owner of Durandal. There is no way that such a being would not appear in the front of the worldview.

In the last battle, all the gods existing in <Ah.Cheon.Man> were used by the main character, Zeno.

So, it makes sense that the owners also appear at least once.

Durandal appeared, but its owner, Deyan, did not appear.

That means-

‘It means that its existence itself was destroyed before that.’

There is a theory that they died together when Aerok was destroyed within <Ah.Cheon.Mang>, but the problem is that the place where Zenon obtained Durandal was in a place other than Aerok.

It is a place made up of a heavenly barrier.

No less forbidden than the Fedur Mountains.

“Dragon Forest.”

The now-disappeared existence, the holy land of dragons.

“Is Deyan there?”

Romero’s face broke his composure.

* * *

Dragon Forest.

A place that has now disappeared, a place that is the home and grave of dragons.

It is also the place where the history of the royal family of Aerokk began.

“Professor Lucas, how do you… … .”

The complicated thread is slightly loosened.

The fact that Deyan is there… … .

head is dizzy

According to my setup, it was the holy land of the aerok family before it was a holy place for dragons.

If there’s a reason why Deyan is there… … .

In an instant, an absurd hypothesis flashed through my mind.

Dragon Forest and the House of Aerokk.

And the passage with the demon realm opened there.

As I fully knew the secrets hidden in the meantime, great confusion came to me.

I had a headache and needed some time.

Wait a minute too.

Lucas’ understanding understood all this.

‘Deyan… … Was it the bloodline of the real Aerok royal family?’

And at that moment-

Tsuzuzu!

something comes to mind

+++

The war between Aerokk and Ermel was in full swing.

Two lives were born in the royal palace of Aerokk.

A prince who is the legitimate heir of Aerokk, and a child destined to be the closest to the prince.

But fate prevented them from growing properly.

At that time, the spies were on a secret drug to the extent that they said ‘must be’ to both Aeroque and Ermel. A prince born under such circumstances was a sweet prey for them.

As a result, the king makes a difficult decision.

Changing the fate of two children born on the same day.

Thus, the fate of the prince and his servants were reversed.

+++

Settings that I have never described before suddenly fly out and play in my mind.

The lives of Deyan and Romero in front of them pass by like lanterns.

So, Dejan and Romero had changed from the beginning.

Dejan didn’t know about it, Romero knew it all.

All of his actions were to protect Deyan.

double trap.

The shadow was not the shadow, and the king was not the king.

It was weird from the start.

Durandal was a treasure of the Aerokk family before being a god.

At first, I thought it was bestowed to an escort named Deyan because the talent and physical ability of the real king was so poor.

But that wasn’t it.

In the first place, the real owner was Deyan.

“Is Deyan something your Majesty was hiding?”

“That, it… … .”

Romero didn’t open his mouth.

Well, it’s not really that important right now.

The fact that Deyan is in the Dragon Forest.

That is the most important fact.

“Send me to the Dragon Forest right now.”

Dragon Forest.

The reason why a place that used to be a holy place is considered forbidden.

This is because the demons make a direct connection with the demon realm there.

It will take a while for the monsters to pour out there, but the one who comes first is the biggest problem.

The biggest reason why the Igner front line collapsed in the original <Ah.

Kelidos.

aka puzzler.

The reason he got this nickname was because of his brutal murder method.

Because of his perverted and sadistic hobby of tearing up the body and reshaping it at will.

The dangerous bastard will be the first to cross through the passage that will open in the Dragon Forest.

The time when that gnome comes over is about a year and a half before the invasion of Grasco.

[LIFE TIME: 18 months]

So, it’s about this time now.

* * *

“It’s impossible.”

The answer from Romero was negative.

“It is… … it can’t be there You can’t even get in. You can’t even enter that place unless you’re of a permitted bloodline.”

A place where only selected bloodlines can enter.

Due to the pact with the dragon, it is not even possible to enter without permission unless you are of the royal family of Aerokk.

“… … Do you think Dragon Forest can protect Deyan?”

“What, what?”

“What Your Majesty believes in is the pact between the ancestors and the dragon. Isn’t it?”

Romero’s face hardened.

As if how did I know that.

Even so, the pact between the Dragon and the House of Aerokk is passed down only to those who inherited the throne among those bloodlines.

Like the barrier of this audience.

However, like this barrier, it is not readable.

just gossip.

Romero’s astonishment was even greater because it was a fact that was only passed on by word of mouth.

But what I do know is that it is a fact.

I am the author of <Ah.Cheon.Man>, which is the basis of this world.

All these worldviews were born at my fingertips.

And Romero doesn’t know the true secret hidden in the ‘Oath’.

“The blood of the covenant that dwells there shall be protected forever.”

“He, you uh, how did you get that, that verse… … .”

of course you know ’cause I made it up

“Your Majesty is being deceived.”

From the beginning, Dragon Forest was created to exist as a forbidden place, not a sacred place.

Why was the demon able to create a passage in the Dragon Forest?

It was a lie from the beginning.

There was no such thing as an oath with the dragon.

Needless to say, the kingdom of Aerok was born after all the dragons were annihilated.

It was a demon disguised as a dragon, and what they planted in the royal family of Aerokk as a pledge was the seed of the passage.

The condition for flowering is that it enters the Dragon Forest.

Then everything can be explained.

Deyan did not exist in the story of <Ah.Cheon.Man>.

The divine Durandal was discovered in the Dragon Forest.

“your majesty. Dejan is in danger.”

* * *

Dragon Forest is real but not real.

It was because the magic of dragons surrounded it and eliminated its existence from the phenomenal world.

To be precise, it would be correct to say that it was hidden.

It certainly exists, but it is a strange place that can be seen to exist in a completely different dimension like the Demon Realm or the Spirit Realm.

That’s the Dragon Forest.

That is why the demons built a passage here.

It belongs to the real world, but does not exist in the real world.

But no one can get in there.

There is only one way to get in there.

Use the key.

The key is – the divine Durandal.

As the power is only manifested by its owner, demons must not be able to enter the original Dragon Forest.

However, the invasion of the human world was already planned thousands of years ago.

The seeds for him were already planted hundreds of years ago.

And the seeds are now germinating.

* * *

‘Why are you here… … .’

This space that even the owner of Durandal did not know.

Deyan’s lord, Romero, has ordered you to wait here until the next order is given.

Romero’s escort before his servant. I cannot refuse his orders.

That’s why I came here without knowing English.

‘by the way… … Is the air cloudy here?’

It is difficult to breathe after entering here.

It wasn’t very clogged up, but a feeling of discomfort that sometimes seemed to tighten his heart took hold of Deyan.

“Uh-Bye!”

But the discomfort was becoming more and more painful.

“Ugh… … !”

Gradually, it became an unbearable ache, and his whole body rang.

Tung-

Tung-

Tuoung!

It’s like being tied to the heart of something huge and welcoming the beating with your whole body.

Tung-

Tung-

Tuoung!

Or something like counting down.

Bumpy bumpy!

And soon, Deyan felt something.

‘come.’

Fuhua aaah!

Deyan felt an unbearable vomit and vomited it up.

‘Hey, this is… … what?’

It was a huge, pitch-black sphere.

It was unfamiliar and strange that he could not believe that it came out of his own mouth.

Wow-!

Soon it ‘opened’ with a grotesque sound.

Deyan didn’t even have the strength to lift a hand, so he just watched it.

Knock-knock-

Tuk-Buk-

A strange sound echoed from within.

It was such a terrifying sound.

The sound got closer and closer, and soon the cause of the sound was revealed.

A huge body that appears to be about 2 meters tall.

Huge blades that seem to hang instead of arms.

And the creepy eyes that make the viewer feel endless fear.

“What, are you alive? weird. I thought you would only open the aisle and search.”

Those eyes reached Dean.

“What… … .”

chakang-

“It doesn’t matter if I kill you.”

His cutlery arms reached out towards Deyan.

“Wow!”

He stood up, using Durandal as a support. At the same time, he forcibly turned around and struck the approaching arm.

“Don’t resist. I will tear you apart and kill you.”

Talking like that’s normal.

There was no sense of crisis anywhere.

“It’s the first time I’ve come here to make a work, so if it doesn’t work, it won’t hurt only you, right? Will it be 1,000 pieces or 10,000 pieces?”

There’s a smile on his face-

Tub!

At the same time, he grabbed Deyan’s head and lifted it up.

“It’s my first time, so I’m going to do it lightly with 500 pieces.”

Deyan swung his sword and tried to get it out of his hand.

But the body doesn’t move.

As if foreseeing death, he did not listen to his words.

‘Damn it, damn it.’

Even if my body was in good shape.

No, even then, would you have been able to handle this guy?

He was angry at himself for being weak.

At the same time, the figure of someone came to mind.

A person who will be proud in front of this terrifying existence, with the hem of his uniform fluttering with his graceful footsteps with his unique lofty figure.

Lucas.

He will kill this demon with ease.

“stop. Get your hands off my disciple.”

okay. in this voice.

‘uh… … ?’

Spoon-!

It took a while for Deyan to feel strange.

The arm that was holding his head flew away.

“Looks like you didn’t hear my warning.”

“School, Professor.”

at the end of his gaze.

Lucas was standing there just as he had imagined.
