302fury. How to seduce the Dragon King (1)
seoul.
The undisputed capital of Korea.
It is one of the busiest and most complex cities in the world, with a population of 10 million..
Life in this city was truly dynamic..
The target was regardless of age or gender..
Sanitation workers roam the streets before the sun rises.
A salesperson who is nervous in the morning ahead of an important contract..
An office worker hurriedly crosses the crosswalk for fear of being late for work..
The bus driver who picks up such office workers.
A taxi driver, a former manager of a mid-sized company, quickly runs in front of the bus..
A self-employed chicken restaurant owner looking at a taxi and hoping for better sales today..
A college student sending a text message to a self-employed person for a part-time job interview.
Returning student dating a college student.
A professor who clicks his tongue and reads a returning student's report.
Even the delivery man who brought the professor's lunch and handed him a card.
In addition, it is a place where many people are busy living their lives..
That was Seoul.
And right here.
At the foot of an eastern mountain on the Laurasia continent, crossing several layers of the dimensional wall from Seoul..
In the guest room of the Count Frontera mansion, the Dragon King Berkis was scratching his side..
“Grumbling… … Puyuuuu.”
The Dragon King’s sleeping posture was truly perfect..
There was truly a flawless sense of leisure..
When the warm morning sunlight seeps through the curtains?
I scratched my side at a leisurely Andante tempo..
When a cool breeze blows through the curtains?
The hand goes up to the stomach and the scratching tempo speeds up to allegretto..
Then, when you hear the sounds of the mansion's servants working outside,?
He scratched his cleavage with a flashy prestissimo beat reminiscent of Jimi Hendrix's performance..
Of course, even during that time, the Dragon King never opened his eyes..
My eyelids are too heavy to open.
I'm tired of seeing the light.
No, actually, I just love sleep so much..
I just rolled around in bed and slept for days, days, months..
It was such a leisurely daily life that people in Seoul across the world would be so envious and sick to their stomachs..
But Dragon King Berkis didn't even care..
never woke up.
No one in Frontera territory could wake him without permission..
In fact, I challenged him several times to wake him up, but.
Many people tried to follow Lloyd's instructions, but.
Although the bone soldiers under Lloyd's orders worked hard day and night,.
Try shouting from the side.
I also tried playing the drum and gong..
I even had a really fun dance performance, but.
Nevertheless, Dragon King Berkis never woke up..
It was literally like there was no sleeping dragon, no, no dragon, in the guest room..
and today.
It's so warm, it's a morning similar to usual.
On behalf of the faces who failed to awaken the Dragon King over the past few months,.
A man with a meaningful smile quietly opened the door to the guest room where the Dragon King was rolling around and came in..
“Ugh. Our Dragon King, you are still sleeping like this..”
Lloyd smiled bitterly..
It had to be that way..
‘That sleeping position somehow seems the same as when I left the territory to find the clue to the jewel..’
It's not that it wasn't, it really was that way.
I was almost amazed by the surprisingly consistent(?) appearance of the Dragon King..
But now is not the time to just swallow your admiration..
Especially not when you are just admiring the Dragon King’s oversleeping..
‘The last core material of jewels. I have to go to Seoul to find it..’
Lloyd's lips with a bitter smile.
The smile disappeared from those lips..
Instead, the events of yesterday came to mind..
Here in the northwest of the continent, far away from the territory of Frontera..
These were the things I experienced immediately after winning a bet with Ice Dragon Tyranus on the Klamath Plains..
♣
“seoul.”
“……yes?”
Bingryong’s answer flew to my eardrums, shaking the air of the Great Plains..
Lloyd tilted his head in response..
And suddenly I thought.
‘What did that Bingryong say just now?.’
Could it be that he heard wrong?.
Or maybe the tension from the bet is released and your eardrums go crazy(?).
Without realizing it, he raised his eyebrows with suspicion..
I'm sorry, but I'll add the beat, so can you tell me one more time?.
I wanted to ask Bingryong like that..
But did Bingryong guess how they felt?.
Thankfully, I gave the same answer again..
“I said it was Seoul. Did you hear me well now??”
“……yes you heard.”
“To explain, it is a city of another dimension. It is the capital of a country, and it is a colorful and busy place with a huge population. Have you ever heard of it??”
“no.”
I answered quickly.
He added while looking at Javiel’s eyes..
“This is my first time hearing about it. But it's in another dimension... … . So what should I do??”
I wonder if Javiel will notice this sign..
I couldn't show it, but inside I was embarrassed..
It was truly absurd..
‘How did this happen? Why is Seoul appearing here? Also, how are you going to get to Seoul?.’
I was at a loss.
method?
It didn't even come to mind.
No, honestly, I didn't really want to go..
Could it be that I went there for no reason and couldn’t come back?.
I had some uneasy thoughts..
But don't you know how they feel?.
Bingryong Tyranus only gave a meaningful smile..
“What should I do? Hmm, how about you follow me first?.”
“Follow me?”
“Wouldn't it be wise to unfreeze this time, gather the key materials you can find here, and then get the answer?.”
“All right.”
Lloyd nodded..
When I heard it, it sounded right..
The second key material whose location we finally found out earlier.
And the third and fourth key materials found in the ice cave, the home of Bingryong..
The priority would have been to pack them up like sausages..
“Then please excuse me for a moment.”
I closed my eyes.
Focused on Manahat.
Unfreeze time..
The ice barrier that covered the area in a dome shape disappeared..
The cold energy that formed the barrier and froze the world's time has been recovered..
[Manaheart skill option, time freeze has ended.]
Kiyi…….
At that moment, Manahat was excited..
No, more precisely, I felt the heart of winter fused with Manaheart rapidly becoming cold..
‘Ugh.’
It felt like a frozen ice cream was slapped on my heart..
Without realizing it, my heart was pounding loudly and I flinched..
As usual, it was a cold that would soon melt away..
But this time was different.
Like frost forming in a corner of the freezer.
Once a cold spot appeared, it stuck to the heart and did not go away..
Even if I used my shabby mental skills, it was like that..
‘Tsk.’
Lloyd sighed and opened his eyes..
I could feel it with that sigh..
‘The side effects of the winter heart that Bingryong mentioned are real..’
No need to listen to any more complicated explanations.
Even if you don’t know the principles of magic or anything else,.
I was able to intuit it because of the cold that did not melt..
The side effects were real..
I also had a feeling that the side effects would get worse every time I used Time Freeze..
‘Tsk. For now, I'll try to absorb the heat with a calm mind and suppress the side effects as much as possible..’
Side effects are also side effects..
The priority now is to prevent the restoration of fate..
Reflecting on that proposition, Lloyd immediately moved..
We bid farewell to the centaur tribe..
I rode Yongyong and went to the snowy mountains in the northern part of the Great Plains..
Indeed, the second key material, Taupo, was there..
I took it quickly.
As expected, the reward was sweet.
Ding dong.
[You have acquired all 16 pieces of Taupo, the core material that makes up the Jewel of Truth..]
[You have succeeded in unearthing two key materials from Aotearoa, the jewel of truth that was destroyed with the end of the Mythical Age..]
[This is a historically rare excavation achievement..]
[In the future, when the Jewel of Truth is restored, your name will forever remain in history as the excavator of key materials for the Jewel..]
[As bonuses for these rare achievements, you will receive a large amount of special RP..]
[2,200 Earned RP.]
[RP you currently own : 3,955]
‘yes!’
My fists suddenly clenched..
I earned 200 more RP than expected..
But Lloyd was not satisfied with that level(?).
‘There are two more things left that I can take care of right now. therefore…….’
“Bingryong, no, sir, the great Dragon King Tyrannus.?”
“……Tsk. Let's go then.”
As expected, Bingryong’s magic was great..
Everyone here, including Haviel and Yongyong, was teleported to the room with a gesture..
I thought a slight motion sickness-like sensation passed through my body..
When I opened my eyes, the scenery had completely changed..
Not the top of a snowy mountain where the sharp wind blew.
It was in the middle of a very quiet glacier cave..
There were two key materials for jewelry there..
“Do you see that??”
“yes.”
The deepest part of the glacier cave pointed out by Bingryong Tyranus..
I saw a big, beautiful stone stuck there..
The third and fourth materials were 'Hauraki' and 'Takapuna'..
Of course the reward was sweet.
This time, they received 2,400 RP and 2,600 RP respectively..
The total amount of RP was 5,000..
Thanks to this, my current RP has increased to a whopping 8,955.!
But still Lloyd wasn't satisfied..
Whether the RP received is 5,000 or 50,000.
It was an RP that I had no use for right away anyway..
Now, there was a much more important and urgent problem at hand than the enormous RP reward..
‘of course. The last key material. Because that's what's left.’
I have to find that too.
If you can't do that?
All key materials discovered so far will be useless..
All the time and effort you have put in so far will end up in vain..
He was someone who absolutely wanted to avoid such an opening scene situation..
So I definitely wanted to find the last key material..
“So, I've been thinking about it carefully since a while ago. Could it be that Dragon King Berkis, the son of King Taeyong... … Can you send me to Seoul??”
“her. Did you guess that??”
“yes. You said that it was Berkis who sent the last core material across the dimension..”
“So I think he can send you across the dimension.?”
“yes.”
“That's a good guess. It's also the correct answer.”
“Well, then… … if…….”
“if?”
“Is it possible to provide a round-trip service that sends you to the dimension where the city of Seoul is located and then returns??”
“Hmm, maybe?”
Bingryong shrugged his huge shoulders..
“Dimensional travel is a difficult magic. No, it's not just difficult. I'm not good at it either. But it is possible with Dragon King Berkis. Because it was the magic he created in the first place..”
“Are you talking about Berkis??”
“okay.”
Bingryong nodded..
“In any case, there are only two people in this world who can send something to another dimension and return it precisely at the desired time and space coordinates..”
“If there are two?”
“My son, Dragon King Berkis. And my daughter, Kkotbun... … No, Flores..”
“Verkis and Flores…….”
“okay. They are genius siblings who carry on my blood. Anyway, Flores is currently traveling, so his whereabouts are unknown. So, the only being who can safely send you to another dimension right now is Verkis. For your information, the place where he is sleeping is a demon dragon from a place called Gapel region.…….”
“It's not in the oyster, it's in my house..”
“her?”
Bingryong paused..
It was a look that asked what that meant..
This time Lloyd shrugged..
“I'll be rolling around in my house sleeping. Well, there were various circumstances..”
“What are the circumstances??”
“Well, roughly…….”
Lloyd's mouth opened..
The process of receiving Dragon King sponsorship membership.
As a result, Berkis was brought to Frontera territory and put to sleep..
I briefly explained what I experienced with the Dragon King..
Of course, a smile appeared on Bingryong’s lips..
“Huh. That's him. He’s like that guy. If you do that, you'll be going home now, then?”
“Yes, that's right. That’s what I’m saying.…….”
“I won't go.”
“……I haven't asked you to come with me to Frontera territory yet.?”
“You did it now, right? Subtly, with all my regret and selfishness,.”
“…….”
“Don't take the continued favor for granted?”
“……Yep, sorry.”
Lloyd clicked his tongue in disappointment..
Bingryong is the father of Dragon King Berkis..
Should I take him with me and ask him to move to another dimension?.
Then wouldn’t it be easier to ask for favors?.
It was true that I was secretly hoping.
But look at Bingryong’s attitude.?
‘I guess I should get out of here..’
I got the feeling that I might be crossing a line..
As soon as I realized that, I retreated cleanly..
Instead, I asked for only the last service(?)..
It was a teleport that would allow you to cross from the glacier cave to the Frontera territory in one click..
and now.
This morning.
like this.
From the glacier caves of Antarctica to the hallways of the guest quarters at Frontera Estate..
I came across it in just a few steps..
‘And then I saw this figure still rolling around..’
Lloyd chuckled, putting aside all the things he had been thinking about..
Guest accommodation at the mansion.
The Dragon King still rolling around.
I knew it as soon as I saw it.
Ah, this sleeping dragon hasn't woken up even once..
He said he had to call his wife every morning, but he ignored that and just slept soundly..
‘Thanks to you, I am grateful. Because an attractive card was automatically created to elicit the cooperation of this sleepyhead..’
Lloyd grinned..
Hmm, I cleared my throat..
He recited softly to the sleeping Dragon King Berkis..
“Hey, Dragon King? I am now your wife, no… … I brought you the Dragon Queen.?”
The moment that one word flies softly and tickles my eardrums.
“……!”
Goi(?) The sleeping Dragon King opened his eyes..
