Episode 14 of The Chronicles of Darkness
verb
“Hey, look! Let’s go together!”
Jeong Gwang shook his head at the sound coming from far behind him.
“Are you really coming?”
The old, grayish voice was heard again.
“I woke up after listening to your advice! It doesn’t matter if you are the Dark Duke or anything else! “I’m serious!”
“yes yes. “Then do it.”
Jeong Gwang lost his nerve and squinted his eyes as he walked through the huge cave where the thick darkness stretched out endlessly.
A bright light was coming from the corner of the cave.
‘If you want to light up, you have to light everything from the entrance, why… … Yes, it could be so.’
Jeong Gwang, who changed direction and learned the reason, smiled happily.
It is said that dragons are very greedy and are storing up a lot of treasure in rares.
Countless gold and silver treasures were illuminating the surrounding area, reflecting the light pouring from the night lights embedded in the ceiling.
And it wasn’t just that.
Unlike other people who were astonished and froze like stone statues, Jeong Gwang was amazed as he watched the giant creature lying still in the center of the treasures.
‘It’s really amazing.’
I was amazed that it actually existed even though it looked different from the eastern dragon, and I was surprised that it was larger than expected, but there was something even more impressive.
‘It’s so bright everywhere it’s dazzling, can you sleep? ‘And that long?’
At that time, the dragon slowly raised its lowered head and looked at the light with its huge yellow eyes.
Jeong Gwang was not embarrassed and asked politely.
“Hello, Elder Dragon. “Do you know how to speak human?”
“… … .”
“First of all, you don’t know Provenure. I am Jeong Gwang. “Excuse me, but what is your name?”
“… … .”
When the dragon still said nothing, Jeong Gwang scratched his head.
“You don’t even speak the common language. In this way, it’s not much different from the lizard guy. Estelle, do you know dragon language?”
Estelle, with a white face, motioned for her to stop talking, but the dragon answered instead.
[I am Muntvar. There is no dragon language. Dragons communicate psychically.]
“and! I can hear it in my head, not with my real ears. “Is it possible to talk to anyone in the world like this?”
[Yes.]
“awesome. I’m glad Zao isn’t a dragon. But can you sleep in this environment?”
[It is not Yamyeongju that emits light from the ceiling. It was made to glow with magic to wake it up.]
“Are you talking about dragon language magic? Light, disappear! Please say this just once. yes?”
[…] … .]
The dragon named Muntvar looked at the concentrate for a moment and then said something else.
[I became curious because there was a human with a soul similar to that of a demon. I woke up earlier than scheduled and watched what they were doing. That person has something interesting other than a soul filled with condensed evil.]
-Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu… … .
Yeok Cheon-gyeong trembled slightly in Jeong Gwang’s arms.
Jeong Gwang grumbled after placating him with a slap.
“It’s fun. Useless… … “He’s almost useless.”
[If a demon or god had heard what you said, they would have been embarrassed.]
“Is there even a race called the Gods?”
[If there is darkness, there is also light. It has become a myth to humans, but those two races came in and out of this world.]
“It means I haven’t been here for a while. “Why?”
[This is because the fight between them has intensified. In the end, they decided not to allow either side to enter and sealed the doors to this world with items that humans consider sacred. It’s because we don’t trust each other.]
“I’m a Taoist, but I don’t know if I can keep hearing things like this pseudo-religion. Anyway, whatever. “Is this guy one of those items?”
When Jeong Gwang asked while tapping his chest, the dragon answered.
[It is the highest level among them. The door leading directly to the center of the demon world is sealed. In the past, there were sometimes crazy people who tried to get their hands on it and summon demons. Is that still the case these days?]
Jeong Gwang thought of Cheonyomun (天妖門) and shook his head.
“There were people who fell into that pseudo-religion about twenty years ago. “How do you break the seal?”
[I can’t tell you. All dragons, including me, are bystanders. It is neither good nor evil and does not take sides.]
Estelle, who was listening intently even though she was afraid, and Blanchard, the magician of the Probugne court who followed behind, opened their mouths.
‘So, it’s neither good nor evil?’
‘That kind of person. No, the dragon is recorded in every history book as an extremely ferocious evil dragon?’
The dragon seemed to understand the reaction of the two people and explained it carefully.
[Humans think I am an evil dragon, but it is a misunderstanding. It is a difference in way of thinking.]
‘… … !’
The two people’s mouths opened further.
Estelle had heard from Dragon about the ‘difference in mindset’ that Jeong-gwang used every time he made an excuse, and Blanchard couldn’t imagine what kind of mindset it was to destroy several countries by acting on a whim over trivial matters.
But Jeong Gwang understood.
“It must have been difficult. “I know how you feel.”
[…] … How do you know?]
“I often get that misunderstanding too. It was like that just before. Lord of Hell, Grand Duke of Darkness? “He talked about a person he didn’t know and accused me of being him.”
[…] … You deserve to hear that.]
The dragon drew a clear line.
[The humans were wiped out with a spirit similar to that of a demon. His words and actions are also different from other humans. It is a unique entity that makes me curious. Where are you from and who are you?]
“I guess you will figure it out little by little. Can you please turn off the light first? “I want to see Yongeon Magic in person.”

[…] … I just woke up. Do it in moderation.]
“Are you still sleepy after sleeping for so long? “You’re not taking time out to fully recover your strength, are you?”
The dragon’s mood, which seemed to be drowsy, changed in an instant.
The dragon spoke proudly, looking more majestic than anything in the world.
[The strong do not tell lies. There is no need for that and it is more troublesome.]
“Oh, of course. But other people didn’t know.”
[…] … Do you know the pain of having no equal in the world? This means that there are no friends or enemies.]
“I mean. “I wish the world knew how boring and lonely it is.”
[…] … .]
The dragon glared at Jeonggwang and then got up from its prone position.
His body rose high and stopped.
[I knew you were unusual. I didn’t know that it would destroy my composure and even dare to start a fight.]
“No, why does someone who doesn’t like being misunderstood have such misunderstandings…” … .”
[You’re on my level? Are you, like the ants outside, easily viewing what I did in the past, believing that I did my best? As expected, humans are ignorant.]
“If you don’t believe me, check it out now. Estelle, court wizard. “You two, go far away.”
Estel stopped running without realizing it. Thinking about it again, this wasn’t really true.
She turned around, glared at him, and growled.
“I will refrain from being overly considerate. I am a colleague… … It’s a bit like that. I’m not shameless enough to abandon my group. “It is right that I also take responsibility for what you and Zhao did.”
Jeong Gwang grinned.
“It’s similar to what the person who treated Estelle tried to frame her before, but it warms my heart. “Mage, stay strong too.”
“Oh, no, look. Assuming that’s what my wife wants. Why am I… … “Huh!”
Blanchard felt aggrieved and protested, but it was already too late.
I don’t know when or how Jeonggwang jumped up to the level of the dragon’s face and struck down the dark red sword, but the dragon was flicking it away with its long claws.
Chaeaeang!
Jeong Gwang, who had been flying backwards due to the impact, spread his arms wide and spun around, then fell back onto the dragon’s head.
Blanchard’s eyes grew so big that they seemed about to pop out.
“How can a person be like a bird…” … .”
“What is that? “There is also a dragon.”
Estelle made a loud noise, grabbed the pole she was carrying on her back, and unwrapped the cloth wrapped around one end, revealing rice straw.
She urged, holding the broom between her crotches.
“Get on quickly.”
“Oh, no, I…” … .”
“Are you reluctant because I’m a witch?”
“Well, it’s not that, I’m scared when I go up to high places… … .”
“Shut up and get on! If you don’t like it, just die!”
Kwaaaaang-
When Jeong Gwang swung his sword at the ceiling of the cave, the dragon swung its front paw and smashed the huge stone that fell straight down.
As the fragments flew in all directions, creating holes in the walls and floor, Blanchard closed his eyes and climbed on the broom.
“what are you doing? “Don’t hold my waist.”
“I’m sorry.”
As soon as Blanchard hugged Estelle’s waist, the broom flew straight up, and the stones thrown by the dragon hit the spot where the two people were, making a loud noise.
Estelle sighed in relief and reprimanded the wizard.
“Anything is fine, so try using some magic. “I can’t do anything because I’m using flying magic.”
“What kind of magic can a human like me use on a dragon…” … .”
“Except Jeonggwang because he doesn’t even look like a person. Look at Zhao. “Can’t you see it?”
“… … !”
It looked clear.
A man who was so ordinary that it was almost strange disappeared and reappeared repeatedly like a ghost, brandishing a sword with a mysterious wave pattern on the lower body of a dragon, and then shouted loudly.
“Sober! Even if you use the Damascus sword taken from Arabia after killing the Sultan, you will only get scratches!”
“Even with the sword given to me by the Sultan? “Don’t swing it, but chop it like you would an axe.”
Zhao faithfully followed Zheng Guang’s advice, circling like a bird in the air. It disappeared for a moment, opened the air, fell down, and stabbed the dragon’s foot with its sword.
Break!
“Okay… … “Hmm!”
The dragon kicked with a blood-curdling foot, but Zhao was barely able to escape into the ground and then appeared from a distance.
Jeong Gwang praised the dragon, who was looking away, as he slashed his shoulder with a cloud serpent.
“good job!”
“Your sobriety is also great!”
The dragon was angry at the actions of the two people.
[It’s noisy even when fighting. die.]
The dragon opened its mouth wide and let out breath. Tremendous flames poured out and attacked the two people.
Estelle, who was floating in the air, cried out in sorrow.
“Concentration! Come on! huh?”
Jeong Gwang appeared from behind the dragon in an unharmed state and swung his sword.
Zhao, scorched by flames, came out of thin air, sat on Blanchard’s shoulder as if riding a wooden horse, and apologized.
“I’m sorry, the broom is too short and there’s no room to sit on it.”
Estelle forgave Blanchard’s behalf.
“are you okay. Court wizard, what are you doing? “You need to use ice magic to cool down the heat.”
“Ah, I understand.”
Estelle changed direction and watched Jung Gwang flying around and fighting the dragon.
Instead of looking like the devil lord he showed when fighting Battenberg, he had an air that felt like a monk who had been celibate his whole life and devoted himself to the world, as he had briefly shown to the Marquis of Evreux.
‘… … ‘Which one is real?’
The dragon knew exactly.
I nodded, looking down at Jeong Gwang who took a moment to catch his breath.
[The reason why I was not devoured by the condensed soul of evil was because I also had this goodness.]
“Everyone is like that. Are dragons different?”
[If you’re talking about your heart, it’s the same, but I’m talking about the martial arts you use. Good and evil are both good and bad, both in character and in martial arts. You are truly human.]
“What about dragon magic? “You said you were a bystander, so it’s neither right nor wrong.”
[Check for yourself.]
The dragon’s yellow eyes turned pitch black.
[[Pierce.]]
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-
“… … !”
Jeong Gwang was really surprised.
The ground I was stepping on was cracking open, threatening to reach hell.
The dragon ordered again, staring at Jeong Gwang, who had jumped up to avoid falling.
[[Blow.]]
Wooooow-
A typhoon-like wind blew and hit Jeonggwang.
“It was real!”
Jeong Gwang was amazed as he unfolded the eight cloud dragon formations to avoid the wind.
But it wasn’t over yet.
[[stop.]]
With just one word, Jeong Gwang’s new form stopped as if it were nailed in the air.
“uh? haha. ha ha ha.”
Jeong Gwang made a dumbfounded expression and then smiled brightly.
The dragon slowly approaching for the finale asked.
[Why are you smiling?]
“Because it’s fun.”
[Your death?]
No way.
Not only did I use the partisan martial arts I learned in the central plains, but I also used all the assassination methods I learned in Persia, the Kalaripayat I extorted in India, and even the curse I collected in Africa, but I didn’t get much damage. Wasn’t it like this that happened after a few words from the dragon?
“no. Yongeon magic, it’s really fun. “I didn’t know there was a method in the world to make me like this.”
[Now that I know, I no longer feel unfair.]
“Iknow, right. “I’ll show you something in return.”
Jeong Gwang raised one corner of his mouth and opened his demon spirit and spirit energy at the same time, mixing them in the middle of the battle.
The people of Sandangjeon identified nature keepers wandering around and accepted them by opening the stone gate of Hadanjeon.
The natural cycle went from the lower to the middle, from the middle to the upper, and then back down again, repeating in a natural cycle.
Jeong Gwang’s whole body became golden as he became one with the guardian of nature.
The anti-demon spell worn on his wrist reacted and emitted a dazzling light.
Without lifting a finger, Jeong Gwang released everything he had been holding with his will alone.
Brilliant gold light poured out from his entire body and engulfed the dragon.
Hwaaaaa-
martial arts,
