Chapter 966 – Separation
Past.
The moment Malachia spat that out, Dre could see the memory running through his mind.
Ten thousand years ago.
“Pryunar has disappeared.”
Eldran, who was the substitute Dragon Lord at the time, said.
“The true demon has sealed itself. Now we must protect this world.”
We are the guardians of the world and the ones who manage it.
Malacia, who was still only a hatchling, questioned the other proud dragons.
Why are we the guardians of the world?
Why are you the manager of the world?
Curiosity.
And academic fever.
That was the essence of Malachia.
Even the elder dragons took a good look at Malacia, who longed for new knowledge, not infused knowledge.
Dragons always inherited ‘memories’ that must never be forgotten.
Malachia has been able to receive memories that are only shown when he becomes an adult since the time of Hetzling.
The memories that should never be forgotten were about two things.
One is the dragon lord Amastia.
A guardian of order and a dragon god who goes up to the divine realm and is still ‘trapped’, taking care of dragons’ convenience and keeping the gods in check when they cross the line.
Malachia’s eyes twinkled at the existence of the Dragon Lord, who could rival or easily surpass thousands of gods who were absolute gods in other worlds with only their own strength.
“Why is such a strong person imprisoned?”
The old dragons laughed and showed other memories.
It was a very, very old memory, long before Pryunar appeared.
The era of the beginning.
The past, farther than when Pryunar appeared and the true demon sealed itself.
The days of chaos, when the gods had not yet staged that funny ‘game’, but competed to rise above each other, expand their territory, and become absolute.
The gods are strong.
No matter how weakened their powers were when they came to the dimension of Ryunar, the best among the dimensions, they were once absolute gods.
Their fight was so huge that it destroyed nature and took countless lives.
It was inevitable that dragons who considered themselves to be the guardians of the world would collide with them.
Dragons were strong. Unfortunately, the gods were stronger.
The problem was that the dragons were too strong.
To the extent that the gods agreed to stop fighting among themselves and get rid of them.
If they were weak enough to sneer at, the gods would have ignored them, but one adult dragon was more powerful than an enganhan god.
The god and the dragon waged war.
The power of the Goddess of Faith weakened the power of the dragons, the blades of the Goddess of War embroidered the sky and made the dragons unable to fly, and the power of ‘equality’ made even the ancient dragons ordinary people.
The dragons were gradually pushed back by a narrow margin, and in the end, they were in danger of being destroyed by the gods.
“Amastia-sama stepped in then, didn’t you?!”
“No.”
Eldran shook his head.
“In the first place, he had already sublimated into a godhead at that time and was preventing the gods from intervening on earth as much as possible.”
No matter how powerful the dragons were, it was only thanks to Amastia that they were able to continue their lives during the all-out offensive of the gods.
In the meantime, it was a special existence that saved the dragons from the brink of destruction.
Although it is a dragon, it has surpassed the limits of dragons, and is the supreme treasure created by the dimension of Ryunar.
A mutant among dragons, a powerful race.
And absolute.
Prostia, the dragon of destruction.
It was the second memory he should never forget.
“Frostia-sama…!”
Excited, Malachia watched the memories of that time as a video.
Gods and demons.
And the forgotten gods that still existed at the time.
In total, close to 3,000 gods emitted light all at once.
All the light of Godhead is pushed by a single spark.
It was enough to buy Malachia’s admiration for the image of him emitting mana and Ryunar that seemed like the world would collapse, playing with the gods with only his physical abilities, and burning up the powers that would be called myths in an instant.
Okay.
The gods were helplessly pushed.
I couldn’t even compete with them, so I fell into despair except for a few gods.
“All but a few gods attacked, but they couldn’t stop Frostia-sama.”
The problem is that even the gods were strong to some extent.
I didn’t dare to compare it to Frostia, but the world creaked in the midst of resisting Frostia.
Because of that, the world’s will, the will of the true god, intervened.
“The will of the dimension…!”
And the will of the dimension chose to restrict one absolute born from it rather than thousands of uninvited guests who came to its dimension.
“However, Frostia-sama is also called the Transcendental Dragon. He was a being who transcended dragons and even gods. In his heyday, he was able to ignore the restrictions imposed by the will of the Ryunar dimension.”
An unbearable singularity that resists even those who gave birth to it.
Therefore, the will of Ryu Nar’s dimension released the monsters that had been sealed in order to deal with Frostia and the monsters that had been placed under her command.
The King of the Seven Monsters.
And five beast gods.
Not only that, he gathered the mightiest men in the world to confront Frostia.
The gods also helped them, thinking it was this time.
However, in reality, it is said that it was a battle between the king of monsters, the beast gods, and Frostia.
The so-called strongmen and gods had no choice but to watch in a daze, praying that the aftermath would not affect them.
The hounds released by the will of the dimension were real monsters that even the eyes of the gods could not properly recognize.
“Frostia-sama was defeated in that battle…”
At the sullen voice, Eldran shook his head.
“No. You won.”
At the end of Eldran’s words, a video of the battle situation at the time appeared.
A giant deer that seemed to cover the world collapsed to the ground, howling in the heat.
Innumerable bugs burned at once, and the main body of the flower burned and withered away.
The parasite, which dared to parasitize on Frostia, spurted blood due to the powerful repelling force.
The king of ghosts did not participate in the fight in the first place because he thought it was ineffective.
The black sponge where the king of the sea hid was boiling and he was roasted to the point of evaporating himself.
The power exuded by the fallen king of the elements disappeared at once from Frostia’s breath.
The gigantic body of the machine, armed with all sorts of powers to the point of blaspheming God, was bound by Frostia’s mischievous magic.
The gods were no different.
The one that looked like a dragon was only focused on defense with countless spheres.
The huge Fire Dragon rushed with fire all over its body, but was destroyed by the bigger fire.
The other three divine beasts did nothing but fix the shaking world.
Even the eyes of young Malachia couldn’t even properly recognize them even when they saw them on video, and all of them were beings that even the gods looked down upon.
Frostia was strong enough to make even them stumble.
Now, I have a question.
How could someone like that be defeated?
He was so strong that even if he wanted to lose, he couldn’t lose.
The answer was simple.
The gods resorted to despicable means.
In the midst of the war of monsters that even the gods trembled, they aimed at dragons and hatchlings.
“I never dreamed that Frostia-sama would make such a choice.”
Frostia, who only thought she was an infant, turned her strength away for a while to save Hatchling. His dimensional will took advantage of that opportunity and put restrictions on him.
In the end, Frostia was sealed by the will of a dimension that could be called a true god, and was trapped in a secret place created by the Ahu gods.
The gods unanimously agreed that it should be completely killed, not sealed.
“The giants who are terribly off with us. The God of Equality, the God of Creation and the God of Destruction, and… Except for the beings we don’t even remember, everyone agreed to that death.”
Then Amastia stepped out.
In a state where the Goewang and Shinsoo were injured and the gods were weakened, he had the strength of an infant solitude.
If he made up his mind and gave orders to the dragons to fight, he could choose to destroy the gods as well.
But Amastia chose coexistence.
He chose to be confined to his own space for the rest of his life in order to save Frostia.
The dragon god made a contract with the gods.
As long as he is imprisoned, the gods cannot touch Frostia and the dragon.
They themselves will not touch the gods.
Thus, the war between the gods and dragons was over.
And as if the gods had never been on the same side, they started fighting among themselves again.
The world hasn’t changed.
No.
Only the dragon took a huge loss.
“Malakia. What do you think of Frostia-sama’s choice?”
“…”
“Some dragons say that it is an honor to die for the world’s order.”
He said that the hatchlings would have thought so too, and that trying to save them was a foolish choice.
“These are stupid people!!”
Malacia exclaimed heartily.
“Ohhh. Do you think so?”
“Of course!! Recognition is something that only the strong can give!!”
Frostia could stand alone, but she showed mercy and sacrificed herself for her people.
The recognition given by the world’s strongest being, who may even be equal to the will of Ryunar, is even more sublime and extraordinary.
“We are alive thanks to Frostia and the Dragon God.”
“Yes. It is.”
Eldran’s voice contained satisfaction.
“That’s why, we wish.”
I hope you return the favor someday.
May the day come when we can free them both.
The moment Eldran spoke the dragon’s secret wish.
That earnest wish became Malachia’s dream.
Dragons are a fraudulent race that is hard to compare to other races and can even be compared to gods.
Malachia could be said to be the king of knowledge among dragons.
With his outstanding academic zeal and ability to learn, he devoted himself to magic.
Because he was attracted to magic?
There was definitely fun, but it was for the sake of a dream.
Malacia devised a way to free Frostia and Amastia.
What binds the two together is the constraint of the world.
It is said that Amastia made a contract with the gods, but that ‘contract’. In other words, the oath itself was made up of the subjectivity of the will of the dimension.
If I could interpret the rules given by the will of the dimension, I might be able to free them.
The will to rebel against the will of the dimension that encompasses all beings in the world.
It was an unbelievable task even for a dragon.
In fact, even if Malacia miraculously completed the magic that would free the two of them, there was no way that the will of the dimension would just watch it.
Nevertheless, Malachia pursued her dream.
He didn’t even go out for games that dragons usually do, and devoted himself to magic and research.
He is the Black Dragon of Passion from sometime. He was called the ‘Black Fiery Dragon’.
As the years passed, things got worse and worse for the dragon.
Because of the contract, the gods themselves could not touch the dragon, but they used an expedient.
Toys of the gods.
It was using strangers.
In fact, no strangers dare stand up to the dragon.
Occasionally, a transcendent strongman called a ranker appears, but even they were so different in strength that they could not be compared to a gentle dragon.
However, they come out constantly.
Again, the test of the will of the dimension. In other words, countless quests related to dragons began to pour into the quest contents.
I didn’t hate dragons because there was no rationality in the will of the dimension, but it was because there were no races that were good for granting quests like strong and attractive creatures like dragons.
The dragon hated the will of the gods and dimensions, and did not want to be used by them.
In order to one day save the Dragon God and the Transcendental Dragon, to increase their strength… They chose seclusion.
They secretly built a sanctuary.
And left the takeover.
“Are you sure you want to stay here? Malachia”
“Yes. Sir Lord.”
To Eldran, whose face was full of worries, Malachia replied vigorously.
“If you remain on the ground and analyze the elements hidden by the will of the dimension, you might find a clue to save the two of you.”
There must be various choices and paths to increase the possibility.
The dragons respected Malacia’s choice.
“Malachia. Black fever dragon. If you want to remain in Middle-earth, there are people you need to be careful of.”
“I’ll listen.”
Eldran talked about the existence of the eight monster kings and the five divine beasts.
I am familiar with special monsters that even dragons cannot compete with.
This time, Eldran, the Dragon Lord’s deputy, spoke about people and even dragons who didn’t know much about them.
“Creator God, Planet God Gaia. She and the gods in her temple did not stand up to Frostia-sama.”
It’s not that they’re weak, it’s just that it’s not right.
Had she intervened, Rod said, the situation would have been completely different.
The peak of evil gods who are not currently participating in the match, comparable to that Gaia. God of destruction
“The Destruction God is boring and has no interest in the world. In some ways, it’s similar to Gaia.”
If the two do not touch first, there is nothing to collide with.
“Also. Beware of the god of equality.”
“You mean the Allnist?”
Eldran nodded her head.
“If it wasn’t for the god of equality, Frostia-sama might not have been sealed.”
A mysterious god obsessed with equality who fought against Frostia but opposed his sealing.
He feels something uneasy.
“And the Four Great Demon Kings and the Four Heavenly Kings still remaining in the world. Lastly…”
Eldran hesitated for some reason before laughing at his words.
“It would be better not to know about this existence in the first place.”
So Eldran and the dragons left for the Sanctuary.
In this way, Malacia became the only ‘living old dragon’ remaining in Middle-earth.
Thousands of years passed again.
Having mastered all the magic in the world, he became the supreme wizard.
To the extent that it reached the level of Nerenia, which could be called ‘Irregular’, that even the gods did not dare to surpass.
But even so, he couldn’t find a way to save God and transcendence.
Dragons live a very long time, but he couldn’t help but feel impatient because he hadn’t made any progress in his dream for so long.
In the meantime, a being came to him who was reclusive.
“Howdy.”
“…”
Malacia glanced at him and felt… ‘Shabby’.
At least, it was a billion light-year difference from the dangerous beings that Eldran had warned about and always had engraved in their heads.
Maybe that’s why I was deceived.
To a being in the form of a blonde woman that seemed to be leaking light.
“Hello. My name is Nanar the Fanatic.”
