Chapter 424 – Underground Ruins (6)
“Raiya, what do you want to do?”
Asked Rai.
If you enter this water of life and come out, you will surely grow.
If so, Siwoo’s power will greatly increase.
But, of course, the most important thing is Rai’s opinion.
If she does not want to enter, she must commit to the following.
“Um… , Do you have to stay long?”
“That…”
I don’t know.
I first heard of the existence of the water of life 5 minutes ago.
“I can’t tell you exactly how long it will take. Because we don’t even know Since Rai is a dragon, it could take a very long time.”
“Yeah… ?”
“Yes, but Rai will be over when he wakes up.”
It seemed to be in a state of sleep in the water of life.
“Really?”
Riel nodded her head at Rai’s question.
“Then what if I sleep too long? If all my older brothers and sisters are old and become grandparents… ?”
“Um… , But it won’t take that long. Hmm. No matter how long it is, maybe a year or so.”
“1 year? If 1 year… You have to wake up after sleeping 365 times!?”
“Huh, Lai only needs to sleep once and wake up.”
“Um… , Grunt… I understand!”
Nodding, Rai nodded.
“I want to sleep!”
“Are you really going to be okay?”
“Huh! I’m going to get really strong, punish the bad monsters, and help the guys with their work!”
Rai’s eager answer.
Well, she doesn’t think it’s too bad what she feels.
According to Riel, she spends her time in a sleep state and wakes up when the growth of the water of life is over.
“Okay.”
If Rai chooses to do so, we must respect him.
“Then let’s go back to the village and talk to Werewolf, okay?”
“Huh!”
“Then… It looks like the exploration of the ruins is over, so let’s go back soon.”
∴
After searching for users, she returned to the surface.
After that, I immediately summoned the golem.
“So you mean there are no underground resources?”
A golem with arms raised and cheering.
I meant right.
It wasn’t underground resources, it was the detection of ruins.
I’m glad I didn’t ask in the first place.
If it wasn’t for that, I wouldn’t have gotten the notes on the Tree of Life and the Branches of the World Tree, Dimensional Magic and the Seven Deadly Sins.
“Okay, then let’s go back.”
I opened the warp gate connected to the goblin village and went over.
Orcs helping the goblins with their farming work in the village.
“Are you back, sir Siwoo?”
Then the foreman, Orc, came up to me and talked to me.
“Okay. You waited a long time.”
“No. However… , What happened to the underground ruins?”
“As a result of searching and asking the golem, it was confirmed that it was not an underground resource, but a ruin prepared by Kreine-sama.”
“Is that so? What was inside the ruins?”
“There was a present prepared by Kreine-sama for me, Riel, and Rai. There were no underground resources.”
“Ah, is that so? That’s great.”
Nodding, the foreman Orc nodded and said.
As if you sincerely think it’s good.
“Aren’t you sorry?”
“What are you talking about?”
“This is a mine that you orcs have been working for four days and nights. I know very well the trouble. But there were no underground resources. Isn’t it futile?”
“Um… , Yes, but what… Wouldn’t that be rather good? Craine-sama’s remains are more important than underground resources.”
“Hmm, the question is whether the other orcs have the same idea.”
As a king, I have to rule the people called monsters.
We have to consider the public sentiment and the collapse they must have felt.
“We are moving for the king. Please don’t mind.”
“Hmm…”
In the military, the thoughts and positions of officers and soldiers are different.
The foreman orcs and worker orcs may also be different.
“And they were originally the people who were building the wall anyway. It was the same thing.”
That’s right.
“I get it. Tell the Orcs that we will not forget your hard work and reward you accordingly.”
“Yes, I understand.”
“Then, gather the Orcs and start preparing to return.”
“Yes.”
The foreman, who had withdrawn like that, led the worker orcs to finish preparing to return.
I opened the warp gate connected to the duke ogre village, greeted the goblin chief, and crossed the warp gate.
Ogre village arrived like that.
In the distance, construction of the wall was in full swing.
“Stop by the Ministry of Labor to report your return and rest until tomorrow. Everyone worked hard, let’s break up now.”
“”You worked hard!!””
The orcs who responded loudly began to disperse.
“Then, shall we have a little party for one last time tonight? Until Rai goes to bed.”
Now it’s time to have a farewell party for a brief breakup.
I have to let them have a good time so that I won’t see them for up to a year.
Of course, from Rai’s point of view, it’s all over when you wake up.
“Yeah, good!”
“What, do you want something to eat?”
“Ugh… , Me, chicken and pizza! I want to eat Coke too! Lots of hamburgers!”
Fast food seemed to be a snippet of taste for young Rai.
“Okay, what flavor should I buy?”
“What flavor? Um… I don’t know. There were a lot of red ones and lots of circles…”
It seemed like he didn’t know.
“I don’t know, it’s okay. Then I’ll buy some food from Hyundai for a while, so I’m hanging out with the unnies. Riel noona, please explain the situation when you meet the kids.”
“Okay, would you like to hit it?”
“Then, Kritiana, you follow me.”
“Me? Why?”
“You’ve lived with Rai longer than me. Don’t you want to go with me?”
“Who do you hate?”
If you go back to Hyundai, it would be nice to buy some presents from Rai.
And among us, Kristiana, who has lived with Rai the longest in modern times, knows her tastes better.
And what rye’s favorite flavor is.
“Then let’s go to War Wolf first.”
It’s a farewell party for Rai, one of the symbols of our country, and no one else. At least the residents of Ogre Village should know that Rai is going.
And you’ll have to tell War Wolf, who raised Rai himself, about this.
I went straight to the administration building with Kritiana and Rai and went into the office of the secretary of administration located on the top floor of the administration building.
“Ah, are you back? Siwoo.”
“Okay, has anything been going on in the meantime?”
“Ah, Tan, who received the remnants of the ruling power, returned from Afrene-sama’s district four days ago. The remnants of the ruling power are currently imprisoned in the dungeon, and other than that, there was nothing to report directly.”
It is the remnant of the ruling power.
Trying to get as much information as possible and then executing him would be the safest thing to do.
“Um, I see. And War Wolf, Rai says he has something to say..”
“Is that so? Please let me know, Mr. Rai.”
“Grandpa, that’s true… I will be sleeping for a long time.”
That is how the story of the water of life began.
“That… I see. Well thought out. If it’s Rai-sama, he’ll definitely have a chance to be reborn as a better dragon.”
“Yes… , Grandfather. You can’t cry because you’re lonely without me… ?”
Was it because he was worried about War Wolf?
Water dripped from Rai’s eyes.
“Haha, don’t worry about anything. It’s sad that I can’t see Rai-sama, but it’s not like I can’t wait that long.”
“… Really?”
“Yes, I look forward to more. How much Rai-nim must have grown after waking up.”
“Ooh, I see! Siwoo oppa is having a party tonight, so you have to come?!”
“Sure.”
“Then Kritiana, I need to talk to War Wolf for a while, so please wait outside Lairang.”
“Okay, I get it.”
Rai and Kritiana went out of the room.
“Are you really okay?”
“Of course it would be lonely. Because Lai-sama was always by his side, energizing him.”
“I can put it off a little later if you want. So that I can spend a little more time with Rai.”
“… It’s okay.”
After thinking for a while, War Wolf answered.
“Wouldn’t there be more regrets left? And not only is it not a permanent farewell, but it is rather a good thing for me.”
“What if it went well?”
“A War Wolf’s lifespan is 130 years at the most. My age is 110 years old this year. Life is slowly coming to an end. I thought he would pass away without seeing Rai-nim become a saint… , He was only able to fulfill the old man’s lingering feelings.”
“Is it… , I get it. I’m thinking of throwing a little party tonight. I intend to bring modern foods and items. I hope you inform the village and gather the monsters.”
“Oh oh… , Modern food. The monsters will be delighted.”
War Wolf, admiring and anticipating, said.
“But there is a limit to what I can get, so prepare other foods. What, do you want something to eat?”
“Hmm… , I want to eat the food you said called bibimbap, with the meat called chadolbak.”
This child knows how to eat.
“I get it. I’ll buy it while I’m on my way back to Hyundai.”
“Thank you. Then we should move right away.”
I moved to the present day with Critiana, and Warwolf to announce the party.
