The Great Ancient Wizard finds a DoYoSe and Shells (4)

  [This is strange.]

  One of the dragons suddenly spoke. His kind amidst the rest of the world is now fighting against each other. Everyone was just blindly pouring curses and magic at each other. Before he knew it, the numbers on both sides had decreased quite a bit, but they couldn’t stop this stupid battle. It was a frighteningly strange thing.

  [We might be killed.]

  If he told the truth, he was okay with any other dragons dying. Everyone here was thinking that. So, he wanted to step back in moderation and let these guys beat themselves and fight to the death.

  [But why?]]

  Why are you throwing your life away and fighting? How come you didn’t have any doubts about this situation and just concentrated on pumping your energy out? How come we all didn’t realize this?

  ―Die, you filthy invader!

  [Oh, shoot…]

  Confused by the sense of incompatibility that struck him, a blue flame covered his whole body.

  [Ha…]

  Funny. There could be a dragon who would sacrifice his life for such an attack? At any time, every arrogant dragon who cared only about their safety had sacrificed their lives to kill each other.

  ―Diiiiiiiiiiiiiiie!

  ‘Where did it go wrong?’ He thought, wetting his whole body with his life-sacrificing Dragon’s Breath. Was it a treasure with a powerful life force and magic that drove them to this world? Joining hands with the unsuspecting Devil? Was it by jumping fearlessly into the cracks that connected countless different worlds?

  […!]

  At that moment, there was something that caught his eye. Beyond the blue flames that enveloped them, on a very distant hill. The image of a beautiful human staring at him. The man, so beautiful as to be sacred, stood still, looking at them, with cynicism on his lips. Without even thinking of hiding that he had created this scene, he was confidently revealing it. He wondered why he hadn’t found him until now.

  [Yes, I see…]

  It was all because that man’s will was there. That was because he wanted us to die.

  [Born in the Middle Realm, there is a god…]

  It was because they didn’t know. That was the only reason they were dying.

  [Come on, look right in front.]

  With remorse and resignation dominating the mind, a gentle voice flowed into its ear.

  [Your enemy is still alive.]

  Was it the voice of an apostle following god? A sweet, sticky, clingy voice blew away all those negative emotions. He raised his eyes and looked ahead.

  ―Ooooooooh!

  Oh, for sure. The evil that burned his body and attacked his soul is right in front of him. What other reason was there to think about now? Those vulgar lumps of desire defile the name of the race. How dare he call himself a Dragon!

  [Kill him.]

  The apostle’s voice filled his entire mind. He didn’t even know what he was thinking just a moment ago. However, it didn’t matter at all now.

  [Kill.]

  [Kill him.]

  * * *

  “All right, another one is falling.”


  Evan led the Spirit World’s dragon, which ran out of steam, into a gate drilled into the ground. If not, it would have been dangerous for another dragon to finish him first. Still, fortunately, thanks to Maybell’s mental magic, which had become more effective as the atmosphere of the battlefield ripened, they didn’t lose the last hit.

  [Zero, Mother is pruning herself!]

  “Yes, I suppose so.”


  [Move your branches like tentacles and stick them in his head!]

  “Yes, I suppose so.”


  [Oh, the earth suddenly vibrated, and Mother became full of leaves!]

  “She leveled up; tell her congratulations.”


  It was clear that even the elves who had lived for a long time had never before seen a moment when the World Tree leveled up so quickly.

  “There’s still a lot left. With my calculation, she’ll be able to level up a few more times.”


  [Mother likes it…!]

  I sent back the witches who were now level 150, saying it wasn’t level-up efficient. How could the World Tree level up just from a few dragons? It worked. The World Tree was strangely easy to level up compared to its abilities. The level of the World Tree is surprisingly low, and it could be assumed that its strength was only due to its natural race or unique ability.

  Even so, of course, the World Tree was the World Tree. The level-up couldn’t be experienced by the occasional processing of what entered the forest, but rather, instead, its power was gradually escaping. But now, Evan was kindly delivering the dragons to the point where the World Tree was gaining more than it lost.

  “Maybell, you’re doing great. Keep doing that.”


  [I’m working hard right now. Can I look forward to your reward?]

  “Yes, look forward to it.”


  [Yay.]

  The succubus unit led by Maybell was doing a great job, so it would be okay to listen to her today.

  [That succubus…is also strange. No matter how complicated the situation, she can still cast mental spells against dragons.]

  “No, I’ve been dealing with dragons before, and it’s possible to use mental magic against them.”


  [It’s only possible for you…no, come to think of it, even that succubus.]

  Attraction is the first step in connecting yourself with the target. If you quantify your influence on someone, it will result in a figure accounting for charm. Therefore, all mental magic had a higher success rate with increased charm.

  [If that succubus has been with you since a very young age, I can’t rule out the possibility that her charm has grown abnormally fast due to the nature of changing herself…]

  “I don’t know because I have amnesia.”


  Maybell had always been with Evan since he regained his memory of his past life. Indeed, she was a little pretty at first, but by the time she grew up, she showed great charisma and developed one of the corporations that put Sherden on a global scale! Furthermore, it felt like she had regained the image of a succubus completely, awakened the first time, and completed the second awakening!

  [As expected, everything around you is weird.]

  “Then the same goes for Fayna.”


  [I am aware of that.]

  Evan stopped laughing at Fayna’s words. Around that time, another dragon fell. It was a Middle Earth dragon.

  ―Oh, my…stop!

  Then, a dragon cried out.

  ―There’s a terrible bug digging into our brain!

  As the number of dragons decreased, the sense of incompatibility seemed to grow beyond the mental magic. When a group did something crazy together, it was natural to bury it there, but now that the number had decreased, the collective consciousness faded, and the dragon’s ego popped up.

  ―Our great race, manipulated by a tiny creature!

  [Die!]

  ―You’re such a moron, I’m…listen to me!

  [There’s a dragon who reveals a gap!]

  [That one shames the Dragon race!]

  [This land is ours!]

  However, even if one of them came to its senses, however loudly it spoke, it never moved on to another dragon. Maybell was inducing the dragons’ consciousness in real-time to target those who escaped the spell first!

  ―Don’t you dare say that…a great race cannot die in such a way. In this way…!

  [Kill him!]

  [Kill him!]

  Dragon fire covered his entire body. It was too deadly for a body tired by a series of battles. As soon as he sensed the limit of his life was just around the corner, an overwhelming force pulled him down.

  ―Ahhh!?

  If he had been exposed to their attack for a second longer, he would have died. Did any of the surviving dragons intend to help him? As soon as he raised his head to express his gratitude, he was buried in a pile of dead bodies filled with his kind…


  Breaking through that hallucination, he was thrown over the bottom gate. Waiting for him beyond that was a baptism of giant branches with sharp edges.

  [There’s one more!]

  “You don’t have to tell me everything. There’s not much time left here, so I’ll tell you after I send it all.”


  [Okay. Oh, Mother is using five of her branches at the same time!]

  Evan terminated the communication and looked at the scene in front of him. Things were going faster and faster, and there were only two Middle Earth Dragons, and four Spirit World Dragons left on the battlefield. Even so, the dragons of Middle Earth were already defeated. Evan gave them a slight tug with the power of Annihilation so that they wouldn’t die and then threw them into the gate as planned.

  Thus, only four dragons remained in the meadow, where fifty dragons once gathered. They were all dragons of the Spirit world.

  [We won.]

  [Victory? Can you call this a victory?]

  [This is…]

  [What happened?]

  When there were no more targets left for battle, the dragons finally came to their senses. Maybell’s mental spell also lost its effect and was automatically lifted.

  [Ha, ha…?]

  [What…?]

  Then, it became clear to their eyes. Red blood flowed through the great field. Their bodies hurt so severely that it wouldn’t be strange if they died right now. And before they knew it, a dazzlingly beautiful human and divine apostle appeared.

  “I don’t know if the Devil is watching.”


  [I don’t know if he sees it with his eyes, but I’m sure he hears it with his ears.]

  “Probably.”


  The destruction of the southern base of the Demon Tribes, the dragons of the Spirit World, which were also the most significant axis of power in the cracks of the Spirit Realm…by wrapping them up, Evan declared war on the Devil. It also puts the existence of God in between them.

  [You’re…]

  [He made us do this!]

  [I will kill you one day…!]

  It seems that it had recovered a little bit of its reason. The dragons were shouting and displaying their anger, but their bodies were honestly opting for a retreat. It was because they realized intuitively that they couldn’t beat Evan in their state.

  “Let’s go from the left.”


  [Huh!?]

  However, it didn’t mean anything. Evan, as he declared himself, crushed the dragon on the far left with the power of Annihilation. Frightened under the terrible pressure, it was tossed lightly into the gate on the floor.

  [A gate!?]

  [Well, maybe the bodies of our dragons are over there…]

  [It’s dangerous, it’s dangerous to be sucked in there!]

  The other three dragons, who had seen their kind disappear quickly in front of their eyes, tried to express their magic by flapping their wings, but in the next moment, a terrible pressure was placed on the three simultaneously.

  [Haaa!]

  [You said you would go in order from the left…!]

  “It was a feint, you morons!”


  The three dragons were beaten by the power of Annihilation and were sucked into the gate. After completing the work, Evan hummed with relief and connected the communication to Mirole, immediately receiving reports that World Tree had taken all four lunch boxes that had just arrived safely and leveled up once more.

  Fayna was looking at Evan with a fantastic look on her face.

  [You could have stepped up to the plate! You can knock three dragons out at once!]

  “It was possible because they were already exhausted. Combat is originally their design.”


  Evan started cleaning up the scene. Once down to the ground, the gate was retrieved and returned. Then he looked around and saw the dragon blood scattered all over the vast field.

  “Hmm…”


  What is there to do with the blood that has already been sprayed on the soil? It was such a waste to leave it as-is. The blood of a dragon full of magic would be an excellent fertilizer.

  “Alright.”


  He refined the power of Annihilation, spread it all over the place, and removed the dragon’s blood from the ground. The ground was separated like the surface of cheese being thinly sliced.

  “Then, break it into small pieces…”


  The lumps of soil, which were united by the power of Annihilation, were violently rotated in the air and crushed into small pieces. The red soil soon turned into finely ground red sand. In the process, Evan took out the Magic-free sand separately and absorbed the dragon’s blood. However, the amount was huge.

  “It seems to have absorbed not only the blood of dragons but also the bodies of the dead Demons, making it even more nutritious.”


  [Can you even call it nutritional value?]

  “If you process it properly with my alchemy, yes.”


  He packed the finished fertilizer properly and threw it into the Necklace World. It would be beneficial for the farming that would be done in the future, and even for growing herbs.

  “Now, let’s go to the Forest. I’m already nervous about what I can do with 55 dragon bodies.”


  […]

  Fayna, who let Evan leave first, hummed and hurried down the road, then looked back and paid silent tribute. This battlefield had become a wilderness as all traces of battle were swept away. Would other people know that there were many beings who could destroy the world here?

  …Maybe it was better not to know.

  “Are you coming, Fayna?”


  [I’m coming…so when did you say it was time to bring down the gods, Zero?]

  The two transcendent left the field—the day when the dragons of the Spirit Realm and the dragons of Middle Earth were wiped out.

  While no Divine was aware of the fact, the Divine Realm officially declared war on the Demon Realm.
