Chapter 255
A black shadow cuts through the wind.
Three figures were riding on top of the shadow dragon Kaisel, wh
ich flew like a ray of light through the smoky vapor. 2
Seong Su-ho, Cha Hae-in, and Sirka.
A boiling river of heat passed by beneath them.
But before the heat could even reach them, the river had already
moved far behind.
‘Thanks to my mother, I was able to cross over comfortably. Rath
er than the weakling Yongin tribe, I should at least take in at least o
ne dragon as a soldier. Or I should somehow raise Ragna well… …
.’
[The King of the Mad Dragons, the Lord of Destruction, listens int
ently.]
The dragon emperor’s ears perked up at Suho’s pledge.
“Suho.”
Cha Hae-in looked back at Su-ho and asked.
“Since we’ve already come this far, should I just take you all the
way to where Woo Jin-cheol is?”
A chuckle escaped Suho’s lips at his mother’s casual speech.
Judging by the way he speaks, doesn’t it sound like he’s going to 1
drop it off in front of the academy on his way to the market? 1
But my mother’s car(?) was so great that it completely ruined my
daily life.
Just by appearing, he is able to capture the attention of the entire 1
nation.
Suddenly, Su-ho remembered the reporters’ reactions of shock w
hen they saw Cha Hae-in earlier, and he began to think again about
his mother’s time as a Liz.
‘I knew my mother was a national representative in the past, but
she was much more famous than I thought.’
Of course, I had heard several times throughout my life that my
mother had been very successful in her younger years.
But how much of that would make sense to the son?
And that was before he was even born.
From Suho’s perspective, twenty years ago was as old as the tim
e when his parents met and dated before getting married.
“By the way, where is Woo Jin-cheol?”
“I already gave you the coordinates that were most recently share
d by the association.”
While Su-ho was answering Cha Hae-in’s words.
“… … little by little.”
Sirka, who had been silent since coming to North Korea, suddenly
called Cha Hae-in.
Cha Hae-in looked back at Sirka.
“what’s the matter?”
“It’s weird here.”
Sirka was sweeping her arms down her body with a creepy expre
ssion, looking down at the ground.
“The spirits living here all seem to be out of their minds.”
“Could it be the spirits of this place too?”
Cha Hae-in’s expression hardened at Sirka’s words.
If you’re talking about a runaway spirit, haven’t you experienced it
before?
‘Facade Island’
The ‘Ice Spirits of the Echo Forest’ who lived in the Ice Elves’ san
ctuary.
What was the fundamental cause of the ice spirits that were origi
nally supposed to be docile in the sanctuary suddenly going crazy a
nd running wild?
[Your Majesty.]
At that moment, Berdo looked ahead with narrowed eyes and gro 1
und his teeth.
[The energy of Itarim is widely spread throughout this land.]
As Ber had said, after passing through the river of passion, a blue 1
fog from outer space had gathered all over this vast land of North K
orea.
The fog was thicker and more concentrated than anywhere I had
ever seen before.
In some ways, even more so than the Rocktac Field. 1
‘At least India has a healthy government, but North Korea doesn’t 6
even have that.’
[If we leave this place as it is, in the worst case scenario, a huge
void gate could open up across this entire land. Maybe… … it may h
ave already started.]
Suho felt the seriousness of the situation.
“Mother, I think we need to put out the urgent fire first.”
“Okay. Before going to Mr. Woo Jin-cheol, let’s first take care of
the visible fields.”
Cha Hae-in also nodded with a serious expression.
Since we had the coordinates anyway, it was quick to find Chairm
an Woo Jin-cheol.
The problem is more the area of concentrated blue fog that forms
a hazy mass right before your eyes.
Since Woo Jin-cheol came to North Korea to correct this phenom
enon anyway, the order was not important.
“Kaiser, let’s go down.” 1
But Kaisel only lowered its altitude slightly.
Kaaaak-!
Caw! Caw caw!
The spirits floating in the air came straight to attack us.
[Flame Bird of Prey Black Eagle]
[Flame Bird of Prey Black Eagle]
… … .
[Blade Wind Crow]
… … .
“They are wild beasts eaten by spirits!”
Sirka shouted urgently.
“It’s similar to when the Ice Golem appeared in our sanctuary! Of
course, this place… …!”
Before he could finish his words, the entire field of vision was ins
tantly covered with countless birds.
Wedge-!
Whoosh! Whoosh!
As Sirka said, countless eagles that had been eaten by the rampa
ging fire spirits charged forward recklessly, engulfed in hot flames.
The blazing wings flapping made me feel like I was seeing a phoe
nix.
In the case of the crow that was eaten by the wind spirit, every ti
me it flapped its wings, a sharp blade of wind like a sword would te
ar through the air.
But so what?
[I guess you’re really crazy. Where are you going without fear?]
Verga openly laughed at them. 1
This is why runaways are a problem.
A mere bird would attack a dragon?
There was no need to use mana on these guys.
[Kiaaaaaaaah!]
Kaisel opened his mouth wide and roared at them.
Pupupupu… … !
A straight line of air cannons shot out from Kaisel’s mouth and sw
ept past them.
Following the path of the wind, their bodies burst like balloons wi
thout warning.
But Cha Hae-in scolded Kaisel instead.
“Kaiser, then you can’t use it. If you catch it, Suho won’t get any
experience points.”
[Kiruruk… … .]
Kaisel, who had been opening his mouth fiercely again, quickly be
came sullen and the corners of his mouth drooped.
However, Cha Hae-in was a firm mother who was serious about
raising her children.
“Then, Suho?”
“Oh, Mother?”
At his mother’s soft voice, Suho’s eyes instinctively fluttered.
Oh, I know what this is.
I think it was like this one night before an exam… … .
“Work hard and come back.”
Bam.
… … ?!
Cha Hae-in’s hand pushed Su-ho’s back without hesitation.
High above the sky.
Into the midst of the many spirit birds still remaining.
“No, um… … !”
How could my mom-! 1
Beyond Soo-ho’s sight as he fell so helplessly, the mother’s gentl
e smile as she gently waved her hand at her son gradually faded aw 4
ay.
Suddenly, a story flashed through my mind about lions throwing t
heir cubs off cliffs to make them stronger.
‘But it’s too high here-!’
Even lions would probably shake their heads if they saw this sigh
t!
But now, we need to move rather than complain to survive.
‘The power of the ruler!’
Bang! Bang!
Although he was momentarily surprised, Suho skillfully stepped o
n the air to slow his fall.
At the same time, ‘Kamishi’s Wrath’ is held in both hands.
[Use ‘Skill: Storm of Black Flame’.]
Hwaruk! Kwaaaaang!
Kkaaaak… … !
Kekeke!
[The Flame Vulture Black Eagle has been defeated.]
[The Flame Vulture Black Eagle has been defeated.]
… … .
[The Blade Wind Raven has been defeated.]
[The Blade Wind Raven has been defeated.]
… … .
The forms of the spirit birds that are dying helplessly in the black
flame’s black energy scatter like ash in the air.
Especially among them, those like the Firebird, even though they
share the same fire attribute, cannot be compared to the Flames of
Destruction.
‘Honestly, they’re not the type of guys that would give you a lot o
f experience, but I like the number of them.’
At a glance, there are at least several thousand of them.
It’s hard to even count.
When a bird(?) they had never seen before suddenly invaded thei
r territory, it seemed like all the guys in the area gathered around.
Swaaaah!
[I am a little monarch!]
At that moment, Berga, who had flown quickly to Suho’s side as 1
he was falling, relayed Cha Hae-in’s words.
[Catch them all before they hit the floor!]
“… … .”
[If you succeed, I’ll give you a keel instead of pocket money!]
“what the.”
Suho ended up bursting into laughter.
“That’s what you came here to give me from the beginning!”
And then the look in his eyes changed.
Chomp chomp!
His sword cuts through the body of the firebird that fearlessly lun
ges at him from the side.
and.
“Get up!” 5

Snap!
Suho’s hand grabbed the shadow bird’s leg.
Then the shadowy bird of prey spread its wings wide and glided d
own, its black, steamy wings billowing.
Suho, who was gliding towards a place where there were many s
pirit-filled birds that filled the sky, shouted loudly.
“All winged ones, come out!”
Phew!
Shadow soldiers jump out as if they had been waiting for that mo
ment!
[As expected, the loyal subject you can rely on at important mom
ents is me.]
Among them, Lee Min-seong, or rather, the shadow knight Qua
y, smiled with a proud look in his eyes.
And he raised his spear proudly.
[Everyone, follow me!]
Wedge!
Led by Quay, countless shadow knights shot out like arrows towa
rds the spirit-infused birds.
At the same time, the shadow dragon tribe led by Sita also appea
red and began to slaughter the spirits without hesitation.
In the midst of the battle, Suho leisurely glided and gave orders t
o the Shadow Raptor.
“Guide your spirits to the gate they came from immediately!”
Kaaaak!
Then, the shadow bird of prey immediately understood Suho’s co
mmand and turned somewhere.
“oh.”
A strange sight appeared in Cha Hae-in’s eyes as he watched the 1
scene from above.
“You’ve become quite adept at combat, haven’t you?”
“That’s pretty good. It seems like it’s gotten a lot stronger since t
he last time I saw it.”
Sirka looked at Cha Hae-in with a bewildered expression.
However, in the forgotten time period, Cha Hae-in was the stron
gest S-class hunter in Korea, second only to Sung Jin-woo. 4
Just considering his career as a hunter at that time, it was a who
pping 10 years.
In terms of combat experience alone, he is far superior to Suho,
who has only been awakened for a year.
Moreover, having seen the battles of Sung Jin-woo, the true Sha
dow Lord, up close several times, it was inevitable that his eyes wo 1
uld be sharp.
“Kaiser, let us follow you.”
At Cha Hae-in’s words, Kaisel followed Su-ho.
Then, Sirka’s expression gradually hardened.
“The spirits’ energy is growing stronger.”
“Yeah. It looks like you’ve come to the right place.”
Swaaaaaaah!
Cutting through the fluttering blue fog, something absurd awaite
d at the end of the path the shadowy bird had taken to bring the gu 1
ardian.
“… … What is that?”
It’s a city.
There existed a huge city surrounded by blue fog.
The problem, however, was that its appearance and atmosphere
were not North Korean at all.
“Is this North Korea?”
Kkaaaak!
Suho, gliding with the shadow bird of prey, saw the city from the
closest distance and his eyes sparkled sharply.
‘Barrier?’
A hemispherical transparent barrier surrounded the city.
