My Alter Ego’s Path to Greatness

〈 Dragon’s Child (2) 〉

At that scene of majestic destruction, the fighting on the battlefield stopped for an instant.

“Crazy…”

“Huh!”

Amidst the swirling dust, most of the crowd gazed in fascination at the large mushroom cloud that covered the city.

It was natural for everyone to see such a sight for the first time in their lives.

In this world, the technology for handling gunpowder was extremely crude, and it was nearly impossible to cause such a huge explosion with such a thing.

What’s more, isn’t that something that occurred solely due to the energy emitted from one living being?

‘…Is this really the dragon of legend? It’s powerful enough to blow up a city. ‘This is absurd.’

General Jeong Cheon, a military expert who participated in this operation as a member of the Northern Army, the largest military force that controls parts of Shanxi and Shaanxi Gansu, narrowed his eyes and stuck out his tongue.

As his base was close to Beijing, he was well aware of the importance of this event, and although he participated in the battle at the request of Wang Ya, who served him, he was confident and proud of his skills.

There was no need to talk about his military power, which had been trained through numerous battles and wars.

‘But that… I guess it’s impossible. If that thing falls in the middle of the army.’

He glanced at the scimitar in his hand and wiggled his eyebrows.

It is said that a world-class expert who has risen to the top of the world is a one-man army, but most of his abilities come from interpersonal combat.

It was something I had never even dared to imagine: launching an attack like that that would blow away an entire corps.

‘If I cut it from the front… I don’t know. As long as I don’t get hit directly, I think I can survive the aftermath with my self-defense skills.’

The problem is that in that case, the safety of the military that was with us cannot be guaranteed.

And it was foolish for such an ignorant person to take the attack from the front instead of avoiding it.

He strengthened his eyes and looked toward Beijing, where the dust had begun to settle, and he let out a soft sigh.

“Hmm.”

The first thing you see is a huge scar left on the ground.

Where the destruction ray passed, not only was a huge pit dug, but everything in that section had melted smoothly and was reflecting the light.

‘It’s literally a disaster.’

In the face of such an attack, neither the humane tactics nor the water-based warfare that held out between castles had any meaning.

Since it was an opponent that flew freely in the sky, the means of attack were also determined.

And the same sentiments were felt by the dragons, who were able to clearly see all the scenes from their special seats in the sky.

[Huh.]

[That’s….]

An exclamation burst out of their mouths without me knowing.

An attack of such power that even those who have lived for a long time have never seen it before.

It would be easier to cause thunderstorms and storms in a certain area or to cause an earthquake, so the destruction of such pure and overwhelming power felt rather unfamiliar.

[Wow, what is he?]

The black dragon, who had been indifferent the entire time he was here, began to show admiration and active interest.

I didn’t expect much because he was much younger than me and was only a temporary substitute and not a real yellow dragon, but I was deeply impressed by the sight of him wiping out some of the bug-like humans and monster monsters that were swarming under the ground.

‘Such a powerful attack! If we could shoot those things off in every city that is the nest of humans….’

Is there any other fireworks more spectacular than that?

Her bright eyes turned to Horus, who leisurely circled the skies over the battlefield and returned this way.

In that way, the eyes of humans on the ground, monsters, and dragons in the sky were all focused on one being.

It was a moment when the overwhelming majesty of the unusual-looking yellow dragon was clearly engraved in everyone’s memories.

***

Flap—Flutter—

‘Oh, did I go too far in showing an impressive appearance?’

The flapping of my wings, which was normally uneventful, feels heavy.

Because attention was focused on him from all directions, he tried not to show it as much as possible, but Horus’s condition was not that good right now.

A breath of tremendous power that blew away most of a large city with a single shot.

It was an attack of a level that could be used by an ancient dragon, not a Holy Dragon level or an Old Dragon level.

Of course, it’s bound to put a strain on your body!

‘Thanks to you, I definitely made a mark.’

Anyway, it would have been a shame to physically fight and fight down there.

If that’s the case, I’ll just take a big sip and get out of there leisurely.

The problem was that it was becoming increasingly difficult to maintain the adult form with “Heart of the Elder Dragon” due to the excessive use of “Limit Break”.

Regardless of his abilities, his body was still just a hatchling.

‘But it’s not bad. Above all, I discovered the possibility this time.’

Apart from the rapid growth of the body, the growth of the body for which the only answer was to grow older.

The solution to a chronic problem that had no choice but to be accepted had just been revealed.

‘I think it might take some time, too. Oh, more than that, for now, we should finish from there first.’

Horus’ gaze was directed towards the battlefield below, especially towards the direction where the demonic cultists were concentrated.

Even if they were a demonic cult without blood or tears, there was no way there would be no confusion when their entire rear was blown away by an attack of this magnitude.

If it weren’t for the presence of strongmen who only follow orders without emotion, it would have already collapsed helplessly.

‘Well, that’s over now. ‘I’ll try to finish it soon.’

This is enough to show you.

The fatal damage suffered by the demonic cultists will instill a sufficient sense of crisis and alertness in the beings of this world, and that resentment will become a medium that unites them.

The high-ranking undead, including the monster Gangshi, that were consumed in the process were a bit of a waste, but they were not made into awakened people anyway, so it was a trick that could only be used in this world.

Rather than just letting it fall by the wayside without a promise, it would be better to use this opportunity to have the maximum impact and burn it down in a flashy manner.

‘If you care about something in the first place, it turns into shit. Unlike Outerika, it is also a situation where we have to focus more on restoring a world that has already collapsed. There are plenty of alternatives if necessary.’

All related technologies have already been acquired, and the remnants of the Demonic Cult, which will be used to periodically raise awareness, have been kept on leashes in their home base, Cheonsan.

All that remains is the task of rebuilding the Dragon’s Heart.

“The Second Coming of the Heavenly Demon, Manmaangbok!”

“die!”

“Ugh! Heavenly Mai!”

About half a day since the battle began.

The war that would determine the fate of this world was coming to an end.

***

“Puh-huh—it ended up like this. “It’s a shame, it’s a shame.”

Yeo Mun-cheol, the Demon Sword Demon Emperor who protects the Heavenly Demon Church, let out a low laugh.

The swordsman Namgung-woo, who was facing him, opened his mouth with a stern expression.

“This is the end, Yeo Mun-cheol.”

“Cough—!”

Blackened blood poured out from the mouth of the Ghost Sword Demon Emperor, who had both his arms cut off and a sword stuck in his heart.

Even with blood flowing from the corner of his mouth, the sneer in his one-eyed presbyopia did not disappear.

“Hehehe… I never thought I would end up like this because of that thunderbolt. “If we had fought properly, the outcome would have been different.”

“The guy who lost on the battlefield talks a lot. “If you’re going to say something like that, shouldn’t you have been confined to the training ground?”

The fight between the two people that had continued until now became a close fight.

In such a situation, the victory or defeat between them was bound to be greatly influenced by the changed surrounding circumstances.

“Then I will go help somewhere else, sir.”

That decisive variable.

A young man with a dragon-shaped sword wrapped around his entire body… no, a young man slightly lowered his head and immediately launched himself.

A simple movement like a dragon playing in the clouds.

Glancing at this from the corner of his eye, the Demon Sword Demon Emperor twitched the corner of his mouth and shook his head.

“Fukkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk? It is such a young lump of blood that cut off the arm of this Demon Sword Demon Emperor! Hwa-kyung in his early twenties? “The sky has decided.”

Geomsung also agreed with those words.

I thought my grandson, who reached his peak in his mid-twenties, was a genius, but that man was far beyond my imagination!

The first meeting at the Shaolin Temple was at its peak, and when the Demonic Cult attacked, it was at its peak. Now that they have reunited after a long time, it is Hwa-gyeong.

Even considering that he was from another world, his growth rate was unbelievable.

At this level, it can be seen that the sky has made up its mind to support him.

‘It’s as if the next best person in the world has already been appointed.’

The Sword Saint’s eyes turned to where the young man was heading.

A strong force in the shape of a dragon shone brightly and swept across the battlefield.

The eyes of other people naturally focused on his location due to his gorgeous yet overwhelming appearance.

An attractive force that draws everyone in.

It wasn’t just the quality of nothing, there was something unknown about him.

‘A young hero who appeared in difficult times?’

Just infiltrating the enemy camp alone and rescuing the children of the dragon is already meritorious enough.

If it weren’t for him, the Demonic Cult’s ritual would have been completed during the war, and something might have happened, and even if they had won, all the sacrifices would have been sacrificed, and there would have been no hope left in this land.

But to stand on the front line like that and even take the lead in helping warriors in crisis…

“Well, now that I think about it, Soran seems to be very interested in that guy.”

He stroked his beard with a serious expression, lost in thought.

Not because she was his granddaughter, but because Nangong Soran’s fair complexion was so beautiful that she was even called the best in Anhui.

After all, it would be natural for a hostess who married into a prestigious family with a long history, such as the Namgung family, to disapprove.

Aren’t the Sword Saint’s mother, wife, and daughter-in-law all desperate right now?

The only worry is that he is a person from another world who doesn’t know when he will return to his hometown.

‘If you live with affection, it’s your hometown. Even if you settle in this world, the level you have achieved will not go down.’

Also, since I don’t have a biological family, I was able to naturally welcome Daryl as my son-in-law.

Plus, there was a child named Jegal Hye-mi who seemed to be a strong competitor…

After thinking about that, he paused and shook his head.

Anyway, I am reluctant to welcome other people’s misfortune.

“The sound of hair rolling can be heard all the way from here… “Bwak!”

Sigh—!

“I forgot about you for a moment.”

Freed from his thoughts by the voice of the Ghost Sword Demon Emperor, Sword Saint immediately pulled the sword from his heart and cut off his head.

Since he was an expert in the magic arts, it seemed like he would not die easily from being stabbed in the heart.

To make sure, he blew off the brain with a strong sword and completely destroyed the heart and dantian.

“…….”

The moment that puts an end to a long, bad relationship.

Geomseong closed his eyes for a moment and lost himself in sentiment, but soon opened his eyes again and flew to another place.

‘Now is not the time to be like this.’

The place where the fiercest fighting takes place on this battlefield.

To the place where the final battle with the Heavenly Demon takes place.

***

The battlefield began to tilt rapidly.

The harsh environment of the Demon World was suppressed by the power of the five dragons, and the military inferiority was alleviated by the brave monsters who participated in the war.

Thanks to this, those who were able to catch their breath were able to afford to help others around them, and it rolled like a snowball, affecting the fight between the strongest players on both sides.

The Ghost Sword Demon Emperor passed away at the hands of the Sword Saint, and the Blood Demon Jiangshi was destroyed by Emperor Paecheon.

The fight between the Hwagyeong level no longer required the help of the Sura Blood Zone, and the top level monsters, including Kirin, fell one by one due to the joint attacks of many monsters and warriors.

And all that power started to be projected onto one person.

It was the final boss of this stage, Cheonma.

Kwaaaang—!

Kugugu Palace—

the heart of the battlefield.

A terrifying battle was taking place, accompanied by a loud roar.

A series of battles taking place against Inyoung, whose entire body is covered in black energy.

However, the majority was not able to easily win.

“…Amitabha Buddha I was just wondering. “It seems that the Heavenly Demon Lord abandoned humanity and became a monster himself.”

The power itself was not that lacking, but some unknown force was constantly giving him strength.

It also played a role in the fact that Shin Gwangma’s momentum, which had been holding on at the forefront, had decreased considerably, as he must have used all his strength in the fight so far.

“You’re crazy. A person who faces Shinhwa-gyeong turns himself into a jiangshi. “What are you thinking?”

“Huh! That was real? I thought they used some kind of demonic evil method. “You were crazier than I thought, right?”

In the process, the Heavenly Demon did its best to fight back, so even the Heavenly Demon’s magical energy could no longer completely cover up the energy of death.

Those who had been skeptical until now were convinced and expressed astonishment, but—.

“…This is a lot of death.”

Meanwhile, Cheonma just looked around and reacted calmly.

There were numerous casualties on both sides, and there were horrible corpses scattered all over the place. Even at this very moment, his men were continuing to die, and the entire space was full of morale, but he seemed not to care at all.

“ah! “You said you were wondering why I put myself in death?”

It seems like everything is going according to plan.

The monster imitating the living smiled fiercely.

Now, as if there was no need to hide it, the secretly hidden energy of death began to encroach upon the entire body.

“I got something nice recently. “Very good.”

Gooooo—

a pitch-black energy burst out from his body.

A power that goes beyond pitch black and embraces darkness like an abyss deep underground.

This is the moment when the unmanned soldiers take a step back and take a defensive stance.

[Wait a minute, this energy!]

White Dragon, who was concentrating on fixing the distortion of space, let out an expression of astonishment.

An energy that I had personally experienced in the past was suddenly making its presence known.

From deep underground in this magical land.

[No way!]

Tam, the great enemy of Geumo Island, who devoured countless dragons with the power of gluttony.

Baekryong was able to find out that the remains were buried underground in this demonic world.

And even that it was connected to the Heavenly Demon and activated.

[Is that the source of its endless power? It must be stopped! When the author uses that power!]

However, the white dragon’s cry seemed a little late.

Before those who responded to the voice could make any move, the Heavenly Demon, who had been immersed in the darkness that covered the ground in an instant, suddenly appeared outside the expert’s siege.

“No!”

In his right hand, he was holding the leash of Zhuge Hyemi, one of the dragon children who had retreated to the rear.

“Finally, all conditions have been met.”

A land where death is rampant and fraud abounds.

Tom, a predator with a strong presence even in death.

A person who has accepted death and has become one with it.

“Give up your karma.”

After swallowing up a lot of karma, he was eventually swallowed up by his own karma.

The Karma Gangshi, the Heavenly Demon, began to absorb the karma of the ‘Dragon Child’—.

“Anyone wants!”

Seok—

With the voice that intervened at that moment.

A sharp cutting sound cut through the space.

“Are you okay, Zhuge Xiaoze?”

“Cluck cluck… Ha ha Confucius?”

I don’t know when he arrived at the scene, but at a desperate moment, the young hero hugged Zhuge Hye-mi, who had rescued Cheonma by cutting off his arm, and retreated.

And the masters of Hyeon-gyeong, who did not miss the moment he had earned, quickly approached and surrounded Cheonma again, who frowned as he looked down at his severed forearm.

“…You bastard. You are disturbing me until the very end…!”

The dragons floating in the sky approached and slowly circled above his head, who was spewing out anger as if he had missed a golden opportunity.

Now, I’m glaring at him with wide eyes as if I won’t just sit by and watch him no matter what he does.

‘done.’

The eyes of Horus, the gold dragon caught in the gap, twinkled slightly.

Finally, all the puzzles for the correct ending are in place.
