106 – Apocrypha) How Taeyang Geum spends winter vacation

Meanwhile, somewhere far away from the continent.

A mysterious land that is not marked on the standard map of the empire.

Land of the Forgotten, Deertant.

A forest of giant maple trees, nestled in its center

Redwood Sea, Ploythun.

“Hmm~ I think it was about this~?”

A blonde boy was crossing the forest.

Slowly, lightly stepping on the red fallen leaves.

As if he were on a picnic, he walked among the maple trees dyed in the glow of the sunset.

“It’s strange~ From my memory, this is the right place…”

A boy looking around for a long time, looking for something.

A vague figure suddenly appeared in front of him as he tilted his head with a shallow nasal sound.

“Who wakes me up?”

A voice that sounds horrifying.

At that voice, which contained a great sense of intimidation, the mana in the surrounding area was weakly fluctuated.

In the midst of the pressure that distorted the space, the swaying ink-colored figure glared at the boy and said,

“For stepping into my territory without fear… You will have to pay for that arrogance with your life.”

“Whoa…. Aren’t they acting too tight? The same dragons.”

“What? How did you know I was a dragon… No, more than that, what…?

In-young puts a dumbfounded expression on the blonde boy’s words.

The boy looked at the haze and let out a chuckle.

“Red dragon… Among them, the dragon lord and the Plagues.”

“How did you do that…”

Plaguers, who had been hiding his identity with an ink-colored human figure, frowned in bewilderment.

It was because of the boy in front of him who, despite having cast a perception-decreasing magic so powerful that the space seemed distorted, saw through to his true identity at once.

“You bastard… what is your true identity?”

“Umm~ My name? It’s Golden Taeyang.”

“I didn’t ask for that! How can you recognize my existence…? How do you know that I’m a Dragon Lord!”

“I told you, I’m a dragon too.”

“Sounds funny! Among the dragons I know, there is no one like you!”

“Really? Hmm~ Something a little strange? There’s no way you can’t remember me…”

A boy scratching his head at Plagus’s words.

He drooled and licked his lips for a while, but then, as if he had belatedly remembered, he tapped his forehead.

“Aha~! You don’t recognize me because I look like this?”

“What…?”

“Sorry, sorry. Wait a little bit, I’ll return to my original form.”

The boy waved his hands at the Plagues as if telling them to wait and closed his eyes.

He muttered something incomprehensible with his head down, then raised his fingers high in the sky and snapped them vigorously.

ㅡTack!

The thumb and middle finger rub against each other, making a grating sound, and the waves of that small sound spread out to the surroundings.

At the same time, the boy’s surroundings shook and changed.

“How about you, can you find out now?”

Hair turned from gold to white.

White eyes shining with light blue sky.

Small blue sparks bouncing around both arms.

Seeing the boy who had changed in an instant, Plagues hardened his expression.

“I can’t believe it… that appearance is, the thunder dragon’s family…?”

“You know, too.”

“Uh, how… is the Thunder Dragon family still alive? They must have been extinct 200 years ago…”

Seeing the remnants of the past suddenly appearing in front of his eyes, Plagues stuttered, unable to hide his bewilderment.

The white-haired boy erased the expression that had been laughing at his appearance.

The smirk disappears from the corners of his lips, leaving only cold eyes on his dark face.

The boy said in a chilling voice.

“I’ve come to get paid, Plaguers.”

“That, what is that…”

“When our clan was being hunted. The price we paid for hiding and ignoring our request for help.”

ㅡPajijijik!!!

Blue lightning begins to whirl around the boy.

Sweeping away the white bangs that were fluttering due to the wave of power, his pupils shone viciously.

“Because of you, my mother died a miserable death.”

“This is nonsense! Wasn’t dragon hunting something humans did!!”

“Yes, I did… But you guys were the ones who ignored our dying clan and didn’t extend a helping hand.”

If you guys didn’t get scared and hide like idiots, my mother would still be alive.

The boy said that while showing deep hatred through his blue eyes.

Plagueus let out a roar at the pressure that felt like it was gradually pressing down on his whole body.

“Don’t talk without knowing anything!! We will…!”

“Did you make a deal with the humans? You were guaranteed your safety on the condition that we tell you the location of our clan, right?”

“Uh, how…”

“How did you hear it from other guys?”

“The others…? All those who knew about it are dead…”

Plaguers, who raised doubts about the boy’s words, soon showed a shocked expression.

“I can’t believe… the last 200 years of hunting Lord-class dragons…”

“Right, that’s me.”

“……”

“Since you’ve killed all the green, blue, black, and gold… now it’s your turn.”

A boy who responds with a plain positivity in response to an unexpected question.

The Plagues stretched out his arms, his eyes glowing red.

“Who are you saying you can kill at will! I am the Red Dragon Lord, Plaguers!!”

“whatever.”

“No matter how much they are members of the Thunder Dragon family… at least a kid who is less than 300 years old can’t do anything about it!!”

ㅡKood, Wooddeuk!

With the sound of bones and flesh twisting, Plagues’s appearance begins to change.

The shimmering haze disappeared, and the body gradually swelled up.

Arms with red wings sprouting out,

A huge tail that emerges from the buttocks.

Plagueus, who released the polymorph in an instant, became a fire dragon exuding a bloody atmosphere.

“I’ll kill you, ghosts of the past!!”

Plagueus opened its huge mouth with a bloody aura flying in the air.

The white-haired boy let out a small laugh as he saw the red dragon preparing to unleash its breath.

“What are you saying. You asshole.”

The boy’s hand goes up to the sky again.

Paperweight! The lingering sounds that spring up flow through the surrounding air.

“The Book Of Destruction”

A blue current shimmers above the white pupils.

In exchange for life, you gain enormous power.

4000 hidden years to offer,

The power you desire is the sea.

“Spear of annihilation, come to me.”

-Electric Extermination-

ㅡDaak, Kwajijik!!!

At the same time as the sound of lightly snapping fingers echoed, a flash of blue light rushed around the boy.

The white-haired boy clenched his fist, from which high-voltage electricity emanated, and threw it at the enemy in front of him with all his might.

OK….

ㅡPuck…

With a dull sound, a hole pierces the body of Plagueus, who was preparing for a breath.

….No, even if it was a hole, it did something.

Most of his body parts were missing except for his limbs and long neck.

ㅡChulppuduk, patter…

Slices of meat, which were clearly in the shape of life just a few seconds ago, fell to the floor.

In the red blood that soaked the floor, the boy quietly brushed off his scorched hands.

He stood, stepping on the dragon head fragment that was spread out on the floor.

“Whoa… I’ll follow you…”

Possibly because he used excessively to cut down on his life span, blood was leaking from his mouth.

Forcibly swallowing the coughing up blood that was about to spill out, the boy wiped the red marks from the corners of his mouth.

“Once, eh… Gee, nonsense, no way…”

“Crazy, is this still alive?”

Even though the body was blown away and only the head remained, the Plaguers are still wriggling and carrying on their feeble life activities.

The boy exclaimed in admiration at the tough life force unique to the red dragon and stuck out his tongue.

“The thunder dragon’s clan, even if it is said… It is a power that cannot be, explained…”

“Shut up and die quickly. It’s because your life span hurts.”

“You bastard, what is your true identity… What, is it…”

Plagueus asked with his last breath.

At that question, the white-haired boy spat out bloody phlegm.

“Kaak, twee… Do you have a lot of f*cking questions?

“To rot…”

“…Well, since it’s the last time, I’ll answer that much.”

listen carefully.

This is revenge for the despair of the past,

It is the price of comfort that your people will face incessantly in the future.

“My name is Zenotus.”

The last remaining thunder dragon clan in this world,

The wealth of an empire that exists in unrecorded history.

and….

“It’s your punishment.”

ㅡQuad Deuk!!

The boy’s fist, fired once again, shattered the head of Plagueus, who was still breathing weakly.

In front of a chunk of crushed meat, the gray-haired boy sat down with a moan.

He stretched out on the floor for a moment, savoring the scent of blood that lingered in his nose, then suddenly raised his head and looked up at the sky.

“…..I want to see my mother.”

A word leaked out between the lips of the dark light.

Deep longing and pale emptiness are buried,

It was a small murmur.
