chapter 488
488 – I became a servant obsessed with dragons -Complete-
One.
The identity of what has been staying by the breeder’s side under the name of the system is none other than me.
Derke, the beginning of the clan of death.
Of course, it was not possible to help him in the name of a system from the beginning.
At first, I was nothing more than a dead person.
Although he was the ancestor of a clan that controlled death,
Because it was my first time experiencing death directly.
Death was literally lonely and lonely.
Because I was a dragon student with a lot of regrets.
Moreover, my heart was even more heavy because my daughter was left alone.
Because after my life is over,
I was about to give up on the next retreat.
At that time, all that remained were miserable and unhappy memories of being betrayed by love.
I had no intention of being reborn with this heartbreaking memory. Because of this, he just wandered around meaninglessly as a dead person for a long time.
But time is medicine… … . It was impossible to completely forget and erase someone you once truly loved.
I wanted to see your face one last time.
I wanted to see how you were doing so far.
I was satisfied with just seeing his happy face and thought about disappearing.
It wasn’t that difficult to find him.
Because my relationship was connected to Dragon Heart.
By tracing that energy, I was finally able to find the breeder.
But when I found him, I couldn’t help but be shocked.
As expected, he was already surrounded by the dead. So, I was surprised to see a ghost in the case of a dead person who had become a spirit.
But that surprise was short-lived,
I recognized them right away.
Five spirits hovering around the breeder.
They were none other than his five ancestors who were his close friends and comrades in the past.
Even in death, they followed the breeder and tried to guide him on the right path until the end.
Their friendship was that genuine.
It continued even after death.
But on the other hand, my love… … .
Even their friendship wasn’t good enough. I thought we knew each other better than anyone else, but that was my own illusion.
Anyway, after that, I postponed both attaining Buddhahood and returning to join them. And naturally, I was able to clear up all the things I had been misunderstanding.
When I first realized that I had been fooled by Reverto’s simple flirtation… … . I was so embarrassed that I wanted to die. Even though he had already died once.
Anyway, after that I was able to officially join them. On a plan to help breeders left alone.
They had already been making grand plans long before they sealed the Demon Dragon and lost their lives.
Their plan was clear. Building a ‘system’ to help breeders. The reason they wanted to build the system, as they were well versed in the flow of mana, was simple.
They were able to stay by his side in the dead body due to the influence of the dragon heart remaining in the breeder’s body. However, they could only remain in the form of the dead for a very short time.
As expected, spirits are also beings that cannot defy the providence of time. With the passage of time, they too were eventually destined to disappear.
That’s why they were creating a system on their behalf.
-Derke..! You will take charge of managing the system. We will disappear soon, but you, the clan of death, will be able to postpone our return. So stay by the breeder’s side and use the system to guide your lover on the right path!
Sotero, the ancestor of dawn who led this plan even after his death, asked me to do it. Let me become the system itself.
I had no reason to refuse it. Because the construction of the system has already reached the final stage.
All I had to do was become the administrator of the system and run it. This was possible because, unlike them, I, a member of the clan of the dead, was able to maintain the body of the dead for a long time.
From then on, I have been by his side.
But the breeder is indeed the original being.
He noticed the existence of this system… … .
I created a portal with a similar concept myself.
A portal called “Destiny Dragons” that connects this place with other worlds.
And through that place, he even adopted his own agent.
Thanks to Breeder’s connection to the Internet and this world, I was able to receive numerous recipes and information from there. In order to create a familiar system environment for agents who will soon be moving there.
And as a result of operating the system thus far, going through many twists and turns… … .
“Breeder… ! “I’ve missed you so much!”
I was able to meet my love, the breeder, again.
Those days when we loved each other.
He was the same as he was back then.
I could feel the warm body temperature in the breeder’s arms.
“Derke… ? I never thought you were the system… … ?”
“is it so. “It was me.”
“How can that be? I didn’t expect that at all… … .”
“And that’s not all… … .”
“huh? Derke?”
“It’s just me… … . “Only I can destroy this evil being forever.”
ㅡSrurruk… !
After a brief reunion, I took a step back from his embrace. To remove the seeds of anxiety.
“D-Derke? What does that mean all of a sudden? If it’s an evil entity… … ?”
“that’s right. I should have dealt with it a long time ago… … .”
ㅡTeoup!
I snatched the demon dragon core from the breeder’s hand and widened the distance even further.
To conclude a reunion that was very short compared to the waiting period and to say goodbye once again.
‘But I’m glad I was able to say goodbye to you face to face this time.’
ㅡKkook… !
I looked at him like that.
The breeder was very embarrassed.
This time, I will say goodbye properly, which I couldn’t do last time.
In my heart, I wanted to spend the rest of my life with him, but this was the only way to destroy the demon dragon.
If the time was missed, the demon dragon could be resurrected.
“Breeder? Thank you for reminding me of love. And I’m sorry for the misunderstanding.”
“Wait a minute Derke… ?!”
“Then goodbye again…” … .”
Hwaaagh━──!
At the same time, I released all the magical power in my body. To return the Demon Dragon’s core to nothingness in exchange for my life.
Everything that touches me remains only a shell,
The kernel would be completely destroyed.
It would turn it into a state of nothingness, a state of complete death.
But that was then.
“ Oh, no—!!!!”
“B-breeder? What are you doing now… … ?!?!”
ㅡTeoup!
The breeder was looking at me with a puzzled expression… … . He suddenly grabbed my wrist.
He had already raised his entire body’s magical power to destroy the demon dragon’s core.
‘If it goes on like this, even the breeder gets caught up… … !?’
***
2.
Two months have already passed since the battle with the Demon Dragon that took place in the northern region of the Drango continent.
“Whoa… … .”
Just thinking about what happened back then is dizzying.
Because I had no idea Derke would do that.
To be exact, this was what Derke, the ancestor of death, did.
They say that only by sacrificing one’s own body can the demon dragon’s core be completely destroyed.
I couldn’t leave her alone like that.
It didn’t matter that they were past lovers.
We fought against the demon dragon to protect Derke and everyone, so we have to part ways like this?
I couldn’t understand it at all.
ㅡKkook… !
I held Derke’s hand tightly to prevent a one-sided breakup. Even if I got caught up in extinction, I wanted to stop it somehow.
And my reckless choice at that time ended up being… … .
“Huh? B, Breeder Oppa? What’s going on? Derke, for the sake of death that hurts your hands… !”
“Oh, sorry..! “I suddenly remembered that incident.”
Derke, who was walking next to me, looks up at me with a puzzled expression. With eyes that shine greener than a green meadow.
He looked as small and cute as when I first met him. The green horn was also completely gone. Just like returning to Derke at level 201.
“Is that really true? Derke was also thinking about that incident… ! Come to think of it, it’s been exactly two months since that tower was built!”
ㅡUgh!
Derke raises the other hand and points forward. A huge and tall tower built in the center of the academy.
“I know… … . It was a good thing I held your hand then. “I could not tolerate your disappearance more than the disappearance of the demon dragon.”
“Oppa..? “I’ve already heard that word forty-seven times!”
“Foot, I’m sorry. “I always get emotional when I come here.”
It was like that. That last moment,
It was a good thing I held Derke’s hand.
I was able to turn everything back by holding that hand.
The dragon hearts of my friends who remained within me must have responded to me, reacting with Derke’s magic and preventing their extinction.
And that wasn’t all.
-Another me, Breeder. I understand how you feel. I respect your choice as you said you would only hand over your knowledge and step down.
The breeder’s voice was heard in the middle.
To teach you how to keep me and Derke from falling apart.
If I were to compare it to a game, should I say it’s like a hidden choice that can twist the ending?
-Derke and I, who reside in that girl’s body, will take responsibility for the Demon Dragon’s core. Forever until the end of this world.
-Instead, please build a tower that can seal the Demon Dragon’s core for life. In the area you think is safest.
The method he proposed was simple.
It was decided to seal the demon dragon like in the past.
And that too with his past lover, Derke.
I said that if I build a tower to seal the demon dragon’s core, I will manage it for the rest of my life with Derke, my former lover.
Of course I accepted this offer.
And straight away they built a huge tower.
In the exact center of the academy located on Valkyrie Island.
And the object of my communion here for the rest of my life… … . No, I planned to be with my wives, teach future generations, and manage this tower.
“Hehe, don’t worry too much, Deathyong… ! “I can feel the happy energy inside the tower!”
“Derke… … .”
“You’ll be happy together in there for a lot longer than we did, so there’s nothing to worry about!”
“okay. I guess so? Because we are finally able to meet again… … .”
It was when I was taking a walk around the tower with Derke, thinking about such sad feelings.
“
White~Dunga—!!!!”
“… what? “Is this voice Leylin?”
Suddenly, Raylin’s loud voice was heard from behind. However, unlike usual, the voice sounded somewhat urgent.
“Now is not the time to take a leisurely walk… !!! “Let’s go in quickly!”
“Dep..? Seniors? Now is Derke’s time, Death Yong! The order is followed… … !”
“I didn’t come to steal your turn..! Senior Sophia laid an egg-!!! ”
“Whoa? Ah, eggs… !?”
“That can’t be… ? I knew there was about a week left until the due date… … ?”
The news that Leylin brought was truly shocking.
Suddenly giving birth to an egg?
“… That’s it! How long are you all going to stand there blankly?! Everyone move quickly! Is it okay for someone who is going to be the father of a special child to be like this—!?!?”
The unexpected news made me smile without knowing.
“Oh, yes… … !”
It looks like a noisy and happy daily life will continue even after the demon dragon is sealed.
For a lifetime with everyone I love.
