Overgeared

Chapter 1768

The flames of Fire Dragon Trauka weren’t extinguished. They remained even after Xenon’s massive body turned to ash, engulfing Reidan’s land and buildings. It was also about to engulf Grid.

‘There is no need to be afraid.’

Fire, like metal, was a concept that formed Grid’s mental world. In the Sanctuary of Metal, there was a hot fire in the background where all forms of battle gear were present. Grid believed that even though the flames of the Fire Dragon were very strong, he could control them.

He was mistaken.

“......!”

Grid’s eyes gradually widened as he was closely watching Trauka. He belatedly noticed that none of the bright red flames surrounding Reidan were burning it.

Were these really the flames that turned Gray Dragon Xenon to ashes a moment ago? The flames of the Fire Dragon were so cold that such a question arose. The soil, vegetation, buildings, and people of Reidan—everything engulfed in the flames remained in shape.

‘Mental world...’

Grid noticed the identity of the flames. This wasn’t a by-product of the oxidation process. It wasn’t an element of magic, nor a phenomenon reproduced by divinity or magic power. It was just the embodiment of Fire Dragon Trauka’s will. In other words, it was like Greed that made up the Sanctuary of Metal. It didn’t allow the intervention of others. All the results of the flames were purely in accordance with Trauka’s will.

“...A request?”

There were some things that Grid couldn’t tolerate. Hurting those he had a relationship with and coveting his property. Fire Dragon Trauka was obviously Grid’s enemy from the moment he harmed Xenon.

Of course, Xenon wasn’t Grid’s friend. They had no personal interactions. However, he was a valuable backer who provided the materials for a dragon weapon every month. It wasn’t known what Xenon thought of Grid, but Grid was always grateful to Xenon. He personally had good feelings toward Xenon.

Although Grid was very angry at Xenon’s death, he decided to have a conversation for now. The value of Trauka’s name was too high for Grid to demand that he pay for his crimes without a conversation. It was the same even though the modifier ‘wounded’ was attached to Trauka’s name.

Fire Dragon Ifrit, the one who made Grid the main character of ‘Crazy God and Crazy Dragon’—thanks to her targeting Trauka in an attempt at mutual destruction, the tower members speculated that Trauka would have to recuperate for hundreds of years.

Despite the speculation, Trauka emerged from his lair and was active. He killed Gray Dragon Xenon so easily.

A dragon heart—he was also absorbing the powerful magic power and vitality contained in Xenon’s heart in real time. In the first place, he was an old dragon. Putting aside his wounds, he was one of the strongest beings.

“What type of request are you going to make?” Grid suppressed his boiling anger and asked as politely as possible. Good anger management while hiding it from the opponent—this was one of Grid’s advantages.

As expected. Trauka’s flames, which had been spreading all throughout Reidan, quickly died down. It was sucked into Trauka’s mouth and nose, as if he was breathing in, before finally disappearing completely. Trauka’s body was surrounded by an intense light and rapidly shrank.

A body size that was bigger than a great mountain—he took back the body that overshadowed half of Reidan and took on a human form. It was Polymorph. The human version of Trauka was a beautiful, red-haired man. Nevertheless, the pressure he gave off remained.

His height was easily over two meters, his hair was like flames, his teeth were sharper than any other beast, and he had sanpaku eyes. [1]

It could be clearly seen that this person was a non-human being. He looked completely different from Gourmet Dragon Raiders. The human version of Raiders had given Grid a sense of intimidation due to the mysterious eyes where no emotions could be read.
