“D, Dragons? What nonsense!”

The knight looked at Eruhaben and raised his voice as if telling him not to speak nonsense.

However, his voice was shaking so much.

‘...The palace-’

The palace right next to the Emperor’s Palace was disappearing.

It did not get destroyed.

It did not crumble.

‘Powder-’

The palace was turning into powder, into dust and instantly disappearing.

“Haaaa.”

Eruhaben let out a short laugh and smiled.

“Whether my existence makes sense or not... Why is a punk like you making a judgment on them? Who do you think you are?”

Ooooooooong-

Gold dust sparkled around Eruhaben as they rumbled.

The knight felt as if his grip on his sword would release.

That wasn’t all.

The eyes of everybody around them were shaking.

‘...His pupils!’

The blond man... His pupils became long vertically.

“My goodness, h, he truly is a Dragon......?!”

Plop. A black mage, who had been using the staff in his hand like a cane to stay standing, ended up with one knee on the ground.

Black mages. They were people who used magic, albeit using dead mana.

Dragons who used mana as if they were born with the instinct to use it were creatures of legends and mythologies to them.

They had thought, ‘oh she is a Dragon,’ when the black-haired woman who was the Imperial Crown Prince's helper was introduced as a Dragon, but... Recognizing that and facing the strength of one was completely different.

“...Haaaaaaaaaa........”

Aphei let out a deep sigh.

She looked down at her hands. Her fingertips were slightly shaking.

Her eyes moved past her hand to the ancient Dragon in front of her again.

She was looking at his back.

This Dragon was angry.

Since he learned that the Dragons of this world went extinct because of the Hunters...

Since he learned that they made Aphei be born inside dead mana...

Since he heard that they took the traces of the dead Dragons, the corpses, and turned them into jiangshis...

This extremely dignified Dragon had been sharpening his anger.

And the moment the chains on this dignified Dragon were removed...

‘Ah.’

Aphei's body started shaking as she recalled that moment.

It was trembling.

‘Eruhaben-nim, please make a large explosion that will be visible from the central plaza. As for the rest, please feel free to do whatever you'd like.’

The Purifier did not give the ancient Dragon any specifics.

It was as if he knew what the ancient Dragon would do even without telling him anything.

Shaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-

The gold dust fluttered in the wind. The ancient Dragon looked around before calmly speaking.

“But why aren’t there more?”

One of the palaces in the Imperial Palace was gone and there was a large explosion in the Imperial Palace Black Mages building that was a bit away from them.

Although Eruhaben asked, wondering why the amount of troops who had come to capture him was so little, he quickly found the answer.

‘A large number of troops must have gone to the central plaza.’

He realized that the Huayans patriarch had pulled some kind of ploy.

But it didn’t matter.

Today was a day he could do as he pleased.

“I’ve never been that nice of a Dragon.”

Oooooo-- oooooo--

A significant amount of mana fluctuated with Eruhaben at the center.

Suffocating pressure flowed out of him.

It was Dragon Fear.

“But it's about to get even worse today.”

Eruhaben moved his hand.

The gold dust pushed forward toward the enemy like waves.

“S, stop him!”

"Fuck, deliver a message to the central plaza right away!”

One of the knights shouted to his subordinate.

“Let them know that the entire Imperial Palace might get destroyed! Go now!”

Eruhaben was speaking into Aphei's mind at that moment.

- Watch and learn.

The corners of Aphei’s lips curled up.

Aphei started fidgeting even more thinking about watching Eruhaben destroy everything. However, Eruhaben was not done speaking.
