Book 1 - 2.6 Master vs Dragon
Book 1 - 2.6 Master vs Dragon
“Master…. That…”
Yulian was
stuttering in embarrassment. He could feel the Red Dragon laughing at
him. He could see the smile being painted on its face.
“You idiot. Back away.”
Chun
Myung Hoon turned his hand around to grab Yulian by the collar and
swung his arm. Yulian’s body went soaring through the sky like a tiny
rock and Chun Myung Hoon drew large circles with both of his arms.
- Breath (Breath of the Soul)
And the Red Dragon’s mouth opened.
A
powerful flame came bursting out of the dragon’s mouth, and the flame
covered Chun Myung Hoon faster than you could even blink.
Chun Myung Hoon quickly raised his Heavenly Breath to the twelfth level and used internal force to guide the flame.
It
was an amazing sight. The flame from the dragon was becoming a tornado
in front of Chun Myung Hoon, and Chun Myung Hoon continued to swing his
two arms while moving backwards to get rid of the flame. Yulian’s jaws
fell in disbelief as he was watching from far away, and it was the same
for the Red Dragon.
It was not even magic, it was not even a mana
field. All it was was a puny human swinging his two arms to put out his
breath. At first, he was amused at the vast amount of mana this old man
had, and shot out the breath expecting him to block it, but he could not
ever imagine him blocking it like this.
It was a short duration
of a few seconds, but it seemed like an eternity. But it finally ended
and Chun Myung Hoon yelled out loud.
“Looks like you’re a monster I
can’t let live. How dare an insect let out such great natural force. I
shall defeat you for the benefit of all the people of this world.”
As
Chun Myung Hoon dropped his arms, Yulian’s greatswords ended up in Chun
Myung Hoon’s hands before Yulian could even say ‘Ah!’ and Chun Myung
Hoon started to move his two feet quickly.
“Grrrr.”
The Red
Dragon let out a yell before flapping its wings and flying high into the
sky. At that moment, the greatswords in Chun Myung Hoon’s hands
scratched the bottom of the Dragon’s feet.
Clang.
It sounded like something hit the sword. But all he managed to do was scratch the tip of the dragon’s toenail.
“A flying insect…”
Chun Myung Hoon muttered in disbelief. He thought the wings were not usable, so he was shocked to see it fly so high in the sky.
- Human, do not swing your sword. I have no desire to kill you.
The booming voice of the Dragon in the sky came through in the language of the desert, but Chun Myung Hoon only snorted.
“Hmph, you think I can’t catch you because you flew up into the sky?”
Chun
Myung Hoon measured the distance between the two of them and started to
gather force into the blade before swinging. A strong force, visible to
the naked eye, started to form a Crescent shape before shooting off
into the sky.
It was not just one or two. Countless crescent
shaped force attacks filled the sky, with another crescent being added
every time he swung the sword.
Unfortunately, the dragon did not
look like he was concerned about it, avoiding it or using magic to
reflect it to make it disappear.
Seeing that his method was not
working, Chun Myung Hoon unwillingly stopped his blade. After flying in
circles a couple of times, the dragon landed back on the ground.
-
Human, I predicted that you will arrive in this world. And I have no
desires whatsoever to fight you. I was merely curious about your
strength and chose to test you. There is no reason to harbor any
negative feelings towards me.
The dragon spoke jovially as it lowered its head but Chun Myung Hoon just snorted as if he did not want to accept it.
“Hmph, an insect becoming curious about humans?”
- Raaaaawr. Do not ignore me. I am a being that has been here since the beginning of time.
“In our world, even dogs and cows have existed from the beginning of time along with humans.”
The
dragon did not know what ‘dogs and cows’ were, but he was able to
understand enough to know he was making fun of him. But there was
nothing he could do. The human in front of him was at the same level as
the undying granny on the magic tower. In addition, he was the first
person to arrive in this world as the prophecy stated.
As he was not an average person, the dragon spoke respectfully.
-
Put away your hostility. I have no desire to fight you, nor do I have
the desire to harm the young human behind you. I finally understand the
mission I was given.
“Hmph.”
As if he understood that he too
could not do anything to this large insect, Chun Myung Hoon continued
to show anger but did not swing his sword anymore.
- Young Human, come over here.
As the dragon called Yulian who was staring mindlessly from far away, Yulian looked to his master.
“Come over here.”
Once
he received his master’s approval, Yulian approached the Red Dragon.
Seeing Yulian approach, the Red Dragon spoke to Yulian.
- Due to
my silly mistake, I became involved with the large monster known as the
sandworm. I must thank you for getting me out of that predicament.
Technically,
the proper name for it is the Giant Sand Dragon, but the Dragon used
Chun Myung Hoon’s term for it, as if it could not believe that such a
monster would have the title of dragon. That’s why it used the term
sandworm when it thanked Yulian.
“Eh? Ahh… yes…”
- I can’t
stop admiring your bravery, young human. As a result, I am giving you my
blessing. Tell me your wish. A contract with a dragon follows you
forever. As long as there is no change to the laws of the world, I will
grant you your wish.
Yulian did not expect this from the Dragon and took turns looking at the Dragon and his master, as if the cat got his tongue.
“It looks like it has quite the ability. I will not get involved.”
Chun Myung Hoon thought that Yulian was considering his standing and and let him know.
Yulian finally opened his mouth to say:
“I do not know what kind of existence you are.”
-
There are not many humans who know of my existence. All you have to do
is tell me your wish. It was thanks to you that I was able to find out
my mission, and I may end up being stuck here for hundreds of years
because of you too.
“Please give confirmation and luck to my dream.”
The
Dragon thought Yulian’s answer was quite odd and tilted his head a bit
to look at Yulian. Right away, Yulian’s dream was transmitted to him.
That type of dream was something he could grant right now.
The dragon spoke.
- You’re not asking me to do it for you.
“My
dream is something that must be achieved by my hands. My revenge must
also be achieved by my own hands. If it is handled by someone else, it
is not my dream nor my revenge.”
Chun Myung Hoon was pleased with Yulian’s answer.
“This
punk may lack talent, but his determination is firm. He will definitely
end up a great being. I’m very proud. But of course. As my, Chun Myung
Hoon’s disciple, he needs to show that level of determination.”
-
From the beginning of time, the name that I have been given is Ultima
Ops Richard. I use my authority, which has been given to me since the
beginning of time to command to you, my blessing will protect you on the
battlefield.
Yulian felt his head clear with the Dragon’s answer.
The fatigue that he had instantly disappeared, and it was as if his
chest and dantian were rumbling greatly, as if it was vomiting out
force. That type of electricity filled his body.
“Ahhhhh~!”
This
type of unbelievable feeling led Yulian to unintentionally shout, and
Chun Myung Hoon nodded his head listening to the clear shout.
At
this level when he is only eighteen years old, if he continued to polish
his skills continuously, before the end of the year, he should be able
to control the force with his sword.
At that level, he’ll be similar in speed to the talented children in China.
The dragon then turned to Chun Myung Hoon.
- I did not know why I came here, but after meeting you, I have learned my mission. Do you know why you are here?
Chun Myung Hoon thought he might finally learn the reason he ended up here.
“Do you know why?”
- Know, I do. Long discussion, you and I need. (TL: Sounds like Yoda)
With the dragon’s response, Chun Myung Hoon said to Yulian:
“Congratulations
on your coming-of-age ceremony. You caught to monster with your courage
so return to the tribe proud. I must chat with this insect for a
while.”
“Yes, Master.”
As Yulian politely responded, Chun
Myung Hoon traded some words with the dragon before flying up and
landing on the dragon’s neck. The dragon then flapped its wings and flew
off into the sky.
Yulian stared until the dragon and his master
disappeared into the sky, and once they disappeared completely, he went
to get the Monster’s Soul from the two Sand Dragons.
The Monster’s
Soul for the Sand Dragon he slashed remained intact, however, there was
nothing left of the Sand Dragon that was ripped to shreds by the
dragon.
After putting the Sand Dragon’s Monster’s Soul in his pocket, Yulian smiled.
His
coming-of-age ceremony ended successfully, and his master showed a
satisfied smile. In addition, he received some type of blessing from an
ancient lifeform known as the dragon, which filled his entire body with
energy. There was nothing else he could ask for right now.
Yulian’s footsteps as he returned to the tribe felt very light.
TL:
This is the end of the “Coming-of-Age Ceremony” Arc.
Next up:
Red Storm
The
warriors’ mouths were filled with swear words. You couldn’t dream about
having complaints while getting stronger, but you couldn’t prevent
yourself from swearing.
(TL: Looks like we are about to see the creation of Red Storm begin!)
