Chapter 243.2
Team: HH, thursdays, Yahiko
[The player ‘Chimmy’ has died . ]
[You have cleared a part of the quest . Hunting ‘Chimmy’ has contributed to the quest, and you have earned a large amount of mana . ]
Chimmy’s death was a great shock to the Red Dragon .
『Second brother!』
『Imun!』
The Nine Dragon Sons were the strongest in the Tower and ruled in place of the Summer Queen . Each of them had the qualifications of apostles, Lords, and supernaturals .
But such a person had died? The 81 Eyes were greatly shocked .
The problem was that this was only the beginning .
Swekkkkkkk!
S, swek—
『Dammit! That damned spear again!』
『Run away!』
The Dragon Killer shined . Every time it flashed, the Nine Dragon Sons were busy running away .
Its destructive strength was incredible, but the Devil King poison and lightning that came after it were even more shocking .
They realized that they would only be safe if they ran away from it . As they had the blood of dragons inside of them, they couldn’t escape from the curse of the Devil King Poison .
『That human doesn’t know his place!』
The fourth, Triger, kicked off from the ground and dashed at Yeon-woo . He was a 4-meter-long drake . The ground shook like an earthquake was occurring .
In front of him, Shanon, Hanryeong, and Rebecca stepped up .
『Move, you fools!!』
Triger straightened his back to take care of them in a single blow . A lashing sandstorm arose, and the horn in his nose was about to pierce them, but—
Clang!
Shanon lifted his blade filled with black demonic energy, expelling fire .
Hanryeong drew two of his swords mid-air, and Rebecca quickly dropped from the sky and landed on Triger’s head .
Kwang!
Rumble—
Triger stepped on the two Undead and steadily moved forward . However, before he got to Yeon-woo, he was stopped again .
Rebecca suddenly jumped on his head, the Dragon Killer landing right in the middle of it .
The Dragon Killer exploded on his head and Wave of Fire fell atop of it, but his skin was only slightly damaged .
The Devil King Poison wasn’t able to pierce it .
『I’ll kill you!』
Learning that Yeon-woo’s attacks didn’t work on him, Triger confidently took a step .
Triger glowered at Yeon-woo with his large eyes . His vertically slit eyes flashed coldly .
Kwang!
But regardless of that, Yeon-woo threw another Dragon Killer at him with apathetic eyes .
『Ha! Try that a hundred more times!』
Triger just scoffed .
『Do you think…… . 』
Kwang! Kwakwang!
『things…… like that……!』
Kwaang!
『……will……!』
Kwakwang! Kwakwakwang!
『What is…… this』
Kwang! Kwang! Kwang! Kwang!
Kwaang!
Triger tried to push his way forward . However, as time went on and he continued to walk, he felt something ominous .
Like he was being hit with a firm diamond hammer .
Yeon-woo continued to throw his Dragon Killers from where he was .
At first, his skin was only slightly damaged, but cracks began to form all over his forehead .
If this continued, his outer layer would be destroyed . A warning bell instinctively rang in his head .
He attempted to change direction from his anxiety, but this time, his body didn’t budge, like he was chained up .
「Mr . Triger, where are you going?」

Shanon whispered in Triger’s ear, like his hesitant attitude until now had only been a lie .
It sounded like the whisper of a grim reaper to Triger .
The shadow around his feet tied around his body . Tens of Monsters were binding him so he couldn’t move .
『F***! Let me go! I said to let me go!』
Triger cried out thinking that he was really in danger, but the Dragon Killers continued to fly through the air at him .
Swek—
Kwang!
It landed on his forehead, more destructive than before . His broken outer skin pieces broke off .
The pieces of the Dragon Killer stuck in his skin and poisoned him .
Urrr, kwakwakwang!
A Wave of Fire came from the sky in the form of lightning, and his horn and forehead were completely blown away .
Crisply burnt pieces of his outer skin poured to the ground . White steam came from his head, and smoke came from his mouth and ears .
Triger collapsed helplessly to the ground .
Koong!
The ground shook from his heavy weight .
Yeon-woo lifted a Dragon Killer again with the thought of ending it . Just when he was about to throw it, something suddenly popped up next to Triger and ran away with Triger in his mouth .
It was a wyvern in the form of a bird-like creature, with a long tail and horns .
It was the youngest of the Nine Dragon Sons, Tom .
「Shoot!」
He was so fast that he was already far away by the time that Shanon and Hanryeong began their pursuit .
The two undeads tried to run after him, but Yeon-woo quickly stopped them .
『Don’t chase them!』
Shanon and Hanryeong stopped in their tracks .
『It’s a shame we lost them, but try not to move from where we are . It’s important that you block anyone from approaching . 』
Yeon-woo lifted his head as he gave the orders .
Far off in the distance, he could see the Summer Queen and Martial King still fighting . The Summer Queen was still destroying the stage although her wings and a leg were plucked out .
However, only the Summer Queen and the Martial King were left .
The Nine Dragon Sons and the 81 Eyes who joined the fight to help the Summer Queen couldn’t be found .

They had left because of the Dragon Killer .
And this was what Yeon-woo was aiming for . The Summer Queen left on her own, and there was no one left to bother his hunt .
Yeon-woo stretched his hand to where the Dragon Killers were propped in the ground . He had 8 of them left .
‘In this battlefield . ’
He lifted one of them .
‘I’ll catch her . ’
Crunch—
The buffs that Brahm and Boo were giving him twisted his body, and he was healed by Regeneration .
He gripped the Dragon Killer tighter .
『Haa, ha……!』
Thump . Thump . Thump . Triger breathed heavily listening to the footsteps that rang throughout his body .
Black smoke continued to billow from his mouth . Half of his head was broken, so he couldn’t pull himself together .
But there was one thing he was sure of . He had barely survived . It was all thanks to the youngest .
『T…… hanks . I survived…… because of you . 』
Triger was genuinely grateful towards Tom . Until now, he had looked down on Tom because he was the youngest .
Though he had been giggling as Tom was scolded by their mother, he was now saved by him .
Although his pride was hurt, he was grateful .
If Tom had been in his shoes, Triger would’ve snorted, saying he was a fool for being injured by a mere human .
That was their relationship .
Even if they were bound by the frame of brethren, they always fought to have their mother’s love for themselves .
He thought Tom felt the same, but it seemed like Tom thought of him as an actual brother .
『No worries . I’m the grateful one . 』
『What are you talking about?』
Tom quietly put Triger down after they were far away from the battlefield .
Triger forced himself to look at Tom with his barely healed head . He didn’t have his vision completely back yet, but he could recognize Tom .
However .

『I don’t know if you know this . Brother . 』
Strangely, he felt like Tom was smiling . Smiling in this situation? When the war was tilting in their enemy’s favor?
『Mother will probably die today . 』
Triger frowned at what Tom said . His expression didn’t change much because he was a reptile, but wrinkles grew along his eyes .
『What are you talking about?』
The Summer Queen was basically a god in the Red Dragon . To the Nine Dragon Sons, she was more than a god .
She was a mother who shared her blood . It was impossible for someone like that to die . It was something that shouldn’t be thought of or spoken of .
But Tom just smiled coldly like he didn’t care .
『It’s already over . How can she win, with her wings already torn off by the Martial King? Even if she does, Devil Poison already entered her body . Because she used an immense amount of her life force, she probably only has a day or two left at most . 』
『Shut up! Mother won’t die!』
『Dragons will go completely extinct with this, like the Giant species . And what’s left? Wyverns . Us dragon soldiers who received mother’s blood . We’ll be a new Draconic species, taking over the spot of the disappeared Draconic species . 』
『……!』
『And for that, what do you think is needed?』
『Stay away from me . Don’t come any closer!』
Triger realized what Tom wanted and tried to step back . But his head was still dizzy . His four feet didn’t have any strength left . The Devil King Poison had entered his marrow . His body was rotting from the inside out .
『My name is Tom . Someone who’ll ‘tom(貪)’ after things . Greed, gluttony . Anything is fine . They say that the youngest is greedy . So that’s why . 』[TN: Tom is romanized Korean for greed . ]
Stomp!
Tom’s footsteps became louder . It sounded like the grim reaper’s footsteps to Triger . He struggled, but he didn’t have any strength left . His power had all evaporated .
And soon, Tom’s large shadow covered Triger’s eyes .
『I must have that spot in the Draconic species . Taking the strength of you guys, who looked down on me . 』
The Summer Queen’s power was split into many pieces amongst her children . Because she could take it back anytime, they were always wary of her .
But during this time, when it was sure that their mother would die, where would the power go? And what of the Dragon’s Blood?
There was one answer . Finders keepers .
Crunch!
Tom stretched his mouth open wide and dug his teeth into Triger’s broken head .
With a cracking sound, Tom’s strong chin broke Triger’s head . Flesh and brain fluid was sucked into his mouth .
Filtering the Devil King Poison out, Tom ate and ate .
