“I got lucky. ”

Yongho was so kind.

Only one day after the first battle.

The dragon that fell right after the Cobalts surrendered could barely wake up after the desperate slumber. The muscles of my whole body screamed just by raising my torso while I was lying on my back or rolling.

I was really lucky.

What if you didn't get Amon right before the battle? I couldn't win.

What if the skeleton gets stuck a little late? I couldn't win, either.

‘I was crazy. ’

I can't believe you thought of running into that hammer.

Did Yong-ho have such an advantageous side to himself? Maybe it's a change from the Awakening of the Demon King?

But I won anyway. Survived.

Realistically, the split of my thoughts widened.

First things first, Amon. It still looks like a dark red skewer, but it's clearly lying next to its side.

And Katarina and Eligos.

“Lord!”

“Oh, you're awake. ”

I didn't see it right after I woke up, but now I know how I came to run. Both of them looked alike.

Like a baby bird staring at a mother bird?

‘Katarina is cute, but Eligos is a bit cute. ’

Katarina and Eligos responded again as the dragon laughed in a vague fantasy. It seems they accepted the dragon's condition as good.

Dragon Hat reaches out to Katarina.

“Good work yesterday. And I'm sorry, can you get me some water? ”

“Please wait a moment. ”

A quick, stuffy Katarina leaves to get her water kettle and cup. Yongho turned his gaze on Eligos.

“How long have I been out? ”

“You've been lying on your back for a day. ”

“Somehow my back hurt. ”

The slightly frustrated dragon stretches its shoulders slightly. Katarina, who has just returned, gives the dragon a glass of water.

“Here, Lord. ”

“Yes."

After passing the water through the esophagus, I finally felt alive. The dragon, who emptied his cup in a heartbeat, closes his eyes once and asks.

“What happened after the battle? ”

“The four Cobalts that survived were locked up in prison. The remains of the Sapling Horses are currently being stored in an empty room. Oh, and I've got all the gear he had. ”

The dragon glints at Eligos' answer.

“You're keeping it? Corpse?”

No, why would they keep a body? Do you really think if we leave the body in the Horse Market, it'll turn into a zombie or a skeleton?

‘Oh, so it's good... because it's free troops?' ’

Eligos gives up his delusions of dragon hoes. He was very serious.

“I heard you collected essences, but you still have quite a bit of magical power in your body. There are no improvements in the dungeon at the moment... but if you build the Magic Way later, you'll be able to draw magic from the corpse. ”

It was the rigorous and serious attitude of Eligos from start to finish. It was almost like I was willing to eat up to the last feather of the enemy.

“Uh-huh. ”

But pulling magic out of a corpse.

It was true that I was reluctant, but Dragon has decided to endure it. It was not a dungeon full enough to say that, and maybe this was a ‘natural thing’ in the horse system.

Moreover, Eligos' words are not yet finished.

“And a lot of high-end improvements... but if you build your own magic facility later, you can recycle the bodies of your enemies into zombies and skeletons." ”

I didn't think it was real.

Yongho glances at humanitarian perspectives and maintains his humanity for a few moments to enlarge his troops with the corpses of his enemies.

It was a facility that couldn't be built yet. It was a matter to consider later.

“What about the equipment you brought to the Horsemen? ”

“The cloak and hammer are of good quality. The cloak is enchanted by maintaining the temperature, and the hammer is enchanted by a simple reinforcement spell, so it's very hard. ”

“Anything else? ”

“I took all the money I had. I don't know if I can get another 2-star minister. ”

Eligos grins slightly.

Dragon Hoe smiled maliciously again, asking.

“What's the damage here? ”

“All the servants are safe. It's all thanks to you that you were able to win so neatly. ”

[This battle has increased the loyalty and respect of the servants.]

As soon as Eligos finishes speaking, the spirit of the dungeon softly spoke. The appeal of the soul of the dungeon as well as the servants seemed to be greatly elevated by this battle.

‘Well, I can tell by the look on your face. ’

Now, Katarina, who seems to have given up a cool one, and the dragon, who has always looked at Eligos in succession, takes a deep breath and closes his eyes. I circulated my magic.

It may be because there was so little magical power that I originally possessed, but the magical power increased noticeably. I felt almost twice the amount of magical power flowing through my body.

‘This is the result of integer absorption. ’

The dragon, who was exhilarated by the increased power, took another deep breath. It was because I remembered a fact that I had not thought about, and perhaps I had ignored it as part of my life.

‘I'm not strangely fine. ’

The Horsemen killed one man. But I didn't feel guilty to do this.

‘Cause I wanted to live. He tried to kill me. ’

Yongho told himself. And I consciously cleared my mind. It was as long as it wasn't a meaningless butcher. First, I decided to stand up for that kind of line.

After finishing the Magic Cycle, the dragon opens its eyes. Katarina and Eligos clap their mouths and look at themselves. The silence was stubborn so that I could concentrate.

Yongho showed his will in action again. The green naturalization blooms from the dragon's eyes.

[Name: Cheon Yong-ho (South)]

[Race: Half-man - Demon King]

[Main Attribute: Flame/Darkness]

[Evolution Skills: 50/100]

[Strength Specialty Level 0 | (1.5)]

[Health Specialty Level 0 | (2)]

[Magic Specialty Level 0 | (2)]

[Charm Specialty Level 0 | (1.5)]

[Agility Lv. 0 | (1)]

[Skill Specialty Level 0 | (2)]

[Seven Sins | Greed]

The number of stars in Yongho's evolutionary route is very slight, but up. The seven great sins, whose name had not been revealed, also revealed the name greed.

"Is it the effect of essence absorption? ’

Before, I could see things that were invisible. The same was true of the 'level’ attached to each specialization.

Dragon has seen Katarina this time.

[Name: Katarina (Female)]

[Race: Half Circubus/Half Dark Elf]

[Main Attribute: Wind/Darkness | Additional Attribute: Lightning/Water/Earth]

[Main Faction: Circubus - Charm/Magic | Dark Elves - Agility/Skill]

[Evolution Skills: 25/100]

[Circus: Charm Specialty Level 0 | (3)]

[Dark Elf: Fastness Lv. 2 | (3.5)]

[Hybrid Level 0 | (3.5)]

[Circus: Magic Specialty Level 0 | (3.5)]

[Dark Elf: Skill Level 1 | (3)]

Yongho changed a lot more than himself. The most noticeable change was that agility specialization was labeled with a value of 'Level 2'.

‘Because you only ordered evolution once... You mean it was a level 1? ’

Then I understood that skill level 1 was attached to it. Katarina specialized in dagger fighting with quick movements.

‘The number of stars has changed a bit. Has the evolutionary potential for agility and other abilities changed bit by bit because you specialized in agility? ’

With a reasonable change, Yongho nodded his head slightly upward. I made a smile on two new boxes of light that had never existed before.

[Shadow Elf]

[Circus]

The ‘Ascendance’ route for Katarina, a half-dark elf and half-circular.

I couldn't decide. It was an upgrade after the next evolution, but before that, we needed to learn more about each.

The dragon, who had broken the power of evolution, lowered his head lightly and faced Eligos again.

“You said the heart of the dungeon gets stronger in proportion to my strength, right? ”

“Yes, it is. Not only that, but also slave workers like me and Katarina are influenced by your growth. ”

“Indeed.”

The relationship between domestic owners and enslaved servicemen cannot be explained by the general principal relationship. It was a much more direct and close relationship. If Gaju was the head, the servant was the hands and feet under the command of his head.

“What have you learned from the Cobalts? ”

Eligos replies, waiting for the dragon's question.

“They're cowardly and cowardly, so they say things as soon as their leader dies, but they can't be completely trusted. So... why don't you build the torture chamber after the prison? ”

“Torture room?”

“Yes, it's used to punish veterans, but it's also needed to interrogate prisoners." If you build it right next to the prison, it will be very effective. because we can watch prisoners in prison being tortured alive. ”

Eligos shines his eyes as if they were really cool.

It was the same the last time I spoke of the prison, but somehow Eligos is strangely lively every time I bring up this topic.

Dragon has closed his eyes for a moment. I thought of Katarina, who was being tortured while crying from Eligos.

‘No, it's too dangerous. ’

I felt much more emotionally stable by switching my tortured target from Katarina to Skeleton.

Prison and torture chamber.

The prison was already built, but the torture chamber would also be needed if the battle would continue in the future.

Yongho asked Katarina this time after postponing her decision on the construction.

“The one who broke in this time, to be honest, to what degree? ”

“I don't mean to disparage the Lord's victory.... ”

Katarina cautiously blurs her words. The answer was practically the same.

“He's not that strong. Well, that's why you're in such a hurry. ”

It was clear that he was quite familiar with fighting. Otherwise, the predatory gaze was not explained.

However, he must be quite weak among those who seek the dungeons of House Mamon.

Mamon is the first to attack among the Chicken Racers, waiting for the dungeon's shields to weaken.

“Looks like this is the forefront of the sharp rush. ”

The small mumbling dragon frowns. I fell asleep right after the battle and just woke up, but I didn't have much time. I had to decide how to prepare for the next enemy attack.

‘In a big way, it's one of two things. ’

One. Evolve the servants.

Two. Hold off on the evolution of the servants and use their magical powers to reinforce the dungeon.

It was a choice with pros and cons for both.

Evolving veterans allowed troops to quantify. However, the current dungeon structure, which can be broken through just by running in a straight line, was too unsettling.

It was good from a long-term perspective to reinforce the dungeon facilities. I could not raise the power right away, but it was impossible to evolve the original ministers at one time.

In the end, you have to do both.

But now I had to decide on a priority.

Yongho turns between Katarina and Eligos. I made a decision after a short but deep concern.
