“I love you, sir. What can I help you with?"

There was an entire white space with a singular gaze.

The red-haired citrus was as beautiful as ever.

Sitting in a white, old-fashioned chair, she greets Dragon Ho and encourages her to sit with a light gesture. One day, a chair appeared behind the dragon's back.

Now that it was familiar, Dragon was not embarrassed, but sat across from Citri. Citri opened her lips like a surprise again.

“You've gotten stronger.”

I didn't notice any visible changes like the number of horns.

Dragon Hoe smiled instead of answering specifically, and Citri narrowed her eyes in response to such dragon hoes. Somehow I had a meaningful smile.

The dragon has become stronger.

You've taken the essence of Land Worm and Junkeras, as well as the magical power of warp since the battle with Forest. It was a short time, but it was a good thing that the change in power was so different.

I couldn't even compare it to when I first met Citri. And that remarkable growth kept spreading a smile on Citri's face.

Citri corrects the seated position. He switched legs that were gracefully twisted, and even though he was wearing a very long skirt, the dragon glanced at those citric legs reflectively. Citri shudders.

“I see you've been to a speakeasy... Have you met Ofelia well? ”

Specific nominations contained many things. Dragon Hoe raises his elbow to the armrest of the chair. I bent my chin naturally and looked at Citri.

“You knew. ”

Instead of denial, Citri nods gracefully.

“But that was it. What would have happened after that... I can only imagine. ”

Citri knew that the owner of the tavern was Ophelia, a former servant of the Mamon family.

Yongho remembered what Citri said about learning to get information elsewhere.

Can we also see that we've led the meeting itself? ’

The dragon shakes its head. It wasn't because I didn't hate the idea that Citri was controlling him.

It was Dragon Ho himself who decided to visit the tavern and chose that time.

Citri was still at peace. Yongho felt the urge to stir up such tranquility in Citri, but it was unnecessary. He said, taking off his crooked jaw.

“Nice meeting you. He was a very capable friend. ”

“Her father, Endellion, was one of the most capable men in the service of Kaiwan. The Red Daemon itself is a fairly obedient battle breed. ”

It was a passable word, but there was a word that focused on the dragon's attention.

Citri drops the information rather than pushing and pulling.

“The red daemon is a fairly famous battle breed within the marketplace. They're not born strong like dragons, suras, or arc daemons, but they're incredibly mature. The red daemon is extremely powerful. A mere mortar warfare alone defeats the ultimate transfused dragon - a full-grown ancient dragon. But this is the story of the time we grew up. Red daemons that don't grow properly are worse than Orcs, not Ogres. ”

I couldn't help but notice Eligos' face in the last words.

“Red daemons are strong in battle. You don't do magic very often. Would you prefer to just magically strengthen your body and hit your enemies? And you're efficient. Red daemons that have mastered a little psychic enchantment, like Ofelia, are really rare. It's probably a magic I've worked so hard for. ”

It was a kind explanation, and Yongho naturally agreed. Both Eligos and Ophelia had more potential for physical abilities than for magical power.

‘Even the ancient dragons were subdued with mortal combat……. ’

I didn't know much about the Horsemen of the Magic System, but there was a strength in my mind that even the word 'dragon’ came to mind.

I was curious. Citri told me straight away this time.

“An example of a red daemon that has grown to its extreme strength... is Orobas, one of the five directors of the Dungeon Chamber for which I belong. He is also one of the Demon Prince of the Magic world, and he is truly an enormous owner of physical abilities. Perhaps‘ power ’would not defeat him not only in the dungeon hall, but also in the whole market. ”

Interesting words poured down.

Five directors, ultimate super-strength, Damon Prince.

I remembered the word "extraterrestrial." It was an indirect feeling of a new strength that transcended the 'strength’ that is currently in front of me.

I was able to be strong there. I could have gone further.

“So is the Demon King. ”

Citri suddenly said. Her elongated lashes gently descend along the eyelids.

“The Demon King also grows. The weakest of the Demon Kings might be compared to Goblins, not Orcs. But the most powerful Demon King… literally burns heaven and earth at once and evaporates the sea. Defeated dozens of them alone, not just one of the ancient dragons. There's nothing to worry about when tens of thousands of troops arrive. I'm just going to put my head on the floor as soon as I look at it. ”

Familiar words provoked the dragon's ears. Yongho could feel that Citri was reminded of someone in his mind.

“There are limits to the Demon King's power. But it's possible to grow. Break the wall and a new wall will be waiting for you, but only if you break through the wall. There is no end to that growth, as long as there is a will to progress. But once you stop, if you lose that will... you'll never be trapped within your own limits again. ”

Foras was the Frozen Demon.

Did his power stop at just sparking a cold? Could it have been an ability that could not be further advanced?

Jungerus' name was the Demon King of Domination.

He was able to paralyze his opponent or force a particular movement. However, if it was only that, the nickname "domination" was unfortunate. I could definitely go further. I was able to exert a stronger ability.

But neither Forest nor Yunkeras grew any more. They stagnated.

There must have been limits to the power of evolution.

It was one of the limitations of being able to evolve only as a minister.

Perhaps there are limits to the number of warriors that can evolve.

But that was only the current limit.

Yongho closes his eyes a little longer than usual. I still faced Citri looking at me with an unchanging eye.

It was definitely not a normal relationship.

It was different from the customer and the merchant who responded to it

Citri wanted Yongho's own growth. It wasn't enough to lead her hand, but the advice and advice she passed every time she met helped Yongho herself a lot.

Why is that?

Maybe it's more intimate than just being a patron of the Mamon family.

Like Ofelia, Citri was not the Twelve Servants - the Servants of Mamon - who had served alongside Mamon in the past.

“No, it's not. I always told you, he's just a dungeon merchant. So that's all you need to think about. ”

Citri tightly said as if she was digging into the dragon's insides with a smile.

The dragon felt an invisible wall. And I was convinced.

Yong-ho himself said he would never trust Citri in the first place.

I thought Citri was Mamon's servant - I wanted to rely on her.

It wasn't good. The relationship was enough.

“Looks like you brought a lot of stuff. What will you buy this time? I'm shaking my head. ”

Citri spoke like a merchant, and Yongho recalled the reason for accessing the dungeon's virtual space.

The encounter with Citri was a sideshow.

“I have so much I want to buy. ”

“Let me help you today. ”

Citri, who rose from her seat, pulled out a large series of books like an invisible bookshelf in the air. It was physically impossible, but it was originally a virtual space, and Citri was a powerful horseman.

“Is that what you want too? Or armor? Or other things? ”

The catalogues that left Citri's hands lay side by side in front of the dragon. Yongho looked at Citri instead of catalogs and replied.

“All three. ”

“I'm sure you'll do a lot for me today. It was no secret, but it was good work. ”

“Are you still insisting that it's not personal? ”

“It really isn't. ”

Yongho just laughed now. I opened the catalog.

&

Unscheduled market visits produced impulse purchases.

That's why Yongho had a shopping plan in place before accessing virtual space.

The Iron Golems and Skeleton Workers are the only ones you can buy.

Iron Golems were for combat, and skeleton workers were paradoxically not for combat.

Yongho envisioned an elite squad of skeletons to take command of the Skull.

The synergy of the training ground would have been tremendous, if only for the undead's ability and perseverance to build evolutionary skills, so long as they were able to do simple repetitive work without tiredness.

‘Cause we're going to raise Desknight. ’

I make knights all the time.

An elite undead squad of Death Knights and Reaches.

Of course, it would have been a distant future, but it was definitely something worth investing in.

‘Let's start with six, including skulls. What's the team's name? Skull squad? The rest of the skeletons call it something like Skull 2 or Skull 3. ’

Three Iron Golems and five Skeleton Workers.

Once they decided to purchase all eight of them, the rest were materials needed for the new dungeon facilities, supplies, and materials for manufacturing at the basic workshop.

Yongho entered Citri's advice and put all of his original purchasing plans into action.

But something unexpected happened at the end. It was an incredibly powerful impulse buying event.

[4-Star Veteran Catalog]

Citri smiled and showed the cover, and Dragon realized that Citri was a merchant for a long time.

“Just watch. ”

“Is that for real? ”

“Oh, you know. ”

Can I just watch?

The dragon reached out, counting the remaining budget. You open the first chapter of the catalog as if you were caught in the Devil's Temptation.

&

“I love you, sir. I love you so, so much. ”

A beautiful elven spirit with an impressive waist endured the thought of Katarina's face and sensual waist.

Troll Warriors who look strong by looking at their faces were able to overcome the thought of Eligos and Ophelia.

Skeleton Knight felt like she could look at Skull's evolution and not feel the need to buy it.

But there was a ministry that put the will of this dragon to the test.

Oh, cool. ’

Nightmare.

A high-ranking ghost ghost phantom steed.

It was really big and beautiful. The basic form was words, but the body and impression were truly intense. There could not have been a word that matched the word "magic."

An eye that blooms with a white mane and a green naturalisation, as opposed to the naked body of Zachman.

I have Salami! ’

There is a salami that will evolve into a magnificent flower. So I can endure it.

No, it was impossible.

How about a Skull that evolved into Skeleton Knight? Or maybe Katarina in the shadows.

The battle did not take place within the dungeon. It was important to secure transportation.

‘This is how much I care about you. ’

Yongho, who somehow created the reason, stated his intention to buy Nightmare, and Citri rewarded him with the most beautiful smile in the world.

We're really done here.

After the urge purchase, Citri brought up a different story instead of saying goodbye when she was unwilling to come and visit at the Wise Man's time.

“If you're going to keep getting stronger... you might want to try the big water for once. ”

“Big water?”

When I didn't know, Citri nodded. I took out a flyer from between my sternum and gave it to Dragon Hoe.

[Dungeon Merchant Auction House]

Dragon Hat raises his head. Citri takes a gentle step back.

“It's going to be more turbulent. If you survive that ordeal, if you become stronger... I'll take you next time. ”

Citri set an old-fashioned example in front of Yongho. I always finished with the same smile.

“I love you, sir. I look forward to seeing you next time. ”

The whole white world was filled with darkness.

The dragon closed its eyes naturally.

‘The Dungeon Merchant Auction House……. ’

Why did Citri describe it as big water?

I lost my mind. When the dragon opened his eyes again, it was Katarina and Eligos' face.
