The dragon king lost all the scales he had in his fight with Baek Hyun. The attack that Baek Hyun showed at the end was as powerful as she had ever been in her entire life.

I could only cite the powerful side. Given that it was inevitable, it was the best of the attacks.

I almost died. If I hadn't gone back to the body in a hurry, I would have died, and even if I had done so, I would have lost all the scales I had.

But the roots remain.

The Dragon Root is the history of life. The scales become stronger according to the years of the dragon and the experience it has had. The battle with Baek Hyun caused the dragon king to lose all the scales he had, but the fight resulted in a new, stronger scale.

For a few months, King Dragon was leaving the lyrics. She was arrogant, but not foolish. A place called Yongsong was exposed, and he lost his scales and became weak. It bothers me if the enemies who are after her come and attack this time. Of course, even if the Dragon King had no scales, he would not have fallen to the apostles, but where would he have to fight with unfavorable conditions?

I spent several months in a new residence where I left the lyrics and settled. The scales that were lost arose anew. But the Dragon King was not satisfied with it. Strong scales are nothing more than a defensive means.

An attack at that time. If you go through it again, you won't be hit like last time, but the power of the attack wasn't enough to impress. During the scaly hour, King Dragon looks back at himself. Living time. Experience. A lot of fights. Nearly dying experiences. Attacks that could have killed me.

I'd rather.

A gapless scale covers the dragon king's body. The scales are all up. I also saw the amusement of my mind. Although he lost the same powerful creed and rapidity as before, King Dragon was convinced that this was his peak.

“I don't think he's dead. ”

Scales that cover the body disappear. The dragon king murmurs, touching the center of his chest with his fingertips. It is invisible to the eye, but it has the roots of a scallop underneath its porous skin.

King Dragon gave Baek Hyun a scale of roots as a means of affection and salutation. The Scale once again protects White Hyun from the deadly attacks of other enemies, not the Dragon King.

King Dragon doesn't know who Baek Hyun fought with. However, he knew that the scales he had handed over were almost used. If the enemy attack had been a little stronger, the scale would have been triggered to protect the life of Baek Hyun.

Who is it?

The dragon king frowns with his fists down. King Dragon knew best how strong Baek Hyun was. There are no opponents among humans and apostles who can threaten Baek Hyun. If so, is it the monarch who drove him? Or fallen rapids led by an inverted angel. Well, maybe...

"Gummuhee?"

She's qualified and overflowing. But why? It is for no reason convincing, and the Dragon King kicks his tongue and raises his body. As far as King Dragon is concerned, there was no reason why Gummuhee and Baek Hyun would try to kill each other.

If gummu-hee kills Baek Hyun.

The dragon king walked slowly through the corridor leading from the deep cave to the outside. I didn't want to imagine. If Baek Hyun had to die, that death had to be done by King Dragon himself. She didn't want Baek Hyun to die in the hands of another rapid.

If gummu-hee kills Baek Hyun.

‘What kind of emotion do you feel? ’

Maybe he's trying to kill Gummuhee.

Even though it wasn't easy, the look on King Dragon's face was grave.

[Almost there.]

The sewing doll said in a voice full of excitement. It took me a long time. In the meantime, there have been many such incidents. But now that I had a clear goal, I couldn't delay the journey any longer.

Through a fairly large area of residence, Baek Hyun's group placed the Black Rose Queen's territory before their eyes. Shanaak, who placed a sewing doll on his shoulder, continued to head forward without resting on the bocham of the sewing doll, followed by Sarah and Baek Hyun.

Seong-colony didn't come. He hadn't been to Abyss for quite some time, so he lost his sense of combat, and that's why he didn't come on the journey. Even so, a colony that deals with a special spirit that looks like Hossein is much stronger than other hunters with a much higher level. Even so, Hunter, it's still human.

Seo Min-hyun didn't want to catch Baek Hyun's ankle.

“Is there anything you need to be careful about? ”

Baek Hyun asked, turning over Robe's hood. Although blindfolded and spectacular, Baek Hyun is known to have been injured in the fight against gumihui in the outside world. Thanks to him, he was using artifacts used in Colombia, making a completely different face from the original.

[Mmm, mmm.... you'd better be polite, wouldn't you? But it was once called the King of Cannabis.]

“I'm good at it. ”

[... I don't think so. Well, even if you act cheap, the Black Rose won't be mad at you. I'm with you. I wanted to meet you. I invited you.]

Rather, it was Sarah who needed to be careful. Baek Hyun stares at Sarah, who is following her with a fat face.

The closer she gets to the realm of the Black Rose, her face slowly decays. It was a very annoying reason, the Black Rose Queen. She was a woman, even if she heard of it, and Baek Hyun sent Lovecall from the beginning to Abyss. There was a woman in the crowd, wanting to disrupt the existence around her, and it couldn't have been good to add another petty competitor.

[So you have to stamp it first.]

In Sarah's head, Aphras kicked her tongue and said, Sarah only squeezed out her lips and did not refute. It's not easy to say, but it takes a lot of courage to fulfill it with action.

“By the way, where are you? ”

Baek Hyun grumbles at Shanak's back. They had been riding rough mountains for a long time. It's a place full of monsters, but it doesn't scare even the worst monsters out of their heads.

No matter how hard Sansa is, three don't sweat a drop. I just felt frustrated about how long I had to climb this mountain.

[Umm... I heard the location is this way.]

The sewing doll mutters. The original sanctuary is not the exact coordinates. Most people use one area as a sanctuary, and if they enter it, they can open the door to the sanctuary. The temple of the serpent of regeneration or the sanctuary of Pure St.

If there really is a sanctuary of the Black Rose Queen on this mountain. The door to the sanctuary had to appear, according to the wishes of the Black Rose Queen, without the need for a bothersome search.

“Isn't there something wrong? ”

[...] No, it can't be.]

He said so and denied it, but it was not a voice of great certainty. She came down from the shoulders of Shanak and flew herself. Whether my heart was in a hurry or not, I was fast.

[... over there.]

After a long time, the movement stopped. The sewing doll stands on a woodcutter, stretching out its arms and pointing to the front.

That was a strange sight. Where the tall trees and bushes were scattered, only one corner was dry. Baek Hyun looks at it and nods. I looked back with relief. But I didn't know more. Abyss was originally full of chaos, but there was a strangely violent intertwined flow.

“You're dying dry. ”

Shanak murmurs. The sewing doll pauses and flies over the thirsty bush. Then the flow seen in the heart became more violent. The flow has changed without any gaps to dry. Violent, unpaired flow splits. It was not a change that could only be captured with peace of mind. In fact, the space was split.

The sewing doll was not embarrassed. She steps back a little and looks at the cracked space. There was something beyond that. She glances at it for a moment and looks back at Baek Hyun.

[Looks like you came to the right place.]

Baek Hyun nods and looks back.

“Are you coming with me? ”

“Why don't you ask him something natural? ”

Sarah asks again. Baek Hyun smiles bitterly and knocks her lips with her fingers.

“You can't be too cheap, because you don't know what it's like. Okay?”

“What the hell are you looking at people for? ”

Sarah grumbles with her lips. As Sarah approaches, Baek Hyun reaches out and grabs her wrist. Sarah glances at Baek Hyun in astonishment.

“I don't know what's gonna happen, so stay by my side. ”

“Uh-uh... uh-uh. ”

I panicked by the sudden skin shedding. Jealousy caused the boiling of the bubbles to cool down. Sarah leans down with a red face and walks with Baek Hyun.

[Jealous youth.]

The sewing doll mutters as she sees it. She glanced at Shanak with a curious expectation, but she only looked at the open space with a dull face. The sewing doll sighed and went forward first.

[I'll go in first.]

Beyond the space, the figure of the sewing doll disappeared. After that, the rest of the group went that way.

This is already the fourth time to enter the sanctuary of the New Testament.

Pure Saint's Paradise. Iron Blood Bow of the Ghost. Snake's Lair of Regeneration.

All three sanctuaries had different forms, but they had something in common. It symbolizes fastness, and there's a lot of pride in life. It seems spacious.

But the realm of the Black Rose is clear.

“... is that it? ”

It's a strange night.

It's dark, but it looks good. The sky was black, but not dark. It seemed to be painted in a different color on a black-filled background. Baek Hyun looks at the ‘castle’ in front of him with a horrible look in his eyes.

The castle barely retained its original form. There was no grandeur at all. The high castle towers were all shattered. It didn't seem to have been destroyed by someone, it seemed to have collapsed spontaneously because it was out of control.

The same is true of the walls. There are bricks that fall out of the hole, so I think a few taps will make me feel better. The gate that must be solid was smashed.

Decisively. 'This space was narrow. ’

One castle and a little extra space. That was all the size this sanctuary had. The Iron Blood Bow of the Ghost, which had been ignored as a trivial thing by the gods, would be a few dozen times wider than this territory.

[...]

The nightmare maker said nothing. She stands in the air and looks at the castle. She could see without much thought what state this sanctuary was in.

Sanctuary represents the power of rapidity. The stronger the rapids, the greater the sanctuary, and the weaker the rapids, the more humble the sanctuary. Especially that castle. The most beautiful black rose queen in the world, Rose Dum, has become so miserable!

“I'm sorry I couldn't get out of the yard. ”

It was beyond the broken glottis that the voice was heard.

A wolf slowly walks outside the gate. I've never seen it myself, but Baek Hyun knew the wolf. Soft, because the spirit showed it. One of the clans owned by the Black Rose Queen. The armor said the wolf was a 'lightning dog'.

However, the appearance of the dog was not the same as that shown by the spirit. It was still about half the size, but it was only half the size, and the fur seemed to be easily cut and pulled out. At least his eyes were solid, but his dog must have been so weak that it was not as weak as it used to be.

[... what happened? No, more than that. Where's the Black Rose Queen?]

The sewing doll looked at the dog and asked. The dog tightens its head deeply to the nightmare maker inside of the doll.

“The Queen is in her bedroom. You said you wanted to come out of the courtyard yourself... but the Queen is not even easy to move. ”

[Oh my God.]

The sewing doll shook his body in the air.
