Taming Master

* * *

- Khhhhhhh!

A narrow, long maze.

A vast volcanic zone at the end.

A giant dragon with a fluttering lava spread its wings and roared at Ian and Lemir.

It's been a long time since I've seen anyone else here.

And Ian's eyes met his face.

‘Rava Dragon... ’

I finally encountered the existence that I had only seen in the item information window of the Lava set item, so my regrets were new.

- Killing a lava dragon crouching somewhere in the lava zone wouldn't be impossible if you could gather all the lava equipment.

And one more thing.

Ian had a different feeling about the Rava Dragon than the bosses had ever felt.

So far, if Lava Guardians have felt like 'Guardians’, mechanically blocking the Gateway Challenger, he felt an absolute atmosphere.

I felt curiosity and relaxation rather than hostility when I looked down at Ian and Lemir.

The two of them had to be more nervous.

He must have been the end king of the Lava Zone.

“700 seconds remaining.... We got about 12 minutes left? ”

“I think so. I've spent too much time searching for the maze. ”

The fifth Gateway to Rava Dragon.

The time given at this gate was 33 minutes and 20 seconds.

Due to the nature of the map 'maze’, it was given much longer time than other gateways.

But Ian and Remir spent almost 20 minutes searching for the maze.

Now, in a little over 10 minutes, we have to defeat that monster.

‘I wanted to capture Rava Dragon.... Has the capture crossed the water since you've appeared as the boss? ’

Seeing the magnificence of the colossal lava dragon, Ian relished his sorrow.

Nothing is quite like this, but monsters that appear as normal bosses in Kailan's worldview are set to be impossible to capture.

“Hmm……. ”

But in doing so, I didn't have time to mourn it.

Killing him and getting a fifth Lava Gear was just as helpful as tasting lava dragons.

“Patterns first. You know, Sis? ”

“Don't worry! ”

Remir, who then wondered, began casting various protective spells.

Whoo-hoo-hoo-hoo!

Ian hurled a black spear at the Rava Dragon looking down at them in a straightforward position.

Purple-fucking-!

Ian managed to get to the dumb one's geography in an instant because he was so big.

-Disposed fatal damage to Lava Dragon, the Guardian of Lava!

- The unique ability of the ‘Rava Dragon’, the 'Rava Skin’ is triggered.

- Rava Dragon's health has been reduced by 1398.

After seeing the system message, Ian was forced to look ridiculous.

"What, why is Dil the only one in here? ’

He used weakness detection to attack the exact weaknesses, and clearly triggered a ‘critical hit’, but with a minimal (?) The numbers caught my attention.

"What's a dirty Passive Rava Skin and not a Dragon Skin?" ’

To find out the exact specification of the boss' unique abilities, you risk and headline several times (?).

In order to penetrate the Passive Rava Skin, we need to figure out what kind of attack we need to make, and how to do it.

- You're a rat.

Lava Dragon is starting to look young, watching Ian swiftly slap his side and leave.

At that time, one question suddenly crossed Ian's mind.

"Wait, this guy... He's not the boss after all, is he? ’

A lava dragon with an irresistible quality compared to a heady dungeon boss.

But apart from that, his job title (?) was just a gatekeeper, and if so, we can naturally have one more doubt.

Suspicion that we might be able to capture him.) or Ian's naivety.

‘Yeah, let's give it a try. It's not worth it. ’

Kuang -!

Ian, who quickly dodged the giant tail of the Rava Dragon, began swarming back towards him.

It was because you had to get within a certain distance to activate the 'Capture’ skill.

And after a while, when the flames of lava started to boil in his mouth....

Curr-!

Ian quickly moves his new body to the rear of the man with the reverse motion to eject the Bress.

Since I have seen so many dragon breeds, I was able to see patterns just by the slightest movement.

‘Now……! ’

Ian, who had gone back behind the Rava Dragon, reached for his back.

Then a low voice starter word rang out from Ian's mouth.

“Capture……! ”

It may seem obvious, but there was zero chance Ian could succeed in capturing him this time.

The only thing Ian wants to confirm is the system message that will come to mind with the capture attempt.

Whoo-hoo!

The white light from Ian's hand shot out towards the dragon's back, and was scattered into the air before it even reached the pole.

And in Ian's eyes, I remembered a line of messages that I had been waiting for.

- Capture failed.

* * *

Gulp.

Temples on the planning team that look at the screen in extreme tension, like the fighters on the battlefield who are facing death.

Now, the monitoring room of the planning team had a much larger group of people than 30 minutes ago.

Depending on the outcome of this live broadcast today, not only the first and third teams, but almost all of the remaining members of the planning team were gathered without leaving work, as well as the number of overtime for the next month.

Ian and Remir met the lava dragon on the fifth trial.

Cold sweat begins to flow from the foreheads of the planning team members looking at the two rankers.

“Is it true that the Magister of the Heart was caught in a wand? ”

“I told you. I just saw it with my own eyes. ”

“I heard that when I was experimenting in the third team, I did almost 10Tri.... ”

“I barely got to the 16th Triangle, exactly. ”

“Specs?”

“Of course, I tried the top ranker average specs. ”

“Ha……. What is it? Is Ian Speck about three times the top rankers? ”

“Gnob, this is more of a physical difference than a spec difference. ”

“Well……. QA (Quality Assurance) Team Physical is good, but compared to rankers, it will be childish. ”

“Still. I know Jae Hoon from QA team or Seung Yun is almost a ranker-grade physical...... ”

“It's Ian on top of the ranker. I think it's a different concept. ”

Employees could talk in small voices, but could never take their eyes off the screen.

It was because he was immersed in the laba dragon, struggling against the devil Ian.

More eager to cheer on employees than they cheered on a sporting event a day ago!

“Yes! Good job casting, Rava Dragon! ”

“Oh, why can't you avoid that? I could have cut Ian off if I'd just hit him with the tail! ”

“What if we're already at 20% health? You have to stop Ian for 10 rounds. ”

“No, I don't want 10 rounds. Let's stop him for just seven rounds, Ravana. ”

And Nazi Chan and Kim Hye-hwan, who heard the voices of the employees, had to feel the same way for now.

“You said I made it hard for you, Meiji. ”

“I did……. ”

“Can I trust a dragon? ”

“ ……. ”

“Please answer me, Team Leader……. ”

“ ……. ”

“I really need to take a vacation next month. ”

“The Hidden Stage will be jammed, sir. ”

“Phew……. ”

“Let's wait and see. ”

“ ……. ”

Looking at Ian struggling with the dragon, Najchan swallowed his brooding voice.

‘When did Ian Speck get up here without seeing him? ’

I thought Ian was going to catch a dragon from the beginning, but he thought that at least nine out of ten chances would have to be spent.

‘From Meiji to the 6th Tri. I thought you were going to rub a 9-10 Tri on a dragon... ’

Nazi Chan gave Ian permission (?) I wanted to reward up to 5 sets of lava.

That was a huge reward at this point, but I still think Ian deserves it.

‘Yes. Even Ian, Hidden Stage, is not going to happen. It's never a stage that was built to break with three or four trials……. ’

Najchan worked hard on these and other scenarios in his head, focusing on Ian's daily routine.

And about 10 minutes after that,

- Caaaaaaa!

“Whoa!”

“I finally did it! ”

“First win! ”

Screams erupted from the monitoring room like a goal in a soccer game.

The Rava Dragon was close to stopping Ian and Lemir.

Of course, we didn't kill them both, but we managed to reduce their challenges by lasting 12 minutes.

“Wow, I was so nervous that I thought I was going to catch the lava dragon in a wand. ”

“Phew, but what's the point of stopping it once? The next trial is a sure thing. ”

“Yes, it is. You've lost 70 percent of your health in the first place, so you'll be sure to clear your next trial. ”

“Oh, I have to get ready for the night shift. ”

“No, wait a minute. Since the dragon has lost two challenges, there are only four challenges left for both of you on the Hidden Stage. ”

“Hmm……. ”

The blackened screen then began to illuminate the challenge waiting room again.

Ian and Remir again appear in the center of the screen.

* * *

“A little sad, but I think it was the best, right? ”

“I know. He was a tough one. ”

“Can we catch it in this trial? ”

“We have to catch it somehow. Now that we know the pattern in advance, we have enough chances. ”

“That's right. ”

After a quick maintenance in the waiting room, Remir and Ian immediately started the challenge again.

Again, the challenge of the ’Armor' pattern was lost, so Rob was chosen by the two of you.

Rob was the last piece of equipment the two of us could share, so there was no other choice.

Is it the same maze map? I hope it's about getting through the map fast... ’

Ian and Remir, who had never missed the gate before, were unaware that the damage would accumulate from the boss.

So I squeezed out the milk and quickly broke through the gate, and as soon as I could, I recovered the lava dragon.

Of course, after checking the life gauge of the Ravadra Dragon again, I was embarrassed.

“She, why is it raining like that from the start? ”

“I think I'm just like him. ”

“Oh, honey! ”

Ian and Remir were able to instantly render his life force lethal.

With more than five minutes to go, I cut his life force to the ground.

"Great! Maybe we can really capture it." ’

And for the rest of his time, Ian tried to capture him like crazy.

“Capture!”

“Heave-ho!”

“Get him! ”

But five minutes had gone by quickly, and Ian couldn't catch him.

“Let him go, Ian. ”

“ ……. ”

“I'm sure we'll get another chance. ”

“Ugh... ”

As long as I knew that the boss' damage was accumulating, I didn't even think about throwing in one challenge.

But if you don't take this chance, you only get four chances left.

The problem was that there was no guarantee that the capture would succeed.

Moreover, the challenge was one part each of the lava equipment.

The lava dragon was a choice no matter how eager it got.

“Yes. I'll let you go today, asshole. ”

-Kaaaaaaaaah!

“But next time I see you, never! I'm gonna get you. That's how you know. ”

- Kiyaaak! Get out of here, you little prick!

When exactly 30 seconds until gate limit is reached.

Kuang -!

Ian and Remir finally got rid of him.

- You destroyed the Magic Source of Lava!

- You have successfully breached the 'Magic Gateway of Lava'!

- You won the 'Lava Robe (Legendary) (Superior)’ item.

I don't want to see him again!

The lava dragon disappears into the lava as Ian's eyes meet.

Unfortunately, the meeting of Ian and the Rava Dragon was destined to happen again not far from now.
