The Dungeon Struggle of an Earth Dragon!

1. Put the little one on your knees.

I wanted 'myself'.

From the moment he was born into this labyrinth, he wanted an unshakeable 'self', or 'real', who was nobody else or anything.

But it was a fog demon, an act that greatly deviated from his' essence 'for him, a demon that led him astray, confused and off the road, and an aspiration equal to an act of self-injury that made him aware of himself as' fake 'without any help in seeking it.

Still, the thought grows in him day by day.

Thoughts are just solicited and not filled.

Just days of duty-draining intruders and protecting dungeons.

His will doesn't matter there, just days of doing what he's been told.

Now, it's the same as a tool.

It doesn't make sense to be yourself. I can change it for as much as I want.

Can you say it's alive?

Can you say it's 'real'?

He despaired and hated.

Compatriots who scorn their powerless selves for the labyrinth that created them.

And - by contrast, I can't say anything back about my helpless self.

He hated everything that surrounded him.

It was one woman who reached out to him like that.

She gave him a name and an existential significance.

I was happy.

I never thought it would be such a pleasure for someone to need me for the first time.

From there his life changes.

I became close to Black Dragon, who brought her to this dungeon, and also to Slime, who came here as a newcomer, and more of what I could call friends. A conversation was born. I started laughing a lot.

He thanked her.

Regardless, she also realized that her good intentions were actions supported by her intentions.

What she asked for was his power and ability, not his own.

Her interest was poured on the black dragon next to him, not him.

Still good.

After realizing it, he continued to stay beside her.

Thoughts were only solicited but filled.

Because by her, he got an unshakeable 'self'.

Even if it's a thought that started with a fake, it's his own 'real' without a lie or falsehood.

That's why he's - Starpulse First Hierarchy Guardian 'Dream Mist' Joker deceives the world and plays the clown.

It's all for one woman I love...

◇ ◆ ◇ ◆ ◇

The battle against the divine disastrous demon “Imperial Beast” Azil is over and peace has returned to the dungeon.

... is still hard to say, but the fight is over for now.

In each area of the middle tier, Dessant golems and Anne's termites are doing repairs at great speeds. Perhaps in a month, only the shape will manage to return to the original dungeon. We'll fix the traps and the details later.

The families, who were the lords who said Anne and Plum, are now resting in each area because of the fatigue of the fierce fighting.

It was a streak after a streak. Even if the wounds and magic can be healed to some extent with demonic stones, mental fatigue will not escape. I want you to get some rest and nourish your English.

Well, under that circumstance, I say...

"Huh? Can't you go back?

With my explanation, Elibel opens her mouth pompously.

By the way, this is Elibel's lab.

With the "sanctuary tread” out, my size returned to normal, so I came to Elibel's lab using the transfer gates.

"... fumiyu?

And for some reason, on Elibel's lap is Babal, the son of Tenryu Yamu.

Val, the human figure, is only the size of his freshman year, so he fits snugly on Elibel's lap.

"Hmm......"

Why not?

"Whew..."

Bal, I'm stroking your blonde hair so that Elibel licks it around gently.

Val, you are closing your eyes to make yourself comfortable.

What? What? What happened to you?

What the hell happened to me just a dozen minutes before I got here?

"Uh, Elibel, on that knee--"

"It's nothing. Never mind."

'No, but...'

"Never mind."

Oh, yes.

Enough is enough. Let's move on.

Unlike his father Yamu, Val seems harmless.

"What do you mean, you can't go back? You're out of sanctuary trampling."

"Fluffy...... eh"

It's strangely nasty how you stroke it...

Val, your cheek is red.

"Uh, not that way, it's the other me."

"Another...?

"Oh, you can't even try to disarm the possession."

In the battle ahead, I fought my soul apart from the other me.

I used Elibel's "sanctuary treasure vajra," and was forced to grow into an adult, and the other I rode into a previously built dragon molded golem and took in the thunderbolt of the brave Kadias to fight Azil.

But then the problem happened.

I can't go back.

The other one said he couldn't do it, even if I tried to disarm him of possession.

"I have no idea what the hell is going on."

"Hmm...... I see"

By the way, the other me, I'm not here right now.

Standing by at the training ground.

Anyway, he was forcing his body to grow up with "sanctuary trespassing," because unlike me, he's a giant in defo.

I can't move freely through the dungeon.

Well, if you need anything, you can have a conversation over an ideological call. Is there any freedom?

"I mean, the“ soul ”itself must have been completely separated..."

While stroking Val, Elibel sets out her own thoughts.

"You said that fucking bitch before. You have two souls, and they're mixed together."

"Oh."

You said that.

I lived as a bad socialite on Earth, me and the soul of the Dragon of Earth, Gibble's true son.

The two of them mixed together, and they said they were born to say I was.

But to be exact, you weren't mixed up at all.

I was in a state where I was covering the soul of the earth dragon, so it just looked like two souls were mixed.... It's a witch's hole.

"... soul by soul. It was a contradiction, and it's not strange."

Elibel manipulates the terminal as she writes up her hair with Bobo.

Then the light of the metastasis gate appeared, and a plain woman from the inside - Totoro Lenaloid.

"E-li-cha!! How dare you nominate me!!

And as it was, he was beaten to the wall about to tease Lupin Dive to Elibel.

There was something around my neck that I shouldn't have rang.

"Hiha!

Oh, Val, you're scared.

Kind of cute.

"Come on... Eli, if this isn't me, it's a pretty nasty system wound..."

With a cockroach ringing his neck, Lenaloid rises as if nothing had happened.

Yeah, you're quitting plain human after all, you plain witch.

"Um, what's up? Suddenly called. I'm still busy with this."

"What's so busy with you? I'm guessing you're a jobless Nettie now."

"Ouch!

Clean hit.

Lena Lloyd took the blow of Kaishin!

"... No, there's a lot to be done to gather information from Azil and recover the Volcanic Line from a thousand years ago."

"Ahhh. So, from your eyes, how does he look now?

"That, thru!? Eli, I think I just said something pretty important!?

"I don't have time to hang out with old people's paranoia."

"Ugh, well, no. What's wrong with you, Earth? Feels like the“ soul "is separating.... And why are you here, Val?

"Huh!?

I keep an eye out for a moment.

"... after all, you know just by looking at it?

"Sort of. As I said before, I can see my eyes as" souls. "As soon as I wore it here, I knew it. Earth, the color of your soul is different than before.... So, why are you here, Val?

Lena Lloyd makes a serious expression after hitting it earlier.

"A boulder, is there a way to cure it?" (Why?)

"If you say you do, you say you don't."

'That's a pretty vague way of putting it...'

"Right. It's not a rare case like this. Oh, but if it's a similar case, maybe Eli knows about it, too?

"Huh?"

Elibel shakes her neck.

"Don't you remember? Look, that's it. That catastrophic cow demon that appeared on the west coast of the Bolhelic kingdom when Eli was still alive"

That's what they say. Elibel hugs Val all the time.

... Do you need a hug?

"Oh, I remember. I was on the beach the other day trying to kill Lia Zheng, who had failed the pageant, and the big bull demon. I'm impressed you didn't die in there after ten bullets of Holy Kings magic."

... Loaded with all kinds of penetration, but let's go through now.

But you're a cow demon...

With that said, Kushasra was also a monster to a stupid big cow.

"The name, I don't know what you said, sure -"

"Li, Ligurd...... was"

"" 'Eh ""

The voice mainly focuses on the gaze of the three of us.

Our gaze focused on ourselves, and the kid shrugged himself for a moment.

"Oh, Valtan, you know what?... Ha, ha" (why)

"Oh, yes...... Besides, what I found out about my dad... Hiccup!

With his back stroked, Baal stretches out his spine.

It's time to stop this...

"Meh, my dad rarely praised me, so I remembered. Eh, he just said," I can't believe you can beat him. I can't even do that. "... Phew."

You're tired of talking so much, Val, you exhale so loudly.

Cute.

"That's cute, that's good, that's good! Oh, my God! Well said, Baltan!" (Why, why)

"Hi-ha, hi-ha. Elibel, hi, no. I don't know..."

Hey, it's time to stop, you perverted sage there.

I pull off Elibel, strip Val (as hard as I can), and put him on top of my head.

At that moment,

"Huh!!! EARTH WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Shura showed up.

Shit, Elibel, it's a ghost shape. I'm so scared.

But we're through because we can't talk ahead.

So, what do you mean? How did Yamu know about the demon Elibel defeated in his lifetime?

"Well, you're an old buddy. You should know that, right?

Listen to Leonaroid as he desperately pulls off Elibel trying to climb with his nails up my body.

Oh, I mean, wait a minute. What did you just say?

"The bull demon that Eli defeated two hundred years ago is the family of Yamu's former companion, or star vein. Abyss Rigguld, former Tertiary Guardian of the Star Veins.

'What...!?

"Earthwwwwwwww!!!

"Hiaaaaah! It's frightening -! Ereberruhi, I'm so frightened -!" (BallyBallyBallyBally!!

I mean, it hurts! Elibel, it hurts!

Scale, don't peel!

And Val, don't cry!

There's no such thing as a little thunder!

What the hell is this chaotic situation?

I wonder if I can really get it back...

◇ ◆ ◇ ◆ ◇

The magic diffused into the atmosphere converges.

Until then, the magic that had fallen apart took a long time and took shape little by little.

I'm calling.

Someone's calling.

In response to that call, the fog eventually converges into one form.

A flashy outfit based on red and white.

The mask that hides the face was also a clouded design somewhere that matched the costume well.

The vain eyes behind the mask look around.

Eventually, he rang his throat slowly.

"... that? Where are we?
