We Live in Dragon’s Peak

Hidden and Winged Clans

Native races were ingrained here long before the demons of the north and the gods of the south spread their forces.

The Hidden Clan.

A man has a strong body like a man, but his hands are dexterous and he creates wonderful works of art. Women are extravagant but active, chopping households instead of boneless men.

The Phoenix race was a generous race characterized by smooth white skin like white pearls and black, glossy hair like obsidian stones.

However, the Phoenix had only one flaw.

Vulnerable to the sunlight, the ball skin instantly blisters and gets severely burned in the sun.

Due to the unique shortcomings of the races, they mainly live underground and underground, and only show up on the ground for a small amount of time on the moon.

Nevertheless, in the majestic mountain ranges and lush mountainous areas, the hermits lived in peace.

The Winged first appeared there.

The winged tribe, who rode the wind and emigrated from the south, builds a friendly relationship with the hermit tribe, an indigenous people.

Underground Hades. A winged people living on the earth. We have been interacting with each other for many years to make up for what is missing.

In particular, the specialty that brought wealth to the winged tribes that had emigrated was precious metals such as delicate crafts created by the Phoenix tribe and precious gems from underground.

Instead of the Phoenix, who can't operate in the sun, the Winged go far to sell their wings. And they divided the profits among themselves, and the Phoenix and the Winged flourished greatly in the land.

However, the Phantom had another serious problem besides its physical flaws.

An incurable disease that leads to death.

The disease had quietly begun to spread deeply among the Phoenix before the Winged had contact with the Phoenix.

At first, it is said that there is a feeling of discomfort such as numbness on the fingertips and toes.

Next, your body's joints are painful and you begin to feel the weight on your body.

When the condition gets worse, the whole body starts to harden like a rock, and at the end, even the fingertips can't move, and they take their breath away.

Diseases that are peculiar to the Hidden Race, like no stroke of hand.

However, the Dark Serenity still lived peacefully in the face of incurable diseases.

The city of the Phoenix tribe was deep under the mountains.

The underground city, which has been expanding for a long time, was the center of this prosperous land.

A hidden underground city that attracts not only winged people with friends, but also many travelers from all over the world.

But there was a time.

Evil has befallen us.

It was the culprit of an incurable disease that continued to erode the Underworld.

A terrible curse has spread to the underground city.

People were terrified.

When I touched the curse of the black and red fog, my whole body hardened like a rock, even if I was not a Phantom, and I died.

That was not all.

At first, the curse that showed a foggy spread gradually increased in concentration, and gradually formed a creepy shape, which was eventually transformed into the figure of a black rock giant.

The black-rock giant swayed his curse into the underground city and went wild.

Neither the mighty Underworld Man, nor the winged warrior, nor the adventurer with arms could subdue the Black Giant whose curse had taken shape.

It is said that the winged tribe advanced to the underworld tribe.

If we stay in the underground city like this, the Underworld will be destroyed.

However, none of the Phantoms shook their heads vertically in the words of the Winged.

“This underground city is our home. A place where we live. And this disease was also with us. The Black Giant, whose illness has given birth to us, must also be a disaster of our own fate. Then we shall remain here with this disease and the Black Giant, and see the end of our race."

One thing. I'm concerned about what happened after we were destroyed. and the Phantom Clan entrusted their last wish to the Winged Clan, who had established a good relationship for many years.

Please, I need you to seal this curse.

Curses and black giants overflow the earth, and many races will perish.

The Winged listened to the last wish of the Hidden Clan.

We searched for the famous Shrine Maiden and sealed the ground entrance to the underground city.

At that time, my family greeted Yushida, who was a brilliant shooting star, sealed the cursed underground city with the gate of hell, and then continued to monitor the seal until today.

"Thrastal said.

"The underground city... and the curse and the ghost tribe"

Normally, it would be a chest-pounding adventure that would lighten my legs. Listening to Thrastal, we make the descent to the bottom of the lake heavier.

Well then, if the seal is lifted, the curse could still overflow on earth.

Ernesto, I think that's why Master Yushida laid out a large-scale [Mizukizuki Palace Formation] so that the entrance could only be solved temporarily.

"That's right, Rooseine." But if you do that, another question will come up. I wonder why Master Yushida has crafted a technique that can only solve the entrance seal. "

If we were to completely trap and seal the curse, wouldn't it be perfect if we didn't create an entrance?

Because I was preparing for the entrance, the demon tribe passed by years ago, and now the Divine tribe's Ethnic Need and Emperor Venerable Mansion are still about to break in.

When I asked a question, everyone tilted their necks and was troubled. [M]

Even Thrasher, who told me about the Curse with the Unseen, didn't answer with his mouth shut.

"Hmm. I can't understand Yushida's intentions."... but I think there's a reason we set up the entrance. And if we don't understand what that means, it's going to be a big deal, isn't it? "

I feel that way.

Hundreds of years? Thousands of years? Either way, the person who still crafted the magic to keep the curse sealed should not be able to break into magic without meaning.

Moreover, I don't think it would be foolish to bequeath the fall on a tablet.

So, I think this still makes sense.

Nevertheless, we are still unaware of Yushida's legacy.

I wonder what Master Yushida wanted for his posterity.

"Anyway, let's move on." If I leave them alone, those gods will enter the gates of Hell on their own. "

That's right!

As Mistral pointed out, we start moving our heavily stopped legs again.

Then, I followed the people from the Emperor Venerable Mansion who had descended to the bottom of the lake ahead of me.

"But Ernea's hunch is also important." One more thing, don't forget it. "

As we descend the path to the bottom of the lake, we listen to Mistral's words.

"I think the shrine maiden called Yushida who activated this kind of magic is amazing." But be warned, even that shrine maiden couldn't survive the curse and black rock giants in the underground city ahead. ”

"That's right! If we had cursed the underground city in the first place, we wouldn't have taken the last step of killing the Phoenix or sealing the underground city by city?"

The curse reminds me of demons and the worst case scenario.

Well then, maybe the Black Rock Giant is an evil race?

Don't you think? If it was an evil race, like Ernea said, I think Micheira and the others are already moving.

That's right, but the devil may be more likely.

Even when facing the Devil King, many monsters and demons appeared as a call to curse.

So, is the demon involved this time too?

We need to get into the underground city.

"Ernea"

What? Mistral.

Blocked by Mistral, I stopped on the cobbled streets stretching to the bottom of the lake.

"If there is a shortage in the future, it is good for you alone, so don't hesitate to give your full strength"

Mistral has instructed me to release my weight!

But that's right.

From here on out, it's different than before.

Once you enter an underground city, it will be a closed space in all directions.

Normally, we would choose to temporarily retreat in the event of an out-of-control situation. But if you go underground, you may find yourself in a situation where you can't even choose to retreat temporarily. After all, you can't escape from the underground to the ground in an instant, and you can't do anything to get Nimir to get bigger and fly away.

That's why we have to do our best before we're forced into a dangerous situation.

We have no weapons except Mistral. In that situation, I had to confront a terrible cursed demon. I'm forced to make a decision. [M]

Either run or fight back.

If you want to escape, you can escape!

However, if we had to fight back or if we couldn't escape.....

Unfamiliar underground hesitation can lead to death.

That's why Mistral told me.

If you have to, don't hesitate to give it your all.

In other words, if something happens beyond the gates of Hell, you should respond immediately and without hesitation, giving top priority to the safety of your family!

"Ernesto, I'm more motivated than usual."

Ernesto is more excited than usual.

Hmm, everyone laughs when they see me sniffling.

Looking at the state of my family, Thrastal, the only one accompanying me, tilted his neck strangely.

I'm sure you don't think anything will happen when I'm not a brilliant priest or a dragon.

"Nevertheless, it's a fine ruin." Isn't it much more splendid than a human country? "

We went straight down the road to the bottom of the lake.

Looking around the ruins, Sefina let out a sigh of admiration.

Indeed, all the columns and buildings left at the bottom of the lake were splendid and incomparably superior to the current level of culture of the winged people.

If you look closely, the cobblestone stretching to the entrance of the building has delicate carvings from near the entrance, and the carvings of people and animals carved on the columns are stunning.

"The Phoenix had extremely advanced machining technology. This ruin is their legacy, too. Then, losing their exchanges with them, the Winged, who began to be threatened by the demons and gods, gradually took away the forces, and the cultural level also fell."

Thrastar speaks lightly.

You're so calm about the decline of your own species.

No, I don't think so.

The Winged must have understood it a long time ago.

They said that they had no choice but to live side by side between the demons and the gods.

That's why Thrastal honestly accepted the fate of the Winged, and did nothing to the glory of the past. And I'm trying hard to survive the present times.

But at the same time, he was trapped in the past.

Through the gates of Hell, we must continue to monitor the underground cities and curses bequeathed to us by the Underworld.

It must be painful for Thrastal to lead the Divine Clan to the gates of Hell.

Still, since the existence of the Hades Gate has been revealed, we need to guide them to protect the Winged now.

I wonder what Thrasher thinks about the future as he walks down to the bottom of the lake with us?

I wonder if the Emperor Venerable Mansion and us, who dive through the gates of Hell and enter the underground city, should be destroyed by the curse at the ruins?

Because if all those who knew the secret of the gates of Hell were wiped out, they could keep their secrets for a while to come.

It was about Thrastal, the thoughtful one. You may have already thought about the time when the Divine Clan successfully passed through the underground city and left to the west of the Sky Mountains.

Either way, the current situation will only be annoying for Thrasher, so he will be thinking about how to defeat us and the Divine Clans, who are the rest and know the secrets of the Hell Gate.

That's what I thought.

Thrastal's next words brought us to an unexpected halt.

"Madeline, did you say that? If you're related to that Yushida. I must say on behalf of the Winged. Our winged nation was saved by Lord Yushida. Even now, we are grateful to Lord Usida. That's why I'll add it. If you encounter a curse in an underground city, run away without thinking. That's the only way to help. And. Whatever remains of an underground city, don't touch it. Don't touch the relics of the Dark Man."

Before joining the people of the Imperial Venerable Mansion.

Thrastal gave us his own advice.

What exactly does Thrastal's word mean? And how much does Thrastal know about the underground city?

We were slowly beginning to feel anxiety and fear ahead of the gates of Hell we were about to enter.
