Cecilia was a dragon born in the Abyss.
Abyss (å¥è½).
A place called hell among hells. The black flames emerging from there could turn even formidable monsters into ashes in an instant.
A dragon born at the end of hell was exceptional from the start.
It swallowed the black flames that appeared only in the Abyss. It became the master of the black flames and the entity that burned hell.
From birth, it awakened its spirit abilities and carved its own story into the world.
This innate story created its rank.
Even the superior demon that targeted her immediately after birth was crushed in her grasp.
This happened just after her birth. Time passed. Her body grew stronger, and her magic power continuously surged.
It was a vast vessel, as if it could engulf an entire world.
When she was not even 100 years old.
Even the 72 demons dared not oppose her, and even the Demon King Solomon, who ruled hell, could not treat her recklessly.
A chaotic dragon wandering hell. Abyss Dragon, Black Flame Dragon. All sorts of titles adorned her. Even then, Cecilia could not define herself. None of the names suited her.
Cecilia, wandering hell, then saw.
A being sacrificing itself to save a delicate demon.
After seeing the demon, her curiosity grew. The thought of the strong respecting the weak started to change.
She met a race.
It was a being with scales opposite to hers. A being with silver scales reflecting everything.
Illusion Dragon.
Her world changed after meeting it.
This was a big problem.
I thought while racking my brain.
At this rate, Iâd end up getting kidnapped without a fight.
The problem was that even if I let this slide, it was still a problem. If Cecilia realized that human society persecuted me, she might move to destroy Korea.
Korea wouldnât fall easily.
But many heroes will die. No matter how much Celestial intervened, it would only be a temporary measure. Itâs not just the difference in power, but also the inherent rank and compatibility issues.
Celestial couldnât inflict fatal wounds on Cecilia, and she could easily tear apart Celestialâs magic.
âNo, rather, is this an opportunity to understand the effects of the special stat Dragon (é¾) and âBlack Heavenly Dragon Blood (S+)â?â
The true nature of dragons was shrouded in mystery.
Including me, even all the veteran players hadnât identified more than seven dragon species.
The Red Dragon, Flame Explosion Dragon, the Shadow Dragon, Shadow Conqueror Dragon, the Illusion Dragon that refracts all power and cannot be seen, the Black Flame Dragon born in hell and killing superior demons right after birth, the Holy Light Dragon using light power, and the Seven-colored Dragon using rainbow power.
âEven the mountain range was refracted, and I couldnât properly see it.â
However, seeing the scene, Kim Seo-hyun could only guess it was a dragon.
Anyway, little was known about dragons.
Since ãEpic Worldã didnât properly cover them, I thought they might be dealt with in a sequel.
So, I didnât really understand dragons.
âEven though I obtained dragon blood, I didnât gain any linguistic or resistance abilities.â
Magic or sorcery was the same.
According to Eternal Heaven, my basic sorcery aptitude increased noticeably, but it wasnât at a level worth pursuing right now.
-Seo-ha, youâre already on a smooth path, just keep doing what youâre doing.
-I agree with Eternal Heavenâs words, master.
If those two agreed, itâs obviously best not to pursue it. So, I had been pondering how to utilize the power of dragons.
âAre you teaching me from the beginning?â
âYes. The last child of the clan, Seo-ha. I will personally teach you from start to finish.â
-From start to finish?
Black Heaven swallowed nervously and looked at Cecilia with a flushed face.
Eternal Heaven looked on in disbelief.
I glanced back. I brought them along, but it seems Iâll have to go alone from here.
âMay I briefly inform my companions?â
âCompanions?â
Ceciliaâs eyes turned to the Elder. Her eyes, flickering with black flames, transformed into reptilian vertical yellow pupils.
ââ¦â¦!â
The Elder flinched greatly. Just her staring at him. The mere act pressured the Elder.
âSuch an impossible creatureâ¦â¦!â
The Elder staggered and collapsed. The Elder was strong. But the opponent was even more formidable. That being was one that even transcendents dared not act recklessly against. Itâs a being that could wipe out a nation in the blink of an eye.
Even gods could not act recklessly against dragons.
âQuite useful. Suitable to be a servant.â
Cecilia looked at the Elder and evaluated him.
âBut child, since you called them companions, I will also respect them.â
âThank you.â
âYes, child. Treasure your companions. Bonds are important.â
ââ¦â¦.â
I looked at Cecilia walking alone.
âThen, letâs go to my nest.â
âAre you using magic?â
âNo, there are too many annoying creatures to travel by magic.â
Simultaneously, Cecilia laughed. Black flames rose from her body. The black flames stretched back and took the shape of a dragon.
-Ride.
ââ¦â¦.â
I stared blankly at Cecilia.
She told me to treasure my companions, and then she tests them and tells me to ride herâ¦â¦?
âI guess itâs better not to get too close to dragonsâ¦â
With that thought, I climbed onto Ceciliaâs head.
I contacted the Electronic Witch on my phone and informed the Elder, Ha Seong-hwi, and the Witch Maiden to protect the guild.
I also added that I would be safe. I explained that my body contains dragon blood, and thatâs why the dragon herself intervened.
âIâll ask her to keep this a secret from the guild.â
The Electronic Witch would handle it accordingly.
I turned my gaze to Cecilia.
âI hope to learn from this opportunity.â
The special stat Dragon.
I wanted to obtain the mysterious power that dragons possessed.
âââââ!!
The massive body of the Black Flame Dragon sliced through the wind. With a single wing flap, she moved as if teleporting. In an instant, she crossed the Pacific Ocean at an incredible speed.
âHow fast is she?â
It happened in the blink of an eye. Yet, I didnât feel any wind pressure. It was because a magical barrier that protected me was visible.
The Black Flame Dragon, arrived in Greece with a single wing flap. I knew this because.
âOlympus.â
I saw a huge white temple.
Above the white temple,
I felt a giant presence watching us. It was a wary gaze.
âZeus?â
Other gazes began to focus on us. Intense stares. They began to watch the Black Flame Dragon closely.
Did the Black Flame Dragon reside in Europe? Europe was like a battlefield with all the mythical forces there.
The Nazi Empire, Olympus, Asgard, and Ireland, with all sorts of myths mingling. It was a battleground similar to China.
-This place is called Olympus. Gods who devour parts of European land reside here. They are severely restricted and get beaten by the Nazis, but donât mess with them too much.
âIs it because they can attack regardless of restrictions?â
-As expected, you are smart. Although it would be difficult with me here.
The Black Flame Dragon said, looking at the temple. Then she flapped her wings.
Flap.
The Black Flame Dragon seemed to enjoy the gazes and flapped her wings again. With one more leap, the place changed. A temple could be seen in the vast sky.
Asgard.
As soon as we arrived, I felt gazes piercing through. I looked below the sky rather than at the temple.
On the ground seemingly stained with darkness. There, beings affected by dark energy were chopping down magic warriors with axes.
They were Vikings and Valkyries.
âWhat is this place?â
-Asgard. Itâs similar to Olympus. They are quite troublesome beings.
âBut donât tell meâ¦â
-Your guess is correct. Normally, we would visit one more place, but itâs currently in an urgent situation, so itâs not worth paying attention to.
The Black Flame Dragon said and flapped her wings again.
This time, she crossed the sky as if teleporting. Then I saw a huge temple. It was a place I had seen earlier when I came to the United States.
âHundred Temple.â
As we approached, I felt about 30 gazes fixed on us.
I sighed inwardly. I guessed the reason for the Black Flame Dragonâs continental tour.
âIt must be to warn them not to mess with us.â
If they didnât want to fight her, they shouldnât mess with this child.
She must have warned each faction in a way I didnât know. She warns each faction alone.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Itâs something even a powerful being wouldnât usually do, but the Black Flame Dragon was not an ordinary being. Even a formidable transcendent being would be torn apart if they collided with her.
-Black Flame Dragon? Why are you carrying that man?!
The God of War reacted immediately.
-Hmm? How do you know Seo-ha?
-That being is my apostle! Do not touch him!
-Apostle�
âI received power from the God of War.â
-Oh, I see. Indeed, the last child of our clan is so talented that one might covet him. But donât touch him.
-The last child of the clan� What nonsense!
I swallowed hard.
If it was the God of War, he would know that I didnât have dragon blood, so I spoke to the Black Flame Dragon before he said anything.
âI, I want to see your nest quickly.â
-Of course. Seo-ha, if itâs your request, we must go.
Flap.
And once again, we moved.
âNo.â
I was bewildered as soon as I saw the place the Black Flame Dragon moved to. No, I couldnât help but be bewildered. It wasnât the blue sky. She moved right above it.
Countless stars twinkled. The Black Flame Dragon spread her wings and spoke to me.
-This is my nest.
On the moon, where the Earth could be seen as a planet.
The Black Flame Dragon spoke with dignity.
