Dimensional Sovereign Chapter 77:
Chapter 77: Naga Queen (4)
If anyone was watching the current situation, they would think Kang-jun was crazy .
Of course, it wasn’t because Kang-jun asked the naga queen to become his subordinate .
A sovereign could ask anyone to become their subordinate, even if they were rejected .
Furthermore, if a sovereign’s charisma was high enough, even the most outspoken person might be willing to accept the offer .
However, what if the other person was already part of someone’s household?
Whether the lord was a sovereign or demon king, it was considered impossible .
The extremely powerful Second Demon King Colladikus would never allow the naga queen to leave!
It was literally nonsense . People would have no choice but to call Kang-jun crazy .
Kang-jun also knew this well . He had already heard it several times from Keirun .
Yet there was a reason why he suddenly made the offer .
[Naga Queen Melinad is not a sincere follower of the Second Demon King . She joined him to save the nagas . ]
[However, the Second Demon King abandoned his promise to Melinad and she is very angry . She is also trembling at the Second Demon King’s monstrous behaviour . ]
These messages suddenly popped up .
This situation had happened once before . He used it to convince Colt, who was Jung Kwang-hyeon’s follower, to join him .
[Your charisma isn’t high enough to accommodate Queen Melinad . You must have 20 charisma in order for Melinad to willingly accept you as her lord . ]
The problem was Kang-jun’s charisma .
Charisma: 11 (+4)
He had a total of 15 points . This wasn’t low, but he needed five more points in order to obtain Naga Queen Melinad .
[However, Melinad is in a crisis . If you say that you will get her away from the Second Demon King Colladikus, her heart will be shaken . ]
[Even so, she won’t easily become your subordinate . ]
[Listen to her conditions . If you can get Naga Queen Melinad to join your side then Mission 14 is considered to be complete . ]
If he listened to the naga queen’s terms and made her join, then he could complete Mission 14 without killing her!
Although it wasn’t directly mentioned, one important premise was given .
It was the premise that Kang-jun could free the naga queen from Colladikus .
The ability to release someone from a household!
If it hadn’t been a coincidence, was it a hidden power of the Demonic Dragon’s Ring like Keirun said?
The problem was that Kang-jun didn’t know how to activate the ability . It seemed to be a phenomenon that occurred when a target, sensitive to the Demonic Dragon’s Ring, appeared or when certain conditions were fulfilled .
‘Anyway, this is a big hit . ’
The naga queen had a mighty combat power that dominated two commanders . If she joined his household, Kang-jun’s power would be several times stronger .
On the other hand, Queen Melinad’s expression was filled with confusion .
[Will you accept Sovereign Lucan’s offer?]
[If you accept then you will be Sovereign Lucan’s subordinate, not the Second Demon King Colladikus . ]
A new message appeared .
‘Accepting the offer will allow me to change lords?’
The human sovereign Lucan instead of the Second Demon King Colladikus?
Melinad was confused .
Being able to escape from the Second Demon King was like a miracle .
She had never imagined it in her wildest dreams .
However, she had to be under the power of another person .
Moreover, Lucan was a human sovereign .
It was better than being under the demon king but it still wasn’t enough to meet her expectations .
Kang-jun then said,
“Rest assured that I won’t punish your people for being defeated in a battle . ”
“ . . . . . . ”
Melinad looked silently at Kang-jun who simply smiled .
"Additionally, I will accept all the nagas . ”
“Don’t you want to use me and my subordinates in battle? Even if I become your subordinate, they will just end up being killed like now . "
"I don’t intend to force anything . ”
Melinad snorted .
"Do you expect me to believe that? I’ve already been fooled once . ”
Melinad thought that sovereigns wouldn’t need household members if it wasn’t for the purpose of war .
Kang-jun shook his head .
"Of course, I need your help . If you become my subordinate, you’ll get a lot of power . However, I won’t force you to do anything unless you want to . ”
Kang-jun stared intensely into Melinad’s eyes .
"If you want to rest, you can . There is something you should help me with if you are willing . Tell me if you have any other conditions . ”
"Conditions?"
“Yes . I will listen to your conditions and try to accommodate you as much as possible . ”
Then Melinad paused for a moment and opened her mouth .
"I need a space when I can live with my men . A place where no one can interfere . ”
“A space? What type of space?”
“Give me one of the buildings you own in Hwanmong . ”
"A building?”
"I’m not asking for ownership . I just want a place where I can stay with my people . ”
A satisfied smile appeared on Kang-jun’s face .
He thought she would demand something more but it was an unexpectedly simple condition . He just had to give a building to the naga queen .
He had been thinking of buying one more building . It wasn’t unreasonable since he had more than 5 billion won in cash .
He had already assigned it to Secretary and the real estate agent Kim Seok-cheol .
The Yugang building and Dafeng building contained bases, a rest area, workshops, barracks and a research institute, so he couldn’t give the buildings to Melinad . A newly purchased building would be a suitable place to live for the nagas .
“Okay . I will do so . ”
Kang-jun nodded easily .
Melinad made a startled expression . She didn’t think that Kang-jun would accept so easily .
“My conditions aren’t over yet . I no longer want to be a tool of war . So, I will refuse any orders . ”
"I have already decided to do that . Any other conditions?”
Melinad’s expression brightened noticeably .
"There are no other conditions . ”
The words emerged from her mouth .
"Instead, if your base is attacked, I will defend it with my 800 naga warriors . ”
They would participate in defending the base on a voluntary basis .
Kang-jun still felt hopeful .
A naga queen with 800 warriors! As long as they protected Kang-jun’s buildings, his bases wouldn’t collapse .
No matter how much money Hardis and his cronies collected, it was impossible for them to defeat the naga queen’s army . At the very least, they wouldn’t have anyone that could match the naga queen .
"So, we can remove our weapons . ”
"Yes . ”
Melinad nodded . Both of them simultaneously pulled their weapons out of each other’s chests .
Melinad immediately dropped her weapon to the ground and kissed Kang-jun’s right hand .
“Sovereign Lucan, you are now my lord . I, along with 827 naga warriors, will serve you . ”
[Naga Queen Melinad has joined your household . ]
[Melinad will become your faithful subordinate in Hwanmong . ]
[Mission 14 has been completed . ]
[As a reward, enough experience will be given to increase your level . ]
[10,000 nodes have been given as compensation . ]
[60 large moonstones have been given as compensation . ]
Level up!
He reached Lv35 .
However, that wasn't the end .
[One of the commanders of the Second Demon King, Naga Queen Melinad, and 827 of her naga warriors have become your power . ]
[You will be given 1,000 red moon achievement points for the special achievement . ]
His achievements rose by a huge 1,000 points .
It was great .
His points were higher than the whole enemy alliance group combined .
[You have succeeded in bringing a high level target into your household . ]
[Charisma has risen by one . ]
Charisma rose by one point .
Melinad bowed politely and said,
"So, I will head to your base . ”
The battle was over and the seal on this area was lifted . There was no place for Melinad and her 827 naga warriors to go except for Kang-jun’s base .
Chu chu chu .
She waved her hand and made a base return magic circle .
Kang-jun just smiled .
"Wait there . I will give you a new home soon . ”
"Yes, Lord . ”
Not only Melinad but the naga warriors around Kang-jun also bowed and disappeared into the circle .
(Keirun, the naga queen is coming . )
(Huh? What does that mean?)
(The naga queen has joined my household . )
(Huh? Who?)
(Naga Queen Melinad . )
( . . . . . . )
Keirun was silent for a moment . He was obviously shocked . Of course, he immediately regained his spirit .
(Lord! What happened? Did you really convince the naga queen to join?)
(Please take care of the new household member . She should have reached there by now . )
(Yes, she seems to be coming . T-this! Nagas are coming in endlessly . )
(The naga queen has 827 people . )
(T-that’s right . Hahaha! It is really wonderful, Lord!)
Keirun said in a frantic voice .
(I will buy a new building soon . Give the nagas a place to live for the moment . )
(Then I will arrange for a place in the rest area . )
(Good work . )
After a while, Kang-jun was left alone in the fortress .
Soon a magic circle would appear to return him to headquarters or Heksia would come to him directly .
Meanwhile, Kang-jun pulled out the silver box that he got from the clone .
There was also a book inside this time .
[Dark Transparency]
In the last silver box, he received knowledge about vampire mages . However, this time it seemed like some type of skill .
‘What is this?’
Kang-jun opened the book with a pounding heart .
Palrak .
At that moment, strange letters and patterns were absorbed into his body .
[The skill Dark Transparency has been learnt . ]
[Dark Transparency]
-Makes the body transparent using the power of black magic .
Movement speed in the darkness will increase greatly but the transparency will disappear once you attack an enemy .
-Duration lasts for 10 minutes .
-5 black magic energy will be consumed .
It was a skill that literally turned him invisible . Using five black magic energy could conceal his appearance for 10 minutes .
‘Amazing! Does this also apply to reality?’
In the past, he could augment his speed using Aura of the Wind in reality .
If so, it should be possible to use Dark Transparency .
Hwaaak! Hwaaack!
At that time, there was a brilliant light and two people appeared in front of Kang-jun .
They were Heksia and Grania .
Their faces were full of shock .
"Lucan! What happened?”
“I can’t believe it . How did you make the naga queen join your household?”
They already knew .
Kang-jun received 1,000 achievement points for a special achievement, so it was impossible that the commanders didn’t know .
Kang-jun just smiled .
"I was just a little bit lucky . ”
Heksia stared at Kang-jun like it was absurd .
"If that is luck then you are really fortunate . ”
On the other hand, Grania looked excited .
“What is wrong with luck? Luck is also a skill . Anyway, Lucan, you are now a force in the Earth Defense Army that can’t be ignored . ”
Heksia smiled .
“Now, I will reward you for the mission . I’d thought we’d lost but you did very well . ”
[You have destroyed the Jewel of Darkness . ]
[You have earned 300 red moon achievement points . ]
[You have killed the most nagas . ]
[You have earned 100 red moon achievement points . ]
[You have survived until the end . ]
[You have earned 50 red moon achievement points . ]
He received 1,000 points and now there was an additionally 450 points .
Today, he earned a huge 1,450 points .
