Breakers Chapter 155:
Chapter 155 – Chapter 29: War Destruction #6
The wyverns, who had lost two allies to In-gong’s Dragon Breath, ran away . In fact, the big surprise was the Dragon Breath itself, rather than the wyverns dying .
Although it was the Dragon Breath from the most powerful dragon, its daily usage was still the same . In-gong was really glad the wyverns had escaped quickly before he only had one breath left .
The wyverns were driven out from the forest, and the animals no longer watched the party . Galang and the other Gullam hunters took care of the wyvern corpses hurriedly and focused on clearing the rear .
As the giants started to move, In-gong’s group moved close together . Felicia looked at In-gong with a bemused expression and said,
“Shutra is amazing . No, you are strange—a scam . ”
“Oh, this time there are some similarities, Princess . ”
Felicia ignored what Carack said and just looked at In-gong . In-gong grinned at the party before sending Felicia a wink . She understood the meaning of his gesture and called upon a wind spirit to make a curtain which would block out any sound .
“Shutra, what is going on? That… it was Dragon Breath, right?”
It was a situation where the sound was blocked out, but Felicia lowered her voice like she was afraid someone was listening . In-gong nodded .
“Perhaps . ”
“Wah! Does this mean that Prince will grow wings, a tail and horns?”
Carack asked with an excited face . Clearly, he was really excited about this . However, In-gong shook his head .
“Like I said before, it isn’t like that . Well, it might be possible if I learn polymorph magic . ”
“Ohhh . ”
Of course, using polymorph magic would make it a literal transformation, but he would still grow wings and a tail like Carack said .
“But the breath—was it due to the dragon heart?”
Felicia was still confused . In-gong raised his hand to the middle of his chest, where the dragon heart was, and replied,
“Yes, the Dragon Breath is more like the dragon heart’s essence, rather than a magic spell . A primal act? Anyway, it was something like that . ”
Dragon Breath wasn’t like a skill or magic; it was a right that a dragon enjoyed . Therefore, the Dragon Breath was closer to the essence of a dragon, than a magic spell . It was something which would awaken instinctively, such as how a bird could fly or a fish could swim .
Felicia looked confused again at the explanation and glanced at In-gong’s chest .
“Shutra, are you already closer to a dragon than a gandharva?”
Not only could he operate a dragon heart, but he could also shoot out Dragon Breath . If he could use magic spells, then he really would be a human type dragon .
“Well, I clearly saw a characteristic of the gandharva . ”
Carack said after recalling something . Felicia made a confused sound and asked,
“Characteristic of the gandharva?”
“Yes, a characteristic of the gandharva . ”
Felicia turned back to In-gong and narrowed her eyes .
“Uh… Shutra is very handsome . ”
“Noona is also pretty . ”
In-gong responded a little shamelessly to the sudden compliment of his appearance . It was true that Felicia was pretty . However, Carack said with a frown,
“This isn’t the time to be gloating . ”
In-gong shrugged while Felicia opened up her fan hurriedly . Delia, who had been watching quietly, said softly,
“Carack, beauty is a characteristic of both species . The gandharva and elves are both known as species with beautiful appearances . ”
Of course, the standards would vary from species to species, but even so, there were some mainstream standards . Carack thought for a moment before nodding .
“Well, indeed . Delia is also really pretty . ”
“Oh, my . ”
Delia turned red at Carack’s praise, while Karma frowned with vexation .
However, Carack didn’t go any deeper . He watched Felicia and asked,
“Princess, what characteristics do the gandharva have other than appearance?”
“Uh, let’s see? As far as I know… they have a good scent and are good at dancing and singing? There was a beautiful gandharva dancer, who was part of the Eight Legions, who went around performing to each species . Oh, they are also excellent at feeling the flow . They can sense everything that has a flow, whether it is the wind or aura . ”
These were pretty much all the species characteristics she knew . Carack thought for a moment before nodding .
“Well, the liquid that comes from Prince’s body is delicious . It is really unbelievably sweet and delicious . ”
“What? A delicious taste?”
Felicia turned to In-gong hastily, seeming to be yelling in his face .
In-gong replied hurriedly,
“I once tried drinking my blood . If I melt the magic power in the blood, it turns into a very sweet taste . ”
“Blood?”
“Not just blood… other body fluids are possible . ”
He had also experimented with his saliva and sweat .
“Does Noona want to try?”
In-gong asked, and Felicia quickly waved both hands .
“Uh, no . It’s okay . It is still blood . ”
“You will regret it later . It is really delicious . Don’t ask after this . My blood is precious . ”
In-gong answered with nonsense and pulled back his arm again . Carack laughed and asked Felicia another question .
“Then Princess, you mentioned something about the Eight Legions? What is the Eight Legions?”
“Uh, I don’t know? Carack?”
“I also don’t know . ”
“Weird . ”
Felicia smiled and glanced at Delia . It was a glance for help, so Delia opened her mouth immediately .
“The Eight Legions is a group of eight species that migrated here from a distance place . There is a story that they came from a place called the Celestial World, but it is just a legend, so it isn’t accurate . ”
The Eight Legions had appeared suddenly one day, but there was no evidence of where they really came from . It was thousands of years ago, so there was no one remaining who could testify about that time . The only clues were the records about the Eight Legions, but most of the records had been destroyed during the Era of Struggle . Now, it was just a legend .
“The species that belong to the Eight Legions are the gandharva, yaksha, sura, deva, karura, dragon, kinnara and mahoraga . Carack, you should have seen the yaksha and sura a few times . ”
The demon king was a sura .
Carack nodded at Felicia’s words .
“I’ve seen almost all of them . But this is the first time I heard that the eight species were related . ”
“Well, like I said, it is just a legend . There are some people who question the existence of the Eight Legions as species of the Demon World . However, is it that easy? It is a little bit ambiguous to point to a dragon or any other species . ”
The yaksha were probably the most active of the Eight Legions in the Demon World . Most of the other Eight Legions, including the sura, were few in number .
“Ohu . Then Princess, what are the characteristics of the dark elves and the sura? Prince and Princess both carry the blood of the demon king . ”
However, on the outside, the two of them didn’t seem to carry any sura blood . Right now, Felicia wasn’t much different from Delia who was a pure-blooded dark elf .
“I’ll tell you the characteristics of the dark elves . A beautiful appearance and… light and nimble body, high spirit affinity, longevity and special eyes that can see in the dark?”
As she listened to In-gong’s words, Felicia laughed . Then she continued on from his explanation,
“The sura are a natural combat species . They have good combat senses, high stamina, resilience and recovery . Aura is also a special talent . ”
They were literally a species born to fight .
“But the blood of the sura is less enthusiastic, so the children of the demon king tend to inherit more of their Omamama’s characteristics, rather than their Abamama’s . I guess the only obvious effect of Abamama’s blood is the childhood Silvan and I had . ”
“Childhood?”
“The other dark elves have a fairly long childhood . But Silvan and I aren’t much different from Shutra, Caitlin and Chris . ”
“Ah, is that so? Maybe Prince fights well due to the blood of the demon king . ”
Carack nodded his head like he was convinced .
After the explanations, Felicia turned to In-gong .
“Anyway, the Dragon Breath is really amazing and strange . Shutra, can you shoot it from anywhere other than your mouth?”
Although it seemed natural to shoot Dragon Breath from his mouth, some discomfort was unavoidable .
In-gong shrugged and replied,
“I’m glad it isn’t being shot from my eyes . And I’m also glad that it is in the form of a light pillar . If it was fire, the situation would’ve become worse . ”
“Indeed . ”
Felicia nodded slowly as she imagined In-gong shooting fire from his mouth . The pillar of light did seem easier to form and had less discomfort .
“Well, Noona, I think we should keep the dragon heart a secret from Galang and the Gullam hunters . Should I just say that it is a powerful magic or skill?”
There was a reason for blocking the sound around the party . Felicia immediately understood In-gong’s words .
“Indeed, I don’t think it would be good if Anastasia unni hears about this . Let’s do so . ”
He didn’t know if he would have to fight against Anastasia, but it was better to keep some things hidden . The more trump cards he had, the better .
Once the story was finished to a certain extent, Felicia put away the wind spirit . Then the Gullam hunters came up to In-gong’s party, and they all said the same thing .
“Drakon Kechatulla . ”
“Drakon Kechatulla . ”
“Drakon Kechatulla!”
It was a situation where even the reticent Galang had said it . Felicia and his companions all looked back at In-gong reflexively . All of them seemed to be asking In-gong about the meaning .
“I don’t know… the ‘great dragon warrior’?”
It was a language he didn’t know, but he did now . The woman’s voice was heard in his head .
[Ancient Giants Language Lv1 has been learnt . ]
The language of the ancient giants… In-gong stared at the words which seemed to be hiding something, but Felicia waved a hand in his face .
“It is convenient, but I’m starting to feel angry like I’m being deprived of something . ”
She worked hard to learn each letter . If she didn’t use it often, she would forget them .
While Felicia was grunting angrily, Galang lowered his face . He stared straight at In-gong and declared,
“Drakon Kechatulla . Finally, the incarnation of the dragon has returned . ”
There was an almost pious expression in Galang’s eyes, and it wasn’t simply because he was amazed at In-gong .
“It seems like there is something more . ”
Carack said, and In-gong agreed . He looked up and Galang and said,
“Tell me the story . ”
&
There was something which was passed down within the Gullam clan .
It was the image of a human, who was the incarnation of a dragon, fighting against a wicked red serpent **** in order to protect the world . The incarnation of the dragon fighting against the serpent **** wasn’t a prediction of the future but a depiction of the past .
Felicia broke down every part of the story Galang told them . Originally, the story was made up of parables and symbols .
Felicia replaced Galang’s words one by one .
‘The world was the forest . The evil serpent **** was a dragon . The human shaped incarnation of a dragon can be interpreted in different ways . It could be a warrior supported by a good dragon or a good dragon which polymorphed into the form of a person . ’
At Enger Plaints, there was the story of the centaur warrior who had protected the north after receiving White Eagle .
“Going by that… is there a relic associated with a dragon in the area?”
Felicia came to this conclusion, and In-gong agreed .
“It is most likely a dragon lair . ”
Perhaps it was a place associated with an elder dragon . Even if it wasn’t an elder dragon, it was the lair of a dragon which had lived thousands of years ago . So, it was a jackpot .
“My motivation is rising . ”
Felicia forgot about the sweat and the other worries she had in the past as she murmured .
In-gong looked at Galang and asked,
“Galang, is this also told among the Paran and Hwarin?”
“The roots of all three giant clans are the same . The story about the incarnation of the dragon is also handed down among the Paran and Hwarin . ”
Galang’s attitude toward In-gong was much more cautious than before . There was a reverence which couldn’t be hidden .
The incarnation of the great dragon…
If the Paran and Hwarin shared the same story, then they were likely to react in a similar manner to Galang .
In-gong remembered the centaurs of Enger Plains and nodded silently . As Felicia said, having more trump cards was good .
“Let’s go find the ruin . ”
There was still time left before the sun set . The party’s footsteps accelerated .
