Breakers Chapter 74:

Chapter 74 - Chapter 11: Sword Duke #5

The voice of the woman he had heard every time he used the power of Conquest . . .

The beautiful woman who emerged in his head in every moment of crisis .

It was only a cold, grey slab, but In-gong naturally coloured in the picture engraved on the slab .

A golden crown, white hair, mysterious red and blue eyes .

Conquest .

That was her name . She wore pure white clothes and led the group .

"War . "

He looked at someone behind the white woman and was naturally able to recall the colour .

If the woman wearing the crown was pure white, the woman in armour was crimson .

The woman surrounded by flames was wearing red, blood-like armour . Her eyes were thick and dark blue . They were eyes that reminded him of the sword duke .

Additionally, there were two men behind the women .

One was blue and the other was black . Unlike the previous two women, he couldn’t recall them in his head .

Four people .

Ainkel had called In-gong a Conquest Knight . If so, did the power of Conquest come from these four people, particularly the white woman?

In-gong’s eyes rolled as he thought . The four people had been drawn exactly opposite the elder dragons .

Why were they a mirror image? Did the four people and the elder dragons have a hostile relationship with each other?

The elder dragons were said to have godlike powers .

The four people were opposite them . . . This might mean the four people were god-like beings comparable to the elder dragons .

‘Watcher Ainkel . ’

In-gong had only faced her for a short time . He had merely heard her voice emerge from Green Wind’s mouth .

However, In-gong hadn’t felt like she was an enemy . After conquering Green Wind and taking Ainkel’s dragon heart, instead of thinking of her as an enemy, he felt closer to her .

Why?

Didn’t the four people have a hostile relationship with the elder dragons?

Or did the composition of the picture mean something else?

In-gong tried to find any new clues in the slab, but the slab didn’t have any writing around the picture . He looked at other slabs nearby but couldn’t find anything related .

Conquest Knight . . .

Conquest and War . . .

The identity of the remaining two were unknown .

However, their relationship with the elder dragons . . .

Why did they have a record stored in Thunderdoom Fortress?

In-gong looked back at the white woman . She had a very determined and calm face . He had never seen a different expression on the white woman .

In-gong glanced at the picture one last time before putting it back where it had been originally . He wanted to take it but couldn’t put it in his inventory due to the special protection magic around the archives .

At that time, he heard a whisper from Green Wind,

'Master, can you come over here? I have done something worthy of praise . Look quickly . ’

There was a lot of excitement in her voice .

It was a cute child-like voice that bounced continuously .

In-gong smiled involuntarily and turned in the direction of her voice .

“What's going on?"

'I found a record for the elder dragons . The dwarves in this fortress seem to be really interested in dragons . ’

Green Wind swung her arms while she sat on White Eagle . She was translucent like a ghost, but her smile was vivid .

'This way, this way . ’

Instead of a slab, a large book was waiting for In-gong . There was a stand that the book was placed on, but the stand was made for a dwarf, so it was a little uncomfortable to use .

In-gong solved the problem by sitting on White Eagle and Green Wind sat next to him, urging In-gong on again .

'There is some related content here . ’

She had been born from the fragment of Ainkel, so she could also read the dwarf characters . In-gong read the letters, that Green Wind was pointing at, slowly .

'Violent Kaltein . ’

An elder dragon with the power of fire .

'Isn’t this useful information?’

He had just read the first line when Green Wind knocked against his side and asked, Instead of looking at Green Wind’s face, In-gong pulled back and looked behind her .

‘Master?’

"No, you don’t have a tail . ”

If she did, it would be wagging wildly .

‘I don’t know what Master is talking about . ’

Green Wind sounded puzzled, but In-gong just patted her head .

“Well done . I think it will help . ”

‘Is that so? Then just read it . I will enjoy the praise after a while . Instead, I’ll ask for the praise to last a little longer . ’

Her smiling face was really pleased . It wasn’t merely about the praise but because she had been helpful to In-gong .

In-gong patted her head a few more times before focusing on the contents of the book . It was a legend about the residence of Violent Kaltein .

The elder dragons had aliases that matched their characters .

Enkidu was the tyrant with the power of destruction .

Ainkel was the gentle mother and compassionate to all, while Queian was the wise and thoughtful sage .

Violent Kaltein was the warrior .

He was remembered as a hot dragon due to his ‘violence’, but he was closer to ice than to fire . Kaltein wasn’t easily rattled and he looked at everything with calm eyes .

A cold flame .

A silent warrior who didn’t pull out his sword easily, but once he did, the world would burn with his intensity .

Like the other elder dragons, he was missing . The information in the book was about an old lair that Kaltein had stayed in hundreds of years ago .

‘The book itself was created hundreds of years ago . . . So, it has been almost a thousand years?’

Suddenly, Ainkel’s death popped into his head . She had lost her life a thousand years ago . Ainkel’s death . . . The elder dragons disappearing from the world .

In-gong stopped those thoughts and focused on the book again . It was a map from hundreds of years ago, but he could instantly tell where the map was pointing to when he saw it .

'It isn’t far . ’

It was very far from where In-gong’s party was, but it was near to where they were going .

It was the place where Amita, the best blacksmith in the Demon World, was staying .

According to the sword duke, Amita was staying near Spider Forest . Spider Forest was close to the land of the lycanthropes while Kaltein’s old lair was at Sun Lake, to the north of Spider Forest .

An elder dragon with the fire attribute had his lair at a lake . Numerous Knight Saga fanatics had searched for Kaltein’s lair and hadn’t found anything .

'It seems like this journey will be a set of destinations . ’

After the work with Amita, he was going to meet Chris and Caitlin but he now added Kaltein’s lair as another destination .

If the journey went as planned, he could expect a nice upgrade in terms of equipment .

‘Have you read everything? Master, what do you think?’

Green Wind asked, having run out of patience . Instead of saying anything, In-gong just kept on stroking Green Wind’s head .

 

&

 

In-gong’s group stayed at Thunderdoom Fortress for four days .

After they finished going through the armoury and treasures, Felicia started exploring Thunderdoom Fortress as a ruins explorer, not a treasure hunter .

In-gong spent half the day in the archives and the other half in an empty room training . He had wanted to learn a few more things from the sword duke, but the sword duke left the fortress .

‘I will meet Prince again after you return to the Demon King’s Palace . I look forward to Prince being much stronger than you are now . '

It was a farewell that contained a lot of burden .

Unfortunately, he couldn’t find any more information on the elder dragons in the archives . It was the same for the four people, including the white woman .

If there was one consolation, it was Carack’s growth .

The King's Knights was one of Conquest’s skills . Call was the only part of The King's Knights .

“How is it? Don’t you think that you’ve become a little stronger?”

In-gong asked Carack with a voice filled with expectations . It was shortly after using Upgrade for the first time .

The King's Knights- Upgrade .

It was appropriate compensation for something who achieved merits for the king . His position became higher and the power of the king could give him more strength .

Carack had achieved many merits after becoming In-gong’s knight and had already gathered enough merits for an upgrade . Carack, who had upgraded from a soldier to leader of the soldiers, looked at himself slowly . He punched his chest lightly before saying,

"It was worth all that hard work . ”

His strength had increased . In particular, his mood had improved significantly . Even though he struck his chest, he never felt sick .

That wasn’t the only effect . Carack didn’t know yet, but his resistance to various attributes, including fire, had increased greatly . He also had a stronger resistance to poison which meant he could now endure a light poison .

'Indeed, the king’s shield . ’

Once Call was used, he would become In-gong’s shield, so In-gong nodded with satisfaction .

"Please keep working hard in the future . ”

Carack made a strange expression after In-gong’s encouragement, but it was only for a short moment . Within seconds, he smiled and tapped the newly received dwarven magic shield .

Karma looked on with envy as she formed fists and declared .

"I’ll work hard as well . ”

If Carack was his shield, then Karma was his shuttle . She was like a moving vehicle for others who weren’t In-gong, but it was still useful .

Looking at Karma’s shining eyes, In-gong was reminded of Caitlin .

‘Won’t she be amazed?’

In-gong’s current strength was no comparison to what it had been when he had last seen her . Caitlin would be greatly surprised at his appearance .

Once he was in the land of the lycanthropes, he was thinking of sparring against Caitlin . Even if he didn’t use Earth Quaker and White Eagle, In-gong felt like he could do fairly well against Caitlin .

'Will she freak out if she knows about Divine Sura Authority?’

He was looking forward to Caitlin’s and Chris’ reactions .

The next morning . . .

After Felicia confirmed that the party from the Demon King’s Palace had arrived at the nearby village, In-gong’s group left Thunderdoom Fortress .

Felicia stared at Thunderdoom Fortress with eyes that were just as sad as when she had to leave the Thunder Light Anvil, but it was unavoidable . Although the sword duke had said it would be okay for at least half a year, she couldn’t rest assured after knowing about Amita’s wanderlust . It was better to hurry as much as possible .

Then three days after In-gong’s party had departed from the Thunderdoom Fortress, a new person arrived in order to lead the fortress exploration .

It was the 2nd Prince Zephyr Ragnaros .

 

&

 

The fact that General Kashubal’s death had been a trap to lure Zephyr had been reported to the Demon King’s Palace .

The draconians, who occupied prestigious positions in the palace, were furious that their prince was targeted, but Zephyr remained calm .

He chose the Thunderdoom Fortress exploration mission, but the demon king, Mitra, did not show any signs of interest .

There were many stories about Zephyr . There were those who called Zephyr arrogant and provocative while others praised the 2nd Prince .

Zephyr behaved as usual after he arrived at Thunderdoom Fortress . He examined the remnants of the shadow puppets, reviewed the progress of Thunderdoom’s exploration and, after completing various office work, looked at the traces of fighting .

He carefully examined the place where the man with the spear had self-destructed, then he visited the armoury, treasure rooms and archives .

Zephyr entered the records room alone and didn’t look at the list of information logged by Felicia . Despite it being his first visit, he moved forward without any hesitation .

A strong attraction that couldn’t be defined led Zephyr to one area .

Just like In-gong, Zephyr stood in front of a pile of slabs . He also pulled out the same stone slab that In-gong had chosen .

The picture of the six elder dragons and four people .

Zephyr knew three of the people .

There was only one face that he didn’t know .

The woman wearing a crown at the forefront .

Zephyr’s eyes narrowed as he turned his gaze towards the three people he already knew .

War, Famine and Death . . .

And the six elder dragons who were hostile to them .

The forgotten myths and legends . It was a picture from a long time past . . . a thousand years ago .

The crowned woman caught Zephyr’s eyes once again before he put the slab back where it had been . Rather than searching for other records, he recalled the feeling he had sensed at the central plaza .

The aura of death that remained in the place where the man with the spear had self-destructed .

Zephyr slowly closed his eyes .

That line that had once been broken was continuing again .
