The 31st Piece Turns the Tables Chapter 466

Episode 466:

Snowfall visited Maktus, who was staying next to the stone statue at the summit, the next day.

“Leave this child to me.”

“….”

“Do you need to worry?”

It was as he said.

First of all, it was completely impossible to predict how the situation would progress at this point.

Meanwhile, flight training.

There were many issues to consider, such as how long it would take and whether there would be a power vacuum.

“How much time do you need?”

“There’s no way it could be done that quickly. “Until I fly.”

“….”

“I will take charge of it until it flies.”

“That is…”

“Child of Tancrid, I will tell you, no dragon in this world can teach her how to fly. But…”

The corners of Maktus’ mouth rose.

“It’s different for me. I can understand this kid. Maybe this too is fate…. If she misses this time, she might never be able to fly. “Choose well.”

Maktus’ words felt like truth.

No, what he said was true.

‘Not even Tansia’s sister, Tantuinu, can understand her…’

Tantuinu was a dragon who had taken the so-called elite course. She flew just in time and grew to feel similar to her mother, Tancrid.

But Tansia is different.

From the moment she was born, many things were mixed. It was a birth and growth that no one could understand.

If there was only one dragon in the world who could understand her and teach her… it would be Maktus.

‘I really didn’t know that Maktus’ mouth would open…’

Pandea’s life forms evolve through time, experience, and all kinds of spiritual changes.

This is not the only life in history that has awakened human speech and reason in a non-human body.

Maktus is also currently walking down that path.

Kang Seol rested his chin and was lost in thought.

‘… In the end, it’s not me who decides.’

When he looked at Tansia, Tansia nodded.

“Tansia, I want to stay.”

“…Do you want to?”

“I want to fly. So, no matter how long it takes, I will stay here.”

Maktus snorted in response.

“okay! “That’s how it should be!”

Kangseol said, stroking Tansia’s head.

“Anytime you get tired….”

“It’s not hard! “I will do it!”

“… I’ll come pick you up.”

Kang Seol and his group came down from the summit, forcing themselves to take steady steps.

Tanxia has decided to stay on Mount Jorun, so she stays. However, Jiang Xue and his party were scheduled to leave Jorun as soon as their next destination was decided.

So, goodbye for the time being.

“Can I just go?”

Konji asked, digging his ears.

“Because Tansia chose it.”

“It’s nice to have clarity.”

Snowfall answered sharply and walked down toward Baldu’s village.

And I stopped for a moment in front of the roadside monument.

Konji read the words written on the tombstone.

“Song of Folly?”

“… It’s like Baldu’s marching song.”

“oh! I’m interested! “I want to read it.”

The rest of the group also listened to her in front of the tombstone.

“I tell the dragon, realize that we are foolish. hmm? “A self-deprecating story?”

Konji scratched his head and continued reading.

“You winged one, you scaly one.”

Konji’s expression changed.

“O fire-breather, we have no wings, we have no scales, and we cannot breathe fire. One will fight.”

“Well…”

“We will foolishly fight you. So, you, please realize our foolishness.”

The lyrics contained the story of what kind of fight Baldu, the owner of Wing Canyon, had been through.

Kangseol recited the last verse that was not written on the tombstone.

“Baldu….”

The voices rang out in layers.

“You should cover the sky.”

“You should cover the sky.”

It wasn’t Konji who said the same thing as Kangseol. It was Ka-bu, the chieftain of Baldu.

“Do you know your father’s song?”

When Kazan sang Baldu’s song, the last sentence was always added. That was Baldu’s prime time.

“How on earth do you know?”

“I heard it by chance while wandering the north.”

“I see… Legends are like rain, so everyone in the world knows about them. I feel like I’ve heard my father’s memories scattered in pieces. “Did you say snowfall?”

“That’s right.”

Ka-Boo proposed to Kangseol.

“Are you interested in your father’s story?”

“It’s not like it doesn’t exist.”

“Haha… I just need someone to talk to, so would you two walk for a while?”

Kang Seol nodded with surprised eyes.

“… great.”

The rest of the group returned to the village, and only Kang Seol and Ka-bu remained and walked slowly.

“Baldu was a strong tribe from the beginning. “It only became widely known after the legend created by my father and Maktus.”

“Who would doubt that Baldu is strong?”

“Hahaha….”

Kang Seol took a quick look at Ka-Boo’s face. He noticed that his expression was stiff and thought that he would soon hear Ka-Boo’s true feelings.

“It is now a legendary day when there was a fight between the sky dragon Azanic and my father Kha-Zan.”

“That day.”

“… okay. I still remember it vividly. A black spear forged from the horn of an ancient dragon. “It was my father’s window.”

“It didn’t have a name back then, did it? “After the fight, he was named Dragon Slayer.”

“You know quite a bit. That’s right. Dragon slayer. The spear blade is curved on both sides and has a solid pillar in the center. “It was made with the assumption of aerial combat, so it was easy to apply force no matter which direction you swung, and when you stabbed it, it was good enough to pierce the scales of a dragon.”

Ka-Boo explains about the dragon-slayer spear. Kang Seol thought that the spear carried on Ka-Buga’s back looked similar to that of a dragon slayer.

“That spear…”

“Ah, it was made together with my father’s spear. It’s a bit short because it’s a window I’ve been using since I was young. “Well, that’s what makes him attractive.”

“… You resemble your father in some ways.”

“Me with Him? Ha…don’t even say that. “When I was growing up, I compared myself to my father so much… I wanted to throw everyone, elders and all, into a ravine.”

“Hahaha….”

“…everything was a burden.”

“Is that so?”

From here on, the part that Kangseol doesn’t know. This was after Kazan left Baldu.

“I am not as strong as my father. My father is the one who crashed Azanik into Wing Canyon. Of course, you are the strongest among humans.”

“….”

“After seeing the fight that day, I gave up the idea of catching up with my father. “I just reminded myself of my resolve not to tarnish my father’s honor.”

There are times when the light illuminated by those who have gone before is so dazzling that it burns the eyes of those who follow.

“The shortage is at its worst right now. More than half of the drakes have disappeared, and they are all gradually losing the will to fight. All of this… I feel like it’s my fault. “It would have been different if my father had been by my side.”

The snowfall stopped.

“well.”

“… what?”

“The era of Kha-Zan has long since ended. “It is true that he left a big mark on Baldu’s history, but he didn’t work hard for that long.”

“What do you want to say?”

“I think it can be summarized by saying that perhaps the reason Baldu has prospered so much is not simply because of Kazan’s shadow.”

It is said that Baldu could not have become this strong with just Ka-Zan’s halo. Ka-Boo laughed.

“You’re good at flattery. “I have to be on guard.”

“It wasn’t flattery.”

“hey.”

Ka-Boo looked at the snowfall.

“Can I consider you a friend?”

“These are dangerous times. “If you reduce your friends and enemies together, there will be fewer fights.”

“If your friends increase, it doesn’t matter if your enemies increase.”

“….”

“… That’s what Baldu says. “How is it?”

Kang Seol chuckled.

The descendants of Kha-Zan have become friends now.

“great. friend.”

“Okay then, buddy! “I would like to ask you a favor to commemorate the occasion.”

Ka-Boo made eye contact with Kangseol and spoke seriously.

“Help me find the drake. “Then Baldu will help you.”

* * *

Tansia, who was left behind, looked around.

“Don’t look at me, little one.”

“It’s not a kid, it’s Tansia.”

“The black-haired person earlier disappeared. “Stop looking.”

“Could it be that they are hiding over there and watching?”

“Your master also gave permission. You were entrusted to me. “From now on, call me Master.”

“It’s not the owner, it’s the father!”

“huh? “How can a human become a dragon’s parent?”

“I don’t know! But it feels that way!”

“Um… come closer.”

A dragon as big as a stone statue approached Tansia and finely tuned its claws.

Jeok…

I lifted my eyelids and checked Tansia’s pupils.

“S-try it.”

“Eh…”

“Don’t just make a sound, stick out your tongue.”

“to-.”

Take out her tongue and check.

“Hmm, I see. “You swallowed the shadow?”

“huh!”

“Your mother is Tancrid. Hmm… It looks like she wasn’t in a position to embrace you until the end. Was it inevitable that I swallowed the shadow in order to be born?…”

“It wasn’t inevitable! “It was warm!”

“It must have been the will to survive. “Because you can’t be born from an egg that wasn’t hatched.”

“This… this….”

“Well, interpret it however you want. “I just judge your body as I want.”

“okay? “What is Tansia’s condition?”

Tansia pricked up her ears as if she needed an accurate evaluation of her.

“I ate so much that my body became heavy.”

“Huh… I didn’t eat that much.”

“The shadow. “It has full potential, but we don’t know how long it will take for it to bloom.”

Maktus pointed a finger at Tansia, who became sullen at those words and lowered her head.

“But my teacher, this body is Maktus, the dragon who ruled the sky together with the great warrior Kha-Zan.”

“Is it great?”

“Very much. “If you serve your teacher, it won’t be long before you can fly.”

Tansia bowed to Maktus in an instant.

“Master!”

“OK!”

“I want to fly!”

“Take it to heart! “Flying is love!”

“love?”

“Memorize it!”

“love!”

The eccentric dragon Maktus began teaching Tansia the strange method of flying.

* * *

Kangseol and his party decided to help the Baldu tribe, but how specifically would they help them? No, it was unclear whether the whereabouts of the missing dragon could be found.

“Will it just jump out?”

“You’re not going to have any dealings with Baldu for the rest of your life?”

“… To fight Azanic, you need Baldu. But how do you deal with Azanik without Kazan?”

“It won’t be too late to think about that after finding the flying dragon…”

“As far as Konji… What do you think of Snowfall?”

“hmm? Ah….”

Kang Seol wondered about the series of events that happened to Baldu.

‘You released the flying dragon without killing it? ‘Why?’

Because I need a drake.

Or because they are useful.

‘At least it’s a better situation than the dragon being killed…’

This is still just a vague estimate. With her head in confusion, Snowfall went outside and walked along the cliff.

The topography of the canyon had sharp rocks growing like thorns, impeding flight. And the wind moved strangely, as if there was a storm…

Once again, I thought it was amazing that Baldu could fly even in such an environment.

Sigh…

Just then, Kangseol sensed a presence.

A bit of hostility clearly writhing towards him.

The reaction was immediate.

Faaaaaaaaaaa!

Snowfall turns around and catches the attack.

Visual information poured in.

Big fists, unusual size, flashy jewelry, and tattoos all over the body.

There are no humans there.

“… what?”

“… Confirmation.”

This time, the opponent surprises Kang Seol with words.

The words that came out were troll language. From then on, Kangseol lost strength in his attacks.

An opponent whose identity and reason for approaching is unknown. There was no one better to obtain information from.

Wow!

Paaaang-!

Whirling-!

Snowfall rotates its body and kicks the troll’s fist with its foot.

grasp-!

“like!”

Boom…

I pulled myself together and kicked the troll in the chest several times.

Bababababaak-!

“Hahaha!”

An opponent who stumbles and retreats.

“You look after me too much.”

“Reveal who it is. “The fight comes next.”

“why? “I attacked you?”

“Because there is no hostility.”

“Hmm… I can’t believe you know how to speak troll language.”

“Why did you look for me?”

The troll said with a grin.

“Because you are the strongest on this mountain.”

“….”

The opponent was someone who was skilled enough to find the strongest among so many people.

“Are you the chief of Baldu?”

“no.”

“Tsk… then it’s in trouble.”

Kang Seol’s eyes flashed and she remembered something.

“You… you know, right?”

“Hmm? Ah…”

The troll grinned.

“Where did the dragons go?”
