I Am Alone EX-Grade Summoner Episode 211

Destruction Dragon (1)

Destruction Dragon.

During the Battle of Summoners era, when rankers were pulling S-grade summoned creatures left and right with heavy spending, this was the first S-grade summoned creature that Baek Jin-woo, who was free-to-play, had drawn.

‘In the case of the Destruction Dragon.’

Its sheer size was just overpowered.

Unlike the previously isolated ones with broken skills, bugs, or being ridiculously strong in specific situations.

‘It was just strong.’

Strong in power, fast in speed, and above all… its breath was on another level.

Actually, the breath was just something he tried out – most monsters could be taken down with claw swipes and tail strikes.

Baek Jin-woo got patched exactly 10 days after obtaining the Destruction Dragon.

The reason was, as mentioned before, using the excuse that he cleared the Chaos Dragon raid abnormally fast.

‘Hah.’

Just thinking about that time still makes him angry.

That was probably the most infuriating moment among all 10 summoned creatures.

There should be limits to everything.

What kind of nonsense is taking away an S-grade right after giving it?

Anyway.

The hatchling version of that Destruction Dragon was tied up over there.

“So it was a hidden monster of the Tower of Trials.”

– Is that the Destruction Dragon that Jin-woo always sang about?

Ramba asked.

Among the EX-grades, there was no summoned creature that overlapped with the Destruction Dragon.

They all had ephemeral fates.

“Yeah, that’s right. That’s the Destruction Dragon. There’s definitely a size difference from when I drew it, but I’m certain.”

– It looks scary.

– Pokryong’s heart is stirring. It’s being wary? It must possess tremendous potential.

Ramba and Pokryong looked on with anxious expressions.

– Master.

Hunkyo provided additional explanation.

– Indeed, it’s tremendous. Master, you said you never unlocked the Destruction Dragon’s subconscious, right?

“Yeah, what subconscious? It was a guy that disappeared within a week of being drawn.”

– My instincts tell me. That guy has tremendous subconscious potential. I’ve never seen it before. Potential higher than Aso’s.

Wow.

To that extent?

Besides that.

The other summoned creatures couldn’t even make eye contact with the Black Dragon.

Dragon Fear!

The dragon’s aura pressed down on them with truly overwhelming force.

Honestly, seeing this Black Dragon made it clear.

That Rachel’s Golden Dragon was fake.

“The Cadia Empire is impressive too, thinking of capturing and researching something like this.”

– Indeed.

“Researcher.”

Baek Jin-woo called the man.

“Yes.”

“Release that thing.”

“…You mean the Black Dragon?”

The researcher made a troubled expression.

It was National Treasure No. 1 that had been with the Cadia Empire’s history.

He didn’t know how they had sealed it, but it had been in that spot for hundreds of years.

“Release that? I don’t know what kind of criminal you are, but you’re talking nonsense.”

Step, step.

That’s when someone walked out from the corner.

It was a middle-aged man and a middle-aged woman.

“Gasp!”

The researcher was startled.

When asked why, he answered immediately.

“They’re the Security Captains. Both are tremendously skilled. One is a Grand Mage, one is a Sword Master… You can consider them much stronger than the Chimera.”

“Strong my ass.”

Baek Jin-woo casually looked them over.

These guys don’t know.

That we.

A few months ago, caught a guy named Asmodeus who lives in the demon realm beneath this continent.

How dare they try to compete as a Grand Mage and Sword Master?

“What are you people?”

The middle-aged man looked at the researcher with cold eyes.

“Looking at your attire, you’re one of ours, so why are you guiding criminals?”

The researcher frowned.

This was the end.

The Security Captain’s methods were cruel – those who died by his hands alone could form a tower, and he had caught the attention of such an existence.

As the researcher grew anxious, Baek Jin-woo stepped forward.

“What’s this nonsense you’re talking about?”

“Do you know what kind of existence the Black Dragon is?”

“…”

The male Security Captain said with a sneer.

“It’s not an ordinary dragon tribe from the continent. It’s a dragon tribe that flew here from outer space. Thanks to the shackles attached to it, we can safely research it, but the moment we release that thing, it’s straight to continental destruction.”

Oho.

So that’s how it was.

“Aso.”

– Yeah.

“Take care of those two as well.”

– Got it!

Swish.

As Aso lifted his wooden sword.

Snicker.

The Sword Master made a mocking sound.

“So you’re not just criminals but crazy criminals. With just that wooden sword, you think you can…”

In the middle of speaking, Aso’s wooden sword struck down on the Sword Master’s crown.

“Gasp!”

Shocked, he immediately tried to draw his sword, but.

Craaaaaack!

There was a cracking sound.

The real sound of a head being cracked open.

‘Ah.’

The researchers squeezed their eyes shut.

How much would that hurt?

Or maybe it wouldn’t hurt?

With that kind of sound, the head would already be cracked and dead.

As expected.

Thud!

The Sword Master collapsed to the floor.

Foam was bubbling from his mouth.

‘But what exactly is that little kid’s identity?’

She cuts through Chimeras so easily, and my god, she took down a Sword Master with a wooden sword?

The Grand Mage seemed to have the same curiosity.

“Wh-what the hell is your identity!”

She immediately tried to cast magic.

Whoooosh!

But Pokryong’s surging flames swallowed all her magic completely.

Crack!

It was the same.

Aso’s head-smashing technique!

– How dare these weaklings act so rudely toward our father!

Nice.

Great line from Aso!

‘Wow.’

‘Amazing.’

The researchers were also impressed.

At the same time, they made a resolution.

From now on, no matter who came, even if the Empire’s emperor himself arrived, they would unconditionally side with Baek Jin-woo.

‘That girl called Pokryong and that little kid Aso. Just those two stepping forward are already this powerful… How strong must the others be?’

‘Where on earth did these out-of-spec beings come from…’

‘Ah, is today the end of the Cadia Empire?’

While the researchers clenched their fists tightly, Baek Jin-woo was slowly walking toward the Black Dragon.

– Master, will you be alright?

“Yeah.”

Actually, he wasn’t sure if he’d be alright.

‘It’s the Destruction Dragon, isn’t it?’

My own summoned creature that I lost back then!

If there had to be someone who could approach it, it would be him.

It had to be.

“Everyone stand guard. Don’t let anyone approach this place.”

– We obey your command.

East, west, south, north.

Summoned creatures spread out in all four directions.

– Grooooooar!

Jakgeo and Dampir took the east.

– Then let’s go to the opposite side! Doldoli, come here!

– Grrrk…

Ramba and Doldoli took the west.

– Pokryong!

– Yes?

– How about we mages team up together!

– Sounds good.

Pokryong and Mayeo took the north.

– Then let’s go south, Eila.

– Fufu, shall we?

Aso and Eila took the south.

Somehow, excluding Hunkyo, they had formed a perfectly balanced formation.

“A rebel has approached the Black Dragon! Kill him!”

“He’s beyond rebel level! He’s already a terrorist!”

“Bring the Chimeras!”

“Zarban! Wake up Zarban!”

For something supposedly top secret of the Empire, why were there so many researchers and guards…

Attacks kept coming.

Some of them shouted desperately in truly terrified voices.

“No! Don’t touch those shackles!”

“If you do, we’re really in big trouble! Not just the Cadia Empire, but the entire continent will be destroyed! We’ll all die!”

“Damn it! If you’re going to commit suicide, die alone! Why are you all going crazy!”

But those voices didn’t reach Baek Jin-woo’s ears.

It was already a destroyed continent anyway, so what if it got destroyed once more?

Besides.

‘The Destruction Dragon was originally mine.’

When the owner wants to take back what’s his, who can stop him?

“Poor thing.”

Swoosh.

Baek Jin-woo caressed the glass tube.

It wasn’t the imposing size and majesty he had seen on his phone before, but was only about the size of ten adults huddled together.

Uh… Compared to other animals.

About the size of a moderately heavy elephant?

– Grrr.

The Black Dragon slightly raised its head and stared at Baek Jin-woo.

Its eyes clearly looked exhausted.

“Of course you would be. You just fell onto this continent while sealed, but humans captured you and have only been using you as a test subject. Right?”

– Grrrrrk.

The red eyes looked at him, then soon lowered again.

A being that seemed frustrated by something, crushed by long periods of humiliation and oppression.

Was it yearning for freedom?

“Hunkyo.”

– Yes.

“Break the glass.”

– Yes, Master.

Shing!

Hunkyo drew his sword and gathered his strength, then struck the glass tube without hesitation.

Crash!

The thick reinforced glass shattered with a trembling sound, as if crying out in injustice.

Glass fragments scattered as they fell to the floor.

– Grrk?

The Black Dragon raised its head again.

Perhaps excited by the sudden sign of freedom, sharp breathing sounds echoed.

“Next are the shackles.”

The Sword Master had said so.

These shackles weren’t made by them, but had been attached since it flew here from space.

He didn’t know what story lay behind it, but usually such shackles were placed on dangerous beings.

‘However.’

There was no fear in Baek Jin-woo’s expression.

Only intense determination and conviction!

“Cut them.”

– Yes.

Kaang!

As expected, the shackles were sturdy.

But they weren’t unbreakable.

“E-Excuse me, sir!”

A researcher who had been watching from the side couldn’t help but intervene.

“Hm?”

“If you release that… we might really have to fight that Destruction Dragon. And if the Destruction Dragon’s seal is broken… it might be on a completely different level from the existing chimeras. After all, chimeras are just incomplete test subjects.”

“I know.”

“…”

“I’ll just make it submit.”

Where in the world can you get something easily?

Of course, with just Mayeo’s ritual, I could safely extract an adult Destruction Dragon in three years.

But?

Not only could I not wait three years, but there would definitely be a huge difference between that Destruction Dragon and the one obtained here.

‘Whether it’s awakened or not.’

Since I can receive the choice of awakened summoned creatures when the Tower of Trials ends.

The Destruction Dragon obtained this time could become an awakened Destruction Dragon!

“Actually, that’s even better.”

Kaang!

Hunkyo’s sword continued to strike down on the chains.

“Whatever happens. If only that guy can awaken… And if it can recognize me transcending time and space.”

Wouldn’t that be fate?

I don’t think I’ll lose.

Having drawn the Destruction Dragon before, I know better.

Objectively speaking, if I compare the current Pokryong and Aso with the Destruction Dragon?

Pokryong and Aso have the upper hand.

Kaaang!

The first shackle was broken.

– Grrrrrrrr.

The Black Dragon’s roar began to grow louder.

A small confusion and unfamiliar emotions flickered in its eyes.

“The only one who can bind you is me.”

Kaaang!

The second shackle was broken.

– Kryalarararararara!

With its arms regaining freedom, the Black Dragon raised its body.

‘R-Really.’

‘He’s actually releasing that thing?’

‘Ahhh, ahhhhh!’

The researchers squeezed their eyes shut in terror.

And soon after.

Kaang, kaaang!

The shackles binding its legs were also released.

When all the shackles were completely undone.

Kugugugugugu…!

An overwhelming aura filled the space.

The moment when a being freed from ancient seals took its first step toward the world.

– Kryalararararararara!

[Be careful.]

[‘Black Dragon’ (S-rank) looks at the continent with murderous eyes.]

Toward the continent.

That tremendous rage began to run wild.
