Chapter 409: Dragon’s Presence!
Chapter 409: Dragon’s Presence!
It was time to end it all…
Jack and pet happily sailing? Hell no!
┣ [Lv150] ANGRY! Young Fire Dragon, Volcanic King 🔥☠️ ┫
And that’s when it happened! The playfulness that had been inside the creature’s eyes all along suddenly disappeared! It was suddenly replaced by extreme ANGER!

The elementals? They all collapsed.
The lava? It calmed down as if scared!
Yet, it was nothing compared to what they faced,
Nothing could have prepared Jack and Moon Moon for what followed. The eldritch roar carried so much energy and authority that they lost themselves in it completely!
This bloody wasn’t like before, FAR from it!
[Warning! Affected By Dragon’s Presence!]
[Warning! Affected By Dragon’s Presence!]
[Warning! Affected By Dragon’s Presence!]
[…..]
All their training while hiding in caves and covered by Aura Concealment auras? It hadn’t amounted to jack shit! They had seriously trained to resist the dragon, but IT had never seriously roared.
But now that it had, they lost control of their bodies. So this was a dragon, eh? Compared to such a mighty being, they were mere weak sacks of worthless flesh. Compared to this, they were flies.
Compared to this magnificent being, they were simply lacking, so damn lacking. Yet, they were lucky that a dragon spoke to them…
“𝕯𝖔 𝖞𝖔𝖚 𝖚𝖓𝖉𝖗𝖘𝖙𝖆𝖓𝖉 𝖓𝖔𝖜?
𝖄𝖔𝖚’𝖗 𝖋𝖑𝖙𝖎𝖓𝖌 𝖆𝖓𝖉 𝖕𝖔𝖎𝖓𝖙𝖑𝖘𝖘
𝕱𝖆𝖈𝖎𝖓𝖌 𝖆 𝖉𝖗𝖆𝖌𝖔𝖓? 𝕱𝖔𝖔𝖑𝖎𝖘𝖍 𝖙𝖍𝖎𝖓𝖌!”
Fleeting and pointless? They really were. As for foolishness, the biggest fool in the world would have had to bow down had he been there. All it took was a roar, and they had been brought down!
CRAZY! This was simply crazy! Yet, they wholly accepted their defeat.
No, Jack had known since the start… Dragons were invincible early game. A single Brave and his pet? Who was he kidding? Actually, no, he wasn’t even that Brave.
He was Brave because he could respawn.
He was Brave because he was crazy.
He was Brave… except he wasn’t.
“I’m really pitiful, aren’t I?”
“𝕿𝖗𝖚𝖑𝖞, 𝖆𝖓𝖉 𝖋𝖔𝖔𝖑𝖎𝖘𝖍!”
Just like that, the show was over. Calm and order returned to the world, an order that had predated even the existence of humans. After all, this wasn’t their world. They were merely parasites in it.
A small ark, no bunch of plank-like rocks, slowly drifted toward a certain dragon, one who didn’t even have to move, simply guiding the lava with a lazy claw.
That’s when a chuckle escaped Jack.
He was just like a rubber duck in a bath, a mere toy.
Then again, looking at the gargantuan maw, he was bread to an eldritch duck.
Looking toward Timber City, a soft prayer even escaped him.
“Sorry you all, your king let you down…”
“Sorry I wasn’t stronger…”
“Sorry for everything…”
At this moment, the weight of the world rested on his shoulders. All the gentle city folks were waiting on him, all the orphans were praying for his return, and all the maidens left without their idol.
Jack didn’t even have to speak a word. It was all visible on his face.
The Dragon quickly realized it, too, its scales trembling.
T-This….. Would be the BEST meal ever, hehehe!
“Goodbye, world, this is it.”
The flow guided them inside the creature’s mouth, each fang looking tower-like, yet so damn sharp! This would soon be their fate for sure, jack already full of regrets.
┣ [Lv150] Salivating Young Fire Dragon, Volcanic King 🔥☠️ ┫
Seeing him defeated pleased the dragon so damn much!
“𝕱𝖔𝖔𝖑𝖎𝖘𝖍 𝖍𝖚𝖒𝖆𝖓, 𝖆𝖓𝖞 𝖑𝖆𝖘𝖙 𝖜𝖔𝖗𝖉𝖘?”
“I do have regrets…”
At this moment, Jack’s aura suddenly seemed to flicker a bit, as if coming to terms with its imminent death. That flicker was so wild that even the dragon got curious, drinking his next words.
“If a man follows after me. Please tell him… Dragon.”
“D-Dragon?! What kind of dragon?!”
“Dragon deez nuts all over—”
[?!?%????
[Host Isn’t affected?!]
[What the Hell is Happening?!]
But Jack didn’t give a damn about the system, NOW! He rushed at the Dragon’s pink blackish tongue and summoned EVERYTHING he could!
— Fire and Wind Magic? Yes! 🔥🌪️
— Self-Destruction Magic? Sure! 💥
— Skeletal Summons? By the Dozen! 💀
— Throwing Pickaxes? Why the F not! ⛏
— Corrupted Water Pearl? Spam it 300% 💧
— Demon King’s Weapon Aspect! HELL YEAH! 😈
Jack went ALL OUT!
This fucker had dared call Moon Moon worthless?!
“Go fuck yourself, you shitty lizard! You’re useless! Your entire bloodline’s useless as hell! Oh god, a fire dragon in a volcano? Can you get less original? You’re as dumb as scaly!”
As he released ALL he could muster, dark yet glowing energy crackled around him, only becoming stronger and stronger until it EXPLODED!
And that’s when it happened…
A blackish tongue severed completely!
A Dragon trashing in unimaginable pain and shame.
Burning Red Blood bursting all over, menacing to drown them!
Yet, even as they were swept by the current, seemingly heading for the dragon’s stomach as mere snacks, there was a sudden reversal.
“𝖀𝖓𝖋𝖔𝖗𝖌𝖎𝖛𝖆𝖇𝖑! 𝖀𝖓𝖋𝖔𝖗𝖌𝖎𝖛𝖆𝖇𝖑! 𝖀𝖓𝖋𝖔𝖗𝖌𝖎𝖛𝖆𝖇𝖑! 𝖀𝖓𝖋𝖔𝖗𝖌𝖎𝖛𝖆𝖇𝖑! 𝖀𝖓𝖋𝖔𝖗𝖌𝖎𝖛𝖆𝖇𝖑! 𝖀𝖓𝖋𝖔𝖗𝖌𝖎𝖛𝖆𝖇𝖑! 𝖀𝖓𝖋𝖔𝖗𝖌𝖎𝖛𝖆𝖇𝖑! 𝖀𝖓𝖋𝖔𝖗𝖌𝖎𝖛𝖆𝖇𝖑! 𝖀𝖓𝖋𝖔𝖗𝖌𝖎𝖛𝖆𝖇𝖑!
“Hehe, Demonic Legion, we’re also unforgettable!”
“𝖄𝖔𝖚’𝖗 𝖉𝖆𝖉! 𝕯𝖆𝖉! 𝕯𝖆𝖉! 𝕯𝖆𝖉! 𝕯𝖆𝖉! 𝕯𝖆𝖉! 𝕯𝖆𝖉! 𝕯𝖆𝖉! 𝕯𝖆𝖉! 𝕯𝖆𝖉!”
“And you’re too talkative, you shitty Lizard, can’t you just….” But that’s when his face suddenly distorted in shock. With the dragon distracted, he could feel what lay below.
What the freaking hell was this?! This was an entire civilization, wasn’t it?! What was it doing in a goddamn volcano?! But a second later, Jack couldn’t help but tremble.
This was especially true as he heard the Dragon’s next words…
𝕹𝖔, 𝖉𝖆𝖙𝖍’𝖘 𝖙𝖔𝖔 𝖌𝖔𝖔𝖉 𝖋𝖔𝖗 𝖞𝖔𝖚! 𝕾𝖚𝖋𝖋𝖗! 𝕾𝖚𝖋𝖋𝖗! 𝕾𝖚𝖋𝖋𝖗! 𝕴’𝖑𝖑 𝖌𝖎𝖋𝖙 𝖞𝖔𝖚 𝖙𝖔 𝖙𝖍𝖒, 𝖘𝖔 𝖞𝖔𝖚 𝖈𝖆𝖓 𝖇 𝖙𝖍 𝖉𝖔𝖜𝖓𝖋𝖆𝖑𝖑 𝖔𝖋 𝖞𝖔𝖚𝖗 𝖘𝖕𝖈𝖎𝖘, 𝖍𝖍𝖍𝖍𝖍!
Death was too good for him? That shitty Dragon would never know how true this was! But before Jack could even react, a lightning-fast claw suddenly entered the maw and impaled him?!!
The feeling of being impaled…
The deathly worry of a nearby wolf…
Then the seemingly free fall that followed?!
“What is this?! Don’t tell me that—” Before Jack could react, the creature suddenly started laughing manically as it stared at the abyss below, one that couldn’t be “seen” thanks to the lava!
“HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!” And as Jack heard that laugh, he suddenly felt goosebumps all over his body. Wait, wasn’t he about to be cast away for real?!
And that’s when Dragon threw him in the damn lava below?! — Only to send a very innocent little wolf a second later after him. What was this all about?!
Either way, they were FUCKED! Quite so…
