Chapter 182


    ‘Huh?’


    He remembered reaching the sky, but when did he lose his mind? When Jung Si-woo came to his senses, he had be a dragon. The dragon wasn’t flying in the sky but folding its wings and lying on the ground. It was just taking up space in the dark sky.


    ‘The wings of the dragon are enormous.’


    Jung Si-woo realized that the power to hold a dragon with huge weight and presence in the sky stemmed from none other than his wings. The mana from the wingsmunicated with the whole body, making the dragon a faster and stronger being.


    [The contract has beenpleted.]


    When Jung Si-woo shuddered with the power of the dragon, words that suddenly came out of the dragon’s mouth spread all over the world and beyond. It was Jung Si-woo, whose heart sank because he thought he was aware of himself in the dragon’s body, but it was never like that. He and Jung Si-woo were one.


    [Yes, this is the beginning. A war, or the beginning of its demise.]


    Did someone answer the dragon? He was sure someone did. Even if he was in the dragon’s body, it didn’t mean he was more capable in it. It was clear that someone had sent a message to the dragon in a way that Jung Si-woo couldn’t detect.


    [Some ces will already be over; some won’t sense the beginning until it’s over. Some ces will start too slow, others too fast.]


    Jung Si-woo couldn’t figure out who the dragon was talking to, so he decided to just do what he could. He needed to adapt to the dragon’s power, remembering how it handled Mana and its body, as he always did when he dreamed of it. He was particrly focused on the wings: how wingsmunicate with the whole body and how to handle them. He figured out the structure and remembered the way mana flowed.


    [Someone will lose what is not to be lost; some will gain what is not to be gained. It is all because I exist, and all men will be broken, and fate will roll in an irreversible direction.]


    Jung Si-woo was indeed a holder of outstanding talent. Even Marina Bissett, who was the strongest human on Earth, may not be able to adapt to the dragon’s body, but he had been desperate to try and discipline his mind and mana control.


    [No need for resentment. I will support them all. No life, no death, no possibility. Even the past and the future.]


    The end wasing. Having grasped the fact, Jung Si-woo concentrated as much as he could and epted everything. He already knew that continuing to deny him meant nothing. To be truly free, he had no choice but to acknowledge and ept what he was and rise above it again!


    [So I assure you.]


    There was a crack. While the whole dream was being smashed, the dragon’s voice was heard faintly.


    [I will win no matter what.]


    It was the moment when the limits of the whole world, or Jung Si-woo, would be broken. Everything that constituted the world heard the rupture of the moment but didn’t know where it came from.


    “Ah.”


    Lastly, Jung Si-woo was kicked out of his dream and opened his eyes. Jung Si-woo’s shoulders, which were covered with ck and brilliant scales, were torn apart, and the wings of light, which were darker than darkness, soared from inside. The wings, which were so huge that you couldn’t tell where they had been hidden, spread out more than a few meters. More epic than that of a Wyvern, wings as powerful as that of a dragon.


    [Underground yer Skills, Chaos Wing (Passive) Awakened. The wings, which originated from Mana and have been reborn as reality, boosted the whole body’s energy and made the body lighter. It’s possible to fly. It will be possible to enter the Sky Castles Dungeon.]


    [Chaos Wing has be Lv5]


    After gaining wings, Jung Si-woo briefly hung from the edge of the Sky Castle. The extortion was certainly a sess. Not only the yer’s authority, but he was now robbing and epting all the information he could get from Sky Castle. The record of Sky Castle following the dragon’s dream, he thought he would have fainted at this point if he hadn’t trained his mental strength with the ghosts, but now he couldn’t make even a cry. He gritted his teeth and epted everything.


    “There he is, no way…”


    “Jung Si-woo is right. Oh, my God.”


    By then, the humans gathered on the artificial ind noticed the disturbance, and everyone was watching him. It must have been quite shocking since the Sky Castle that continued to emit overwhelming Mana became quiet at that moment.


    “He even has wings. Are you saying he can get into the Sky Castle now?”


    “What the hell…both sides add up to more than ten meters. I’ve never seen wings like that…?”


    “He’s not a yer…it’s like looking at a monster.”


    The civilians and the yers on the artificial ind couldn’t stand up to him and whispered among themselves. Jung Si-woo was converging all of the dragon’s power into the body as soon as he woke up from his dream, but he couldn’t hide all of his sudden increased presence.


    “Oppa!”


    [Oh, my.]


    A littleter than that, Soo Ah-rin and Caina’s phantom bike reached the Sky Castle. Jung Si-woo’s huge presence also suffocated them, but they soon overcame it and approached him.


    “Oppa, are you okay?”


    “…I’m okay. Whoo.”


    As Soo Ah-rin approached him and put a healing spell on him, Jung Si-woo finally managed to answer her. Soo Ah-rin’s sacred power contained warm energy in itself, which had a significant effect on the body and mind.


    “It’s because so much information is being leaked at once, but now I know roughly. The structure or history of the Sky Castle, its members and…even the information in the dungeon.”


    “Well, it’s usually cooked in there…”


    Soo Ah-rin’s eyes turned toward the building that upied thergest site in the area: the Great Library of Sky Castle was one of the ces where yer candidates received the most education. Test dungeons were usually in there, too.


    “I’ve robbed them all of them. It made me faint for a moment, but…it’s all right now.”


    “I can’t believe we’re robbing them.”


    It was so easy to say when Soo Ah-rin was nkly thinking, Jung Si-woo suddenly let go of his hand on the edge of the Castle. But his body didn’t plummet. Without pping his wings, his body was naturally floating in the air.


    [Oh…]


    It was worth concentrating on the dragon’s wings in his dream; his flight was perfectly natural. Caina looked at it and spoke with admiration.


    [The dragon’s wings aren’t physical propents but magic. It’s said that just having it speeds up the cycle of Mana, strengthens the body, and gives one the power of flight…that’s exactly as he said.]


    “Oh, it’s like a yer’s wings!”


    “I guess it’s the other way around.”


    “Opposite…?”


    Jung Si-woo took a short deep breath, slowly flying to them after adjusting his magic to reduce his wings’ size appropriately. When Soo Ah-rin tilted her head, Jung Si-woo exined with a bitter smile.


    “I mean, the wings of the yers are modeled after the dragon.”


    “Ah…!”


    [Is that so?]


    While Soo Ah-rin was astounded, Caina took it calmly as if she were expecting it.


    [The dragon was already a legend in my time. It had only been said that he was hostile toward the gods, and the Sky Castle is a system against God. Wouldn’t it make sense that a dragon was involved?]


    “Come to think of it, it’s obvious…”


    Soo Ah-rin had never thought about it before and nodded, pretending to be convinced. Jung Si-woo smiled and fluttered his wings lightly. His body gently soared into the air.


    “Then let’s go save our friends.”


    “Don’t tell me you’ve got dungeon information…”


    “Follow me.”


    As soon as Jung Si-woo pped his wings again, his appearance disappeared from the party’s sight. Caina pulled the throttle in bewilderment, btedly realizing that he had only soared away too fast.


    [Let’s keep up!]


    “Khah!”


    Soo Ah-rin grabbed Caina’s waist with a sound that a maiden of her age should never make. Caina had boosted the performance of the Phantom Bike by maximizing the skills she mastered since she was a Death Knight!


    “Whoa, that’s amazing.”


    He expected it, but the Wind Run skill matched the wings very well. As the Mana springing from the Chaos wing was expressed with the skill, even Jung Si-woo, who had excellent vision, was scared of his speed.


    ‘The power of the wind, and the power against the wind. I’m looking forward to the moment when the two forces are in perfect harmony.’


    After a short period of flying, Jung Si-woo stopped pping his wings. At the end of the sky road from the Sky Castle, there was indeed a huge ind of wealth. That was where Jung Si-woo was aiming.


    [38 Level Dungeon: Hummingbird Paradise]


    [32 yers. Cannot be entered at this time]


    “No matter how closely you look at it, it’s not a small dungeon.”


    [I can tell by a nce.]


    When Jung Si-woo looked back, there was Soo Ah-rin, whose eyes were spinning, and Caina, who was sighing calmly while holding onto the bike.


    [More than that, this is outrageous. I’ve never heard of a dungeon like this. I’ll believe you even if you call it the Sky Castle.]


    The dungeon was essentially a subspace, and the outward appearance was only part of the dungeon or the illusion that the dungeon intentionally showed. However, the appearance of the dungeon gave a rough estimate. In the course of Crescent’s growth, the existing structure of the dungeon must have beenpletely reversed as the threat that the gods could pose to the Earth was added.


    [But the difference is too big.]


    “It’s the most difficult and broadest dungeon on Earth. And I don’t think it has anything to do with the rankers who entered.”


    Marina Bissett and Seria Wilson, Lee Seo-hee, Lee Kang-hoo, and John Smith. The dungeon where they were gathered wasn’t insufficient to be the concentrated target of God. Even if a God did something here, Jung Si-woo was confident to deal with it easily.


    “Huh.”


    Thanks to the details of the Chaos Tail, Chaos Scale, and the Chaos Wing, Jung Si-woo, who had Dragon’s Sense, could detect the power of God moving inside the dungeon. And that, as it happened, was…


    “Ha, this is fun.”


    “Wow, Oppa, your face is so scary…”


    Soo Ah-rin instinctively shrank away when a smile formed on Jung Si-woo’s scaly face. He grinned and put his hand on the entrance. His inherent capability and the system of the Sky Castle collided, and a space of the size of a human being soon opened for a moment while creepy light shimmered around them.


    [Entrance Avable]


    “Come on, let’s go—there’s so much else to deal with.”


    “Yes.”


    [I’m only with my master to the best of my ability]]


    When Jung Si-woo flew into the dungeon, Caina and Soo Ah-rin followed. Shortly after the dungeon epted them, the gap in space disappeared without leaving a trace, but the feast of hell had already begun.
