Reincarnated Dragon Goes to the Academy!

Chapter 210 : Vadim (1)

Hasel, who had rushed to Lucas's call, fidgeted and rolled his eyes.

"My warehouse."

"...Pardon?"

"I'm talking about the warehouse I hid."

He had definitely heard it from Aman, so how could he feign ignorance like that? He was truly shameless.

"W-what do you mean by that..."

"Hah. You're going to pretend you don't know?"

Lucas looked at Hasel, standing at an angle with one leg, as if he were dumbfounded.

"..."

"Speak now, Hasel. I'm talking about the warehouse I hid in the basement of the lair."

"..."

"Aman has already told me everything, so if you don't answer right now, I'll blow up your entire lair."

The place where Lucas was standing now was Hasel's lair.

"W-well, that is."

"Speak."

"Actually, I did find that warehouse, but..."

The way he was stuttering and hesitating reminded him of Aman.

"But?"

"I went into the warehouse, looked at the things there, and came out. But..."

"But!!!"

Lucas shouted in frustration.

"But after that, I couldn't get back in."

"What do you mean by that?"

"Literally. I tried to get back in several times after that, but I couldn't. It's true."

"How can I believe that? You didn't take all the things in the warehouse and throw them into the sea this time, did you?"

Lucas's eyes were filled with disbelief.

"Why would I do such a thing! The Lord was dead anyway, and that warehouse was as good as mine. I didn't even take anything out of there."

"Then how does Aman know that story?"

Hasel hung his head low and then continued.

"I boasted a little."

"..."

"I said there was a secret warehouse under the lair the Lord had given me. I said I would show him around soon since I had found it."

It was driving him crazy. What on earth was that warehouse!

"...I'm going crazy."

"But since I couldn't find the warehouse next time, Aman didn't believe me, saying it was all a lie. So I got more stubborn and tried to find it... but I still haven't found it."

His head ached.

"Then do you have any artifacts related to time or space?"

Now that he knew he couldn't find it, it was a foolish thing to waste time trying to find the warehouse. And scolding Hasel was also a waste of time.

"I'll look for one."

"Right. Ask the others if they have any."

Lucas pressed his forehead as if his head ached and waved his hand.

It meant to get lost quickly.

"Yes. Then."

As Hasel quickly disappeared, Aellas opened her subspace and held out a potion bottle.

"Oh dear. The Lord must have a headache too. Hurry up and take a sip."

Lucas, who had taken the potion bottle, opened the lid and drank the potion.

"Hoo. I feel a little better."

"It's a special potion I made."

"Thank you, Aellas."

"What for."

Aellas, who was standing close to Lucas, even fanned him with her hand.

"It's fine. What for."

"Actually. I also heard something from Aman."

"...?"

"I couldn't say it earlier because Hasel-nim was here..."

He had thought it was strange.

"Actually, that warehouse. Aman said he had also been in there?"

"...!?"

What was this again!

"He said Aman found Diastes's necklace there...?"

"Oh no!"

Diastes, the god of space.

He, who had sent Hora's crown to the surface to play a prank on her, the goddess of time, had had his necklace taken by Hora, and that necklace had come down to the surface.

"Damn it!"

"As soon as he saw the necklace, his mouth watered. He said it reminded him of the Crown of Hora he had used before."

"You crazy bastard!!!"

He had caused trouble again.

"So it seems he used Diastes's necklace?"

As Lucas snorted and cursed, Aellas fanned him even faster.

"Oh dear. I also think that guy is a crazy bastard. Right?"

"So that's why the warehouse disappeared. You damn bastard!"

Since Aman was already gone from the world, he couldn't even catch him and reprimand him.

"Then do you know where Diastes's necklace is?"

Since it had come to this, he had to find Diastes's necklace at least.

"Well, you see..."

"It's fine, so hurry up and tell me."

"Oh dear. If I say this, the Lord will collapse."

"I said it's fine!"

"According to what Aman told me, there was no reaction even when he used the necklace. He said it was still a warehouse?"

It was a natural story. Because Diastes's necklace, the god of space, literally moved a space.

"So?"

"So he teleported out. To try it again in another place."

"..."

He could guess what happened next without even hearing it.

"But the necklace he was holding in his hand had disappeared, and when he tried to go back to the warehouse, he couldn't."

"Hah..."

If he had used Diastes's necklace, the warehouse itself must have moved.

'Because I had put a barrier on the warehouse.'

The entire warehouse, centered on the barrier, must have moved somewhere, and since the necklace was also bound to the warehouse, it must have remained there.

'He didn't even know it was bound by a binding spell!!!'

It was an easy spell. But to think he had moved out of the warehouse without even undoing it!

"So he said he had lost both the warehouse and the necklace, and he begged me to keep it a secret from Hasel-nim."

"...How on earth did Aman find the warehouse?"

"Hasel-nim said it, didn't he? That he had boasted... he said he went to look for it as soon as he heard that."

"You damn bastards..."

His teeth ground.

This had become something that could not be found unless the god of space came.

"Damn it."

Just when he had thought things were getting a little easier, it had come to this.

"Hah. Should I just give Delladacan to the demons?"

"That won't work. I heard Eramond-nim say that if that happened, he would go and annihilate them all."

Many dragons had died.

'They must be holding back a lot even now.'

Everyone would be like that. It was as if they were holding back their patience to the fullest and keeping the demons alive without killing them.

"I understand. Because I'm also holding back a lot."

Aellas pouted her lips.

"If it weren't for the Lord and Hasel-nim, I would have gone with Abel-nim and overturned everything a long time ago. Because my father also died because of those bastards."

Aellas had also lost her father, Apre.

"And Abel-nim also lost Tene-nim, didn't she?"

"Right... I know. Aellas, you must also be very heartbroken."

"Well. It's fine. Because I was with them for hundreds of years longer than humans."

Aellas smiled sadly.

"..."

"I have no choice but to think that way. Otherwise, I would want to chase after them and kill them all right away."

"Thank you for holding back."

"Those bastards also ruined my masterpiece! You know, right? My island!"

"Ah."

The demons had come and had destroyed the island Aellas had worked so hard to create.

'And that was when the children were on vacation.'

When he thought about that, they were bastards who were not good enough even if he chewed them up.

'But I have to hold back.'

They must have also been acting under someone's orders.

'Right. That must be Yastan.'

Aellas stretched once and then stared blankly at the mana stones piled up in the corner.

"Ehyu."

"Let's rest a little. You've been through a lot for a day."

"Ah. That's right. The Lord is a human..."

Although a dragon was a body that was fine even if it didn't sleep for several days and nights, Lucas, who was a human, was not.

"Don't worry. I'm fine."

"Ehyu. Hurry up and go and rest a little. I'll also go and look for some artifacts with Hasel-nim."

"Right. Please go through some trouble."

"What trouble."

Lucas's heart was in turmoil as he looked at the faintly smiling Aellas.

'When did she grow up so much.'

Until just a little while ago, she had been a hatchling who had reeked of milk along with Amarok, but before he knew it, she had become an adult who even worried about him.

'The egg...!'

Just then, something else flashed through Lucas's mind.

"I have to go."

"Yes."

Lucas hastily teleported and disappeared.

***

'To think I had forgotten!'

The dragon who had said he was from another world.

'Did he say his name was Vadim Artis?'

His soul was in a hatchling egg.

'He said three days would be enough.'

It was a complete lie.

Although quite some time had passed since then, he had not woken up.

'Hmm...'

Lucas examined the egg again.

The egg was warm. It clearly meant that it was alive.

"Hmm..."

Lucas, who had placed his hand on the egg, was lost in thought for a moment.

'Of all the eggs, this one.'

The bright yellow light of the egg was still as brilliant as ever, even after so many years, and the black dots scattered here and there boasted a jet-black color without a single faded light.

'Lewin...'

Lucas took out the name that was buried in the back of his memories.

'Did she also become a god?'

Lewin Zarad. She had been Lucas's partner and the one he had loved.

The time when she had left was still so vivid.

That was why he had buried her name and had tried his best not to remember it. Because it was so painful.

'I miss you.'

This egg Lucas had placed his hand on was the egg born between him and her.

Although it had not seen the light of the world, it was an egg he had loved so much.

"Vadim. I gave you the thing I loved the most, so please wake up now."

He was desperate.

If it were his skills, he felt that he could open a gate for the demons even without an artifact or a holy relic.

"Didn't you say you could live for tens of thousands of years? To the extent that you pitied us for our short lives. Hurry up and come out and teach the short-lived race the secret to longevity."

Lucas muttered as if he were talking to himself at a graveside.

"You boasted that three days would be enough, so why haven't you woken up yet?"

After saying that, a smirk came out of him without him realizing it.

"Hmm... come to think of it, you're quite a liar, aren't you?"

Lucas sneered with a smirk.

'It's quite funny.'

He remembered the conversation he had had with Lewin when the egg was born.

'Did she say the egg also hears everything?'

That was why Lucas and Lewin had had many conversations with the newborn egg between them.

'When I said I would teach him a hundred ways to kill a human painfully, Lewin was horrified.'

At the old memory, Lucas's eyes became moist.

'If she also became a god, what kind of god would she have become?'

He was so curious. At that, he began to think about what kind of god would suit her.

'Hmm... what kind of god would be good...'

Just then, at the presence he felt from behind, Lucas quickly covered the egg with his body and activated a protection spell.

-Kwa-kwa-kwang!

An attack that poured out at the same time.

[It's a pity. I could have sent you away in one blow.]

Although he had turned around, holding the egg, he could not see anything.

"Who are you?"

[I'm sorry, I can't tell you.]

The unidentified being began to gather its power again.
