Chapter 140 Hatch (6) (1/2)
But it seemed like Leonte had been played as well.
Well, considering Leonte’s personality, loving power and pleasure, he would’ve easily gone over for Vieira Dune’s seduction. Although he might not know it.
And Leonte continued his explanation.
The Emerald Tablet was an ancient document that had the directions for how to make the Stone of the Sage.
Walpurgisnacht and Cheonghwado had secretly worked together to attack the dungeon on the 69th floor, and Leonte and swiped away the item that Vieira Dune was supposed to get.
And he worked on it behind Sword God’s back.
“Then where is that Emerald Tablet?”
[I…..broke…..]
Yeon-woo lightly clicked his tongue. He would’ve been able to tell with his Draconic Eyes if the Emerald Tablet was real and if Vieira had dones something to it.
“Then tell me about what was on the tablet.”
[Then…..if I tell you…..will you kill me?]
“You’re already dead. Well, I’ll let you disappear.”
Leonte became brighter. And he revealed the process to create the stone that was on the tablet.
The process was simpler than he thought.
But there was a lot of intense and suspicious information.
He asked when there was something he didn’t understand. And he organized what Leonte told him in his head.
Meanwhile, his Dragon’s Knowledge was activated.
[The Dragon’s Knowledge, Hokma, has opened. The information is being searched for within the database.]
[There are 8 related items to the Stone of the Sage.]
[Other related search terms are being inputted for a wider range of information.]
The Dragon’s Knowledge was so large that it couldn’t be used at once.
So the information that the ancient dragon, Kalatus, created, was divided into different sections so the contractee could approach the information depending on how they progressed.
So they could slowly understand the information as they went. In order for the contractee to understand, like a sponge that absorbed water, slowly and in order, until they finally reached the ‘truth’ at the end.
The condition to view information was only after new knowledge was attained from the outside. It was the same way Draconic Eyes had slowly expanded before he received his Dragon Body.
‘With the base of mechanical magic, with alchemy on top. It’s so widespread. It’ll take an entire day for me to get through everything.’
And Yeon-woo was able to tell if Leonte was telling the truth or not.
‘It’s fake. With the slightest of a lie mixed in.’
He didn’t know who added it, but he thought that they had quite thoroughly interfered with it. And he was also curious.
Who was the person that made the Emerald Tablet? And what was Vieira Dune trying to achieve by making this?
Yeon-woo thought that there was a chance that Leonte had lied.
So he forced Leonte to speak with his Holy Fire in hand, Draconic Eyes wide open.
He checked over and over again to see if there was something that he was lying about.
And when he got all the information he could, Leonte’s mind was already destroyed that dangerously shook.
He could probably come back alive if dark energy was inputted. But he didn’t plan on making him suffer anymore.
He considered forcefully binding him like Boo or Ka, but he thought it would be useless having someone like him.
“Boo.”
Fizz.
[Please say. The orders.]
Ashy fog combined and Lich Boo appeared.
“Eat.”
[Thank. You.]
Boo bowed and spread his mouth open. And he headed over to Leonte, who was still tightly wrapped around with shadows.
[W, Wait…..! You said you would kill…..!]
Leonte belatedly realized what Boo was trying to do and shouted. Absorb. He completely absorbed his soul and stole his knowledge and powers. With this, he couldn’t even dream of reincarnation.
But Yeon-woo, who didn’t plan on letting him go easily anyway, just ignored him.
Rattle. Rattle. As the sound of teeth clashing together was made, the sound of Leonte’s screams became louder.
And Boo’s shadow darkened. Leonte was someone who became a Martial God in Cheoghwado. Being able to swallow him completely was able to advance him further.
Boo took small bits as if savoring it. He wasn’t just eating the soul, but also his vestiges and knowledge.
Yeon-woo looked at Leonte, who was wasit-in, and turned back to look at Bahal.
Bahal just trembled looking at Leonte. The Holy Fire slowly destroyed him too.
He just wanted to escape from this pain.
“You know what I’m gonna ask, right?”
So Bahal hurriedly nodded his neck. He thought Yeon-woo’s mind might change so he blurted everything he knew.
As fast as he could. So he could comfortably disappear.
Yeon-woo was able to know the truths about the war between Cheonghwado and Red Dragon.
As he continued to listen, it became more absurd.
“The Summer Queen’s Dragon Heart is broken, and she needed the Stone of the Sage to fix it?”
Bahal weakly nodded his head. Like he didn’t have the energy to use his vestige anymore, his soul wasn’t able to use his power anymore.
It was the result of Yeon-woo’s torture.
And because he had already swallowed Holy Fire multiple times, he was almost ruined beyond the point of return with dark energy.
But Yeon-woo had already figured out everything he needed to, so he didn’t worry about it.
‘So the Summer Queen that’s called the Last Dragon is now in danger.’
And it was an aftereffect of fighting with his brother.
‘So he had been able to get an attack in. It’s a relief he wasn’t stupidly on the receiving end.’
Yeon-woo grinned unintentionally. And it turned into a smirk towards Cheonghwado, Red Dragon, Summer Queen, and everything else.
For the bastards who fought each other without even knowing where the stone was.
It was hilarious how they were played like retards. Because he had the stone that they were looking for.
From the beginning to the end, they were in Yeon-woo’s palm.
And if he used this truth well, he could play them for a little while longer.
‘If she participated in the war with a broken Dragon Heart. She must be anxious right now. Since she used the last of her magic power.’
Dragon Heart wasn’t simply a heart of Draconic species. It had the foundation to provide magic power, and it was the origin of the strength that allowed the user to be an outstanding being.
If such a thing was broken. If it was hard to fix it.
‘It can easily flip the board.’
Yeon-woo sparkled his eyes and wet his lips with his red tongue.
‘It would be nice to leak this information somewhere. Devil Army? Elohim?’
Red Dragon had a lot of enemies.
It was obvious Elohim would be dancing with joy if they heard, because they extremely hated that the Red Dragon and the demon-serving Devil Army was above them.
Yeon-woo thought that he needed a way to secretly spread this information. Without revealing himself.
‘And I should keep quiet for a while. Since I might be caught.’
The Summer Queen had a sharp brain since she was a Draconic specimen too. She would clearly notice that this war had been started by someone.
‘First, I’ll complete the Stone of the Sage, and focus on climbing the floor. And I have to look for Kalatus.’
Torturing Bahal, Yeon-woo some of his plans.
One of them was to finish the stone.
He didn’t plan on using it since it was the result of many lives, and it would probably be uncontrollable.
Knowing that Summer Queen considered the Stone of the Sage a replacement for her heart, and that there was a room that had materials to finish the stone changed his mind.
