Chapter 55
Eldrin and Demir (4)
“We have to finish everything within a week.”
Eldrin said.
“Since our awakening, the effectiveness of the Ban beads is disappearing.”
She glanced back.
There, the dragon was sealed, emitting light while roaring [Kkeuaaaaa!].
Demir nodded beside her.
“That’s right, as you know, dragons are terribly strong. The moment the Ban is lifted, everything will be over.”
“G-Great Ancestor.”
It was then that Dagnar cautiously raised his hand.
Demir tilted his head in his Skeleton form.
“So, are you saying the world will end in a week?”
“Huh? If that were the case, why would I break the seal and appear right in front of you?”
His expression seemed to briefly convey, ‘Were my race always this stupid?’
But the expression soon disappeared.
Eldrin was right next to him.
He must have thought he was spitting on his own face.
“T-Then, is it not?”
“Well… it could be or it could not be, right? But what’s certain is that we have to work to make sure it doesn’t happen.”
Demir then looked at me.
“You.”
“Yes?”
“There’s no time. You know it too. Our awakening is only temporary.”
“Yes, I know.”
The System told me.
“The time is exactly one week. After that, our power will scatter again. We’ll return to our Soul state. And the dragon’s Ban will be lifted accordingly.”
“Then what should we do now?”
“We must kill the dragon before that.”
Demir gripped his hammer tightly.
“The Giant Dragon dominates this world, but the world can also be said to dominate the world.”
“What does that mean?”
I tilted my head.
What kind of pie-in-the-sky talk was that?
