Drakey made Junhyuk fall into the swamp and started laughing.

You should die there!
he said and turned to run away.
Gongon went after him, shouting,
Stop!
However, he didn’t have any items and he couldn’t keep up, so Drakey was putting some distance between them.
Junhyuk watched Drakey run away while he tried to get to the stepping stone. He still had to wait on his teleport’s cooldown, so without that, it didn’t look like he would get out of the swamp. He made his way slowly and heard a soft voice.
[Aktur killed Lugos.]
Junhyuk turned back and saw Aktur running toward him after having dispatched Lugos. Gongon had gone after Drakey, so Junhyuk could only rely on Aktur at that point, but he was still very far away.

Aktur!
Junhyuk shouted, and Aktur ran toward him, extending his hand. The bandage launched forward, flying toward Junhyuk. He grabbed it, and Aktur pulled him out. Junhyuk was able to get to the island and started running. Each of the other members of the allies had killed one, so it was his turn to kill an enemy. Gongon was running in front of him, but he was lagging behind, so Junhyuk picked him up and continued.
Aktur looked at Junhyuk and laughed,
He is having a hard time.


You can’t call this a hard time.

Junhyuk could kill Drakey with the Spatial Slash, but he ran away. It would be a problem if the Spatial Slash failed again.
Junhyuk sped up. Unlike Gyulsean, Drakey didn’t seem to have invest much on his movement speed. Junhyuk was inching closer, and he inhaled deeply.

I should get closer.


How?

Instead of replying, he teleported. The gaped shortened considerably, and Junhyuk threw Gongon, yelling,
Go!

Gongon flew him, ready to headbutt. Drakey turned sideways, dodging the attack. It looked like the absolute dodge had worked again. The cooldown for the Spatial Slash had ended.

Escape this again!

Junhyuk used the Spatial Slash, and dove forward, but the absolute dodge didn’t work that time.

Ugh!

The Blood Rune Sword flashed, and a gaping hole appeared on Drakey’s neck. After the shockwave, Junhyuk teleported again. His sword cut through Drakey’s neck again, on the opposite side of the first slash.
Drakey started disappeared, and Junhyuk spoke a few words,
If your absolute dodge is not at 100 percent, don’t flaunt yourself.

[You killed Drakey and earned 3,000G.]
Junhyuk looked at Drakey’s corpse and said,
Let’s go finish the quest.

Gongon, who was standing next to him, complained,
We should have completed the quest first and then killed him.

Junhyuk smacked his lips.

We didn’t have time.

Gongon looked at Aktur.

It takes time to complete a quest?

Aktur smacked his lips and said,
It usually takes a while, so we should try to prevent the enemies to complete their plans first.

Junhyuk nodded and looked at the dragon.

Let’s finish the quest, and then we’ll go look at some items.

The dragon raised his head at the mention of items, and Junhyuk caressed Gongon’s head and said,
Let’s finish the quest first.

Junhyuk walked toward Hatma and pulled out the Golem’s Core while Hatma opened his mouth.

Put it inside my mouth.


This is not for eating!


Don’t blabber.

He placed the core inside Hatma’s mouth, and the sorcerer chew it. Then, Hatma smacked his lips and showed them his tongue. Junhyuk looked surprised.

The Golem’s Core tastes really good.

Junhyuk shook his head.

You ate everything…


Are you complaining?


No, I’m not.

Hatma’s muscles twitched, and branches restraining him broke off. He strained to break free from some of them, gathering his hand to his chest, and said,
I’ve been called by thunder. I, Hatma, will give you power to move faster than wind and strike harder than thunder.

[The high-ranking sorcerer’s buff is applied. For one hour, your movement speed and your critical hit rate increase by 10 percent. Critical hits deal an additional 30 percent damage. If your enemy kills you, he will take the buff.]
After being buffed, Junhyuk looked at Hatma. The roots restrained the sorcerer again, and he looked at Gongon.

Hatchling, when you return, go and ask about me.


He-he-he. Right! I will certainly ask.

Hatma was wrapped by the roots and disappeared, and Gongon looked at Junhyuk.

He talks so big about himself!


He is very confident in himself. When you return, you should ask about him.


When I return, I will ask about many things.

Gongon grinded his teeth, and Junhyuk shrugged.

Aktur, what are you going to do?


Right now, I am saving up money.


Then, I’ll take Gongon with me. What about you?

Aktur thought for a moment and said,
Before our enemies reincarnate, I will go and gather the lizardmen. I feel like I could sweep through our enemies with one push.

Junhyuk looked at him and asked,
Is it OK to win so easily?


Doesn’t matter. We lost ten times straight.


Right.

Junhyuk didn’t say anything else and started on his way to the Dimensional Merchant. Gongon, who was running behind him, asked,
We aren’t in a hurry?


No.


Hm.

The dragon clicked his tongue, but Junhyuk ignored him while letting him keep up. He couldn’t leave Gongon behind.
Considering what had happened that far, Gongon had earned a spot on his team, so they ran together and got to the Dimensional Merchant’s portal.
Gongon looked at it and frowned.

What!?


This place sells items.


This portal looks suspicious.


What are you talking about?


This portal is twisting dimensions. How is that possible? A dimensional portal doesn’t make any sense here.

Junhyuk saw Gongon’s surprise, laughed and picked up the dragon while heading inside.

Argh!

Gongon screamed while going in, but nothing happened.

Do you know how dangerous a dimensional portal is?
the dragon shouted at Junhyuk once inside and got a shrug in response.

This place is safe.


Don’t make me laugh! It’s a big deal to open a dimensional portal, but it’s not possible to keep it open this long…!


Why are you so noisy?
Someone suddenly exclaimed, and Gongon turned and frowned.
Bebe was caressing his chin, just sitting there.

You are just a yeti!

Gongon made to headbutt him, and Junhyuk tried to stop him, but he couldn’t stop a power activation. Gongon flew across the air, but Bebe grabbed his head. Bebe had big hands, and Gongon’s head was entirely covered by one of them.
Bebe lifted Gongon by the head and looked into his eyes.

Hey, hatchling.


My name is Gongon.

With his head gripped by Bebe’s hand, Gongon attempted to kick, but he couldn’t reach Bebe.
Bebe looked at Gongon and then Junhyuk.

This is the new champion?


Yes.


You didn’t make the contract yourself.


What are you talking about?!
Gongon screamed, and Bebe lost interest and let him go.
Boom!
Bebe made a slight movement with hand, and Gongon flew off, hitting a wall. The wall crumbled, and Gongon fell on the ground. The dragon had high defense, so he shook his head and transformed.

Flaunt yourself some more!

Transformed, Gongon ran forward, but Bebe raised his hand slapped the dragon’s face, hard.
Slap!
Gongon spun in the air and hit another wall. Junhyuk was astounded. Bebe was stronger than had imagined, and he felt he had been right all this time for not challenging the yeti.
Gongon grabbed his face and looked at Bebe, who just laughed,
Baby. You don’t know who comes in here, so lower head and stay quiet.

Gongon was angry, and he got up. Junhyuk stood in his way and said,
Gon!


Step aside!


Gon!

Gongon inhaled deeply and said,
Junhyuk, I like you. So, step aside.

Junhyuk extended his hands toward him.

This place is the Dimensional Merchant. If you have gold coins you can buy anything. You’ll like it here.

Gongon touched Junhyuk’s shoulder and said,
I better like this place.


I told you, they have everything here.

The dragon was no longer angry and went back to his regular size. Gongon walked over to Bebe, jumped on the counter and stared at the yeti.

If I ask the dragon lord about you, will he know you?

Bebe laughed.

I’m Bebe. Go head and ask him about me.

Gongon nodded said,
Fine. Your things, show me what you got.


How much gold do you have?


Why? Does it cost just to look?

Bebe smiled.

No, that’s not the case. Go ahead and look around.

Bebe opened a book for the dragon, and Gongon’s eyes sparkled.
While he perused the book, Junhyuk went over to Bebe.

Can I see some items?

Gongon was enjoying himself, and Bebe pushed a plate forward. Junhyuk put his hand on it, and 49,440G popped up.

What do you need?

He thought for a second. He could upgrade his armor again with 40,000G, and his armor would get stronger with each upgrade. However, after some time, he shook his head. He wanted to settle his problems in South Korea first.

I want another mask.


A basic mask?


Yes.

Bebe pushed the plate forward.

What are you trying to do?


I just need it.

Junhyuk put his hand on it, and the total decreased by 1,800G. After pulling out a mask, Bebe asked,
What kind of face do you want?


A slightly fat and dumb face.


Right.

He tried on the new mask, and it seemed just right. He looked at himself, very fat, and laughed.

I like it.

If Sungtae wore it, no one would recognize him.

Sure. So far, everyone likes my masks,
Bebe said while handing it to him.
Junhyuk put the mask away in the Spatial Bag, and Gongon said,
You have good some stuff here.

Bebe looked at him.

You are well-spoken for a hatchling.

Junhyuk looked at Gongon, but the dragon just shrugged his tiny shoulders.

I learned from my father.

Bebe laughed and said,
Why are you holding on to 100G?

Gongon was confused, but he said,
The Andes Tribe candy. I heard about it from my father. Give me one.


Payment first.

Gongon paid the price, and Bebe got the candy. The dragon put it in his mouth and his eyes widened.

Holy shit! It’s the bomb! Give me a hundred of these!


Gon!
