Magic is Learned for Nothing – Episode 199
# 199
Why is the Demon Lord Here? (2)
The Dragon’s Lair.
To be precise, it was the lair of the Red Dragon, Preitia, who had emptied it to catch Legion.
Of course, Legion had no idea that Preitia was after him.
He came with the mindset that he would run if there was a dragon, and if not, he would be fine.
He also thought that he could endure somehow since Dreyzer was with him. Plus, he was a little curious about how dragons decorated their homes.
He couldn’t close his mouth as he looked at the golden lair. Countless masterpieces hung on the ceiling and walls.
Many of the famous paintings drawn by genius artists were here. It was hard to put a price on them, but if he had to, he could buy more than half of South River in the capital.
However, Legion was ignorant of paintings.
If he knew even a little about art, he would have taken it all and put it in his subspace.
And if there was no room in the subspace?
He would have dragged out Lich Mamon and left him here, sweeping away all the masterpieces.
He was only interested in one thing!
The dragon’s items and jewels.
Just dismantling the golden walls… It was enough to double his magic power, but even Legion couldn’t bring himself to do it.
-The gold in that wall is low in purity. It contains a lot of steel. Unless you refine it, your intelligence will increase by 1 faster than your magic power.
Mark scared him after analyzing the components.
As Legion nonchalantly looked around, Sharonz fidgeted and finally couldn’t hold back her words.
“Hey, let’s get out of here. Seriously, what’s wrong with you? If we get caught, it won’t end with just dying.”
Sharonz trembled and grabbed Legion’s arm, pulling him.
“Kuh.”
Her fingernails broke because she couldn’t handle the weight.
Sharonz stared at Legion in disbelief. What the hell did he eat to be so heavy?
“Why are you so scared?”
“Aren’t you scared? It’s a dragon. A dragon. The strongest creature in the Middle Earth [a common fantasy setting].”
“Well, I know they’re strong. I admit it. But it’s not here right now. There’s no need to be so scared.”
Oh, God of Darkness! I think this bastard doesn’t know what a dragon is. If he wants to die, he should die alone. Why me too?
Sharonz felt dizzy.
She staggered and leaned against the wall. Suddenly, the wall went in.
-Aeeeeeeeng!
A siren blared loudly.
-Intruder alert! Intruder alert!
Legion and Dreyzer glared at Sharonz. What the hell are you doing?
“What did I do?”
She shouldn’t have come here in the first place.
These guys aren’t just bold. They’re crazy. They wouldn’t come to a dragon’s lair and act like they’re sightseeing unless they were insane.
“Oops!”
“Oh, dear!”
The crazy Legion accidentally touched an expensive statue.
The statue staggered and fell backward. Dreyzer could have caught it, but he just stared blankly. It’s not mine. It’s not my fault, was his expression.
Crash!
The statue was completely shattered, leaving only the head.
“Who are you!”
Perhaps because of the siren, the guardians who were guarding the lair appeared. They rushed at Legion and Dreyzer with murderous intent.
The guardians were made up of ogres and trolls.
Red Dragon Preitia had forcibly increased their intelligence with magic. Thanks to that, they could freely use human language, but….
Paak!
Paaaaak!
Paaaaaaaak!
They were beaten just enough not to die and had to tell them everything about the lair.
The guardians knelt down and shed tears.
“Who the hell… are you people?”
“Us?”
“This is the lair of Red Dragon Preitia. Aren’t you afraid of her wrath?”
“Hmph, I have never been afraid of anyone since I was born.”
“Who are you to say that?”
“If you hear my name, you will faint.”
“Please tell us.”
“I am Don Dechman, the Butcher of Death.”
The guardians gnashed their teeth and engraved the four letters ‘Don Dechman’ in their minds.
We will definitely take revenge!
“To provoke Don Dechman’s temper. You crazy bastards.”
Dreyzer adds fuel to the fire.
He drove the guardians into terror by saying things like, ‘Don Dechman’s anger is more terrifying than Red Dragon Preitia’s,’ and ‘Don Dechman likes dragon steak. Too bad there’s no red dragon.’
And he tied the guardians’ arms and legs tightly.
In the end, Sharonz had no choice but to join them.
Among all the races she had seen in her hundreds of years of life, these were the craziest.
She seriously wondered if she should set foot in the Vampire Kingdom with them.
She didn’t think His Majesty the King, her scary brothers, and the ministers would tolerate them.
But she had come this far with them, and she couldn’t send them back. Or would they even go back if she sent them back? She shouldn’t have mentioned the jewels. If she sent them back, they might go steal the kingdom’s treasures.
My life is getting twisted.
Sharonz tied up the remaining guardians’ arms and legs and had no choice but to say the same thing as Dreyzer.
“Don Dechman, you guys don’t know how scary he is. If it were me, I would have run away as soon as I heard his name.”
“Let’s go.”
Legion said.
“Where are we going? Mr. Don! De! Chman!”
Sharonz said, putting emphasis on the syllables of Don Dechman.
“I heard there’s an item warehouse down here.”
“No, surely… you?”
“It’s okay, it’s okay. It’s not me, Don Dechman is borrowing it. In other words, renting.”
What is this crazy bastard saying?
Sharonz quickly stood next to Legion and said, trying to maintain as much self-control as possible.
“Hey, let’s not touch that. If we touch that, we’re all really going to die.”
The image of a red dragon descending on the Vampire Kingdom flashed through her mind.
The red dragon’s 9th circle magic and breath explode. Countless vampires in the kingdom are reduced to ashes and disappear. Vampires were also seen escaping. They run away with their children in their arms. They were all crying.
Because of whom?
Because of these crazy bastards.
“Hey, why are you like this?”
Legion poked Sharonz in the side with his elbow. Sharonz felt like her ribs were breaking.
“Let’s just go and take a look first. We’re just going to look around.”
You crazy bastard, as if you’re just going to look around.
* * *
“What. She likes it the most.”
Legion laughed in disbelief.
Sharonz’s eyes rolled back. There were hundreds of legendary items, not just one, right in front of her. It wasn’t just a warehouse. It was a treasure trove.
Especially this.
The Blood 4-Piece Set.
Consisting of armor, gauntlets, a necklace, and a ring, this was a legendary item made exclusively for vampires.
It was also the exclusive equipment of the Progenitor Blood D. Adidas, one of the ancient vampires. It had appeared in vampire history books, but it had disappeared a long time ago.
Who would have thought that such equipment would be here?
Sharonz, who had been shouting, “You must never touch anything here!” had disappeared.
She was the first to put on the Blood 4-Piece Set.
“Wow! This is amazing!”
She was very gleeful. The fear that the Red Dragon might invade the Vampire Kingdom and burn everything, including girls, the elderly, and the old, seemed to have disappeared.
“Check out the other armories too.”
“Is that okay?”
“Of course, we’ll leave enough rent. We can use it to our heart’s content and then return it.”
“That’s right. That’s how it should be. We’re just borrowing it for a while and then returning it, right?”
Sharonz had already lost her mind.
After putting on the Blood 4-Piece Set, golden light seemed to appear in her eyes.
In comparison, Legion didn’t find anything he particularly liked.
Almost everything was a legendary item, but… he already had a myth-grade staff. Although he couldn’t use it, unless he had a staff that was better than that.
There were some great staffs at first glance, but they didn’t catch his eye.
And there was no Tarantula’s set item either. That set item is very elastic. Its defense is far superior to any other legendary item.
So Legion turned his attention to jewels.
As expected of a dragon.
There were also a lot of jewels.
Among them, he swept all the rare jewels into his subspace. Many of them were jewels that would be dismantled and made into crystals. He had promised Dreyzer, so he had to give them to him. But he couldn’t just produce any crystals.
He had to give him something good.
Legion was thinking to himself that he was a very commendable owner.
Dreyzer was given one item.
It was an item labeled ‘Shampoo of the Gods.’ It’s actually an item that doesn’t exist in the human world.
Long ago, when Red Dragon Preitia was young, she visited the Celestial Realm with the Dragon Lord and bought it at a 1+1 sale at a mart [a buy-one-get-one-free deal at a supermarket].
Although it was a 1+1 item, it was a top-quality product that could never be seen in the human world.
Even if you wash your hair with it only once, your hair will become as smooth as silk. The subtle scent flows up to 3 kilometers away. All races are captivated by the smell and kneel down and praise it.
It lasts for a whole year with just one shampoo.
It is a shampoo with absolute power.
I want to have it.
In the past, Dreyzer would never have been interested in the Shampoo of the Gods or anything else. But not anymore. Whether voluntarily or involuntarily, he had to live with his hair braided in pigtails. If he had to live like this for the rest of his life, he wanted to have good hair.
He reached out his hand towards the ‘Shampoo of the Gods.’
But as the subspace opened, wasn’t it the bone hand that grabbed the shampoo first?
It was Lich Mamon.
As long as the owner was nearby, he could come out of the subspace at will. He pulled the shampoo into the subspace.
Dreyzer also grabbed the shampoo.
They held the shampoo and confronted each other.
“Let go. Bonehead.”
Dreyzer said.
“Finders keepers. I grabbed it first.”
“Don’t be ridiculous. That’s called cutting in line. I was going to grab it just now.”
“The person who grabs it first is the winner. Who told you to be slow?”
“Stop talking nonsense. Let go now!”
“You let go.”
“Is this bonehead crazy? It’s me. It’s me. Dreyzer.”
“Dreyzer or whatever. So what? I’m Mamon. Lich Mamon.”
The killing intent of the two holding the shampoo instantly increased.
It was the killing intent of a 7th circle mage and a 7-star warrior. Also, both of them were extremely aggressive people.
It was a killing intent that was on a different level from mages and warriors of the same level.
Kukukukukung!
The lair vibrates. The ceiling, which had been plastered with gold, shook. Countless statues could not withstand the vibration and fell to the floor and shattered.
Nevertheless, Dreyzer and Mamon did not stop their killing intent.
They had no intention of giving up this shampoo.
It was the Shampoo of the Gods.
From their point of view, it was no different from an SSS-class item. When else would they have the chance to meet the Shampoo of the Gods? This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
“You’re really going to die, bonehead.”
“You must be acting up because you trust your master. I don’t care about puppies like you.”
A puppy? Me?
Dreyzer was speechless. It seemed like he had to fix this skeleton’s habits.
“First… let’s start with a punch.”
Dreyzer threw a punch like lightning. His magic-filled fist flew towards Lich Mamon’s face.
Kukukukukukung!
Dreyzer’s fist stopped right in front of Lich Mamon’s nose.
An invisible, faint barrier had already been created. It was a much stronger barrier than Iron Shield.
However, Dreyzer’s powerful attack!
It couldn’t be easily blocked.
Jjeojjeojeojeojeok-
Lich Mamon’s barrier shattered like glass shards. At the same time, a spell burst from Lich Mamon’s mouth.
“Dark Thunder! 5 consecutive shots.”
Black magic unfolded. The empty air suddenly tore apart and black lightning struck.
The black lightning fell on Dreyzer’s head.
Kwajik! Kwajik! Kwajik! Kwajik! Kwajik!
5 consecutive shots.
If it had been a normal knight, he would have been reduced to ashes and disappeared with the first attack. It was such a powerful blow that showed no mercy.
“Look at this bastard.”
Dreyzer’s eyes gradually sank.
The ominous light in Lich Mamon’s skull also deepened. His long hair fluttered wildly, unable to withstand the pressure.
Toughness and magic mixed together and soared at once.
The power quickly grew stronger. It began to rotate like a whirlwind. The surrounding legendary items were caught in the whirlwind and collided wildly.
They break and turn to dust.
Sharonz, who was startled, grabbed the wall to avoid being caught in the whirlwind. Her legs floated in the air. She had no confidence that she could survive if she got caught in that whirlwind.
Her eyes were filled with fear.
She didn’t know why those crazy monsters were fighting. She glanced at the object they were holding. Sharonz, who had good eyesight, immediately recognized what it was.
Shampoo?
I’m really going crazy.
Are they in their right minds!
Are they destroying the Dragon’s Lair just because of shampoo?
