Raided The God’S Warehouse [EN]: Chapter 593

“Is that… a dragon?”

Se-un had chosen the golden door.

Before it, a wounded baby dragon was curled up.

It was supposedly a dragon, but judging by its wounds, one could guess how dangerous the inside of that golden door would be.

“Yes.”

Se-un approached the golden door.

Sensing someone’s presence, the baby dragon stretched out its curled body and looked up at Se-un.

“Krrr….”

It seemed to frown upon seeing the savior who had come to help.

Whether it was because dragons had arrogant personalities, or if there was some other reason, he didn’t know.

Perhaps, inside that golden door, humans were threatening the dragons.

“Even if the dimensions are different, you’d recognize this, right?”

Se-un took out an item from his chest and showed it to the creature.

It was Seol-yong’s Reverse Scale. No, now it had absorbed the power of the Dragon Lord and become a perfect dragon mark.

“…Krrr?”

The dragon was startled and instinctively pulled its head back. Then, it sniffed carefully, trying to determine the authenticity of the Reverse Scale.

He was worried that if it was a dragon from a completely different dimension than the dragons of Kaier, it might not understand the meaning of the Reverse Scale.

“Kyareung!”

Fortunately, the baby dragon soon recognized the meaning of the Reverse Scale and raised its head sharply.

Since it was a Reverse Scale containing the power of the Dragon Lord, a baby dragon would have been overwhelmed by the energy and lowered its head.

Like a puppy meeting its owner, it circled around the spot and opened the golden door even wider to welcome Se-un.

“The selection is over~ Then.”

“Ah, ah…!”

“Hic. Hicc…”

As the angel smiled and announced the end, sobs immediately poured out from all directions.

All of them were beings in need of a savior.

Since they were not chosen by the player, it was only natural that they would react like that, having come all the way here but unable to take a savior with them.

The players from the three guilds would be arriving soon, but they had no way of knowing that.

‘Even if they come, I don’t know if they’ll be able to see,’ Se-un thought.

The golden doors of the 82nd floor were constantly changing.

Just because they weren’t chosen now didn’t mean they could appear here again and be chosen by a player; they might be deprived of the opportunity altogether.

Perhaps knowing this fact themselves, everyone desperately reached out to Se-un as they were dragged back into the golden door.

Watching that scene, Se-un took a step forward.

“I have a proposal.”

“Yes? Are you going to take back your choice?”

“Kkiing?”

The dragon, about to enter the golden door, rushed forward and blocked Se-un’s path, flustered by his sudden action.

Its scales stood on end, it was so surprised.

It shook its head, telling him not to, and even pushed Se-un towards the golden door.

However, Se-un stroked the baby dragon’s head to reassure it and continued his conversation with the angel.

“No, this is the right first choice.”

“First choice? I think you’re mistaken, it’s enough to accumulate just one good deed.”

“I know. But there’s no restriction that you can only accumulate one good deed, right?”

“…Are you perhaps saying you’re going to help everyone here?”

“Yes.”

Se-un didn’t make this choice for no reason.

Even though the trials of the 82nd floor were difficult, you could gain various things by entering the golden door through this trial.

You could pick up treasures from a world that was going to ruin, or receive national treasures as a reward for helping.

You could pick up items that are hard to find in the Tower, or hunt rare monsters to obtain materials.

That was what Se-un was thinking.

“That’s impossible…!”

The angel was shocked by Se-un’s answer.

If it were another facilitator, they might have ignored it, saying it didn’t make sense, but she was no ordinary facilitator.

“Perfect!”

She was an angel.

Se-un’s actions to accumulate more good deeds were so beautiful to her.

“Not content with one good deed, but willing to fulfill everyone’s wishes! Ah, it’s been so long since I’ve seen such a saint!”

“Is it possible?”

“Of course! But, are you really okay with this? Fulfilling all of their wishes might take a lifetime, or even cost you your life?”

“I don’t care.”

“Wonderful!”

Honestly, Se-un’s level was already beyond staying on the 82nd floor.

No matter how high the difficulty was, it was unthinkable that he would fail here.

So, he was thinking of fulfilling everyone’s wishes as quickly as possible and gaining as much profit as possible.

Besides, there was one thing that came to mind.

“To think you were such a wonderful person! Then I can’t just stand by! Hmm… Ah!”

The angel pondered for a moment.

Then, she tapped her palm with her fist and smiled brightly, plucking a feather from her wing.

“If you fulfill everyone’s wishes, I’ll give you this feather as a reward!”

The feather obtained from the angel on the 81st floor.

He didn’t know what it was used for, but since it was given by angels, it couldn’t be an ordinary reward.

And for Se-un, who had been an adventurer since before his regression, collecting that feather was something he couldn’t give up.

Thinking about the situation on the 1st floor, he tried it just in case, and as expected, his prediction was correct.

“I understand.”

Se-un, who had been promised the unknown reward of a feather, nodded satisfactorily and followed the baby dragon.

The angel’s feather.

He didn’t know what it was, but he was determined to conquer it.

– Welcome to the Valley of the Dragon, ‘Drian’.

Beyond the golden door, a beautiful valley was visible.

In the distance, a waterfall pouring down from the sky was creating a beautiful mist, and further away, mountains covered in clouds from the mid-slopes were densely packed.

As befitting the name Valley of the Dragon, it seemed to be a perfect environment for dragons to live in.

“Kkyauu-”

The baby dragon, who had followed Se-un in as if pushing him.

As soon as it entered, it made a sound as if stretching and transformed its body.

‘Polymorph,’ Se-un realized. [Polymorph is the best transformation magic that changes the form into the desired race itself, different from ordinary transformation magic.]

He didn’t know if it was a transformation for Se-un, but of course, the changing form was human.

Even the appearance of a very small girl.

‘It’s not perfect. It must be less than 100 years old,’ Se-un thought.

Se-un looked at the horns on her head.

The tail was wagging behind her back, so it seemed that she couldn’t use Polymorph perfectly.

“Human! Hello! Thank you! For choosing me!”

She transformed into a human, but her posture was still quadrupedal.

Moreover, she was squatting like a puppy, wagging her tail, which was quite cute.

“My name is Marphia! Mom calls me Mapi! What about you?”

“Se-un. Jeong Se-un.”

“Se-un! Se-un! Jeong Se-un! I was so frustrated because I couldn’t communicate!”

The baby dragon circled around Se-un as if observing him.

Meanwhile, Se-un also observed her.

Although she had polymorphed, the tip of her right horn was cut off, and the scales on her tail were torn off.

Even if dragons were independent, a baby dragon of that age should be protected by its parents.

Yet, if it was injured like that, it was evidence that something had happened to the mother dragon.

“What are those scales? I felt a greater power than our mom and dad! Somehow, it smelled good from the beginning! I ignored you because you were human!”

“It’s the Dragon Lord’s scale.”

“Lord? Ah, I know! The best dragon! …Was my uncle.”

“Was?”

“He returned to the embrace of mana… just recently.”

The baby dragon Mapi, who had been hopping around energetically despite her injuries, suddenly became depressed.

Returning to the embrace of mana was an expression used when a dragon died.

This seemed to be a key point in this trial, so Se-un naturally delved into it.

“What happened?”

“Humans….”

“Are you saying humans killed the Dragon Lord?”

“Yes. Humans had been loitering around the Valley of the Dragon for a while, and then they suddenly attacked. They were very strong humans.”

“Even so, it would be difficult to hunt a Dragon Lord with human power alone.”

The dragons Se-un knew were by no means light beings.

In Kaier alone, wasn’t the Dragon Lord the one who made the Outer [Outer Gods] fall to the ground just by lightly uttering Dragon Words? [Dragon Words are ancient and powerful spells unique to dragons.]

Moreover, even if dragons lived independently, other dragons would gather around the Lord.

It was impossible for humans to hunt such a dragon with ordinary power.

However, Mapi’s expression upon hearing that story was completely different from Se-un’s thoughts.

“No, humans are strong! And violent!”

“Even if they’re strong…”

“I heard! That we’re hiding in this valley to avoid humans!”

“…Avoid humans? Not because it’s annoying, but because it’s dangerous?”

“Yes! Humans used to attack us a lot! Humans were too strong!”

The more he heard, the more it deviated from Se-un’s common sense.

In the meantime, more basic information than common sense came to Se-un’s mind.

‘There are countless dimensions connected to the Tower, so could that be possible?’ Se-un mused.

What Se-un knew was not everything.

Even the Great Library of El-Abr only had knowledge related to the Tower at best. Frankly, there were more dimensions in the world that were not connected to the Tower.

There was no way to know about those places, and what if they were in danger and temporarily connected to the Tower?

Then it was natural that Se-un didn’t know.

‘It’s one of two things. Either the dragons are weaker than I thought, or the humans are stronger than I thought,’ he considered.

In other words, the enemy in this trial is humans.

Perhaps, if Se-un hadn’t been holding the Reverse Scale, the start of this trial would have begun to go wrong, but still.

If it wasn’t for Se-un, wouldn’t this trial have become an almost impossible trial to conquer from the start, without even receiving support from the dragons?

“Uncle Balbargar used to always lie down under that waterfall! Also on top of that mountain, and on that tree!”

“Now….”

“All the adults are busy protecting the valley. I heard that Uncle sacrificed his life to give us some breathing room. But….”

“If humans attack again, then it’s really dangerous, right?”

“Yes……. Please. Save us. We didn’t do anything wrong. We were just hiding, but the humans attacked….”

“Okay.”

“Wow! Thank you!”

Having entered the golden door following Mapi, Se-un naturally had to cooperate with the dragons.

Mapi told the story as if the dragons were being unilaterally attacked, but the humans might have their own story.

But in the first place, there is no choice in the trials of the 82nd floor.

The fact that they opened the golden door and entered meant that the Tower of Babel recognized them as beings closer to good.

Se-un had to follow that principle and help them.

“First, I’ll introduce you to my dad!”

“Where should we go?”

“There! My dad is in charge of the west! There….”

“Kuaooo-”

With a loud roar, a dragon rose beyond the western mountain range.

A dragon with the same colored scales as Mapi.

It seemed to be an adult dragon since it was called Dad, but it was different from the dragons Se-un knew.

‘Small,’ Se-un observed.

The dragons he had seen in Kaier. No, they were all mature beings among dragons, so it was difficult to compare… but even so, it was too small.

Frankly, the expression Wyvern seemed more appropriate than Dragon.

“Dad!”

Kuaaaang!

At that moment, an explosion occurred in front of the dragon.

The huge explosion, as big as the dragon’s body, engulfed the dragon without fail, and the dragon, which had risen into the sky, soon fell unconscious, charred all over.

“Dadaaa!!”

It seemed that the battle had already begun.
