Chapter 326

Extra 1. After the Great War (20)

The Adjusters faces hardened at Kim Seon-Hyeoks absurd threat.

The land had already been ravaged once by the Demon King and Chaos. Adding the Dragons rampage wouldnt change anything. The will of the world wasnt a low level opponent where this kind of ridiculous threat would work.

If such meaningless destruction could get rid of the Dragons ill feeling, then do as much as you want.

I see you havent understood me properly.

I understood it enough.

The Dragons Contractor shook his head.

No, you didnt understand me. Well, it doesnt matter anyway. Youll find out soon enough.

This unexplained ominous feeling sent chills down their backs, but with great difficulty, the Adjusters managed to shake off their anxiety. They comforted themselves as they thought that perhaps, the Dragons flames might purify the Chaos that couldnt be removed.

It didnt take them long to realize they had thought of the whole thing too easily.

The first disaster came in the form of a drought.

Although it had been polluted, the ground had still been fertile. However, it soon began to crack. In an instant, the whole land became as dry as a desert.

It wasnt just any desert either. It was a desert of death where not a single ounce of earths qi could be felt. That land of death continued to expand its territory.

Goldies main food is the earths vein and the earths qi. It doesnt seem like hes very hungry right now, but the earth dragons gluttony is no joke.

Despite Kim Seon-Hyeoks words, the Adjusters didnt move. Although the appearance of a desert created through the depletion of the earths qi was terrible, they didnt particularly care as they wondered if it was even a big deal whether it was crumbly sand or hard rock that covered the barren land that couldnt be used either way.

But even they couldnt maintain their composure in the face of the second disaster.

Hundreds of water columns soared high into the sky and disappeared in an instant. That was the beginning.

Their skin stung and their throat hurt so bad it was painful to breathe. It was even difficult for them to blink; it was as if their eyes had completely dried up.

It is said that water is the source of life, but what are you going to do now? Theres no more rivers or lakes here. Theres no water underground either.

Only after hearing the Dragons Contractor did the Adjusters realize what had happened. The Dragon who ruled the water qi had absorbed all of the lifes source that was water.

That wasnt the end.

Kwaaaaaaah

The sky seemed to howl like crazy and a great storm engulfed the entire world.

Oh, my God.

A moan escaped from the Adjusters lips.

It wasnt simple destruction. The Dragons had completely destroyed the foundations of the world - earth, water, sky. It was a catastrophe incomparable to the pollution and erosion caused by Chaos.

At least the Chaos had left room for demons and demonic creatures to live. Nothing could survive in this world destroyed by the Dragons.

The land and rivers had completely lost their vitality, and the sky was going crazy. It was as if it was the apocalypse.

If I destroy roughly a quarter of the continent, then even that incredible scale will become meaningless.

It was only then that the Adjusters finally realized what the Dragons Contractor had been saying.

A complete destruction that wouldnt even allow regeneration; if such a terrible catastrophe were to occur across the continent, then even the will of the world would not be safe.

The decline of the world meant the weakening of the will.

Ah

The Adjusters trembled.

The threat they had thought was absurd and by no means realistic was actually very realistic.

It was not a matter of balance. The Dragons had the power to destroy the very scales themselves.

The moment the Adjusters realized this, they understood why the world had been particularly wary about the Dragons return amongst all the other Transcendentals.

Are you, no, are the Dragons trying to destroy the world?

The Central Adjusters face was as hard as a stone as he asked.

The Dragons Contractor did not respond. But it was no different than already having heard the answer.

The Dragons did not stop the destruction. It was as if they were saying that if the world was going to continue to reject them, then they were willing to spread the destruction.

I cannot understand you. Why are you going to these lengths? Didnt the world already accept your return?

Because we never wanted that nonsensical permission.

The Dragons Contractor responded cynically to the Adjusters question.

All you have to do is continue to watch. Youll naturally understand then.

His gaze was not directed towards the Adjusters but was focused further away from them.

Youll understand the fact that you are no different from the Transcendentals gathered there; the fact that you simply took charge of the world for a while the Dragons had left.

What do you mean?

What do I mean?

Kim Seon-Hyeok glanced at the Adjusters confused face before turning to look into the distance again as he spoke.

Im telling you that now the real king has returned, the fake king should piss off.

Although the territories of the Holy Kingdom had already been destroyed, the Dragons continued to destroy them. Like the warning they had given in the beginning, a quarter of the continent was about to be completely destroyed.

Ah

The Adjusters, who were more sensitive than others, trembled. It felt as if their heads were about to explode from the world, whose laws and balance had been broken, screaming.

However, the will of the world seemed unwilling to negotiate with the Dragon Clan. And the Dragon Clan destroyed a quarter of the continent
