I am not a returner Episode 313:
Faded Promise (5)
“No... that.”
Ha-eun suddenly hid behind Oh-jin’s back like a cat, as if she felt burdened by Kelion, who was kneeling in front of her and bowing his head.
First of all, she understood why the dragon people reacted so harshly towards her.
Suddenly, people I had never seen in my life came rushing towards me, bowing their heads and talking about me being a savior and a dragon maiden, asking me to save the fate of my family. There was no way I could not be embarrassed.
“please.”
Kelion bowed his head at Ha-eun’s feet and pleaded with a trembling voice.
After the dragon god fell into a long sleep.
The Dragonian Kingdom gradually began to walk down the path of destruction.
They were born to serve the dragon from birth.
Just as ants dying after losing their queen, they also lost their focus as ‘dragons’ and were running towards catastrophe.
“We... need a savior.”
Transparent tears flowed down Kelion’s cheeks.
Without the dragon’s protection and knowledge, the dragon people cannot withstand the magical power remaining in their bodies and die.
In the days when Cailus was around, the runaway magic power was somehow suppressed by the stigmata of the constellation Dragon.
Now that he is dead, there is no one other than the sleeping dragon god who can save the dragon race heading towards destruction.
“Over the past hundred years... countless dragon people have died, unable to withstand the surge of magical power.”
I remember.
reminds me of
A girl who smiled brightly, a boy who played energetically, a young man who bravely wielded a weapon, and an old man who wisely led the kingdom.
dead.
Writhing in pain, unable to control the runaway magic power.
“I... all of that...”
I had no choice but to watch.
I waited for the dragon god who would not wake up and cried out for salvation that did not come.
“....”
Ojin looked down at the sobbing Kelion and made a bitter expression.
‘Is this the reason why the dragon race suffered in vain from the demon race’s attack?’
There may be a reason why the Majin army was so strong.
In the first place, the kingdom of the Dragon people gradually lost its power and weakened over a hundred years.
All the demons did was forcefully remove oxygen from the dying patient’s mouth.
“Are there no other dragons?”
Oh Jin asked, remembering the Heavenly Dragon he fought before coming to the Demon World.
If the existence of a dragon was essential to save the dragon race, there was no reason for it to be a dragon god.
“Dragons...”
Kelion chewed his lips as if swallowing bitter medicine.
The wrinkles covering his old face were distorted in sadness.
“Most of them are already dead. Even if it’s alive, it’s hiding in the lair and not coming out.”
“...Most of them are already dead?”
“That’s right.”
Dragons were a powerful race complete with their very existence.
Who on earth drove these monsters, each of which was a strategic weapon, to destruction?
“One thousand miles.”
Is it you again?
An unpleasant sensation spread in my mouth, like chewing sand pebbles.
Oh Jin let out a deep sigh and lowered his head.
“The evil god revered by the Demon Race... The Heavenly Demon killed the dragons.”
“Did you kill him yourself?”
Kelion shakes his head.
Unless the Heavenly Demon killed him directly.
“I heard that you ordered a ‘snake’ to kill it.”
“....”
Cassia Colgrande.
A woman who, after being saved by the Heavenly Demon, had her consciousness controlled by his ‘lies’ and became a puppet.
‘Did you do something like that while you were in the Demon Lord?’
Come to think of it, I’ve said something like that before.
While living as a puppet of the Heavenly Demon, he has had countless blood on his hands.
I already knew this, but I never would have guessed that the slimy blood on her hands was mixed with the blood of dragons.
“....”
Suddenly, a memory with Cassia came to mind.
The rooftop of a hospital in the dark.
A woman who said she would leave to make atonement with sad eyes as if she would shed tears at any moment.
In a distant sense of shame and self-reproach.
With only the longing to not be abandoned.

After focusing the attention of the demons on that area through bait, Ha-eun and Kelion had to infiltrate Lair.
‘But we can’t send just the two of us.’
What if Ha-eun is attacked while she is leading the Dragon God’s soul into her body?
Unless Kelion was in a situation where she could be completely trusted, someone who could protect her had to go with her.
‘I have to go with you.’
In terms of simple force, Isabella is still stronger than him.
He had a transcendent power called Black Heaven.
Although there is a risk, he is the one who can protect Ha-eun more safely in an emergency situation.
The problem is that if you fall in, the ‘bait’ side becomes that much more dangerous.
“I’ll take the bait.”
Isabella raised her hand willingly.
“Are you going to be okay?”
Serving as bait against a group of over a hundred demons and tens of thousands of demon beasts was a big risk, even for Isabella.
“yes. “It may be difficult to fight directly against an army, but it is quite possible to attract attention and run away.”
“...But we still need more people.”
No matter how powerful she was, it was impossible for Isabella to attract the attention of an army that occupied an entire city on her own.
“We will also increase our strength.”
Kelion clenched his fists with a look of firm determination.
Ojin looked back at him and warned in a low voice.
“...I will die.”
Isabelaya Ilsin’s military power is excellent, so she will be able to escape even if she is chased by the demons.
But other dragon people.
“Even if you are lucky and escape, most of you will die.”
“....”
Kelion’s expression darkened.
After contemplating for a moment, he opened his mouth with a faint smile on his wrinkled face.
“I was prepared to die.”
The old dragon man stood up, feeling the stigmata on his left chest.
“Hehe. Still, isn’t this the place we’ve lived in? There is no greater glory than being able to protect it by shedding blood.”
That’s what I said, though.
Kelion’s eyes were dark and sunken.
“....”
Ojin let out a short sigh as he looked at the old dragon race elder who was strengthening his resolve.
For a group, having a place to live is just as important.
Sometimes to the point where you have to sacrifice your life to protect it.
“There are ways to reduce the number of victims.”
“...What method?”
“You just need more bait than one.”
Ojin pointed to three places on the map spread out on the table.
It was around a huge circular building where the captured Yongin people were tied up.
“It will cause trouble in three places in total.”
“In that case....”
“Yes. “If a commotion breaks out here, the demons will think they have come to rescue the captured dragons.”
In that case, their forces would have no choice but to disperse towards the building where the Yongins were being held.
“In that situation, if you run to the outskirts rather than the city center, the chaos will be even greater.”
From the Demon Race’s point of view, the force that caused the disturbance should naturally have come to the building where the Dragon Race was captured, but since they ran to the wrong place, there was bound to be confusion.
“There will still be victims, but at least the chances of survival will increase.”
“But even if the entrance near the castle gate is okay, the other two locations are inside the kingdom... How do you plan to infiltrate troops here?”
“I’ve been thinking about that.”
There was a way to attract the attention of the enemy without sacrificing the Yongin tribe.
“...Thank you.”
Kelion lowered his head with a trembling voice.
Not only did he help awaken the dragon god, he even thought of a way to minimize the sacrifices of the dragon people.
It was difficult to think of this as consideration from a stranger I had only met for a few hours.
“Is it okay if I ask one question?”
“yes.”
“...Why are you helping us like this?”
It wasn’t something I should say as someone who asked me to save my family.
In the case of the decoy operation, it was actually a problem that could have been passed on to the Yongin tribe.
Originally, the more lives you put into it, the more effective the bait was.
“...well.”
Oh Jin chuckled and shrugged his shoulders.
Suddenly, Cassia’s face, distorted by tears, crossed my mind again.
He muttered in a low voice as if he was talking about someone else.
“Maybe I want to change.”
With a person named ‘Kwon Oh-jin’.
