Acquired the EX-class attribute ‘Transcendence Copy’

94 – Three Requests

The rank of a spell is proportional to its complexity.

This was a proposition that the blue dragon Droea thought of as common sense. And it was one of the thoughts shared by human society, and by extension, all objects that can use magic. Like, ‘When an apple ripens, it falls to the ground.’

However, such a theory was denied right in front of my eyes. The existence that refuted it was neither a dragon like himself nor a god with a higher rank than a dragon. He was a human being.

“Yeah. It’s hard to visit home once.”

A man who removes his eyes from his robe.

The man, whose appearance is so ordinary that one would forget it if he closed his eyes, sat down with a good-natured face. Even though he wasn’t even encouraged by the owner.

I can’t believe there is a human who acts so confidently against a dragon.

No matter how you look at it, it doesn’t feel like a human being. I’d rather be a god disguised as a human.

However, the energy I felt from Iza was human itself. If it’s a god, can it even disguise something like this?

His head was pounding. Droea silently sat across from the man. I didn’t have the talent to organize his messy head with my own thoughts.

This is a dragon rare.

As humans envision, it is a treasure cave filled with all kinds of dazzling treasures wherever the eyes reach. However, Droea’s dragon rare was a place where you could feel the coolness beyond the plainness. The furniture that filled the cave is only as much as you need for living.

Minimalized rare, which would be uncomfortable for people who pursue convenience, was distinctly different from the dragon rare described in children’s books.

Droea was not a dragon who was interested in collecting treasures. This human-looking man didn’t seem to find such a gap all that strange, so he crossed his legs in his seat and gestured toward Droea.

“We have guests, do you have anything to drink?”

Natural behavior as if you have been here many times.

An arrogant attitude as if he were the owner.

At that appearance, Droea couldn’t hide her absurdity and embarrassment. She was so good at hiding her emotions that she showed agitation on her face.

What would other dragons do if they saw a human like this?

It came naturally to me. However, even if he was a dragon other than himself, he would not be able to let go of this man’s shameless request.

In the first place, he was not tolerant of intruders either. There is only one reason why this man can act like the owner.

Because he beat himself.

Not just once, but thirteen times.

Perfect!

Droea snapped her fingers. A pair of teacups are placed on the table. Tea served when fellow dragons visit Lair. He never drank any human.

As if brazenly asking for tea, the man reached for the cup without hesitation. Perhaps, he has no doubts or worries about whether he is poisoned. If he’s a dragon-like being, is it a judgment that he doesn’t do something like that?

The more you look at it, the more unusual it is.

Droea looked at the man drinking tea informally, and recalled the fight with him.

He thought the first was a lucky punch. He thought he had won him by accident, by means of a gap in information and a stroke of luck.

Of course, he can’t take luck or coincidence enough to defeat a dragon lightly. In the first place, being able to throw a lucky punch against a dragon is impossible unless you are a human who has reached the level of a transcendent. No one could argue against this man calling himself ‘Dragon Slayer’.

-First of all, one thing you want. Please be my teacher.

-…… How did you do it?

-What if?

-How did you beat me?

-That’s not easy to explain in words. Would you like to try again?

As soon as Lovin’s words are over, the paralyzed body returns to normal. He gave the dragon another chance.

Could there be a more humiliating situation for a dragon, the embodiment of pride?

It was the same for Droea, the least of the dragons with a finite personality. It was only natural that her anger was directed at the person in front of her, who was relaxed.

And.

– Twice.

-Three times.

– Four times.

– Five times. Hey, will you do it again?

Thirteen times in total.

Even though she poured all her strength and ability, she couldn’t defeat Lov-in. Even though the front yard of Dragon Rare was almost devastated, the opponent’s robe only had a little finger cut off. Even the word complete defeat was an insufficient result.

The current situation is to step into one’s lost rare and pretend to be the owner.

As the things she couldn’t understand continued, Droea’s head was complicatedly twisted.

“Now, it seems like we’ve had enough of our body conversations, so let’s talk about what we couldn’t finish earlier. I have about three requests. The first is, as I said before, asking you to be my teacher.”

Speaks shameless words with a shameless expression and shameless voice. After thoroughly chewing on the man’s words, Droea opened her mouth with a rotten expression. Hiding her feelings has given up. What use is that in front of this man?

“A new way to humiliate losers?”

“No. I am serious.”

“Are you seriously trying to insult me?”

“I don’t know why you think that way.”

A man shrugging his shoulders and speaking in a sly voice.

Droea’s sapphire eyes pierced the man’s eyes. In my mind, I want to know the inside of this man in detail using [Characteristics]. However, he is an opponent who has defeated him thirteen times in power matches. I won’t give you a chance to use the [Characteristic].

“After defeating me thirteen times, you said you would become my disciple? I’m a dragon, but I know that’s not normal, even by human standards. Rather, are you human?”

“That’s right. He is 100% pure human.”

The man who set the teacup down on the table continued without avoiding Droea’s gaze.

“I need a teacher. To be precise, I need someone who can ‘role’ my mentor.”

The ‘role’ of a teacher is necessary. In terms of the nuance of the words, the teacher he spoke of was not a teacher who passed on knowledge, but a kind of ‘substitute’. Then this man’s request is understandable. Of course, it’s not possible to know the exact inside story.

“The role of a teacher means acting?”

“Yes. You can pretend to be my teacher whenever and wherever you want.”

“It means borrowing the dragon’s authority.”

A human with a dragon as his teacher.

Such a person never existed. If he exists, he will gain great authority by himself.

By the way, this man defeated the dragon. He is a being that never existed before, like a human who had a dragon as his teacher. He said that he did not need to find authority by having a dragon as his teacher. Because there is no authority greater than strength.

‘Am I going to take care of my authority while hiding the power I have?’

There is a high probability that there will be a complicated story related to politics. Droea understood this situation that way.

“There are conditions.”

Droea was defeated in the battle. However, she boldly set a condition.

It’s not just because of his pride as a dragon. It was because this man treated her as friendly as possible. He was able to capture that fact in giving 12 chances to try again.

At the negotiating table, the weaker side always loses the initiative.

Droea was no fool who could not bring the initiative to her eyes.

“What is it?”

“Teach me. Your magic.”

While defeating himself thirteen times, he used only three spells.

A defensive magic barrier.

Attack Magic Mana Arrow.

Special magic dispel.

From noble mtl dot com

All three are basic magic below D rank. A magic that even a wizard with no talent can learn in a week.

It is one of the most common spells in the skill book market because it is not popular.

By the way, this man had overcome himself with such magic. He defeated a dragon that handles magic better than any other race with magic.

Droea tried to destroy the man’s magic in thirteen clashes. However, without achieving anything, he repeated the same ending thirteen times.

His fighting style was simple. He protects his body with a barrier, neutralizes his own magic with dispel, and attacks himself with mana arrows. This primitive combat method, which can be explained in just one line, was not penetrated by Droea even on thirteen occasions.

This is a story that makes no sense. It was impossible to use basic magic like that.

For example, Dispel, a magic dispelling magic, is not a combat magic. Dispel is a type of cryptography. Magic is magic that reverses and deciphers passwords to break the spell.

Of course, creating a password is overwhelmingly more difficult than cracking it. In a battle where actions in milliseconds change the outcome, counter-calculating the opponent’s magic and casting a dispel is completely theoretical. For that to be possible, there had to be at least a Human And Dragon Level difference.

However, humans are on the other side, and dragons are on this side. Even if he neutralized the opponent’s magic attack with Dispel, it was not enough, so the opponent overpowered him with that magic.

Then, there are two assumptions that can be inferred.

The opponent’s ability overwhelms you that much.

The opponent’s magic has a Special That you don’t know about.

Droea erased the possibility of electrons. A skilled person who overwhelms himself as a dragon with magic?

Cannot exist.

No, it shouldn’t exist.

In the realm of magic, even masters of black magic who seek the middle ground cannot overwhelm the dragon. So, isn’t it possible that Lee, a human being, is possible?

Droea’s thoughts naturally flowed to the latter. This man’s magic is another magic that looks like basic magic. So, knowing that, he will never let himself be defeated by this man.

“Don’t you know Barrier, Mana Arrow, Dispel?”

“… It can’t be that kind of basic magic.”

“Is it basic magic?”

A man tilting his head with an innocent face.

At that shamelessness, Droea shook her head.

‘Is that how it comes out?’

Well, it’s a magic that beats dragons. Of course, I can’t teach it so lightly.

‘This guy. You have no boundaries for me at all. If that’s the case, I just need to get the information out slowly.’

The fact that I had to conduct a small information war against humans was a problem, but I couldn’t help it. It was clear that this man had beaten him. And without information about his magic, the past would repeat itself over and over again.

‘Let’s do this guy’s favor right now.’

After organizing her thoughts, Droea opened her mouth.

“I understand the first request. It doesn’t seem like a difficult request.”

“Then, the second request….”

The man pulled a thick piece of parchment from the pocket of his robe. It’s not just parchment, it’s a magic parchment that you can squeeze a lot of text into. In the human world, it is mainly used when writing official documents or thesis.

“You are reviewing this thesis.”
