9th Circle Lord

The change in the spirit world is not over yet. New terrain emerged as the land that caused the crack was tightly attached.

Giant rocks such as stalactites rose from fertile land.

The spiny rocks soon rose like mountains and became rocky mountains.

There were also bumpy, distinctive types of rocks, some shaped like mushrooms and stone pillars like those seen from the outside.

The color was changed as if someone had painted it. As the rock changed its appearance, brilliant jewels appeared.

A deep blue sapphire sea appeared, and finely ground brown diamonds made up the white sand.

The dark sky has also changed.

A silver-colored mineral covered the hot spring, and it was clear that Misrill.

Luther murmured blankly as he watched the changing world.

"It's like a bolt of money.”

It seemed that he could buy the entire continent just by taking off and selling parts of the world he saw.

The harmony of colorful jewels made the world richer.

Observing the changes in the spirit world, the ground was bubbling in front of him and his existence appeared.

The body was round and the face was a strange triangular shape.

The center of the face split in half and the pupils appeared.

The eyes delivered a voice to Luther.

You saved us.]

Luther asked.

"Who are you?"

I am the Spirit King of the Earth, the foundation of this world.

"You were the one who heard the deep echoes from the ground.”

That's right. A long time. I was in pain for a long time. If you hadn't helped, this world would probably be gone. I express my deep gratitude and respect to you.]

At the words of the earth, the spirits around them lowered their bodies and bowed their heads.

Luther asked.

"So you're cured now?"

Better than before. Your energy, it's incredibly pure. What the hell is your identity?]

"It's human."

[Human?]

The voice of the earth that I was asking back is strange.

It's amazing how strong a man can be.]

"Isn't there any exception?"

[You're not wrong]

Laughter flowed out of my voice.

Then you're a special human being. I have no idea how strong it is. Never below the dragon.

The Spirit King knew the Dragon.

Luther showed curiosity.

"Can you compare me to the Dragon?"

Of course. You have become human, but you have gone beyond human power. Your manna is pure and powerful. Rather, it is better than a dragon.]

Luther nodded at King Jeongnyeong's evaluation.

"I suppose so."

No matter how much the dragon was at the peak of Manna, they were not much different from themselves.

Like the dragon, it was a manna body and also dealt with power.

He was convinced of his ability, which he had felt since he defeated Georges, through the evaluation of the Spirit King.

Luther left his thoughts behind and asked what had happened to the spirit world.

"Anyway, what happened? What happened to the pain?"

It's because of the war with Dragon.]

"Dragon?"

The half-moon Luther kicked his tongue.

"Everywhere you go, you're a mouthpiece.”

Starting with High Elf Drexia, dragons were always mentioned whenever they encountered an unknown existence.

"Why did you go to war with Dragon?"

It was because of the Elf. Dragon tried to subordinate the Elves to them, and the Spirits fought together to protect them.

"Results?"

[As you can see, it was a crushing defeat. I couldn't help it.]

The Spirit King explained.

We have not been able to exert proper power in your world of manna. But dragons were different. They were powerful, and the four spirits, including me, fought in person, but they couldn't win.]

"Well."

Luther was surprised at the fact that the Dragon and the Spirit King fought directly.

But the past is the past.

He wondered what the Spirit King would do in the future.

"What are you going to do now?”

King Jeong-ryeong answered firmly.

Stand up, and fight.]

"Are you going to fight Dragon again?"

Luther did not understand the spirit king's determination.

"If you fight again, the same thing will happen again."

[I can't help it]

King Jeongnyeong revealed his fate given to them.

The world of spirits is a disconnected world. If you don't get a manna from your world, it will collapse even if you stay still. The reason why the afterimage of defeat lingered and struggled with pain was because there was an outside mana. If you don't get supplied with manna, you'll die.]

I didn't know about this in the spirit world.

Luther, who was listening, nodded.

"It's inevitable for survival."

I have a favor to ask.]

"Please?"The spirits of the elements like me will be in the same position as I was before. Save them.]

Luther didn't like it.

"So. You're going to fight the Dragon in return?" 

The battle against the Dragon is also extremely reluctant to Luther.

If they were forced to bump into each other, they would never want to be involved with anything like dragons until then.

The Spirit King explained.

Don't get me wrong. We want to survive, not revenge. Your world and the spirit world are almost cut off now. Stay still, even if we've recovered.The situation has become the same as before. So I need your help.]

"But why do we need spirits of other attributes?”

[If Dragon appears, we have to fight together]]

Luther was displeased.

"I've helped you, and you're getting ready to fight the dragon. You're not going to fight yourself, for the second time you're working together. We need someone who can use the power of the spirits. Like an Elf."

The Elf was then ruled by the Dragon as High Elf Drexia said.

Luther thought that King Jeongnyeong's long-cherished desire was different from the direction he wanted to go.

There's nothing to worry about.

Luther flatly refused.

"I don't want to go through Elf's words. You don't have to fight dragons on purpose in the first place."

King Jeongnyeong had a different idea from Luther.

You have no choice but to fight the dragon.

"What do you mean?"

Dragon is lazy but also curious. Aren't you curious why we fought the Dragon?]

"Why?"

It was out of curiosity. They subordinated the elves just out of curiosity and destroyed the spirit world. Their curiosity is doomed.

Luther was amazing.

"Just out of curiosity? That's why they attacked you?"

They don't know what peace is. We wanted coexistence, but they wanted conquest. What we've been through, we've never said not to go through what we've been through.

Luther's expression became hard.

His existence has already been known to the world through Georges.

If what King Jeong-ryeong said was true, it was clear that he would try to subdue himself as Georges did.

"I didn't know Dragon would be so belligerent. But why would such a presence leave humans alone?”

Human beings are already dominated by powerful men equal to dragons. Dragons can't do anything about it.]

Luther's eyes glistened.

The Spirit King seemed to know the truth related to Georges.

"Who is that?"

I don't know who you are. Because we didn't have a relationship with humans. But it's clear that they're powerful, because dragons can't leave humans alone.]

He is a spirit king who had no contact with humans.

Luther was in agony.

If a series of events experienced by the king of spirits were not to be traced back to himself.

Luther assumed the situation.

What would a dragon do if he tried to give himself down?

Of course we should fight.’

There's nothing to worry about.

I've had enough of being attracted to someone in the past.

But even now, it was hard to say that he would be swayed by the dragon's tricks.

Luther took the King's prediction seriously.

It is more dangerous to be invisible than to be seen. And the dragon was a little too easy.

Luther asked, raising his guard.

"What exactly is Dragon?"

The spirit king answered carefully.

[They are not satisfied]

"That means you're greedy.”

In other words, if you are greedy, you are selfish and arbitrary.

If people are greedy, they don't care about hurting others at all.

If the dragon was born with the attribute, the problem would be much bigger.

He was very likely to follow up on a series of events that the Elves and the Spirit King had experienced.

"These are troublesome things.”

He was a great admirer of the wizards, but a nuisance to Luther.

When Luther agonized, the Spirit King nailed it at all.

You have the ability to go beyond the human category. The dragon will never sit still and watch.]

"You're saying you're going to fight."

Dragon is not pleased with the rebellious. Rebellion is death.

There was no need for further conflict.

Luther believed in the warning of the Spirit King.

The influence of High Elf Drexia was the biggest.

His will brought him to this day and reached the Spirit King.

Luther murmured.

"You're meant to be.”

Spirits are symbolic to the elves.

Only they deal with spirits.

However, Heilf left a will, and through him, he became a nine-circle and was able to enter the world of spirits.

Luther smirked.

"It's going his way.”

Drexia prayed for the liberation of the Elves even as she died.The original self would not have gone out on useless things, but after hearing the story of the current situation told by the Spirit King, he lost his composure.

Luther made a decision.

"Okay, I'll cooperate."

He returned to the past due to war, but the decisive reason was freedom.

However, the dragon was the most threatening thing that seriously interfered with his freedom.

If they come, they must win. In order to do so, there was no harm in joining hands with the spirit.

said the Spirit King.

[That's the right choice] If we fight together, Dragon can't help you.]

King Jeongnyeong looks somewhat relieved.

Luther, who was nodding his head, asked because he was curious.

"But can humans handle spirits?"

The Spirit was an ability to handle an Elf. The Elf had affinity, and affinity was the most essential force in dealing with spirits.

said the Spirit King.

"At least don't worry about the spirit of the earth."

Luther smirked after his direction.

Spirits were staring at Luther in unison. The eyes were the windows of the mind, and the spirit system was no different.

The way he looked at it was full of likes.

said the Spirit King.

The Spirit will help you the moment you say you will face the Dragon.

"Will he show up when I call him?"

At least I will respond to the call, and perhaps the Spirit King of other attributes will actively help you.]

In addition to the Spirit of the Land, the Spirit Kings of each province were in a similar situation.

Since he had been suffering from pain for a long time by the Dragon, it was clear that he would actively support Luther if he said he would fight.
