Chapter 88

Return of The 8th Class Mage Chapter 88

day started.

Kwang!

The dragon’s spiritual form has finally fallen over.  Although it could not use any powers, including the dragon’s language and it was already extremely weakened, being a spiritual form.  None the less, he has succeeded in knocking it over.  A dragon’s being was overcome by a mere human sorcerer.

(Tremendous.)

Then an exactly same looking dragon came down from the sky above.  At the same time, the fallen dragon’s body disappeared as if it has been evaporated.  This was a no dimensional world, everything was unreal.  Also, the dragon is a spiritual form only, as such, its physical being did not exist.

(The fact that he did not give up to the end and even achieving growth while at it.  Was it one thousand years?  The outside world must have gone through changes for sure.)

It was the dragon’s sincere compliment.

It did not make him feel too bad.

It was just that he wanted to check before receiving the praise.

“Have I shown my worthiness?”

(Worthiness?)

“Did you not say that to defeat you was a proof of worthiness?  The right to view the memories and the worthiness of that right.”

(Yes, I did say that.)

“…..”

(You need not look that way.  I was only a little surprised.)

Ian was full of suspicion.

Has it been overwhelmed by that look?

The dragon began to explain.

(OK.  As you have demonstrated your worthiness, I will grant you the power, equal to the powers of my kind’s race, or my kind’s most strong ally and teacher.  Right now.  From this moment forward.)

Ian just blinked his eyes although the dragon has finished speaking.  He thought it would continue.  For instance, maybe some form of ceremony, using the dragon’s language or some proclamation, etc.)

“….. Is it done?”

He waited endless, but it was the same.

He only felt the unique silence of the repository of time.

(What more do you need?)

“No, that’s not what I meant.”

He felt as if he was being played.

Yet, Ian kept his cool.

Instead, he spoke of things that he needed to ask.

Since I am worthy, I should know how to use it.

“How can it be used?”

(Use what?)

“To view the memories…..”

(Ask.)

“….. Beg your pardon?”

(If you ask, I will give you an answer.)

“…..”

Ian has lost for words.

Being played was not enough, have I been fooled as well?

(Do you want the spread of memories?  That is not beneficial to you.  You will not even be able to tolerate it.  Will you be able to handle the eternal time that spreads thousands of years?)

The dragon spoke in a very serious tone.

Well, it wasn’t an inappropriate explanation either.

After all, wouldn’t that be the memories of the dragon?

It was unknown whether he can tolerate it or not.

“….. Will you give an answer no matter what?”

(Yes.  You have proven your worthiness.)

“I understand.  Then first.”

The very first question to be asked.  If it was a Q&A session, then there was something that he must verify, rather than the spread of memories.

“Elixir.  If I was to drink that key again, will I meet you at that time as well?”

It wasn’t possible to ask all the questions in one day.

So the feasibility must be learned first.

That is, whether the entity is something that he can see at anytime.

(Evantus, my kind’s half breed descendant.  If the key was made whole by that child’s breath then it is possible at any time.  However, a key that was made complete by a descendant of another race, it would be a different story.  Keep that in mind.)

That is, if there were ingredients, he can always come back here at any time.

Ian asked the next question as his anxiousness subsided a bit.

“Among the ingredients of the key, there is the eye of a gargoyle.”

(Gargoyle.  Yes, I know.)

“Where can I find a gargoyle?”

(Hm?)

The dragon tilted his long head as that question was asked.

(Isn’t it a common creature?  As there were so many of them, they were the main culprits in destroying the balance of the nature.  So they were used as ingredients for the key.)

“….. That is not so in the present time.  I have only seen twice, I mean only once in all my life.  I’ve used the key with the eyes that I’ve obtained at that time.”

(That is unexpected…. Even for me.)

There were even some things that weren’t known to him.

It appeared as if he was being fooled after all.

‘It still remains.’

If there was a slight of good news from all of this, the quantity of gargoyle’s eyes needed to make the key was very small.  It was possible to make several more bottles with the remaining powder of the eyes.

‘Let me go on to the next topic for now.’

Ian calmed himself.  He verified what he needed to verify.  Although there were other things that he needed to ask, he was more concerned with what was happening in the outside world.  As a lot of time may have passed, even though he wasn’t certain.

‘I would inspect outside world first and return.’

Ian decided quickly.

He looked into the eyes of the dragon.

There was one thing that he wanted to find out even at the cost of saving other questions for later.

“What are you?”

(I believe I had answered that question on the first day.)

“I want to know your name, rather than simply as a spiritual form, or the repository of memory.”

(Name…..)

The dragon couldn’t respond readily.

Was it because it does not exist in the physical world.

It seemed somewhat uncomfortable.

That is, to say its name.

(My name is.)

Finally, its voice was heard.

(Reeses, Radenju.)

Reeses Radenju.

The name was familiar even to Ian.

The name that he had heard from the fairy queen.

That name was being relayed to his head.

One letter by one letter, they were clearly being inlaid.

(That is the name given to me.)
