I Obtained a Mythic Item

Episode 182 Fafnir (1)

“It’s dark anyway.”

Spaw!

Balak murmured as he slashed the enemy with the balmung he held in his hand.

In front was a reservoir.

It was full of stagnant water that had not been managed and had rotted away.

The three of them didn’t care at all.

Anyway, if it’s purification magic, I have it.

Finding drinking water or food was not difficult.

“by the way. I’ve never seen such a strong draug since I was born. Do you know anything?”

It was Balak’s question to Jaehyun.

Jaehyun shook his head.

“No at all.”

“As expected.”

My brow frowns without even realizing it. Jaehyun was also a part that I felt while fighting.

I didn’t feel that way when I was dealing with the Dark Elf a while ago. At some point, I realized that the monsters that appear are much stronger than their grade.

It is highly likely that the uniqueness of the dungeon had an effect on this.

‘You have to be careful. I don’t know what will happen when.’

Camilla also sighed and looked around.

“under. How did things get so twisted… Does this dungeon really have an end?”

A worrying question. But no one could answer.

‘We’ve been fighting for several hours already. And monsters of all kinds are appearing in a jumbled mess.’

Jaehyun was increasingly curious about Chae Jiyoon’s identity.

The ability to create gates.

I think it’s true that it has something to do with the Aesir god…

I haven’t been able to figure it out yet.

“There is a mountain over there.”

That was what Jaehyun said as he raised his head unexpectedly.

Camilla tilted her head.

“I know? It seems like there was nothing until just a moment ago… What is it all of a sudden?”

After walking a little further, a huge mountain was revealed that was hidden by rising water mist.

Judging from the plants growing naturally around them, at least they didn’t seem to be oriental.

‘Is it also transferred to a place related to Northern Europe?’

Jaehyun thought so and called out Balak, who was leading the way.

“From here on out, I’ll take the lead.”

Balak did not stop him.

All three of them are confused in an incomprehensible situation.

For now, it was better for Jaehyun, who knew even a little bit about Chae Jiyoon, to stand in front.

Even in normal dungeons, those who have good eyesight and are good at gathering information are always at the forefront.

“Then go.”

Saying that, Jaehyun walked through the raging wind toward the mountainside.

A place where deep magic power emanates.

It seemed like bingo.

―You have arrived at the depths of the Valley of Greed.

―Destroy the boss monster «Fafnir of Greed» and return to the original world.

Jaehyun’s eyes narrowed.

If it’s Fafnir…

‘Could it be that Fafnir I know?’

* * *

In Norse mythology, several objects symbolizing greed and gods and humans appear.

One of them is Fafnir.

It is the Dragon of Greed.

In the past, he was a dwarf, blinded by gold, killed his father, kicked out his second son Regin, and monopolized gold.

Thanks to this greed, he later turned into a dragon and guarded the gold alone in the mountains.

Perhaps at first, the valley of greed that the system spoke of was the place where he lived.

“Fafnir… if you’re talking about the dragon in that myth, it’s really dangerous.”

Balak murmured from behind. Camilla also agrees.

“that’s right. I’ve dealt with twinhead ogres and trolls a lot, but… to deal with a mythical dragon. I can’t even measure the grade.”

“Whatever you think, it’s likely more than that.”

After Jaehyun said calmly, he broke through the bushes and went inside.

Chae Ji-yoon said a while ago.

If you clear this place, you will be able to save people who are in a coma.

It was an obvious operation, but Jaehyun had no choice but to respond.

“You have to move quickly. I can’t let everyone die.”

Jaehyun hurriedly said that.

Camilla replied, biting her lip as if wondering.

“It feels so different from when I saw it in the great ruins…

Min Jae-hyeon. What is the real you?”

“Because everyone is ambivalent.”

After Jaehyun said that, he slowly moved into the forest.

The earth, imbued with soggy magic, seemed to hold onto his ankles, slowing his progress.

it’s near

Jaehyun, who intuitively found the location of the boss room, suddenly put his hand on his mouth.

“Shh.”

Balak and Camilla also quickly took their breath away at Jaehyun’s words and took a combat stance.

Jaehyun nodded.

“I think it must be that cave?”

In the direction Jaehyun pointed at, there was a small cave.

A size that seems quite small to be said to be a dragon.

However, it was clear that mana was flowing from the depths.

‘Perhaps Fafnir is in there.’

It wasn’t difficult to guess which rank it was.

Even in mythology, it was a monster that was evaluated as having the highest level of power.

At least an S-rank boss. no, it’s more than that

Jaehyun took the lead and stepped inside.

Voice message heard at that moment.

―You have found Fafnir’s nest.

Magical power and darkness suddenly poured out of the cave.

This instantly swallowed up Jaehyun and Balak Camilla at once.

“shit.”

A short, clear sound escaped Balak’s mouth.

I don’t think the fight will be easy.

The three of them were intuition almost at the same time.

* * *

“So. Are you able to handle Draupnir enough to control Fafnir’s power now?”

A blonde man sitting at the front of the auction house said with a smile.

Chae Ji-yoon shook her head as she looked at the bracelet floating in the air.

“It is still incomplete. Complete control is almost impossible.

Well, it won’t be difficult to hunt down both the opponent and the loser.”

“As expected, mythical artifacts are different. An item that can erase greed and open a ‘gate’.”

“Don’t covet. You got something better from him.”

“haha. is it?”

The male Joo-won said that as if it was not a big deal.

He came here after knowing that Chae Ji-yoon was trying to destroy the enemy.

I was willing to help if needed.

But if things were going smoothly, there was no reason for him to step out.

“Is my turn going to disappear?”

“It’s because I’m too competent. But carelessness is not allowed. The outdoor training camp… the appearance of the adversary there was hardly something a human could see.”

“Do you rarely give high ratings?”

The man was still smiling, but I was intrigued by Chae Ji-yoon’s evaluation.

Jiyoon Chae. She had a very low opinion of others.

In fact, Ballack and Camilla, who entered together a while ago. Didn’t he say that he was a loser even against the two S-class raiders?

The fact that she gave a good evaluation must mean that Jaehyun has a pretty useful corner.

“I want to stick with you.”

“I can’t kill you here anyway. Wouldn’t there be an opportunity at any time?”

“That’s right.”

He was quickly convinced.

The opponents of the prophecy cannot yet be killed directly due to the power of the prophecy.

“I mean ‘for the time being’ anyway.”

As Joo Won smiled and said, Chae Ji Yoon also smiled at the corner of his mouth.

The Aesir’s new plan to bring down the enemy.

This was the moment it started.

* * *

Fafnir’s nest was a damp and dark place.

This was a place full of skeletons and golden jewels.

A place commonly referred to as a dragon lair.

All kinds of valuables the dragon had collected were lined up. The three of them couldn’t help but sigh.

“There is a dragon rare in a place like this. As expected, Fafnir’s nest in mythology is different.”

These were Balak’s words.

Jaehyun shrugged his shoulders.

“It probably won’t be any different. Anyway, that’s Fafnir’s nest.”

Jaehyun said while looking at the oiled torches glistening around him.

In fact, he had a reason for saying this.

He had attacked countless other dungeons, but had never seen a place as luxurious as it is now.

No matter how you think about it, it is the biggest dungeon in your raider career.

Jaehyun thought this place was worthy of the reputation of Fafnir.

“Fafnir. I guess he’s… strong, right?”

“of course.”

Balak took Camilla’s words.

It was natural. Considering Fafnir’s fame in mythology, it’s even more strange to think that his power would be weak.

After a while.

As they searched for the shady dragon lair, dragon beasts protruded along with countless gold coins and attacked the three.

However, they weren’t that difficult.

Jaehyun broke through to the deepest part of the rarity at once, cutting down the monsters blocking his way.

and not long after

The three of them arrived in front of a huge iron door that appeared to be the boss room.

The door was already slightly open.

Jaehyun went inside without hesitation. Balak asked.

“Is the boss not here?”

The surroundings were filled with countless gold and treasures piled up like a mountain.

Jaehyun shook his head.

“no. This is right.”

That moment.

Kwak!

The ceiling collapsed and sharp claws appeared from somewhere and flew towards them.

Jaehyun rolled his body to dodge the attack and raised the corner of his mouth.

message at the same time.

―The dungeon boss 《Fafnir》 appears.

―I encountered an S+ grade boss monster for the first time!

deepest center.

There, Jaehyun and Balak Camilla finally met Fafnir.

The boss monster of this dungeon and one of the most powerful dragons in mythology.

[Kuaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!]

With the roar, Balak and Camilla felt their bodies froze.

The condensed magic power burst out from within and began climbing through their bodies.

“What is this… How can a monster of this level!”

“This is nonsense!”

Two rough voices.

However, Jaehyun calmed them down with a calm expression.

“you can do it. So stay calm.”

‘Now there’s no need to hide it.’

Jaehyun took out the long sword in his hand and calmed himself down.

Balak’s eyes narrowed. Soon the color returned to his face.

“……So there’s a corner to believe in.”

With those words, Camilla stunned and looked at the two of them alternately.

“Balmung…?”

“I’m lucky this time.”

Saying that, Jaehyun put strength into his sword.

―Active skill 《Formation of magic tools》 is activated.

―《Dragon Sword Balmung (S)》 has been produced.

Fortunately, an S-class artifact like Balak’s was produced through the shaping of magic tools.

Jaehyun glanced at Balak.

“Two bags of balmung. Wouldn’t even an S+ rank boss do something about this?”

“……surely. I don’t know if I can.”

Saying that, Balak quickly took out the Balmung and held it in his hand.

Enormous magical energy began to rise from the unshakable tip of the sword.

―The special effect of the dragon slayer Balmung is activated.

―The passive skill 《Dragon Slayer》 is activated.

―All attacks against polyps are added by 300%.

At the same time with the pouring system sound.

Two swords aimed at one dragon.
